Question: What happens to the point in the heart if someone comes to the group with enthusiasm and after some time leaves for some reason? Is it possible to see what happens to his point in the heart?

Answer: Of course. Unfortunately, there are such cases. If someone leaves the group, it means that he goes back to this lowest world, and refuses spiritual advancement. As a rule, this comes from the fact that his pride will disallow him to lower himself before his friends and join the group.

He needs to understand that no matter how low, small, or insignificant the group might seem to him, he must lower himself, enter into it, and be together with everyone on an equal or even lower level.

Read what Rabash writes about inclusion in the group.

A Kabbalist feels the death of the physical body as if one were changing a shirt. If the main thing is me, not the shirt, that is, the soul, not the body, then each time I change shirts, due to this I change,I get more and more elegant attire.

There is nothing scary about death except the loss of the ability to make corrections. But if I didn’t make corrections in this life, I can calmly return the shirt because I have nothing to regret.

Question: Why does a Kabbalist work on a correction every time as if starting to live anew, nevertheless have to die at some point too and change his body?

Answer: There is a huge difference between the forms that a person changes throughout one’s life and the new form for which one must die. This will be a new reality, a significant modernization, as if I were constantly repairing my computer by installing new programs on it, and at some point, I suddenly found out that the computer itself was no longer suitable and would have to be changed.

Question: If the state of spiritual upliftment experienced at the congress is spiritual, and nothing disappears in spirituality, does this mean that I can always turn to it and receive forces from it in my current states?

Answer: No, we do not turn to the past. We strive only for future states so that they would hold us, bind us, and guide us forward.

There is no need to regret the past and try to return to it again. Only forward!

Even if it seems to you that the state you are in is worse than the previous one, it is nevertheless new because every day a new Reshimo, new informational record, new broken Kli (vessel), appears in us and we must assemble it. Therefore, each time we work at a higher level.

If the friends externally fulfill the requirements of students, participate in lessons and in the meetings of friends, then I don’t have the right to leave them. The Creator brought me to them, and I must work with them.

Especially now, in our time, to be in a Kabbalistic group is a happy opportunity received from above. The Creator pulls us toward Him.

If a person at least somehow relates to this process, more or less, then I don’t conduct any criticism, for me the main thing is to be connected with everyone in whom there is such a desire. Believe me, we are in a special state called the Exodus from Egypt. This is the outcome of not just one small group led by Abraham, but of representatives of all humankind, all people, all walks of life.

We all want to exit our egoism, to rise and unite with the Creator. The Creator helps us in this, it is not by accident that the coronavirus epidemic has come, which facilitates the exodus from egoism.

The Creator wants to show us how wrong our connection is, and therefore He puts us apart from each other through the coronavirus. Now we need to understand how to connect again, but in the right form. As soon as we are ready to connect correctly, the virus will disappear.

We will not return to the old world, but will come to a new connection, to a new society, to new occupations. Life will not be the same as it was before the coronavirus. Therefore, it is necessary to explain to all of humanity what the Creator requires of us. It is friendship toward each other, it is love in order to reveal the properties of bestowal, it is unity between us, and from love for the creatures to come to love for the Creator.

Answer: When you study, you must annul yourself, subdue yourself, in order to learn something.

Question: Is it said that the Creator plays with the Leviathan (whale)? What does it mean?

Answer: The Leviathan symbolizes the total creation, billions of people.

Question: That is, all events, everything that passes through me, everything I feel, is like the Creator’s game with me?

Answer: Of course. In order for you to start seeing the world as something connecting you with the Creator.

Question: But why does man not feel that there is this force, the Creator who plays with him?

Answer: Man has not reached that level yet. He must achieve this state. In the meantime, from everything that comes to him from the world, he accepts only the most necessary things for existence, which means he lives normally, like ordinary people in our world.

But what does “normally” mean? If all his aspirations are aimed at revealing the upper world and the Creator, then he unwittingly receives everything necessary in a natural way. He does not limit himself, but simply does not want more because all his thoughts are higher than his corporeal body. And then he rushes to the Creator and feels Him.

Question: Every day we are in a new sensation, and yesterday’s attainment becomes today’s knowledge. How can I reach the next state, something new I can work with before the Creator begins to push me?

Answer: Only through connection with friends. Then you develop a new Kli, a new desire to combine your common desires and thus move forward. You cannot advance simply by knowledge because the conventional study of materials gives practically nothing.

You need to act for the sake of connection between you, and then the Creator will influence you, your mutual connections. Thus, from connection with friends, you will come to connection with the Creator and begin to reveal Him. And if you do it alone, then you will not achieve anything.

This is written in thousands of Kabbalistic sources.

Everything Starts from Passover

Question: It is not clear why after Purim, that is after a person, having corrected his desires, becomes similar to the Creator, Passover begins again?

Answer: It is because all the holidays (Hagim) are a circuit, from the word “Mechuga,” moving in the circle.

Everything starts from Passover, which represents the exit from Egypt, that is the revelation of egoism.
Pharaoh represents egoism, which is gradually revealing within us.

Moses (Moshe), from the word “Limshoch,” is the force that pulls us out of egoism and leads out of Egypt.

Ten plagues are ten restrictions that push us toward the exit from Egypt; without them we would not leave it.

Question: Does it mean that a person should feel ten blows on one’s egoism?

Answer: Yes. They are manifested in the awareness of egoistic evil. You begin to understand that your nature is evil.

When a person enters Egypt, he feels darkness, complete hopelessness, he can do nothing with his life, with himself, because egoism buries him alive in the ground.

This was described by Kabbalists based on their inner feelings.

Question: One of the Egyptian plagues is the killing of all the firstborns. What does this mean?

Answer: Children are our future. Killing them means that a person does not see the future in his egoism.

Question: So the Kabbalists sensed these states and made the analogy of our world, for example, the killing of the firstborn and the Egyptian darkness, and described them?

Answer: It is absolutely obvious that these actions in the spiritual world should produce such consequences in our world. This is why this is described in the language of our world.

Question: Did these firstborns really die in Egypt?

Answer: No. The Torah describes everything that happens at the upper degrees within us when we are working on ourselves, trying to exit Egypt, receive the light called “the Torah,” a state of spiritual elevation, which is called the Land of Israel, and so on.

How do we exit our egoism? We exit our desire to enjoy and want to be in connection with each other. Therefore, nobody pays attention to himself anymore but only to what is between us. And between us is spiritual space. It is outside of me.

I am my egoism, outside of it is the force of love and bestowal, the Creator, a place called the upper world. There is the goal of our lives, the purpose of creation, which we must reach.

Each time, to the extent that we rise above our egoism, our “I,” and take a step toward a friend, we begin to feel the spiritual world, the upper force, a reality outside of us, outside of our ego. Thus, we have the opportunity to move away from the coronavirus. This virus pushes us out of our egoism; it forces us to exit our “I.”

This is the most effective and proper remedy. Exiting egoism is the solution to all the problems; the virus is sent to cure egoism. It shows us the need to rise above our egoism, above our “I,” and connect with others. This is how we find the right remedy and properly correct our state.

I must run away from myself, the egoist, into the space between us, to where the spiritual world, the Creator is. But I do not understand what “between us” is. This is a space that I don’t feel the existence of, yet. But we must strive for connection, then we will feel that on this bridge between my egoism and yours is the upper world, another dimension, that is one level above us.

This is where we find the land of Israel (“land” means desire and “Israel” means straight to the Creator, Yashar-Kel), this is where we can yearn for the Creator and be able to feel Him, this is where He exists. This is where the future world is, our spiritual eternal life—everything is only there, in the connection between us.

Therefore, loving the friends as yourself is the main law of all corrections within which the Creator dwells.

Connection with friends becomes more important to me than myself. The more important my friend is, the greater is my advancement, and the further removed I am from this world until the spiritual world becomes more important to me, that is, love and bestowal to the friends, our connection becomes more important than myself.

It means that I break the barrier between Egypt and Israel, cross the Red Sea (Final Sea), the final borderline beyond which there is no turning back. After all, prior to this, there is still a danger of returning to Egypt.

Question: Is it worth taking care and worrying about the health of the planet and not indulging in excesses, not getting involved in chemicals?

Answer: Kabbalah says absolutely nothing about that. It says that you must engage in attaining a higher goal. Then everything else will also return to normal and will naturally fit in your efforts to correct the soul.

Do just that. Do not waste your time on preservation of nature and everything else. Nothing of the kind is needed. You have no idea what the laws are behind all this.

If you strive for your soul’s correction, then you naturally include all other conditions for the world’s correction.
