Viewing reality from the perspective of the Creator, for me, is understanding there is a larger purpose to the whole of Creation than my egoistic desires. This includes how I view other people, or circumstances that May not immediately be what my ego wishes them to be. Similar to the parent analogy, a child may not like or be prepared to appreciate the lessons they are being taught, but the parent has the best intentions and the ability to see the bigger picture and long term benefit the child will ultimately receive. The child must first go through the process, and through the experience see the purpose through hind sight.

The parent/child analogy works well here. The Creator is a good parent and we are His children. Being the best possible parent, He only wants the very best for us. We, being children, don’t always understand His intention for us. As a result, we suffer. But that suffering is entirely due to our own misconceptions, not His parenting. As we grow and learn, we come to understand and appreciate all that He does for us and, as a result, we are truly happy. Naturally, as a loving father, the Creator is also happy when His children are happy. And He is especially joyful when His children understand WHY they are happy and express gratitude for all the Creator does for them.

To stop being guided by just our egoistic desires. To view the whole picture and accept the change even in order to bestow to others

To see reality from the point of one system working in harmony for the equal benefit of each part

It means you’ve shifted from a mindset of reception to bestowal.

I think that all of our misconceptions start from the way we view our Creator. Just as Rav Laitman said in his video, we view our parents in the same way. When something restricts me, my ego and my corporeal nature want me to rebel but I have a choice of how to view this restriction. If  I have completely understood and believe/trust that The Creator is only good and that He only bestows good, then I know it’s my reality that is making me see the opposite. My first thought is to reflect inward. I must enquire of myself why am I feeling, thinking, or seeing my current situation as hurtful or difficult. If I quickly realize my need to trasform my thinking it’s a blessing from above, but if I can’t see anything then my next prayer is to ask for the Creator’s help. Lastly, I have to have “faith above reason” to know that it is my misconception of reality to blame and not the fault of the Creator. I must tell myself it is for my benefit and I must stay focused on the fact that all will work out in the end. This is what it means to me… now I pray for the Creator to give me strength to follow this in my life!
