The Guest And The Host Meet Inside The Ten

934We read Kabbalistic texts and do not know how to understand what is written because we do not belong to the system of the common soul, which consists of ten Sefirot or to a group in which we must find a connection with our friends.

I read “faith above reason” and I don’t know what to do with it. And the action is very simple: unite so that there is no difference between me and the others, and we all become like the ten Sefirot of one spiritual Partzuf.

If we connect in this way, we will begin to feel what is spiritual, what a Partzuf is, and how the Creator works within it. We will already be in another world. Instead of people, I will feel the ten Sefirot within which the upper force operates. This will already be the upper world, not our world.

In this way, I will cross from world to world, and in this form, I will continue to exist. I will take care of the material because I have not yet completely detached myself from it and completely moved into the spiritual, but I perceive it as a secondary thing.

I will take care of my body like a horse or donkey that exists around me and supports my life. But all my spiritual work concerning the Creator takes place within this Kli where we all connect together.

Inside this vessel, the Creator gives me filling as a Host, and I accept it as a guest. All this is only inside the ten. We meet the Creator as a guest and a Host within the ten: “I am my beloved’s and my beloved is mine.”

This is all our work. And so, reading about faith above reason, you need to think about how to implement what is written in the ten. And if a person does not have a ten, he should try to find one as soon as possible. Otherwise, all his advancement will remain only written on paper and will never be implemented.

After all, Kabbalah is a practical, applicable science that teaches us from lesson to lesson how to realize our unity more and more until we begin to reveal the Creator in it more and more.

And so we bond with each other until we return to one soul as it existed before the sin of Adam HaRishon with the Tree of Knowledge, and we feel within our connection the Creator and the entire upper world, our eternal state. In other words, we already reach eternity by having risen to the level of bestowal, faith above reason.

Is Shame A Means Of Defeat Or An Ascent?

276.06Remark: Shame is inherent only in the human race and is subdivided according to levels of desire. The more developed a person is, the more often he has a state of shame.

My Comment: Shame is a feeling of imperfection. In animals, the sense of shame is completely absent. But sometimes, even in advanced people, this feeling can be completely suppressed. And people who are close to nature, more finely tuned, can feel shame.

Question: Shame is the most hated feeling for a person. People are willing to commit suicide rather than feel public shame. What is the root of this painful phenomenon for a person?

Answer: The fact that it affects the “I” of a person, his egoism, which is our essence. Therefore, for a selfishly developing person, shame is the biggest defeat. He can’t stand it.

Remark: They say that in the absence of witnesses, the feeling of shame does not arise.

My Comment: Yes. Usually, shame only manifests itself in relation to something or someone. In particular, regarding the specific rules that exist in the surrounding society. We always evaluate ourselves relative to our surroundings.

Question: You write that a person needs shame in front of the Creator. That is, to achieve this is a great means of correction. This feeling is awarded to high souls. What is this about?

Answer: If a person really begins to feel his connection with the Creator, then he already measures himself in relation to Him. This is where he feels shame as a means of ascent to the Creator.

The Creator Is Not Evil Fate But An Integral System

261Question:  Why is the feeling of evil a denial of the Creator’s control, and not accepting His control as evil? After all, if He rules, then what is the reason that I feel evil?

Answer: It makes no difference how you perceive the Creator. What is important is how you see yourself with regard to the goal.

You can perceive Him in any way you want, either good or evil. He sends you problems, He puts obstacles along your path, He invokes such confusion in your mind and your emotions that you cannot even imagine. All of this comes from the Creator.

But what does it mean that it is from the Creator? It is not someone’s bad luck, and it is not a person sitting above planning and conspiring against you. The Creator is an absolute, integral system in which there is both the initial and the ultimate point of our evolution, and there is the best and shortest way between these two points. If we divert from this path, the system puts us back on track by force.

The main thing is to understand how we can bring ourselves back to the right and shortest distance from our state to the goal of creation so that we will completely be the masters of the whole system, which means that we will be eternal and whole like the system itself.

So, we do not need to ascribe human attributes to the Creator, although this is how we usually speak, because a person can only express himself according to what he knows and is familiar with.

How Can A Law Of Nature Be Jealous?

592.02Question: What does the expression “The Creator is jealous” mean? After all, we see Him as the law of nature. In addition, it is said: “If you leave Me for one day, then I will leave you for two days.” How can the law of nature be jealous?

Answer: The Creator is a higher power that requires development from us. Therefore, if we let go of Him and do not pay attention to this power, then He plays with us in such a way that we begin to feel our behavior was wrong. If we leave Him for a day, He leaves us for two days so that we can hold on to Him.

Question: How does this manifest itself?

Answer: Just like you have with your child who does not pay attention to you and you think about how you can attract him to you.

Question: Yes, but with the child, we have common organs of sensation, with the Creator, we do not. How can I decipher that the Creator left me for two days?

Answer: You feel on yourself that you suddenly stopped doing the things that you need. You have to deal with them, but you cannot, so you have no attraction to them.

Awe Before The Law Of Nature

246Question: What is fear? Many sources speak about awe before the Creator. If we consider the Creator to be a single law of nature, what does it mean to be in awe before this law?

Answer: Awe means that I am in a state of increased self-examination of whether I am following the laws of nature correctly. I am afraid to break these laws and hurt others.

At that, I do this not out of fear, but because I really want to fulfill them, to support the Creator, nature, in all its qualities.

Can Joy Be Eternal?

572.02Question: What state does a person mostly feel joy from: from the past, the present, or the future?

Answer: From the present, of course. This feeling is the most acute. As for the future, it is the anticipation of joy. It may last longer. And the joy from the past leaves a certain impression and turns into knowledge, into what we call a Reshimo (informational record).

Question: Joy is a consequence of fulfilling our desires. But the fulfillment of desires extinguishes them and it turns out that the joy disappears. How can the joy be made to last forever?

Answer: It is necessary to separate the feeling of joy itself and the object that caused it. For example, if you feel joy from the achievements of your child who is constantly developing, then this joy does not disappear. And if you are happy about some of your successes, then this feeling goes away very quickly.

In other words, when joy is felt from an external source, then it can be long lasting, almost endless.

The Main Thing Is To Stick Together

557If we yearn for the Creator, we attract the reforming light, which corrects us, brings us closer, and organizes us. Day by day, we feel new thoughts and new desires coming to us. They do not just appear accidentally out of thin air; all this comes purposefully, like elements of the single system in which we exist.

There is nothing accidental. Therefore I should not blame myself for not being as sharp today as I was yesterday. Yesterday, I was thinking more seriously and feeling more deeply, but today, I suddenly cannot do that. Yet, all this is organized from above for my correct advancement from state to state.

The main thing we need is to stick together. This is the only effort that we need to make. And everything else will be arranged from above.

Holding The Steering Wheel Of The Management Of Creation

934A ten, the minimal system that resembles the whole of creation, can impact everything. This means that you have the steering wheel by which you can impact not only our world, but also all the worlds.

If you mutually cooperate correctly in the ten, you ascend to a higher level in the hierarchy of mutual cooperation of the whole system. To the extent that you are connected between you, this is the impact from the level in which you find the connections between you in the ten. Then you really have the steering wheel in your hands.

And people around you will begin to understand that we are entering a special living system, which actually exists and which actually impacts the whole world. It is only to the extent that we participate correctly in the ten, that we participate openly and practically all over the world, in the whole system of creation, in all the worlds.

What is this principle? There are 125 levels of spiritual attainment, and we have to ascend to the first level. To the extent that we unite in a ten, we will begin to determine our state on the spiritual ladder and thus ascend. The greater the unity in the ten, the higher the level we will ascend. The more we unite, the higher the level we will ascend.

The higher you are, the wider perspective you automatically have of the integral system of all the worlds, and thus you impact them more accordingly. This means that the steering wheel is gradually revealed, and thanks to it, you can navigate and manage things a bit to the left and a bit to the right. You begin to understand the gradual cooperation of all the elements in the system. You will be able to actually manage them at least like in a plane, and it will be even more concrete than being a navigator in the cockpit.

You will see the extent to which all the levels of inanimate, vegetative,  animate, and speaking nature that are in you, and the levels that are in the ten, in the connection between you, will be connected and tuned to perceiving the impact of the whole system by the ten, and to manage it through the ten.

This is the phase that we have to adapt to realistically this year. I am truly hopeful that we will reach it. The main thing is to invoke the desire to want to feel that inside us, to participate in the giant schema of the whole creation and to be inside it!

A person needs to understand how the system exists in mutual cooperation, how it breathes, how he impacts it, and how it impacts him. There cannot be any special revelations in the levels of of inanimate, vegetative, and animate nature that operate instinctively and quite primitively.

However, on the level of the speaking is our world group and also some other small groups that are relatively striving to reach this feeling of creation in their own way. Other than that, the souls that have already been through these phases of evolution and are on different levels also connect here and exist in this dimension.

Penetrating Inside A Ten

942Question: I have a regular great ten, and we prepare for the lesson together and support each other during the day. During the day, however, I create other tens in order to disseminate or do different jobs in the building.

As a result I feel a bit uncomfortable. How should I build the relations with the regular ten and with the collective corporeal life with the others?

Answer: You should be glad and feel comfortable because it is basically the same thing. There aren’t any differences between the tens.

I look at the tens that are in front of me, and I would gladly sit with any of them. Each ten is so wonderful in its uniqueness, and it is absolutely amazing to see how wonderful it is!

I see how they speak, how they communicate between them, how they mutually cooperate, and how connected they are. It is amazing how different they all are, but I would gladly be part of one or another or yet another. It really helps us develop! And it is very good when one person can be part of several tens.

I was in favor of random tens from the start, but at the moment people feel better in regular tens, and I understand them. I think this will soon pass.

When the internal model of a ten will appear in each of us, we will be able to fill it by connecting to more people who are members of our movement. We will not feel the people themselves, but their internal essence, and they will begin to fill the model of the ten that is built in us. This means that ten seemingly empty places will be created inside each one, and will be filled by impressions from one circle or another.

This will provide a person with quicker and fuller attainment of the whole soul. After all, the general soul is not made of one primitive ten, but of many tens, each of which is integrated in another.

By penetrating the spiritual connection in the ten, we will begin to understand what it lacks. We would like to divide it into parts, but this is impossible since we don’t feel that yet. Therefore, it is necessary to understand that all of creation should be composed of a great amount of tens, which means that the Sefirot are divided into many tens, or vice versa, and are connected into many Partzufim, and thus, into one whole ten.

But this whole ten that is attained in the world of Ein Sof (Infinity) comprises an infinite amount of tens. So it is through this ten that you will receive more than from all the other tens, an infinite amount of feelings and emotions.

It All Starts With A Drop Of Semen

232.07The human body begins with a drop of semen: a single cell that multiplies and forms new cells. But all of them implement the very program that was laid in the first cell that started it all.

The drop of semen already has all the information. One day scientists will learn to decode this information so that one cell will show the entire person that will develop from it, his entire fate and abilities, whether he will be a great scientist or a musician.

It is all there, in a drop of semen, but only in potential. If these potential forces get the material to work with, they will begin to build the human body according to the program placed in the first cell where every organ and every cell of a large healthy organism is described. We only need to provide food, the material, for its construction.

It is the same with our desire. In each of us there is a point, the first drop obtained as a result of shattering. Our common body was shattered into many parts, and if we join into ten, we will restore the drop of semen, the desire. In addition, we will draw the light that reforms.

We need two things: desire and light. On one hand, there are our ten potential forces, and on the other hand comes the light that reforms, which will connect them back into one drop of semen. None of us can become a drop of semen, each of us is only a tenth of the seed from which the soul will develop.

We draw the upper light, which connects us and begins to form a larger and larger spiritual structure called the soul or Partzuf.

Therefore, we must try to unite and from this unity turn to the Creator so that He can send us the light that reforms that will develop us. These are the two areas of our work.

It seems to me that the Creator gives me foreign thoughts that throw me out. But this reveals new forces of egoistic desires inside the ten, which must be added as fuel. Thanks to this, the ten will strengthen, grow fat, and build itself.

However, when we receive this additional fuel, it has not yet been processed correctly, and therefore feels like foreign forces of separation. If in spite of this, we join together, then we swallow this force inside ourselves and expand and grow at the expense of it. This is how waste is turned into food.
