A Kabbalist can answer himself, but you won’t receive a satisfactory answer for why it’s allowed to happen. You have billions of egoists doing what seems good to them, and no matter how it looks, each and everyone justifies himself. We’re having a dream that it’s all happening, because this dream develops us. Through it we realize what we’re really made of. If we really realized it, none would be able to keep doing what they’re doing. Until then, one maims and murders while managing to tell himself that he does good. It’s really to that extent. And there is nothing that can be done – not education, change in government. You can do it, but it will only exchange one evil for another. Because – again – this dream we’re in has a different purpose from such reforms, for each one to reach the revelation of his own evil: that is, the extent to which (an unlimited extent) he uses his Will to Receive, not only not in favor of others, but to serve himself, and even if it costs others greatly and benefits me to a minuscule extent. For them to stop doing this, but still remain the same inside, that is to not yet realize that they are evil, is not an acceptable outcome for the Creator. Usually, we just want them to stop doing it. The Creator disagrees with such coercion. Rather, each has to recognize deeply what’s in him, that he’s just like all those evildoers, deep down, in the part of his nature that still remains concealed from him. And all this, he needs to correct, through the Reforming Light in the wisdom of Kabbalah. He needs this Light both to realize that he needs correction, and then to make the correction, in that order. All those you speak of still think, “I’m great. It’s everyone else but me…” You see this is a few steps of concealment away from even beginning the correction.
Yes, and doing good is mainly in the intention, since all actions are essentially egoistic. It’s better to be clear that I’m doing egoistic actions across the board than thinking sometimes I’m good and sometimes not.
Did you really suffer in a dream? Or you only imagined you suffered. How do you view it after you’ve woken up?
But you do get something of value from dreaming.
Hi Logynn,
We don’t need any self-criticism because I didn’t do anything – the Creator did it. Anything deeper than that is already a Klipa (shell) in disguise. About the future though, I have to act as if there is no Creator. After I act, the Creator did it. However counterintuitive it seems, this is the only way to see the reality of There Is None Else Besides Him.
