The Origins of Spiritual Growth
Question: What does the “right line” mean for us who are studying Kabbalah? We do not have a sense of the Creator or a sense of bestowal, and very often we find ourselves in a dead-end situation where what we think is bestowal turns out to be strong reception.
Answer: That is true. In fact, it will always be like this because progress goes step by step. What was previously your right step turns into the left, and with the help of the left, you attain the right again.
If before you thought that connecting with a friend through some specific action was an act of bestowal, now you realize that, in fact, it stemmed from your egoism. But at that time, you did not see it that way.
In spirituality, we grow just like children do. A child also believes they are playing at being an adult. There is nothing humiliating about this; on the contrary, it is something to consider. This is how everyone grows.
You see it in newcomers, how they get confused, do not know what is what, and do not even understand where they are. This is natural. But when the field of forces that govern our world is revealed to you, you will be amazed at how blind you were before!
