There Is One Answer to All Questions

528.04Question: Rabash begins the article “Love of friends – 1” with rhetorical questions: “What are you seeking?” Is this the question I should start my day with?

Answer: Perhaps you have been thinking about this question for a long time, for many, many days, so you do not have to specifically start the day with this question.

Basically, the article says that a person who is wondering about the path of life should ask himself: “Where am I going? What is my goal?” And so on.

Question: As a result of this work, should I develop the need for friends so that apart from my brothers I do not need anything else?

Answer: It is very difficult. But in the end, you should get one answer to all your questions about spirituality: unite with the ten, give your best to your friends, and reach the goal together with them.

Heartfelt Closeness

942Question: Is it right to begin treating friends in the ten with the same trepidation with which we ask you questions?

Answer: No, you should strive to understand and treat each other with an open heart. You do not need to hide anything from your friends or avoid them. Be as close to them in your heart as possible.

Strive to help each other in the ten to strengthen the connection between you so that a common feeling is revealed in it in which you will feel the Creator.

Question: Can trepidation be called an intermediate state between joy and fear?

Answer: There is no such state as “in between.” It only seems that way to you. In any state, you should come to the point where it fills you, and you will know what it is.

How Can We Attain the Significance of the Creator?

961.2Question: How can all of Bnei Baruch, all the groups, attach themselves to the significance of the Creator that you possess?

Answer: You should not strive for that. You should strive to establish a connection between yourselves and feel the Creator within this connection.

Question: Where will you be in this process?

Answer: I will be somewhere nearby. I say this very seriously. I do not want you to feel obligated or dependent on me. Your development should be free.

Question: Can we, by awakening the significance of the Creator between us, use you as an example so the importance of the Creator you possess merges with ours?

Answer: I am ready for that. You can use me however you like.

Measure in the Torah

610.1Question: What is the measure in the Torah, and how do we renew it?

Answer: Everyone should constantly strive to ascend higher and higher on spiritual degrees with the help of the Torah, and then you will have constant renewal.

So the measure is the part a person attains in their spiritual work. And each time, they should strive for even more.

Exile—Separation from the Creator

961.2Question: Is exile a feeling of only oneself? Is this what brings us suffering and distance from the Creator and leads us to death?

Answer: Exile is a painful feeling for your ten when you turn away from Him instead of being glued to the Creator.

Question: The feeling of friends is life?

Answer: Yes, it is a connection between you.

There Are Many Paths to the Creator

961.2Question: Will a person who does not study Kabbalah be able to learn about the force of bestowal? Can people intuitively take this path?

Answer: They can. It is said: “There are many paths to the Creator.” Based on the root of one’s soul and desires, each person follows their path, but the general principle is still the same for everyone.

Question: Is Kabbalah the most painful path?

Answer: Kabbalah is the only way because we attract the upper light that corrects us.

Shechina—the Connection between Us

528.03The Shechina is the receiving Kelim, which a person transforms into bestowing Kelim.

In the work of the ten, this is what you can put you as mutual bestowal, wanting to be together in a single feeling, in a single aspiration.

Think about it more and more, and you will see that this state becomes more tangible and concrete, and then, so to speak, you will be able to manage it.

The Shechina is what binds you together, which you all belong to. There is you, there is the ten, and something that connects you; let’s say this is the Shechina.

And the unity of the Creator and the Shechina means that you want to give to the Creator the way He wants to give us.
