I only need to correct myself. All the world is for me alone – a projection of internality: everyone else is corrected already.
First of all, we’re all giving contentment to the Creator, and we’re at the end of correction. What’s missing is that we don’t feel any of that. Therefore, we need to feel and know that we are giving Him contentment. And until that enters my feeling and clear attainment, I can’t say that I’m giving Him contentment.
If I want a criterion by which to know that I’m not giving Him contentment, that’s easier. I’m not giving Him contentment if I’m not relating to Him and the friends as one, and aiming to give Him contentment through this.
The thought of heresy is from the sensation that there is more than one force governing reality, and there is no one on the spiritual path (let alone people with no connection to this path) who does not – in certain states – feel that there are multiple forces working on him at a time – as it’s written, “there is no Righteous in the land who does good and did not sin.” But the question is what I do with this multiplicity. Do I go with it and think like others do, or do I work to ascribe each and everything to None But Him, the singular Creator.
Hi Paul. I got an ordinary corporeal feeling of exhilaration due to the biological processes triggered by the cold. I didn’t gain any wisdom or awareness from it since wisdom and awareness of something above this world can only come as a result of a spiritual action. No corporeal action is more or less than any other corporeal action. Therefore, it’s merely an analogy for our spiritual work that happens in an entirely different arena.
