If a person wants to advance toward the purpose of creation and attain spirituality at any cost, then they are taught what spirituality truly is and are helped to analyze their own personal state. They welcome criticism and the revelation of evil within themselves because this helps them identify their deficiencies in their personal work and find ways to address them.

In other words, criticism is permitted only with regard to those people who are in the group. But not for the sake of criticism itself, but so that we build an environment in which a person can feel what he truly lacks in his personal correction. In any case, the recognition of evil rests upon him himself.

Throughout the entire path we traverse, we wish to reveal the uniqueness of the Creator’s rule and to what extent we are capable of being included in this single force and becoming true partners in it together with all the evil that awakens in us.

This path consists in the fact that a person takes hold of two reins, two factors that act upon him, while the one governance stands before him as an example. He uses his desire to receive on the left side and the forces of correction on the right side to be included in the most effective way possible in the single rule of the Creator with all the forces, with all his “I,” in an active form, as His partner.

This means that he wants to come to the connection of Malchut and Zeir Anpin of Atzilut until they become equal in a state of continuous adhesion. Thus, the goal is, first, the revelation of the uniqueness of the Creator’s rule, and second, the revelation of the extent to which I am not capable of being there but want to be there and gradually, degree by degree, to be included in it as an acting partner.

At the same time, the degrees of a person’s inclusion, with all his desire, with all his abilities, gradually change in accordance with how he is included in the rule of the one and passes from the rule of the many to the single rule of the Creator.

This means that he and the Creator are under one rule, that this is only the rule of the Creator, and that he is attached, included, adhered to it with all his desires, thoughts, and actions.
