Question: If there are many descents, confusion, and even not enough time to understand my state, how can I check that I am progressing correctly?

Answer: It does not matter that there are confusion and descents. The most important thing is that in your thoughts you are constantly striving toward the Creator. This is a sign that you are on the spiritual path.

Question: Until we include the Creator in our relationships, are we unable to ask Him to show us the way?

Answer: No, we can. We can ask the Creator to show us the way and to help us check if we are moving in the right direction.

Question: But our scrutinies constantly confuse us. Can we ask the Creator to take away these scrutinies and advance in faith above reason without them?

Answer: And how will you do this without scrutinies?

We need to clearly understand where the connection with the Creator is. Through which point of sensations does it come? This is what we are waiting for, asking for, and drawing closer to Him with. In the end, He reveals it to us.

Question: Is there a difference for the Creator when we pass on the light and fulfill the desires of external people or our friends from Bnei Baruch?

Answer: If we fulfill the desires of our friends who are with us in the same Kli (vessel), then we are building a spiritual ladder. We are as if climbing its degrees toward the Creator.

Question: If we fulfill the desires of external people, are we not climbing this ladder?

Answer: No, we are merely creating an external environment, but it is not purposeful.

Comment: We, the students of MAK Israel [KabU, Kabbalah classes for Russian speakers] would like to hear words of guidance and wishes from you.

My Response: The most important thing for you is to stay together. Gather together and strive to be increasingly focused on your goal.

You are only at the beginning of your journey. And, of course, many more revelations await you. But you have good conditions, and you will succeed. We are always at your service.

Question: It is said that we are obliged to receive pleasure to be in the program of creation. If a person has already abandoned the receiving vessels (Kelim), but has not yet fully mastered the skill of maintaining true clothing, how can they be in the program of creation?

Answer: A person must receive pleasure either from the fulfillment from receiving or the fulfillment from bestowing; this is his life. He cannot exist without desire.

He is created with the desire to receive. Therefore, we need to thoroughly understand ourselves: to whom is our desire directed and how we can use it.

Question: When I am clothing in the desire of a friend, it means I want to fulfill it.

If I take this desire and turn to the Creator with it, where exactly does the revelation of the Creator occur?

Answer: It occurs in the reflected light. The reflected light (Ohr Hozer) is the light we direct to the Creator because we want to feel the Creator through the quality of bestowal to Him.

To the extent that our qualities of bestowal align with His, we begin to feel the reflected light and the direct light (Ohr Yashar) clothed in it within our desire.

In this way, the light enters the body of the Partzuf, which means into our desire, and we reveal the Creator.

Question: Is it possible to make an agreement with the body to work for the sake of bestowal? What arguments can we provide to the body so that it supports our intentions for the sake of Heaven?

Answer: You can come to an agreement with it if you constantly think about bestowal.

By desiring to work through your intentions, you should imagine that they are within you, and by directing them to the Creator, you connect with Him. In this way, the Creator receives all your desires.

Question: Will the body help us then?

Answer: The body has nothing to do with it. The body is a desire.

We can and must ask the Creator to reveal Himself in order for us to feel that He alone exists and fills the whole world.

Question: The concealment of the Creator was made specifically to give us the opportunity for correction. What does it mean to be ready for this revelation?

Answer: The point is that I should not feel His revelation as something that can fill me. I need to be ready to reject the revelation of the Creator in order to be like Him and to understand that He reveals Himself only so that I can conceal Him, and only after that can I very carefully and gradually prepare myself for His revelation.

That is, first we need to conceal Him. And to the extent that we can really do this, the Creator will begin to reveal himself.

Question: What does it mean to conceal myself?

Answer: It means I should not reveal my egoistic desires. If I do not reveal them, then no one knows them. I should reveal only my altruistic desires and wait for them to be fulfilled.
