Preparation Question: Our entire work in Kabbalah is only to attract the light that reforms. By this we receive everything we need for our advancement. Furthermore, I’m told that if I will help the others, I will advance myself even more towards spirituality. How does this work? What does it mean to help the others, those with the point in the heart, on the spiritual path?

It probably means that “I” am not really I, such that my true “I” should be re-centered from the corporeal center of gravity that “I” have mistakenly understood to me “myself” all my life, to the collective body of the friends (which I assume is identical to what is called a “partzuf”).

By helping others we increase the size of the kli, support the emergence of the point in the heart,

and attract the light that reforms.

Because we are in a interconnected system where there is no separation, therefore by helping each other we all rise together to the occasion. The difference being we are making the conscious effort and choice through our choice of the right environment. To help others on the spiritual path by having their desires become ours because we are not separate.

To help the others means to “love your neighbor as yourself”, which in turn means to do everything with the highest good of all involved. This does not imply to indulge and facilitate egoistic pleasures of the others (even if this is what they currently want), but only to make room for them to advance spiritually and assist in that if needed. Therefore, the others may not always be happy with such help, because this may restrict the flow of pleasure in their egoistic vessels and this is a challenging thing to endure. However, if they truly and deeply seek spirituality, they will appreciate it (sooner or later).

to create more happy people ( giving them peace and clam ) and show them how to do . ??

No man is an island. So no wonder that at some point a solitary quest for spiritual attainment will get us no further. By opening up to others we get the information we need to advance. In such a state of openess we can not but also be of help to others. By connecting we connect to a higher level of consciousness, we draw the right inspiration, the one that will enable us to progress effortlessly. We guide each other by following the light we attract by our loving attitude and acceptance of each other and ourselves. This loving humbleness is elevating, it fills what is empty and grows our desire to give and share our cup of joy.
