Comment: You say that dissemination depends on our internal unity. In theory, we want to convey some information. We gather together to do this.

My Response: We gather together for dissemination in order to unite and to find between us precisely the properties that connect us: mutual bestowal, mutual support, mutual guarantee, flexibility, connection, common bonding, even love.

We wish to clarify these properties. Why do we need all this? In order to then reveal the same properties in the rest of the world because the rest of the entire world (inanimate, vegetative, animate, and human nature), the entire mass represents the huge desire that must be completely, organically connected into one whole.

Then in this unified desire that is connected through common efforts, we will feel the property of bestowal and love, which we implement together. And this property of bestowal and love implemented jointly by us is called the Creator.

Question: Based on our discussions, it seems important for us to reveal the Creator because we were chosen for this.

We should simply accept this as a fact and from this state form a prayer. What is special about such a prayer?

Answer: The fact that you want to find contact with the Creator and only through this contact, connection with Him.

Question: If I send a prayer to the Creator every morning after having united the hearts of all my friends by name into one heart, does this prayer have the power of the ten? How strong is this prayer even though I do it alone?

Answer: Ideally you should try to feel the response of the Creator in your common connection in the ten. If you persistently try to do this, you will start to feel it.

Question: When we listen to an article together, it goes through our feelings like music. But when we read it independently, we want to stop. Why?

Answer: Because you lose the support of your friends as you step out of that state.

Therefore, you need to persistently increase the state of unity within the ten.

Question: What is the difference in work in faith above reason during descents and during ascents?

Answer: In descents, I do not have much faith above reason; it is hard for me to fulfill these conditions. That is why this state is called a descent. In an ascent, I am ready to do everything because I have strength, enthusiasm, and joy.

Question: How can we correctly add to the greatness of the Creator, and what is the practice that contributes to the growth of faith?

Answer: We must add the greatness of the Creator correctly in any state. We need to always strive for this.

If you act together with your friends, it increases and strengthens your faith in the Creator.

Question: Is recognition of evil a necessary part of faith above reason?

Answer: It is necessary because we are all evil.

Question: Where do the right intentions come from? From reason or faith above reason?

Answer: From the light of the Creator.

Question: How can I stop myself from criticizing the seemingly unworthy behavior of a neighbor?

Answer: You just need to stop yourself to criticize others. It is unacceptable.

Question: In the ten we unite, support each other, and feel great pleasure, but do not associate it with the Creator. It is hard to keep Him in focus all the time. How do we return this pleasure to Him?

Answer: You must connect yourself, the Creator, pleasure, and all other elements of this connection. You will see that everything will be easy to do this way, easy.

Question: What helps us rise above evil so that the Creator honors us with goodness?

Answer: We must desire sincerely to rise above evil, and the Creator will help.

Question: What is this force that reveals evil? Am I revealing evil or the Creator?

Question: It is said that the food for the soul is faith. What else can fill the soul besides faith?

Answer: Any impulse to bestow is between you and between you and the Creator. It fills the soul.

Question: We always have food for the soul: we have a teacher, primary sources, and friends. How can we increase the desire for the reward to receive vessels of bestowal?

Answer: It depends on how you are connected. You must constantly show each other how important it is.

Question: If the Creator takes away the connection that nourished your soul, then does one need to look for another connection or try to awaken what He took away?

Answer: Perhaps what He took away is no longer usable and we need to look for something new. Try it. Do not delay; you must immediately respond to such conditions.

Question: How does one avoid confusing faith above reason with faith below reason?

Answer: Faith above reason is faith despite reason. Faith below reason is when you invent faith, which does not require any work.

Question: Do we need to confirm that a righteous person is righteous?

Answer: No, it is absolutely not necessary. Faith above reason can arise without any connection between a person and his teacher.

Question: How do we find the righteous man we follow in the ten?

Answer: You need to turn to the teacher teaching you and do actions that help you adhere to him so that you can follow his words as truth.

Question: How can we feel that faith above reason influences us now and that it is leading us out of low states?

Answer: You do have knowledge, but go against it in the power of faith, contrary to your knowing. That is how you move forward.

If you are trying to unite hearts, it means that there is faith in them. Whenever there is a chance, you must re-choose the point of faith above reason and move from there.

Question: How can we act correctly above knowledge regarding the material world, and is it necessary to seek balance?

Answer: There is no need. Just cut yourself off from the material world whenever you can. Engage in spiritual things, and if necessary, return to the material.

Question: If the Creator shows some miracles coming from our unification, should I believe there is something even higher? How should I work with it? Should I give thanks for everything or not settle for little and ask for a bigger miracle?

Answer: No, we have no right to disagree with the Creator since, by doing so, we break the connection between us and Him.

There are no miracles; it just seems so to us. We must ask the Creator to allow us to treat our friends the way we imagine our relationship with Him. The whole system will balance itself this way.

Question: The more a person puts in internal and external efforts to please others, the more he feels rejection. What kind of punishment is this, and how can one get out of it?

Answer: We must always strive for love and look for opportunities to show love to our friends and from them to the Creator.

Question: And what if such a search turns a person in the opposite direction—the more one searches for ways to show love, the more obstacles one gets in response?

Answer: Well, that is good. That is given to us so that we can show even more love.
