Talks about the Steps of the Ladder, Part 156

When Do We Despair of Our Own Strength?

We come to despair of our own strength only after going through all incorrect searches. We aim our “rifle” at various states and things, and only afterward do we arrive at the correct state, where we truly feel this sense of despair. However, this comes only after all other states.

We need to pass through all such states, and there can be thousands of them. We do not know how many thousands, perhaps there could be billions of states, and through their mutual inclusion within one another, they all exist within us.

However, if we receive good support from the environment, we go through them without even sensing the pace at which they are passing.
