Question: We feel a great need for connection and a great desire to ask with all our might for our common correction and for freedom from egoism. How can we accelerate this movement?

Answer: Imagine that now we have the opportunity to get closer to each other more than usual and to attract the Creator. Ask and beg Him to join in our connection too.

We would like to make our connection absolutely good, mutual in form and content so that the Creator can fully be revealed in it and enjoy what we offer to Him.

And we would perceive His revelation in us as the Shechina, as an absolute, comfortable, pleasant revelation of Himself to His creations. That is why He created us.

Question: It is unclear how a person can run away from the Creator since we know that the Creator is hiding, and we are chasing Him. Is this a very high degree?

Answer: A person runs away from some signs of attention and privileges from the Creator. He feels that this fame can harm him, and therefore moves away from it.

He wants only one thing—to declare the Creator great and a ruler of the entire universe. Therefore, he does not want anything for himself.

Question: If I carry a state of rejection to the ten, how do we work within the ten without falling into the left line and making it worse if the friends have a similar state?

Answer: Add up your states with the rest and achieve a positive effect.

Question: Why is it important to state the intention before the lesson? When I hear my friends, my heart opens. What happens when everyone says the intention and comes to the lesson with it?

Answer: You get a common intention. You connect with each other, and it means a lot. You open a common Kli, vessel.

Question: When we meet with other tens, we interconnect, open up to each other, unite, and feel great inspiration as if the Creator is between us. At our ten meetings, it all goes away and is erased as if we are shy and do not appreciate each other. How do we work with it?

Answer: The Creator shows you that you are not trying to keep yourself in a state of unity with each other all of the time. It is bad. There must be the importance of friends.

Question: It happens that during the lesson the head is empty and does not want to think, and the heart is full of love for friends, for the world Kli, for you, and for the Creator. Is this a normal state?

Answer: The normal state is when both are included in the work and you feel very close to each other.

It is as we say (In the Eighteen in the Supplementary Prayer of Rosh Hashanah), “Our Father, our King, reveal the glory of Your kingdom upon us,” namely that the kingdom of heaven will not be to us as dust, but rather glorified.

It follows that what this kind of people demands of the Creator is that He will reveal to them the glory of His kingship, and have nothing with the Creator since they do not require any reward from the Creator. Rather, all they want is to serve the King and please Him. They ask that the Creator will show them the glory of the kingdom of heaven (Rabash, Article No. 34 (1985), “And I Pleaded with the Lord”).

Question: If people want only to serve the Creator, why do they demand that He reveal the glory of His kingdom to them?

Answer: It is exactly so that they could serve Him. If the Creator is concealed, we will not be able either come closer to Him or serve Him in any way. He will look small or non-existant in our eyes.

Therefore, we need Him to reveal Himself at least a little. To this extent, we will be able to serve Him.
This is why we say, “Reveal the glory of Your kingdom upon us so that we can honor You and serve You.”

Question: How can He reveal His glory?

Answer: It is His business how to do it. We ask because we cannot do it without it. If He does not reveal Himself, we will not have the strength either to bestow to Him or to receive from Him.

Receiving from Him is even more difficult than bestowing because when I receive, I use my egoistic desires. I have to correct them and use them only for bestowal. Then my reception will be for the sake of bestowal, and this is very hard work. We are always tempted to fall into receiving for ourselves.

Question: If we do not want to receive from the Creator and make the restriction on reception, then what are we holding on to? What is the criterion of the connection with Him?

Answer: We hold on to the fact that we want to give Him contentment. At the same time, we enjoy His greatness and not the actual fulfillment from Him.

Question: What is the difference?

Answer: Our egoistic desires to receive seek to enjoy the fulfillment. But to enjoy His greatness is when we feel His greatness in all the worlds, in the whole world, and enjoy it; that is, we enjoy the fact that we belong to Him.

Question: People with a point in the heart want to reveal the Creator as good, as Who created and controls us. Will people without a point in the heart come to such a revelation?

Answer: Yes. Everything we do within ourselves and between us is absorbed by a common desire. Therefore, all those living on earth are imbued with a common fulfillment that we want to awaken.

As a result, we will come to a state where the common desire will be revealed, and the Creator will be manifested in it as the only one who fills it.

Question: Does it mean it is possible to push other people to the revelation of the Creator?

Answer: Yes, we are obliged to push each other toward the Creator. It is very difficult for a person to come to the Creator by himself. But if others push him, he will come to this easily and quickly.

Question: In the group, we live inside different, dynamic states. What does make an effort to make a King over us mean?

Answer: You must elevate the Creator in your eyes so much that He becomes in your mind the only one who controls absolutely all of nature, including, of course, yours. Then you will always be in connection with Him.

Question: Let us say we have accepted the Creator in our hearts as a ruler, as a King. How can we work in this state?

Answer: Connect with each other to such an extent that the Creator is between you. Try to find the Creator in yourself, feel how He controls you, and you will feel it.

Question: The Creator loves me, but at the same time He torments me. We feel the most painful and massive suffering at the level of our world. There is a great desire for them to become “sufferings of love” where I want to connect with the friends and feel them as myself, but I cannot. How can we move from corporeal suffering to spiritual suffering of love?

Answer: It depends on you which sufferings are big and which are small. Take the Creator by the hand and bring Him to a friend who is ill, so that He can calm him down and heal him. Try to be more realistic about things, and do not just say: “I pray… I think…”. You lack a more real attitude.

Question: How can you combine self-annulment before a friend where you are the smallest one, and at the same time bring him to the Creator?

Answer: For this action, you are the smallest. But with the help of this action, you are the biggest. This is what is said about Moses: He felt and placed himself below everyone, and therefore was above everyone.
