Dig Deeper Into Yourself
Question: Why does it say that when man makes an eternal union with the Creator, there is no more work, ascents or descents, for him?
Answer: Why would a person have ascents and descents once he completes his correction? The purpose of descents is to reveal another uncorrected desire to you—to make you dig more deeply into your egoism, to discover there something that needs to be brought to the surface.
It’s similar to the way the ground is plowed before planting seeds. These are all consequences of our spiritual work.
Once a person reveals his entire uncorrected desire and corrects it, there is no reason for descents or ascents. But he will continue to ascend and descend until he reaches the end of correction, Gmar Tikkun.

I am not asking because I disagree or am disrespecting what is said. But, isn’t spirituality supposed to be that we never stop growing or asking questions? Otherwise, we would all correct ourselves and be done with it. There would be no effort to reach The Creator. I understanding reaching a point of understanding to not ask questions or have ups and downs, but at the same time, don’t we all grow all the time spiritually? Is it just that a corrected person doesn’t have “visible” ups and downs, but they still have ups and downs?
