Comment: You said that we ask the Creator to fill us and to bring us closer.
My Response: Yes.
Question: But Rabash writes that the correct asking is not for fulfillment, but for Kelim (vessels). What is the correct way to address Him?
Answer: Ask for what you have a desire and intention for. And when the Creator reveals your Kelim, you will see what happens there.
Question: Our desires seek fulfillment, something good, light. But how do you ask for what Rabash advises?
Answer: Ask; it does not matter what. The main thing is to keep asking all the time. And gradually your desires will become more sharply directed.

Question: When working in a group, we find joy in our work for the Creator. How can we be sure that the Creator accepts our work?
Answer: You must feel it. If you unite among yourselves and in relation to the Creator, while desiring to give everything to Him, to be together with Him in everything, then you will feel that you are rising toward the Creator, and that He is descending to you.

Question: As we receive a new state due to exerting a significant effort, what should the right attitude toward it be? Should we try to remember the previous connection and take some power from there, does it disappear, or is it hidden from us?
Answer: We still have the same goal, but it is only much more explicit and better understood. We have the same friends, only they are much closer to me and I need them more. There is the same order, only it is more understandable to me, which causes me to have a greater responsibility in adhering to it (lessons, meals, and so on).
We must feel we have risen to a new level and have a greater sense of responsibility, not only for ourselves, but for others, the Creator, and the whole world.

Question: Is it possible and necessary to maintain and develop an ascent, or is it a state of a degree where we can achieve nothing more since we have reached the highest point of the degree?
Answer: No, a person does not know whether it is the highest point of the degree or not. One must constantly strive to rise further by accepting the Creator’s attitude toward him as essential. In this way he forms the correct attitude toward his state and the Creator and always strives to ascend higher and higher.
Question: How can one maintain the intention for the sake of Heaven during this ascent?
Answer: One person cannot do this alone. It also requires an environment. You must gather with friends, talk with them, and discuss. In this way, a person will gradually reach a point where his intention and thoughts focus only on maintaining connection with the Creator.

Question: If the corrections we go through are meant for the soul, what sensations do we feel in the body? It seems like they complicate the work of feeling correction. Why are they given to us then?
Answer: Honestly, I do not understand what you are talking about. If I focus on clarifying my relationships with my friends and clarifying my relationship with the Creator through these relationships, what does the body have to do with it?
Of course, the body also suffers; it shakes and feels various tensions, but I would say these are minor side effects. There is nothing significant about them.
You can rest assured that nothing will happen to your body. The body only becomes healthier if physical states result from your spiritual efforts. I guarantee you that.

Question: It is said: “We shall do and we shall hear.” Is this one action?
Answer: “We shall do” is an action, and “we shall hear” is a result. If my action or request to the Creator is for the sake of bestowal, then we will receive this quality and act for the sake of bestowal.
Question: What is the connection between bestowal for the sake of bestowal and reflected light?
Answer: Any bestowal, whether bestowal for the sake of bestowal or bestowal for the sake of reception, relates to the reflected light.
Question: The intention to achieve bestowal to the Creator may not be entirely pure. How is this corrected? At what moment?
Answer: It is corrected immediately on the spot. As soon as you have any desires, you should immediately examine them, and the desires above egoism we must use for the sake of the Creator.
Question: What is the upper light the Creator gives us for bestowal?
Answer: It is the light of the Creator that corrects our intentions. And then, with these intentions, we can act for His sake through our friends.
Question: If one of the friends feels a connection with true bestowal, how can he gently and correctly convey his feelings to the friends?
Answer: They will feel it themselves. Additionally, the friend can pray that the Creator helps him explain it to his friends without words.
Question: How can I understand that I am giving pleasure to the Creator?
Answer: You must feel it through your connection with Him.

Question: Your teacher Rabash said that one can still attend a lesson without intention if he has already arrived. If we did not establish an intention of bestowal before the lesson or a meeting with the ten, where should we direct our thoughts?
Answer: At least part of the ten should be in the correct intention, and the others can connect to them. The most important thing is not to be passive. If I have even the slightest connection with the property of bestowal, I must promote or express it within the group.
Question: Can the greatness of the friends be a minimally sufficient intention for a group meeting?
Answer: Yes, you should strive for this. When you feel that through this, you are working for the sake of bestowal to your friends, you can hope this action will also lead to bestowal to the Creator. He will unite you all and bring correction.
