A person must take upon himself the burden of the kingdom of heaven on the lowest quality, and say about it that to him, even that state, the lowest that can be, meaning one that is entirely above reason, when he has no support from the mind or the feeling, so he can build its foundations on it, and at that time, he is seemingly standing between heaven and earth and has no support, for then everything is above reason, then a person says that the Creator sent him this state, where he is in utter lowliness, since the Creator wants him to take upon himself the burden of the kingdom of heaven in this manner of lowliness.

At that time, because he believes above reason, he takes upon himself that the situation he is in now comes to him from the Creator, meaning that the Creator wants him to see the lowest possible state that can be in the world.

And yet, he must say that he believes in the Creator in all manners. This is considered that he has made an unconditional surrender (Rabash, Assorted Notes, 21 “Sanctification of the Month”).

When we perceive that something seemingly bad comes from the Creator and believe it, it becomes easier for us, at least, to identify the source of our negative feelings: it comes from the Creator, who has some intention, goal, or path. Even though we feel our states as bad, we justify them, acknowledging that they, too, are necessary because they originate from Him.

However, this is not enough. We must reach a state where, even in the worst circumstances coming from the Creator, we reveal the best possible state, which is good and beneficial.
