Finish the Work of Previous Generations

962.4Question: To what extent does how deeply we can understand the teacher and accept his methodology depend on us?

Answer: You need to accept that the implementation of the methodology you are studying depends on you and only on you.

Therefore, as long as you get closer to each other and unite more strongly with each other, you will be able to rise above the conditions that are set for you in order to achieve the goal of creation.

We are not that far from it. We just need to put our hearts and minds in order. We do not have much work left after what the previous great generations have already done.

In order to organize the heart and mind, we must overcome the little natural rejection that still remains in us and ensure that our hearts connect. Then the upper light will enter into them, and from this feeling we will attain everything.

What Is the Greatness of the Creator?

610.2Question: The fact that everything comes from the Creator is clear; this is the law: He created the universe and rules in it. But what is the greatness of the Creator?

Answer: The greatness of the Creator is that He restricted Himself in all cases and reveals Himself to us from such low, small, lowly states in our eyes so that we can raise Him in our imagination and thoughts to the highest degree.

But the further we go, the more we see how insignificant He seems to us. Therefore we forget about Him and neglect Him.

The main thing for us is just to raise Him to the highest degree, the degree where He really is and which we are able to see.

Question: If we reveal the greatness of the Creator, will we be able to love Him without egoism?

Answer: Yes, we will. Only the greatness of the Creator, which we wish to reach, will raise us to the highest degree. As it is said: He will raise a beggar from the dust. That is, He will be able to lift us from the lowest depths.

Connection in One Heart

929Question: When I am in a state where I need nothing but unification, does my ego automatically annul?

Answer: The ego never automatically annuls. It is only due to consistent actions carried out by all of you that are specifically based on the unity that you find yourselves in one heart.

Question: Is the connection between friends a connection between souls?

Answer: Yes, the Creator provides this connection. He glues together parts of souls that were dismantled after the breakage of Adam’s soul, and gives them the opportunity to reconnect.

What Should We Think and Ask For?

243.07Hence, one needs to pray pleadingly that the Creator will show him the truth by adding to him the light of the Torah (Baal HaSulam, Shamati 47 “In the Place Where You Find His Greatness”).

Question: It turns out that a person asks the Creator to reveal the truth to him, meaning, his evil inclination. This is a prayer from the left line. Is such a prayer correct?

Answer: No, we must ask the Creator to reveal the truth to us and shed light on our present state.

We need to relate all states, whatever they may be, to the Creator and try to see through them how the Creator wants to bring us closer to Him.

We need to reveal a constant connection with the Creator. That is what we have to think about and ask for.

Answer: You can pray for you to get closer to your friends and through them to the Creator.

Question: What is annulment in desires, intentions, and actions?

Answer: Annulment means that I don’t want anything for myself, but I really want to get closer to the Creator and fill everyone with love.

It Is Commanded to Be in Joy in Spirituality

572.02Question: It is said that a person should pray to the Creator to help him be above reason, and his work should be in joy as if he had been awarded spiritual reason.

But when I am in joy there is some fear that I will start to receive for myself.

How can I overcome the fear of being in joy?

Answer: Why are you afraid to be in joy? On the contrary, it is a huge commandment. It is necessary to be in this state all the time and not fall from the level of joy that the Creator created you. It brings you closer to Him, and gives you a feeling of coming closer and connecting with Him.
