How does it look like? In the video there was an example about the dinner analogy between the host and the guest.
does this take place in all actions between 2 people ( giver and receiver ) ?
also, is it true to say the the creator is a receiver and depends on us to give in order to exist?
Thank youTamar
Tamar,
At every moment of our lives we are in this example. We don’t feel that life is sustained at every. moment by the Creator. Every breath, every sip of water every heart beat, do we feel the Giver?
We can say that the Creator desires to fill the creature with pleasure.
Imagine that a mother makes a meal for her children.
If the children refuse to eat, maybe the child doesn’t feel well and the mom is upset about it.
But when the child will finally accept the food and eat, the mother feels pleasure.
So the act is not about physically receiving or giving the food, but the act is the internal movement.

Does the light have the sefirots K – H – B – ZA – M as the desire to receive ?
Does the light tranform itself to satisfy the desire to receive ?
Amani,
The light that emanates from the Creator is called the light of hochma. It is the light of pleasure and fulfillement.
It cannot be felt in material vessels.
It can only be felt in “spiritual” vessels.
The light emanates out of the Creator and the kabbalists describe the cascading of the light in four phases plus the root. Keter, Hochma, Bina, ZA and Malchut.
The vessel performs several operations, at first she can’t be like the light since she has not light to give, but she can stop receiving. If she stops receiving, then at least she is not opposite from the light.
Then she calculates that she will receive but only as much as she can receive in order to give pleasure to the Creator.
By this the light works on the vessel and slowly transforms it into a vessel that can receive spiritual pleasure.

Emiwodew,
On the one hand we are malchut and we have to connect to our upper 9.
On the other hand, all of the sefirot are in us.
Just as a baby has arms and legs but doesn’t use them yet, he needs to grow until he can use them, it is the same for us. Our spiritual organs stand waiting only for us to be ready for them.
As much as we can convince ourselves that love of the others is more important than love of self then we start to discover what is outside of us and then we begin to discover all of these things.
