Question: We constantly talk about how I must create some intention and maintain it. To use the desire to receive without intention is animalistic. To use this desire with the intention to receive pleasure for myself is wicked. To use this desire to bring contentment to the Creator is righteous.

But who is the one who strives to form this intention?

Answer: It is the person, the one whose efforts are directed at continually defining the Creator as the source of everything that happens.

Firstly this means “There is none else besides Him.” Secondly, it means that “He is good that does good.”

These two parameters must be defined by me. When I determine them, the starting point within me from which I affirm “There is none else besides Him” and “He is good that does good” is what is called my “I.” Then, this point automatically adheres to the Creator.
