    Thank you Gianni, this is helpful. I feel I am getting an inner image of what this difference between male and female root.  I wish to understand it deeper, to aim the more prescisely, and see where I might be flawed in my perception. Are there any further ressources on that? (I have a book on women in Kabbalah, and read the blog, and listened to New life sessions… but is there anything else). What is striking me is that women actually adapt to the men´s work, supporting them, but they don´t relate to their root specifically. Like in that example of raising girls and boys… if done in an integral way, they owuld need different surroundings. Then how can the women´s work be copied from the men´s work , if nature has designed us in a way that male and female are complementing and not the same.

    Hi Gianni, I am currently reading the book the Psychology of the integral Society. Two questions on that:

    1) Which was the intention of this book? Some of it reads like a practical guideline, some a bit like a utopia. So, how to study it correctly?

    2) In this book, but also from other ressources it’s mentioned that women would lack the opportunity to unite ;(Topic Boys and Girls, pg 222 and fillows in the softcover book). Which is why this approach in the book is considered to be primarily for boys and men… and there is only a little notion that for girls it might need a different programme. What is the source leading to this assumption and how should I relate to it as a woman?  In this book  it’s clearly not about the feminine or male sides of each human. Now, does this mean that BB states women due to their genetic code are unable to unite anyways?  How shall I justify my work then… being a woman? Do women have a different way to reach bestowal, if they are already considered unable to unite, or is it time to pack up then?

    Hi Gianni, there was an andwer from Rav saying „M. Laitman: That is, from the worst possible state that we are in, if we are able to connect with the Creator, then it can become the best possible state, the most beneficial, the strongest one because from the lowest state, I connect to the Creator who is the highest.“

    How is „lowest“ perceived? Is it a matter of distance from the creator? Of feeling separated?

    What is the right prayer to ask in terms of helping the ten develop? I understand we thrive to connect more and more, to learn to bestow, to learn to bring contentment to the creator. But how do I turn this to the creator? And does it actually make sense to ask as an indivual or does this prayer have to come from a deep deficiency of all the ten members to be heard at all?

    Hi Gianni, I understand that as we progress, the desires become coarser, the amplitude of decents and ascents higher, and at the same time we thrive for more and more connection, annulling before the friends more and more. I can relate to it if I think of it including the physical aspects of life. With respect to a virtual environment, where and how does this increasing coarseness show? And are there limits to virtual tens in terms of perceiving this coarseness or can this work all be done in this virtual realm with some exeptions of attending congresses physically?

    Hi Gianni, just re-posting this (I think the question might have been missed, or it was to lengthy, so I shortened it).  I am still wondering about this: it relates to Shamati 184 … about faith and the mind.

    1. In Art 184 it says that faith is related to separation, because it is related to corporeality. Does that refer to the fact that faith is something we feel in our bodies as sensations or states, and as states in a human beings come and go, so does faith? And does that mean it is impossible to have persistent faith?

    2. Is this why we get moved through ascends and descends all the time… because faith is naturally non-persistent?

    3. Does that mean if we aim at faith above reason, itÅ› by nature, that we will have to rebuild this again and again?

    THANK YOU 🙂
