Question: Abraham always had his nephew Lot by his side. What is this quality that constantly walks next to Abraham?

Answer: Spiritual qualities always consist of a positive and a  negative part because it is impossible to define, recognize, and count anything or direct to something if there are not two opposite qualities.

Therefore, Lot is the quality opposite to Abraham, and on the other hand, also helps Abraham to manifest himself. That is, Abraham is manifested through Lot.

Question: Do they need to part at some stage?

Answer: Naturally. Abraham says: “If you go right, I will go left.” That is, later they separated.

Remark: Pharaoh was chasing after the people when they were leaving Egypt, but when entering the land of Israel no one chases you.

My Comment: When approaching the land of Israel you, yourself, consciously go forward. It is not good to put pressure on you all the time from behind.

The reason for leaving Egypt was to flee from suffering, from the ten Egyptian plagues. And now it is not. Now we are urging people, with our own awareness of the need to cleanse ourselves from egoistic intentions, to cleanse our desires in order to reveal the Creator in them and thereby give Him pleasure.

Question: What is the difference between the fact that the Red Sea parted and the waters of the Jordan parted? What is the difference between these two states inside a person?

Answer: The waters of the Red Sea part when the border between the power of Pharaoh and the power of the Creator is removed. In principle, this is one and the same power, only it manifests itself in different ways.

Question: Can we say that there is a spiritual birth?

Answer: In principle, spiritual birth does not happen overnight. This is a long-term process, just like in our world.

Remark: But when leaving Egypt, one still had to go by faith above reason. Without this, it is impossible to cross the sea. And the people still enter it!

My Comment: It is the same here. In all these, so to speak, journeys, miracles, they rise above their egoism all the time. Only sometimes this happens with the help of war, a dash, a jump into the sea, crossing over the Jordan, and so on. But still it goes through overcoming.

Remark: Nachshon was in Egypt. There were no priests to enter the water and the sea parted.

My Comment: But the property of Bina is not there yet! And in the land of Israel this property of bestowal and connection dominates. Therefore, they have to feel and behave in a different way. And the tasks facing them are completely different: not to run, but to conquer.

Question: Before the people entered the land of Israel, it was called Canaan—from the word “Leachnia,” to belittle oneself. What does this mean inside a person?

Answer: This is the property of Abraham, who constantly annuls himself before the Creator. If a person in his advancement attains the desire (land, Eretz—from the word “Ratzon,” desire), to bring himself even closer to the Creator, then this is called coming to the land of Canaan.

Question: Although in corporeality Abraham came to Canaan from ancient Babylon, then descended to Egypt and again went to Canaan, then to Beersheba, Sodom and Gomorrah, all these movements took place inside a person. Are these changes of states?

Answer: Of course! This is exactly what happens and it is the most important thing. This refers to internal, not external changes.

Question: It is said that Abraham sat in a tent and taught everyone who wanted to hear. What did he teach them?

Answer: The principle of monotheism, which is the highest positive force (the property of bestowal) that governs the whole world, and it is this property that we must worship and cultivate in ourselves in every possible way.

Question: Abraham was forced to leave Nimrod from Babylon to Canaan. But there was a famine, and he still had to go down to Egypt. What does it mean?

Answer: Abraham, being only in the quality of bestowal, could not fill himself in serving the Creator, in congruence with Him in properties.

Therefore, he had to open his desire to egoistic properties, so that at a certain combination between egoistic and altruistic properties—receiving and giving—he could correctly become like the Creator.

Prophets, Joshua, Part 3, 14-17: And it was, when the people moved from their tents, to cross the Jordan, and the priests bearing the Ark of the covenant were before the people.

And when the bearers of the Ark came to the Jordan, and the feet of the priests that bore the Ark were dipped in the edge of the water, and the Jordan overflows all its banks all the time of harvest.

And the waters which came down from above stood and rose up in one column, very far from Adam, the city which is beside Zarethan; and those that descended to the sea of the plain, the Salt Sea (Dead Sea), were completely cut off, and the people passed over opposite Jericho.

And the priests that bore the Ark of the covenant of the Lord stood firm arranged on the dry land in the midst of the Jordan, and all Israel passed over on dry ground, until the whole nation had completely passed over the Jordan.

The River Jordan is a very serious boundary between desires that are not directed toward the Creator, they are outside the land of Israel, and desires that are directed at the Creator.

Therefore, if you are still outside of Israel, outside of the desires for the Creator, you have completely different states. You can allow yourself, as they say, to take a walk in selfish desires, although this is still a borderline land.

But entering the land of Israel suggests that you are completely transformed, have changed your intentions into bestowal, connection, and love. This is the only way you can be inside the newly acquired properties, travel in this land, i.e., change your internal properties.

There is no reference to any geography here. All movements occur only within the desires, the best, the biggest, etc. You are fighting with your egoistic properties, which suddenly manifest themselves in you as intentions. This is already a much more serious, more internal struggle.

Question: It is written: “the feet of the priests that bore the Ark were dipped in the edge of the water, and the Jordan…” What does it say here?

Answer: These are completely different properties, a completely different relationship between a person’s desire and nature, which the Creator created specifically to correct a person, to raise him to His level.

The land of Israel is already the place, the desires, in which the Creator is located. And it is necessary that a person clearly feels where the boundary is between the Creator’s desires and other desires that are distant from Him.

Question: Is the “priest” in a person something very pure?

Answer: Yes, it is the very first sacred quality with which he wants to get closer to the Creator. After all, this is just a journey to come to adhesion with the Creator.

If with this intention you enter the new desires that have never been manifested before, that is, you are heading for a new, completely different degree, then you are moving forward.

The wisdom of Kabbalah says that we must create such a society, such a connection between us that would be similar to the spiritual connection between souls. Then we will discover that we exist in a completely different dimension.

We will turn our attention to creating a more truthful connection between us. We are not talking about physical connection; rather, we will think how we can connect our inner desires, aspirations, and yearnings with other people, regardless of distances, language barriers, and any misunderstanding between us.

We must act in such a way that the contact between all people in the world will become absolutely open so that they would not feel any semantic, linguistic, or psychological barriers and could overcome any obstacles in communication with each other.

If we strive to create such a system of interconnection, we will really reach the next level of interaction, and this will make our relations completely different.

Question: How are the five spiritual senses revealed in the ten?

Answer: A spiritual Partzuf includes: Keter, Hochma, Bina, Zeir Anpin, and Malchut. Zeir Anpin is made of six parts: Hesed, Gevura, Tiferet, Netzach, Hod, and Yesod. So there is Ketter – 1, Hochma – 1, Bina – 1, Zeir Anpin – 6, and Malchut – 1. All together 10 Sefirot.

Each friend in the ten feels all five spiritual senses because the ten is one whole, like a single spiritual body or soul.

So you all have one soul. The fact is that in this world we all have one soul and this structure is called “soul,” or Adam.

In this spiritual body you reveal five senses called Keter, Hochma, Bina, Zeir Apin and Malchut.

Deuteronomy 34:9: And Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom, because Moses had laid his hands upon him. And the children of Israel obeyed him, and they did as the Lord had commanded Moses.

Question: What is the blessing that Moses gave Joshua Ben Nun to enter the land of Israel?

Answer: This cannot be explained because it is not a man but all the spiritual systems that govern us and the spirit that reigns in the souls that seek for correction. That is why they are included in the system called “Eretz Yisrael.”

It is not the corporeal land on which they stamp their feet, walk through the desert, climb over mountains, and head from the Jordan toward Jerusalem. These are internal changes in the souls that understand how to correct themselves and agree to overcome the egoistic obstacles that appear among them.

The blessing is the connection between the previous step and the next one.

Question: Does “Moses” in us, the property of bestowal and love, seem to say: “I am connected with you, I will be with you all the time; enter the land of Israel.” Is this a blessing?

Answer: Yes, but only if we really follow the path of Moses, the path of the Creator.

Any state can only be corrected by our connection; this is the only means. We again find ourselves in the next wave of the pandemic, which is manifesting and intensifying all over the world. I warned at the very beginning of the coronavirus pandemic that it would not end quickly. Therefore, I believe that vaccinations should not be neglected.

It is necessary to follow the principle “the doctor is given permission to heal” despite all shortcomings we know about medicine as well as its advantages. Medicine cannot be better than the people for whom it is intended. Doctors are not angels, and all shortcomings that exist in medicine are exactly what we need as uncorrected egoists.

If we were better, we would be cured by other methods, with the help of the light. In the meantime, we have to be treated with the same light but clothed in chemicals. Therefore, you need to listen to the doctors.

Take an example from my teacher Rabash. Every week we would visit a doctor: an ophthalmologist, a dermatologist, an otolaryngologist. He meticulously followed their instructions. And these were traditional doctors, not some miracle healers. He approached this issue very simply, materialistically.

I warned in advance that the coronavirus would not disappear so easily, that it would return. Now there is its second or third wave, and you will see how many more such waves there will be. Therefore, it is worth getting vaccinated: the only way we go together both in material and in spiritual form according to the principle “the doctor is given permission to heal.” The very doctor who belongs to the uncorrected medicine is the most suitable for our uncorrected qualities.

Correct your properties into spiritual ones, and material medicine will also change for the better. But for now, we get what we deserve, one matches the other. And this happens in everything, in any life situation. We will become more corrected, and our world will be corrected. The air, water, and natural conditions will improve, volcanoes and typhoons will subside. It all depends on our internal state.

And this should be approached from a spiritual, not from a material, point of view without inventing your own methods of correction and healing.

Prophets, Joshua, Chapter 2:1: And Joshua the son of Nun sent two men out of Shittim to spy secretly, saying, Go see the land and Jericho.

Joshua sends spies to the land of Israel for two reasons: the first, in order to know in advance where they are going and the second, to be afraid of the place where they are going because huge new desires are revealed there.

If you can overpower them, then you can conquer the land of Israel, that is, choose those desires that the egoism holds in itself with horrendous force, snatch them from it, and use them for bestowal.

Question: If earlier this verification was not successful because the spies came and said: “We are unable to go up against the people, for they are stronger than we,” is it possible now?

Answer: Yes. However, this is not just another check, but a correction. Therefore, this is not just some action, some game just in case. This is a very serious job.

Frankly speaking, if I imagine the state of being at the entrance to the land of Israel, then I get scared because these are such huge internal egoistic obstacles that shake a person and he must overcome them. But how? Where to get strength from? Unbelievable!

Question: What is the city of Jericho within us?

Answer: It is a terrible city. To this day, it is very problematic. There was even a prophecy that it should not be restored. As you drive up to it, you see what an alien and ancient this place is.

That is, it is a place that is practically impossible to correct. It really is on the border between impurity (Klipa) and holiness (Kedusha). Therefore, Jericho must fall first.

“Prophets,” Joshua, Chapter 1, items 2-3: Moses my servant has died; and now arise cross this Jordan, you and all this nation, to the land which I give the children of Israel. Every place on which the soles of your feet will tread I have given to you, as I have spoken to Moses.

Question: What is this border Jordan within a person that we must cross in order to enter the state of the last generation?

Answer: This is the border behind which nature begins to demand from us the fulfillment of new, additional spiritual laws. If earlier, before entering the land of Israel, we could behave at a certain, rather mediocre level of communication, then, crossing this border, we can no longer act like this.

These borders are very clearly marked on all sides: depending on when you enter, how you enter, from which side. However, in principle, the laws of the land of Israel (Eretz Israel) mean crossing not physical, but spiritual borders.

This crossing does not take place somewhere in the mountains or on land, but within a person, when he feels that, from this point onward, he should direct all his thoughts only to the Creator and only to the quality of bestowal. If we do this, then we will indeed cross the border and enter the land of Israel.
