Question: How can I go with the Creator to Pharaoh if it is revealed to me that I hate Him?

Answer: Find a common language with Him.

Question: The Creator controls us by adding or decreasing evil so that we have a choice. Why does this work turn into pain?

Answer: Our work does not turn into any kind of pain. You have to understand that this is the formation of our Kli. It is the only way to rise into eternity; there is no other option.

Question: You said to focus on one negative action and correct it through prayer. How do we work in such a way as to correct one thought and then move on to another? What should we ask the Creator for?

Answer: Consult with your friends. What you accept together, the Creator will never push you away but will draw you closer to Himself.

Question: Ultimately, what outweighs the world on the scale of merit: prayer or action?

Answer: Prayer is also an action.

Question: How can we, like Nachshon, jump into the sea so there is no shadow of doubt?

Answer: When a person looks within himself, he does not see the strength that would help him to do this.

Maybe this will come in due time, but right now, he does not find the strength to say: “All who go toward the Creator, follow me,” and to take such an action.

We need to grow this strength in each of us and in our connection in order to do this. Then, we can feel it. Let us hope that we will be worthy of Nachshon’s power.

We must act so that each one awakens others to unite. In this way, we will overcome our egos and come to unity. This is what is called crossing the Red Sea.

Question: If there is no patience in the ten, does it mean that the Hisaron (deficiency) will be born precisely here?

Answer: Yes, you must have such a great desire that you are not willing to wait, you need to reveal the Creator, the spiritual world, and yourself in it right now. Only then can you find peace.

There is no need to fear that the cup of patience may overflow. We should value those states when a great desire arises within us, remember them, and try to evoke them.

Question: How do we work with egoism and help each other? Suppose I invite friends to a meal. If I prepare a delicious meal, there is a risk that they will enjoy not the unity for which we gather, but the taste of the meal itself.

Answer: We must create the most comfortable conditions to make it easier for us to come together and feel the desire to embrace each other. Therefore, the main thing is that even if you enjoy the meal, at the same time, you strive to connect with your friends.

You cannot always act from negative feelings. Suppose you are pushed and run to the Creator, and then another push comes from elsewhere, and you run to the Creator again. No, that is wrong. You should see where your negative qualities manifest and correct them without waiting for blows.

During the preparation period, all the work is in the no’s, that is, in the “no” (Baal HaSulam, Shamati 204, “The Purpose of the Work – 2”)

Question: What desires are we not allowed to use?

Answer: Check it out for yourself, see, and try to limit yourself from all sides so that you build your personal connection space with your friends.

In the articles there is a general direction, and then everyone, based on one’s feelings, decides how to get around some obstacles to push away the state of receiving for one’s own sake.

Question: If a person does not have the Kelim of bestowal, can he do the work of restriction?

Answer: Maybe. In any state a person can do what he needs to, give, and connect with his friends.

Comment: But his original nature is always strong and, in essence, does not change. A person invests in and still remains in reception.

My Response: This means that he has not yet done any good deeds.

Question: What does it mean to implement connection correctly in a world group to be as one ten?

Answer: It means trying to help everyone, coming together around a single center, gathering together, uniting, turning to the Creator, and waiting for His help.

Question: What is striving to see the Creator before me?

Answer: It means seeing the force that pulls you forward, that guides you through Egypt, exiles, and various difficulties with your friends.

Question: Does Pharaoh die naturally or is he killed by the Creator when it is time to leave Egypt?

Answer: I do not think we can witness Pharaoh’s death yet. It means the death of all egoism existing in all people on Earth. Can you imagine what we will come to then? Complete correction.

Question: On one hand there is a union of language, silence. On the other hand, there is a great desire to speak, to spread. How can we combine these two great desires?

Answer: First there should be a desire to unite in tens, then in hundreds, in thousands.

If people have such an opportunity, then they should expand the circle in which they are more and more, wider and wider, until this whole circle includes all of humanity.

Question: How can you change an egoistic prayer into a correct one so the Creator begins to act?

Answer: The desires we feel in our impulses are neither egoistic nor altruistic. It is just a feeling of being created as I am, and this is my desire.

Afterward, through our development, we give the desire a vector when we direct it at the ten, the whole of humanity, and the Creator.

That is how we want to see the whole system: man, the ten, humanity, that is, the entire world Kli, and the Creator together. That is the main focus and goal of our efforts.

Therefore, we must imagine the picture we want to achieve during prayer.

Question: The physical body does not let go of the desire to receive for its own sake. What can be effective here in order to still be able to get out of it?

Answer: Connect with your friends and perform this action together with them.

It will not work out if you are alone because everything is built so that a person learns to neglect himself for the sake of connection with others and can connect with them.

Question: Which is more important: the effort to find out the conditions or the effort to make them change faster?

Answer: Both are hard. But first you need to clarify the state itself, get disgusted with it, rise above it, contact the Creator, and ask Him from there to allow you to raise all your qualities to this degree.

Question: It is said that descents are given so that a person feels that they are in exile and asks for mercy. Why is it necessary to ask for mercy specifically?

Answer: Because it helps you when you turn to the Creator and draw His attention to you.

Mercy is when the Creator takes into account your descent and wishes to help you.

Question: But we know that the Creator always hears our prayers. What is special about the moment when He shows mercy?

Answer: When you show the same mercy to each other, then the Creator acts the same way toward you.
