All of reality was created by a single thought of the Creator. This one thought begins and concludes the entire process that creation must undergo. It is itself both the entire reality and the final reward. Everything except the desire of the Creator is contained within this thought that realizes His intention. It emanates from the Creator and within it all the created beings are manifested.
The expected reward is also embedded in it because all actions and all their outcomes are directed toward reaching the end of correction.
It is said that a person must place the Creator as a King over himself. That is, it is not enough that the Creator has prepared everything for us, the creation and its development, all that exists and will be. What matters is that the human being must also engage in the work to study the actions of the Creator and to elevate Him to the upper reality: to place Him as a King over himself.
A person strives to study creation on all its levels and through this gain the ability to connect everything to the upper force. Then he sees that this upper force is the Creator.
If one makes the correct choice and walks the correct path in the world in which he was created, he gradually reveals the force that governs this world and feels the necessity to bow before it.
As a person draws closer to nature, he discovers that within it, there is one upper force encompassing everything, including the person himself. It is this force we must reveal through our connection with one another.
In striving to come closer and unite ever more deeply with the friends, we gradually come to see that all of this has been prepared for us by the Creator and that it leads to the revelation of the Creator at the center of our unity. There is no other way.
The quality of such work elevates a person above everything else because through it, he takes steps toward resembling the Creator. When a person attains even the slightest similarity with the Creator, through his adhesion to the upper, he begins to rise toward Him. The work of connection brings us closer to the upper force.

The main condition for the common soul to be corrected and fit to receive the light is the mutual guarantee between its parts.
We must attain the very state originally created by the Creator by our own efforts. What are those efforts? They are efforts in Arvut.
As we ascend from below upward through the degrees of adhesion, we do so, of course, unconsciously, without strength, without understanding, without prior agreement to what lies ahead. All that is asked of us is to express, even in the simplest and most naïve way, a desire for something we do not yet truly know.
We simply walk, and through the surrounding light (Ohr Makif), we awaken the allure of holiness from the spiritual world upon ourselves. We begin to feel that this is something desirable, and then we act in the direction of Arvut.
What does this mean? It means we move in the direction of the correction of the Kli (vessel). That is, the Creator’s light is present and fills us; our task is only to reveal it. The Creator is already within us. This state is unchanging, but we can uncover it only through a certain action called the Arvut.

Question: When a Kabbalist transitions to another dimension, can he observe what is happening in this world without his body; meaning, can he observe the process from the side and influence it?
Answer: Naturally! But not in the form of bodies, but in the form of forces.
You see bodies. For example, right now you see me on your computer screen. But what if you could see me, not on the screen, but inside the hard drive? That is where all the information is!
Why do you need to look at the monitor at all? Look straight at the hard drive! That is all. Why do you need five senses? Why do you need these “casings and coverings”? Inside the electrons, that is where the upper spiritual life is. That is how a Kabbalist sees.
There is a complete picture, and it is all in spirituality. Our world is included within spirituality.
For example, when we talk about small children, we speak about their desires, efforts, and qualities and not their outer appearance. We speak from the level at which they are relevant to us, the level on which they connect with us.
So all the attributes of our world are completely absent in the spiritual world. In the spiritual world, we perceive only egoistic forces.
Comment: But on the other hand, you always bring the spiritual world down to the level of our world.
My Response: That is because there is no real difference! The only difference is in how a person perceives: one sees this way, another sees that way. But the worlds themselves, they do not exist.
Question: Right now, we are speaking through a screen, not telepathically. We are communicating, and this information is somehow reaching others. Why must it be this way?
Answer: So that we understand the necessity of the connection between us and begin to truly want to unite!

We cannot reach our root, the purpose of creation, without passing through every single state. Sometimes it might seem to us that we have already gone through a certain state or that we will not need to experience it because we already recognize and understand it. But that will not help us. We must pass through all the states.
We comprise all the discernments written in the books, and even those without mention. That is, we must enter into all the discernments of impurity (Klipa), holiness (Kedusha), Pharaoh, angel, and so on, to be in them, to want not to be in them, and to prepare ourselves to exit from them and advance, each time donning a new form and a new role, like an actor, thus passing through many garments.
We cannot avoid discerning something, meaning, we cannot skip degrees. We cannot desire to be male before we have been female. We must be and feel female, reject that state, and then, from that rejection and remorse, we will reach the state of male. In every single state, we need to prepare a deficiency for correction, and afterward, a deficiency for fulfillment.
So what is our true nature? Our nature is neither male nor female. Male and female are two states that we need to undergo, one after the other, at each and every degree. “Male” and “Female” represent intentions, not the will to receive.
