Tom,
We learned already many times and you need to review again that everything in reality develops according to the 4 degrees.  We learned in Kabbalah Revealed 1 about the 4 phases of direct light.  We also learned about Inanimate, Vegetative, Animate and Speaking.  And also within the speaking degree there are inanimate, vegetative, animate and speaking.  And everyone is required to come to this wonderous goal of uniting all of humanity as it says, They will all know me from the least to the greatest.  And also, My house will be a house of prayer for all nations, etc.
It is normal that when we start to study something so deep and wonderful that other things in our lives loose interest.
Nevertheless, we do not disregard the Inanimate, Vegetative and Animate degrees, not in the world and not in humanity.
You didn’t stop going to the grocery store or the gas station since you started studying kabbalah, so be a healthy son, brother, uncle, father, etc.
In the meantime, you are having a secret love affair with the Creator, you don’t need everyone around you to know all of your business.  You work, you cook, you hug, you speak, all normal things that people do.
Don’t worry about fixing everyone else now.
We are falling in a black hole of our own will to receive.  Let’s stabilize ourselves first.
We’ll learn how everything else happens later and we’ll see how the Creator will arrange every next degree for us.
Our work is in our correct attitude towards what he prepared for us.

Hi Abby,
Very natural and practical question.  The answer is in a clearer understanding of our situation.
Abby Smiles is not only this protein body that incarnated a few decades ago, but there is some desire at your root that has been turning through time, going through the transformation of form as your desire grows more and more.  And even more than that, each and every one is integrally connected to all of the others so just as a baby in the womb first some organs start to develop, then the limbs start to extend but with no fingers or toes and then another part and then back to this part and then back to that part and all of humanity is developing in the same way and we are all also one part of the body of humanity so all of our desires are connected with all of others we can say both in width, meaning across all of humanity and depth, meaning across time (our previous forms).
So you made it here, to a place where the authentic wisdom of kabbalah is being studied by students of a kabbalist (our teacher Rav Laitman) who received it from his teacher the great kabbalist (the Rabash), who received it from his teacher (Baal HaSulam) extending all the way back to the first revelation of this wisdom to humanity.  You made it 🙂

Hi Nicky,
I’m not familiar with the book.
And there are certainly people who attained some degree of spirituality in different ways.
Our unique situation is that we found here a pragmatic, system, a method for the masses of humanity, for all people to develop to the next degree.  As the vegetative developed to the animate and the animate evolved to our current state, now we are in a transition to the spiritual state.
Good to hear about your passion for the adventure we have embarked upon,

Yvon,
There are no quantities in spirituality.  All of these numbers that we come across in the books of kabbalah are measurements of qualities.
Our teacher Rav Laitman wrote like this, “Malchut, the created being, connecting with Zeir Anpin, the Creator, attains His six Sefirot, and is multiplied by the height of the discrepancy between them. The result is 600,000.

But the fact is that there is further division to reach the required quantity because everything depends on the resolution of our emotions, our awareness, connection, and mutual integration into each other.”

Here is an article from the giant kabbalist Baal HaSulam whom all of our method is based upon.
You’ll be able to glean something here.

John,
Here is a blog post by our teacher Rav Laitman that gives a good feeling for your answer.

Michael,
All of this is taking place before there is time and space.
We are learning it in a sequence in order to build a in us a structure of reality.
These four phases plus the root phase come from the 4 letter name tip of the Yud – Yud – Hay – Vav – Hay.
And after the four phases, there comes the partzufim, sefirot, the spiritual worlds and the degrees of the soul.  All of this comes from this same structure.

Think of the four phases like a line of computer code that just sits there until the last line which executes the code and runs it.  There is no phase 1 without the root phase and 2, 3, 4 after it.
I don’t relate to your questions because they are not really speaking about what is happening here.  Listen to the lesson again with this explanation.
As for “20%” this is only an example.  It could be 18% or 33%.
