In response to Gianni’s challenge for the Young Group, here goes my excerpt:
Shamati 19. What Is the Creator Hates the Bodies, in the Work
Since there is a rule that there is fear of God only from a place of dearth, and a place of dearth is called “the will to receive”, it means that only then is there a place for labor. In what? In that it resists.
It perfectly describes my present dearth/ lack and complete concealment of the Creator, justifying it as a necessary step in the path.
Gianni’s invitation to write down one’s favorite excerpt from the sources, with motivation why so, as ‘homework” for his young group:
Baal Hasulam – Shamati I Heard
208. Labor
The efforts that one makes are but preparations for achieving devotion. Hence, one should grow accustomed to devotion, since no degree can be achieved without devotion, as this is the only tool that qualifies one to be rewarded with all the degrees.This writing is important to me as it gives clear instruction that devotion to the Friends, Creator, and the path is the only tool that qualifies one for rewards of the degrees. A tool to evolve human collective egotistical nature to shorten the days of blows. A call for me to show up and do what the Creator is requesting.
Gianni’s invitation to write down one’s favorite excerpt from the sources, with motivaton why so, as ‘homework” for his young group:
From “The peace” by Baal Ha Sulam:All is in deposit, and a fortress spreads over all of life. The store is open and the shopkeeper sells by deferred payment; the book is open and the hand writes. And all who wish to borrow may come and borrow, and the collectors return regularly, day by day, and collect from a person knowingly and unknowingly. And they have what to rely on, and the judgment is true, and all is ready for the feast.
An open invitation to live life fully, but consciously, knowing cause and consequence, but there is room for a free choice.
“There is no difference between this world and the next world, except that one is temporary and one is eternal.”
– Yehuda Leib Ha-Levi Ashlag (Baal HaSulam)/Articles, Remembering
As a young group homework (Gianni) – I chose this excerpt. I picked it up at random. For me it feels like: nothing belongs to us. Everything is what the Creator is giving us. This world dissolves once it loses its purpose. And also – I must say – I think there is no first place award in eternity.
Since a few days ( a week) I can not find the Pticha lessons anymore. ( the ones with Eran and later Gianni and Zohar), in the Grad Environment. Can this be restored, or where can Ifind this lessons from now on? They were (are) so precious.
