Question: What saturation threshold in the material is characteristic of those people who come to Kabbalah? Is it low or high?

Answer: All people who study Kabbalah are different, but, as a rule, they are not very eager to fulfill the desires of our world.

Question: Do material needs decrease or increase in the process of spiritual advancement?

Answer: It is impossible to say for sure. Some people stumble on the small selfish desires of our world and must first overcome them and then grow. And some do not care: “Let the desires of this world remain next to me, and I will deal with spiritual desires.”

Question: What will help a person feel the need for faith? As a result of what does it arise?

Answer: The need for faith is given to a person from above. And by virtue of feeling this lack in oneself, one goes further.

Question: How can I make room in my heart to accept the power of faith?

Answer: Where you used to have a place to feel the Creator, you now want to create a place for faith.

The place to feel the Creator is the place where your attitude to the ten, to the entire world Kli, manifests itself.

Question: What kind of miracle can we ask the Creator for?

Answer: The miracle of obtaining the force of light above reason.

Question: You said that a person should give what comes to him from the Creator to everyone. Is my good intention alone enough to pass on what comes from the Creator to my friends? Or is it a prerequisite to include their desires in yourself?

Answer: The inclusion of friends is very important. This is the only way to unite in the ten.

Question: How can a person evoke the need for faith himself, so that there is a true prayer?

Answer: Ask the Creator for this.

Question: Can a person feel love for his neighbor only by being rewarded with complete faith?

Answer: No, not necessarily. Even at the very beginning, when one begins to climb the steps a little, a person can already ask for another and connect with him.

Question: How can you not enjoy bestowal? Where should this pleasure be directed?

Answer: You should not keep the pleasure of giving to yourself. At the same time, you work within your desires and see how your desires receive this energy and exist thanks to it.

I started studying Kabbalah in 1976 when I was 30 years old. Three years later, I came to Rabash. But even before coming to Rabash, I started to read The Book of Zohar with the Sulam Commentary, studied the Introduction to the Wisdom of Kabbalah and other sources. I could not understand anything, but I was already trying to figure them out.

When I came to Rabash, then everything went along the same line. Before that, I sort of went through everything myself: science, philosophy, religion, and I saw that all that was just a delusion, absolutely everything, including science!

They lead a person astray from the right path to the goal of creation, to the meaning of life. So what if I find out how two solutions mix and what happens as a result? Nature around us is a huge sphere; I will scrape some properties, some knowledge, from it a little bit and study what I have scraped together. Am I going to do this all my life? Well, I will scrape together a little. And why? As Einstein said: “Like a little boy, I collect pebbles on the ocean shore.”

All great people have also asked these questions. And the most important thing that pushed them forward was the comprehension of the basis of the universe, its integral formula, that is, the connection between all its parts—what it is for. The whole connection: these X’s, Y’s, Z’s, and so on, what is inside the formula, equal to what? The meaning of life!

“What is it? Will I comprehend it or not?” Science will not give man an answer because he works with his brains and his properties like an animal that begins to scratch the ground with its hoof and sniff what it has found there. So much for science!

Moreover, I do not detract from its importance at all, but simply say that it is necessary to understand its limitations.

When …he sees that for himself he cannot receive the above-mentioned, then he makes a true prayer that the Creator will help him, and then the Creator makes a miracle for him and gives him the light of faith (Rabash, Notes 638 “Man’s Inclination”).

Question: How can one receive faith not for the sake of miracles, but for the sake of bestowal?

Answer: How can we share the light that descends to us in order to see what it comes for? Is it to give me the power of faith or just to lift me up so that I can see more of what is going on?

I think we need to have a better understanding of what it means to be in faith. We have no idea how great a force this is.

In our world, “faith,” “believer,” “believes” are all somehow lost. But in fact, the power of faith is the power that lifts a person above everything. And then one can control oneself.

Faith above reason does not belong to our earthly level; therefore, it is called a miracle. It is above the laws of nature.

Sometimes people complain that the spiritual path takes such a long time—years. But the only advice is to be patient and continue scrutinizing what exactly is necessary and the result will be revealed. Again and again, we should try to connect with the friends and turn to the Creator in order to ask once more.

A person alone cannot do much; the acceleration of time depends only on the group. If we unite, we can hasten time.

Therefore, one should calm down. If a person already understands that it is impossible to change their nature by their own efforts and that it can only be received from the Creator, then they must seek the right means that will lead them to the goal. Then he comes to the wisdom of Kabbalah, performs the actions advised by Kabbalists, and thus breaks through.

I think that very soon we will feel how we all are rising on the wings of an eagle.

Question: When the Creator gives a person constant faith, do foreign thoughts no longer visit him, or do they, but he already knows how to turn them around?

Answer: They just visit and that is it. There is nothing to ask the Creator for what He does not give.
The Creator gradually gives you more and more opportunities to strengthen yourself, to push away obstacles. But it is still our daily job.

And then we will learn how to process these obstacles so that we can use them to understand the ascents. After all, interference is not just interference, but help.

In order for an individual to want to get rid of his egoistic nature, he must, on the one hand, understand what evil it brings to him, that it is like a disease that does not allow him to live a high-quality life. On the other hand, he must have the desire to become like the upper force that gives him eternal life.

In other words, he needs to somehow see the benefit of fighting his egoism and understand what he loses by not being within the Creator’s system. Otherwise, the mere recognition of evil does not achieve anything.

After he stops himself based on the principle “do no harm to others,” the next stage is that he must open up and start emanating good, become its source. At this point, there is already some closeness to the Creator, with His quality, and to others, because the quality of the Creator is attained through closeness to others.

Question: What does the collective universal consciousness give?

Answer: The sensation of the Creator.

When one comprehends absolutely complete mutual penetration, a combination of all disassembled, distant souls, then their multiple embedding into one another and their connection, to the extent that they are all different, all opposite to each other in their multidimensional space and at the same time all united, connecting in the same multidimensional spaces, preserving their oppositeness, all this becomes such an intertwined, multidimensional receptacle of sensation that this is exactly how the primordial force that gave birth to everything, called the Creator, is attained. This way we can finally feel It, get to It! And He is there, inside. He is not hiding, but it is there, inside, that we begin to feel Him.

In such a way we can finally feel Him, reach Him! And He is there, inside. He does not hide, but it is precisely there, inside, that we begin to feel Him.

Question: And who gave birth to this original force, the Creator?

Answer: We do not know that. We do not ask such a question because we need to reach the Creator. We don’t even understand how we do it.

And when we begin to attain Him, then He already takes us, united together with Him, because we have reached His state, His external quality, His external manifestation toward us, and we go somewhere with Him. He takes us out of this state to somewhere further away where it is unknown. Into some subsequent attainments that are called the seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth millennia.

Our maximum unification is called “6,000 years.” Then comes the “Sabbath.” the so-called “seventh millennium,” when we are fully united together and reveal the upper force that created this state. And then, after already being united during the seventh millennium state, we go together with this force to an unknown place and transition to the next state.

Baal HaSulam even writes about the tenth millennium, but it is completely incomprehensible to us. It is impossible to imagine, because such unification is beyond our senses or analysis in the mind.
