Can One Get Rid of the Desire to Receive?

252Comment: I keep revealing the desire to receive, and there is no end to this.

My Response: We agree with you that your request to be rid of the desire to receive comes from the bottom of your heart. You suffer and want to get rid of it. However, there are still several factors here.

First of all, not all your “crimes” have been revealed to you yet. There are still many “cases” against you each of which must be revealed and shown to you, and then you will confess to each of them, and accordingly, each case will be closed.

In addition, seeing the depth of your desire to receive, seeing how much you are still an egoist although you previously thought that this was no longer so, at the same time you reveal that you did not ask in a pure form to be rid of the desire to receive. You asked to get rid of it because you felt bad from it, and not because, setting yourself aside, you desired to be rid of this quality.

You must hate it because it is against the Creator, and this is revealed gradually, together with the exposure of the desire. The greater the quantitative depth of your ego into which you descend, the more qualitatively you see that you did not at all ask to be detached from the desire to receive as from a distinct, isolated quality, apart from the fact that you feel bad because of it.
