Question: Is it correct to look at what is happening in the world and at the latest conflict currently taking place in Israel as if the Creator has increased the resolution like with a microscope and is showing me my attitude to the ten?

Answer: Yes. Each time the Creator increases the resolution, and thus we see past problems on an enlarged scale.

Question: What is colliding with what in my attitude to the ten?

Answer: There is a collision of your personal egoism with the force of bestowal and connection that is in the ten. These are the two forces that contradict each other.

Question: What is the state when all of person’s thoughts are about the Creator?

Answer: This is a state when a person fully identifies himself with the nature in which we all exist. There is nothing but one force of nature that gradually convinces us that it is the only one that exists.

Therefore, in order for us to be precisely aimed at it, this nature, that is, the Creator, creates a force opposite to itself as if playing with us by supposedly having other forces. And we must constantly keep ourselves directed at the single force of creation—the Creator.

Question: When there is the force of the Creator and the force of egoism opposing the Creator, can one somehow be in touch with the Creator in this state. It is frightening when, without any confrontation, the connection with Him is blurred and you are in some kind of worries and engagements, forgetting that He exists. How can we nonetheless make sure that literally all thoughts are about the Creator and everything will be connected with Him?

Answer: In principle, this is our work. We must always direct ourselves to this single, unique force, the Creator, who governs everything, does everything, and organizes all our thoughts and desires.

Question: Is there such a state when a person does not lose contact with the Creator and is in touch with Him all the time in any thought, in any desire?

Answer: This is already full governance. When a person reaches the full governance of the Creator, then he is in a state of limitless unification with Him (Dvekut). But this must be achieved by gradually building in yourself all your systems in knowledge, feelings, and definitions so that only the Creator appears before you.

Question: When we leave the lesson, how can we not forget about the Creator and connect every thought with Him?

Answer: To attune yourself to the Creator you must constantly, every minute, imagine that you are controlled by Him. He governs you completely. No thoughts, feelings, desires, nothing, in you happens on its own, they come only from the fact that the Creator is within you.

Actually, it is so, but you have to unite with it. Uniting with the force of the Creator that is within you is our task—gradually, gradually reveal Him in us to the extent that you will not feel anything but Him.

Question: Suppose we discover that we have a disease of distancing from the Creator. We know that unification will cure us of this disease. What should the essence of the prayer be? Should we ask for unification so that the disease will go away? Or should we simply ask for unification without telling the Creator what problem we want to be healed from?

Answer: We must ask for unification and ask for rapprochement. As a consequence of this, some problems will go away, and perhaps others will arise at a higher level. But this way we will move forward.

Question: Should we include the name of the disease in the prayer?

Answer: No, we cannot determine the name.

Question: So if there is a war, then should we simply ask for unification without mentioning in the prayer that we are asking for rapprochement so that the Creator will save us from war?

Answer: No, when things like war happen, we can ask by naming the problem and asking for salvation from it.

Question: It feels like the Creator is constantly giving us a reason to connect. As soon as we feel that we are no longer able to cope by ourselves, a special prayer is born—a prayer for the many. What else can we do to transfer and convey it to society as much as possible?

Answer: Nothing. This is enough. If we pray for the many, for them to be connected and aimed at the Creator, then nothing else is needed.

It is possible to convey this to the outside world only through your heart.

Question: If a friend has distanced himself from the ten, what efforts can we make to awaken his heart?

Answer: Just pray. At the same time, you must show that you are connected with each other and helping each other so that he sees the ten in a state of correction.

We need to continue to pray for all those who have left us because ultimately they must come back and correct themselves.

Question: What does it mean to see my corrections?

Answer: To see my corrections means that I begin to treat my friends in the ten like family.

Question: If our world group comes to an internal war with its evil inclination, will it help the world?

Answer: Of course. Only in this way can we come to complete correction (Gmar Tikkun); it is only by fighting with our egoism and turning to the Creator so that He helps us in this.

Question: Is it possible to say that we see an external war because we cannot use the light attracted by us for greater connection?

Answer: Yes.

Question: Why does a person fall into such feelings that the Creator does not help him?

Answer: Because he needs to invest much more of himself in connection with the Creator.

Question: The whole history of humanity is full of wars, terrible wars. The history of  Israel is full of wars. We know the Holocaust the Israeli people experienced during the War. It turns out that nothing helps, although it is constantly beaten. How much can it be beaten?

Answer: Until we get smarter and all the egoism is knocked out of us.

Question: Are there winners in war, and is it correct to say that reconciliation is the winner?

Answer: Only the Creator can act as the winner, and we want to see such a war. It is a war in which egoism will be defeated and peace will be restored throughout the Earth.

Question: Can we choose which of our thoughts to follow?

Answer: In general, yes. We choose, sort, and strengthen our thoughts with our connection.

That is, you should have extra confidence based on the fact that you are in a group, and everyone is interested in gathering in one single force, in one single opinion, and in a single aim toward a single goal. Then it is called a group.

Question: How do we strengthen this confidence among friends?

Answer: There are many articles by Baal HaSulam and Rabash about this.

We need to talk to each other, encourage each other, and in order to manage this, we appoint a person in charge every day to awaken the friends.

Question: What should we do if we make an hourly effort to love our friends, but the heart of the friend does not awaken? Does this mean I am not putting in enough effort, or is the effort itself incorrect?

Answer: There is no Creator in this effort. The Creator must be with you in your desire to get closer to the heart of your friend. Do not forget about the Creator in any of your actions. Only then will they be successful.

Question: I have a desire to combine self-hatred and the desire to love friends into a single whole. How can I connect these two states?

Answer: This can be done, but gradually. Try it once, then another time, and you will slowly get used to it.

In light of everything that is happening in the outside world and within us, we need to connect even more strongly and unite around the principle “There is none else besides the Creator.”

In this way we can awaken a connection with the common force of nature that will help us and give us reason, feelings, strength, and opportunities for greater and greater unity in order to constantly move toward the complete correction of the entire world.

It is known that in our world there are two forces: plus and minus, the force of good and the force of evil, good and bad states. But in fact, this is not so because there is no evil force directed against the Creator.

“There is none else besides Him”; that is, there is no force opposing the Creator, and everything that happens comes from only one force, from the Creator. Everything He does is aimed at bringing us closer to Him despite the resistance of the evil force that He also controls.

It turns out that two forces supposedly emanate from the Creator. But one should not think that there are two Creators, one good and one evil. It is just that the force that acts to our detriment is our own egoism that lives within us. Therefore, we need to separate these two forces within ourselves so that the good force that we can attract from the Creator begins to rule over us. Otherwise, we will be ruled by the force of evil, as the Creator said: “I have created the evil inclination.”

This is our work: all the time, in any state, try to discern that there is only one force in the world and that our egoism acts against it and does not allow us to cleave to this only good force of the Creator.
