I really liked the fact that WE have to change, that the lesson emphasizes on self-actualization.

Would you please explain the meaning of KELIM. What it is…in its essence? What is it in a person in our world? What’s the difference between kelim when the world was created before ….tzimtzum…and after tzimtzum. Do we all have kelim…and what about the kelim of the upper worlds / stages. Can I call myself a kli? Mini version of the bigger version of things.
Thank you!

October 9, 2022 at 4:39 pm EDT in reply to: Ask anything about week 1 lesson and materials and get an answer from a senior Kabbalah instructor. #301791AaronParticipantI read an article by Rabash “What Is the Gift that a Person Asks of the Creator?”
There he says that desire to bestow, and other “cool stuff” kind of…COMES DOWN to a person if he keeps walking the path of Torah and mitzvot.
Is….the Light and the right desire (to accept the Light and everything Creator wants to give) is waiting for a person to grow enough and then comes down from the Creator and a person and Creator get a different kind of connection.
Would you be able to explain this part of the article for me better? (I will copy paste 2 paragraphs from Rabash’s article”:
HERE:
According to the above, we should interpret that the verse, “For the ways of the Lord are straight. The righteous walk in it and the wicked fail in them.” This means that precisely at this point, when a person comes to a resolution that it is not within man’s power to obtain vessels of bestowal because he sees that not a single organ in his body agrees to this, now he has arrived at the point of truth. Now he should make an honest prayer for the Creator to help him. Certainly, he will receive the help from the Creator, who sits and waits for man to give him the Kli, meaning the need for it. It is precisely here that a person escapes from that state, and precisely here is where the help can come to him. Yet, he escapes the campaign and for this reason he is called “a criminal.”
Yet, the righteous does not despair because specifically now he is rewarded with vessels of bestowal. It follows that in the same place where “the righteous walk,” meaning receive an ascent in degree, in that very same place “the wicked fail.” Precisely in this place where they should receive help, they fail and escape the campaign.
It follows from all the above that man should ask for the Creator’s giving, meaning that the Creator will give him as a gift the vessels of reception, just as He has given him the Kli called “will to receive.”
Thank you!

If there’s none else besides Him, then what is our purpose? What’s the purpose of all human beings? What is my purpose?

” The screen that has to be built is the spiritual screen over the Will To Receive”. This is what one of the lessons says. It says that it all starts with the screen. Before the screen we live in darkness.
Now that I know that, that I lack the screen, I don’t want to live in the darkness anymore. How to build the spiritual screen? Do you have to keep studying Kabballah…and the screen will form itself with time? Or ….is there a faster process…let’s say you have to change your everyday actions, habits etc.
Kabbalah says spiritual things have nothing to do with our physical body. How to build the screen then? Are we stuck. When I study Kabbalah I feel like I’m doing something without purpose (figuratively speaking). All the things Baal Sulam, Ari, Mr. Laitman say..it all exists (if I understand it right) after a person gets the screen.
So how do I proceed?
Thank you! 🙂
Also what if you don’t finish the correction. You’ll have to reincarnate. Change the body like a jacket. Who determines the speed (how fast one can achieve the final tikun)? The Creator? Or it is in the hands of creation and creation can choose how fast it can go? I don’t want to waste time of my life doing stupid unnecessary things and get behind on the process of correction. Are all of the things in our life in the world except for studying Kabbalah useless??
