The more I include myself in the ten, depicting that the Creator is there, the more I tune my soul like a musical string relative to other strings. The group should set themselves up like a violin so that everyone is like one person with one heart. And then the Creator will be revealed in us.

The Creator dresses in the violin and plays it if it is correctly tuned relative to Him and all its strings are ready. We ourselves do not play this violin, the Creator plays the whole ten together.

The lights flow into our Kelim and flow out and give rise to many harmonics, that is, glow at all levels, because the Sefirot are divided into main, particular, and subordinate, smaller ones. We feel all this as a conversation between the Creator and us, in this form He is revealed in all our sensations arising as a result of the correct connection between friends.

Everyone in the ten must tune their string so that the Creator dresses in our violin. And it depends only on the relations between friends, how much they become more important to me, and I understand that without them I will not achieve anything.

If the friends suddenly disappear, then I will lose all connection with the spiritual. A complete disconnection will happen. Therefore, it is necessary to constantly strengthen the connection in the ten and take care of all the friends as the dearest thing in life.

There is nothing but this. For me, friends are even more important than the Creator, although He is the source and the purpose. But friends are more important because losing them, I will lose everything and already will not be able to find them. I cannot just go from one ten to another ten, it is only possible at the initial stage.

But in fact, this is such a connection that it is impossible to change. It is a huge tragedy when a person is kicked out of the ten or leaves the ten because of some kind of conflict, not having found understanding among his friends or having failed to understand them.

Baal HaSulam, Shamati, Article 34, “The Profit of a Land”: “Hence, it is impossible to attain something in complete clarity if its parallel is absent. For example: it is impossible to estimate and say that something is good, if its opposite is missing, pointing to the bad. It is the same with bitterness and sweetness, love and hate, hunger and satiation, thirst and saturation, adhesion and separation. It turns out that it is impossible to come to love adhesion prior to acquiring the hate of separation.”

If we want to be wise and able to appreciate any state, we need to be in the opposite state, and then we can appreciate what we have. In such a case, we feel the fear of losing what we have, we appreciate what we have, and we do not let go.

This is the true feeling of closeness.

Question: Do we need to constantly feel this trepidation?

Answer: We must. Loving someone, maintaining a constant feeling of anxiety, fear of losing this love, this is a great skill. Otherwise, this love is childish, worthless.

Question: Why is it not enough to simply get over the separation to attain love, but we must hate the separation?

Answer: What does it mean to get over something? You get over and you forget? No! Then you will not feel love but just a slight pleasant feeling. It is said about this that “there is none so wise as the experienced,” that having been through all the states and appreciating the joy of what he has, compared to the fear that he might also lose it, then he really guards what he has. Otherwise, everything will be lost.

In principle, the many lifetimes that we are given are so that we will accumulate experience, will start to appreciate what we have, and will find true happiness. And it will consist of the opposite of the bad state. This is how we were created;  we are created beings and are opposite from the Creator.

Faith above reason is the spiritual stage that we need to build on top of our current stage which is called “reason.”

At the higher level, it is not me ruling with my desires, sensations, and reason; only the Creator rules. This is the highest level for me in which “There is none but the Creator, the good that doeth good.” It is called the level of faith. I can relate to it provided that I “believe,” that is, I acquire the property of bestowal or Bina.

I rise above myself and say: “I have eyes, but do not see. I have ears, but do not hear”; that is, I accept the authority of the Creator. And, as far as I can decide for myself that only the Creator acts in all of reality, my spiritual level of faith is higher than reason.

Therefore, all of our work, from this moment to the end of correction, is to achieve a greater and greater degree of faith above reason. There are a total of 125 steps to climb so that each time our power of bestowal, which is called faith, outweighs the power of reception, which is called reason.

After all, we do not understand the Creator and do not feel Him. Each time, we must comprehend Him from scratch, coming from a state of the complete unknown and insensibility to a state of reason and sensation, that is, from an unconscious state into a state of consciousness.

And, therefore, I must fully accept the governance of the Creator, it reigning over my whole world. This is called faith. I hold, as far as I can, in the knowledge and the feeling that the Creator is the only ruler in the world.

Question: In one of the programs you spoke about the fact that it is easier for a criminal to understand the Creator because he is partly free of his ego. Is that so?

Answer: The Creator “loves” criminals because it is easier to talk to them. We are speaking about spiritual criminals who understand that they cannot resist their egoistic desires, that they are weak and need help and support, and so it is easier with them.

The wisdom of Kabbalah tells us a lot about different human weaknesses. It is not that they are welcome, but that their revelation is welcome because it is actually thanks to the fact that a person reveals these states internally that one gets closer to the Creator.

Question: What needs to be done to raise MAN for the friends as quickly as possible?

Answer: There is no need to wait for the right moment. You can constantly feel that you are in a group even if you are not physically with us and to always think about how you can increase the connection between friends. And that’s it.

Make efforts so that this desire is constantly excited in you. It will pull you all the time, and you will feel that you need to do something until you begin to feel the network of connection between yourself and your friends as one whole.

Question: Who are the Tanaim Kabbalists?

Answer: We will not see such Kabbalists as the Tanaim and the Amoraim. They lived thousands of years ago and were great people. Each one of them was in great likeness to the Creator.

For example, Rabbi Shimon, the author of The Book of Zohar, is called “Tana” because he belonged to the Tanaim group who were great Kabbalists. Then, what is called the decline of the generations occurred. Therefore, in our time, we are the smallest and most insignificant in comparison to them.

Thanks to the fact that we can use their methodology and be connected to them through their works and the implementation of their recommendations, we can also join the general correction.

It must be remembered that egoism is given to us from above; the revelation of egoism comes from the Creator. And therefore it is necessary to work with it methodically every time, more and more, and not wait for  selfishness to disappear. On the contrary, the further we advance, the more egoism, stupidity, cruelty, and arrogance will be revealed and we must work with all of it.

You need to get used to it and you must not quit, despair, or turn off your computer; you must simply continue and continue, even on all fours if you have to, but crawl to the goal.

And my friends will help me; I am them and they are me. Everything is arranged so that we can always go forward if we try to complement each other. When I want to help my comrades and they want to help me then, even if none of us has strength, we will find strength within our union.

This is not a force within each of us; there can be no force inside of any of us! There are ten people and not one of them has any strength. But since we want to connect, we suddenly reveal the power between us. This power is the Creator that is between us. We use His power and not our own.

And therefore, if each one of us is exhausted, if we are all full zeros, this is the best condition and you cannot turn off the screen and leave the group! Because it is in this state that we begin to reveal the power that is between us, that is, the Creator. Inside of ourselves, of course, there are no forces, but we will reveal a higher power.

Therefore, it is precisely because of despair, powerlessness, hopelessness, misunderstanding, supporting each other, and making efforts, despite the fatigue, that we are approaching the revelation of the Creator. This work is called,  trekking through the desert, from which we derive the power of bestowal. Passing through the desert, we ascend from Malchut to Bina.

Question: How can one reveal the Creator?

Answer: It is possible to reveal the Creator only if you are in a corresponding group, study Kabbalah, and begin to follow the rules for revealing the Creator. Practically the entire science of Kabbalah is the science of revealing the Creator to man in this world.

Question: Why is Kabbalah considered a science and not a teaching?

Answer: Because we reveal what exists around us and it is all inanimate, vegetative, animate, and human nature. A comprehension of the surrounding nature and its study is a science.

What do the sciences of our world reveal, such as physics, chemistry, biology, zoology, botany, etc.? They discover the space surrounding us filled with inanimate, vegetative and animate bodies.

Kabbalah reveals not only what we see and feel, but the force behind it called the Creator. And then we begin to understand how everything is arranged, and why all of it is presented and given to us so.

If we scrutinize the concept of Ein Sof (Infinity), we will see that this concept does not actually exist. It exists only in our desires, which are not yet stabilized.

By the concept of Ein Sof or limitlessness, we are referring to a state in which the light illuminates without restriction (Tzimtzum), and we are totally open to its impact. We usually give this example: If we fill a glass completely, it will be in a state of Ein Sof because in this state the glass does not limit the filling in any way. This means that Ein Sof, infinity, means without end, without limit. We need to reach this state and open ourselves to the perception of the Creator limitlessly.

How do we perceive the Creator inside us? We name everything that we attain within our limits according to the attributes that we operate within in order to perceive and understand something. This is the reason that we measure the Creator who fills us in a clear and very accurate manner according to size, volume, weight, and according to our desires; this is how we advance.

We always define the Creator in letters, which means according to the way we perceive Him in our attributes, and not according to who He actually is because He does not have any attributes and there is no specific attribute there. We say that He is the good that does good, that He fills and heals, which means that everything we feel inside of us comes from Him, but we cannot attain who He actually is.

Question: Can a person feel one’s soul develop?

Answer: At a certain point, a person begins to feel that a soul is developing within him and that it is demanding certain actions from him. Sometimes a person performs instructions blindly, not knowing whether they arrive from within him or from nature that dictates them to him. Perhaps the Creator wants him to behave in a certain way and to perform actions that may turn out to be as if he were forced to perform them.]

On the whole, there are versatile, mutual relations between a person and the Creator.
