“That There Be a Will Above”

Posted on December 1st, 2023

It is known that in order to extend abundance from above, one must precede an awakening from below. We must understand why we need an awakening from below. Because of this, we pray that there will be a will above. It means that we must evoke a desire from above to impart below (Baal HaSulam. Article 57. “Will Bring Him Closer to His Will”).

To pray for the awakening of the desire above means to pray that the Creator has a desire to correct us. It should be focused on a person in accordance with his state, position, and character.

Therefore, ask the Creator to change you so that His attitude toward you becomes different and that you would have a desire to bestow to Him.

The Creator enjoys the prayer of the righteous because they begin to correctly assess that He is the giver and doer of good and turn to Him in their desire to ascend.

Question: Can we receive correction through one prayer without going through all the preliminary states?

Answer: No, we cannot go through all the states with one prayer. The Creator divides our states into many parts that are separated from each other, and for each of them we must raise a prayer.

Unity Will Save the World and Each of Us

Posted on November 30th, 2023

A modern person seems to be moving further and further away from the Creator and becoming worse and worse, but this is because the advantage of light is revealed from darkness. Therefore, this distance is precisely one of the signs of approaching the Creator and a sign that we belong to the generation of the Messiah.

This does not mean that we will begin to reveal the upper light and soar up the spiritual ladder today or tomorrow. But it is clear that our world has entered a period where the upper force of nature is keeping a very strict account with us, and we need to hurry up and help this force with our advancement in every way possible.

We need to explain to people that only our unity will save the world and each of us; otherwise, humanity will come to self-destruction.

The era of the Messiah is a time when people become capable of better understanding the message conveyed to us by the wisdom of Kabbalah and The Book of Zohar. This message says that there is a force from above that wants to come closer to us and reveal itself. It seeks to change our feelings and minds so that we can discover, attain, and become similar to it.

“From above” means that this force is entirely directed at bestowal and not at egoistic reception as we are. From above means bestowal, and from below means reception.

Torah is a light that influences a person and develops all his desires, connects them correctly so a person can directly receive the message from above, be filled with it, and connect with the upper force.

To engage in the open Torah means to begin with the kind of work that a person is capable of, which is connecting with friends who want to discover the meaning of life and its purpose. To do this, we gather in a group that encompasses an ever-widening circle of people who act based on the principle of “each one shall help his friend” and who strive to achieve love for each other.

This war has clearly shown us that our entire right to exist depends on our unity. Today this is clear to everyone already.

Covenant of Salt—Connection Forever

Posted on November 30th, 2023

Question: What does it mean to sacrifice salt? What kind of action is this in spirituality?

Answer: In the material world, we sprinkle salt on meat to prevent it from spoiling. After all, salt is the only food substance that does not decompose.

And in spirituality, we are talking about the desire for the connection between us to remain eternal. Therefore, the commitment to protect and strengthen our relationships with each other despite any obstacles is called the covenant of salt.

Question: How does the law of mutual guarantee differ from the covenant of salt? Or is it the same thing?

Answer: These are not the same thing, but they refer to the same goals: we protect our connection and our direction toward the complete correction in which we become completely one.

Waiting for an Answer

Posted on November 30th, 2023

Question: In Baal HaSulam’s article “Two States,” it is said that the answer to a request to the Creator comes after a long time. It seems that there is some kind of bureaucracy at the top as if a letter to Him was lost there.

But it turns out that when a person begins to ask, his request is not yet complete and its adjustment begins, which takes time. Is this why you have to wait a long time for an answer? And when the request comes to a perfect state, does the person receive it?

Answer: We do not know that. Each time it can be a different reason. But we must understand that there is only one higher root that controls everything, and when it is revealed, it becomes clear to us that there is a higher control. And when it hides, it is clear that that control is at the level of our world.

Question: So, is it impossible to answer why such a period occurs?

Answer: This may not be clear to us. However, everything happens according to the same direction from above. Whether the Creator will answer or make a person forget depends on the upper management.

Dangerous Ascent

Posted on November 30th, 2023

(Rashbi) …he permitted only Rabbi Aba to write, for he could disclose with intimation, so only the sages of the children of Israel would understand, and the sages of the nations would not understand, for fear that the wicked would know how to serve their masters (Baal HaSulam “The Shofar of the Messiah,“ “Writing The Zohar and Concealing It”).

Question: What is the danger that sinners will learn how to serve their master?

Answer: The danger is that sinners will somehow be able to serve the Creator and receive from Him without correcting themselves all kinds of correct answers that will lift them on the ladder, although they do not deserve it. They would be creating conditions for themselves to climb the ladder of the spiritual worlds without changing internally.

Comment: This is a bit like the work of Lo Lishma (for myself). But this is a necessary step to come to Lishma (for the sake of others).

My Response: No, this degree is not necessary. You cannot approach and do what you wish without correcting your tools with which you will work with light and Reshimot (spiritual information data) because you are uncorrected. All sorts of wrong thoughts, desires, goals, and actions will arise in you.

Question: It seems that we have the opportunity to receive without correcting ourselves, right?

Answer: Yes, it is emphasized, on one hand, that there is such an opportunity to be inside the system. But, on the other hand, it cannot be used in any way because it is given precisely so that it can be declined.

That is part of the correction when we are offered such a path, but we do not accept it.

In the Same Direction

Posted on November 30th, 2023

Question: In “As Though Standing before a King“ (211), Baal HaSulam says that a person should be careful in all the material things that he receives so that they do not cancel out his Hisaron (spiritual need). How does the ten help a person in this?

Answer: Try, in your common desire for the Creator, to imagine that you are in front of Him, that you support each other, that you turn to Him together, and that you have no problems other than remaining in connection with Him. Be together with all your friends in the ten in the same direction so that the common aspiration for an even greater rapprochement with the Creator becomes constant.

You must try to see the Creator in front of you all the time and hold on to Him. If you constantly imagine that He is in front of you, then gradually you will succeed.

Therefore, a practical tool for your spiritual work is to imagine the power of the Creator before you. And when He answers you, i.e., draws you closer, you will begin to see the world differently.

Sorting and Analysis

Posted on November 30th, 2023

Question: How can I hate reception for my own sake? Is it possible to learn this or to understand how to reach this? It seems that there are some moments of enlightenment, as if you come closer to the Creator and then He pushes you away again.

Answer: First of all, you should check what the actions that you perform give you: whether they bring you closer to the Creator or distance you from Him, whether they bring you closer to your friends or distance you from them.

With the help of such sorting, with the help of such analysis, you will be able to understand what is happening to you and change the direction of your development.

Questions about Spiritual Work—31

Posted on November 30th, 2023

Question: Under the open governance of the Creator does a person always feel only mercy and goodness?

Answer: Yes, of course. How could it be otherwise? He feels the Creator, that is, only positive effects on himself.

Question: Why do we say in some cases that if there is a plea, the answer is ready immediately, and in other cases we wait for years, months, or days for answers?

Answer: It does not depend on us. We should just increase our plea. If this is a true request, we should focus on it and direct it to the Creator all the time.

Question: There is a great need for the Creator in our ten. We feel that we really miss Him. What else do we need to bring contentment to the Creator?

Answer: We lack a real sense of the need for the Creator to become one and, in this unity, to feel that the Creator is in us.
