It depends how much I obligate myself internally to be present, tied to them. I have to be actively, proactively annulling myself so that my whole thought and existence is with them and in them, letting what is outside me decide everything for what is inside me. Then, through them, we hear the guidance of the Creator.
We only understand this when our attitude to all that is outside of us is like that of the Creator. It is written, “one receives one.” When I am like Him, I feel this oneness.
In truth, I could work with any ten as my ten. But it’s not mature to change it often. That’s not a serious approach. Like animals that mate whenever wherever with whoever, vs. humans who need to choose one spouse, create a contract. That contract signifies a serious approach. It’s best if some system higher than me decides for me, and I only agree, sign, and stick to it from then on. Then, that “other” (the spouse or the ten) is my place of work. Only I need to change toward them. And I have the foreseeable future to do so.
An angel is a force. Gravity is an angel. There are other such forces. All of them work for only one goal: to bring each person and all of humanity together, to be as one body. There is nothing else going on in reality.
In the ten? I need to treat every day as brand new. All that happened before, was the Creator. What happens in the future though, is up to us.
Outside of the spiritual group, there are further calculations because that’s the egoistic world where, for example, if I’m seen as a pushover, a “bestower” if you will, I’ll be quickly steamrolled. But on the inside, I should be just like in the ten toward the whole world. I hold onto nothing, as it was all the Creator. That’s really how it is. But outside, I need to pretend, and behave as would be considered normal in our society. A Kabbalist can’t be identified on the outside by his behaviors.
I have to annul myself to such an extent that I’m able to connect with them. Otherwise, if I’m still big, filled with my opinion and my importance, then I simply don’t connect with them. If I connect with them, from within that connection, I can annul myself further, where annulment comes to mean that I serve them. Because I connected with them, I feel them, their desires that are opposite to mine even, and I serve those desires, help them to be realized in fact.
