Chris – KabU InstructorModeratorPleasure is pleasure. It just depends what kind of pleasure do you want. Do you want to give pleasure to the Creator or to yourself?
Chris – KabU InstructorModeratorCreator: “I’ve created the evil inclination, I’ve created the Torah as a spice.”
Chris – KabU InstructorModeratorI wouldn’t say it like that. I would say the Creator manages all of reality and provides you, in every minuscule detail, the correct conditions for spiritual growth. The fact that we do not perceive it this way doesn’t mean we can ascribe all sorts of other causes.
Chris – KabU InstructorModeratorHey mrc,
If a person wants to develop their point in the heart, it’s certainly recommended to put it in the best environment as often as possible.
Compare it to a seed that must grow from the ground. You wouldn’t want to remove it from its place.
Thanks!
Chris – KabU InstructorModeratorHi mrc,
Good question. First what’s “outside of us” is the illusion since we learn that all of reality is only within a person, what’s outside of us, we cannot say. That being said, this illusory perception of seeing a world outside of me and not recognizing it as all of it actually being me, my own parts this is what the Creator lets us feel, He gives us this perception and sensation of reality which seemingly comes from the outside as well. All of our changes however, are inner changes. When our inner qualities change, the way we perceive the world also changes – which you could also say the world itself changes since it’s all with respect to me anyways.
When we start working to bring all those parts that I feel and see as outside of me, back inward, to make them whole within me again, the force, the power I need in order to do that is the Creator himself. He is the glue. He is in the connections, not in the others, but in the connection between the parts.
Hope that helps, thanks!
Chris
Chris – KabU InstructorModeratorHi Linda,
Kedusha simply speaks about bestowal, above reception. Mitzvot are the actions of the light that reform a person and bring them to those actions of bestowal.
Thanks!
Chris
