Ask anything about week 4 lesson and materials and get an answer from a senior Kabbalah instructor.

We know that Keter is divided into two parts, which include Arich Anpin and Arika Kaddisha! What is higher than the Atika Kaddisha stage?

[Seth – KabU Instructor]

Asher,
You can go to http://www.kabbalahmedia.info and find all of Talmud Eser Sefirot.
There you can find the entire structure of the upper worlds.
We will only confuse ourselves and everyone else here to discuss things that have zero connection to the work at hand.

Hello, I find it difficult but very interesting and somewhat understand the process.

I still fo not understand the “restrictions” Tony talks about “the first restriction” how many “restrictions are there?

Thank you,

[Seth – KabU Instructor]

Esmeralda,
In the process from Ein Sof (without end) through the creation of the created being, there are two restrictions.
The first one takes place after the 4 phases of direct light.
We learned that the thought of creation is to create a creature and fill it with good.
From that thought extends the 4 phases of direct light until we arrive at Malchut of Ein Sof, that means we arrive at an endless vessel that can receive all of the light of the Creator.
However there is a problem.  The Creator of course is 100% a bestowing force, but Malchut is now 100% a receiving force and because of this, their natures are 100% opposite from one another, in spirituality, distance is measured by the difference between the qualities.  So these qualities are as far as east is from west.
Malchut wants to be close to the Creator, but is endlessly far, so she (we call her she, but there is no created being yet), says, I can’t bestow, because I don’t have anything of my own to bestow, BUT, I can stop myself from receiving and at least in that I won’t be 100% opposite in form from the Creator.
That stopping of receiving is called Tzimtzum Aleph (1).

1. Who is matchut in the creation is he in heaven with God
2. I believed in Adam rishion as Creator.
3. Can you narrate this two for me.

[Seth – KabU Instructor]

Hi Joshua,
Let’s leave our beliefs on the side for now.
We are studying a science.  Let’s try to understand what the kabbalists are explaining to us, if we are ready for that.
The Creator created the heaven = Bina and earth = Malchut

Adam HaRishon that we are going to study now  is a spiritual system of the collective soul where the Creator will dwell.

Hello Set,

Why did the creator create a creature in the first place? Was he bored? What was his desire? Did he want to know himself?

[Seth – KabU Instructor]

Maika,
Wow, this is a fun question!
We exist in a process called 6000 years (of course this is not talking about calendar years, it is a qualitative measurement).  In that system, we can attain the light that emanated from the Creator.  However we do not attain the essence of the Creator at all.
We attain and perceive what is emanated, formed and created from the light that cascades from His essence.
And those kabbalists who reached those upper degrees wrote to us that the thought of creation is to create a creature and fill it with delight/fulfillment.
In order to do that the Creator had to create a vessel, a lack that could hold all of His abundance, this thought alone set into motion everything that has cascaded since.  Our life and our work is to correct this vessel to be able to hold His abundance.

“I have become Malkhut.” How will I create a universe in six or seven days?

[Seth – KabU Instructor]

Bill,
Now you need to reach the busha, the spiritual shame which causes the first retriction, then the building of the partzufim, the worlds and souls and then you’ll almost be ready!

I’ve been watching other lessons about the transmission of electromagnetic energy as light. I wont go into the details of what I have partially received there,… but I see parallels with the current explanation of the four phases of spiritual light transmission and reception. In the received sense,  bestowal=transmission; reception=reception like a radio receiving a broadcast.. Am I oveer-iagining or should I just compartmentalize and learn to love and apply what’s in each “silo”?

[Seth – KabU Instructor]

Bill,
We are studying a method here.  You will find details that you recognize in every natural science and you are free to study wherever your heart desires.
These initial semesters are to give a person a foundation in the wisdom of kabbalah.  Similar to if you are going to be a heart surgeon or a brain surgeon.  At some point in your study after familiarizing yourself with the body as a whole, if you want to be an expert, you will have to choose where you will put your focus.  If you focus on the brain, you will not learn about the heart, you will learn things that are connected, but as you progress in your studies, you’ll decide if this path is suitable for you and then you’ll decide if you will become an expert, to attain the root of your soul and godliness that fills it.
