Question: Increasing the greatness of the Creator overcomes all obstacles in the ten. How can we further raise His greatness in the ten and in the entire world Kli so that we can all unite and cover everything with love?

Answer: Only if you are among people who care about it. Together, you raise His greatness in your conversations, meals, actions, and so on. And the higher the importance of the Creator in your eyes, the more you will raise yourself.

Moreover, by elevating the greatness of the Creator, you will please Him.

Question: Ultimately who is at war with the evil inclination, us or the Creator?

Answer: The Creator, and we help Him by pushing Him to do this, by supporting Him with our constant connection. This is the only way.

Question: If during the day one discovers he is not in a real war, there is no sincere prayer for inclusion in his friends, for helping them, then you need to start mentally developing this prayer.

I noticed that the evil inclination works against this thought, devalues it by saying if this is not a sincere prayer, it is better not to even start it. It seems pointless, it is not a real war. How does thinking of friends give them the strength to fight?

Answer: Here you need to take several cases like this and sort them out one against the other, then you will understand how to discern them.

Question: When we feel the strong influence of the Creator on us, is our effort to use the power of the group to come to inner peace, to hold it, or to feel in these efforts how the Creator rejoices? After all, it is written, our heart will rejoice in Him.

Answer: What will our hearts rejoice in? Only in the point where your qualities merge with those of the Creator.

Question: What kind of help do we need from our friends?

Answer: We need support. We only need an example and support in actions, which I acquire from my friends and wish to implement.

Question: If a friend does not come to the morning lesson, should I relate to him with faith above reason and think that he is fighting together with us, or should I relate to him in some other way?

Answer: How can he be fighting with you if he does not attend the lessons?

A lesson is like a battlefield. When we come to one place, whether physically or virtually, we try to imagine ourselves as united with others. And it turns out that the main thing is to be in thought together with everyone.

Being virtually on the battlefield does not mean that I am sleeping and dreaming of being with my friends. It means that I see myself and them on the screen and we are all going into battle right now.

The Light that returns to the source is the only means, the only tool, by which I correct desire. All I have is desire and light, which is called “the light that returns to the source,” because that’s exactly what I demand from it.

We give this light various names: “inner,” “surrounding,” “NRNHY,” and so on. But fundamentally, I demand that it return me to the source, to goodness. That is the only way I can address it.

My appeal can be only like this. I cannot demand the light of Nefesh or the light of Ruach; this will be the result of my state. But in order to change that state, I must address the Light, invoke its action, and it is this light, the one that returns to the source, that acts upon me.

I have instructions that explain how to act, how to work in a group, to study, to disseminate. These instructions are generally called “Torah,” i.e., the teaching (Oraa), a guide for action. According to the Torah’s program, I go through all the stages of the path that it describes.

So this is a simple matter. I have an egoistic desire and light that can transform it. And I myself stand in the middle, in the middle third of Tifferet, and decide to change or not. This choice is not made in isolation but in an environment, in a group.

In the end, I depend on rather “superficial,” “mechanical” actions. I join a group and lower my head before it. I do everything the friends want, and from them I receive the desire to be corrected thanks to envy, lust, and honor. With this desire, received from the group, I appeal to the light so that it will correct me. Then it comes and does just that. And in the new state—it all starts again.

From this it is clear that I receive both the desire and the correction (the screen) from the outside, from the group and the Light. I am that single, base point called: “something from nothing.”

Question: Which is more important: to imagine the Creator or to see Him? Is it that He would fill our imaginations or our eyes?

Answer: I think it is the same thing. There is a difference in the text as the author expresses it. But in general, imagining or seeing in Kabbalah is, one might say, the same thing.

Question: It turns out that we do not reveal the Creator, but we reveal Him in our actions. Should we reveal Him?

Answer: Yes, just present Him with the common Kli, which is created by the connection between you, and everything will be fine.

Question: Should I recognize the evil inclination myself and begin a war with it, or should I hold the line and simply resist the disturbances coming at me?

Answer: No, a war has a goal, and you must be directed toward it. Without this, there will be no progress. We need to unite among us and see how we ourselves combine our thoughts, actions, and goals into one common force.

It is precisely this common force that overcomes our harmful desires and impulses toward the Creator.

That is why we must be clearly directed toward connection between us and against the Creator. Against the Creator means against the various disturbances that He sends us.

Question: We often hear that to win the war against the evil inclination, we must come to the correct connection. What is the correct connection?

Answer: The correct connection between us is one in which no one tries to stand out, but rather, each one wants to push others toward unity.

Question: What does it mean that the world will become transparent?

Answer: It means that we will directly feel our connection with others as something we understand and feel and that this connection will stand before us as the highest achievement for each of us.

Question: Can we say that the problem between conflicting sides is that neither side recognizes the hand of the Creator, His governance in the actions of the other, and that in this perception, both sides are mutually connected?

Answer: Of course. But the point is that we must make this clear to everyone, and that all people should come to feel what we must all do together in order to reach a common result. That is what we need to discover, understand, and accept.

Question: Does true spiritual work happen not through a stable Kli, but in the moment when its form is lost and only the intention to reach the light remains? Is this the annulment of the form before the birth of something new?

Answer: No, it is not exactly as you put it. But it will gradually take shape under the influence of the general light that we awaken.

Question: Can we fight the evil inclination instead of a friend who has weakened and fallen?

Answer: Practically, no. You must be very connected to each other and replace each other in all circumstances. Then in the lower states when you disconnect and distance from each other, you will also be able to make up for him. But that will be later.

Question: How can we help a friend until he enters the battlefield?

Answer: Invite him to participate in this work with us.

Question: A new friend recently joined us. We sincerely wanted her to become part of the ten. But after some time, she began criticizing our work. She started pointing out how things should be done “correctly,” and eventually announced that she wanted to leave. What should we do? Should we try to keep her?

Answer: I do not think you should try to keep her. If she is criticizing your work and wants to leave, let her go.

Nevertheless, you must clarify things among yourselves and understand that there is nothing better than being in the ten and constantly rising together with the ten. The path you take and the questions you discuss are not so important. What matters is that you have a common intention toward unity among you and with her, and in this way, move forward together.

Question: Does the depth of connection with the Creator correspond to the depth of connection with the friends?

Answer: We feel depth to the extent that we are in connection with the friends, and to that same extent we can channel it toward the Creator.

Then we will be on the same “wavelength” with Him: we as receivers and He as the bestower.

Question: You said that we must strive to bestow to the Creator through the ten. How can we discern which actions are bestowal and which are receiving from the Creator?

Answer: Act according to how you understand it. That will still lead you to the correct connection between you and the Creator.
