ParticipantHello Gianni, during SMWF some questions have arisen but I couldn’t react to ask:
1. About the 600k souls: is the correction ment only for those souls? And every of them is connected to other souls for whose correction he is responsible for? Is this correct?
2. And about spiritual roots: I heard you saing “we have different spiritual roots” – how is this ment? Which spiritual roots exist? How can they be recognized? Can one soul be connected to a “wrong” spiritual root, to which it doesn’t belong? And if this is possible how can one get disconnected of the wrong and connected to the “right” root? What does it take?
Thank you!

Moderator600,000 is the intensity of the correct connection between us all. It’s not a number of physical bodies involved.
We each have our root of the soul and it is where we are attached to. When we make our unique corrections, which are all related to connection, we reach our root. And we see we don’t desire something else but exactly this.

ParticipantWhen the friends thank me I don’t know how to react because it’s not “me” they are thanking and I can’t take credit for what occurs through me. How do i relate to this in order to give joy to the friends at the same time as being a zero?

ModeratorI ask “how did the friend want me to respond” and that’s how I respond. That already means I’m as a zero.

Participant1- What to do when some kind of anger surfaces within you just because you see a Kabbalistic text?

ModeratorOvercome it and continue. Learn to associate less with feelings and more with the Goal.

ParticipantWhen I am with my ten, when my friend speaks, and I am listening. Should I listen with an intention that, the friend is speaking in order to connect us together for the sake of the Creator?

Gianni – KabU Instructor
ModeratorYes, we have to build all kinds of such channels of connection between us.

ParticipantGood Morning, I have been travelling, and reading articles…often I end up reading several articles because questions are spawned from the original article I was reading, so forgive me for being full of questions today.
A friend and I are reading Baal Ha Sulam’s #1 There is none else besides Him. In the article he says, “hat is, he lacks the strength to observe Torah and Mitzvot [commandments] even Lo Lishma [not for Her sake], for only by genuinely overcoming all the obstacles, above reason, can he observe the Torah and Mitzvot.
Yours truly, did not know what Lo Lishma and Lishma meant so I jumped onto article the Rabash Article 23 What Beginning in Lo Lishma Means in the Work.
Here is my two part question:
In the Rabash article one of the discernments in Lo Lishma is 2. One who studies in order to annoy. What is meant by annoy? Is this a translation limitation?
In the first article what is meant by “Not for her Sake” as opposed to “For her Sake?” Who/what is the “her?”

ModeratorHi Greg,
To annoy…there is such a state a person goes through where he studies in order to annoy his friends. There’s no need to open it up because one has to discover this inside, that he finds himself studying with that intention – even though he had hoped to have better intentions. It’s one of the many misdirections of the ego that one will discover while trying to locate the corrcet direction of Lishma.
Lishma means for the sake of the Creator. And Lo Lishma means he aims that way, but it turns out that the Creator has to grant him Lishma – because the person doesn’t have such a fuel, but only all sorts of other things can fuel him.

ParticipantCould we also say, for the sake of the Creator, could be, preparing a place for the Creator to dwell in?

ModeratorThere is the place for Him to fill, and there is the intention – why it should be filled.

ParticipantThat means there are two things, the place and an intention- the why it should be filled
What is a place?
Is the filling done at once or step by step? What does it mean to fill? - September 20, 2024 at 12:30 pm EDT #388391
Gianni – KabU Instructor
ModeratorThe place is the desire. The filling is done step-by-step because first one needs to show they can be entirely above the desire.
