Question: How can you get rid of grievances against the Creator?

Answer: What hurts you is what you need to pray about.

Let a person write down what he wants to address to the Creator, and then at different times of the day check whether what he wrote is correct. And if he feels that he wants to change his prayer, then this is a step forward.

Therefore, continue your work and try to constantly adjust the prayer slightly. Then you will see how the Creator responds to you accordingly. And if necessary, He will correct you.

Question: How does prayer affect us?

Answer: It acts on us through the Creator in such a way that later we can see what we are changing for.

Question: How do we achieve the prayer of the poor? Can we condition ourselves so this prayer is the one that is accepted first?

Answer: We can. That is why it is written that the most important prayer is the prayer of the poor who feels he has nothing and asks the Creator.

Question: What is the difference between prayer and plea?

Answer: A plea is probably much harder than prayer because it is an urgent request coming from the heart.

Question: When I see my ten’s corporeal Hisarons (deficiencies), do I need to ask for their fulfillment for the sake of bestowal?

Answer: As for corporeal Hisarons, I do not know; you decide on this issue yourselves. In general we should feel what we lack from what we want to express in prayer to the Creator.

We need to understand that if we want to get closer to Him, we must strive for the property of bestowal. Therefore, asking for the property of bestowal so that you can be closer to the Creator, understand Him more, and thus bestow to Him is a serious prayer.

Question: I want to feel not only the Hisarons of the ten, but also that of the world Kli. How can I do this?

Answer: This is slowly forming in each of us. What the whole world Kli wants, in general, is in each of us; only it manifests gradually. So do not worry, this will happen soon.

Once you direct your feelings through the ten to the Creator, you will feel how your intentions become realized.

Question: As we unite in the group, we all work for the sake of bestowal. How can we increase our Kelim of bestowal and expand our Kli?

Answer: The more we think about how to turn to the Creator, the stronger our friends will be, and the more we will feel the desire to receive what we ask the Creator for.

Question: I see how my friends in the group are trying to create a collective prayer. How can I strengthen and support it?

Question: What is the mechanism of this process?

Answer: Pay attention to what they are asking for. You can hear it. And you will see if you can join their requests. It is advisable to find reasons to join their prayer. It is very beneficial.

Question: To attune oneself to the Creator, do you need to pray for several hours? How can you shorten this time to always stay connected with the group and with the Creator?

Answer: It is not necessary to pray for a long time. The main thing is that you try to do it from the depth of your heart.

Question: What is the spiritual essence of gratitude to the Creator?

Answer: We must thank the Creator for creating us and for bringing us to the method of Kabbalah through which we can enter a two-way connection with Him and reach certain degrees of connection. As it is said: “I am for the Creator, and the Creator is for me.”

Question: What does gratitude to the Creator mean as a spiritual action?

Answer: Speak about the feelings you have toward Him, about your hope to achieve a connection with Him through your friends. Ask both for your friends and for yourself.

This is the meaning of a prayer in public, that one must not exclude oneself from the public and ask for oneself, not even to bring contentment to one’s maker, but only for the entire public. It is so because one cannot extend one’s boundary while the boundaries of the rest of the buds of the flower remain where they are, for as smallness blemishes the beauty, so does greatness, since the boundaries of all the lines and circles of the flower must be related.

This is the meaning of (Psalms 22:21) “Save my soul from the sword, my only one from the dog.” One who departs from the public to ask specifically for one’s own soul does not build. On the contrary, he inflicts ruin upon his soul, as in (Midrash Rabbah, Chapter 7, Item 6) “All who is proud,” etc., for there cannot be one who retires from the public unless with an attire of pride. Woe unto him, for he inflicts ruin on his soul, for one who takes from the flower, not only does he condemn the beauty of the flower in general, that there is a flaw in their value, but even that specific part has no glory or beauty whatsoever, and no color in the eye will regard him (Baal HaSulam, “Not The Time For The Livestock To Be Gathered“).

Imagine how many useless or even spiritually harmful actions we perform when we ask the Creator for ourselves: “Give me. Help me. Do this for me,” and so on.

There is nothing more harmful to the spiritual elevation of a person, because in this way he asks for himself and not for the common soul. By doing so, he completely separates himself from it without understanding what he is doing.

Therefore, the most important thing is to clearly include several very serious, cornerstone, fundamental rules. The first rule: Never ask for yourself.

The second rule: Ask only for the Creator to gather the group. That is, ask not for each of the friends individually, but for the whole group, the assembly, the Kli, in which the Creator can be revealed, in order to bring Him contentment. This is bestowal on our part opposite the bestowal on His part. Thus, to the extent that these intentions coincide, we will reveal Him.

As an individual, one cannot leave society and ask for anything for oneself: to bring contentment to the Creator, to correct the world. This is all nonsense, which is only intended to distract us. Do not do this under any circumstances. Always ask only for unification into a group. Then, through this, everything will go right.

Question: It is said that the Torah is acquired through suffering. What should one do if they want to escape from suffering?

Answer: There is nowhere to escape. Direct them to the Creator.

Comment: It seems like a vicious cycle because you do not receive an answer and you want to shut yourself off from suffering.

My Response: No, you still need to ask the Creator and strive even more toward Him. Maybe you lack connection with the ten, but the method is essentially to connect with each other and raise a request to the Creator.

Question: Every day in our group, we write prayers. Each friend describes her lack (desire) in one sentence. Does this help us progress, and how does it help us come to one shared desire?

Answer: Of course, every prayer of each woman, man, and child reaches the Creator, and the Creator responds to it. The only question is how much do we feel it? But we surely increasingly influence the Creator and receive a response from Him.

Question: How can we feel that the Creator hears every word in our prayer?

Answer: Either believe in what the Kabbalists write, or continue until we hear, see, and feel that we are in connection with the Creator.

Question: We should ask the Creator for the quality of bestowal. How can a creature ask for a quality that is not initially inherent in its nature?

Answer: It can ask. Initially we naturally only want to receive, but through our lives and interactions with others, we also bestow. Therefore, we are capable of both.

I think it is important to understand that prayer should truly come from the heart to the Creator, and it should be for your connection in the ten or for your friends.

Question: Should prayer in the ten be simultaneous, like an attack, or should it flow smoothly between us, with us complementing each other throughout the day?

Answer: Both.

Question: What is more effective to ask for: attainment in Torah or a constant lack of it? In other words what is it better to ask for, the Kli or the light?

Answer: The light. When the light comes, it fills you and leaves you with the correct desire afterward. Therefore, one should constantly strive for the light of Torah.

Question: How does the light of Torah come to us in faith above reason when there is neither deficiency nor suffering? Maybe this is already merging with the Creator?

Answer: Hold on, it does not happen that quickly. Usually, a small illumination comes to you that supports and guides you forward. This mainly happens because there are many of you. That is the only reason.
