Question: When you try to direct pleasure to the Creator, for some reason the pleasure itself disappears and it is unclear what to direct after all. What should I do in such a situation?

Answer: It is natural that pleasure disappears because you and the Creator do not yet have the same concept of pleasure from the same action or object.

Thus, when you think about how you can pass pleasure to the Creator, your pleasure disappears. This suggests that you are still in absolute egoism.

If they understood the value of peace, they would be happy to adopt the conduct of life in the last generation, for “all that a man has will he give for his life” (Baal HaSulam, “Peace in the World“).

Question: What meaning did the author put into the words “that a person will give everything for his life”?

Answer: For a person, there is nothing more precious than life. But if we knew that there is something more precious than life, we would go for it.

We must understand that the thing that is more precious than our life is upper life. This is the meaning of what is written.

Question: How do we work correctly with the circumstances of the outside world that arise for a friend in the ten? Do we put some kind of barrier or, conversely, include them in ourselves?

Answer: You should come closer to your friends as much as possible, be more united, and from the connection with them, raise a prayer to the Creator so that He will bring you all closer to Him. Then, you will begin to feel the Creator closer and closer, and you will have the opportunity to talk to Him.

Question: How can we imagine that we exist only in the Creator?

Answer: You must imagine that all thoughts and desires will come to you entirely from the Creator.

Question: When we are united, the Creator is in the connection between us. But how can we ask Him to hear us when we are at war with each other?

Answer: We have repeatedly said that everything depends only on our connection, first of all between Jews so that they become like one man with one heart.

Then, we will want to bring all people in the world closer to this, and through this connection; we will avoid all the troubles that are arising now and that keep approaching all of humanity.

Question: In relation to the events that are taking place in the world now, I have revealed a lot of evil in myself, and on the other hand, all my friends are righteous. There is a big difference between us. What is my further work to become like my friends?

Answer: Rise above our differences between each other, unite, and embrace each other whatever our problems may be.

Imagine that these problems come to us from the Creator; there is none else but Him. And despite this, we embrace, unite, and want to be as one whole. This is our job.

Question: If the right line is perfection and the left one is imperfection, then what qualities should we take from the right line?

Answer: The Creator himself will lead you to the left line. All the bad will be there: rejection from friends, criticism of the group, etc. And in the right line, on the contrary, there will be everything that brings you closer to each other and to the Creator.

Question: If the right line is perfect, what is the middle line for?

Answer: The right line comes from above. We create the middle line from the left and right.
