Question: The whole history of humanity is full of wars, terrible wars. The history of  Israel is full of wars. We know the Holocaust the Israeli people experienced during the War. It turns out that nothing helps, although it is constantly beaten. How much can it be beaten?

Answer: Until we get smarter and all the egoism is knocked out of us.

Question: Are there winners in war, and is it correct to say that reconciliation is the winner?

Answer: Only the Creator can act as the winner, and we want to see such a war. It is a war in which egoism will be defeated and peace will be restored throughout the Earth.

Question: What should we do if we make an hourly effort to love our friends, but the heart of the friend does not awaken? Does this mean I am not putting in enough effort, or is the effort itself incorrect?

Answer: There is no Creator in this effort. The Creator must be with you in your desire to get closer to the heart of your friend. Do not forget about the Creator in any of your actions. Only then will they be successful.

Question: I have a desire to combine self-hatred and the desire to love friends into a single whole. How can I connect these two states?

Answer: This can be done, but gradually. Try it once, then another time, and you will slowly get used to it.

In light of everything that is happening in the outside world and within us, we need to connect even more strongly and unite around the principle “There is none else besides the Creator.”

In this way we can awaken a connection with the common force of nature that will help us and give us reason, feelings, strength, and opportunities for greater and greater unity in order to constantly move toward the complete correction of the entire world.

It is known that in our world there are two forces: plus and minus, the force of good and the force of evil, good and bad states. But in fact, this is not so because there is no evil force directed against the Creator.

“There is none else besides Him”; that is, there is no force opposing the Creator, and everything that happens comes from only one force, from the Creator. Everything He does is aimed at bringing us closer to Him despite the resistance of the evil force that He also controls.

It turns out that two forces supposedly emanate from the Creator. But one should not think that there are two Creators, one good and one evil. It is just that the force that acts to our detriment is our own egoism that lives within us. Therefore, we need to separate these two forces within ourselves so that the good force that we can attract from the Creator begins to rule over us. Otherwise, we will be ruled by the force of evil, as the Creator said: “I have created the evil inclination.”

This is our work: all the time, in any state, try to discern that there is only one force in the world and that our egoism acts against it and does not allow us to cleave to this only good force of the Creator.

Question: You said we should try to be ready for changes. What does it mean to be ready for changes?

Answer: The fact is we will never be ready for changes because they are always new and we cannot foresee them in advance. But when we all want to grow the connection between us, we very quickly feel the state we are in and what we can change to come to mutual guarantee.

But we can never be ready for the next degree because new qualities get revealed in us. Therefore, we must help each other constantly to figure out together the states we undergo and what is left for us to do.

Trying to be ready for changes means that everyone is in internal connection with their friends and that no matter what happens, we are always determined to help each other. No matter the differences between us, we always try to support each other, be closer to each other, and stay interconnected.

Question: One should always see oneself as half guilty and half innocent. Is it the same for Israel and the nations of the world?

Answer: It is for those who advance toward their correction.

Question: How can we prevent the inner part or quality of Israel from sinking lower and lower?

Answer: Raise it higher and higher by uniting with each other, and the connection between us becomes stronger and stronger.

Question: What are we missing to balance the force of evil with the force of good?

Answer: We lack the Creator coming closer to us and being revealed between us. Then this force will rule over us, and we will be completely different—kind, responsive, and sympathetic to each other, like one man with one heart.

Question: If women put pressure on the world and demand connection from men, would such a demand replace wars for us?

Answer: Maybe such pressure would help both men and women. But this does not free women from working among themselves. They must come to the connection with each other to the connection with the Creator, and in addition, from their connection, turn to the men, and oblige them to unite too.

If women raise their common MAN, prayer, it will be a huge force. Huge!

Question: How should our prayer change with regard to what is happening in the world?

Answer: Prayer practically should not change. We ask the Creator to reveal Himself a little more between us.

Then we will understand what we must do to be connected with Him forever.

Question: Is connecting in order to bring contentment to the Creator and connecting against an external enemy ultimately the same thing?

Answer: In general, yes. There is an action, and there is a consequence.

If we had connected before the action occurred, we would have canceled the action. There are many actions that are ready for us, but we do not receive and do not feel them. They are not revealed because we change and correct them even before they materialize in this world.

Question: Why does the Creator first show my inner contradiction from the outside as if it were a problem in other people rather than in me?

Answer: It is so that you understand exactly what your problem is. He shows it to you in connection with others.

If you begin to change what you see in yourself to love, then your depiction of the world would partially change.

Question: Why is it only partially?

Answer: It is because there are steps in it
