Preparation Question: Our entire work in Kabbalah is only to attract the light that reforms. By this we receive everything we need for our advancement. Furthermore, I’m told that if I will help the others, I will advance myself even more towards spirituality. How does this work? What does it mean to help the others, those with the point in the heart, on the spiritual path?

It means to receive in order in order to bestow, to assist our friends within the 10, or our spouse to receive the light that reforms. By helping others, we help ourself to grow, develop, to receive the light that reforms.

by helping others meaning a group of 10 or a spouse who also is a kabbalist like myself the idea of attaining the light in groups is to grow and bestow on each other to pray as a group and to bounce off each other feelings  so that together we grow and attain the light.

It means receiving in order to give to others – and by doing so we are then allowing them to receive in order to give – this also highlights the interconnection between us all

It means to see their desires as my own, and connect with them above my ego.

it means to put o your friends desire above yours and show up for the others even if you don’t feel it

I mean this just makes good sense to me.  We are here to learn to change the desire to receive for the self alone into the desire to receive for the sake of sharing.   So we are to become less selfish and more altruistic, to become like the Creator.   So I focus on helping the other…it takes my focus off of myself…and the beauty is i advance as a result.
