In order to reach adhesion with the Creator, we need a strong desire, which we do not have. Desires are revealed from the entirety of the shattered souls, and therefore, they cannot be strong because everything is fractured. Therefore, some small particle from the common soul awakens here and there thanks to which a person awakens.

This general awakening is caused by the surrounding light that is waiting for us to create a place for it where it can really be revealed. Due to this surrounding light, we find ourselves connected to each other and receive the opportunity to gather into a group and study Kabbalah. All this is in order to increase our desires.

After all, our desires are very small and they are also not directed correctly. We do not know where we exist and for what purpose. It is like a small child who does not know where he is, hut has parents who know exactly what is happening to him and what needs to be done with him, and how to take care of him so that he grows up healthy.

Therefore, if we want to grow spiritually, we are brought to a group and taken through all kinds of states. By establishing correct relationships in the group, we aim ourselves in the right direction and thus advance.

Besides, we are at such an advanced stage of development that it ceases to be individual. That is, we are entering the era of what is called the last generation when all of humanity has to awaken. Today, an awakening of a small group or individual Kabbalists is no longer enough like it was in previous generations.

We must understand that we all belong to the same desire of Adam HaRishon, and we need to come closer and to become incorporated in it. Then we will see that the Creator helps us in more tangible way.

It is not by chance that such great hatred is being revealed in the world today, and it is flaring up more and more day by day. It would seem that this is absolutely not compatible with the high level of development of humanity, which should have already stopped all wars and be concerned with more exalted things.

But it will turn out the opposite. We will forget about space flights and high matters. If we do not start working on our connection, we will feel how humanity is sinking lower and lower every day and being immersed in sordid affairs. After all, the main thing we need to do is to connect everyone to the system of Adam HaRishon. If humanity learns about this method and understands why they were mistaken and were getting into difficult situations all the time, then they will come closer to correction in this way.

It is amazing that the further humanity advances in engineering, high tech, science, culture, and education, making such progress as if it can already reach the stars, at the same time, our life on planet Earth will become more and more miserable, appalling, and gloomy. We will look like bugs crawling in manure.

After all, if we do not advance toward connection, then all our other achievements will turn to our detriment and beat us. They will not allow us to develop correctly, and our life will be getting worse and worse.

However, the correction of egoism is impossible by simply overcoming it. We must connect above our egoism. That is, it is already useless today to fight against our egoism, like in previous generations when each person was developing individually.

In our time, there is only one way to defeat egoism: together, collectively. This field of connection, love, mutual care, and guarantee that we establish between us should save us and bring us to a new state. Otherwise, we will not succeed.

Question: Kabbalistic sources say that if we sum up the pleasure of all people throughout the history of human existence, then one gram of spiritual pleasure will be much greater than the pleasure of all people ever existed on Earth. How can this be?

Answer: The fact is that a single contact with the Creator covers all other types of study, it includes absolutely everything that a person could ever have felt.

Question: If so, then everyone should be eager to reveal the Creator now?

Answer: No, no one has such a desire. We desire what supposedly exists close to us and attracts us. While this does not seem to exist for us nor attract us.

Question: Why is the Creator Himself not interested in our revealing Him? Why doesn’t He stir this desire in us?

Answer: He does stir it, but gradually in order to preserve our freedom of will.

Question: Does one who reveals the Creator constantly experiencing such pleasure?

Answer: Of course. It is the highest form of pleasure that completely fills a person. And then a new desire is revealed, an empty one. So a person strives to fill it too. Thus one advances from a small pleasure to a greater and greater one in the way of revealing emptiness within himself.

If you take the pleasure of all ants and compare it to a human pleasure, then one second of human-level pleasure when you love someone, let’s say a child, is much greater in quality than all the ants’ combined. It is the same with the Creator.

Question: There is a common saying that a person is rewarded for good deeds that he does in this world in the next world, and vice versa, that if he does wrong, then he is punished for these actions. What do you think about it?

Answer: These are all people’s conclusions, and, of course, there is some basis for this. But, in principle, it is necessary to talk about this only in the following context: If the Creator is an eternal higher power that completely controls us, then what kind of reward and punishment can we talk about?

It is only about enabling a person to rise to the level of the Creator with the help of correction. Only in this can he be rewarded or punished. But not because he makes a mistake, does not apply enough strength, or something like that, because after all, it is the Creator who created him this way.

How can you even say that something can depend on a person? After all, in any undertakings that manifest in a person, the Creator is the first.

Comment: But we are created in such a way that we do not feel an upper power, and therefore, we have freedom of choice.

My Response: Allegedly we have.

Comment: Even if “allegedly,” I feel that way. It turns out that both the punishment and the reward are determined relative to me.

My Response: Only relatively to us. And only about how we accept it. It’s as if we ourselves create such an environment, such conditions, in which we discuss: “Yes, there is allegedly freedom of choice here and we are in this freedom of will.”

Question: What does the Tree of Life symbolize?

Answer: In our world, a tree is a symbol of what grows from the earth (from inanimate nature), rises, and continues its development up to the flowering and emergence of fruits. Therefore, the tree symbolizes what it transmits from the inanimate level to the animal and human levels. That is, the Tree of Life enlivens and nourishes all of nature.

Although it receives only water, minerals, and other nutrients from inanimate nature, what it produces is already the vegetative level, from which the animate and human worlds feeds.

Question: It is written, “He and His name are one.” What does it mean?

Answer: The Creator and His name are one because what we perceive in the four-letter name of the Creator is the Creator Himself for us.

There is no separate “He” and “His name.” Relative to us, they are the same. We cannot talk about something higher yet.

The four-letter name of the Creator “Yod-Hey-Vav-Hey” is the structure of our desire. What is revealed in the desire is the Creator. And what is beyond desire, we cannot even explore.

It is written in the sources: “The whole universe is a manifestation of the names of the Creator.” That is, the Creator in all his manifestations in relation to us appears to us as nature.

If one commits a crime, he murders a human within himself (Stanislaw Jerzy Lec).

Question:  For Lec the murder of a person within himself is a crime. What does it mean to “murder a human within oneself”? After all, was there a human within myself?

Answer: Yes, there was a human and after all I committed a crime. And by that I killed him.

Question: What does it mean that this human lived within me?

Answer: It means that for the time being he was not doing anything good or bad. Whereas here came an opportunity to reflect on this state—am I human or not?—and I decided that it is not worthwhile for now.

Question: And what is “a human within me”?

Answer: This is a purely altruistic upper movement—from myself to the benefit of others.

Comment: I think I will be able to do that, but when the moment comes and I…

My Response: Nothing.

Question: And this is called that I kill a human within myself?

Answer: Yes, but then you understand that here you have to turn to the upper force so it would transform you in this way, and you would be able to really grow a human within yourself.

Question: Meaning this is a necessary condition—the murder of a human within me?

Answer: Yes. The one who does not stumbled does not rise. This is a known truth.

Question: Do you mean to say that practically these “murders” are happening constantly within me?

Answer: Of course.

Question: I “kill” a human, “kill” again, and I am moving this way?

Answer: If you are moving. If you feel that you kill.

Question: If I feel that I am killing, it is a tremendous stress and trauma for me?

Answer: Yes.

Question: And once again I grow a human, and again?

Answer: And so forth.

Question: It would be great to move without killing. Is it possible?

Answer: But how can you move?

Remark: With love.

Answer: No! Movement can only happen if you step on yourself like on a rung, and you rise. Then again you see yourself there, on the bottom, and you step on yourself again, and rise.

Question: On every step I lie on the rung?

Answer: Yes.

Question: The sources say that “There is None Else Besides Him.” Is this a law?

Answer: Certainly. There is no other will and force that could change something or do something, no other that we  we can turn or from which something can radiate. It is all one single force.

Question: Should a person believe in this?

Answer: One has to reveal it.

Comment: But we see a different picture. We cannot say that there is none else besides the Creator.

My Response: For us, the whole of nature breaks up into billions of various sources and impacts us. We must reveal that it is all one single whole force, authority, and intention, and in this way approach it.

A person who teaches Kabbalah has states when he can express his thought technically quickly and correctly, and there are states when he needs to express something emotionally without a special technique of speech, and then these emotions are conveyed even better. After all, he has to strain himself emotionally and send an invisible charge from himself to others.

This often works better than beautiful words. There is contact between the internal systems of the one who wants to convey and the one who wants to receive.

This is more effective than words because it enters directly without clothing in phrases that should pass into some meaning, and then the meaning in some way should pass into feelings, and the feelings should be felt and absorbed. This whole mechanical chain does not exist because the message goes straight from heart to heart.

It depends on the contact between the student and the teacher. It either exists or does not exist. However, it mainly depends on the student. If he wants to connect with his teacher and be as connected with him as possible, to drown in him, to be absorbed by the teacher, and asks for it, then it happens.

Question: You are talking about an internal request. How can we build it so that it really comes from the heart?

Answer: Gradually, by elevating the teacher in your eyes, above all your opinions, above all possible corporeal conditions. By understanding that you are given a great, unique opportunity to receive something from the teacher, and it is necessary to take advantage of it, to not neglect it, to not postpone it for later, to not accept it as something ordinary, and to not transfer it to some corporeal relations and corporeal benefits.

This is a very big problem of the interaction with the teacher because a person is given difficult conditions here. Yet, if he observes them more or less, he can obtain contact with the Creator through his teacher. At the same time, they should build such a chain when the lower one is completely immersed in the upper one.

We study this from the system of building blocks of the upper system where each degree enters the higher degree, and that one enters an even higher one, and so on. Therefore, if the lower degree enters the upper one and exists there as an embryo inside its mother, then it can develop with this upper degree, at least in the first nine degrees. This is called nine months of fetal development.

Then it goes outside and gets its own external model of development, which also depends on the upper one, like a baby who was born and develops next to its mother. The nursing period lasts two years, growing up six years, childhood and adolescence twenty years, until full maturity.

Today we no longer need to prove to people that connection is the cure for all problems. We just need to show that connection can be achieved. And although many believe that this is a utopia, unity can be achieved and we have such an opportunity.

We have the real method of connection and by implementing it we can come to the correction of society, life, and the world.

This message should be the very first when interacting with the masses. If earlier we started with the fact that all the problems of our world are global, integral, and in order to solve them there is nothing left for us but to unite, today they themselves say: “We understand that we need to unite and that only together we will solve any problems.”

Humanity has absolutely everything except good connection with each other. If people are connected by good, they will solve all problems.

But for now they are in mutual hatred, in rejection of each other, and all the good that they have is not dispersed, does not spread out between them in order to cover the whole earth with good, prosperity, health, and security. On the contrary, everyone pulls it to himself, and in the end there is no benefit to anyone.

This is all clear to people. Only they ask: “Is it even possible or is it a utopia?” There are those who dismiss the idea saying: “This is impossible, leave us alone, and that’s it.” And there are those who say: “Can you show me this explicitly or not? If so, I’m with you.” And there are more and more such people who agree to be shown an example of unity.

But how can we show it? Therefore, the most important thing for us today is to show them our inner strength of connection. Then they will feel that it is possible and they will inevitably join us. They will literally suck like little children to their mother.

I hope we can do it.

Comment: They say that there is no Creator outside of creation and everyone has their own Creator.

My Response: Of course. After all, we cannot even compare how He may seem or be revealed to each of us.

Question: But everyone can see this world’s research, let’s say the laws of gravity. Everyone feels it, but each in their own way. I do not know how you feel the law of gravity, but we mean the same thing by this term. What about the Creator? What do you mean, I have my own, while you have your own??

Answer: This is a completely personal investigation of every individual. We can exchange some actions and impressions, but we will never know how similar some reflections or consequences of our study of the Creator are for each of us.

This is a biased study. The Creator is unattainable. It is to the extent of our limitations that we begin to understand it and realize our limitations. But as a result of the development of the Creator’s qualities in us, we begin to attain Him in these qualities. Then we can talk about how we perceive Him in the objective qualities we have developed in ourselves. Then the Creator can already be defined by us as something objective.
