We might all recognize how we influence the others, scrutinize our own intentions in more depth, and process things a little more before we speak or act. This might take some of the burden off of others and make the world a more efficient place to live.
In the 10, are we meant to be representing, or “passing around” the role of the sefirot for the friends?
Also, if I may, as a father I find myself playing “good cop, bad cop” with my wife, as unpleasant as it might be at times; are we meant to play “devil’s advocate,” as it were, in the 10 so that we’re constantly challenging one another, even if we agree with the fundamental direction the 10 is going in? If not, how else do we sharpen our intention… if that’s the purpose?Does the prohibition on slander apply to false prophets? Meaning, if I state that Saul/Paul was an idolater, am I slandering the creator?
I don’t know if it’s the change in weather, but, oddly enough, I’m feeling a joy I haven’t felt since childhood – from before I started judging people harshly. I know this isn’t meant to be therapy, but being able to stay open with you all, in a scrutiny-rich environment is doing something in me. While I know the point isn’t to receive benefits for myself, I’m feeling more connected to others and it feels like I’m on a high right now – I can’t wait for the next low!
