General Question :
Could you explain why it is ? disrespectful to spell the name of God/creator in text ??
Ie Kabu speaks about HaVaYa rather than Yod- He- @- He?
is it also incorrect to speak Gods/creators name ?Also : Could you give a definition of Behina Daleth for the glossary ?
I couldn’t find it ?
Its good to have all the terms to review if Hebrew is new to you .
Thank you- September 5, 2023 at 8:16 pm EDT #330290Gianni – KabU InstructorModerator
It’s a relic of the fact that the inner spiritual work, when it became necessary to conceal the true wisdom, was turned into whatever signs could be found in our world. This particular tradition follows from the rule that I “do not name what I do not attain.” If I have not attained the Creator in a way that I attain specifically that Name, then I shouldn’t use the name. So, there are such formalities – not for the Creator’s sake, He doesn’t mind; but rather for my sake, as a reminder that I should not be silly, using different names for an Upper Force that I myself did not attain, but which I heard from Kabbalists, who wrote those names because the forms of the Kelim in which they revealed the Upper Light were in the forms of such letters that spell those names.
Malchut is Hebrew for Kingdom, or reign, as in “I shall rule” [instead of the Creator]

So we are agreeing, by entering phase 4 , that we will become more like the creator by not receiving …ever again.
That is, we relinquish our intrinsic desire for fulfilment in the material world ,as we have come to understand that only being like the creator will truly fulfill us spiritually & permanently?
So presumably we can only bestow if there are only 2 forces in the universe ?- September 5, 2023 at 8:10 pm EDT #330289Gianni – KabU InstructorModerator
We’re studying the way the degrees cascade from Above downwards, in order to draw the Reforming Light. We can’t talk about us here because there’s n “us” in this picture yet.
Phase 4 is not deciding not to receive, initially. In fact, she is about to receive, in order to complete the act that was started in Phase 3, where it received Hochma in part and Hassididim in part. Now, in Phase 4, she will receive all the Hochma – the Light of the Purpose of Creation.
Here’s where you spoke about our world. But that’s also not the case. We don’t decide to relinquish our desires. We simply work on making a certain desire within us more important: the Point in the Heart. We need to nourish it all the time, as much as possible. That’s all. That will be enough.
The truth is, our other desires are not even considered receiving. Our pleasures are so tiny, they’re not taken into consideration. So, I don’t have a problem with them. I have a problem that my Point in the Heart is so tiny that it’s even smaller than all my other desires.
Thus, all our work is in growing this spiritual desire. That’s why I need the teacher, the books, the group of others studying with me…

How is shame related to envy? As to me the direct emotion of seeing one is completly oppossite to bestowing would be envy, and then shame… (even of having felt envious of “the good host”).

We never feel spiritual shame in our world but spend energy almost every minute avoiding ever feeling it. So, we can’t compare our idea of shame to spiritual shame. Shame and envy in our world, though, are both related to our sense of self, our feeling of being an isolated creation, independent of others. This feeling comes from the shattering of the collective soul. It’s an imagination, but an imagination that we can use correctly. Shame, for example, is a sensation that can keep us from acting out as our ego might like, and disturbing others. Later, I will be able to form proper intentions not to disturb others because we are all one soul and if I disturb others I harm myself. However, it’s still good to not disturb others, even to preserve my pride. Envy can also be used correctly. I need to build up the others who are, like me, on the spiritual path and envy their progress. As the Kabbalists write, “envy, lust and honor bring a person out of this world.” That is – only by these does one come out of this world to the spiritual world.

hello Gianni
will it be right to say that malchut feels shame and restrict itself because he feels that he has nothing to give to the host and the restriction helps him to contemplate about the pleasure he wants to receive and how much of those pleasure he will be able to receive in order to please the host?

You can say so.

<p style=”text-align: left;”>U feel the shame and intently u will be empty.it s not like the phase 2?</p>

Hi Ali,
Phase 2 is very different in quality, but most importantly it is without the realization of the quality that he is in compared to the quality that the Upper Force is in. It is also without the realization that the Upper Force loves me, thinks only of me, and that I can in no way be that way, as it created me the opposite of that, where I think only about myself and receiving maximally.
