Insist on Getting Closer

931.01Question: What does the concept of “engaging in elevating the Creator” encompass?

Answer: It means that a person’s intention is to cause the Creator to ascend gradually through their actions. This is his entire reward.

Question: How can we clarify whether our actions elevate the Creator in our minds and hearts?

Answer: You do it by trying to connect with other groups on the issues you are discussing. In this way, you will feel yourself gradually drawing closer.

And what is very important, not to detach from one another after the lessons, after the exercises, but rather insist on closeness and unification within the ten and between the tens.

Hasten Spiritual Time

275Question: Can we say that we need to strive to hasten the movement from one form to another? Upon reaching a certain degree, should we not so much enjoy the new level but look toward the next degree, and thus move toward a new crisis of transition into the next form?

Answer: That is absolutely right. We must feel what time is demanding from us and remain connected with it together.

Question: There are states when it seems practically impossible to accept a new form. What actions can be taken so that this process happens more smoothly and quickly?

Answer: The most important thing is to be united with one another in the group. In this way, we can hasten time.

Time in Spirituality

938.07Question: Time in spirituality is a change of states. The faster they change, the faster we move. That is, time accelerates.

The Baal Shem Tov spoke about states changing “400 times a minute.” To what extent does this depend on us, and to what extent on the Creator?

Answer: A change of state depends only on our environment. To the extent we are connected with it, to that extent we will change with it.

Question: What does it mean that we as a group, as a ten, are going through spiritual time?

Answer: We are going through spiritual time if we feel changes occurring in us. And in accordance with them, we will feel how much we rise spiritually.

Feel Each Other with Your Hearts

942Question: We carry out many actions in the ten, but do they really hasten our spiritual time? Or until we come to prayer is our engine of spiritual time not yet set into motion and accelerated?

Answer: The most important thing is your prayer—how much each of you invests into it from within yourself, and in the end a common desire with a common intention is born. It is precisely this that will bring the result.

Try to feel one another with your hearts. And that is enough.

You Must Try Really Hard

17.01Question: Where does the lower one get the ability to generate the light of Hassadim from the bottom up?

Answer: The lower cannot generate anything; he can only ask. As a result of his requests, the upper, by fulfilling them, builds the lower, causing new properties in him.

Thus, it turns out that there seem to be certain actions in the lower properties of the Kelim, but in reality, they only reveal what the lower one lacks in order to approach the upper one and receive from it.

Question: How can we, as a ten, generate the light of Hassadim in relation to the Creator?

Answer: You cannot do this yet because you have no connection with the upper one. For this, you must try very hard.

Toward the Revelation of the Creator

528.04Question: Is it possible to remain in the constant thought that we, as a ten, are already in the end of correction, and that the Creator is already revealed as good that does good?

Answer: At present, we cannot draw near this state since it is too great, too exalted.

Yet in the end, if we use both the connection between us and what we study in the book correctly, these two conditions will lead us to the state in which we will be in absolute revelation of the Creator’s actions within ourselves.

Readiness to Hear the Voice of the Creator

942Question: Suffering helps us adjust our direction toward the Creator. In addition, we must constantly be ready to hear the voice of the Creator. How do these work together?

Answer: Suffering, in a sense, moves us forward. But what really matters is whether this suffering comes, not from our egoism, but from the fact that we do not feel our proper place in creation, in all of Malchut. If we are not in our place, we feel it as a lack of balance of forces. Therefore, we must try to gather ourselves, our feelings, our goals, and strive toward the Creator in a more correct way.

Question: Aren’t we preparing every day to hear the voice of the Creator?

Answer: That you must ask yourself. It all depends on how connected you are with each other and whether you form a Kli, a group of ten, directed toward the Creator and desire to draw closer to Him.

Question: So readiness to hear the voice of the Creator is not my personal desire, but a group one?

Answer: Both yours personally and the group’s. The main thing, however, is the group’s desire.

How Can We Make the Necessity for the Creator a Property of the Ten?

942Question: In every word you say, there is a feeling of Hisaron deficiency in relation to the Creator without whom it is impossible to go on living.

Can we make a Hisaron like yours a property of our ten so that it would truly hurt, and not hide it behind some memorized phrases, words, or formulas?

Answer: There is nothing special about my striving for correction. Therefore, if you want, you will be able to connect with each other and with the Creator, with all our friends in the world, raise this Hisaron, and turn it to the Creator. This is what you must do.

Question: But still, how can we make the inner need for the Creator the property of the ten so that it would hurt everyone?

Answer: This needs to be talked about, and then you will connect with each other. In your common aspiration, your common Hisaron, you will be able to collect everything that is lacking and turn it to the Creator. And the Creator will definitely respond to it.

Connect with the Higher

942Question: You said that from within the ten we can connect to the state of the upper, and even to the upper of the upper. How do we connect to this state?

Answer: We have the ability to be connected with the higher and even with the upper of the upper if we ask for it.

For this, we must have sufficient Hisaronot (desires) to connect to these states. Let’s engage in this, and then you will see how it works.
