  • Gabor,

    We are not monkeys, we are on the degree called speaking. The way the structure is organized, it’s called that there is always 10 Sefirot, not 9, not 11. It means in general and briefly that it’s always a complete structure. If you are born and arrive here, so you have desires for food, sex, family, honor, knowledge, power, etc in some unique combination.
    Your neighbor maybe more into power and you more into knowledge, etc but we all have all of these. More than that, we have been developing for more than just what we experience in this lifetime, and more than that, we are connected in an intricate system with all the others, as if all of humanity is one body and we are each a unique organ within that body.

    In short there is nothing preventing you from progressing, you made it here, now it is all about how much you can increase your desire for spirituality.

    Don,

    Everything in creation  is the Creator. He operates our reality through two general forces, you know about them, you’ve read about them all your life, in the beginning of the creation of the heaven (+) and earth (-).
    The (+) force we call bestowal, that is what emanates from the Creator and enlivens all of reality.

    And all of reality, creation itself  is a will to receive pleasure, a (-) force that manifests on four degrees: inanimate, vegetative, animate and speaking.

    Until now we are 100% controlled by that will to receive. Examine yourself and see and the more you can identify this the more you will be able to advance quicker, as it says the Lord is high and the low will see. Specifically when we can see that we are totally governed by Him in everything, he controls all of our desires, then we have a need for Him to give us a second nature, a nature of bestowal like He has.

    On the three preceding degrees: inanimate, vegetative, animate, they receive instinctually. On the fourth degree, our degree, we receive with the intention to receive for ourselves at the expense of others.  This is what separates our quality from that of the Creator.
    We will remain a desire to receive since His goal is to fill us with delight so we have to receive, however we need to receive with the intention that our reception will be to bring contentment to Him.

     

    So don’t worry we are not sinning now, we are 100% led by our desires. We need to be free of our desires, half way between bestowal and reception and there is the choice.

    So for us in our preparation stage we are like little kids, trying as much as we can to think that all we do should be for His sake and to try in our hearts to aim all of our life for His sake and along with the study and the practical work in the Kabbalistic group called a “10” that you’ll have the opportunity to work with in the future, you will develop towards this.

    Good luck,

    Rae,
    We have 1000s of names for the Light.  We call the Creator by many names all according to our changes.
    For example, someone calls you daughter and someone else calls you mom, another calls you friend, etc.   But you are you.
    In actuality, reality is just you and everything else is the Creator relating to you.
    The Creator’s attitude towards us is arranged in a very systematic  way so that we, the lower ones can climb from a lower to degree to a higher degree.
    We are advancing according to the surrounding light that is advancing us.
    When we will truly achieve the Torah, we will see that we take it above our egoistic calculation.  When we are immersed in the ego so much that we see how much we must have this light to reform us and without it we are unable to exit from this control of the ego.

    Scott,
    You wake up in the morning and you have some feeling in you and then your mind goes to work…how to deal with that feeling…so you think “c-o-f-f-e-e”.  Then “I’ll take a shower, then I’ll feel more awake.”
    We are desire.  And from there it rises to our thoughts and is clothed in words.
    So we can use this system and even prompt our desire.  Start formulating words, even mechanically.  Of course asking the Creator to help me be connected to the Him, to the friends, to the sources … it doesn’t change Him, but it slowly calibrates me to Him more and more, it starts directing my desire more and more.
    And when the desire does arise in me, in my heart as we say, as you wrote, so that itself is a prayer.  The desire of our heart is the prayer.  So speak to Him in your heart if it awakens and also use your mouth and your thoughts when you can as well.
    The main thing is we are working to calibrate ourselves to a bigger, integral reality, our spiritual nature, which we refer to as our second nature and to not stay all the time in our first, instinctual nature which is always focused on me, me & me.

    Sara,
    Our work is called the work of the Creator.
    Really, it means that He is doing the work.
    This is something that you will have to get used to and it takes some time, maybe a few weeks or months.
    How will the Creator get you to feel that you need Him?
    If you feel that you are able to correct the world and make things better, then why do you need Him?
    But if you did everything you can do (not less than that, you must do everything that is in your hands to do) and after all of that, you did not see success, then you have to turn to Him.
    You need to ask Him to finish the job.
    But what job?  Are you asking for Him to make your company successful?  So that is one thing.
    Are you asking Him to be with you in everything, whether it is raining or sunny, up or down, in or out, no matter what I want to be with You.
    And then soon you will feel that the changes in the world are like you changing your shirt.  You stay connected to Him all the time and the world around you goes through many changes as it advances.
    The most important is to speak to Him a lot, talk to Him, ask Him to be with you, to help you, to guide you.
    And then you go through everything in life with confidence, if it looks sunny or if it looks dark, He is with you, next to you, your best friend.  And meanwhile He is taking care of developing the entire world towards love and the world will go through many transformations that seem very confusing to our eyes until all the world comes to love one another.
    Patience,

    Holly,
    Our path is a path of natural development.
    Just like all natural paths of development.
    You can watch incredible shows on Netflix and Youtube about how our solar system was formed and how our planet came to be and then slowly how vegetation came to be as the first cells started to convert sunlight into energy and produce waste from that mixture, etc.
    We are continuing the natural progression.
    However, there is one major shift for us specifically.
    Until now everything went through changes over long periods of time.
    However with us, we now have developed hearts and minds and with these we can rise above the chains of normal cause and effect.
    We can do what nothing else can do, and that is reflect on the past as if looking into a mirror and seeing where are the flaws and how to better correct our future and therefore speed up our development, to literally go through months, years, lifetimes of development in very short periods of time and reach degrees of equivalence with the force of nature that is developing us and enlivening all of reality called the Life of Lives.
