Is it wrong to be in joy that the shattering happened ?
Should I pray to the Creator for clarity (?) Because I do not want to relate the separation of the Shechina to myself or fool myself.
Thanks, Gianni

I have a few questions.  First lets say a person experiences pain or suffering but this time recognizes that it is because he is far from The Creator and that he is experiencing it purely from his will to receive for himself.  The next  thing to do would be to pray to The Creator? also I have read we make a demand but I have also read we ask for The Creators help in this endeavor . What exactly does that look like ? in the past lets say the person has usually prayed asking for the help of The Creator but the true motive behind the prayer was that The Creator would remove pain and suffering from him, how is he to learn to pray now ?
My other question would be is the sitra achra basically all the forces from the side of the will to receive for oneself ? and obviously these are opposite forces from the forces of the will to bestow? Â am I getting that right?
Thank you so much for taking the time to answer these questions.
We should always ask the Creator – for each and everything. And we should strive to find something relevant to ask for. Everything else is to arrive at asking. Demanding, asking, requesting – they’re all the same except it depends on the intensity. But even with little intensity and even inauthentically, we should ask. Even to remove the suffering, it is better to ask than not refer to the Creator or sit crying. Cry to Him. Then, at least, you’ll receive a correction to your request and then you’ll ask better next time (in the next moment). Then, one asks to be above the desire to receive, that I will be distinct from it, above it in adhesion with the Creator.
Yes, the Sitra Achra is that which pulls me to all the actions except for bestowal.
Why does it feel sometimes the lessons are just for me? Did I just disclose an inner state with that question, in an unhelpful or even deleterious way?
Is it ok to make a statement about your opinion about things? For instance my friend posted something and it gave rise to thoughts that led me to post:
“Seems as though every word in kabbalah has 10,000 words behind it and maybe each of those words have infinity behind them.”
Is this proper? Is this an inner sensation or an idea?
I’m curious about spiritual growth and whether it’s possible beyond Kabbalah’s teachings. Although Kabbalah is often seen as the sole path to spiritual enlightenment, I’ve noticed others, unfamiliar with Kabbalah, displaying signs of spiritual progress. For instance, before I explored Kabbalah, I felt a deep connection to the idea that we are all part of a single soul. Moreover, I’ve seen people reflect spiritual truths that align with Kabbalah’s insights, suggesting that spiritual advancement isn’t exclusive to any one doctrine. Considering the majority who don’t study Kabbalah, can they too experience spiritual growth? It seems restrictive to claim Kabbalah as the only way, especially when the essence of creation seems to naturally guide individuals towards enlightenment, a process some refer to as the path of suffering. How does this view integrate with Kabbalah’s teachings?
It is said, ‘there are many ways to the place’. But nothing can be seen accurately on the outside. I have to check myself if a method is true.
Thank you for your response. To clarify, my inquiry isn’t driven by a desire to find inconsistencies or to approach this from a strictly legalistic angle. It stems from a personal connection—specifically, regarding my father, who passed away without having explored the Wisdom of Kabbalah. This extends to all the individuals in my life and around the world who have not pursued this path of knowledge. My hope is that they have still achieved some form of spiritual growth in their lives.
Everyone is advancing toward the purpose of Creation, and everyone is eternal, no one is new here. Until we complete our correction through getting to know the laws of nature and the Upper Laws of the spiritual worlds, we reincarnate. A moment after one dies, he continues, until he completes all the degrees, intentionally, consciously, through free choice every step of the way – up to the root of his soul.
There’s no answer because we don’t have the vessels to understand the answer. So, whatever will be said will necessarily be misunderstood, which is worse than no answer. It’s not at all what people imagine, so it’s best to focus on this life, and even on this moment and try to attain everything there is. The answer to your question is attained when we become Kabbalists.
