Pleasure From Connection

Question: There are many groups of people in the world that enjoy connecting. What is the difference between those groups and a group of Kabbalists?

Answer: Indeed, there are many groups in the world that engage in various methods of connection and receive great pleasure from it. People do karaoke, dancing and singing together, etc. It is impressive to see how they enjoy being together.

How can we distinguish a Kabbalistic group of people from any other group that connects and receives pleasure from connection?

The fact is that the goal of ordinary groups is to enjoy themselves. But the goal of connection in Kabbalistic groups is to bring contentment to the Creator, and as far as they aspire to this, they rise to the level of the Creator.
