I’m having a little problem with the Reshimot. Is the hitlabshut portion determined by a Zivug de Hakaa at the Peh, and what the Toch receives inside in order to bestow? Then, is the Aviut determined by the memory of the shame and the Bitush of the Inner and Surrounding lights at the Tabur?
Is she expelling just the amount associated with the Aviut?
From below upward, or in certain stages of the overall descent from above downward, the Reshimot of the Partzuf – the Aviut & Hitlabshut – determine what can be done in relation to the Light. Assuming we want to bestow, using the Reshimot in the Partzuf, accordingly, they can make a Zivug with the Upper Light on their Reshimot, and accordingly, receive the Light. From Above down, the Reshimot that I have are a result of the cascading of the degrees. After there was a certain zivug on a certain Reshimo, the result was another state with another set of Reshimot, something less than what was prior.
Reshimo of clothing (hitlabshut) is what I had in a previous state. I can work with it now — as something that I had before (the best I can say it). Reshimo of coarseness (aviut) is what I have now.
I’m curious, you mentioned in the preparation that many people give up at this point because of the certain part of the soul that this relates to. Can you elaborate on that?
Hi Ben,
If you watch Yo-Yo Ma play or take a few lines from Hemingway or a sketch by Picasso, it appears as something I could almost do myself. The greater the expertise of the performer, the more the performance seems as easy and natural as grass growing. Now, hand me the cello, pencil or paintbrush to try. When my senses, instincts, and understanding enter, the problems begin. Until now, we’ve spoken of the actions of the Creator, from Above. We can imagine them, imagine ourselves in these stages. They’re even beautiful to go into as into a movie or musical performance that whisks us far away from our ordinary life, and we live vicariously through this drama. But in reality, it’s very far from our a state. And what we’re entering now, is much closer, but in being closer evokes the messiness and shattering of our state. In short, since it’s closer to realization by me, rather than actions the Creator does in some world of Eyn Sof, for some, it’s too close to actual correction and realization of the purpose of Creation. After all, the ego doesn’t want that.
This is massive, Gianni. Thank you for explaining this so well. Hope I can retain a portion of what you have given us.
I do not have any questions at this point, just a small observation. I had read in one of the previous lectures (not sure where exactly) that all the worlds are copies of each other. Your illustration shows the structure of AK to be different than Atzilut. I am assuming that the worlds of Beria, Yetzira and Assiya are similar to Atzilut. Is that correct?
Can’t wait to dig in the rest.
It’s true, the worlds all follow the same format, but how that unfolds, and to be able to see that the format is the same, one needs very sophisticated eyes spiritually. For example, no scientist in our world is sophisticated enough to, for example, see that there is a lion, and then a lion flower, and something on the still level of lion qualities, and perhaps something on the human level, let alone something on the spiritual level. Later it will be very simple and clear, but for now, it’s beyond us.
I don’t understand a single word you said, all I could feel was some sort of fractal changing and adjusting and then changing again one within the other. And problems breathing as if all of this is literally taking my breath away. Ether way, what a profound, word-less experience. Let’s see how lost I get with the next one!
