Question: If the ten pray together and receive a response from the Creator, should we say that the ten did the work or that the Creator did a good deed for the ten?

Answer: No, the request comes from below, from the person or the ten, and the Creator responds from above through the ten and perhaps directly to each individual.

Question: In our harsh world, there is a feeling that all of us have hearts of stone.

But we so deeply want to ask the Creator to make these hearts soft, like clay, from which we could sculpt a vessel and connect. What can make our hearts soft, collective, and unified?

Answer: The light of the Creator; if He influences us with His light, we will instantly turn into very soft lumps of clay that are able to unite with one another and we will feel Him within us.

Question: We learn that the most powerful prayer is in the ten. How can I draw the power of the ten into my prayer when I ask for them?

Answer: When you invest in your friends in the ten, they can help you to the same extent. But if you don’t, in a way you separate yourself from them. Then what can you demand?

When you ask for them, you can draw the power of the ten into your prayer only if you have a certain preparation and connection with each other.

Question: How do you understand what you are stealing in spirituality if we have one common Kli there?

Answer: No, besides that, there is a settlement with everyone.

Question: But how to understand that I am stealing now?

Answer: You have to start feeling it.

Question: Is this some effort that I am not putting in?

Answer: No, not necessarily. This is primarily what you can take from others.

Question: It turns out that if I do not have a clear intention to steal from others, then I cannot be said to be stealing?

Answer: It is not that easy. Maybe you want to overtake your friend in this, do something first, and so on.

Question: But that does not stop me from thinking that it is not worth being too active, because in that case I am stealing? Does that not stop you?

Answer: No, this is not true.

Question: Then how do I make the calculation?

Answer: Help your friends.

Question: When a person prays for their friends and feels pleasure from this process, what is this state? And how can this pleasure be conveyed to the Creator and to others?

Answer: You should thank the Creator for giving you such responses in the form of pleasure and try to learn from Him how to ensure that your actions also bring Him delight.

Question: How can one learn to do this?

Answer: Observe what the Creator does to bring you pleasure, then do the same for Him with the hope that He will be delighted.

Question: We can experience the Shechina in the dust through our relationships with others, especially when there is some sense of detachment from them. This can be felt as both a punishment and a reward. What is the reward? How does the Creator help people by giving them the sensation of dust?

Answer: The reward is that a person is brought closer to even greater darkness. They enter a deeper state of insignificance, worthlessness, and inability to act, which leads them to the point where all they can do is cry out to the Creator. But it is precisely this cry that liberates them from the captivity of egoism.

Question: Is there any way to avoid the taste of dust in the work of bestowal?

Answer: No, there is not.

Question: What change should I feel when I raise my prayer?

Answer: You should feel that the Creator responds to your prayer, lifts you a little toward Him, and you understand more where you are, with whom you are connected, and how you can take part in the general correction.

Question: But at the same time am I asking not for myself, but for the entire soul?

Answer: Yes, but you are involved in it; it comes from you, so everything is credited to your account.

Question: We mainly work in the ten, and I first focus on my friends. How can I switch from my friends in the ten to the entire soul?

Answer: We do not quite understand how this is done yet, but we will get there. We only need to master this path when a person, based on his small egoistic desire, receives an impetus, rises closer to the Creator, tries to contact Him, and asks to use all his spiritual desires, his entire soul in this connection.

Question: Are all my spiritual desires something that also applies to my friends?

Answer: Yes.

The reason those people agreed to unite into a single group that engages in love of friends is that each of them feels that they have one desire that can unite all their views, so as to receive the strength of love of others (Rabash, Article 8 “Make for Yourself a Rav and Buy Yourself a Friend – 2”).

The Creator gathers such souls from all over the world. We see how people suddenly find us, start listening, organize, unite, and come to conventions. This happens under the influence of the upper light, which draws ever closer to us. As a result, we gradually rise like sprouts from the earth.

This is how the article “The Flower Buds” in The Book of Zohar begins: “The flower buds have appeared in the land.” This is how the souls grow.

People are given the desire to unite into a group and an explanation that this is necessary for them to come closer to each other up to the point of loving one another. In our world, the word “love” has become so worn out that it manifests as something purely egoistic.

But when we begin to apply this concept to our friends, we start from the premise that we are one soul. There can be no greater connection between individual souls than when we unite into one integral whole. The general program of creation drives us toward this.

Question: The Creator gave us a group, a ten. If everything is good, well-established, and comfortable in it, is this proof of our connection with the Creator? How can we strengthen this connection?

Answer: You can strengthen the connection only by working together as one person with one heart, and all your thoughts and desires will be directed to bestowing something to the Creator.

What is there between you that you can give to Him? Raise your requests to Him.

Question: What practical actions do we need to take in order to create a Kli capable of receiving the royal gift of spiritual pleasure?

Answer: Unite with each other, be as close to each other as possible, and ask Him to connect and fill you even more.

Comment: You said that our movement follows the law of “negation of negation.” So past experience does not help us and turns into a  Klipa.                    .

My Response: This is intended for you to annul yourself before your friends and before the Creator. When you annul yourself, it becomes clear to you how to act.

Question: How does the popular quote work here: “There is none so wise as the experienced”?

Answer: When you annul yourself before your friends and before the Creator, you begin to understand how to make a new state from the past one. It is only by annulling yourself! Then the upper light will create a new state in you.

Question: You say that we only need to change our intention. Is the quality of the intention either zero or 100 percent?

Answer: The entire system is calibrated precisely in intentions. The ladder (Sulam) is a constantly changing intention over our egoistic desires in strength and quality.

Question: If I just belittle myself before my friends, then pride may cling to me. Is it correct instead to annul oneself to raise your friends in your eyes?

Answer: How will you raise them if you do not have the strength?

Question: I should ask the Creator to give me the importance of the friends.

Answer: Okay, but you will not raise them by that. Try it. See for yourself how it works.

Question: Is what is essential, not the action, but why I do it? I should want to see my friends big and not myself small?

Answer: Yes, indeed.
