Question: I feel like I am constantly working for a reward, but I understand that I just need to continue. How should I react correctly to such a state?

Answer: You need to be more integrated with the friends and then gradually it will be possible to move from corporeal work for a reward to spiritual work.

You can strengthen your intention to work for the Creator with all your might only through connection in the group. When the entire group unites with each other and is directed at the Creator, then we can already act. That is, we must connect all the previous pluses and minuses in ourselves and turn to the Creator.

Imagine that you open your hearts and let all the participants of the convention in. In this way we will unite with our friends in the ten, then in tens, in hundreds, and in thousands.

And the more we connect, the more we will feel the common Kli, the upper light that will come to us through all the friends.

All I need to do is to connect with everyone and carry through myself all this upper light, energy, and love for absolutely everyone.

Question: How do we awaken love for our friends?

Answer: If I think about it for a long time, if I try to connect with my friends and realize that otherwise I will not achieve the goal of creation and love for the Creator, then my heart gradually opens up, and I come to love my friends. We have to work on ourselves. It’s not easy.

Question: How can we plunge into the ocean of love at the convention, among so many friends and dear hearts where we all see and feel each other?

Answer: There is no hardship here. You just have to imagine that each of you opens your heart and lets all the participants of the convention in.

Question: Usually egoism does not allow us to accept love. How can we set our hearts to accept the love of our friends, to give them the opportunity to be bestowers?

Answer: This is a problem because in this case we feel obligated to others. This is what egoism resists.

Question: There is a powerful connection around the center of the ten. It is like a sphere in which the greatness of the Creator is revealed. When we move away from the center, connection is felt less. Is my task to feel the boundaries of connection and how to narrow or expand them?

Answer: No, by no means. You want the whole ten to be like one single whole.

Question: When we pray together with friends, we can hear each other’s aspirations. But how can I hear my friends when in silent prayer?

Answer: Listen to the heart of your friends, and in this silence you will hear what the heart wants to express.

When there is silence, when we are not pronouncing words, then you can hear the heart.

Question: Each of us works in the ten, makes efforts, and strives for bestowal. We come to the lesson and feel the joy of being together. But then there is a wall.

There is emptiness between everyone; everyone sits in their own cocoon, and we are not drawn to each other. Inside the cocoon, we work with ourselves, with the Creator, with the goal, with the importance of the lesson. What is next? How can I correctly ask myself and the Creator what I am doing wrong?

Answer: Each of us must commit to getting closer to the friends so that the ten eventually becomes something common. Then in this general, we will feel the upper world. Constantly imagine this, and nothing else is needed.

Question: How do we practically come closer to each other in a good way and not lie to each other?

Answer: It depends on the person’s heart, nothing more.

Question: What is the basis of each new connection in the ten?

Answer: To be even closer to each other than before.

Question: Sometimes it seems to us that we have already come to a complete connection. The next moment we see that this is not the case at all. How do we determine the degree of connection in the ten?

Answer: We cannot measure it. We must aim for complete connection every second.

Question: Rosh HaShanah, like a new degree, begins with judgment. Is it correct to say that without connection, the world will remain in a state of judgment and will not move further to the mercy of the Creator?

Answer: Of course, it will be advancing, but by a worse path.

Question: You said there should be no end to the efforts to connect. When we work together in lessons, meetings, and workshops, it is understandable. But when we are not working together, what should the individual efforts be?

Answer: I have to place all the friends into my heart and keep them there all the time so that they do not fall from there. That is all.

Question: In many articles, Rabash writes that if you do not bring contentment to the Creator, then life is not worth living. It is a very strong feeling when I do not want to live if I do not do something for someone else. How do we come to this?

Answer: We have to think about it all the time and ask the Creator to reveal to us what state we really are in when we improperly connect with Him.

Question: After the Creator brings us closer to Him, we feel rejection from Him. Will the strength of these rejections increase as we advance?

Answer: Yes, the rejections will increase. It is necessary to overcome them together, not alone. When you try to do it alone, it will not work. We must discuss it with our friends and then turn to the Creator together.

The Creator does everything explicitly or implicitly. But you have to constantly ask Him about coming closer together.

Question: Why does the Creator first need to break the heart and then heal it?

Answer: Otherwise you will not feel that you have to gather your hearts with everyone else and then present them to the Creator.

Question: What does it mean to present hearts to the Creator?

Answer: To unite them among themselves and present them to Him so that He can fill them with Himself.

Question: The Creator completely controls us, but we do not permit ourselves to agree with this good governance. It is as if we are telling Him that I will fulfill everything that comes from You, but only to the extent that I agree. How can we agree here and now with the good governance of the Creator without thinking and analyzing, but going by faith above reason?

Answer: We need to gradually create a desire in us that will lead us to the recognition that the Creator is good and He leads us to absolute goodness. This will gradually work out when we overcome all our disturbances.

Question: What is this temple of holiness that we have to build? What is it built of?

Answer: It is built from our good relationship between us and the correct attitude to the Creator.

Question: Our task is to act. But if we do not have an intention yet, can the number of actions in spirituality turn into a quality, an intention?

Answer: Of course it can. We must begin with the mechanical actions of coming closer to each other. In these actions, we will gradually discover completely different sensations and will come closer together and closer to the upper force. So, keep acting.

Question: It is written that only the Kli performs the action. Why is the spreading of light not considered an action of the Creator?

Answer: Because it depends on our Kelim (Vessels): we cause the spreading of light, that is, the revelation of the Creator.

Question: When I participated in workshops online, it seemed that everything was simple, I closed my eyes and opened my heart. At physical meetings, however, I realized that if I do not close my eyes, I will not be able to open my heart. How can I close my eyes?

Answer: We must try to see our friends (men, women) not with our eyes, but only with our feelings in how much they are aiming together with you to the Creator. In this, you will connect with them, between them, and with the Creator.

Question: What else helps to close my eyes, besides shame?

Answer: The feeling of happiness that you are in the correct direction.
