      As I was  reading the TES lectures , I wondered about what the  term „substance“ means.

      I understand,  there is Existence out of absence refering to the will to receive , which is our substance. Because there is no wish to receive in the creator. Since the creator is everything, and we are opposite to him in our nature, then is our very substance that of being a lack, a void, (like a mini black hole)?

        Yes. One which needs filling and can only really get it through the wisdom of Reception (Kabbalah).

      Sometimes we have the strength to do the work, and sometimes we don’t. Do we really need to do? How do we interpret the doing part?

      And if this is the work of the Creator, what should we look for in the Creator at every moment in order to remain aligned with His plans? Because I feel like we don’t truly need to do, but rather to align to aim at  what the Creator is doing. And we need to cultivate the need for the realization of what the Creator is doing.

        First we need to agree. And to identify all the places we don’t agree. A Kabbalist is always in great joy because he limits himself to wanting and being happy with exactly what the Creator has given. And even if nothing changes on the outside, the inner filling is less and less, with regard to one’s spiritual path. That’s so that one would actually – finally – come to the spiritual Restriction.

        It’s happening to us anyway, soon we’ll see that the whole world feels it. Might as well do the inner work to receive it correctly, and advance spiritually.

          Check what I wrote above. That’s already inner work if you’re doing it, and checking that you’re doing it. To agree with the Creator is impossible because what he wants to do with you is not something you already agree with and go toward on your own. Therefore it’s great inner work.

      How do I ask questions not like something I want to know but something that came through me to my friends?
      And also, do I need to feel that my friends are also doing the same?

      I got an impression. Is a vessel also a perception? A perception of knowing what the Creator is doing, agreeing with His plans and becoming a partner?

        If I’m really connected to my friends, thinking of them, their advancement, then my questions will be from them. Really you’re asking “how do I be the one at the leading-edge of the society, the most bestowing, the most nullified, the most adhered to the teacher.” He can ask from the center of the ten, the center of the society.

      Hi Gianni. I have been reading Shamati 50, and I am wondering are we walking the two paths consecutively  or can we be on both paths at the the same time? Can it be that internality moves us towards hastening time, whereas externality is exposing us to the typical challenges of the path of suffering, maybe even more forced than before we entered the path of truth? In that how should we relate to externality? Should we consider it irrelevant or relate to its impact as to  whether or not it is nearing or distancing us from spirituality?

      • #449549

        We walk the “path of the land” – somewhere between the path of pain and the path of Light. One needs to be very serious and supported to walk the path of Light for which I need to be in such prayer and longing from morning until night that it’s as if I’m already suffering, and so why does the Creator need to awaken me with sufferings? However, even when we fall to the path of suffering because we lack the support from the group to remain in the “suffering of love,” all these sufferings are later sweetened in a way that it’s as if the Creator always only did us good.

      What should we look for in the upcoming retreat? What is that one thing we should look for beyond our physical bodies? And how do we build that desire in a way that, without it, is not worth going to?

      • #449495

        I look for, in every state and situation, what is desired of me, from those who are outside of me. Not what I want, and not even what I would have liked to give, but what do they want to see from me now? This way, I study from the Creator my future states – through this powerful environment that allows me to, for once, put myself completely under the control of the Upper Light. But I would say that even if I’m not ready for all that, it’s worthwhile to come to the Retreat. Everyone will advance greatly.

      Hi Gianni

      how are ascends(125 ladders) and descends manifested? through our emotions? how do I even recognize if I am in an ascend or descend?

      I recall during one class I asked how do I know if I am receiving light of the creator(something like that), you said “You will know”… is above question similar to that? The fact that I am asking this question, possibility due to that I am not there yet, I have no clue of what ascends and descends are?

      thank you as always!

      • #449437

        Here, you know especially when you can do the work as if you’re in an ascent, though you don’t feel you’re in an ascent. That’s how you know you’re in an ascent.
