      What kind of feeling is the first restriction and massah(screen)?

        Since it has no relationship or similarity to any feeling in this world, there are no words to describe that. Baal HaSulam says one would chop their own limbs off seven times per day, to taste spirituality for one moment in their life. We don’t have any pleasure we would do that for – not even the most addictive drug. We simply can’t imagine spiritual life whatsoever. So, Kabbalists don’t attempt to describe it.

      Is the rosh the awareness of the Light?

      To the degree Malchut is aware she’s rejecting the Light, and why she’s rejecting it, and from whom she is rejecting it, and this awareness shapes her intention…  that would be the rosh.

      And, equal and opposite to that on the other side of the screen, she could allow the Light to fill the toch to the same degree that her intention had become correct?

        Kabbalists don’t say that the Rosh is awareness of the Light. But the Rosh is indeed the place where the decision to receive or not, and how much light to receive, is made. And it’s born from contact with and assessment of the nature of the Light and the Creator’s intention and love.

      I understand the concept of the host and the guest. In the spiritual world, what exactly are we receiving and bestowing? I’ve heard the term ‘love’ used, what is that love made of, and how is it expressed or shown to us? Also, what kinds of actions or inner work would be considered ‘receiving in order to bestow’?

        I understand the concept of the host and the guest. In the spiritual world, what exactly are we receiving and bestowing? The Direct Light (Ohr Yashar), the Creator is bestowing. The Reflected Light (Ohr Hozer) is our response.

        I’ve heard the term ‘love’ used, what is that love made of, and how is it expressed or shown to us?

        Love is the will to give all the best, with no calculations.

        Also, what kinds of actions or inner work would be considered ‘receiving in order to bestow’?

        Kinds that we don’t have in us yet, and can’t imagine. Whatever we imagine, that’s not it.

          I won’t beat myself up in trying to receive in order to bestow then….at least not right now 🙂

      What is the difference between the reflected light of Ohr Chassidim and Ohr Hazer?
      What is the difference between the direct light Ohr Yasher and Ohr Hochma?

        Hi Eliyah,

        Generally, Ohr Hozer (Reflected Light) is Light of Hassidim. And Ohr Yashar (Direct Light) is Hochma.

      How can we know where we are in the progress of the 125 steps or in the building of our mesach?

        Hi Brendan, when we get a bit closer to those states we can discuss it. The 125 degrees are clear to the person as he knows his in the first grade, second, third. The preparation states are much less clear, and one has to keep going even though he doesn’t know.

      According to The study of the Ten Sefirot, Item 155, we receive an abundance of “sanctity and purity.” What are sanctity and purity in Kabbalah?

        Purity is that the Will to Receive for oneself will not be used, and Sanctity is that it will then be used for the sake of the Creator.
