An Eternal Action

249.02Question: What is an “eternal action”?

Answer: An action that exists in the spiritual world is called eternal. In the material world, all our actions leave no memory behind. They bring no benefit and produce no result.

It is simply astonishing how a person wants to preserve what he has done, what he has achieved, and what he has invested in. He wants something to remain after him, and he does not understand that these things have no value in relation to eternity.

In spirituality, however, it is the opposite. Although initially the desire to receive is uncorrected, you correct it and fill it with light and thereby build a Partzuf, a spiritual object, and this remains.

Later, the Partzuf is purified as it ascends to ever higher degrees, but the acquired screen remains forever. In this way, you build your Kelim (vessels). Each time, you move from the last Kli in which you find yourself to a new one, while the others remain behind you like links in a chain that you have brought into being.

There is nothing like this in the material world, because matter merely changes its form, while the previous form disappears without a trace.
