Hi Ali,

This is a good time to try and notice that we are not in control of our thoughts/desires/emotions. Certainly each moment is given to us with a very precise and calculated opportunity from above. We don’t understand why we receive each state this way or the other–but eventually we will want to exit this calculation of feels good/feels bad or bitter/sweet to calculations that someone who craves spirituality (bestowal) over reception which are calculations of truth/falsehood.

According to our nature, we will always want to feel good, we will always want to control our states or feel that we are in control. Part of spiritual development is this gradual transition to accepting that there is only one governing force in reality. The more we can use each moment to realize it the way we best understand, clinging to the environment and not wanting to leave its influence of the importance of the goal over us–the closer we are to behaving correctly within every given state.

Best of luck,n

Chris

Hey mrc,

As we’ve discussed before regarding “Satan” — this is just another form of the will to receive takes in a person, the force that reigns and wants only in order to receive.

Hey mrc,

What’s important always is only the desire. The mind will help you aim the desire, find the right desire, dissect the current desire etc., it’s a tool but in and of itself is not spiritual. Also, this “observing point” we have where we are able to ask “what” am I feeling–the mind can take you there which is a key element in discerning our states.

Thanks!

Hey mrc,

There’s not “better” or “worse”, but you could say that since the Creator created the worlds and all of creation in order to benefit the creatures, then this is the most important.

Hey Michael,

You can say it’s similar….but a person doesn’t necessarily actually have to experience them directly in this incarnation. We don’t know what we’ve been through and experienced–above space and time. Also, it doesn’t mean you want to be a Gates or a Bezos and if you don’t reach those levels then you’re point in the heart won’t awaken. Everyone is different. But in general, you could say a person needs to “taste” a little bit of each level in order to know.

Thanks!

Hey Brad,

Anytime you come across a “law” in Kabbalah, it’s referring to spirituality only–how a person is able to “chain” themselves to spirituality in order not to be disconnected. Meaning, the thought of creation contains a program which its single purpose is to bring the created being into complete adhesion with its Maker through correction. The Kabbalists detail how this system works and what a person needs to do in order to not “waste time” making mistakes, deviating from that path of correction towards the end goal.
