But if you start measuring, there’s no hope of success here. Instead, the contents of our gatherings should be only spiritual, as much as possible, and I should justify everything. We don’t understand yet how much the Creator is going to play with our minds and hearts specifically in this regard – so if I allow myself any room to calculate, there will be no end to it. I’ll never know where the line is accurately. What will I measure with? My ego?
Therefore, the group is an environment like a womb where only what we read in Rabash exists. With what intentions though? I don’t care with what intentions – simply on the surface is enough. That’s a fence for the ego to stay within. This gives space for every friend to only work above reason. It’s a very harsh condition for the ego and the whole Young Group is practically to explain where the fence is and explain why only within it there’s a chance of climbing the ladder to the spiritual world.
I think there’s a lesson in young group pertaining to men and women, and you can ask questions about that there.
By the question, it’s clear that the measure is precisely none. I have no Masach, and therefore no Light. In fact, I don’t have a Kli yet either. If I feel something at all, it’s that from time to time, I feel the Reshimo [the record of the future state] of the Kli that I’m trying to build.
As Baal HaSulam writes, something outside the person is unreal. So I can kill an ant, a fly, a cow, why is a person a problem unless there exist laws and punishment. Therefore there are places where they behead dozens in the public square and it’s a great celebration. Whatever is outside me, unless it gives me pleasure is taking up space and may, god forbid, even take pleasure away from me.
Hi Mark, yes, Adam HaRishon (first man) was not the first man, but the first to reach the degree of Adam [human], meaning a degree above the ego, above our world.
