Question: Lately we have been not just making prayers, but some kind of cry and demand to the Creator to help us correct ourselves so that we can have peace in the world. What is it?

Answer: This means that your heart begins to really open up and demand correction. This will lead us to universal correction.

The most important thing in our work is to unite and feel like we exist together, as if we are one, so that a group or several groups, or all students in general, stop feeling that there is some kind of separation between them. And then we will feel a greater revelation of what we want to attain.

Question: What does “the soul teaches a man” mean?

Answer: This means that a person perceives through his soul all the problems that the Creator puts on his path so that he can ask Him for help to overcome them.

Question: How can we not be afraid of obstacles on the path?

Answer: On the contrary, rejoice if problems arise before you because this is a reason to once again contact the Creator, complain to Him, and make some demands.

He will listen to everything with pleasure since He Himself creates obstacles for you so that you will turn to Him, and He Himself will help you overcome them. If it were not for problems, then you would have no reason to maintain contact with the Creator.

The result of the correct appeal to Him should be the feeling of the Creator, His force, because only with its help can you deal with all your problems.

Question: Is there something we bestow to the Creator in this approach?

Answer: Our requests are what we bestow to Him.

Question: How and with what can we compensate for the lack of feeling that the Creator is our source and constantly turn to Him, like in the example of a mother and child?

Answer: If we want to connect with each other to exit the control of egoism and we make efforts to do so, then we are always in connection with the Creator, and we can turn to Him and demand spiritual ascent.

Question: We constantly ask the Creator for the whole society to become one big family. But judging by the fact that we must go by faith above reason, we cannot do it within reason in order for it to be realized.

Let’s say we asked the Creator, “Please make sure that everyone lives together in peace,” but this does not happen. Should I just annul and assume that everything is fine, because otherwise next time I will not be able to ask for it to be realized?

Answer: You must ask for connection with your friends and with the Creator in one state, in the same bundle.

But if you made a request once and left it, then your desire was not real, not serious.

Question: And if I go above reason, will I be able to see the result?

Answer: You will see the result, but after the action is over. By connecting to your source, you will begin to receive filling from it.

Question: For the Creator to fulfill our requests, we need constant revelation of desires.

Does the Creator’s response depend on whether a person fulfills the desire for bestowal in suffering through connection and prayer, or in the same form, but in joy, thanking and exalting the Creator?

Answer: In both situations there is a connection with the Creator.

The Creator is playing with you. He asks you questions, and you feel whether these are His questions or yours, then He answers them explicitly or implicitly. Thus, by playing with you, He gradually leads you to a state of Lishma (for the sake of others).

Although one can work devotedly, he is unable to determine if this devoted work is appropriate or not… (Baal HaSulam, Shamati 187 “Choosing Labor”).

A place for devoted work is formed when a person feels in his heart that he can sacrifice everything for the sake of the Creator. This does not happen immediately, but rather very slowly, gradually, and the Kabbalist feels it within himself.

Question: What does such a state, such a thought lead to? Does this bring contentment to the Creator?

Answer: That is not the point. The Creator knows what a person is capable of and what he is not capable of in all circumstances. When giving a person some tests, the Creator knows the outcome. Tests are needed only for the person himself, so that he can check whether he can cope with them or not, understand them correctly or not, etc.

Question: Let’s say a person understands that he really wants to sacrifice everything, but he cannot. What is this condition?

Answer: If he cannot sacrifice everything for the sake of becoming one with the Creator, then he has the opportunity to pray and ask, and in the end, he will reach his goal.

Question: Can we say that the external wars that are taking place in the world now are a consequence of the fact that we are not fighting enough internally with the so-called nations of the world?

Answer: Yes, that is right. Since we are not united internally, various problems arise in the world, and therefore, the whole world screams that Israel is to blame for everything.

Question: Is it really only prayer that can transfer these external wars into internal ones?

Answer: I think so, because we have already fought enough, and it did not help. Nothing in the world will help in any war.

We must come to the decision that help can come only if our hearts are united.

Question: A person can cry when turning to the Creator with any intention. What is the best intention on our part?

Answer: When a person feels that he has no strength to overcome the barrier that the Creator has created before him and he asks the Creator to remove it.

Question: Sometimes it seems that crying works as a kind of purification, but after I am cleansed, I am filled with even more egoism. Why does this happen?

Answer: It is arranged so that you cry from the egoism growing in you, then from even greater and greater one, until you realize what a bottomless egoism you have and start screaming that you cannot tolerate it. This is when the Creator will correct you.

Tears in the spiritual sense mean a feeling of powerlessness. Crying is a request from the depths of the heart to come closer to the Creator, i.e., they are an expression of a real desire.

Question: Do we reach the gate of tears only through suffering, or does fear of the Creator lead us to them?

Answer: First of all, it is through fear before the Creator. It is not just fear, but also respect and inner vibrations. After all, it is the cumulative feeling of the Creator in all your qualities that will lead you to contact with Him.

Question: Where am I going through the gate of tears?

Answer: Through the gate of tears, we pass to Gan Eden (Garden of Eden).
