And I don’t have time to think with which intent I study or pray, but I will simply observe the actions without any special intent.

At that time, he will reenter the holy work because now he wishes to be God’s servant without any preconditions (Rabash, Article 19, “You Stand Today, All of You”).

Question: This seems like working below reason. How can I check if I am working above reason?

Answer: According to what Rabash writes, it is impossible to check. We need to strive to rise in our work above reason in order to feel what this reason is and to dwell in faith above it. But the reason itself will remain at the level that the Creator has set for us.

Question: So will this not manifest externally in any way? Is this an internal work?

Answer: Yes, of course.

Question: From time to time you feel you are not corrected; you feel unwilling to unite, but then you overcome it. Obviously, this is not enough, and there must be some level of a request for correction. What should this level be to reach spirituality?

Answer: This level is the awareness of the evil of egoism that is revealed in you, and you understand that you must hate it to such an extent that the main thing for you is to get rid of it. That is difficult work, and it takes a lot of time until a person achieves such an attitude toward his ego and nature.

Question: What should I direct my hatred at, my unwillingness to unite with friends or my desire to receive?

Answer: At all manifestations of egoism, i.e., receiving for your own sake. To reach such a state, you should always think about it and digest it until you feel that you hate your egoism and are ready to do anything to get rid of it.

If you talk about it in the ten, you will gradually begin to understand how you should treat your egoism, which is against the Creator, against all of creation, and against all of you together and every one of you. You must accumulate all the hatred for it together and wish to push it out of yourself. All this must manifest in your appeal to the Creator.

Question: There is a form of addressing the Creator through a request and through a demand. What does it mean to address through a demand?

Answer: It is the same as through a request except that a person feels they have the right to demand something from the Creator. This is a very rare form of addressing, but it happens.

I cannot imagine that we are already in a position to demand anything. A demand is much stronger than a request. A demand occurs when you have no option but to demand and not simply ask.

Question: When the Creator sends illumination from the next degree, what kind of reaction is He expecting?

Answer: He expects His student to immediately rise to this degree and begin working on it in order to quickly establish a complete connection with the Creator.

Question: Through what means does this ascent happen? If there is a desire to analyze everything in the mind and try to understand what the Creator wants to reveal, is this the right approach?

Answer: Yes, this is also correct. But the most important thing is to see what your friends desire and try to help them with that.

Question: How long is the path from the realization of true evil to a genuine prayer? How can this path be shortened?

Answer: It is only by uniting between you in the group and studying the articles of Baal HaSulam and Rabash. The more you study, the more you understand that it is only through the study of the Torah that you can see how deeply egoism is rooted in you and how you must extract and correct it.

Question: How can we increase our spiritual vessel (Kli) in the group?

Answer: It is by drawing closer to each other. Only through this.

Turn to the Creator more often, ask Him for correction, but do so precisely when you notice that you are in need of correction and don’t just cry out for the sake of it.

Question: What will help us feel ashamed before the Giver? What actions should we take to feel this?

Answer: You need to constantly elevate yourself. Then you will feel that you are in fact deeply embedded in the desire to receive, and you will experience shame.

Question: Can shame prevent someone from praying? And who am I for the Creator to hear me and pay attention to me?

Answer: Shame should not push a person into a corner where they sit quietly ashamed, hoping no one will see or hear them. This is incorrect.

Question: What should be done if there is practically no shame, only fear?

Answer: In that case, there is nothing for you to do. You have not yet reached the recognition of evil.

Question: How can I feel that my soul is in the ten?

Answer: If I disconnect from the ten and feel that without it there is no air, that everything that was so important disappears, then my soul is in the ten.

The Temple is the revelation of the Creator that occurs within the prepared desires of a person that  they receive from the Creator.

These desires are capable of accommodating the Creator, and the person feels that the Creator fills them.

Question: How does a person in a state of lowliness and dust even suspect the existence of the Creator and know that they need to pray and build a Temple?

Answer: It is from the things he has already gone through. The Creator does not break off the connection with them. He simply shows the person where they are and at the same time gives them the opportunity to draw closer to Him from below upward.

Question: How can we help each other build the Temple in the ten?

Answer: Connect with each other and turn to the Creator so that He creates a connection between you that will be called the Temple and  fills it with His presence.

Question: Can a sinner bring contentment to the Creator?

Answer: No, not at all. By definition, he is a sinner. He is the opposite of the Creator.

Question: But what if he tries to build an intention to bring contentment to the Creator?

Answer: Then he must be righteous. If he begins to perform actions that pertain to righteousness, only then will he bring contentment to the Creator.

Comment: When a person is in a low state, he turns to the group. The group can only recommend one thing—hold on to the Creator, but he does not have that connection with the Creator.

My Response: Then the group will direct them to the Creator through itself.

Comment: But the connection with the Creator is given from above.

My Response: No, the group can guide him toward itself and through the group to the Creator. This is where the force of internal connection between them must manifest.

Question: Can powerlessness be transformed into strength of connection with the Creator?

Answer: Yes, it can. It depends on the environment.
