Hi Gianni

Rabash teaches us to work on loving the friends and seeing their greatness. I understand that through this work we eventually discover our inability to truly bestow, and that this lack becomes the vessel for the Creator’s help. Intellectually this makes sense to me. My question is about the ongoing fuel for the work: since my body only moves when it expects some benefit, and since I also understand that I must eventually discover failures, how does the method provide enough motivation(in addition to wanting to achieve the goal of  creation/correction) to work sincerely over time without collapsing into either despair or mechanical action?

thanks

thank you for that clarification. we were also advised to only elevate the friends, but not share our lowliness to avoid bring the entire Ten down. but if I do not know a friend’ state, how do I elective this friend? I recently shared an excerpt about how it was the creator who sent us wicked thoughts, then realized that a few friends were “suffering” silently. if we knew what each other had been going through, we probably would all just be honest and openly talking about it, instead of feeling low and lonely silently. we were given homework, our zoom calls are all centered around homework, it mostly talking with brain on knowledge side, what is Laban, what is Esau, what is Jacob etc. maybe we understood the rules wrong? it feels like we need heart to heart talk, share the spies we noticed in ourselves, share the obstacles we encountered, so we can identify our common deficiencies, then raise our common prayer.

so I guess my question is, what should we would (other than go to classes, join zoom calls, share excerpts, force ourselves to talk positively, act positively etc) are also considered bestowing? I know those ‘acting” are needed, but it feels like we also need something deeper.

Hi Gianni

it’s me again 🙂

So our correction is to aim for receiving in order to bestow to the Creator, and we can only achieve that through bestowing to the Ten. but I am not the Creator, the Creator bestows endless light/love to us, but me as a pure will to receive, what do I have that I can bestow to my friends?

thanks

Hi Gianni

How do I view life events less as distractions, but rather material/fuel for spiritual work?

thanks

Hi Gianni, you hardly directly answer my questions, yet your answers always inspire me and point me to a better direction I didn’t think of. thank you!

not sure how to install without understanding, especially when there are opposites…literally I do not know what to ask the creator now.

this remind me of another question about prayer. my understanding (with your previous help) on thoughts/desires/emotions, is that they are the product of the interaction between the light and my Klipot, is that correct? that’s why it’s said they are from the creator. how does my prayer work with the light and klipot?
