World on the Threshold of Awareness
But the lower ones cannot receive the illumination of the left before it is clothed in Hassadim from the right line.
This is why Esau was weary and said, “Behold, I am at the point to die; and what profit shall the birthright do to me?” (Rashbi, Zohar for All, Vol. 3, “About the Revival of the Dead“)
After all, he wanted to receive the light of Hochma in his egoistic desires, his receiving Kelim, and he is not able to do this.
It is like our whole life. We want to enjoy life; we chase after all the pleasures and want to receive them, but as soon as I am about to achieve some pleasure, it immediately disappears. And so it has been my entire life.
That is why Esau was weary and said: “I cannot continue like this any longer. I am tired. I have despaired of all this. I am ready to unite with Jacob.”
Today all of humanity stands on the threshold of such awareness. And that is why the wisdom of Kabbalah is revealed—the method of Jacob. After all, this is the science of how to build a middle line.
Before such despair came, there was no need for the wisdom of Kabbalah. The need for it has appeared now. After all, the Torah is revealed from the middle line, the correction of egoism.
