That’s right. Baal HaSulam, for example, is a special soul, the same soul as the Ari, Rashbi…
And generally there are those who come with more readiness to begin with.
Your legs and your brain can’t both work according to the same principles. Each has to do its role in its place. So, too, we can’t do the work in the group, on the outside. One work is not appropriate to the other. But later we see these compliment each other, and do not infringe upon each other. For now, without seeing why, keep them discrete.
Yes, there’s a degree called “Do not do to others that which you hate.” This is actually very serious. Were we to implement this in humanity, what foods would we be able to sell to people out of what’s currently being sold? What ads could be run? What would we see on the news, in social media? We’d see that the world would basically grind to a halt because before we even get to the illegal stuff, we’d see everything is based on hate of others. So, just stopping, and not doing that which you’d hate done to you, is the midpoint, after which comes love of others, love them as you love yourself. Even that midpoint is already spiritual. Meaning I need an x-ray to show me all the ways I’m not yet even at this midpoint.
Everything is psychology, including the whole perception of reality, that you feel things as liquid, solid, and so on. It’s all in one’s perception. So, the fact that all you feel so far are what in ordinary parlance are ‘psychological effects’ is because you’re on the beginning of the path. But, later, in this same direction is the spiritual perception of reality.
The right direction is that in which you’re aiming at connection among friends with the expectation for the Light to work, for the Creator to be revealed in that connection.
