At congresses, we get together with all our might and renew our spiritual movement toward each other. We try to find out how we can get closer, feel another, completely incomprehensible, unknown person, and establish a contact with him that will be influenced by the upper force.

We can achieve much more at a congress than in my regular ten. I can be very connected to my own ten, but when I join a random ten, we have no past. I sit with people I have never worked with spiritually. That makes it easier for me.

I can wholeheartedly open myself to connection with them without any past superficial impressions. We must try to do this. In spiritual things this is how it should be, and even with your old ten, you can be completely open.

In such cases, it is our egoism that allows us to be more open and closer to each other. I will not have that ten tomorrow, nor did I have it yesterday, so I am in such an open state with them.

Think about it. Overall there are many opportunities at congresses. You can do it if you look for ways to feel your soul merge with a random ten.

If you have no complaints about them, no memories, no promises for the future, this is what always happens in spirituality. Every minute in spirituality you are in a completely new state. Every person is new at every moment. So you owe absolutely nothing to anyone except instant unification with each other and the Creator.

You therefore see that all of Israel are responsible for one another, both on the positive side and on the negative side. On the positive side, if they keep the Arvut to the point that each one cares and satisfies the needs of his friends, they can fully observe the Torah and Mitzvot [commandments], meaning to bring contentment to their Maker (Baal HaSulam, “The Arvut [Mutual Guarantee]”).

The law of complete interconnection in the integral system obliges us to receive from everyone and to bestow to everyone. Integral dependence on both reception and bestowal applies to each of us. We evoke the Creator’s pleasure with these actions, which we feel in the light He immediately fills us with.

Question: What does bestowing to friends mean?

Answer: Bestowal is helping friends to support them within the ten in an integral connection with everyone. I must take care of this, embrace them like the mother of small children, and hold them together so that in any condition they connect.

Question: How do I know that I am fulfilling the desire of the Creator and not the fantasies of my egoism?

Answer: To do this, first of all, you must fulfill not your desires, but the desires of others. Secondly, you must only do what a friend needs to support him in the group. That is all.

Question: What else can be included in the daily work in the ten besides connection, intention, and desire? How can we reveal the inner vision of the ten?

Answer: Simply talk about this topic among yourselves, gradually reveal yourselves and your friends within your circle. In this way you will reach a state where everything becomes clear to you.

Question: When you strive to awaken the ten and clarify the intention behind your actions, you often see that there is no intention for the sake of bestowal. Then you reach a dead end and have no strength to continue. Where can you find the strength to awaken the ten from truth and not from falsehood?

Answer: Think about what you need to do. Constantly practice actions for the sake of your friends, and ask the Creator for them.

This is called “habit becomes second nature.” Then you will be able to be closer to them in this way.

Question: How does the Masach (screen) relate to one’s willingness to bestow?

Answer: The screen is a person’s connection with the Creator for the sake of bestowal.

Question: What thoughts can we allow for comparison so it would help our spiritual advancement and not confuse us?

Answer: Thoughts on how to be connected with each other and in this connection receive light in order to guide it together to the Creator.

Question: How do you get out of sadness into joy?

Answer: Ask your friends to help you. Nothing else would work. You must look for such techniques by yourself and with this help you can rise from egoism and correct it.

Question: Even in the preparatory period you can feel the strength of the screen, which can manifest in us. Does the Masach work when you transition from the left line to the right?

Answer: It is unknown to me where your right or left lines are. But I know the transition from egoism to altruism and back is by using the screen.

Question: How can we justify the Creator when the past falls on us like we have not accomplished something? How do we work with the fact that we must justify the Creator?

Answer: At every moment of our existence, we must feel the Creator as the one determining our state and we must justify these states.

Justifying means recognizing that each state brings us, through our friends, to connection with the Creator and raises us to the next level.

If there are ten people in that body, it has ten times more power than a single person does.

However, there is a condition: When they gather, each of them should think that he has now come for the purpose of annulling self-love. It means that he will not consider how to satisfy his will to receive now, but will think as much as possible only of the love of others. (Rabash, Articles “Love of Friends – 2”)

Although a person may not feel, understand, or want it, they must still try to think this way.

This is the only way to acquire the desire and the need to acquire a new quality, called “the will to bestow.” And from love of friends one can reach love of the Creator, meaning wanting to give contentment to the Creator.

In fact, this is a game. What does a game mean? We do not want to give anything or love anyone, but we understand that if we do not attain such a quality, we will remain animals in our world and die as such animals.

Nothing will work out in our life neither for ourselves nor for others. Therefore, if we gather in a ten, it is the only opportunity where we can combine our efforts, desires, and requests, and receive such a force that will lift us above our egoism.

This is the principle of the so-called love of friends; that is, there is no love, but if we connect even our small “agreements,” it is enough to begin rising spiritually.

Question: In our dissemination we explain to people that the world is an integral system that functions like a human body. And they perceive it positively. They agree that we must become a unified system.

What is our next step? Do we need to tell them that they should study Kabbalah or something else?

Answer: We need to explain to them how we can become an integral system. After all, we cannot do this by ourselves, but only if we are affected by the special upper force that is able to unite us.

How can we evoke the influence of the upper force that can unite our egoistic desires so that we complement each other like the cells in the body?

We cannot do this by ourselves.

Each of us is a separate little egoist closed in himself. But there is a positive force outside of us that can do this. And the science of Kabbalah teaches us how to induce its influence on ourselves.

It explains how to get together, try to connect, what actions to take; i.e., how to do everything so that the upper force begins to affect us. This is our mission. We ourselves must learn to use this opportunity and show it to others.

The truth is that each of us is in the perfect ten, and only one’s egoistic desires do not allow a person to see that he or she is in an ideal state among ideal people.

And the fact that one sees negative qualities in others, it is said, “One rejects in the measure of his flaw.”

Therefore, if a person sees something imperfect in one’s friends, let him look closely, but only in order to see this imperfection in himself and thus be able to correct himself. Let’s try to have such an attitude.

Question: We are talking about the fact that I must clarify the desire to bestow within myself. If it is completely corrected, can we come to mutual guarantee (Arvut)?

Answer: Yes and no. You can come to mutual guarantee in the ten.

Question: Must the general desire be corrected in the ten?

Answer: Not 100%, but at the levels you are at.

The general Kli is millions, billions of people. And we are talking about fulfilling the guarantee condition in the ten. The ten itself enters spirituality and rises through spiritual levels, 125 steps. At each level there is conception (Ibur), nurturing (Yenika), and maturation (Mochin); that is, more and more levels.

It is so precisely graded that at every moment, by gathering together repeatedly, you can rise and feel how you are rising. As you draw closer, a qualitatively new spiritual state arises in you—the Kli. In it, you feel the increasing revelation of the Creator.

Question: Can you share your experience of how you lifted the spirit in the group when you friends felt tiredness from putting in efforts?

Answer: How can I tell you? First, any of our states are always movement forward. Always! As it is said: “One is elevated in sanctity and never lowered.” Therefore, even if it seems to you that you are falling and going backward, it only seems that way. It is designed that way, like a wheel that turns forward – backward, forward – backward, but moves forward.

Second, as soon as you feel that the awareness of the importance of the goal, the mood, the intention, and the prospect disappears, you should immediately, without delay, sit down to some serious work translating, processing texts, writing on Twitter, on Facebook, it does not matter where; that is, engage in either translations, writing, or disseminating—some kind of effective work. This helps a lot. And most importantly do joint activities in the group.

The states when a person falls are actually good states. The fact is that falling in your egoistic qualities adds egoism. Egoism was hidden, and now you have been given a bit more of it, which means you can start working over it and rise. You will fall again due to an addition of egoism and will start working over it and rise again. In this way, you will constantly be falling—rising, falling—rising.

Therefore, falling is actually moving forward, rising, but along the left line in the development of egoism. In the right line, you are given a sense of rising. But still, in both states you are moving forward.

Question: But if I see that a friend has lost heart, how can I lift his spirits?

Answer: There are many different ways to do this: talk to him, study together, sing together, have meals together, and so on. Try to do everything you can.
