      It seems unfair that g-d is infinite in happiness that he can bestow, why not he show his love by suffering like humans to bestow

      • #372165

        Also, it is explained in Midrash Rabbah (Beresheet_ Chapter 8), “The ministering angels said to the Creator, ‘‘What is man that you should remember him, and the son of man that you should care for him?’ Why do You need this trouble?’ There is an allegory about a king who had a tower filled with abundance but no guests. What pleasure does the king have? They said to Him, ‘Master of the world, do that which pleases You.’”

        This explains that the reason for man’s creation was that the Creator wanted to do good to them. This is why He created the creatures, and it is about this that they asked, If the purpose is to do good, why are the creatures suffering torments and sorrow and are not receiving the delight and pleasure that the Creator wishes to give them?

        The Zohar explains, “He who eats that which is not his is afraid to look at his face.” That is, in every free gift there is the flaw of shame.

        In order not to have the bread of shame, meaning that for the Creator’s gift to be complete and without any flaw, He has given us a place of work, which is called “the work of choice.” Through it, we can receive all our abundance from the Creator without any shame.

      If the creator is evil should we feel bad or happy (just a thought)

      • #372163

        The Creator does only good. “Evil” is what was created as our nature, to be opposite Him–to want to receive for ourselves.

      Could it be that the noahide laws are a way for judaism to keep gentiles happy without having to disseminate kabbalah to the world? 

      • #371898

        I’ve never heard of this intention. I’m not sure Kabbalists are concerned with Jews and Gentiles in that respect. Sure, there was a time where Kabbalah was concealed, and there were many ways the Kabbalists kept it from the eyes and ears of the public, but there were Jews who wanted to study Torah omitting the internality. They fought amongst themselves many times over this.

      I always tell people that everything comes from the Creator, none else besides him! but when it comes to my Boss, i get triggered with how rude he is and how he does not care about my reputation, i forget that everything comes from the creator during those moments.  I guess i need more spiritual connection …

        Hey Brad,

        We’re constantly being shown where we are still lacking the complete perception. It’s all a ploy to build a desire that will conquer all other desires!

      Is it better to follow our emotion or thinking?

      • #371836

        We’re feeling beings. Our emotion is a product of our desire. Our thoughts are a product of our emotions, even if we don’t feel it to be this way. Therefore, our thoughts and desires are products of the Will to Receive, which is our essence. So, we can’t rely on either for spiritual advancement.
