Bill,
Now you need to reach the busha, the spiritual shame which causes the first retriction, then the building of the partzufim, the worlds and souls and then you’ll almost be ready!
Seth@KabUBill,
We are studying a method here. You will find details that you recognize in every natural science and you are free to study wherever your heart desires.
These initial semesters are to give a person a foundation in the wisdom of kabbalah. Similar to if you are going to be a heart surgeon or a brain surgeon. At some point in your study after familiarizing yourself with the body as a whole, if you want to be an expert, you will have to choose where you will put your focus. If you focus on the brain, you will not learn about the heart, you will learn things that are connected, but as you progress in your studies, you’ll decide if this path is suitable for you and then you’ll decide if you will become an expert, to attain the root of your soul and godliness that fills it.
Seth@KabUJoshua,
Wonderful question.
This is all of our work.
First we start learning about who we are, where we are and what is the nature of the forces operating on us.
That is what we are doing in these first several semesters.
After we have that foundation, we will start working together to reassemble this vessel.
🙂
Seth@KabUDyrk,
Yes, Ayn Sof is above the vessel. When we get to the vessel we already have some form, some boundary. Above that is Ayn Sof, without end.
Then after the cascading the Creator created a vessel that is suitable to receive everything that existed in Ayn Sof! How? That’s His business, but that is what we are learning that this is what happened.
You are in good company if you are confused. I’m more concerned with the person who says they understand everything. There are many more operations there will be the partzufim, the second tzimtzum, the worlds, the souls and the shattering and finally some material world at the end of the bottom of the lowest world of Assiyah.
Aviut is the coarseness of the vessel. The more that the vessel resembles the light, the more refined it is, the more the vessel acquires the quality of reception, it is called that it becomes more coarse, with more aviut.
Later, when the vessel is fully formed, called malchut of ayn sof, the vessel feels completely opposite from the Creator, it has become 100% reception, wonderful, it can receive all the light of the Creator, but it has problem it is 100% opposite from the Creator. What can the vessel do? She does not have anything of her own to bestow, so she stops receiving. That is called the first restriction, tzimtzum aleph. Then the vessel begins to let a small amount of light in, according only to what it can receive with the intention to bestow and it rejects the rest of the light. That membrane that rejects the light is called the masach.
Seth@KabUEliyahu,
Yes, it looks like the light is clothed on the degree of Nefesh first and then Ruach, Neshama, Chaya and Yechida.
But in this diagram Tony is not talking about Keter and Malchut, you are mixing two things here.
We didn’t get to the Rosh, Toch and Sof.
All of those things exist in here, but to study this correctly follow just the details we are studying it will be a much quicker and straightforward way to absorb the material.
This wisdom is infinite, at any moment you can bring up anything from anywhere, but we can’t advance like that in a systematic way.
