      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.

      How can we unite our yesod and malchuth as they are taught united in kabbalah?

        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.

      Hi. In the ascent of the souls back to the Creator, what is the process that the creature has to go through according to the four phases of direct light?

      Thank you

      Adelina.

        Adelina,
        The four phases of direct light are the template that all of reality is built from.  After these four phases there are many more processes and operations that we will learn about, the building of the partzufim, the worlds and then the souls.
        At the end of all of that cascading from above to below begins the procession from below to above, starting with the formation of matter (everything until now happened in the spiritual worlds until matter was formed at the end of the cascading).  Then matter develops according to what we can already measure in normal science from the inanimate degree which took billions of years to the vegetative degree, to the animate degree and finally to the speaking/human degree.  And then from within the speaking degree, within the “humans” there is the development of our inanimate desires, our vegetative desires, our animate desires and finally our spiritual desires.  When that initial point of the spiritual desire awakens enough, we find the wisdom of kabbalah.
        From there, after a preparation period owe ascend up the spiritual degrees according to the very same steps that the light took on its descent.

          So, after the preparation period we ascend first with phase 1,2,3,4 of direct light, the first restriction and so on?
