Receive the Light of the Creator

549.01Question: The desire to receive is a feeling of lack in us. But the Creator has no lack. Is the desire to bestow also a feeling of lack in us?

Answer: The desire to receive the Creator’s light, being connected with Him, is our need (lack) for now. Feeling this leads us to a state when we seek how we should act in order to begin to receive the Creator’s light.

What Do You Want?

096Question: We, as creation, begin to feel some form of manifestation of the light in us. What should we desire at that point: to study the Creator or to join the next state?

Answer: What should we desire? To attain the Creator. For this we came to Kabbalah.

Nothing matters for me except one thing: to attain my root. If I attain it, understand it, somehow connect with it, even if only in some mechanical form or from within myself, then in accordance with this I will draw closer to it.

Then the mutual feeling of one another will constantly reveal the Creator to me as even greater, more unique, all-powerful, and I will want to acquire His desires and forms until I reach the state in which He and I will become similar to each other.

Question: What changes does the Creator want from us now?

Answer: That we recognize His authority over all of creation, over all the worlds, and agree to any changes in ourselves for the sake of revealing Him to ourselves.

Kabbalah Does Not Subjugate a Person

249.02Comment: When a person gets into a certain society, he is influenced by that environment. Suppose he got into the society of “Brahma Kumaris” or somewhere else, and began to truly perceive: “Yes, there is God there.” When people come to study Kabbalah, you also present certain information, and this brainwashes a person.

My Response: No! Because Kabbalah is against his egoism, against one’s nature! With it, I do not subordinate a person to myself. I place him against me.

Pay attention, although you respect me and consider me a smart person, you do not agree with me, you are not under me, because I am giving you information that is against you.

You can agree with me only if you annul yourself, if you acknowledge that you are nothing and nobody. This is your inner struggle.

That is why Kabbalah is the only method that does not subjugate a person. It is not a religion, and it is not some other methods.

I only teach and give information, but how to realize it in you, that is your problem, and a very difficult one, because you can resolve it only by fighting with yourself. Therefore, you will never obey me. You will always be against me, and if you will be able to agree with me, it will be only above your reason.

Nothing Affects the Creator

032.06Comment: What kind of game as adults should we have now?

Answer: Playing seriously means playing the Creator.

Comment: Explain what it is.

My Response: It is to make sure the Creator is among us in all our thoughts and actions. This is called playing seriously.

Question: Can we say that before I do anything, I try to appeal to the Creator?

Answer: Yes, and to imagine you are doing this for Him, for His benefit, for His sake. For Him means for the sake of others. Nothing affects the Creator; He needs nothing. There is only one possibility, which is to get the strength from Him to act for the sake of others.

Question: It turns out the formula “I want to be happy” changes to “I want people to be happy so everyone around me is happy?”

Answer: But really happy. Not the way I want them to be happy, but the way the Creator wants them to be happy. Because this is the law of the universe. It is absolute and objective.

Question: How precise everything is! So how does He want people to be happy? What is it for the Creator?

Answer: Try to move into other people’s shoes, transition there, and start feeling what is most important to them. And build it together with them.

Question: When transitioning, what do you think will be the most important thing for people?

Answer: To feel close to each other.

Question: Is this it? Is that the only thing deep inside a person?

Answer: Yes, a person begins to feel perfection in this.

Question: So there is peace, happiness, and security in it?

Answer: It is the completion of everything. Not the end, but completion, pure perfection.

Question: So are all people close? Are all people brothers and sisters?

Answer: Yes, they generally disappear in the form they are in now. They simply enter the realm of perfection.

Question: So if now I want to use another for my benefit, there I would want to give myself completely to someone else?

Answer: Yes, this is what giving ourselves to each other is all about. It is called Hashpaa in Kabbalah, bestowal. This is the state of perfection; the spiritual state.

Comment: We are engaged in a great science after all.

My Response: It is yet to be revealed! It will be further developed and broken down into feelings.

Strive for the Properties of the Light

232.01Question: Where does the additional awakening of the light that created all creation come from in the creations?

Answer: The fact is that the creation feels the need to strive for the properties of the light. Therefore, it develops this system from within itself and begins to strive for the light from Malchut to Keter.

Question: Where does the beginning of this aspiration come from?

Answer: Initially there is no light of Hochma in creation, there is no sensation of the Creator, therefore it desires to master it.

The First Man Named Adam

200.01Question: How is the Partzuf of Adam HaRishon, a part of the upper spiritual worlds studied in The Study of the Ten Sefirot, related to the first man (Adam HaRishon) who revealed the Creator, who was also called Adam?

Answer: Adam, the first one to reveal the Creator, was a man like us. He was born from his father and mother, lived in this world, and one day reached a state where he began to reveal the upper force, the Creator.

Such a desire suddenly awakened in him, and he began to think: “What am I living for, where did I come from, why, and who controls me?” This is like each of us. This is how he revealed the spiritual world.

He was distinguished by the fact that he had a very sensitive soul, which was not as coarse as with a developed egoism like ours. Therefore, it was easier for him to make this revelation himself. It was the very first spiritual gene (Reshimo) to be revealed in this whole system of broken souls, at the beginning of its ascent from the bottom up; this was Adam, the first person to reveal the Creator.

The Partzuf of Adam HaRishon is a spiritual object created from above, by Zeir Anpin (ZA) and Nukva of the world of Atzilut, when the worlds spread from top to bottom. ZA and Nukva raise him to their level, and then even to the level of Aba ve Ima, where he couples (Zivug) his two parts, male and female: Adam and Eve (Hava), thinking he can already be like Aba ve Ima and act in everything for the sake of bestowal.

But when he makes this coupling, he reveals he is not capable of it for the sake of bestowal, and shatters. This is the Partzuf of Adam HaRishon, the common soul, which is studied in the science of Kabbalah.

Its parts fall after shattering, going lower and lower until they reach the very “bottom,” and from there they begin their scrutinies and clarifications. First, there are numerous clarifications on the inanimate, vegetative, and animate levels, which do not have any freewill, and only the light acts, clarifying them and connecting them, not requiring any request from them.

But after these clarifications accumulate and the queue reaches the desires of the next level, the informational gene of the human level from all the broken Reshimot is revealed for the first time. This new Reshimo, revealed for the first time on the human speaking degree, was called “Adam,” and belonged to a man of our world who lived 5,771 years ago.

He was the first person to attain the Creator “from the bottom up,” that is, from our world. He was just like us, only the first one to reveal such a Reshimo.

He did not have a Kabbalistic group or an environment because he was the first. But correction begins with the lightest Reshimo so it was enough to give him a spiritual awakening from above, and then he himself sought revelation and achieved it. The Reshimot that are revealed after him get rougher and rougher.

We celebrate this day, the first revelation of the spiritual world, the Creator, by a man of our world, as the beginning of the New Year, Rosh HaShanah.

And the world was created “five days before that”; that is, Adam has already begun to somehow feel the upper worlds, the Sefirot, the Partzufim inside him, and during this first week, revelation came to him.
