Question: How can we love people correctly in order to be worthy of the love of the Creator?

Answer: You must constantly convince yourself that to the extent that you are like the Creator in His attitude toward people, to that extent you will be close to Him. This is called the law of similarity of properties.

First, we are talking about love for the ten. To do this everyone in their ten must try to behave as they imagine the Creator behaves and demands the same from him or her. Gradually, a person will develop a feeling of the friends in his aspirations toward them, and the properties of the Creator, His love, and His qualities will be revealed in him.

Question: By loving our friends, we feel the love of the Creator. Is it the same love?

Answer: This is not the same love, not the same feelings, but gradually one will be combined with the other.

Question: There is no time in the spiritual, i.e., we enjoy the present, past, and future as a a whole. Could my purpose in our world be to see it all as one whole?

Answer: It depends on the person, to what extent one feels one’s state, to what extent one can divide it into past, present, and future, and to what extent one is with one’s friends, and through them, can pass his sensations.

Question: What will help a person who seems to have lost the ability to dream and imagine the state of bestowing to the Creator?

Answer: Relax a little by reading Kabbalistic books and participate in what you can. There are ascents and descents; everything goes in a sine wave.

Question: You said that there is a lack of connection between the tens. We mostly focus on connection within the ten. What is connection between tens?

Answer: The connection between tens should be like the connection between all people: each one shall help his friend. But for one ten to help another, we need the upper force, the Creator, to whom we pray to take care of the other ten. This is what we can do, as it is said: “He who prays for his friend receives first.” Therefore, by turning to the Creator with a request to take care of a certain ten, we will feel how this works on us.

Question: How do we build this work correctly? For example, which ten should my ten take care of?

Answer: Tens that are close to you both linguistically and geographically.

Question: So should each ten take care of another ten?

Answer: No, it is not about taking care of them in a way that helps them rise. On the contrary, by helping them, you yourself ascend and become more similar to the Creator.

Question: We learn that when my Kelim (Vessels) are corrected, I will see my friends as corrected, right?

Answer: Yes. Everything negative you perceive in the world—people, the group, yourself, or anything else—is yours. These are all your negative qualities.

Question: When my Kelim are corrected, will the light pass through these corrections further, and will something outside also change? Should I see that this is happening?

Answer: Not necessarily, not immediately, and not according to what you want to be corrected. Otherwise, you will be working for a reward.

Question: There is another point; it is said that one who prays for the collective receives correction first. Is there a catch here? Every time I encounter this, it does not sit well with me. I want the correction to be outside.

Answer: Then pray for that.

Question: You often say that spiritual sensations cannot be conveyed and can only be felt. In our world, we understand everything only in relation to its opposite, but in the spiritual world a completely different logic includes everything and all opposites are united.

The problem is that it is impossible to understand or talk about. What should we do with it?

Answer: Just do what you can and ask the Creator to open your heart.

Question: If I have some sense of what truth is, how can this influence my friends to get closer to it too?

Answer: You should pray for everyone, at least for your friends.

Question: If I do this, it would still correct me; then when I am corrected, would I be able to influence my friends correctly?

Answer: Yes, the whole world.

Question: Can there be influence coming from me, even without words, just through my prayer? How does this happen?

Answer: I cannot say how it happens, but it happens even without words, only by virtue of your desire. But it is best with words. We are made so that the more we express our feelings, the more effective they are.

Question: When I express my feelings, they often seem corrupt and impure and bring only harm. I do not know what to do about it. Should I stay quiet?

Answer: Do not worry; the Creator knows what is happening to us and who we are. So do what works best for you.

Question: Where is the line between annulment before the Creator and inaction?

Answer: The line is in each of your actions. If you wish to work for the Creator, you elevate your actions toward Him; if not, they are directed, as usual, from above downward toward you.

You can bestow only to the extent that you are connected in the ten and directing your desire from the ten upward to the Creator.

Question: What does it mean that my actions of bestowal to the Creator should precede the Creator’s attitude toward me?

Answer: It means that you do not wait for any actions from Him, but you turn to Him first and always act this way.

Question: How can we feel that the Creator is receiving pleasure?

Answer: We cannot feel this yet. If we have a clear intention to bring the Creator pleasure, then in this intention, we will begin to feel the pleasure that we give Him.

Question: Can we see this through the ten?

Answer: Yes, but not yet. You must have intentions for bestowal and connection between you. If you want to do something for the Creator and get closer to Him, then strive to find the strength within you to bestow to the Creator; ask Him for it, and you will receive this force.

Question: How can we recognize when to act and when to annul ourselves and accept?

Answer: It depends on you. Discuss these topics among yourselves, decide, and pray.

The most important thing is to ask for the force of connection from the Creator. Then everything should work out for you.

Ask the Creator how to use your desires correctly and whether you can direct your feelings and intentions to Him in these desires.

When you think about this together and want to relate everything to the Creator, that is the prayer.

Question: How should I deal with my egoistic calculations regarding my contribution to the group when I feel indifferent to this contribution?

After all, egoism is like fuel for work. What if it is not there, what should I do?

Answer: If there is no egoism, that is very bad!

The worst thing is indifference. If you feel empty, if your eyes see nothing, your heart feels nothing, and the “gears” in your brain area not turning at all, that is very, very bad!

Nothing will help you until you come to the group, make a small meal for them, and say: “Friends, I am dead, you are now sitting at my memorial service. Let’s drink in memory of me.” You will see how much this will help you. It will help!

Question: What do we actually bestow to the Creator?

Answer: Our desires and aspirations to get closer to Him, to become like Him, this is what we can bestow to Him.

We can use the desire to receive for the sake of bestowal only after restriction, when we can again open ourselves and say: “I want to receive this from You because it gives You pleasure.” Then the Creator bestows.

Question: How then can we receive correctly in the ten?

Answer: First you need to prepare the correct intention so that you can turn to the Creator. You must have the desire to do something for Him just as the Creator does for us.

When you position yourself against the Creator in this way and wish to receive from Him with the intention of bringing Him pleasure rather than yourself, then He gives, and you feel that He is filling you. From there, you will understand how to act.
