Questions about Spiritual Work—28

3Question: What is wrong in our current state that dissatisfies the Creator?

Answer: He is not satisfied with our condition. He wants us to draw closer to each other internally all the time, to apply spiritual force, and then all together to draw closer to the Creator.

Question: Why should the suffering of creation be great?

Answer: Real suffering is a feeling of lack of correction. Therefore, the more we advance, the small distances from each other cause us great suffering.

Question: How do we properly undergo corrections so that there is no rejection from each other in the form of suffering?

Answer: In any case, there must be rejections otherwise we will not recognize where else there are qualities that need to be corrected. Egoism must manifest itself because without it we will not understand what to correct.

The Mercy of the Creator

235Question: What can be called the mercy of the Creator toward the creation?

Answer: The mercy of the Creator is in the fact that He gives us the opportunity from such a low state in which we are cut off from connection with Him and our friends to reach adhesion with them and with Him.

This can be checked by the following criterion: We do not think about anything and anyone except the Creator, and all our actions are aimed only at filling and delighting Him.

How Can You Get a Taste of Reality?

276.02Question: Baal HaSulam’s article “What Is ‘A Habit Becomes a Second Nature,’ in the Work?” says that because of this rule, we feel a taste of reality.

But when something becomes a habit, we just stop feeling the taste and are looking for something new. What does the taste of reality mean, and how do we even understand that this is reality and not our fantasies?

Answer: We have no way of understanding what is reality and what is not. We are not able to feel it. We perceive what the Creator gives us, so this is our reality.

Question: The article says that when two objects have the same feeling of reality, they are in adhesion. At the same time, it says here that the reality of the Creator is unattainable. How can we come to adhesion?

Answer: We do not know that. I act according to how I perceive others, including the Creator. That is all. We cannot check whether our feelings are true or not.

Manifestation of Shattering In Our World

222Question: How is the shattering of the single system of Adam HaRishon manifested in our world today?

Answer: It is manifested in the fact that all of nature is egoistic, built on so-called materialistic laws, and we live in it according to the same laws.

But the wisdom of Kabbalah is gradually being revealed and explains that there is a completely different nature that we do not see in our world, an altruistic one, based on properties of bestowal and good mutuality.

Now we are approaching a state where we have no other choice but to begin mastering this second nature—the nature of bestowal and love; otherwise, we will not be able to exist.
