There Are no Personal Hardships

544Question: How can overcoming personal hardships strengthen the ten?

Answer: Personal hardships should be included in the ten; otherwise, you will not be able to escape from them.

A person has no personal hardships; they all arise only from the fact that there is no common desire in the ten to be one whole.

Explicit Help from the Creator

263In order for the Creator’s help to be apparent, the level of revelation of evil by a person must be such that he understands that he is in a state of evil and that he has no other choice but to ask and beg the Creator to save him.

He must truly ask until all his aspirations, tears, and desires accumulate in the Creator, and then the Creator will help him.

When a person reveals the real need for true help, then he will feel that he receives it.

The World Is a Continuous Unity

275Question: Can I be happy about unity in the world even if I do not feel it?

Answer: Try to imagine that the world is a continuous unity, and we are all in complete correction, in connection with each other in one heart.

Try it, and will see that you are already starting to feel it. Ask the Creator to make you feel it, ask to be closer to Him. And so it will gradually happen.

But the best thing is when the whole ten asks for it.

Questions about Spiritual Work—17

294.2Question: How is the memory of past states of ascent and descent useful to us, and how do we use it correctly?

Answer: We have experience, and therefore it is good that we do not forget past states. We can apply them to present states and anticipate future ones. This is how we learn.

Question: How is the Creator’s humility manifested?

Answer: By the fact that everything comes from Him, but He conceals Himself.

Question: Is it possible to be in constant striving for faith above reason?

Answer: You cannot be in it all the time, but you should strive for it every time you have such an opportunity.

Question: How can we direct our connection to unity with the Creator?

Answer: Everyone should turn together from every heart to the Creator, and you need nothing else.

Troubles Turn into a Positive

276.03Question: It is said: “The troubles of the righteous are numerous.” What troubles are meant? Are they only those that our evil reveals or also material ones?

Answer: It is everything that we can be dissatisfied with in life. After all, what we see as negative is manifested only because of our egoism.

At first it seems like problems to a person, and then he justifies it because they help him to rise to the degree of connection with his friends and the Creator. In this case he is called righteous, from the word “justify” the Creator.

If we strive to the Creator in the desire to become like Him, then we must see only the good and the kind. In this way we will come to connection.

When together we wholeheartedly ask the Creator to correct us, then He will do it, and the troubles will end. We will see that we are absolutely happy in connection with each other and with the Creator.

Faith Is Born from the Connection

938.01Question: In order to justify everything, we lack faith. Do we get faith from the Torah or is it born as a result of our connection?

Answer: Faith is the upper light that gives us the opportunity to rise above our egoism and justify the Creator. Faith is born out of our connection.

We must come to justify the Creator completely, in everything that we have, in knowledge and in feelings, in the heart and in the mind.

Hold the Connection between Each Other

528.01Question: How do we use reception of the light from the Creator to build a stronger connection in the ten and at the same time not crush it with light?

Answer: Don’t be afraid for the light. Be afraid that you will not have a connection with the ten. And in order to keep this connection, you need to ask all the time, without stopping.

At the same time, everyone must give himself. Try to link your desires and your requests together into one whole, and then you will receive the Creator’s answer in the same desire.

Questions about Spiritual Work—16

534Question: When we feel that we have no strength to overcome, what can help us break through in prayer?

Answer: Only the help of the friends can help because the Creator responds only to the common desire, to the prayer of many.

Question: Does a ten have a common ego?

Answer: Yes.

Question: It can be difficult to talk about something sincerely, for example, that you are inferior to everyone or that you love the friends. What if we say the right words, but we do not feel it in our heart? How important is sincerity?

Answer: Even if you just say the words and do not feel them in your heart yet, it also works.

Question: Can prayer harm the one we are praying for if he has not yet reached the true intention?

Answer: No.
