Hi Yvon,

I cannot comment on your personal situation, we can only talk about these things in general. In general, we learn from the Kabbalists that every single moment comes to us directly from the Creator, this is called “there is none else besides Him”. Furthermore, they also say that He is the “good that does good”. Meaning that every moment He is sending us nothing but goodness. Why then don’t we see this in our world? Why don’t we feel everything that is happening as something good?

This is because our world is governed by our egoistic nature. This egoistic nature is opposite to the Creator’s nature. Because of that, it inverts the Creator’s goodness into something bad. It’s just like multiplying numbers, a positive times a negative equals negative.

So as long as we remain within this egoistic nature, we will continue to see and feel more evil and suffering in the world. But if we correct our nature to be similar to the Creator’s nature, we will reveal the true reality in which only goodness exists and that our previous egoistic state was nothing more than a dream.

We’ll learn about these concepts in more detail in the future lessons, but in the meantime, check out this blog post from Rav Laitman for more details: https://laitman.com/2011/06/how-can-we-justify-the-creator/

Hi Michael,

We learn that all of humanity is part of one single system, like cells within a single body. So naturally what one experiences influences EVERYONE else. And if I reach a correction, this same correction influences everyone. But I don’t actually correct the other person, rather I correct my part that is found within everyone.

It’s like a hologram where the big image is made up of identical smaller copies of that image. So if there is a flaw in one of the smaller images, that same flaw is found in every piece. And if you correct that flaw in the small piece, it’s reflected in the whole image. But each one will still need to correct their part of the general picture.

Hi Xavid,

Yes, you can say that. Ultimately we’re all parts of a single system within which everyone will need to reach their spiritual correction. The only difference is that there are those that are awakened to this work earlier and those that are awakened to it later. This is because there is a certain order of corrections that need to take place. It’s like building a large jigsaw puzzle. First you start with all the corner pieces, and only then do you gradually work your way to the center. So those that received awakened points in the hearts are like those corner pieces of the puzzle that need to start the whole process. Later on, due to their good work, they pave the way for the rest of the world to join this process.

Hi Irianti,

Losing interest in our physical desires is a temporary state. It’s a present from the Creator to give us the opportunity to plant our point in the heart in a good spiritual environment. But after that, in order to actually develop spiritually, we will discover greater and more egoistic desires within ourselves. After all, what use do I have of the light, if I don’t have what to correct with it? So the more we advance, the more we will reveal bigger and more egoistic desires, and the higher the spiritual level we will attain by correcting those huge desires with the help of the light.

google translation of Henry’s question:

According to Tony’s annotation, it is in the state of double concealment where “the person feels a complete rejection of the High and a loss of faith, and it is the period in which a person reincarnates”. I am not clear about reincarnation, if it occurs with the death of the person to return reborn to continue their spiritual path; furthermore, why is it at this stage that said reincarnation occurs?

Hi Henry,

When Kabbalists talk about reincarnation, they are not talking about bodies, rather they are talking on the level of desire. Reincarnation is the process by which our desire are constantly changing and renewing.

Hi Ozie,

I wouldn’t stress it, it’s completely normal to not understand these things. This is why the Kabbalists tell us “it’s not the wise that learns”. Meaning we’re not learning this material simply to acquire knowledge, to store it in some box in our brains. After all, If knowledge was the path to spirituality, then a supercomputer loaded with all of the Kabbalistic texts would be the most spiritual being in the world. Obviously this is not the case.

So why do we spend so much time studying if not to gain knowledge? Because through the study, we draw the force of the light. This force is what makes all the internal changes, clarifications, corrections that need to be made. After we extract enough light and correct ourselves to a certain degree, then we won’t just intellectually philosophize about spirituality, but we will begin to feel it in practice. And only out of that feeling will we begin to truly understand it.

So it’s normal what you’re feeling. The important thing is to just keep going, keep placing yourself under the influence of the light and it will balance everything out.
