Hi David,

Yes, we have all felt this desperation of the situation around us, but if you’re like me, it’s so uncomfortable to bear, you’re quick to find some soothing distraction.

The external world is full of suffering and tragedy, but nature considers the advancement of all of creation as a whole. When we wake up and start asking and looking around trying to find how to make it better, we’re all doing that from our own personal perspective and it seems very daunting. However, perspective is only where we start the process and the process will lead us out of ourselves and into all of creation. This transition from “me” to “we” is where all the corrections happen. Making these inner corrections are what will cause the external world to heal as well.

We continue the path and pave the way for the rest of the world to follow.

Best of luck,

Chris

Hi mrc,

We are the only thing that changes, what’s constant is the Creator’s attitude to us. When we change, we see a different world, just like Baal HaSulam writes, “we were as dreamers.”

Hi mrc,

There is a system and it is interdependent. It cannot be that the system functions while one integral part neglects its role. It’s also true that nature accounts for this stage where we don’t know the rules of the system and how to behave in it. We will nonetheless have to undergo correction.

Hey David,

No problem “reading ahead” just don’t try to get into it like a scientist. Just let it kind of “pass through” if you know what I mean. No reason to try and grasp anything intellectually.

Thanks!

Chris
