Talks about the Steps of the Ladder, Part 158

Does a Person Who Turns to the Creator Imagine Him as He Truly Is?

If a person turns to the Creator, they are directing themselves correctly at what the Creator is. They still do not see Him. They will see Him later when the Creator helps them and grants them the sensation of adhesion. However, they are already aimed at the Creator.

This can be illustrated as follows: A person searches for the Creator on their own, knowing He is behind a curtain, and calls out, “Where are You? Where!?” When they feel they are incapable of finding the Creator by themselves, they become disappointed and cry out in frustration, “Reveal where You are!”

This is a sign that the person is truly now standing before the Creator. And at that point, the Creator will answer them.
