At 19:30 when you’re talking about the screen. Do I feel this screen for instance when I’m writing or doing something? sometimes it feels like the light approves or wants that action, and the light goes in to what I’m doing, and I feel no diminishing. Then sometimes I can feel like it’s not correct, and i fight it a little, and I know it’s not it’s will? I lose a little bit in my heart that. Does this make sense

Hi Daniel,
I cannot comment on your personal feelings.
The screen is essentially the intention that we place over the desire. Check out the Guest & Host analogy in Chapter 3 of Attaining the Worlds Beyond for more details.

Hi, Thanks so much for all the effort put into teaching this wisdom.
My question is:
How can I fine tune my awareness at the point of correction? I am very aware of the path of pain and sometimes I am blinded to the path of light. The awakening lessons seem hard sometimes. How can I stay awake and attuned to the path of light? Is it only through giving to others? Fake it to make it … I think my desire to bestow is sometimes from the ego…

Hi Paula,
Of course our desire to bestow is from our ego. This is because our nature is 100% egoistic. So naturally it’s impossible for us to have a true desire to bestow. And that is okay. No one is demanding of us to be saints, no one is demanding of us to have superhuman strength and to conquer our ego. Nope. All that we need to do, and all that we’re capable of doing actually, is just to try. That’s it. We just need to try to be above the ego. We don’t need to succeed, we just need to try. Such efforts are enough to extract the reforming light and it’s the light that ultimately makes all the corrections on us. Our work is only to extract the light, especially during the Kabbalistic studies, and it does all the rest.

My questions are already answered in the earlier posts, about the numbers 600.000 and 613. It tickles the brain that the numbers can be so precise, and then when you read about their qualitative meanings, instead of quantative meaning, one starts to understand.

Hello,
So, if a person corrects one desire, that desire will be corrected in all other points of a heart and reconnects them, right?
1. So basically, max. 613 people can reconnect the whole Soul? Let’s say one person corrects one desire, which is then corrected in all other hearts, so 613 people would correct all?
2. And when one desire is corrected, shouldn’t that be evident in the world somehow?
3. Are there any desires corrected yet?
Thank you in advance!

Hi Zorica,
We learn that all of humanity is part of one single system, like cells within a single body. So naturally what one experiences influences EVERYONE else. And if I reach a correction, this same correction influences everyone. But I don’t actually correct the other person, rather I correct MY PART that is found within everyone.
It’s like a hologram where the big image is made up of identical smaller copies of that image. So if there is a flaw in one of the smaller images, that same flaw is found in every piece. And if you correct that flaw in the small piece, it’s reflected in the whole image.
So if I correct myself, I correct my part of this general picture. That is called reaching one’s individual final correction. But each one will still need to correct their part of the general picture. And when everyone corrects their part, then we reach the final correction of the whole world.

With new lessons and materials, a more complex question is forming in my mind.
Is our reality like a procedurally generated game? As time in our world progresses we are moving to more and more complex connections
with each other. All parameters change. For example, there are more people with greater corporeal desires. More technology to connect us or destroy everything, radio waves, atom bombs, internet of things, AI, brain-to-brain interface, and then we become a hive mind.
The path of suffering will push technology to transhumanism realms. We can only finish the game earlier and exit the reincarnation cycle.Is my thinking correct?

Hi Łukasz,
Yes, you can say that. This is why Kabbalists call our corporeal world “the imaginary world”. Since once we correct ourselves, relative to that corrected state this life would appear as nothing more than a dream or a game. But keep in mind that until we correct ourselves, this game is very much so real and will continue to be our reality until we fully correct ourselves.

(1) Why in the initial stage, was there a separation? Why the CREATOR and CREATURE got separated? It is mentioned that it was intentional but what was the reason behind it?
(2) Also, why are we talking only about Human beings here. Animals, plants, mountains, rivers, land, sea is also created. Why don’t we talk about other parts of creation?

Hi Prashant,
1. We were indeed created in the state of perfection (Baal HaSulam describes this in the article Introduction to the book of Zohar https://kabbalahmedia.info/sources/ALlyoveA), but this was an unconscious state, like a baby in its mother’s womb. So we necessarily had to come to the complete opposite state, to lose that state of perfection, in order to once again reach it, but this time consciously.
And the fact that we had to lose this state is not something bad, but it’s a necessary part of our development. It’s just like with kids. We don’t just give them a completed jigsaw puzzle. On the contrary we take it and break it down into many pieces. Then in the process of them putting it together, they grow and develop. Same with us, this process of losing that state is a necessary part of our further growth and development.
This process also adds to us a certain level of freedom, without which, we would be no different than machines, or robots, that were programmed to act a certain way and they just carry out this inner script. Instead, we were programmed one way, and we rise above this inner programming, become independent of it, and then develop our own desire to advance towards this goal.

2. Other parts of creation are there to support the human level of creation. And as we correct and elevate the human level, the other parts rise together with it.
