Living By the Laws of Bestowal

947Question: Why are the phenomena that are called “spiritual advancement” composed of opposite things? How can this be logical in the perception of a Kabbalist when it is completely incompatible for an ordinary person?

Answer: It is because an ordinary person has a small animalistic mind. He exists only in it and sees only those events that his animalistic state observes and nothing else. A Kabbalist, however, develops an additional vision, sensation, and additional Kelim, desires internally.

Our animalistic desires give us bodily sensations of our world. But by studying Kabbalah and being integrated with the group, with the friends, we develop external desires in ourselves and begin to feel everything in them outside of ourselves. It turns out that I feel the friends as myself.

Naturally, this happens gradually, from a small percentage to a large one. There are 125 degrees in feeling the friends. But when we exit ourselves in this way, we begin to feel the upper world. There are completely different laws in it, inverse to our world, the laws of bestowal. So, it is said: “I saw the reverse world.”
