During the preparation period, a person can qualify himself in all the matters, meaning both on the right and on the left. In other words, he has ways by which to achieve the goal, and he has ways by which he already achieved the goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The final wholeness is for one to receive all the pleasures of the King because such was the King\u2019s will. That is, the only reason he enjoys in this world is because of the King\u2019s commandment. This is called \u201creceiving in order to bestow.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The material for work on becoming accustomed is the Torah and Mitzvot<\/em> [commandments] and the pleasure of Shabbat [Sabbath] and so forth. Also, all the blessings for pleasures is precisely in this way, meaning reception in order to bestow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There are many discernments about this: There are people who enjoy plentifully in order to be able to bless and thank the Creator for giving us the pleasures, as from the perspective of the Giver, it is certainly good and mercy. But if the receiver does not derive benefit from the pleasures he receives\u2026 but it cannot be said that He is giving him money and he is not buying with the money things that are harmful to him\u2014for then there should not be gratitude for the gift\u2014since the intention of the Giver was certainly to benefit him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Therefore, this is similar to a person whose father died and left him an inheritance. For the death he says, \u201ctrue judge,\u201d and for the inheritance he says, \u201cgood and does good.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Likewise, about the lower one becoming materialized, he should say, \u201ctrue judge,\u201d since before one repents, reception of pleasures separates him from the Life of Lives, so in regard to death we say \u201ctrue judge.\u201d But over the Giver of the gift, meaning over the pleasures that the Creator has given him, he should say \u201cgood and does good.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n But since it is forbidden to sort on Shabbat, on Shabbat there is no work on the purification of the body. Rather, the work is mainly on The Good Who Does Good. The Good Who Does Good is measured by the size of the inheritance, meaning by the measure of delight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Conversely, on weekdays, the time of the work of sorting, we must remember that we should say \u201ctrue judge.\u201d Hence, many people are not looking forward to the inheritance of their fathers because it is hard for them to tolerate the death of the body. For this reason, they choose the least bad and are not enjoying this world, but only as much as is necessary, and necessity is neither praised nor condemned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But according to Baal HaSulam, diminishing the pleasures of the body does not yield any crops, since \u201cRevenue comes by the strength of the ox,\u201d meaning that specifically by regretting that he has become separated from the Creator and wanting to be adhered, precisely this way yields the desired wholeness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the end, we mainly give the praises and gratitude to the King and not the weeping, for it is written, \u201cStrength and joy are in His place.\u201d In other words, one who works in the way of truth and stands in the place of the Creator feels only strength and joy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" July 22, 1956, Jerusalem During the preparation period, a person can qualify himself in all the matters, meaning both on […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":6246,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"topic":[26],"class_list":["post-12254","book","type-book","status-publish","hentry","topic-rabash"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
