Spiritual Mother

275Question: What is collective Malchut?

Answer: The collective Malchut is where we are born and begin to develop. That is our common desire, our spiritual mother. The approximation to it starts with our connection.

Question: What is the difference between the collective Malchut and the feeling of our connection in the ten?

Answer: By feeling the collective Malchut, we begin to feel the whole creation, in what state it is and what it should be to get closer to the Creator.

Question: How do you act in the ten to direct yourself to the collective Malchut?

Answer: Get closer to your friends—nothing else. And as you get closer to them, you will receive from them more and more of different awakenings.

A Request that Guarantees the Result

936Question: What is happening now in Israel and in the world is all from the Creator. The feeling is that only the ten, the importance of the goal, and Kabbalah can help us save ourselves.

In the ten, we compose a prayer to the Creator to free our hostages so that the soldiers return home alive, so that peace would come.

What request can we raise to the Creator from our connection to somehow influence Him and the world?

Answer: We can only act in the direction of unity among all the members of Bnei Baruch throughout the world so that we all unite as much as possible and ask the Creator to reveal Himself within our connection.

Let each of you request in your heart that you want to get closer to each other, incorporate together in one desire, and turn with it to the Creator so that He unites you and connects everyone within Himself. Ask for it to happen here and now.

Ten In the Shape of a Circle

938.02Comment: In Rabash’s article “What is Peace in the Work” it is said that the point of our union, which we are all striving for, is coming to peace with the Creator, that is,  concluding a union with Him so that he can help us abolish our nature of receiving for ourselves.

My Response: Yes, this is the point of our unity.

In order to build this circle in a ten and from its center turn to the Creator, we must try to be together all the time, to unite into one whole, as they say, into one person with a single desire for one goal.

And so gradually we will have a common desire for this. That is, we will demand that the Creator  help us unite to become one and in this form reach the goal.

Exude Love

938.02Question: If I see myself as evil in the outside world, but at the same time I feel love in the ten, where and what am I distorting?

Answer: You must make sure that in the outside world you are also perceived as exuding love. You must have that feeling about the whole world, even your enemies.

Comment: It is very difficult.

My Response: That is good. And now try to create a relationship of love over your rejection.

It is necessary to refresh the atmosphere. Do not be ashamed to tell each other about love, simply admit it  even though it may not be 100% true that we love each other.

Comment: But there must be an inner prayer.

My Response: That is when you will feel what prayer means.

I see that lately we have gradually begun to go through such internal states that will help us to get closer between us and the Creator. I am very proud of you.

How Can I Come to a Cry to the Creator?

528.03Question: How when I am in a ten can I come to despair and cry to the Creator?

Answer: If you are in the ten, try to be connected with it into one common whole, and you have the task ahead of you to reach the Creator, then you begin to see how impossible this task is for you and your ten. That is when you start crying to the Creator.

Question: Am I crying or should the ten cry?

Answer: You, first of all.

Question: Does it then turn out that I am disappointed in the ten?

Answer: No. You see that you are placing yourself above the ten, and you cannot agree with this.

Multilayered Egoism

556Question: Rabash writes that a person changes several times to a state where he sees that he is not able to give more force and wants to escape from spiritual work. Why do I have to go through the state of wanting to escape many times?

Answer: It is because our egoism is layered. While a person convinces himself that he must change, many actions take place over him for a long time.

Question: How does one withstand and not run away? Is this due to the strengthening of the ten or oneself?

Answer: Oneself and mostly the ten.

Overcome the Burden of the Heart

528.01Question: Why, when a friend has some trouble, does resistance arise in the ten to work with his Hisaron (lack)?

Answer: Because this is not your own need, but supposedly someone else’s. The Creator deliberately burdens your hearts so that you overcome this.

Question: Does the Creator, by this, want to show that the friend himself, in prayer to Him, will feel the strength to rise and unite all friends?

Answer: No, the friend himself cannot do anything. He can only raise a prayer to the Creator and ask Him.

In the Common Field of Unity

942Question: What kind of work should take place in the ten when the Creator pushes it away and then calls it to Himself?

Answer: In the ten, we must work, trying constantly to come closer to each other and then to the Creator.

There are no other possibilities here except to create a common field of unity around us from which we turn to the Creator, convince Him to help us, and bring us closer to Himself.

Yearning for Bestowal

939.02Question: How from individual work on exiting the will to receive do we connect together in the ten?

Answer: Each of you should be above the individual will to receive and yearn to connect only in the will to bestow. In this way, you perform the appropriate actions and the Creator influences them with His light, and you gradually enter into the will to bestow.

If you show your friends an example of a desire to connect with them, then the upper force passes through this example, which influences them as well.

In the Center of the Ten

938.07Question: How should each friend feel bestowal in the center of the ten?

Answer: Everyone should feel that they are connected with all the members of the group and want to rise together with them and cling to the Creator.

This is the right aspiration, the right action, and the right feeling.
