What Is Stopping Us?

I cannot correct the evil that is revealed in me without a group.Suppose I hate a certain friend, and although I understand that it is bad, I cannot do anything about it by myself. Only the Creator can help me, and until then, despite all my efforts, I continue to hate him.

I am bothered by it from morning till night, I understand that it is stopping my spiritual advancement and what is most important is that it doesn’t allow me to bring contentment to the Creator. It turns out that if I hate a friend, then to the same extent I hate the Creator. So what can I do?

Then I remember that I can change myself by the environment.

Question: And what if it doesn’t work?

Answer: It will work 100%, if I only want it to. In fact it is all very simple and everything is in the group including the world of Ein Sof (Infinity).

Question: So what is stopping a person if this is the goal of his life?

Answer: Disrespect and laziness, that’s what’s stopping him. He has everything, to the last detail: support, a crisis, friends, books, dissemination—there are all the conditions and the upper force standing ready. We are the ones who are stopping ourselves.

We have to connect, to stabilize, and to create the force of mutual guarantee in order to use it to attain the influence of the Creator. It may be that we are forgetting this part of the work, although artificial at the moment, it is very influential on the first part of the group work.

We are not doing that; we are not making enough efforts, like in the hour of distress. Where are our efforts? Where is the demand?
