      Dear Gianni,

      Restriction is obviously me not doing what I want to do, but is it also me doing what I don’t want to do?

      Thank you! ❤️

      Concerning the scrutiny of a discernment if it is of Kedusha or of Klipa in Shamati 58 is written:

      “(…) the scrutiny is in the reason. In Kedusha, there is reason, and in the Sitra Achra there is no reason, since another god is sterile and does not bear fruit.”

      I understood that the reason, meaning doubt and intention to receive for self, comes from Sitra Achra and is about to go above it choosing faith – then the state is pure, Kedusha – meaning choosing ‘no-reason’. So how can reason be in Kedusha? And do we actually aim the state of Sitra Achra being in faith that it is the state of Kedusha?

      Or does it mean that the reason in Kedusha is a real one and the reason in Sitra Achra is not real, so thats why it’s called ‘no reason’?

      (I can’t believe) I have to ask even what is reason!?

        Inside and outside you…Correct? “There is only HIM”

        • #460435

          Only. Except for a point, you, the one who responds. But after you respond, we have to say that He did that too. And that will be the truth.

        All the real reason is in spirituality. It’s as if we give up on reason and go into something unreasonable. Instead, one is typically in something so embarrassingly unreasonable, below reason or within beastly reason that there’s going to be great laughter about it later on. And leaving this is what he calls reason and thinks that he might – god forbid – depart from into something “unreasonable.” So, it’s a big question if one is even within reason yet, to have reason to go ‘above’, in the first place. Reason comes from the spiritual degree, the reason of the Torah it’s called. Then we have to go above reason. For now, we have to do something like it – to go against our will to receive, and so on, but we’re not already in reason nor above reason. I know we speak this way, in our aspiration, but it’s not precisely our state.

      Hi Gianni, several of us in our Ten would like to learn more about Ten Sefirot since we have been taking Seth’ class on
      “Introduction to The Study of the Ten Sefirot”. We know you have a class called the Blueprint of Creation, and in Arvut there is ongoing live class by Rav, there are probably a lot of other materials we can use as well. We would like to ask your guidance on how we should approach this together so we can make it meaningful but not overwhelming.

       

      thanks

        We always say study where your heart desires. But I think if you want to learn the whole system quickly and then open it up more deeply from there, the Blueprint of Creation course does that. But there’s immeasurably more depth of feeling in Rav’s lessons, and the understanding ultimately comes from the feeling, the Reforming Light working. I would always rather learn from Rav. I think the Light teaches and the Light in Rav’s lessons is something serious. Those lessons are likely to require more time though, like a minimum of 5-10x the time. In the end, you have to learn this stuff from a higher source. The question is whether, in the middle, you want the Blueprint of Creation course as an on-ramp.

        Aside from just the Light working, you want to sort of have these matters sit in your box, as a system. This way, you can orient yourself better toward, say, The Study of the Ten Sefirot, and so your demand for the Light may be stronger during the study.

      During gatherings with friends, when they are reading and speaking, I need to be consciously aware that each word they say or read is intentionally directed towards Unity. At the same time, they too are consciously aware that every word they speak is directed towards Unity.

      Likewise, when I speak or read, they are also consciously aware that I am directing each word towards the shared space of Unity.

      It is like a twofold awareness: I know what they are doing, and they know what I am doing. We all shared that common intention.

      Is this what we need to do? Doing this, I don’t longer force myself to feel my friends. It comes naturally when I do that.

        Yes, we connect through Equivalence of Form.

        Dear Kimadigital7,

        Thank you for the light that comes with your words tonight. Across all space/time I can feel you also. You brought me the light, and a smile, when you mentioned the word “intention.” I believe you have found the key.

        Hi Gianni, hope you don’t mind my comment. Hope you can feel the light I am sending to you.

      Hi Gianni

      thank you for the lesson on Clothing. is below understand correct? anything still missing?

      Clothing is like the form I take on before I truly have the Creator’s quality. Even though my inner desire is still egoistic, I act as if I already have the quality of bestowal in the way I relate to my Ten. This is called “putting on clothing” , which is an external form that covers my true nature? Through this clothing/form, the Light will recognize the likeness of the Creator’s quality and begin to influence and correct me? As I rise on the rungs, I must constantly renew these clothing, adopting higher forms of clothing, so that the Light can continue to match and correct me until my inner quality becomes equivalent to the Creator?

      if I attempt to answer myself own question during the class about clothing and screen, screen is like the result of clothing and light working o me?

      last but not least:  the clothing, the form I am taking, is that initiated by me? what’s the creator’s role in this clothing process?

      thanks

        We get an invitation to realize the Reshimo, an awakening from a higher degree, through the society, the friends, the teacher. It’s preset — the degree standing before me — it just depends how I receive these awakenings, and thus how soon I’ll reach this upper degree. I clothe into the ten, and that’s how I realize it. That’s practically all there is to it.

      When you have to choose between annulling before the friends , or a higher aspect of the system, how do you choose wisely?

      • #459120

        If it’s a system, the lungs can’t override the brain, however united in agreement the lungs might be. They have to nullify to the brain.
