Hi Julia,
Yes, animals are naturally in balance with nature on their level and don’t require any correction.
Although we do sometimes see animals suffering. This is because the speaking (human) level is at the top of the pyramid of nature. And since the human level is not corrected, it corrupts all the lower levels of nature. In other words, when we correct ourselves, we will see the rest of the levels of nature come back into their natural balance.

Hi Julia,
No, we don’t incarnate as plants or animals, rather all those levels of desires are inside of us.
As for mastering the desires, everyone has a certain set of desires that they need to experience before the point in the heart awakens. But you don’t need to fulfill all of your desires or go through all the other desires to reach the point in the heart. Rather, whenever it’s awakened within a person is when he can already start to realize it. If you’re here, it’s already a sign that the point in the heart awakened in you.

Hi Melissa,
Restriction means to stop using the desire to receive. After the restriction comes the screen, which is an attempt to use the desire to receive in order to bestow. Check out the Guest and Host analogy in Chapter 3 of Attaining the Worlds Beyond for more details.

Hi Julia,
No one is born with a masach. This would violate the rule that “there is no coercion in spirituality”. Rather, the screen is something we build by connecting our points in the heart together. We’ll learn about this in the more advanced lessons.

Hi Julia,
1. Everyone has a point in the heart but not everyone’s point in the heart is active.
2. Without an active point in the heart, they cannot choose the path of light. But they are still part of the system and the system is still working on them. They will still experience problems, they just won’t understand the source of the problems.
It’s like with gravity, a baby who does not understand this law of nature can crawl off a cliff and gravity will still be working on it, regardless of the fact that this baby does not understand it. Likewise with those without active points in the heart, the laws of nature will not change for them. They will still experience the path of suffering, but they won’t understand the reason for it.

Hi Paul,
We’re not limited by the number of lives. Rather, the end goal is set. All of life is constantly pushing us to that goal. Our choice is in building for ourselves a spiritual environment, a type of spiritual incubator to help us speed up this process of reaching that goal, or wait for the pressures in life to build up and start pushing us towards that goal.
