Climbing the Spiritual Degrees

41.01Question: What should we do to reveal the Creator?

Answer: The same as we do now, there is nothing else.

If, by connecting with each other, we reach the first stage of unification, the light of the level of Nefesh arises in us; it is the first, the smallest, of the five lights we must attain.

Then we continue to work, and if we go through the embryo state, we are born into the spiritual world.

Then, we begin to feel the next level of our existence called “nursing,” as in our world. That is why such actions occur in our world as the consequences of spiritual actions.

Usually, the nursing period is called “two years.” But those are two years in a spiritual sense. Afterward, we reach the level of Ruach and grow further to the level of Neshama, Haya, Yechida de Nefesh, and so on.

We study all these steps in the Study of The Ten Sefirot. This is what should advance us.

The whole science of Kabbalah, in fact, is built only on giving a person the opportunity to enter the spiritual world and begin their equalization with the Creator.

What To Do If There Is Emptiness in the Soul?

183.02Nazarbay asks: “When there is emptiness in the soul, what to do?”

My Response: Fill it. When there is emptiness in the soul, it is necessary to open this soul to the light, and it will fill it.

When you open your soul to the light, you expect this fulfillment from the Creator. You strive toward Him, as if you fly to Him and are ready to accept everything from Him. Then He corrects your soul and fills it with His light. And this is the revelation of the Creator to a person.

Question: Are you ready to accept everything from Him?

Answer: Yes.

Question: Absolutely everything?

Answer: At this point, nothing remains, no conditions.

Question: So you don’t divide: I accept this, but I don’t accept that?

Answer: Nothing.

Question: Everything, no matter what?

Answer: Everything! Because you are in front of the Creator. There are no reservations here.

Comment: But then all sorts of fears creep in: “And what if, God forbid, like that?”

My Response: It doesn’t matter. Whatever it is. Just headfirst into the abyss. That’s all. And you realize that this, it turns out, is the entrance to the upper world.

Conditions of Origin

945Question: I don’t have the strength to annul myself. How can the ten help me with this?

Answer: First, by example, and on the other hand, by pressure, when the ten shows you that you must cancel yourself in front of them.

Second, you must help your friends with everything, i.e., fulfill all the work conditions Rabash writes about in the ten. By observing them, you become an embryo inside the ten, and the ten turns into your mother’s body.

And when you all finish this work and cancel yourselves before each other, you get ten mutually cancellable egoistic desires. At the same time, you become a full-fledged spiritual embryo. There will be no reverse movement; you will begin your intrauterine development.

Your development will occur in the Creator, in the quality of bestowal and love. As it is said, you will begin to feel the upper world: The embryo in the mother sees the whole world from edge to edge since it completely cancels itself. Therefore, it sees absolutely everything, even what it does not see after birth.

And then there are the days of its development. “Days,” changes, a constant, ever-increasing glow of light and an ever-increasing nullification of oneself in this light. It is the development of the embryo. On one hand, he develops egoistically, and his egoistic mass manifests increasingly in him. On the other hand, he cancels more and more of this mass growing in him and thus grows.

Female Desire, Male Intention

282.02It therefore follows that each one should try to bring into the society a spirit of life and hopefulness, and infuse energy into the society. Thus, each of the friends will be able to tell himself, “Now I am starting a clean slate in the work.” In other words, before he came to the society, he was disappointed with the progress in the work of the Creator, but now the society has filled him with life and hopefulness.

Thus, through the society, he obtained the confidence and strength to overcome because now he feels that he can achieve wholeness (Rabash, Article 30 “What to Look for in the Assembly of Friends”).

There is an apparent principle in Kabbalah: There is Kabbalah, and there is material life. Separate this clearly with an iron wall.

In this life your personal aspects are your body, food, family, children, whatever you want. On the other hand, we need to comprehend the Creator, our activities, our group, and our friends without mixing.

Although we consist of two parts, male and female, we cannot mix them. However, the woman is given an opportunity to ask questions, listen, and participate.

Women have very powerful Hisaron, and you can feel how they pressure men; this is very good. And we must take their pure Hisaron, pure desire, and connect it to ourselves.

It is what we study from the structure of the spiritual Partzuf. Malchut, located below, is the female part. And the restriction (Tzimtzum), the screen (Masach), the reflected light (Ohr Hozer), this is all the male part, which is included in the first nine Sefirot where the upper light is obtained and the Creator is revealed.

That is, the Creator is revealed in a woman’s desire, formed with the help of a man’s intention.
