  • Julia,
    We don’t leave our children alone next to a big motor.
    Even more so, if we were before the power of Creator, and this is why there is a shell that protects us until we are prepared.  This is the klipot.

    To the degree that one advances and attempts to become similar to the Creator, then his properties light up.  They are called Sefirot.

    Sara,
    First of all the Creator wants to fill us with pleasure.
    Because of that He needed to create a creature who wants to receive pleasure.
    That is us.  We and all of creation are a desire to receive pleasure, all of us desiring on different degrees.  Some desire rest, some desire power, some desire shelter, some desire riches.

    But there is a problem.
    When we receive, we are receivers and the Creator, who is giving, is a giver.
    We don’t have any experience knowing who He is, how He is, what are His qualities of a giver, what it means to give, to love, what does it mean to love eternally.  We don’t know.
    Every time we receive, we are opposite from Him.

    So next comes the correction of creation.
    We learn to love.
    BUT, we have to receive, because He made us to receive.
    So we agree that we will only receive because we love Him and we want Him to be happy.
    And that’s it.

    And what can we do to make Him happy?
    Only to love one another.

    Molly,
    You have a good attitude.  A kabbalist does not just blindly believe.
    So it is good to have these questions and doubts, but as you resolve the doubts, you need to accept your new reality even though the people around you in your neighborhood and workplaced didn’t reach this same realization and attainment.

    We don’t understand why the Creator chose you and me and not two others.  This is something we don’t know.

    However with the heart and mind that He did give us we can start to see what system we are in, what are the forces operating in this system and what can we do?

    You are also correct that the spiritual attainment is not something that a person can do on his own, this is something that comes directly from the Creator.
    We receive the method from our teacher who reached what we want to reach and he received it from his teacher in an unbroken chain for thousands of years.
    Go slowly.  Take good notes in your notebook with pens and paper start to see what you are learning.
    Your soul will teach you.

    Miho,
    Yes.

    Thomas,
    If one studies nature accurately he will see such gradations.
    You are speaking like a kabbalist.
    You say, I have this I don’t have that but still I made it here.
    So then you need to begin to understand who you are and where you are.
    You as a small link in a long chain stretching back thousands of generations and in our own generation, we are tied to all of the others, our clothes from Asia, our produce from California, our car assembled in Mexico, our entire life, everything we do even in our thoughts and emotions is tied to all of the others.

    Julia,

    Great question.
    You are correct.  The creature will always be a will to receive.
    However through planting himself in an environment that values bestowal, he can correct himself so that he receives (because he must), but instead of receiving for the sake of his ego, he receives because he wants to give pleasure to Creator who only wants to give.
