Hey Ben,
Truly, the number itself isn’t important in and of itself. In fact, you can break it down into 6,000 degrees if you want, depending on which perspective you look at it. I’m not exactly sure the question about counting past zero.
The only reason there’s as if a “limit” on the degrees, if we’re talking about something infinite, is that these “holding points” or places where we grasp the Creator and His qualities need to somehow be felt in us and this is always with respect to our opposite quality – the will to receive. The will to receive is sensed as opposite the Creator on 125 degrees, or 6k or 613 – doesn’t matter. There just needs to be some place of contrast and the contrast is felt in the places where He separated us from the other souls – “shattered” that connection and we “repair” it.
Thanks!
Oh, understood. Here, Kabbalists write to us about the one soul of Adam HaRishon. This is the general soul. Each one of us must develop this soul within us – build it. All the discernments and scrutinies we reveal, new perceptions of the world and of reality, all of it come from the realization of our disconnection from that soul and the understanding of what we need to do to correct our perception and thus our part of that one soul itself.
Thanks!
Hey Brad,
First you need the “tool” that can produce the results of revealing the Creator, then you use this tool to reveal Him in all the world. Using that tool though won’t change. What you build in the group is all you need to reveal all of the upper worlds and the complete reality.

Hey mrc,
It depends on what scale you are measuring equality. “Doing good” the way you are asking about would refer to being similar to the Creator, and regarding that, each person has the fate of becoming like Him and rejoining the system of one soul. In what order and how fast that happens doesn’t much depend on us. Whoever He awakens though needs to take on that responsibility.
Thanks!
