It’s correct to pray for the others to be connected, but it’s unnatural to do so; that’s why we need the wisdom of Kabbalah to give us such advice. Otherwise, we’d never think in that direction.
I meant that we naturally request what is good for us, all the time. The request for connection or for others is not just not natural, but against one’s desire because the Shattering imparted a sensation of otherness and hatred for what is outside of me.
We’re always in some prayer, but Kabbalah doesn’t take that into account. We don’t pray the prayer for connection of what’s broken (the shattered soul) that the Creator responds to.
Birth is a crisis because it’s a new state where the same connection with the Upper Degree is on a different level, no longer in the womb, but in the mother’s arms, and so on. In spirituality these degrees are called Ibur (impregnation), Yenicha (suckling), and later on there is Mochin (adulthood).
You should have both of these before you, but the friends are the first touchstone. If I bring the friends contentment with the intention that it brings the Creator contentment, I’m sure to hit the mark.
No, it’s so straightforward that we think it has to be something else. Help the friends reach the goal. They’ll reach it if they’re inspired, if you set the right examples for them.
