That’s a very healthy corporeal attitude. That’s why you’re correct in your instincts about envy. However, envy works. It’s built into our nature – no matter what tactics we devise to avoid it. You should continue your way – corporeally. Don’t throw it away. But add to it that “envy, lust and honor bring a person out of this world.” That is: only these three bring a person to the Upper World. How kind was the Creator to give us this tool. You must learn the corrected form of envy, envying only friends in the spiritual group and no one else. This is one’s only hope to reach spirituality!
Erin, I’m sorry this took so long. You’re thinking is partly correct but your conclusions aren’t, and it’s not your fault. We can’t understand by deduction. Everything has a precise root in the 4 phases that f Direct Light, and you’re right that besides expressing them in the language of Kabbalah, we could express them in 3 other languages, one of which is the language of the Bible. It’s the same 4 phases of direct Light, like how I don’t change by my wife calling me Gianni, my daughter calling me dad, my students calling me teacher. All point at the same phenomenon: this cluster of forces called Gianni. However to find out exactly how these languages correlate you must attain their roots in the world of Atzilut.
You’re right, Ahmed. The parameter besides the intensity of the desire is it’s quality, which is rooted in the 4 Phases of Direct Light. But that’s it!
Yeah. No, there is no death, a moment later you’re once again in the only reality suited to revealing the spiritual world while you’re still in this world. There’s nowhere else one can go except here. From this reality precisely, every person will eventually open up the spiritual worlds – and not from any other.
You didn’t cause any offense. You mentioned a general phenomenon of “taking a break”, which many students wonder about, and so I answered about that generally – not directed to anyone in particular.
That instructor probably meant here, in this vessel with which we perceive our world, which we feel through our five senses. That’s true, the spiritual world is not revealed instead of this world, but in addition. It’s revealed in a new 5 senses. We still live in this world but perceive an additional dimension where we perceive the forces that operate it. Like the ear is the vessel that can perceive sound and the eye is the vessel that can perceive sight, our current senses are the ones in which one can perceive this world; the spiritual 5 senses are the type of senses that can perceive the spiritual worlds.
Part of why friends want to leave is that the ego blocks me from hearing. In fact this is the only reason. You can play me nice music, holy words, whatever you want: I can’t hear it. It all stops at the ear, and doesn’t reach the heart. If a person allows themselves a “break” from what they themselves promised themselves was their level of commitment, this is like a wife “taking a break” from her marriage. That’s how it’s accepted by the Upper Force.
Beginners often “take a break” also before they’ve digested what this wisdom is. For example, you got the impression that we don’t reveal the Creator? Perhaps others got that impression as well. When there’s nothing to do here besides this. Nothing to learn, nothing to know, nothing to believe in. Whoever isn’t expecting to reveal the Creator in this lifetime shouldn’t study Kabbalah.
