Question: In spirituality, we must start working before we gain strength. What kind of strength are we talking about?

Answer: We must do spiritual work, even if we do not have the strength—unite with each other or do something for the sake of others, for the sake of bestowal. We ask for strength, even though we have no idea how to do it.

Question: It says that the material order already corresponds to the final correction. How can the order in corporeality correspond to the final correction if everything is not corrected?

Answer: In corporeality, strength precedes action, and in spirituality, action precedes strength. But yet this is not tangible to us, and not entirely clear.

Question: How can one find a balance between spirituality and corporeality to avoid deviating too much in either direction?

Answer: If you think only about spirituality, you can do whatever you want in corporeality.

Question: When we gather together for workshops and various events, how do we understand that we have attracted the reforming light?

Answer: If you connect with each other and in your common desire strive together toward the Creator, then what you receive from this is a consequence of your common Kli, a common soul. We must strive for this.

Question: At this stage, we seem to be rubbing our hearts, trying to open up to each other, meaning, to become like one soul.

Will there come a time when we will have to weigh every word and action?

Answer: Do not think about the future. Think about what should be now; open your hearts to each other.

Question: What is the correct support when it comes to the left line? Is it that a person checks his true state?

Answer: The left line is a line of self–criticism in which we keep an open mind about our state and scrutinize it.

Therefore, before turning on the left line, a person should check himself well and position himself correctly. Only then can he look at what is happening through the left line.

Question: How can I convey love to my friends in the left line?

Answer: Despite the fact that you are inclined to criticize them, try to convey your love to them.

Question: What is this state when there is a desire to move from one ten to another? If there is a flaw here, what is it, and how should we treat it?

Answer: You should treat it negatively. A person who is in a ten can only increase his or her bestowal to the same ten.

Question: It is easier for me to connect and justify the ten in my thoughts than to participate in a virtual meeting because there I feel the rejection. What is the problem?

Answer: The problem is that you do not want to perform a spiritual action in your connection with the ten. Try to work for the sake of bestowal. It does not really matter how it turns out. You cannot check it yet, but it will work out eventually.

Question: How can you understand that during a workshop the ten brought contentment to the Creator, and did not just amuse their egos?

Answer: It depends on how it feels about what it discovers, either the state of faith above reason or reason above faith.

Question: Let’s say a person comes to a state that he evaluates as bad, but at the same time he justifies the Creator.

What is the difference between simply justifying the Creator and faith above reason?

Answer: Faith above reason is a way to connect with the Creator. And the justification of the Creator is an action that leads a person to faith above reason, to connection with the Creator.

Question: If I am in a bad state, it is understandable. And when I am in good state, what does it mean to justify the Creator?

Answer: You are already justifying if you are in a good state.

Question: How do we come to a state that the words of the Torah stay in the heart?

Answer: If your heart is not connected to other’s hearts, keeping what comes from the Creator is impossible.

To distinguish whether it is connected with the hearts of your friends, you must constantly check for yourself what you are studying, and then you will know.

Question: What does it add to a person if he discovers “carving” on the tablets of the others’ hearts?

Answer: He discovers how the Creator helps others, and this gives him the strength to ask the Creator to help him.

“My heart is Halal [hollow/slain] within me,” and then he is awarded freedom from the angel of death (Baal HaSulam, Shamati 178, “Freedom“).

Question: What is this state of “my heart is hollow within me”?

Answer: A hollow heart means that a person cannot fill it with good deeds.

Question: If we are grateful for the teacher and for the friends, are these good deeds?

Answer: These are good deeds, and they will keep you in spirituality so that you do not fall.

Question: In our work together, do we attain first everything revealed to us by the great Kabbalists and then are rewarded with the concealed part of the Torah? Or does it happen in parallel gradually?

Answer: No, first we attain what we can with our efforts and mind, and then through the connection between us, we reveal more.

Question: At what point does the soul begin to teach us? After all, we only have a germ of a soul.

Answer: It does not matter. The germ is what is revealed to us. We receive everything through the soul.

Question: What is the danger of premature revelation of the secrets of the Torah to a person? Or is it impossible at all?

Answer: Firstly, it is impossible. Secondly, it would just confuse a person.

Question: If while living in the physical world, I have no opportunity to attend lessons, but I have a strong desire, like someone is pulling me toward spirituality, then is it the soul teaching me or the Creator pulling me?

Answer: It is the soul.

Question: What should we come to at the current degree to focus on the next one?

Answer: To unity, unite as if you have everything in common without disagreement.
