Hi Lori,
A gentile has nothing to do with your family lineage. That won’t help or harm you. A gentile is one who has not attained the spiritual world during their life in this world, meaning has not attained Equivalence of Form with the Upper Force of bestowal. A Jew is someone who has. I can call myself Jewish all I want, but if I haven’t reached the Upper World in a permanent way while still living in this world, then I have to return, to correct myself. It has nothing to do with what you are, but what you do.
Surely it only makes sense or even draws the Reforming Light in the ten. If I was going to read it ‘alone’ I’d need to first have a connection with my friends, as in a hug, a common prayer, a common intention – only then I can study for the Reforming Light, because it works on a broken connection only, to connect the shattered pieces.
In person you have a much greater preparation, because across all the physical preparations, internally it prepares you. On top of that, you need to prepare your intention consciously: “Why am I coming?” In a virtual connection, you don’t get that automatic preparation, so to do it seriously requires a lot more conscious inner preparation.
Yes, what doesn’t enter the Kli remains as Ohr Makif. Of course, the quality of the Light is determined by the Kli. After all, we’re in the Light of Eyn Sof now, but without a Kli to feel it. We feel heaven as a dumpster because of the Kli we have. The reduction in quantity is also a change in the Kli, here. So, it’s a completely different Light, from 3/2 to 2/1 because the bottom number represents the Kli itself, so it’s the difference between the quality of Bina and Tifferet.
No, there is a Screen at the place in the Rosh called Nikvey Enaiim (pupils of the eyes). The Light comes from Above, and this Screen only lets pass down below that which can be received to bestow. It has been decided according to the request from below, where the Parsa stands at the place in the Guf which corresponds to Nikvey Enaiim in the Rosh.
MA and BON do their own Zivug de Hakaa with the Light, and receive accordingly.
It’s because beginners don’t understand what it means that Kabbalah is a science, and that’s why it doesn’t touch those things. Like in a physics class, there are things that are not up for discussion because physics deals with more fundamental levers, talking about emotional states that are within the ego would be like computer programmers talking about what’s on the computer screen rather than the code. They’d consider doing so as ludicrous. It’s actually, like you said, noise, relative to the job at hand – though to the layperson, the images on the screen are the MAIN thing.
