Cultivate Mutual Love

938.01Question: How do we work correctly when revealing differences in impressions and perceptions? Should we leave them as they are, perceive them as a wealth of impressions, or argue and prove to each other what is better and what is right?

Answer: Focus only on the love between you. Will it be such that the Creator appears in it? Between us, we must form a quality similar to the Creator and then He will be revealed in it. The quality revealed between us should be mutual love. Let us try to connect so that the Creator can appear to us.

Breaking away from the Ground like a Rocket

935Question: When a person wants to become Israel, but realizes that the body does not let them work for bestowal, what do they turn to the Creator with? What do they ask for? Is it to adhere to the friends to receive a new deficiency?

Answer: If a person’s deficiency (Hisaron) increases, will they have more opportunities to come to bestowal, to progress? Of course not. They will not be able to progress, even with the lack they currently have.

Therefore, we expect a greater connection between us and an aspiration toward the goal. Then, we can hope that we can cry out to the Creator in such a way as to become capable of rising above our initial state. That is the hardest thing—to break away from the ground like a rocket.

Question: What does the most minimal but common deficiency in the ten mean? How do we come to it?

Answer: By despising your egoism and trying to break away from it by any means.

Feel Your Friends’ Desires

934Question: In order to be in the intention to bestow, do you have to feel the Hisaron for that desire?

Answer: You need to feel the Hisaron (the need) to feel your friends’ desires, absorb their aspirations, and raise a prayer for them.

Question: You said if one does not ask the Creator correctly, a person may not reach final correction.
How do I ask the Creator correctly?

Living by the Laws of the Torah

208Question: What does it mean to live by the laws of the Torah?

Answer: Everything we should receive from the Torah is intended solely to help us live better.

Question: When the Torah helps people, they fulfill the commandments. But how can one check whether the Torah is helping them or if they are performing actions of bestowal to receive?

Answer: One must progress further and gradually will begin to see.

Question: Is it possible to reach a state where the Torah constantly protects you on the path so that you are always in joy and ascent?

Answer: We cannot achieve the ideal state because we are not in final correction (Gmar Tikkun), but gradually get closer to it.

The Creator Understands Everything

294.4Question: Should I feel guilt for not observing a commandment and ask for forgiveness from the Creator? Or will efforts in the work be a better apology?

Answer: Generally, both are good. You don’t have to apologize, you just need to feel your mistakes. That is already good. The Creator understands everything.

At the same time you should have a sense of guilt, but one that does not hold you back in your development.

212Question: What does it mean to learn the ways of the Creator?

Answer: It means to learn the correct ascent toward the goal of creation.

Question: The Torah was given to us for the sake of attaining unity, so we need to constantly strive to unite with soul and heart. How can we transition from an individual approach to mutual connection to unity in the ten?

Answer: With the help of the upper light that unites us and affects our connection. In this way, we begin to feel ourselves as one common whole and feel what this evokes in us.

Question: What does it mean that the Torah will teach a person? Why doesn’t a person learn, but the Torah teaches him? It feels like the Torah is active, and the student is passive.

Answer: Yes, a person simply opens himself to the influence of the upper light, the influence of which is called the Torah. And a person acquires an understanding of what he is doing and where he is ascending.

Question: We are approaching the women’s congress. It is as if we are at the finish line, but internally we are sleeping. What is the importance of this day? We are all worried about what is happening in the world and here is such a chance. How do we not miss this chance?

Answer: We have such a chance every day. Pray, ask in any words.
