Question: When spiritual and material desires are so intermixed that it is hard to distinguish them, what should we do about it?

Answer: I think this will gradually sort itself out and you will see which desires are spiritual and which are material.

Question: It seems material desires are pulling spiritual desires along with them. Is this an illusion?

Answer: No, this is indeed so. Material desires gradually turn into spiritual ones.

Do not worry, it will all be corrected.

Question: What is the difference between physical and spiritual fear? Physical fear is my instant reaction; how can I move to spiritual fear with the same speed?

Answer: To do this, you need to be connected with your friends so that you learn from each other how to provide yourself with confidence so that fear cannot paralyze you. It is very important.

Question: Can my individual fear shift to the ten, and then we will not be able to thank the Creator?

Answer: It does not matter. Fear comes from the Creator who gives it to everyone to the extent and in the form you need to experience it and rise above. But in general, everyone must go through this fear.

Question: We all have different perceptions of reality. Should we strive to make it one and the same in the ten?

Answer: We should only strive to ensure that we all strive toward the Creator and support each other. And everything else is as it turns out.

Question: By connecting our hearts, can we see reality through the eyes of a friend without distorting it with our qualities?

Answer: To do this, you need to neutralize your egoism and connect with your friend in his desire. This is the right connection, and we must strive for it.

Question: If I see a friend who is angry, or is in fear for himself, or is offended by others or the Creator, what is the action of connecting with him on my part?

Answer: Calm him down, hug him, draw him to you, and take a couple of steps forward with him.

Question: While working in the ten on faith above reason, it turns out that someone has a small stone (faith above reason), someone has a big one (reason), some can rise, some cannot. Why is that?

Answer: Because you are all different. Each of you has your own stone. But by working together, you strive to unite in order to lift one common stone.

Question: So everyone must do this with the strength of all?

Answer: No, each with their own strength. You always have the strength to work correctly with faith and not even entertain the thought that it is something difficult. You must understand what you receive from the Creator and move toward closeness with Him.

“Lily among the thorns” is finer than all the other lilies in the world because the pricks, meaning the sufferings she suffers from the wicked, cause him to receive new powers from above each time, and by this, his soul grows (Rabash, Article No. 22, 1991, “What Is ‘A Lily Among the Thorns,’ in the Work?”)

Question: On the spiritual path, we constantly encounter thorns that disturb us and distract us from our connection with the Creator. What is it that becomes a rose as a result of our work?

Answer: The rose symbolizes Malchut, which we comprehend in the best possible way precisely because we make our way to it through the thorns. Malchut is our common desire, which reveals the Creator to us.

Question: Is this rose (Malchut) given to us as a gift from the Creator or due to our efforts?

Answer: No, this is our egoistic desire, which we correct from all egoistic intentions, and then what remains is a pure rose.

When Malchut merges with Keter and there is no difference between them, a person is included in the Creator in wholeness, which is one’s correct goal.

Question: Do we have to force ourselves to activate a loving heart to realize what we have received from the Creator?

Answer: Of course, but how do we feel what we receive from Him? In our normal mode, the heart is not engaged. Therefore, at every moment of our existence we must determine where we are relative to the Creator, receive an answer, and move on.

We need to open ourselves to the Creator as much as possible, and based on this, we will know what our actions should be.

Question: What prevents us from set the desire for unification ablaze? What do we need to cancel in ourselves?

Answer: Your ego. Only the ego is holding us back.

Question: When a person is in a state of ascent and rises to connection with his friends, he must transfer this connection to the Creator. What does it mean that he returns to his memories, to his descent, to his evaluation? How does he analyze from this state?

Answer: He does not fall into this state. It is as if he is checking this state based on a real feeling of how far he is falling or rising relative to the Creator.

He adds his Kelim to this request, as it were, and then the Creator shows him where he is now.

Question: As a result of the lesson, I need to come to the conclusion that is it my duty to analyze in which direction my feelings are directed?

Answer: Your feelings should be directed only at the Creator through your friends.

Question: Love is a quality of joy. Is it possible to call it faith?

Answer: No, these are completely different categories.

Question: Is it possible to live without fear if you believe everything around you is love and there is nothing to fear, and from that, you experience joy?

Answer: Yes, but you have to figure out why you are doing this. Is it, perhaps, for the reason to escape fear?
