If I dwell on it I’m in the Klipa (shell) and I’m even in a negative advancement. If the bad feeling spurs me to correct my actions, it’s good.
I recommend reading Shamati or Attaining the Worlds Beyond.
It’s a good question. We say that the end of correction is when all the shattered pieces of the soul reach their filling with the Light in Atzilut. But we see in the book HaIlan that Baal HaSulam draws degrees in which the worlds roll up like a carpet. And there are other suggestions in the Zohar that there’s something beyond. The whole process is the putting together of the car, and afterward we can drive, is how I heard it from my teacher. In the end, we’re talking about one Vessel that reaches perfection and Equivalence with the Creator, and there’s still something to do once we reach that.
In the natural world, each thing has a root in the Upper World in a one-to-one relationship. When humans start making all kinds of things, not everything has a clear root. Like a computer doesn’t, for example, but a book does. Typically the root is called by the name we have for the branch in our world.
Baal HaSulam writes how Rabbi Yosi Ben Kisma made himself small before his students, and that’s why he advanced. You’re in a situation where you’re convinced that you’re greater than the ten. And this is the problem you have to advance, and not the problem you’re suggesting.
They’re Baal HaSulam, Rabash, and Dr. Laitman’s teachings, and I’m glad you enjoyed them in this course. It all went inside, even if it’s not mentally clear yet. And it will all be there when you need it.
