It seems like since I started YG group everything in my world is sort of like something Rabash or Baal HaSulam described. Is our reality composed of kind of jumbled echoes of all those states and structures?

How do people in spiritually endure the real things? Is it that they are stronger because the Creator is more revealed? Or maybe from the memory of impressions of the Creator?

I have a question about the definition of klipot and what the ten is in relation to that. I reread “What is the Foundation on which Kedusha is Built?” often because it makes everything make sense, and seems custom written just for me. But there is one thing in there that I only get more confused about.

The article defines (multiple times) two kinds of revelations of evil/the will to receive:

1- a gentle revelation by the Creator (at night, in doubt) which aides the person in fuel for the work and prayers for correction.

2 – “the herdsman of Gerar,” a klipot which seems to reveal to you that you are not capable of the work and should return to corporeality instead. It is demotivating for a relatively long time afterward (compared to the normal length of cycles of feelings in inner work.)

I experience that first one so often, and it’s very unpleasant, but it is also very motivating. You kind of want it, even when it’s awful.

The second one I rarely encounter, but when I do it is exclusively from my ten. This makes me wonder if I have the wrong definition of shells, or the wrong definition of the ten. It seems like the general description of the ten in our Young Group curriculum is this space where nothing is a shell. Everything that every member of the ten says is the Creator speaking and we should consider it as such. That seems to mean that nothing is a shell in there and we should treat it as a revealed message from the Creator.

But the description of the herdsman of Gerar klipot in this article is very clearly describing a dynamic I only see in my ten.

What is the correct way to relate to this?

ok, another way I could word it. Is the light always expelled by in intention?

[Logynn]

Regarding the recording of Rabash yesterday:

When the refinement of the screen causes a feeling of deficiency because the light is ejected, and the light exits through the peh. Is that because the calculation (screen) was a declaration of intent towards the light, not to receive it, because reasons. And that’s why it comes out through the mouth?

You have the words to say what I meant to ask. Thank you so much.

Is the force of aviut directly related to judgement?

[Logynn]

Does “coarse light” refer to future states we can see we want, but don’t have a corrected vessel to receive it yet? The future state doesn’t look right to us, because we’re still perceiving it through a lens of reception instead of bestowal, so the light seems “coarse”?
