May i ask, when we want to acheive phase 4 (receiving as a giving to Creator), can we say Phase 4 is all about appreciation? or there are something other than appreciation that can help phase 4 manifested.
Hi Sarah,
If we are talking about Phases, Phases come from Above downward. We are many degrees after that, in a world below the Barrier to the Upper Worlds, an imaginary world, like a dream. In this dream there is no such thing as bestowal, and the truth is, there is also no reception. We always think we’ll receive but the moment we get close to any fulfillment, it slips right through our fingers, like turning on a light without a filament in the bulb and a short circuit occurs. Thus, from trying to receive, what we get instead is darkness. So, in our world there is no reception to even work with. There is no bestowal, of course, either. Because I don’t have a Kli (vessel) yet. You see, the Four Phases are talking about states when there was a Vessel. Now, there isn’t. As you’ll see in later episodes, the Vessel shatters. That’s our big problem now. So, we’re not near to such states whatsoever. We’re in some kind of post-nuclear bomb wasteland, spiritually speaking, where we need to turn to some higher force for help. The wisdom of Kabbalah puts us in contact with that Upper Force.
hello Gainni
will it be right to say that everything in this reality goes through the same process of four phases,even our thought and desire?. lets say i have a desire to eat pizza,will it be right to say that keter is the initiation of the desire into my awareness or is it hochma, or Bina at what point in the four phase of the direct light does the creature feel the light as a desire to be fulfilled?
Hi Anayo. No, you won’t find yourself in relation to the Sefirot. They aren’t in your tool kit whatsoever. Because where we are is in a state after everything Shattered. You don’t have Sefirot because Sefirot don’t exist by themselves at all. Thus, it is written, “ten and not nine, ten and not eleven.” Only if there is a complete ten, we can talk about Sefirot. That’s why eventually you have to connect with others because the shattering is in the person. He has to first connect, in which he will be correcting his shattered relationship with reality.
Hi .by controling the creator, you mean as we change our intention in malkhut we can change the behavior of light in z a and bina? right?
Concerning: “I shall rule”. I understand the concept (from your previous answers in this forum).
Give me coke, here you go. Give me steak, here you go. Malchut is in control, it can receive or it can reject reception.
But, if I want an apple, the real WANT, a desire for an apple, so strong like drinking a glass of water after crossing the desert. Well, I can eat an apple, why not…but eating an apple when I really really want it is something completly different. But that WANT is not ‘generated’ by me. I have the want/desire or I don’t have it.
So Malchut THINKS that it’s in control, but Creator generated a desire (for an apple) and Malchut then asks for that apple (and not for let’s say for a cereal, because it does not want a cereal, or the want is weaker compared to the want for an apple). And Malchut thinks it’s so smart, so in control, but it’s not, because it can’t control which desires it has. The only control it has is how those desires get filled, or in other words, it can play a little, but Crator knows that sooner or later (because that’s the meaning of the Thought of Creation; it’s already ‘written’ what shall be) Malchut will come to it’s senses and do the right reception.
Am I understanding this correctly?
Of course it’s all known in the Thought of Creation what will be. It’s all so that the Created Being will clarify where it is free and where it is not free. It has to first falsely believe it is free so that it can find out what freedom isn’t. So freedom isn’t where all my actions are secretly operated by the Upper Force and I realize my inclination without asking any questions.
Hello My Name is Kebede Mamo Dessis
What is the light that was revealed on the first day of creation ?
How do we reveal light?
That doesn’t refer to our world. It doesn’t mean that the universe was dark with only cosmic dust and then the sun came out, or something like that. This refers to the development of the Desire to Receive, without which there is nothing in which the pleasure (the Light) can be felt. So, the beginning is the creation of the desire that is essentially one with the Light. That is, the instant it wants, the fulfillment is already inside, such that the Light and the Vessel are indistinguishable, like a mother with her newborn. It’s not even considered receiving when the baby breastfeeds. In fact, the mom gets all the delight by the fact that her baby is eating and the baby has no identity separate from his mother. Now, we’re many degrees after that state. We have our own Desire to Receive and the Upper Force does not automatically fulfill it. Now we need to develop an Intention for why we receive. That sounds simple however it’s the entire wisdom of Kabbalah that is needed just for this.
