Question: In our world, a person is born, develops, becomes an adult, and has children of their own. But when a person crosses the Machsom, does he then build himself, his soul, beyond it?

Answer: Yes. He already chooses: whether to “eat” from the mother or not, whether to be closer to her or not; he does things independently and learns from her.

Comment: In our world, a person eventually dies.

My Response: In spirituality, he dies on his current degree in order to ascend to the next degree. There is no death there as there is in our corporeal body.

He raises himself to the next degree, and after that, his previous degree dies. It seemingly disappears from his rigid governance. He begins to work with new qualities, with new ten Sefirot. The past remains beneath him; there is no longer any need for it.

Question: So is being born and dying like passing through one point in the heart until complete correction?

Answer: In spirituality, as we pass through 125 degrees, we die at each one and are born anew on the next degree.

What does “we die” mean? I have simply completed working on the previous degree and now I am as if born as a new person. I awaken and feel that new qualities have appeared within me. I begin to perceive the world in a new way. This is clearly happening to me.

Both birth and death are desirable! I myself evoke them within me.
