Question: How much effort did you have to make to feel what your teacher was saying?

Answer: A lot.

Question: You did not always agree with him, did you?

Answer: Of course not.

Question: Did you fight?

Answer: I did not fight against him, although sometimes I had a desire to give him an ultimatum: “No, not like this!” and so on. This is the natural reaction of our egoism.

But the fact is that I always understood that there was no other way, and I tried to work on it. There is no other way! I constantly researched the methodology, and it appeared to me to be very logical and perfect.

I kept trying to find a gap in it where there were still some inconsistencies and contradictions in it. You know, like in some physical theory. In the end, on the contrary, I was revealing only its perfection.

Therefore, I tried very hard to understand everything to the end. But to understand, it is necessary to engage in the implementation of the methodology. This is number one.

Number two is dissemination. After all, realization does not consist only in receiving from the upper, which is the teacher. He is the upper, he stands before you, in front of you, and only through him will you receive spiritual sensations. By this, you are bound to him forever. Such is the hierarchy of souls. And most importantly, you are searching: “Who will receive from me? To whom can I transfer all this?”

When you work with the source and become a transmitter for others, then you begin to properly contact both the upper and the lower. This gradually makes you a more and more corrected element of the spiritual world, the spiritual system.

I tried to work tirelessly in these two directions: to receive from the teacher and to prepare to pass on to others. I think that it was these two movements, me toward him and me toward the others, that brought me to this.

If you become absorbed in reading the articles of Rabash, it becomes clear that they are all priceless. It is impossible to say that some articles are less important because of their small size. They all strike accurately and right on target.

Therefore, every year I appreciate these articles more and more, although from the very beginning I did not think that these articles contained so much. It seemed to me that they were written simply because Rabash was obliged to write a new article for his students once a week. Every Thursday we gathered in our tens and read the weekly article. I thought that Rabash wrote simply so that we would have something to read.

Over time, of course, I wised up and realized that each article contains a great secret and a special message transmitted to us by Rabash in a carefully thought-out form. Although these articles may seem simple and easy to us, in fact, through them we receive an opportunity to establish a connection with the very center of creation, with its purpose.

Over the years I appreciate these articles more and more, and I am amazed at the greatness of Rabash and his special spiritual height more and more. With these articles he did special work for the glory of the Creator. Without them, we would not be able to open our soul and reach the correct connection with the Creator.

Therefore, when reading these articles, you need to accept what you read with gratitude. If it seems to us that they are talking about some simple and not very important things, we need to pay special attention to these places because we apparently do not understand at all what Rabash wanted to tell us about there.

Rabbi Hiya and Rabbi Yosi (two sages) were walking along the way. When they arrived at a certain field, Rabbi Hiya said to Rabbi Yosi, “Your saying Barah Sheet, which is implied in Beresheet, is so indeed, since the six upper days, which are only VAK de Bina, impart upon the Torah, ZA, and not more. The others, GAR de Bina, are hidden (Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai (Rashbi), Zohar for All, “Lock and Key”).

Question: What is written here is not about history but about the inner development of a person. What is the meaning of “the path”? Why is emphasis placed specifically on the fact that sages approached a field and not, for example, a forest? What is the mystery of all these terms?

Answer: What is described in The Book of Zohar indeed resembles our life. We must cross the field and find our path in it. It is good when there is someone else walking with us on the road, a traveling companion with whom we can discuss our path, unite, and try to clarify our goal whether we are going in the right direction, and so on.

Therefore, the article “Lock and Key” describes a phenomenon that is quite common in our life, when we want to do something and we have a traveling companion with whom by talking together we come to a certain conclusion of what should we do in order not to make mistakes on the path of life.

The road symbolizes the path that we go through in life. And the field is a place of work where a person puts in efforts to choose his direction and find the right path that would lead him to the purpose of life.

Question: When communicating with people, do you input information into them that will be revealed in them in the future, regardless of their desire?

Answer: Yes, we all do it unconsciously, and I do it consciously. And not only me, but all souls, all Kabbalists, who are not manifested in our world now.

We are all in one single system in the Malchut of the world of Infinity. And we cannot go anywhere. We are in nature!

Question: And how, without being in spiritual attainment, can I give out the material that the teacher gives me?

Answer: It doesn’t matter. You just open your pipe, and everything else goes through you.
It is like you are talking to someone, you turn on the contact through some wiring, and you give your frequency through this wire, and there are still higher frequencies that you don’t feel at all.

Question: In principle, I will not be able to describe any spiritual states with my brain because I do not know them. But at the same time, when I realize something, by this l let in the energy of Kabbalists?

Answer: Yes, you are still participating in this system.

Question: Suppose an intelligence agent enters the environment of the enemy and lives there for a long time. How can he protect himself from the influence of this environment? Is it really possible?

Answer: I do not know how the agent protects himself.

In Kabbalah, it is very simple. If a person does not want to, then he does not experience any pressure from the environment because the spiritual environment is unnatural for him.

You come to a group where you have to make an effort to be connected with it because here everyone is talking about love, about friendship, about rising above their egoism and coming closer to others. This is against your innate nature; there is no need to train intelligence agents.

Here you come by yourself as an outside element, and you have to work on yourself for a long-long time if you want to infiltrate this environment. It openly shows you what it has. If you want, you can infiltrate it.

If you stay in the group as an outsider, you will never understand anything. As soon as you make yourself an element similar to this group, then you will be able to understand what is happening in it. But then it will be too late because you have already become different.

There are no external games here. You cannot behave outwardly like an artist, but internally remain the same extraneous element. You cannot. Either one or the other. You have to change your nature.

Therefore, in our world, an agent can remain, for example, a convinced communist in a capitalist society. But not here; otherwise, you will not be able to get any Kabbalistic information.

But even if you get it, you will not be able to tell your masters about it because they will not understand anything about it, and they do not need it. In our egoistic world, no one is interested in how to be kind and good, and to love other people.

Therefore, Kabbalah is the most unnecessary science for our world. But it is needed precisely in order to raise our world. From this point of view, it is the most necessary.

Question: You say that your teacher Rabash suffered a lot internally. What caused him these sufferings?

Answer: A Kabbalist lives in this world as long as he is needed. It does not depend on him. For example, an ordinary person lives as long as he is destined: 60, 70, 80, 90, even 120 years. And for a Kabbalist, everything is built on serving others, leading them.

Therefore, if people need him, he continues to exist in this world. If not, then he has other functions because he simultaneously performs several tasks, not only the upbringing of spiritual offsprings.

Such a time came for Rabash when people around him partially ceased to need him. I felt it too: everything went into automatism and unwillingness to change, his students became Hasidic.

By the way he behaved and thought, I felt that he was putting his thoughts and affairs in order, internally sorting and systematizing students, attitude to the world, the world, and so on, before leaving.

I had no idea that he was leaving, but there was a feeling of “autumn,” the fading of life.

Question: Was it in his power to suspend this process and wake up again?

Answer: No. Only the disciples with their very strong desire, striving for the goal, could call him to life so that he would transmit on them the light of correction that they would demand. But he was not in demand. If a Kabbalist is not in demand, he has nothing to do in this world.

Question: Do people resist the spiritual flow with all their might and create tension in themselves that pushes it away?

Answer: They do not create tension. They simply do not retain the spiritual force within themselves.
Let’s say I have a green glass bottle. Why is it green? Because this glass traps green rays in the spectrum and thus looks green.

If we are similar to the quality of bestowal and love, the quality of the Creator, then we will as if retain this quality in ourselves, or vice versa, manifest it from ourselves, as in the example with the bottle, which, while retaining the green part of the spectrum, at the same time shines with green light. That is the way we act. That is, it is a clear physical law. There is nothing unnatural here.

All of Kabbalah gives a person only the opportunity to make himself a detector of the Creator, to reveal His single force within himself. But to do this, you need to correct yourself to become similar to it.

When a person reveals this force and becomes like it, he feels what it feels: eternity and perfection. Of course, there are gradations until you get to the state of complete correction. But on the way to it, there are 125 degrees of gradual approaching this absolute state.

Question: What does it mean to feel through the desires of another? Let’s say I want ice cream now. Do you connect to me and feel that I want ice cream? How does this happen?

Answer: We are not talking about animalistic desires. I am included in you not at the material level but at the level of the conjugation of souls, spiritual needs.

At the earthly level, this exists to some extent, but no one is doing it because we have to provide each other with a reasonable, essential existence.

Question: I do not feel my part of the soul, but you do. How exactly does the connection process work?

Answer: You do not feel it because the level of our animal (material) existence is disconnected from the spiritual. These are completely different levels.

Animal existence is built only on the maintenance of the physical body, which in principle has nothing to do with the soul. And the soul is a filling for the sake of inclusion in each other.

Question: There are techniques quite close to Kabbalah that transform a person’s reality and he looks at all things differently. But these people have a big problem: they seem to go against society, believing that they can influence their reality and live in it.

How can a person not play Superman too much and not completely deviate?

Answer: This does not happen in Kabbalah! After all, the further a person progresses, the more modest, more hidden, withdrawn he becomes, he is not interested in being in full view of everyone.

Don’t you see it in me? I do not need television or fame! I would not leave my room. And not because I am like that by nature but because all this loses its value.

You go up on stage, there are several thousand people in front of you, they listen to you and even worship you. And you rejoice that they receive information and not that they idolize you. These are completely different things!

Meaning, Kabbalah in no way makes a person arrogant.

The further you advance, the closer you get to the Creator. That is, you realize how opposite you are to Him and, starting to compare yourself with Him or yourself with others, you feel that you are in a state where you are the lowest.

Those who are higher than you on the ladder of ascent, they are higher spiritually, they have already moved on. Those who are below you on this ladder, they are still above you because they do not yet know what you know, and therefore, all their mistakes are not mistakes—they cannot do otherwise, it has not been revealed to them. And you feel worse than these, and worse than those.

A true Kabbalist cannot be arrogant. On the contrary, he becomes simple, likes to joke. But can also be very serious, very sharp. In everything concerning correction of this world, he is burning.

Question: How can a person endure three hours of a lesson chained to one place?

Answer: He is constantly in a state of inner work. He is experiencing his life in this! The lesson gives him great fulfillment!

Question: Are you talking about a Kabbalist who understands what he is doing?

Answer: Even if he does not really understand, for him it is not just mental strain and work on some extraneous things. He is in constant emptying and filling, emptying and filling, as he feels generally in corporeal life, but he goes through this at a tremendous inner pace.

Let us say you are hungry, you go to a restaurant, and you are saturated with a wonderful meal exactly according to your desire. You walk out of there, walk ten steps, meet someone, talk to them for five minutes, and suddenly, boom, a great desire arises in you again.

Again you see a signboard, and again a table is before you, a duck stuffed with apples, good wine, and music. Again, in a pleasant conversation with your friends, you drink, have a snack, enjoy everything, and fill up again starting from the smells and music of light, food, and everything. This is the state a Kabbalist experiences all the time.
