Torah, Numbers 12:01: Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses regarding the Cushite woman he had married, for he had married a Cushite woman.

Moses’s wife Zipporah is a Cushite, meaning she is dark-skinned. It means that Moses’s Malchut is much darker, harder, and heavier than the desires of Miriam and Aaron. Therefore, when he works with her, he reaches a higher level.

In the same way, we now have to attach ourselves to all of humanity. Can you imagine the Malchut that is waiting to be connected?! At the same time, when this happens all will receive such an elevation!

Question: Why is it that after the exodus from Egypt the people of Israel were constantly complaining and were not satisfied by this progress?

Answer: This is how the present is assessed in relation to the past and the freedom of will is selected from the two states.

This happens on every degree, at every step, since egoism is always growing and we need to rise above it. Greater egoism and greater ascent. This goes on until we enter the land of Israel. Throughout the 40 years of wandering in the desert, we all climb Mount Sinai.

Previously only Moses ascended it, but now we are pulling everyone along with us. This means he is leading the people across the desert.

The ascent to Mount Sinai, meaning the ascent above mutual hatred, is the purpose of man’s life. This is the start of bestowal, love, mutual connection, and the union of everyone into one single whole, and to this extent—the Creator is revealed.

The land of Israel is attained only at the end when you reach love. But the entire ascent lies in rising above egoism. This is called “having the quality of Hassadim.”

Hesed is mercy: when you are concerned about others the same way they are concerned about you.

During this, each time at the level you are on, there is a suppression of your needs by reassessing the needs of others as more valuable, more necessary. It is similar to how a mother takes care of a baby, valuing its needs more than anything. That is how we are in relation to everyone.

It is as if you let another person inside you, completely free up space for him on this degree. When you do this, the egoism of the next degree immediately begins to arise in you. It is so strong that you do not even notice that person, and if you happen to see him, he annoys you and is repulsive to you. Then you start working on this again until he becomes closer to you than you are to yourself.

This means you have entered a new degree. And it continues over and over.

Torah, Leviticus 7:21: And a person who touches anything unclean, whether uncleanness from a human or an unclean animal [carcass] or any unclean [carcass of an] abominable creature, and then eats of the flesh of a peace offering to the Lord, that soul shall be cut off from its people.

A corpse symbolizes an uncorrected egoistic desire. It died by itself, but it has not yet been corrected.

In other words, there is life and death. After the egoistic life of a desire comes the death of the ego and then its alteration to altruism. It moves like a wave: plus-minus, plus-minus. You plunge into minus (egoism), come to zero, and then you translate egoism to altruism. But a zero still does not mean anything. You can deal only with the spiritually alive.

“Touching the unclean” means entering into an inner contact with an egoistic desire, being with it in adaptation, in understanding, in a mutual state. That is, if you can say spiritually that “I came into contact with someone,” then you are in the same state as he is. And if he is a dead body, then you are at the same level.

It is written: “And a person who touches anything unclean… and then eats of the flesh of a peace offering to the Lord, that soul shall be cut off from its people.” You cannot bless, you cannot do such deeds.

This is about the laws of incompatibility or the laws of similarity because everything in the universe is built on the property of similarity.

Torah, Exodus 24:15 – 24:18: And Moses went up to the mountain, and the cloud covered the mountain. And the glory of the Lord rested on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it for six days, and He called to Moses on the seventh day from within the cloud. And the appearance of the glory of the Lord was like a consuming fire atop the mountain, before the eyes of the children of Israel. And Moses came within the cloud, and he went up to the mountain, and Moses was upon the mountain forty days and forty nights.

“And Moses went up to the mountain” and disappeared into the cloud means he had completely reached the property of Bina (the 40^th property).Forty is the level of Bina with respect to Malchut. Absolute, complete bestowal is the first general stage of a person’s ascension.

Question: Why did Moses enter the cloud?

Answer: Entering the cloud symbolizes the entrance of the Creator’s power to this stage. And then, over the course of 40 years, Moses rises more fully into this stage and completes the work before the entrance of the people into the “Land of Israel,” into the next state. “And Moses was upon the mountain forty days and forty nights” because there is no day without night and no night without day. A person must first plunge into the night, into all the opposite egoistic qualities and express them, and only then, with the help of the Light, can he correct them to the properties of Bina. Therefore, “and there was evening, and there was morning—one day” means that everything begins at night.

Moses received the tablets, the Torah, and the commandments; he descended from the mountain and began to work. This means that a person has pulled himself up to his highest level, got hooked, appeared in the world like a newborn, and now needs to raise himself into the new world.

In order to come to this state, he is given an instruction—a Light of correction that awaits until a person needs it.

Torah, Exodus 23:31: And I will make your boundary from the Red Sea to the sea of the Philistines, and from the desert to the river, for I will deliver the inhabitants of the land into your hands, and you shall drive them out from before you.

The land of Israel, in principle, is not big, that is, the egoistic desire of man is very small. But at spiritual levels, it gradually grows. When a person ascends from a small spiritual level to a higher and higher one, he reveals the whole world.

This is not our universe, which in itself does not represent a serious spiritual volume; it is simply a zero; it does not exist. In the true world where we really are, it does not exist. It is like our reflection.

We do not know and do not see ourselves. It is as if we are sleeping now, living our material life in a dream. In this dream, we are given the beginning of the spiritual work, which helps us to awaken.

If we wake up with its help, that is, enter the spiritual world, we see that everything that was inside us before is just an illusion. We had all kinds of brain fluctuations and we pictured everything in our imagination. And now we are real, spiritual.

Therefore, material life with respect to the spiritual is like a dream. After all, we do nothing, we do not perform any material actions, and even the desires that we allegedly use are not desires—they are nothing.

But as soon as you wake up, that is, as soon as you are born spiritually, you understand that everything that occurred earlier was a dream.

Now the question arises: if a person awakens from sleep and begins to live in a spiritual volume, in another dimension, how does he, while performing some actions, suddenly appear in this dream and begin to help others exit it? How does he plunge into this? In other words, he has reached a certain spiritual level and is told: “You must be in the dream with those who are still in it.”

Question: That is, a Kabbalist, like a stalker, is sent to awaken humanity from sleep and lead it into a new state and does this work?

Answer: Of course! In spirituality, you are shown this necessity and it becomes yours.

The Torah, Exodus 24:01 – 24:02: And to Moses He said, “Come up to the Lord, you and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel, and prostrate yourselves from afar. And Moses alone shall approach the Lord but they shall not approach, and the people shall not ascend with him.”

These are steps of development.  There are different levels of desires within a person. The people are the egoistic desire corrected for bestowal, but corrected at a small height.

Then come the Levites, the Cohens, the children of Aaron (Nadav and Avhiu), Aaron, and finally Moses. This whole hierarchy personifies one person. That is, the people and all the righteous are all in one person. And Moses is at the top of the pyramid, so only he can approach the Creator, and all the rest, not.

The Torah, Exodus 24:03 – 24:04: So Moses came and told the people all the words of the Lord and all the ordinances, and
all the people answered in unison and said, “All the words that the Lord has spoken we will do.”

And Moses wrote all the words of the Lord, and he arose early in the morning and built an altar at the foot of the mountain and twelve monuments for the twelve tribes of Israel.

The people are all the egoistic desires of man. They are under Moses. He pulls them up like a fisherman who throws a net into the sea and now is gradually pulling fish out of the water.

Torah, Exodus 23:28 – 23:30: And I will send the tzir’ah before you, and it will drive out the Hivvites, the Canaanites, and the Hittites from before you. I will not drive them away from before you in one year, lest the land become desolate and the beasts of the field outnumber you. I will drive them out from before you little by little, until you have increased and can occupy the land.

There are countless qualities and desires in a person. Gradually correcting them, one must replace them with the qualities of the Creator: substituting the egoistic use for oneself with altruistic use, and the hatred for others with love.

It is written: “I will not drive them away from before you in one year, lest the land become desolate.” The land is desire. How can we work with them? The fact is that we are arranged according to the four-step internal principle and therefore, we correct ourselves gradually from the lighter to the coarser egoistic layers.

This is an individual process typical for a person who wants to achieve the goal. Yet, for people who do not understand and do not realize their egoistic nature, such actions must be performed over them as over small children.

Torah, Deuteronomy 33:02: He said: “The Lord came from Sinai and shone forth from Seir to them; He appeared from Mount Paran and came with some of the holy myriads; from His right hand was a fiery Law for them.

The correction of the sons of Israel began at Mount Sinai. Before that, they were under the rule of their egoism.

It was at Mount Sinai that they began the correction under the influence of the upper Light, called the Torah. Before exiting Egypt, they were under the rule of the Pharaoh, that is, the Light obviously did not work on them and they were not following the clear instruction for their correction.

The fact is that starting from Mount Sinai and onward, the two-way connection is revealed between them and the Creator. Here what we call raising MAN is already accomplished, by feeding on the so-called manna.

The sons of Israel raised their desires to the Creator, to the next level above them, then they received an influence from there and ascended further, until they reached the entrance to the land of Israel, that is, until they acquired all the tools with which they could openly work with their egoism.

It is written: “And shone forth from Seir to them; He appeared from Mount Paran.” Seir and Paran symbolize a kind of road signs.

The fact is that in ancient times, along each road there were definite markers showing the direction to the traveller. The people of Israel moved from place to place using them like the road pillars. This means that they moved along the spiritual degrees from one state to another.

“Radiance” (Sapphire, from the word “Sefira”) symbolizes the reflected Light. They begin to work with it, that is, with the quality of bestowal, just as it is emanated from the Creator. That is, a person himself becomes a source of Light, although reflected, but he is a source.

Question: What does it mean: “And came with some of the holy myriads”?

Answer: It is very difficult to comment on the translated Torah. To do this, we must take the original in Hebrew and then we will see a completely different picture. Maybe it means tens of thousands of degrees, when they have already reached the level of Rosh de Arich Anpin, the head of the world of Atzilut.

This is the highest degree, and there the Creator already begins to pass the reigns of control to them. It is because the desires that have reached such a level are already ready to perform all the actions of correction on themselves.

Torah, Exodus 23:23: For My angel will go before you, and bring you to the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Canaanites, the Hivvites, and the Jebusites, and I will destroy them.

All of these tribes symbolize desires that need to change from egoistic to altruistic use.

An angel is a force that leads to these desires. You will feel how certain kinds of egoistic inclinations are being revealed in you. And you can count them since each of them has its own manifestation and character, as if it were a people inside of you.

As a result, it is as if you first become one person, then another, then a third, and so on.

It is written: “I will destroy them.” While being inside egoistic desires, you will want to get rid of them because these qualities are absolutely opposite to the Creator.

The desire to get rid of them is necessary; we cannot do without it. Unless a person decides to get rid of them no matter what and asks for it, the Light will not be able to perform this action.

Torah, Deuteronomy 34:01 – 34:04: And Moses went up from the plains of Moab to Mount Nebo, [to the] top of the summit facing Jericho. And the Lord showed him all the Land: The Gilead until Dan, and all [the land of] Naftali, and the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, and all the land of Judah, until the western sea, and the south, and the plain, the valley of Jericho, the city of palm trees, until Zoar.

And the Lord said to him, “This is the Land I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, ‘I will give it to your offspring.’ I have let you see it with your eyes, but you shall not cross over there.”

The quality of Moses is not in the land of Israel because the land relates to Malchut and to all the degrees coming from Bina to Malchut, and Moses is the upper Bina.

The mission of Moses ends at this, and so it is said that “he died.”

Torah, Deuteronomy 34:05 – 34:06: And Moses, the servant of the Lord, died there, in the land of Moab, by the mouth of the Lord. And He buried him in the valley, in the land of Moab, opposite Beth Pe’or. And no person knows the place of his burial, unto this day.

The place of his burial is unknown because Bina does not have a place. This is a state that is not in the land of Israel. However, physically, historically, it certainly can be found because it was reflected in the material world.

In our world, there were the people of Israel who exited Egypt, went through the desert, and reached the promised land. That is, the spiritual root must necessarily be reflected in the earthy form as well in our world. Therefore, everything can be found.
