Fourth Lesson: Advancement in Three Lines (10:00am)

1. There is nothing bad in the world. Everything is necessary and fits its role. On the evil inclination as a “help against Him.” To the extent of one’s ability to adhere to the right, the force of the left reveals, for the purpose of its correction.
   a. Based on the articles of Baal HaSulam: “There Is None Else Besides Him,” “Thou Hast Hemmed Me In Behind and Before.”b. Every interpretation in “HaSulam (The Ladder)” amounts to work in three lines – about the shattering, and that everything is constructed so that we would be able to connect two forces – “right line” and “left line” – and create the middle line between them. However, the middle line is not only the sum or average between the two lines, but something new: a person equal to the Creator.
