Question: The Creator led the people out of Egypt by a long path. Does this mean that after exiting Egypt we must also go through a long path?

Answer: After leaving Egypt, we are still wandering all over the world.

Question: It turns out that if we are still wandering, then each of us has already been engaged in attaining the Creator and studying His laws in the past?

Answer: Yes. Today, there are no new souls in the world at all. We must understand that everything is prepared for us to enter the last, final stage of correction.

We just need to connect with the spiritual root to which we belong. This is enough to enter a state called the Final Correction (Gmar Tikkun).

Question: On the sixth day of creation, man was created. It is interesting what the Creator said: “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness.” What does this mean?

Answer: After all inanimate and living creations, man is created in the image and likeness of the Creator. This means that man is created in such a way that he can literally grow from scratch to become like the Creator Himself.

Question: We usually say that the Creator has no image at all. What is meant by being in the image and likeness of Him? Let’s say it is about similarity in qualities; this somehow could be understood.

Answer: Of course, when a person forms a likeness of the Creator within himself, he takes upon the influence of the upper Sefirot, the forces of the Creator, and thus builds out of himself all the emanations, all the actions, of the Creator so that ultimately he acquires the quality of similarity.

In principle, it is not about the creation of man, but about the fact that on the sixth stage of spiritual correction, a person discovers within himself the strength to take all inanimate, vegetative, and animate desires, direct them toward the Creator, and thus become like Him.

Question: Rabash said that one can only correct oneself and that it takes much practice to gain control over one’s egoism. Why would we correct others if they will automatically correct themselves when we do?

Answer: Our correction depends on the connection between us. Therefore, dissemination is a very important action.

We do not take any obstacles into account but only wish to disseminate Kabbalah as a teaching about the correction of humanity and its elevation to the highest level—the level of the Creator.

Question: What will help us reach unity in mind and heart so that the Creator will elevate us to the next degree?

Answer: Fighting for unity in mind and feelings means that we must in any circumstance think only about unity because only based on that can we influence the Creator, our state, and move toward the upper purpose.

The one who seeks the truth is the one who needs the light of faith. (Baal HaSulam, Shamati 41, “What Is Greatness and Smallness in Faith?”).

Faith is a condition when I act as if I am in front of the Creator in absolute attainment, connection, love, and mutual understanding with Him.

Then, I am in complete faith.

Question: Can the light of faith be felt as something I can share?

Answer: The light of faith is a feeling of connection with the Creator. Of course, it is always lacking, so we must constantly ask for it.

Answer: It means to feel.

Question: What can we do to delve deeper into the sources and reveal them more internally?

Answer: You have a group where you should reproduce what you read in desires until they are ready for spiritual use.

Reproducing means reading and desiring to feel how gradually you immerse in all these conditions, and you begin to see how you change by them. Then you will form a more serious attitude toward your desires.

Question: Egyptians are desires and thoughts that lead me away from spiritual work. What does it mean to kill an Egyptian?

Answer: To kill the negative intention within oneself.

Question: How can we soften our path since it is challenging?

Answer: Through love for our friends. By increasing love among yourselves in the group, you can do whatever you want with your path and spiritual development.

Question: Every day I complain to the Creator. Why do people fight, why do earthquakes and floods occur? How can we help the planet Earth avoid these sufferings?

Answer: Change yourself so that you relate to all earthlings as good human beings and explain to everyone that love is the highest quality we can receive from the Creator, and it will correct everything.

Question: I feel indifferent to what is happening in the world. Should I emotionally engage in what is happening? What is the right attitude?

Answer: Indifference arises when you cut yourself off from the group, from the masses, and interest in getting closer arises from the fact that you are getting closer to your friends and want to create some common desire together.

Question: Often in work teams there are cases where you have to either listen to or take part in criticizing an employee for his actions. Where is the borderline between slander and simply seeing a person doing something wrong?

Answer: This is not called slander. There is no need to criticize anything. You just need to draw a conclusion and make a decision accordingly. If someone talks about someone in a certain way, then you may need to physically react to it.

Question: This is a work situation in which we identify some actions of the employee?

Answer: Yes, and we need more clarifications of this kind.

Question: It is written that slander kills three people: the one who speaks, the one who believes the speaker, and the one who is talked about. This is written in the Talmud. What advice can be given here?

Answer: From time to time, we should create such platforms within the team where you can discuss someone’s protest against someone so that people learn from this.

Question: So if we are talking about a person in his presence and telling him to his face what we think is the truth, this is not called slander?

Answer: No, but all this needs to be thought through and not revealed point blank, in front of everyone, so that all participants understand that this is being done for their benefit.

Question: How do you keep a balance between good and evil?

Answer: We cannot maintain such a balance. We do not need this at all since these calculations are inherently egoistic. We must try to surrender fully to the Creator.

Live in a state where you feel completely open to the Creator. Gradually, these feelings will settle in you and take their place.
