Question: What does it mean that the Creator will reveal Himself between us as the center of unification?

Answer: By creating us, the Creator gave us the opportunity and mind to understand and feel that He can be between us. He is ready for this. He made preparations for this, which is why we can discuss it today. The time has come when we can reveal the Creator in our unity.

Question: What does it mean that He made preparations?

Answer: He created all of reality, the globe and the people on it, and revealed Himself in relation to them. And after He reveals Himself, we, on our part, must take several steps forward toward Him.

Question: You said the strength of His revelation depends on the unification between friends. What determines this strength of unity?

Answer: It is impossible to measure. I understand that, technically, this could be measured. It will not be now, but later when we can feel the screen and feel with what force we are attracted to each other and how we hold the Creator.

Question: The congress is a big gathering. How can I feel that I have my ten at this huge congress?

Answer: The entire congress is one ten. All mankind is the Partzuf of Adam, his ten Sefirot. There are no more than ten parts.

The fact they are divided into tens, and tens, and more tens does not matter.

This is necessary so they all can make their own small, correct contribution to the common Kli.

Therefore, we must think about the general, because everyone at the congress wants to be together as one common whole.

Question: What can help us not forget that there is a connection of love with our friends and with the Creator and constantly maintain the singularity of the Creator?

Answer: Constantly think about it and live by it. Only in this way will you be able to maintain your connection with your friends and with the Creator.

Question: Is the attainment of the level of oneness the initial part of the request or the culmination of spiritual work?

Answer: This action is revealed at every degree. It is felt by you in response to your efforts.

Question: How can one understand that a group is advancing?

Answer: If with each passing day the ten experiences more and more revelation in understanding the entire system of the universe, then it is advancing. You simply need to study, read, and try to see the world through every article you learn, and then you will succeed.

Question: Does our connection extend to those friends who were with us but have left the community? Should we continue any relationships with them?

Answer: If they do not come, then there is no need to. You can reach out if there is a specific reason, but generally, you should not pull them back forcefully or try to persuade them to return.

Question: What determines the transition from receiving the light of mercy for oneself to love in connection with the environment?

Answer: A person must change their attitude toward society, toward people, and toward the group. Then they will develop the desire, the vessel (Kli), in which they will feel connection with the Creator.

Comment: We must perform a correction in our connection in the ten to become as one. But the main correction concerning the entire society, all of humanity, lies in including their vessels, as they are the most important.

My Response: No, we are not yet able to think about all of humanity or even about all of society in this way.

But at least within our groups, we must feel that we are preparing for this.

Question: What is the difference between religious people’s fear of the Creator and the Kabbalists’ fear of Him ?

Answer: The fear that religious people experience stems from the fear of punishment. On the other hand, Kabbalists do not have this type of fear. Instead, their fear is focused on the concern that they might not fulfill the will of the Creator.

A serious prayer is required to transition from the one type of fear to the other.

Question: From time to time, we feel fear of the Creator. How can we maintain this state consistently?

Answer: It depends on your environment, on your friends. If you all think about this together, it is as if you are keeping a ball in the air. Just as a team can keep a ball in the air when playing together, it is the same here.

Question: What do we need to do together so that we can build the Third Temple beyond what reality shows us?

Answer: We must regret that we are shattered, that there is no connection between us in our hearts and minds, and that we do not feel like one whole. Therefore, our condition is still far from being corrected.

But despite this, we must still move forward and hope that the Creator will gather us together and shine upon us, and then we will be corrected.

Question: On what basis does the holy community unite in order to become one whole and raise a perfect prayer?

Answer: On the basis that it desires to reach the Creator, to be close to Him, to influence Him, to receive from Him, and thus move forward toward the purpose of creation.

When a person is rewarded with a temporary illumination of Kedusha [holiness], it is considered that he has entered the Temple.

The ruin of the Temple is when the illumination is taken away from him. (Rabash, Assorted Notes, 566, “Cast Their Seed Among the Nations”).

Correctly using the glow of holiness means thinking only about the correction of the common Kli, the common soul, which is called Beit HaMikdash (Temple).

This is not a building that can be built in Jerusalem, but our common soul, which we create from all individual souls through unification, and inside it, in every heart, we prepare a place for the Creator.

You can sustain the glow with the help of prayer for correction, for merging of the hearts. We must unite all our individual desires into one desire, and the Creator will fill it.

Julia asks:

The Creator is a good screenwriter, in the drama genre. Can we know the ending of the story in advance and influence the course of events?

Answer: We know the ending of the story. It is the complete correction of human nature.

Question: Can we influence the course of these events?

Answer: No, we do not know how we should change or in what order we should correct ourselves. But in general, the path is clear.

Question: Then why is this being done? For example, the way is clear to us—rise above egoism, above our nature, but how to do this is not very clear. Why is all this being done? Point the way, tell us how to get there, and humanity will go accordingly.

Answer: The way is very simple: love your neighbor as yourself and be like the Creator, and so advance.

Question: But this is very difficult. Is it possible? Is a person capable of doing this?

Answer: Yes, we have the strength to ask for it.

Question: So it is on me to exert effort and raise a request, an effort and a request? Only this way?

Answer: Yes.

Question: Do all spiritual practices and all religions come from this phrase? Can I say this or not?

Answer: A person does whatever comes to his mind. But in the end, rising above our ego to love everyone is what is required of us.

Comment: There is this call, by and large, which resonates all the time. And a person, passing it through himself, makes all sorts of angles, spiritual practices, and religions and builds everything.

My Response: He dodges it.

Question: Can I tackle it directly? Is there a straight path to loving your neighbor as yourself?

Answer: No. One would not agree to accept such a commitment directly. A person cannot exist in this. But little by little, I think we will come to this.

Question: Come to live this way?

Answer: Yes.

Question: “Us and the Creator”—such a direct connection?

Answer: Yes.

“Fear of sin” means that he is observing everything only for his own sake, that the reason is for himself. “Fear of heaven” means that the reason is the Creator, that he observes Torah and Mitzvot because this is the Creator’s will (Rabash, Assorted Notes, 250, “Anyone in Whom There Is Fear of Heaven – 1”).

We must reach a state where all our organs, desires, and intentions agree with what we do. Then, we will come to the correct fear of heaven.

The root of genuine awe and fear of the Creator is the desire of a person to bestow to Him. They fear they might be unable to give themselves entirely to the Creator.

We must strive for our reverence and fear before the Creator to assist us in our spiritual work so that we can direct ourselves to Him.

The fear before our friends lies in wanting to see the same feelings in their attitude toward us as we express toward them.
