Question: We learn that from love for creatures one comes to love for the Creator. It is impossible to unite without the help of the Creator. Does it mean that we first need to contact the Creator?

Answer: We must ask the Creator to unite us.

Question: Should we ask the Creator to build some kind of image?

Answer: You do not need any image! You need to ask the Creator to unite you. Then, as you begin to unite, you can ask Him to unite you even more. Then you will begin to work with Him, study Him, and connect with Him.

The first action is our unification. But for this, we need the Creator. We set the task of unification between us, and the Creator is an auxiliary force that we ask to help us in this. We then turn to Him to connect with Him even more. But until we unite with each other, we have nothing to turn to the Creator with because we do not yet exist at His level.

Question: To whom then do we turn?

Answer: We turn to nature, to the upper force, for help.

Question: What is this nature made of?

Answer: This should not interest you. You just need to get the force of connection.

First, we use the Creator to connect with each other. When we succeed in this, we turn to the Creator in order to begin to unite with Him.
