True Awe

259.02If a person studies the science of Kabbalah correctly, he begins to receive continuous pleasure, moves from victory to victory, ascends the steps of spiritual elevation, and gains ever greater Hisaron.

He corrects it more and more with the intention to bestow and fills it more and more. Even more Hisaron, more intention to give, more filling, and so one progresses to unlimited fulfillment, which is called the final correction (Gmar Tikkun).

But Gmar Tikkun does not mean we completed everything. There can be no constant bestowal. Bestowal must constantly increase; otherwise, it is not giving. Therefore, a person gradually reaches a state called Ein Sof, infinity, when he has no limitations on his ability to continually increase his Kelim with intentions and filling.

Then a person reaches what is called the real, true awe. This awe comes from the concern of whether he can bestow, that is, to what extent he can take on additional needs, whether he will be able to correct himself through them, add a screen, and receive for the sake of giving. This is the meaning of true awe.

As a result, he receives filling from above—the light of the Torah. This light and awe that fill him, together create a feeling called the joy of the Torah. Of this, it is written that being in joy is a great commandment. After all, a person who has corrected his Kelim, received the filling and the upper light called Torah, reaches joy.
