Okay…thats very clear. But if we observe then in daily life that we are not capable of pure bestowing, can we do then a request for help in daily life also (a prayer for changing our intention, not for changing our external action), or are we only doing prayers in the ten ?

*or AS IF we receive in order to bestow  (see my message below)

How then do we have to take decisions and act in the corporeal world? We do a lot of actions everyday, and i think that we have to act with the intention “AS IF” we bestow in order to bestow. Even if that intention is not possible, we can fake it. And at the same time we can observe how our will to receive pops always in. That seems for me a better attitude then just acting without being conscious of my agenda. And so in that way we can say that there’s also “Kabbalah” in our corporeal decisions.

I understand it…yes, “be the change you want to see in the world” (Gandhi).

Thank you Gianni, the comparison you made with a romantic relationship makes it directly very clear!  Indeed, imagine that we would behave ourselfs as if we were in love with everybody, how beautiful this world would become!

The simple fact that i want to change this world, is the proof that i’m still in my will to receive. Because if this world doesn’t give me pleasure, it “must” change in order to make ME feel better. So the desire to change it has nothing to do with what’s going on in the world, but everything with my egoistical need (its compulsive). Only when i don’t want to change it anymore, i come out of this compulsive  desire and i become free. Is this a correct way of seeing things?
