Question: How can we build a desire in the ten so that we feel good and bring joy to the Creator?

Answer: First of all you need to think about what you do for the Creator and only then for yourself.

Question: I am happy that I have the Creator, the teacher, and the friends, and I do not want any more joys.

Answer: That is the correct state.

Question: It is written that the measure of joy testifies to the measure of truth contained in the faith. If we are not in joy for a long time, what does this mean?

Answer: It means that you have no faith.

Question: Is joy a consequence that arises after the correct connection and good deeds in relation to the ten or the Creator?

Answer: It does not matter. But joy is always a consequence of a good deed.

Question: I want not just to rejoice, but to deserve joy.

Answer: Try to deserve it by raising the Creator higher and higher and connecting everything that happens with Him.

Question: We try to work in one desire, to bestow. How can we keep the feeling of the group in the right intention when there are constant changes of sensations and reactions that come from the difference in our friends’ properties?

Answer: Try to keep them in your common heart all the time so that it feels where it can lead, and you stabilize it.

You need this stabilizer that will keep you in the right state between you and with the Creator. I am sure you will succeed.

Question: What is the repentance of the ten that leads us out of exile and brings us to deliverance from egoistic desire?

Answer: If the friends in the ten feel that they have fallen into their egoism and do not have the strength to rise from it on their own, then they have no choice but to turn to the Creator, to cry, and to pull themselves out of this state with all their might.

Question: How important is it to expect salvation every day, and what does this add to the ten?

Answer: This adds urgency that with each question, with each appeal, you increasingly desire that the Creator stays in your sensations.

Question: Our ten experienced a very strong descent, and now we have risen. We decided to meet physically. What advice would you give us?

Answer: By all means, it is good. Physical actions give something, but, in principle, they do not symbolize anything.

Just pick a couple of good articles that talk about unity between you, and discuss them when you meet; you will feel how much you are already internally connected.

By uniting among us, we enable the upper force to positively influence us. Previously, its light caused negative disturbances within us because it was opposite to our nature.

And since now we strive to resemble the upper force, these states of connection and bestowal become similar to it, and to the extent of this similarity, we begin to feel it, not only the effects of its influence on us, but the upper force itself. This we call the revelation of the Creator.

Although in essence little is required to achieve this, attaining the spiritual world is not easy. It demands many efforts and stages. This is how we progress.

Later as we unite more deeply with the help of the upper light, we begin to build conscious connections that we initially call a spiritual embryo, followed by small spiritual states, greater spiritual states, and transitions from one degree to another.

We constantly work with our egoism and strive to connect with it correctly. The Creator forms increasingly egoistic ties between us—oppositions, contradictions, and rejections of one another—and we continuously build positive connections above them. In doing so, we reveal the upper force.

Question: Often we follow the instinctive impulses of our nature and only later realize that something is wrong. If I am unable to change anything, I ask the Creator to correct me. How do you learn not to blindly follow your nature?

Answer: To do this, we need to understand what the Creator requires of us and with the help of what actions we can satisfy Him. And then everything will be fine.

Question: There is a material world and the upper world. The upper world is felt nearby, among friends. How do we learn to feel the upper world in a multidimensional, sensory, and conscious way within yourself, and not somewhere nearby?

Answer: Try to feel it, and you will see that you are gradually approaching it.

Question: What needs to be done to be given a soul?

Answer: Unite the desires of the people in the ten into one great desire to bestow so that it resembles the Creator in some way.

It is the common soul of the ten. It may be that some feel it and can already use it, and others still cannot.

Question: What does it mean to do good in the ten?

Answer: To do my best to help each friend with whatever he needs to advance.

Question: But this is not enough. We do not have many needs for the ten to grow.

Answer: Try to do what your friend wants so your forces join his forces, and he would achieve what he wants.

This is the meaning of “‘Folly of follies,’ said Kohelet,” meaning that he assembled all those follies into Kedusha, and from them come great unifications (Rabash, Assorted Notes, 560, “Generations“).

Question: How can we transform “folly of follies” into holiness?

Answer: This is something we accomplish gradually.

Even if we do not clearly understand what we are doing, the Creator continually distances us from one another and from spirituality each day. Yet we persist in striving to draw closer to Him. Thus no matter what, we are engaged in this work.

Question: How exactly can this be brought into holiness? For instance, if we are working in the ten and the Creator disconnects us, do we then reunite?

Answer: This process naturally shifts to another degree. As soon as you complete what you were required to do on your current degree, you transition to a different degree, even if you do not feel it and do not think about it.

Question: What does it mean in practice to ask the Creator to make the right choice for us every time? How can we hear the response of the Creator?

Answer: Ask, it does not matter how—cry out, sing; the main thing is to address Him. Then He will surely fulfill your request, and quickly.

Question: What inner state allows a person to recognize what the good inclination is?

Answer: We can recognize it only if we rise to the degree of bestowal.

Question: How can one become a person capable of making the right choice?

Answer: This happens when we unite and ask the Creator to make the right choice for us.

Question: How can we sense the inner struggle of the two inclinations, good and evil, in our friends, and how can we help them direct it correctly?

Answer: You must feel this yourselves, both within yourself and within the group.

Question: What is the difference between the revelation of egoism and attainment?

Answer: The revelation of egoism creates the conditions for attainment. Everything we attain, we attain through the revealed egoism.

Question: How can we ensure that the seed of the good inclination grows stronger than the evil inclination?

Answer: Develop it and nurture it with good deeds.

What does the proper incorporation of each individual in the ten mean?

If we connect with one another and feel the Creator at the center of our unity, it means we are in proper connection with each other. When everyone removes their individual egoistic desires and strives only to uplift one another, then everything will work out correctly.

Question: What speeds up of correction of the desires of the ten, and how can we achieve it?

Answer: Speeding up the correction of the desires in the ten is possible only if we constantly think about it and act for the sake of it at all times.
