In the beginning, one must believe above reason that the Creator wanted to do good to His creations. For this reason, He created His creations and installed in them the desire and yearning to receive pleasure. The reason is that this is the only Kli<\/em> [vessel] to receive pleasure, since man enjoys only that for which he yearns. He can receive something to which he does not yearn, but he cannot enjoy it because the Kli<\/em> for enjoyment is called \u201ccoveting,\u201d \u201cyearning,\u201d etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, this should be above reason, since when he looks within reason, he does not find His Providence over the world as benevolent. On the contrary, this is why it is said that we must believe above reason that this is so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But in truth, if His guidance is only in a manner of good and doing good, why is this not felt within reason? We learned that it is because of the correction of the bread of shame. Therefore, as long as the created beings have no vessels of bestowal, they cannot see light and remain in the dark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When one believes in the delight and pleasure that exists in above reason, he comes to consciously feel, to know the evil within him. That is, he believes that the Creator imparts such delight and pleasure, and although he sees all the good above reason, he achieves recognition. That is, he feels in all the organs the power of the evil that is found in receiving for oneself, which prevents him from receiving the abundance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It follows that faith above reason causes him to feel his enemy within reason\u2014who obstructs him from reaching the good. This is his standard. That is, to the extent that he believes in the delight and pleasure above reason, to that extent he can come to feel the recognition of evil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Later, sensing the bad yields the sensation of delight and pleasure, since the recognition of evil in the sensation of the organs causes him to correct the bad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is done primarily through prayer, when he asks the Creator to give everything in bestowal, called Dvekut<\/em> [adhesion]. Through these Kelim<\/em> [vessels], the goal will be revealed in open Providence, meaning that there will be no need for the concealment because there will already be Kelim<\/em> that are able to receive.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
