These are details I don’t know about and am not involved with – but if it were me, I also wouldn’t pay attention to them. Even if I myself were told that now I’m being placed in a just-graduated KabU ten, I would be grateful for the opportunity to nullify to a decision that is not mine. We have precious few such opportunities. And toward any ten, I can nullify like Rabbi Yosi Ben Kisma. At the end of the day, it is only that I must come to love something that is outside my borders.
Nothing should be applied to one’s corporeal life. What could be applied? The games from our kindergarten here? They’re only to draw the Reforming Light. So that it will impart something real: the Screen. Until then you simply have nothing to take out to the world.
I didn’t hear something like that from Rabash, but if it helps you be inspired by them – sure, try all kinds of tactics to awaken yourself and others. You have to try everything. The trying is what invites the Upper Light – and only it does something.
For two tens to dissolve into one, permanently?
If it’s by KabU or the Arvut team, then it’s the decision of the group, and it’s more important to nullify my opinion.
Otherwise, there’s no trend in BB to connect the tens. Tens work within, for now.
Again, I don’t really know what we’re talking about.
We have to feel it. Yes, it’s bestowal above reception. But what that means, we can’t imagine. Bestowal itself, we can’t imagine. But we need to try to work in that direction, and what we’ll attain first is how much we’re not in these matters. That will aim us toward what we want, to truly want it.
I understand. You’re reasoning and thinking about the Creator as if His mind and heart would function via similar mechanisms to how ours do. About this, Kabbalists write that the Creator says, “Your thoughts are not as my thoughts.” And now I need to say something seemingly contradictory, but it’s not. The Torah, it is written, is written in the language of people. Meaning it’s written according to how we attain the Creator on various degrees of correction that the Torah writes about. So, on the degrees of correction and attainment of the Creator, I will attain Him in my Kli [vessel] as if now He is saddened, now He is wrathful. But that’s only how I feel Him in the state of my Kli. Here, we’re not speaking of perceptions that I should convinced myself of, that He’s like this or like that. But it’s written there, and you will attain those states as clearly as you see the sun in the morning sky.
But all His behaviors are of bestowal, relating to us for our benefit and only our benefit. He doesn’t think of Himself. How do Kabbalists know? This is what they attain.
