Niki,
The system is built on three lines, right, left and middle.
Without the left, the absence, the lack, we would not be able to feel the Creator.
If we are 100% fulfilled all the time, we are like a spark in the sun, there is no sense of self.
The more we grow, our left line grows, our lack, our desire, our force of minus.
Then we add our part which is called building the right line.  Through our efforts we draw lights that rise us to the next degree, that is called middle.
Repeat 🙂

Niklas,
I’m very happy for you.

This is what RABASH wrote about that state:
However, now that he sees that in the work of bestowal, the body has nothing to receive, the person stands before a dilemma: He can say that now he is in a state of descent, called “transgression.” At that time, he falls into despair and says that now he sees that the most important is to bestow, but he cannot work in order to bestow, therefore he must escape the campaign and return to at least enjoy the corporeal life. Or, he can say that when he began this work, all the actions were with the aim Lo Lishma. At that time the work was not against the will to receive, so the body did not object. But now that he has been rewarded with knowing about the existence of Lishma, called “working for the sake of the Creator,” the body should certainly object because it is against nature. So, how can we work for the sake of the Creator? The answer is that it is inherent in nature that the small can serve the great without any reward, since it feels great pleasure in serving it.

Beth,
You are correct.  Every thing we do in this world is reception.
This is similar to an animal.  It is not called good or bad.  It is all instinct, all the program of nature running.  It is not possible to reach satisfaction in this world because in order to enjoy anything, we first have to have a lack for that thing.
Kabbalah means “receiving”. The wisdom of kabbalah is the wisdom of how to receive endlessly, to be truly satisfied.

riverroad,
That is exactly what we are working on.  Baal HaSulam writes that this is possible for every person.
The answer to your second question can take a few thousand pages to answer and that has all been written already.  We will study the structure of the spiritual worlds later and we will see that a spark in the sun does not feel its existence.
The purpose of creation is to create a creature and fill it with fulfillment.
And we know that there is no pleasure without first there being a craving for that pleasure.  And if I crave something a little, then I enjoy it a little when I receive it.  If I crave it a lot, then I enjoy a lot when I receive.
We will open this more and more.

Eliyahu,
1.  We are in an interconnected system, just like the body.  The body can have a healthy liver and heart, but if there is a small splinter in the finger, the whole body has to stop and deal with the problem.  We cannot say that if I sit in the chair and concentrate on my studies more then all of the blows will stop.  It’s incorrect.  Sometimes I see that something that I thought was bad, it turned out to be good.
There is some confusion in your understanding.  Imagine that I am with friends enjoying the day but I don’t know that a tornado is coming.  So I feel good and I don’t see the bad.
Or maybe it is a beautiful day but already I feel that the tornado is coming so I can make a move before the tornado hits me.  We will start to understand this more and why these things happen too.

2. We have a few works in our preparation to the first spiritual degree. 1, we need to hear/read from the books of the kabbalists so that we can start to arrange our inner life not according to what the animal world shows us with the animal mind and heart but according to the upper perception.  2, we will learn together in the following courses how to work with those forces between us.

3.  Animal anxiety comes from uncertainty and fears.  When we approach the spiritual degrees, we understand where all of these forces are coming from, why and how.  Imagine the feeling of everyone in the world supporting you, caring for you and loving you.  Now imagine even more than that 🙂

Claudio,
The only thing that separates us from the Creator is our nature.
We are 100% to receive.
The Creator/spirituality is 100% to bestow.
