And it is said that at the hour when the Creator had a desire to create man, He called together the “camps of the higher angels” and, seating them in front of Him, said: “I want to create a human being.”

They objected to Him: “What is a man that You should remember about him?!” What is special about the person You are going to create? He answered them: “Man was created in Our image, and his wisdom will surpass your wisdom” (Rashbi, Zohar for All, “Heaven and Earth”)

Question: What kind of forces are angels?

Answer: Angels are single forces of nature, each with its own name.

Question: Let us say the force of gravity, is it an angel?

Answer: Gravity is an angel, electricity is an angel, and whatever you want. At the human level, this force can be envy and other properties. We can even control these forces, but only slightly. We do not know how they act because it has nothing to do with earthly sciences, but only with manifestations of the upper forces.

Question: Why does the Creator ask these forces for advice? What does it mean?

Answer: The Creator, i.e., the supreme unifying force, looks at each of them and chooses how to use them to achieve His goals.

Question: Is talking to a person and talking to their soul the same thing or different?

Answer: When you talk to someone, you are conversing with the person, not their soul. Speaking to the soul means opening your soul to each other, connecting on the next, higher degree, and feeling each other there. It is a completely different level of contact between people. But to do this, you need to feel the Creator.

Comment: I have a strong desire to learn how to speak directly to a person’s heart, not just at the level where we communicate, but at a deeper level.

My Response: To achieve this, you need to activate different desires, vessels, and tools. With a little more time, you will get there. Do not rush ahead of time.

Question: After the congress, I am constantly in gratitude. But it has divided me in two. Before, I was grateful to the Creator for having good feelings, and now I thank the Creator for being the cause of my feelings. Is this true gratitude?

Answer: This gratitude is already higher than the previous one. Before, you were grateful simply for feeling good. Now you are grateful for feeling good in the Creator’s world. Later, there will be other clarifications.

But you are already gradually separating yourself from the state in which the Creator raises you.

Question: All my fears arise because my desire to receive is not satisfied, and this causes anxiety. But I want to shift my concern to whether I can bring contentment to the Creator and whether I am doing it correctly. What is the prime support for each of us in this transition? Where can we find the strength for it?

Answer: Usually we draw strength from the understanding that there is no other way, that we have friends beside us who think the same and are in the same circumstances. We must overcome these fears, uncertainties, and doubts that knock us off the path to our goal. We must overcome them by all means.

Question: Is it possible to race ahead of these obstacles and awaken love?

Answer: No, you must understand that all these obstacles are designed to correct us. Without feeling them, we cannot correct them, and the world will not come to a sense of balance.

The ten (a Kabbalistic group of ten friends) can be perceived as a field in which we are obliged to do certain work.

If our work is correct, our future world will grow in this field, the correct, kind one. In this field we will find the Creator who blessed this field. In this way, we can move forward on the spiritual path.

We are looking for the Creator in our life, where is He? We want to reveal Him, turn to Him, meet with Him, and advance in our lives by following Him or being next to Him, no matter how, as long as we are together with the Creator. It is like a little child who does not know where to go, but he sticks to his mother right next to her and walks with her.

If a person connects with friends and completes the full ten, this group becomes a holy society where one eventually finds the Creator. This whole group is like a field blessed by the Creator, and together with them, one can move toward the goal of creation.

The Creator gave you this group so you could achieve the goal of creation. But this field may remain bare and unseeded or even overgrown with weeds and thorns without yielding useful fruits.

Or maybe, on the contrary, you connect with your friends, strengthen them, and wish that a good harvest would grow in this field, which could provide the whole world, all of humanity. Then this field that is overgrown with thistles will turn into a fertile arable land blessed by the Creator.

To do this, we need to unite and thank the Creator for caring for us and leading us to the end of correction. And the more we unite and become closer to each other internally, the more we will strengthen our connection, called the field, until we realize that we need the blessing of the Creator. And without the help of the Creator, not a single seed will sprout from the earth.

Therefore, all our work consists of connecting and turning to the Creator, asking Him to help us work properly in this field, and to grow such a harvest that can saturate and fill all creations.

Question: Do we receive blows in life because we try to come closer to the Creator without having qualities similar to His?

Answer: Generally yes, but these blows teach us, heal us, and elevate us.

Question: How do we understand which obstacles we need to overcome and which are sent to us to change direction to the right one? Or do we need to overcome everything?

Answer: No, not everything. We need to understand what we need to overcome and what we do not. We must look at everything we receive because it comes only from the Creator.

Question: What helps one constantly reveal and develop the true, strong, pure desire to be like the Creator at each degree?

Answer: You should feel each degree from all sides and relate it to the Creator and understand that He is revealed in you through all kinds of properties.

The Creator Himself will help you clearly identify your states. The point is that the light He sends you breaks you into several parts. Therefore, one relative to the other gives you a sensation of certain properties and characteristics, and you thus move forward.

Question: How can a person be rewarded with the revelation of the truth, the revelation of the roots?

Answer: To do this, we just need to correct our qualities and connect with the Creator.

Then all our qualities will be against His qualities, and one by one we will receive His influence on us. It shapes us and gives us a clear understanding of our condition in relation to the Creator.
