Question: What can help me ascertain where the truth is and where the lie is?

Answer: First, one should not aim for what is easy and lies nearby. This is what the evil inclination advises us.

The most important thing is to be inside the group, not afraid to fall, and not to listen to any conclusions, neither those on the left nor those on the right, but to be as much as possible directed to the Creator.

The direction toward the Creator is that you must think about the best for everyone. This is a very important difference between a correct conclusion and a wrong one.

Question: If a person has no Hisaron (desire, need), he or she is dead. How can one acquire this desire in such a state?

Answer: Only through friends. A person has to cling to them, receive a desire from them, and work with it.

Question: What can motivate someone to cling to friends if they have no feeling?

Answer: It doesn’t matter that they have no feelings. He needs to see how much he is unable to be like others.

Envy, honor, and passion take a person out of this world. That is, one surely watches others and envies them; this will save you.

Question: What helps us reveal the forms of the Creator’s conduct in the ten?

Answer: Our desire for unification helps us. We must try to unite, and if we do it in a wrong way, the Creator will correct us.

Question: What will help me understand the difference between my daily aspiration in the ten for unification and the form the Creator seems to be showing me? What should I pay attention to?

Answer: You should pay attention to your friends. The Creator clothes Himself in your friends. You must feel through them what unfinished relationships you still have with them, and you will understand how to approach the Creator.

Question: How to be honest with friends and yet not to push them away?

Answer: For that, you simply need to raise the greatness of your connection with your friends higher than anything else in the world. As they say: either unification or death.

Question: What is common prayer?

Answer: Common prayer is the connection of all your private prayers into one prayer, which is assembled by the Creator. He assembles all the prayers from your hearts and connects them into one prayer, into one heart.

Question: Why does the Creator do this work?

Answer: How can we do this work? He connects, He sorts, He does it all, it is all Him.

What are we doing? We only see our helplessness and ask Him to gather us together, connect us, raise us, and fill us.

Question: What conditions must be met for this to happen on the part of the Creator? Do our relationships, fulfilling the principles of Rabash, and nullifying ourselves before each other affect the quality of common prayer?

Answer: Of course they do. We influence each other a lot and we cannot even imagine how much.

Question: We listen to the lessons, work in the ten, and participate in dissemination, but there are moments when egoism traps you and says: “Take a rest—you have worked a little and that is enough.”

How can you refuse to follow the lead of the ego at this moment? After all, you need to strengthen yourself, and it pulls you back. Can you advise us what to do?

Answer: Look at each other, and you will see how to work.

I am looking at you, at men and women who are all on my one screen, and I see and feel how each one of you, to a different extent, of course, strives to be closer to the Creator. And all this is achieved by rapprochement with the friends.

In this way, we move together toward the goal of creation, and by connecting closer and closer we achieve one heart, one opinion, one desire, and inner unity. This is the end of our correction.

A person in this world needs nothing more. Nothing. One must carry out worldly affairs only to the extent that one’s body requires in order to exist, and direct everything else only toward getting closer to everyone in the soul, and then, in this common soul—to the Creator.

Rather, they should calculate how many corrections they must do in order to have ransom for their souls to the Creator, meaning that they will not look at the deficiencies, but at the correction of the deficiencies, by which their soul, which was in the Klipot, will emerge from them and cling to the Creator (Rabash, Article No. 18, 1989. What Is, “There Is No Blessing in That Which Is Counted,” in the Work?).

Question: Is it necessary to make calculations from the states of our path?

Answer: How will we know what we are asking for otherwise?

Question: But we have never summed up in the ten how well we are advancing. What are we missing?

Answer: A person should feel himself where he is, where he is being pulled, and in which direction he is moving.

Question: Before I do this kind of work, I have to adjust myself correctly. The article says that the blessing should be before and after. How can we bless in order to perform this calculation correctly?

Answer: It means that you bless the Creator for allowing you to see your uncorrected desires, and then you bless Him for correcting them.

All that your hand and strength can do, do.

Question: How can we reach a state where we feel we have already done everything in our power and come to a prayer? How can we grab it and hold on to it?

Answer: To do this, you have a group that you need to connect with and bring to a state of equivalence to the Creator where it is completely and correctly connected. Then you can begin to work with the Creator through this group.

In a correctly connected group, everyone will participate and aim for a common goal—to unite in the center of the group, as in one heart.

Question: Is this within my power?

Answer: Everyone can and should do this.

Question: What does it mean that a strong desire does not allow other desires to enter?

Answer: If you have any desires that are not aimed at reaching the goal of creation, they prevent you from reaching it. They must be neutralized, and then you can work with the desire for the purpose of creation.

Question: On one hand we ask for mercy in the ten, for the Creator to connect us. On the other hand, we are grateful for all the judgments that are coming down on us. How do we equalize these two forces in order to receive the middle line for the correct prayer?

Answer: The judgments descending on us are the obstacles that we must overcome in order to properly build ourselves in one desire. Then we will be exactly like the Creator. That is all.

We need to understand that the Creator’s impact on us is necessary only in order to properly attune us.

Comment: The problem is that before we turn to the Creator, we suffer for a very long time. We make a lot of personal scrutinies until we come to the understanding that we have to give Him this work.

My Response: And who is to blame that you do not appeal to Him?

Question: How do we catch the point of connection with the Creator in order to reduce the number of internal scrutinies and turn to Him faster?

Answer: Only with the help of a group when all of you tell each other that you need to annul, bow your head, and ask the Creator to correct you. Only in this case will you reach success.

How important your friends are to you and how impressed you are with them, determines how much you will speed up your path.

Question: What is required of us so that the Creator holds us and there is a spiritual connection in the ten?

Answer: It requires bonding between you so that you are united by hearts. When you feel like such a ten, then it will be possible to turn to the Creator about mutual work.

Question: When we read the sources, there is so much faith in them that it enters and accompanies us all the time. How do we not lose it, but add to it, if we can add anything at all to the faith of the sages?

Answer: Of course you can, if you hold on to each other.
