Questions about Faith Above Reason

281.02Question: Is knowledge different from sensation?

Answer: Knowledge is defined as clear attainment in the vessels of reception. Faith above reason means that I am not going to attain in my vessels of reception; that is not my goal. The goal is to attain equivalence of form, adherence to faith above reason, above the vessels of reception.

Question: Is egoism a part of the process of correction?

Answer: The ego is not a part of the process and not the process itself; it is the force by which I build my process of correction. I can remain on the level of desiring to be in the Creator’s place, to rule instead of Him, or I can come to the understanding that I must be similar to the Creator, acquire His qualities, and then rule instead of Him. But “instead of Him” does not mean “against Him.”

Question: What should be the measure of faith above reason?

Answer: The measure of faith above reason must apply to the entirety of a person’s reason. All the vessels of reception must be covered by the vessels of bestowal, by the quality of bestowal, by Bina.

Question: What does “love the Lord your God” mean?

Answer: Attaining the state of “love the Lord your God” means that I have carried out the correction of all my knowledge and all my vessels of reception to the point where I have attained complete equivalence with the Creator. That is, by faith above reason, I have acquired vessels and am now in the state of “love the Lord your God.”

Question: What is complete faith and how can one attain it?

Answer: There is faith, and there is complete faith. What does this mean? Faith is called the quality of bestowal, which a person acquires from Bina. If one attains the small state of GE (Galgalta veEnaiym, bestowal for the sake of bestowal, this means that he has acquired the force of faith. If he can add AHP to GE, to receive for the sake of bestowal, this is called complete faith, when inside the light of Hassadim there is the light of Hochma.
