Question: What is this state called Moses? It seems to be present in this world and at the same time connected to the upper world.

Answer: Indeed, Moses is present in this world while simultaneously being connected to the Creator, as if existing in the upper world. We learn that as a result of the shattering of the vessels, all our souls fell to the material level, into this world.

But how do we extract the Kli from this state? If everything here stemmed only from the will to receive, we would not feel the surrounding light within our Kli, which is a desire to receive for oneself. However, within the Kli there is a point in the heart. It is this point that senses the light because it does not belong to the will to receive, to the vessel.

The point in the heart is a part of the screen that once existed before the shattering of the vessels, before the sin of the Tree of Knowledge. At one time, the vessel had a screen. After the sin of the Tree of Knowledge, the screen shattered. A part of this screen remained within our will to receive, and it is precisely this part that perceives the surrounding light because there was once a connection between the screen and the light.

Now the light has become surrounding light, coming from afar, and from the screen only a spark remains within the Kli. However, a distant connection between them is preserved through the Machsom, and this point, this spark that remained from the screen, is called Moses, from the word “Limshoch,” to pull.

By using it correctly, I draw out all my other qualities, myself, my entire inner being through the Machsom upward, bringing them out of Egypt. Thus, Moses, the point in the heart, gains strength and pulls the entire Kli out of darkness.
