Hi,

In the first lesson talk about the 5 spiritual worlds or 125 steps from the physical world to the higher world. my questions is what are the steps consists of and how to break the barrier.

In addition, is Mitzvah, have the same definition for non Jews.

Thanks.

[Albert – KabU Instructor]

Hi Josue,

125 steps represents the difference between us and the Creator. The Creator is a desire to bestow and we are the desire to receive. Adapting our desire to receive to work in order to bestow takes 125 steps. So to the extent that we correct our nature, make it similar to the Creator’s nature, to that extent we’re “climbing” this ladder.

In other words, ascending or descending this ladder is not a physical action, but rather depends on how much we’re similar to the Creator’s quality of bestowal (ascending) or less similar to it and more egoistic (descending).

All of this operates according to the law of equivalence of form. Check out this blog post from Rav Laitman for more details: https://laitman.com/2013/04/everything-is-attained-by-the-equivalence-of-form/

Regarding Mitzvot, there are 613 desires that we need to correct. Corresponding to each desire, there is a mitzvah (commandment). These are the INTERNAL processes by which we correct that specific desire. In other words, Kabbalists don’t look at the 613 mitzvot as physical actions to be performed by our hands and feet, but rather as allegories to the internal process of correcting our desires.

From the readings in Week One of Course One, please further elucidate:

Mitzvah, particularly as a requirement.

Also, the frequent mention of the “Principle of Reward and Punishment” which I don’t think is the same as good and bad?

Thank you.

2. Regarding reward and punishment, in the context of upper providence, when providence is revealed to a person in the form of reward and punishment, it’s like a direct correlation: when we do good, we get rewarded, when we do bad, we get punished.

Although reward and punishment is a very high spiritual degree, it’s still an incomplete state. There is an even higher level where providence is revealed as completely good, regardless of our actions. It’s like a mother that loves her child no matter how the child acts.

Hello everyone. Very simple explanation.  I appreciate for this course.  I think it will be more difficult to learn tree of life 🤔.  And book of Zoar.
