Growing Stronger in There Is None Else Besides Him – Selected Excerpts from the Sources. #11
Reading Excerpt #11 (00:15) “All the many contradictions to His uniqueness, …”
1 S. (02:35) He says it’s interesting that in every contradiction there is a special degree you can reveal. I understand there’s contradiction but what does it mean there is a special degree in every contradiction?
R. All contradictions all conflicts all changes that there are is in order to show us that in all of creation there is only one thing him and his name are one that is all one that there are many such angles and degrees and parts and it all works in relation to us so that we will reach from the states of the parts of the degrees to a complete state.
S. What does it mean forces of separation? What does it do?
R. These forces, they help us understand what are the things that we’re dealing with, what we are built of.
S. So without the forces of separation we can’t advance?
R. Of course you first of all learned the little parts, what the differences are, how they’re separate.
S. So you can say be happy that you have a mess with your wife and your mess with the friends. That’s what they’re telling me?
R. Of course.
S. Why should I be happy about it?
R. If you’re related to this correctly you will understand the state of perfection otherwise you won’t.
S. If there is no separation there is no wholeness?
R. That’s the only reason of the existence of the state of separation.
S. So we can not without separation?
R. Right when was the creator satisfied on the third day.
S. What does it mean?
R. Meaning when there is death there is separation there is breaking when it’s clear and then people can rise above it.
S. I understand it’s weird for my thought to think that there is no separation..
R. No it means if you advance correctly then you will reveal separation and then connection separation and then correction that’s how you advance left right, left right.
S. I see, thank you.
Reading Excerpt #11 Twice. (05:38) “All the many contradictions to His uniqueness, …”
2. S. (08:03) What is he talking about when he says those who are rewarded, what is this worthy means?
R. They overcame all the disturbances and that’s why they’re worthy upon all these disturbances to discover the answers, the revelations.
3. S. (08:38) And what did they overcome?
R. The disturbances.
S. What does it mean to overcome disturbances?
R. That all kinds of confusions come, they pull in all kinds of directions, false fulfillment, they give you all kinds of nonsense to engage in without putting themselves into the knowledge of the Creator and so on.
S. What does it mean to overcome it?
R. To overcome means to engage in being similar to the Creator wherever we do we think it will be in order to give him contentment.
S. Where does the other nonsense go?
R. We don’t use them so they disappear.
S. What do you mean not to use them?
R. They don’t want to engage in order to receive.
S. So how do you drive them away when all this nonsense fills your heart?
R. One after the other as much as I take these books of the wisdom of Kabbalah, The Book of Zohar, the article of Baal HaSulam and Rabash, by that I push away all of the nonsense from my head. There can’t be any other way, only this by that.
4. S. (10:20) I feel to some degree that we have approach we haven’t been rewarded with the gate of attainment as the Kli and how do we know what is the next step from here to take if this is true? what is the next step to go through the gate?
R. So what you attain now opens up another degree that you’re drawn to it this is how it is more and more and more. This is how it happens.
5. S. (11:19) You said that as a result of the work with all the confusions and disturbances I discovered the answer, what answer do I discover?
R. To the extent the Creator governs you and he wants you to choose in order to bestow and there you and him are connecting together the same quality to influence mutually one the other.
S. You mean there’s a lot of confusion especially before Congress so what should we do in order to reach such an inversion and connect?
R. Let’s hug between us and place the Creator in the center of our connection, we don’t need anything else other than that this form will include everything.
6. S. (12:39) Are those two conditions of separation and connection, will they end in the Gmar Tikkun?
R. Yes, they will complete one another all of the separations will be revealed and they will be covered through by all the connections.
7. S. (13:22) Can I ask about the Congress? The topic is convening in one home and woman is at home so what do you expect from the women Kli from now till the Congress? And what do you wish us as a result from this congress?
R. I expect from this convention that all of our friends will come from around the world that will be able to include them, to feed them, to give them a place to rest. That I will have the strength to give them lessons, as many as they want on whatever they want and by that we will advance to one place to one heart and there in one heart each and everyone will lose himself, lose himself as if doesn’t exist. It all exists other than him, he feels himself as being in them and that is how we all feel that is what I expect from the convention.
S. And from the women’s Kli?
R. From the women’s special especially, yes of course, what do you mean women’s Kli, of course. Wherever we, together with you and what places South America, North America, Europe in every single place and you saw this, that the main thing is connection, connection between everyone and that is how we need to continue. I am sure that the convention is good. The fact that we are worried and concerned we’re not sure how it’s going to come out or this or that it is good it is very good. I’m filled with hope that we will attain a new degree.
Info: Yesterday we got a lot of questions about the Israeli Kli or the world Kli about the convention because everything changed and people have a lot to ask so we said we just announced this to everyone and it will be more questions so we will answer them all. So about the registration the virtual registration it remains the same whomever participating virtually which is most of the people in the world it just remains you pay on the website of the Congress you can still register it will be open throughout the whole Congress.
About the previous registration to the Arava so that was canceled you got a letter of cancellation we also got your money back. Yesterday all the money was returned also to people who pay with payments except for five people that was an issue with their credit card will find the way to pay them back, so money is a sensitive topic we’ll just send the questions if you have something to ask. So what we had is gone now the next stage yesterday morning the registration to the new Congress in this building was started, more than 500 people signed up already, all the links will be published again today.
We just have to say every registration is personal like if a husband and wife want to pay each one has to go through their own user and pay so the registration is for two days and it’s divided into half days. So whoever wants to come for half day can sign up it will be flexible mainly women or people that work for all kinds of reason it is a very flexible registration. So the price for half day is 65 shekel so all the halves together is 260, we got lots of questions could you register without food? So we don’t have such a thing you sign up for half doesn’t matter whether you eat or not that’s the minimum so please sign up.
Now what else can I add these half days of from 7:00 to 1:00 that is the first half then from 1:00 till the end of the day. It is important to say that it’s only for adults 18 and above we can’t have people with children here, so the Congress is for adults 18 and up that is in general about the Congress in Israel. Now about the world Kli, you also got that letter of the cancellation of the Congress and got money back so people thought the Congress was canceled and they can’t sign up and they can’t come no the Congress is taking place just not in the desert it’s happening here that is why you got your money back.
Now also you have to register again the link is in the convention website so go there and pay for the Congress. Whomever has problems with their credit card or anything write us we will contact you and we will take care of everyone also about the registration and the payment. Now it’s important that whomever comes from overseas from abroad to Israel must fill in a card of a guest, it doesn’t matter if you stay with the friends or the center of the hotel.
Because we have to get your insurance your passports we have to check all kinds of things it’s very important there is a link on the Congress website filling that guest card. It is a lot of people that are speaking to each one personally and filling up their details we have to take care of you in the best way we can. Also we have to state that the guests in the center start from the 21st of February what does it mean? It is sleeping accommodations it’s food it’s all the person’s needs.
The official guests here is from the 21st to the 28th whomever staying before and staying after we weren’t in contact. We said whoever comes before you have to think where you are sleeping also after the Congress because we can only take care of everybody in that one week. So that’s more or less about the registration again if something isn’t clear any doubt please write to the help email and we will answer each one patiently and solve all the problems.
Now tell us about the preparation. Okay, of course we have a team that is picking up friends from the airport we have many friends there already… whomever wants to join this team we will send the link again today you can join the WhatsApp group. We know whoever is coming so whoever wants to give help and join and you can reach out if you want to host the world Kli friends at your house t han we still need homes to host our friends. So if you live around the center and you want to host friends than please reach out and you will be able to host our wonderful friends. Preparing the center for our convention with management we have the friends that took responsibility to prepare the building we see them working already in the lesson they got approval to help prepare the building, so it is sacred work.
Even now anyone who is here from Israel and wants to help men women alike you can reach out to help@kli.com , men and women we will give room to everyone whoever wants to help there’s always place to do that. Now as we said like in the Arava man will do will do duties in their Tens showing you are responsible, and regarding the women over the next few days the registration will be sent out.
Like women who sign up to the meals then you will also get it you can sign up and you can come to the convention already. On the 26th on Sunday right after the convention we’re going to have a trip to the North of Israel friends from abroad and from Isreal are welcome to sign up.
