Movement Toward Spirituality

283.01Question: In principle, we constantly work in tens. What are we lacking now, some kind of an impulsive effort, an attack through our internal work in external unity? What do we need to add in our work in the tens in order to succeed?

Answer: We are gradually changing. I can see this from the material I present to you and how it flows. This is not random material. We prepare it before each and every lesson as we move from one phase to another. Then I format my thoughts on Twitter.

I see that we are advancing, the tens are nicely structured, and friends are not indifferent to participating in them. At the beginning, they were forced to work in tens, then they realized that they had no choice because it really must be this way.

Now, they are not in the ten only because they have to be, but even in an egoistic sense they feel that they begin to perceive something through the ten. They understand that through the ten they will reveal the force of redemption, the force of revelation, inspiration,  all desires, all the light, and all of spirituality. I see that they relate to spirituality as something precious, at least as something essential.

At least no one can be indifferent to the ten, and this is the reason that we feel this movement, and it is very good.

528.01The revelation of the Creator comes from the lowest state, from the dust, as it is said: “From dust you are and unto dust you shall return.” We are falling into a state of dust all the time, losing all interest in spiritual desires and tastes. And from this dust, we must rise: “They Helped Every One His Friend.”

A man by himself cannot rise from the descent but only if others set an example and awaken him. Then it will be a correct ascent and not because of egoism. A friend helps me rise, and I help a friend, that is, I work in a group, and forces of connection work here. Only then will it be a spiritual action.

If a person has fallen into the state of dust, then he himself has no strength. The only hope is the ten. I will never be able to find the strength in me to move. The ego is trying to deceive me: “Try, and you will succeed!” But this only works in our world and not in the spiritual world. I can only rise there with the strength of the group: “They Helped Every One His Friend.” Otherwise, it will not be an ascent but self-deception.

I am at the bottom, my friends are at the top, and so we lift each other up like mountain climbers tied together with a rope.

I annul myself before the ten, try to feel less than everyone else, and due to this, I get strength from it. And then with these powers received from my friends, I do the reverse action and help them.

By annulling myself in front of the group, I receive from it a higher power that acts on me and awakens me. I was lower than everyone else, but now with the power received from the group, I influence everyone else, that is, I become like the Creator for them. First I received it from my friends as Malchut, and now I give to them as Keter. So I am working like a piston engine: Malchut – Keter, Keter – Malchut.

Everyone should be both the smallest and the greatest in the ten. If each one in the ten works like this, then we will have an engine with ten cylinders—imagine, what a power! All the pistons together pump up our total volume until the measure overflows and the Creator is revealed inside.

On the first stroke of the piston, I sink into the ten and draw from it the desires of my friends, and on the second stroke, I raise these desires to the Creator. This ascent is called MAN because I ask for everyone, and I receive power from above. And with this power, I go down and pass it on to my friends, get a new desire from them again and raise it as a prayer, MAN.

So I go up and down all the time: MAN – MAD. And so does everyone in the group, all of our ten cylinders. I connect to their desire and I want to raise my friends and bring them closer to the Creator. And from the Creator, I receive a gift of strength, fulfillment, and revelation, and pass it on to my friends. I work as a transmission channel in both directions as I want to raise the whole group to the Creator.

How To Create A Correct Request To The Creator

938.07Question: How can we create a more precise request through the ten?

Answer: You can create a more precise request if together you discuss among yourselves what you want to ask for, what your essential request really is, in order to connect as one man in one heart, in one desire, to the one upper source. Then it will be a real request.

It cannot be just any request. You can express your positive attitude toward the Creator, your gratefulness that He has brought you together, that He has brought you close to Him, and that He wants to feel your desire to get closer to Him, to respond to Him. He has given you such conditions that now you can learn to speak to Him.

You are inside the system and this system is the Creator, and it is waiting to respond to you.

The Ten Is The Sum Of All The Properties Of Nature

939.02Question: Any communication is an interaction between people. Therefore, there must be at least two parties: for example, the speaker and the listener. Can we say that the more participants in communication, the greater the potential for high-quality communication?

Answer: Up to a certain level because we cannot imagine more than ten different properties in order to work with them correctly.

Remark: You always say that exactly ten people are the minimum and optimum for communication.

My Comment: Yes. But if you go further, you must broaden and combine your impressions and sensations, your work, and imagine the whole system, the group people in teams of no more than ten people in order to work with every ten as a unit.

Question: It turns out that I deepen my connection with the other nine friends in the ten, making it better, but I do not expand the group in terms of number?

Answer: You cannot or you will lose sight of all the participants. But if you take this ten as a unit and work with it in this way, you can assemble nine more tens.

Question: Then it is not clear why there are so many people?

Answer: So that we can give each of them the opportunity to exercise freewill.

Question: But there are billions of people in the world whom I will either never see at all or will see, perhaps, once in my life. Where is the communication here? Why is this done?

Answer: In order to break down the entire integral nature into certain limited parts, which in their integrality could be presented as unlimited nature. That is, this is the solution to the problem or squaring a circle or solving an integral by using  the unit method.

Although nature is integral, global, it considers itself not by its components but by properties. But in order to transform individual, small forms into properties, a huge number of these forms is needed.

Question: In principle, ten people are enough for me. And if in my entire life I meet several thousand people and never the rest, then should I not worry about it? This is not the goal of nature.

Answer: You can take only a dozen people arbitrarily and find among them absolutely all the laws and properties of nature.

The Smallest Unit Of Society Is The Ten

165Question: In order for communication to exist, rules for receiving and transmitting, encoding and decoding information are necessary. What are these rules, i.e., laws of giving and receiving? Can one learn this?

Answer: Yes, people must be educated in this. Communication skills are essential. We see how their absence leads us to misunderstanding each other, to seclusion. Communication is practically everything.

The fact is that all of us, originally created as egoists, believe that we can live with our egoism in peace and have no need for anyone at all. And if we do need someone, it is only someone I can tolerate and use to some extent. But this is absolutely wrong. It is necessary to explain to people that the smallest unit of society is not the family but ten people. The family is a beastly unit. And a social unit is ten people who are close to you in spirit, who have one common goal in life, and they embody it. In this circumstance, a person can develop to absolutely infinite states.

Question: Can this ten change over the course of a lifetime?

Answer: Yes.

Question: So, by ten, you mean an internal term and not a number of people: ten people?

Answer: Ten people is also a physical quantity that contains ten different combinations of individual desires. In Kabbalah, they are called points in the heart.

The Guest And The Host Meet Inside The Ten

934We read Kabbalistic texts and do not know how to understand what is written because we do not belong to the system of the common soul, which consists of ten Sefirot or to a group in which we must find a connection with our friends.

I read “faith above reason” and I don’t know what to do with it. And the action is very simple: unite so that there is no difference between me and the others, and we all become like the ten Sefirot of one spiritual Partzuf.

If we connect in this way, we will begin to feel what is spiritual, what a Partzuf is, and how the Creator works within it. We will already be in another world. Instead of people, I will feel the ten Sefirot within which the upper force operates. This will already be the upper world, not our world.

In this way, I will cross from world to world, and in this form, I will continue to exist. I will take care of the material because I have not yet completely detached myself from it and completely moved into the spiritual, but I perceive it as a secondary thing.

I will take care of my body like a horse or donkey that exists around me and supports my life. But all my spiritual work concerning the Creator takes place within this Kli where we all connect together.

Inside this vessel, the Creator gives me filling as a Host, and I accept it as a guest. All this is only inside the ten. We meet the Creator as a guest and a Host within the ten: “I am my beloved’s and my beloved is mine.”

This is all our work. And so, reading about faith above reason, you need to think about how to implement what is written in the ten. And if a person does not have a ten, he should try to find one as soon as possible. Otherwise, all his advancement will remain only written on paper and will never be implemented.

After all, Kabbalah is a practical, applicable science that teaches us from lesson to lesson how to realize our unity more and more until we begin to reveal the Creator in it more and more.

And so we bond with each other until we return to one soul as it existed before the sin of Adam HaRishon with the Tree of Knowledge, and we feel within our connection the Creator and the entire upper world, our eternal state. In other words, we already reach eternity by having risen to the level of bestowal, faith above reason.

544Comment: Communication as an informational interaction is based on the principle of feedback. You said that there is an opportunity to unite even if others do not know about it, and you cited the example of sages who could unite the whole world in themselves, but other people did not feel it.

My Response: It is not at all necessary that people feel this; the main thing is that the person who performs the unification should feel a connection with them.

Comment: But communication implies feedback, and it turns out that there is none here.

My Response: This is communication in which I do not need more than ten people. We are created in such a way that if I take nine more friends as my partners, then together we can create an absolutely complete, integral system that will be similar to the common, integral nature.

Question: So, even if only two people interact, there should still be feedback?

Answer: Yes. If we interact with each other in the ten, we will find in it absolutely all the laws of the universe: both spiritual and material.

Holding The Steering Wheel Of The Management Of Creation

934A ten, the minimal system that resembles the whole of creation, can impact everything. This means that you have the steering wheel by which you can impact not only our world, but also all the worlds.

If you mutually cooperate correctly in the ten, you ascend to a higher level in the hierarchy of mutual cooperation of the whole system. To the extent that you are connected between you, this is the impact from the level in which you find the connections between you in the ten. Then you really have the steering wheel in your hands.

And people around you will begin to understand that we are entering a special living system, which actually exists and which actually impacts the whole world. It is only to the extent that we participate correctly in the ten, that we participate openly and practically all over the world, in the whole system of creation, in all the worlds.

What is this principle? There are 125 levels of spiritual attainment, and we have to ascend to the first level. To the extent that we unite in a ten, we will begin to determine our state on the spiritual ladder and thus ascend. The greater the unity in the ten, the higher the level we will ascend. The more we unite, the higher the level we will ascend.

The higher you are, the wider perspective you automatically have of the integral system of all the worlds, and thus you impact them more accordingly. This means that the steering wheel is gradually revealed, and thanks to it, you can navigate and manage things a bit to the left and a bit to the right. You begin to understand the gradual cooperation of all the elements in the system. You will be able to actually manage them at least like in a plane, and it will be even more concrete than being a navigator in the cockpit.

You will see the extent to which all the levels of inanimate, vegetative,  animate, and speaking nature that are in you, and the levels that are in the ten, in the connection between you, will be connected and tuned to perceiving the impact of the whole system by the ten, and to manage it through the ten.

This is the phase that we have to adapt to realistically this year. I am truly hopeful that we will reach it. The main thing is to invoke the desire to want to feel that inside us, to participate in the giant schema of the whole creation and to be inside it!

A person needs to understand how the system exists in mutual cooperation, how it breathes, how he impacts it, and how it impacts him. There cannot be any special revelations in the levels of of inanimate, vegetative, and animate nature that operate instinctively and quite primitively.

However, on the level of the speaking is our world group and also some other small groups that are relatively striving to reach this feeling of creation in their own way. Other than that, the souls that have already been through these phases of evolution and are on different levels also connect here and exist in this dimension.

Penetrating Inside A Ten

942Question: I have a regular great ten, and we prepare for the lesson together and support each other during the day. During the day, however, I create other tens in order to disseminate or do different jobs in the building.

As a result I feel a bit uncomfortable. How should I build the relations with the regular ten and with the collective corporeal life with the others?

Answer: You should be glad and feel comfortable because it is basically the same thing. There aren’t any differences between the tens.

I look at the tens that are in front of me, and I would gladly sit with any of them. Each ten is so wonderful in its uniqueness, and it is absolutely amazing to see how wonderful it is!

I see how they speak, how they communicate between them, how they mutually cooperate, and how connected they are. It is amazing how different they all are, but I would gladly be part of one or another or yet another. It really helps us develop! And it is very good when one person can be part of several tens.

I was in favor of random tens from the start, but at the moment people feel better in regular tens, and I understand them. I think this will soon pass.

When the internal model of a ten will appear in each of us, we will be able to fill it by connecting to more people who are members of our movement. We will not feel the people themselves, but their internal essence, and they will begin to fill the model of the ten that is built in us. This means that ten seemingly empty places will be created inside each one, and will be filled by impressions from one circle or another.

This will provide a person with quicker and fuller attainment of the whole soul. After all, the general soul is not made of one primitive ten, but of many tens, each of which is integrated in another.

By penetrating the spiritual connection in the ten, we will begin to understand what it lacks. We would like to divide it into parts, but this is impossible since we don’t feel that yet. Therefore, it is necessary to understand that all of creation should be composed of a great amount of tens, which means that the Sefirot are divided into many tens, or vice versa, and are connected into many Partzufim, and thus, into one whole ten.

But this whole ten that is attained in the world of Ein Sof (Infinity) comprises an infinite amount of tens. So it is through this ten that you will receive more than from all the other tens, an infinite amount of feelings and emotions.

It All Starts With A Drop Of Semen

232.07The human body begins with a drop of semen: a single cell that multiplies and forms new cells. But all of them implement the very program that was laid in the first cell that started it all.

The drop of semen already has all the information. One day scientists will learn to decode this information so that one cell will show the entire person that will develop from it, his entire fate and abilities, whether he will be a great scientist or a musician.

It is all there, in a drop of semen, but only in potential. If these potential forces get the material to work with, they will begin to build the human body according to the program placed in the first cell where every organ and every cell of a large healthy organism is described. We only need to provide food, the material, for its construction.

It is the same with our desire. In each of us there is a point, the first drop obtained as a result of shattering. Our common body was shattered into many parts, and if we join into ten, we will restore the drop of semen, the desire. In addition, we will draw the light that reforms.

We need two things: desire and light. On one hand, there are our ten potential forces, and on the other hand comes the light that reforms, which will connect them back into one drop of semen. None of us can become a drop of semen, each of us is only a tenth of the seed from which the soul will develop.

We draw the upper light, which connects us and begins to form a larger and larger spiritual structure called the soul or Partzuf.

Therefore, we must try to unite and from this unity turn to the Creator so that He can send us the light that reforms that will develop us. These are the two areas of our work.

It seems to me that the Creator gives me foreign thoughts that throw me out. But this reveals new forces of egoistic desires inside the ten, which must be added as fuel. Thanks to this, the ten will strengthen, grow fat, and build itself.

However, when we receive this additional fuel, it has not yet been processed correctly, and therefore feels like foreign forces of separation. If in spite of this, we join together, then we swallow this force inside ourselves and expand and grow at the expense of it. This is how waste is turned into food.
