Question: If everything that is outside is my “I,” then what is the point of pulling everything on myself?

Answer: Pull it on yourself and say that it is not all your egoism, but it is all you.

Feel that the other is you. What is the other one? It is a part of you that was cut off from you by a spiritual knife and seems foreign to you. You are given such an illusion.

Our qualities at the human level appear in our sensations as strangers. Our animate desire, which we feel as bodily, appears in the form of the animate world.

We also have a vegetative desire, just as our body has hair and nails. That is, the vegetative level of our desires is felt by us as the plant world. The inanimate world inside us is all the minerals, all the elements, stars, and galaxies that seemingly exist outside of us.

In fact, all I see around me is contained in four levels of desire. Those that exist partially inside me, I consider to be my “I,” and those that I see outside of myself, I do not consider to be my “I.”

Therefore, I need to realize, attach myself to everything that is outside of me, and understand that this is my immediate integral part, even more dear to me than the part that is inside of me. And when I integrate it, attach it, and stick it to myself through the love I develop for it, it is exactly within it that I will be able to feel the upper force, my higher life, and my eternal state.

And I myself am just a small dot relative to all this “I” that is outside. And what is inside me now? What does “I” mean? In fact, the animal body that we consider to exist is an illusion. And there is also a point— the beginning of the soul. And the whole soul is everything that is outside of me.

Question: How can we unite to feel the revelation of the Creator?

Answer: Our main progress is through ascents and descents. Let us say right now I feel completely stupid. I do not remember words or how to connect a couple of phrases. My head is empty and I am clumsy in my desires and aspirations. I am dead! Even worse.

And then everything passes, and a new state appears. It becomes more and more apparent and colorful. I strive forward to my friends; everything takes on meaning and taste. And then again, tastelessness, decline, detachment, stupidity, etc. And again, colors, tastes, desires!

That is how we move forward. The most important thing is to unite in both men’s and women’s tens so that you always receive common benefits from the falls of some and the rises of others. Our work is like that of a rectifier in a Wheatstone Bridge circuit. When it works in a positive phase, it goes to a plus; when it works in a negative phase, it also goes to a plus. Everything depends on our unification.

If we unite correctly, the Creator will ensure that we complement each other, and our common downfalls and ascents will always be only in our favor and will have a vast overall effect. So let us take care of this. After all, this is only possible through our unification.

Dam (blood) means Demama (silence/stillness), as in, “And Aaron kept silent,” and “Be silent for the Lord” (Rabash, Letter No. 32).

Question: What is this power of silence? What is it expressed in?

Answer: It is a state when a person agrees with everything that comes from the Creator and agrees to remain silent.

Question: How can one correctly follow the Creator?

Answer: Following the Creator correctly means finding out in the group how fully you are connected with the inner power of the ten, and then you can be more or less sure that you are taking the right steps. All internal actions are performed only through the ten.

Question: You said to clarify what strength we reveal from our connection in the ten. How should we analyze this correctly?

Answer: In our attempts to connect we must try to see how those strengths and opportunities we lack are born from our unity.

In this way, we will understand what we can develop within ourselves. We must look for new states we have not felt before, i.e., new strength, new connections, and new opportunities.

In the habitual rhythm of our actions, we must see this new strength each time, how it is born each time we get closer to each other, and how a new opportunity emerges in the connection with each other.

Lukas from Lithuania asks: “Today there are no leaders, no authorities. Who should we follow?”

Answer: That is true. But why do you need to follow someone? Follow yourself! Elevate your soul, fill it a little with the Creator’s light so that it illuminates the path you are on, and move forward. Move forward, you do not need anyone! You have a spark of the Creator within you, and it will lead you to Him.

Question: So are you saying, “Follow the Creator, He is your leader”?

Answer: Yes.

Question: Is it possible to set myself up for that? People are usually inclined to follow some leader with a charismatic personality.

Answer: Only follow the Creator.

Question: Is it possible to make the Creator your leader and follow only Him? Is it possible to live like that?

Answer: I believe that it is the task of every person.

Question: Suppose one watches recordings of your lessons. How do you differentiate between where you are present and where you are not, and when information is simply transferred through you?

Answer: I am always not present. Who am I after all?! I am an element of the system that does the work it needs to mediate between the upper and the lower levels, and I am in the middle.

That is a function, a position, and nothing more. Therefore, if a person can perform it without introducing any distortion or disturbance, then he is called a “faithful shepherd” (Rohe Ne’eman), like Moses. He was a faithful shepherd because he led his disciples (those who heard him), but in the way the Creator showed him to the next upper level.

The work is to annul yourself as much as possible and place yourself between two levels, upper and lower, to be the ideal connecting link between them. You must reduce and lower what is at the upper level, even at numerous upper levels, to the lower level to which you need to lower yourself.

Question: How can you precisely annul yourself?

Answer: A Kabbalist performs this natural action when he works in the spiritual world. After all, this is the first condition for existing in the spiritual world when you annul your “I,” and at that moment you have no other goal than to adhere to the upper level and fulfill its will.

Question: How can I convey the flame of striving for the Creator to my friends?

Answer: I don’t think it is possible, but probably through words anyway.

Question: Can we say that the Creator gives us a taste of His love, but then we can awaken it only through love for our friends, and this is a free action?

Answer: Yes.

Question: How do you constantly convince yourself to do this action, to love your friends?

Answer: Return to this action periodically until it is incorporated into your DNA.

Question: If Hisaron raises me to prayer, to merge with the Creator, this is good. Let it be so until the end of correction. Or should I still see the importance of my friends gathering in the lessons rises for me that my friends?

Answer: You have to collect and lift all this yourself.

Question: In letter 24 of Rabash, there is a phrase: “And may the Creator assist us in the corporeal and the spiritual.” I understand when we say that the Creator assists us in the corporeal. What does it mean to “assist” us spiritually? What kind of hope is this?

Answer: For Him to give us the correct desire.

Question: What does it mean to cherish the relationship of man to the Creator and the Creator to man?

Answer: So that the relationship between them is direct.

Question: We get a lot of blows and raise a lot of prayers. How can we move from the quantity of prayers to a qualitative prayer? I have a feeling that it is better to get one blow, but one that gets to us.

Answer: Quality will come with time.

Question: I have written down the conditions that should unite us: mutual guarantee, annulment, prayer for friends, “There is none else besides Him,” stay in one desire, and form a channel between the Creator and the ten.

That is what I just remembered. How do we observe all this at the same time?

Answer: There is nothing complicated about it. Nothing!

Question: But I can focus on a maximum of two conditions.

Answer: No, it is not on all of them together. All these conditions do not contradict each other. They only talk about your mutual relationship with the group. As much as you can glue into them, they can glue into you.

Proper interaction and communication between you are expressed in these conditions. You can stick a thousand different expressions on them. It does not matter. It is an open channel. That is all.

Question: How can I reach the despair that I am weak and cannot connect with others to reveal the quality of bestowal between us called “the Creator“?

Answer: You do not need to aim for despair. If I am heading toward despair, I am already in despair! I have nowhere else to go. I should aim for victory!

My victory will be in reaching despair with my own strength, but when I reach despair with my own strength, I find the opportunity to turn to the Creator at that exact point.
