We always try to give in None Else Besides Him and He is Good Who Does Good. We can check if we’re in this, everywhere. But we need to check it against two backgrounds, like aiming a rifle. It doesn’t matter which sight we check first, but both need to line up. Otherwise we’re aiming off in the wrong direction. Usually a person checks only one or the other, so this process is long.
Hi Aleta,
Terms like religious or mystical are only applied to Kabbalists by those who don’t really know what Kabbalah is. Everyone is, understandably, at least partly convinced that Kabbalah is religious and/or mystical – precisely to the extent of their lack of personal attainment of this wisdom. When one attains it, they see clearly that a great Kabbalist could show no signs of external religion. That’s because they are utterly independent.
The efforts to justify the friends is where we can check our attitude to the Creator. Justifying the friends is related to connection with them. Connection with them is related to my connection with the Creator. Connection with the Creator means I’ll certainly justify Him. If my relationship, in all parameters, is the same toward Creator and friends, it’s true.
Yes, it’s just a phase. Later, you’ll see with complete clarity that every deed by every one is an act of the Will to Receive, and there isn’t a shred of good in the world. It’s only that some forms of it please our Will to Receive, so we call that good. Some forms are worse for the existence of society, so we call that bad. All of it is equally the Will to Receive, without any difference – at least from the perspective of the Upper Force. But we start being fine with that because it’s all just the matter of Creation. As beginners, we’re coming out of the delusion that we’re ok because we’re good, to the more true realization that we’re not good but that’s ok because the Creator made us opposite to Him on purpose because then we can invert it and become like Him, and since we went through this, we will actually know Him, His nature, and this is a great gift to Creation.
