When the Desire Changes

234Question: When a person corrects quality of receiving something with the intention “for the sake of bestowal,” is it possible that he might come to a feeling of discomfort that the Creator had to carry out such a procedure?

Answer: No, there is no such thing. Don’t make it up.

When the desire in a person changes, he sees the whole reality through his new desire, and no questions remain in him, he fully agrees with it.

281.02Question: In order to correct the state of shame, the Creator placed us in such a distant world where we don’t even feel that He is the source of life. How can we feel and imagine what life is from the perspective of the spiritual world?

Answer: Gradually, we will feel it. For now, try to think about it as much as possible and strive to feel it.

Question: What clothes the action with the intention “for the sake of giving contentment to the Creator” when we want to hold on to the fact that we wish to do it for Him?

Answer: Your intention, that which you think about, is what causes this action within you.

Question: Is the feeling of shame some kind of safeguard against “not yearning to receive eternal delight”?

Answer: Yes.

Question: What should we do if we discover in the ten that we do not feel the Creator? What practical actions can be applied?

Answer: Everything that is prescribed for us in the study of TES (The Study of the Ten Sefirot), we must accept and try to implement in practice.

Question: Should we strive for shame to appear in us, or is it a gift from the Creator?

Answer: Shame is the feeling that you do not correspond to the plans of the Creator.

Mutual Influence

232.1Question: What is this condition that allows a creature to touch infinity?

Answer: Infinity is the infinite mutual influence of the Creator and creation.

We study that the Creator influences creation as He wants. He has a plan according to which He constantly transforms creation in order to fill it more and more with Himself.

In accordance with this, the creation is changing and becoming more and more like the Creator. This is how they affect each other.

Question: In this case, is shame still present in this combination, or is it transformed, or is it disappearing?

Answer: Shame is present. Wherever the creation feels removed from the Creator, it feels shame.

We Still Have Much to Attain

283.01Question: Does the feeling of shame in knowledge somehow contribute to our ascent in faith above reason?

Answer: Possibly yes. But this will not manifest now, but on the next, higher stages. We will feel shame for our desire, our states.

Question: And in this way, we will rise in faith above reason? Or do we still need some other parameters?

Answer: There is still much more that we need. So simply continue studying.

Without Klipot, There Is No Advancement

207Question: Is the root of corruption the very desire to receive itself or my dependence on the desire to receive, that is, the conscious or unconscious execution of its orders?

Answer: No, the desire to receive itself is the foundation for all the Klipot, for all the wrong actions and intentions.

Question: It is said that the Klipot create concealment. Does this mean they necessary after all?

Answer: Of course they are necessary. They show us in which cases our desires, intentions, and actions are incorrect. Therefore, without Klipot, we cannot move forward.

For every action of the light, there is an action of the Klipot.

Close Interconnection

243.01Question: There is the concept “there is none else besides Him” and the concept “shame of the receiver.” How closely are they interconnected?

Answer: The desire to receive and the desire to bestow are very closely interconnected with each other and manifest in a person depending on one’s choice, on what one wishes to receive, in how one wants to feel oneself and the entire universe.

Then we will experience firsthand how this changes.

Reveal the Sinner Within

250Question: What does it mean to reveal the sinner within yourself during the lesson, and what should one do with this?

Answer: In the process of studying, we begin to separate thoughts and actions into positive or negative, that is, to clarify what in us is positive or negative in our actions, in our intentions. In this way, we will move forward.

Question: Should I be searching for the sinner within myself right now?

Answer: You won’t be able to find either a sinner or a righteous one within yourself. For that, you must delve deeper and deeper into the study. And then you will feel from the material being studied itself whether it relates to a positive or a negative form.

To Whom TES Is Revealed

250Question: How can one strive to study TES (Talmud Eser Sefirot, The Study of the Ten Sefirot) not for the sake of receiving, but for the sake of bestowal?

Answer: Think about this all the time. I have no other advice right now.

Question: To whom is TES revealed? To one who thinks about this or to one who is patient? What is the main quality needed for the Creator to be revealed?

Answer: The main thing is to be similar to the Creator.
