“How do we make sure that we draw the reforming light with every action of ours?”
I do everything during my week to fill in all the necessities to create my ability to be there for my friends. And I do nothing more for myself. Among my friends, I show myself if I see I am building a connection with appearing. I hide myself if only my ego will be there. I make myself small to listen and draw the reforming light. I make myself big to build dvekut. I make myself small to listen to your worlds, my dear friends.
“This is the meaning of what is written about Elisha: ‘So he departed thence, and found Elisha the son of Shaphat, who was plowing with twelve yoke of oxen before him, and he with the twelfth; and Elijah passed over unto him, and cast his mantle upon him’ (Kings 1, 19). (Yoke means a pair of Bakar (oxen), since they were plowing with pairs of oxen together that were tightened. This is called a yoke.) Baker means Bikoret (criticism), and twelve refers to the completeness of the degree (like twelve months and twelve hours).”
I chose this excerpt that tells me and practically shows me how to allow all criticism into me to cry honestly and turn the sadness into happiness by seeing the reason, the part that needs correction in me. Therefore I immediately justify the Creator. I am also happy to see the criticism and judgment rising to a complete level when those two are just going in circles. I use this explanation quoted as my understanding that makes the faith below reason to within reason. Then often I see the actual reason for the criticism and judgment with the help of a prayer. These revelations build the faith above reason = One can be happy of getting criticism and judgment from the Creator and can correct them by prayer. Man can do this even with judgments made in the past. Like walking with 12 oxen wearing a fur mantel.
“Now we can understand the argument of Jacob and Esau. Esau said, ‘I have enough’, and Jacob said, ‘I have everything,’ meaning ‘two rows, six in a row,’ meaning within reason and above reason, which is the will to receive and the Light of Dvekut (Adhesion).”
The two together.

My impressions: I see the dedication to the goal. He wants to help the world by relaying the message without altering it. I want to help.
How to make myself a RAV:
I want to be a Rav, meaning I want to give light to my friends. To give light I need to receive light myself first. I have decided that this method is the way to spirituality. I am not seeking any more proof or knowledge but listening to my Rav who aims me toward the light.
Article 1:
1. Fear of God
2. Branches like roots
3. Build the vessel of delight
Article 2:
1. Achieve Dvekut
2. Seeing the merits of the Friends
3. Appear like everyone else outside
The whole world was created for me = I is the whole of MAN = the fear of God = to be happy by call his Name = help him delight His creations = delight friends by me = delight myself
Branches are from roots = THE root at the end / beginning is bestowal = Creator needs nothing = MAN feels shame and pain being a receiver.
To cancel the feeling of shame World was created to conceal the Light. MAN should not crave self-love but crave the vessel for delight = fear of god.
