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.

Question: How can we increase the lack (Hisaron) in the ten so that it resembles the lack of the Creator who wishes to draw us to Him?

Answer: Constantly think about why you lack connection with the Creator and ask Him to increase this connection.

Question: That is exactly what I do. I constantly think about my lack of connection with the Creator, but this only increases my disappointment in myself.

Answer: No, the Creator needs your joy. You should rejoice that you have a desire for Him. This is a mandatory condition. A person must always be joyful that the Creator reveals Himself a little to him, draws him to Himself, and then he strives and approaches Him. This is very important.

Question: You said that only in connection with the upper force is the work of correction possible, and this is the prayer of the ten.

What should our request be so that we truly connect with the upper force and have the opportunity to be corrected?

Answer: Your appeal should be to a single Creator from a single ten.

To receive something from the Creator, you must be like the Creator—united in one system.

A sign of your connection with this force and the ability to work with it is that you receive support, correction, and a certain impact from the Creator.

Question: Is there a difference in the impact on the Creator when we pray out of suffering or joy and gratitude?

Answer: Of course there is. When we thank the Creator, we are closer to Him, and if we ask to cancel the suffering, we are far from Him.

We must not be grateful for suffering. It is unnatural. We must correct ourselves and be thankful for the correction.

Question: Should a person regret that they cannot delight the Creator as much as He wants to delight everyone?

Answer: Yes, one should think about this and ask the Creator to give us such vessels of bestowal (Kelim de Hashpa’a) when we can gather everything we reveal and receive, collect it together, and pass it on to the Creator.

Question: Is there a difference between prayer and a request to the Creator?

Answer: No, essentially it is the same thing.

Question: We should ask the Creator to awaken love for others in all of humanity. To achieve this, should we make calculations based on the quality or the quantity of our unity?

Answer: Both quantity and quality. Ideally, there should be ten friends aiming for the highest quality of connection between them.
