Question: In Rabash’s Letter 77, it is written that every moment clarified, analyzed, and added to holiness enters the domain of holiness. How can we correctly identify, analyze, and connect each moment to holiness?

Answer: To do this, you need to be in constant prayer, in connection with your friends, and in understanding that your entire existence consists of moments your friends go through. In this way, you protect yourself so as not to fall.

Question: What is this constant prayer?

Answer: It is to hold on to your friends.

Question: How can I be sensitive enough and direct myself to exactly what my friends are going through and not myself?

Answer: You are going through the same thing they are going through. In addition, you have your moments, but the most important thing is that you are connected with them and go through all states together. You just need to feel dependent on them.

Question: How can we work so that all our actions and feelings become spiritual? How can we transform material pleasures into spiritual enjoyment?

Answer: Transforming material pleasures into spiritual ones is possible only if you think about what to do with the pleasure you receive. Suppose you experience some pleasure. First, consider from whom, why, and for what purpose.

In this way, you can somehow direct it, focus on something, and then you will understand what you are doing with that pleasure. It is not about the pleasure itself, but how we use it.

Question: How can we transition from enjoying false things to true, genuine fulfillment?

Answer: It is by connecting with our friends and helping each other understand what true enjoyment is, which we can receive from the Creator and then give back to Him.

Every moment we can examine ourselves and sharpen our focus on the Creator.

Question: It is said connection with the Creator as a result of prayer due to suffering is a greater correction than suffering itself, which is also a correction. What kind of connection should there be with the Creator to overcome suffering?

Answer: You should feel this, attract the Creator to yourself, unite with your friends, and do everything possible to be in the same desire, in the same connection with your friends and with the Creator.

Thus, you gradually form an instrument of influence upon the Creator and draw closer to Him.

Question: The whole world is suffering. We see this as a patent giving us a remedy for suffering. Is it possible to explain to people, including beginners, that they can overcome suffering by connecting with the Creator?

Answer: Of course, you can if only they would listen. There are no secrets here.

Question: We want to reveal the Creator in the degree that we can bestow to Him. What does this degree depend on? How can I know that I gave Him everything that I have received?

Answer: How can I measure it? We ask the Creator to reveal Himself to us in the degree that we can raise His greatness and bestow to Him. Then we will be able to do that.

Question: What is this desire that we have to present to Him so He would be revealed within it?

Answer: This is our desire to receive everything that He wishes to give us with the intention to give contentment to Him.

For now, we have to be ready to reveal the Creator in the degree of our understanding of how to do that. Gradually we will learn how to receive not for my own sake, but only for Him.

Question: How can we find the correct prayer if this requires a very large Hisaron? Should I ask for my friend to have a larger Hisaron or for me to?

Answer: It is a difficult question. First of all, I must ask for Hisaron for myself and for the fulfillment of my friends, because by asking for their fulfillment, I again turn to the Creator with my Hisaron.

When can we ask Him to give more Hisaron to our friends? In practice, we do not ask for it. We only want to join them and give them all our Hisaron, because if we pass it on, it immediately turns into reflected light (Or Hozer) to help. This is how we bring our friends closer to the Creator.

Question: It is written, “I will bless you in everything you do.” How can we perform every action with the blessing of the Creator?

Answer: I think we need to act directly here. If there is an opportunity to do something for the sake of the Creator, you should do it immediately and inform Him about it. This is called making an action (Ma’ase) and receiving a blessing (Bracha).

Question: How can we inform the Creator that we did something with the intention for Him?

Answer: Talk to Him. The Creator understands your thoughts, words, feelings, what you write on paper, and what you say into a microphone. The Creator is open to all your thoughts.

Question: But in my mind it seems like this goes back into the vessels of reception. If I, like a child, boast to the Creator to get more praise, how can I avoid stealing for myself again?

Answer: You will not steal. Keep using this approach; it is fine. Sometimes a person thinks and thinks for a long time, but they could have spoken with the Creator a thousand times by now.

Question: When a person feels suffering, should they accept this state as it is and connect with the Creator from it, or should they strive to rise above this state?

Answer: A person should definitely strive to rise above it. Otherwise, how will they turn to the Creator? One cannot cry and ask the Creator at the same time. It will not work.

Question: What exactly is the correction during suffering when a person connects with the Creator through their request?

Answer: The Creator, by influencing the person with His light, corrects their desires, their soul.

Question: When the Creator gives us something good, we enjoy it. How do I abandon this desire to receive for myself?

Answer: In order for this desire not to work in you on its own, you need to invest a lot of effort. Therefore, you should feel how much the desire “for your own sake” belittles you and puts you in the farthest state from the Creator.

Therefore, the intention “for oneself” must be changed to the intention “for the sake of the Creator.”

Question: Usually a lot of people who just show interest in Kabbalah come to the congresses. You said that we have to reach such power that it is sufficient for everyone. This is an unbearable feeling of responsibility. Do we need to include a request for these people in our prayer for our friends?

Answer: We are obliged to consider everyone as our friends, everyone in the world who is with us in any form of unification: via the Internet, by telephone, it does not matter. They are all, in general, our friends, they all participate in some way in our striving forward, no matter what level each is at.

We have to think about them. We are pioneers, the forward-looking group. Therefore, we have to act this way.

Comment: When I pray for my friends, I periodically forget to include everyone else in my prayer, then it seems that my prayer is incomplete.

My Response: All this, of course, is formal. We do not need to pay individual attention to new people, we should automatically include them within ourselves and continue our spiritual work. For now, you cannot yet care for these friends to be with you. But it is necessary to be reminded about this.

Habit is second nature, you will gradually get used to thinking about them. And not only thinking, but genuinely empathizing and raising MAN together with them. You will feel that they are inside you.

Question: And what should we do with the feeling of responsibility that presses on us that we will not have enough power for everyone?

Answer: It is very good that you feel such pressure. It is wonderful! Be afraid! This is the best thing I can wish for you.

Be afraid, worry, suffer. All these are necessary feelings that push you to think about unity and to direct it correctly to the Creator.

Question: So, be afraid and pray?

Answer: Certainly. Without fear, there is nothing at all. Fear is the most correct, natural feeling of our empty desire. I am very glad that you feel this way. I wish this feeling for everyone.

Question: During the day, we have time when we form a prayer. How can we use this time to feel that we are turning to the Creator together?

Answer: Gather together in sensation, as if you are in one place, in one desire, and from it you turn to the Creator, you want to connect to Him and to fill Him with your attitude. Nothing else is needed.

Question: There are different ideas about prayer. Is what is in our hearts already a prayer?

Answer: That is also correct.

Question: On the other hand, you say that first we form an appeal to the Creator, and then, as it were,  must enter Him, raise the general MAN right here and now. But some friends believe that, in principle, that this is not necessary.

Answer: Let everyone participate as they see fit. It doesn’t matter. And then you will analyze your actions and correct them with prayer.
