Hi Greg,
These are different approaches to the Upper Force, and both are welcome. The thing is, the Upper Force doesn’t receive a request from me as from a man. It’s disrespectful for a man to come to me and demand anything. But when my baby demands, it’s actually adorable. I’m even proud that he is learning how to stand up for himself somewhat. It’s not in his powers to disrespect me, you understand. The Upper Force, in the best case, treats us as a baby from whom it adores any request or demand, the more specific and cogent, the more contentment we give the Creator.
Both can work, and there’s more scrutiny required for both. But generally, a prayer outside oneself is more important, much more effective.
Hebrew is first of all a geometric representation of how the Lights enter the Vessel. And this occurs from Right to Left.
It’s best to work toward the good. So, try to reach spirituality. This, by contrast, reveals more of the ego. Only the revelation of evil (the ego) is missing since to the extent of one’s awareness of it, one can’t bear it, and has a true request for change.
Hi Greg,
You could replace it, but that’s not what the Kabbalist wrote, so I wouldn’t. This text is pretty challenging. It’s for beginners but as you advance you discover more and more depth. Here it’s talking about layers of sensation of the Creator’s control over me, and my corresponding level of agreement with that control. There are many fathoms to this control, which one has to discover, agree with – as His control is hidden in ratio to my lack of readiness to accept it. In the meantime I’m in a completely illusory feeling on control over myself and things around me.
