Question: It is written in the sources that one must believe above reason that the Creator wanted to do good to His creations. How does this differ from the common understanding that everything happens for the best, hope for the best and everything will be good?

Answer: It may seem very similar. But the point is that faith above reason obliges you to perceive everything happening in the world as an action of the Creator, which is always positive.

Question: Can it be said that part of humanity still lives by this principle?

Answer: Yes, but they accept it through reason, not through faith above reason. The difference is that you are connected to the Creator if you operate on faith above reason. But if it is through reason, it does not bind you to anything.

Question: What does it mean to adhere to the Creator in faith above reason?

Answer: It means to connect with Him and feel Him in all your desires and thoughts.
