      If we obtain pleasure for ourselves is it a decline rather than an ascent?

        Correct. By this we distance ourselves from the purpose of creation.

          So it is better to not receive than to receive for ourselves, I thought Kabbalah is against fasting and restraining ourselves, ascetic practices?

        Hey mrc,

        The body is just a “clothing”. We can fill this body with pleasures but this has no affect on the spiritual.

        This body is temporary and the soul is eternal. We know how this world works–birth>death–it’s a cycle of the changes happening in the upper world–in the spiritual. Doing good is considered doing good to promote the purpose of creation, of correction.

        Thanks!

        We can’t speak from the perspective of the Creator, we can only interpret what our vessels perceive and we perceive His good, His bestowal and nothing beyond that. We come to know Him through, “by Your actions we know You.”

          Is the physical world the body of G-od?

      Should I focus on praying to others as praying is different from doing good, whereas doing good to self first?

        “Doing good” is wanting good for others. Kabbalah doesn’t speak about actions in this world. However, in order to reach the ability to have the right intention, we first have to bring others (in the ten) closer to us, and this is what shapes us and forms us to be bestowers.
