  • Hi Innocent Mushiya,
    There is the issue of quantity and there is the issue of quality.
    Right now we are swimming in a field of upper light.
    We are like a cat in the opera.  The opera is happening, the audience is in wonder, even crying at the beauty and we are the cat, sitting, not paying attention at all.
    How can that cat develop the mind and the heart?
    Within a few weeks your perception already begins to change somewhat as you start to understand what forces are operating on us, we always felt them, but like the cat we didn’t recognize them or have the language to name them and discuss them.
    To truly change the heart to be 100% to bestow like the Creator, it takes time.  Maybe 5 years, 10 years, 20 years, even 40 years depending on the root of the soul, depending on the generation, etc.

    Omoregie,
    This is a horrible situation.   Unfortunately there is no shortage of stories like this.
    We will be able to digest the answer little by little and the answer won’t enter in the ear, it will enter the soul.
    We will have to build a soul where the light of the Creator dwells and then we will feel the upper worlds and from there everything we feel will take on new meaning.
    For example, if there was a news company living in your belly, it could report on the wars between the acids and the foods that entered there.  Or in the blood how our immune system battles the germs that enter. But we don’t have a news agency in our belly or our blood and we barely relate to what happens inside of us, only, do I feel good now or do I not feel good now, everything below the mind and feeling is a special dance of the inanimate, vegetative and animate degrees.

    So let’s return to the story that you wrote about.  From here, we need to feel that the body of humanity is not healthy and we feel bad and this causes us to search for why and what we can do about it.
    Certainly by the time a boy walks into school with a gun, many many things happened already that lead to that moment.  And the lawyers that follow, it’s the same thing.  Can we imagine a child who grows up in a loving home, with good education about love for our fellow man and then this person grows up to be a lawyer who looks to profit off of tragedy?
    We need to explain to humanity that our good future will come from the good connection between all of us, it will take time, but we don’t have any choice if we want our future to be good for everyone.
    All of this is ahead of us.

    Wendi,
    What we perceive as the Big Bang is what we refer to as the moment when out of absence there appeared something.
    Later, after the first restriction and the building of the partzufim, sefirot, worlds then we will get to the shattering that you are referring to.  It’s all ahead of us.  All that we are learning now is all prior to the creation of matter, we are now learning the blueprint of creation, everything that happens in matter extends from this plan that we are learning now.

    Dyrk,
    Here’s a blog post from Rav’s blog that addresses your question.  Rav’s blog is a great resource.

    Question: Won’t humanity reach the recognition and the revelation as to how the world is arranged and how the different forces operating in it are arranged up until the very last moment of its evolution? Is it our eternal fate to live in such a mess, wars and outbursts of desires?

    Answer: There is no mess and no coincidence. We are in a very accurate, rigid, and deterministic system. Everything is arranged in a clear and accurate manner without any defects or flaws.

    There are no concepts such as “as if,” “suddenly,” or “approximately,” etc. The more we learn about nature according to different sciences, the more clearly the very accurate unchangeable laws are revealed to us. We divide and classify our knowledge in different fields, but, in fact, there are no different sciences like chemistry, physics, etc, in the world around us.

    It is only the unknown areas that have not been explored and studied as yet by which we can attempt to clarify things, but it is merely our perception that stems from ignorance. We simply cannot perceive the whole general picture.

    Still, if we delve deeper into this issue, we see that nothing in creation happens for no reason, suddenly, as if, or approximately. It is on our part that we see things that way as “one judges according to his own flaws.” If our mind could grasp and penetrate the depths of nature, we could see a magnificent system in which everything exists in perfection. We could actually see what Godliness is and that everything is related to everything on all levels from the top down. The natures of the still, vegetative, animate, and human beings are one in their spiritual and corporeal revelation, and by one movement of my arm, I can move and operate all the worlds. This is how it is all built. There is no event that can remain unfelt and not affect the whole system.

    Attila,
    All of reality is only the Creator.  Just as we learned about the 4 phases of direct light, the Creator is dressed in these 4 degrees in our world: Inanimate (still), Vegetative, Animate, Speaking (human).
    We are asking the Creator to feel that everything comes from Him and we want first to feel that and how can we also come to be bestowing like He is.

    Dyrk,
    What a lovely heartfelt question.
    If you are a father, you remember when you taught your children to walk, you move away from them in order for them to take their steps.
    But imagine if at that time they had the mind of a teenager and they could respond in languge, “Dad!!! Come back!!! Dad, what are you doing?  Don’t you care about me? Why are you going away from me?!”
    You of course know that in a few seconds your beloved child will take a step and you are stepping away out of love.  And it’s the sorrow of being a parent that we feel our children going through these states, but imagine the alternative, we carry our child around their whole life…well that would be worse, he or she would never develop.
    So you and I now have some special wisdom in our hands and you said that since you’ve come to the wisdom of kabbalah you feel more suffering.  So try and exercise.  Imagine that you (and me and all of us), as you are studying, are drawing surrounding lights on your soul and it is like the parent who is drawing his child forward.
    We feel a lot.  Let’s try to recognize what is going on.
    So there are two things here and you need to be careful with them.
    1. This world.  Do what you have to do in this world.  Work, family, health, etc.  If you feel bad because you aren’t dealing with your responsibilities in this world, so, like all other animals we have to live in this world.  Don’t confuse the two worlds.  Exercise, work, family.
    2.  Our new spiritual perception.  OK, regardless of the details in 1, I also am cultivating a new perception.  If I felt calm and everything was fine, then I would not search I would not take a step into a new spiritual realm.  So now I feel uncomfortable and it doesn’t matter to me if the feeling comes from my relationships or from the IRS or from the police or from the neighbor.  I feel uncomfortable and I start to recognize ahh, someone (the Creator) is sending this to me.  Ahhh, I see You!  You are doing this, you want me to pay attention to You.  Yesterday I felt this as suffering, today I deal with it, it still does not feel good, but I’m starting to recognize that You are directing me to take a step to develop, to understand You.

    As far as describing the emotions of the spiritual worlds, it’s impossible.  Baal HaSulam writes, how did the sages write, Abraham said to so and so, etc..
    How did the sages know what Abraham said, saw, etc.
    He explains that if one has been to London, one can describe the buildings the smells, etc and anyone who has been to London can recognize that.
    Similarly, anyone who attains the degree called Abraham sees and feels everything that is on the degree called Abraham.
