It’s good, Lyndon. Let’s continue. We have to take the concepts as axioms. That’s called “faith in the sages”. If a scientist has claimed he discovered something, and I want to check his work, I have to believe in him don’t I? Otherwise it’s not worth my time to carry out the work. We can prove in every way that all is interconnected, one system, and yet each one will have to correct himself to feel it. Because not feeling it comes from the fact that I am shattered. That’s why I see things and feel them as shattered. That’s why I need to work on love of friends. Because I don’t have a non-shattered attitude towards anything. I need to start with the group, then; to build an interconnected system there. I can start feeling it there and extend it later to the whole world.
Because there is pressure from the Light, to receive it. I also want to receive it. However, I must not receive it. So these forces collide.
This is how you’re structured inside. It’s more personal than your own home. It’s the structure of the soul.
Shame we are willing to die rather than experience. Our whole lives we do almost nothing except for hedging against any incidence of shame. We can’t enjoy shame.
These names come from the gematria. There are numbers associated with letters and depending on the Light in the Kli is determined this number, and this creates the names Galgalta, AB, SAG… all the names in Kabbalah are determined in this way, though some seem more normal to us.
You’re half right. In the Light, you have a taste of all the Light. However, the Light is always according to the Vessel. And so, you don’t taste all that is possible – everything is possible by the Light – but only what you have a Vessel for. By the same token, Eyn Sof doesn’t mean “infinite” – that’s just a math concept, we don’t really know what it is – Eyn Sof means that the Vessel is filled completely, without limit. In the Light there could be much more, but according to the Vessel it is unlimited because it is filled to the brim. It thus doesn’t feel any limit.
