We will find that our chances to enter the spiritual are rapidly dimming. But it is at that precise stage when we feel our inability to cope with the obstructions that indicates an impressive progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If we only stop for a moment, we will see that we are in fact advancing more rapidly. However, we are trying to measure our progress with senses that are just beginning to evolve. Any correction and change that we perform brings us closer to acquiring the aim to bestow. But for that we need to go through a great many changes. We must discover what our \u201cself\u201d really is and what it wants from us, what &#8220;the will to receive&#8221; means, the discover of the substance of Creation, and the meaning of life and death.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We come to the conclusion that life means feeling the Light, and death is the sensation of darkness, the absence of the sensation of the Creator. We go through many different situations until we know the true meaning of &#8220;good&#8221; and &#8220;bad&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A barrier is a curtain that hides the Light from our world. How is the barrier different to the screen? The nature of the screen is completely different than that of a barrier, in that the entire Light stands before the screen and nothing hides it but man, who rejects it with the power of his desire to not receive for self-gratification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The barrier, unlike the screen, stands outside us, covering the Upper Light. The screen is something we erect inside us from our understanding and consciousness of the desire to resist the egoistic reception of the Light, prevent it from entering us in an egoistic form. If we do let the Light in, we want our objective to be to give to the Creator. When there is a screen, there is no need for the curtain, because the screen can resist the Light.<a><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">THE DIVISION OF THE 125 DEGREES THAT CONSTITUTE OUR WAY<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>There are 125 degrees of attainment between our world and the world&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Ein Sof<\/em>. But all we need for our correction is to reach the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Atzilut<\/em>, meaning the end of the Second Restriction. We have to cross the worlds of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Assiya<\/em>,&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Yetzira&nbsp;<\/em>and&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Beria<\/em>, each consisting of 2,000 years (states, degrees). Thus, the sum total of the corrections we have to go through is 6,000, after which we enter the corrections that belong to the First Restriction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our soul consists of five parts:&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Keter, Hochma, Bina, Zeir Anpin<\/em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>. They are divided by the intensity of their will to receive, and form two groups:&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Galgalta&nbsp;<\/em>and&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Eynaim&nbsp;<\/em><em>(Keter<\/em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Hochma<\/em>), and&nbsp;<em>Awzen, Hotem, Peh (B<\/em><em>ina<\/em>,&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Zeir Anpin<\/em>, and&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>).&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Keter<\/em>&nbsp;is called&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Galgalta<\/em>&nbsp;(skull),&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Hochma<\/em>(wisdom) is called&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Eynaim<\/em>&nbsp;(eyes),&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Bina&nbsp;<\/em>(intelligence) is called&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Awzen<\/em>,&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Zeir Anpin<\/em>&nbsp;is called&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Hotem<\/em>(nose), and&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;(kingship) is called&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Peh<\/em>&nbsp;(mouth). The structure of all souls is identical: the first part of the soul enjoys giving, while the second enjoys receiving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We should only concern ourselves with correcting our&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Galgalta<\/em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Eynaim (<\/em><em>GE<\/em>), our vessels of bestowal, the desires to give. Our spiritual path begins with an ascent above our world. An ascent is a gradual correction of our&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Galgalta&nbsp;<\/em>and&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Eynaim.&nbsp;<\/em>By ascending to the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Atzilut,&nbsp;<\/em>we confirm that our vessels of bestowal are corrected. We cannot correct our vessels of reception.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So what can we do? We can gradually raise our vessels of reception&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>(AHP<\/em>) from the worlds of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>BYA<\/em>&nbsp;to the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Atzilut<\/em>. We first raise the&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>AHP<\/em>&nbsp;from the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Beria<\/em>, which is the&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>AHP<\/em>&nbsp;with the least amount of egoism. After that we raise the&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>AHP<\/em>&nbsp;from the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Yetzira,&nbsp;<\/em>which are more egoistic, and finally we raise the&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>AHP<\/em>&nbsp;from the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Assiya<\/em>, the most egoistic of all vessels. We don\u2019t actually correct the vessel\/desires, only connect them with their corresponding&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>GE<\/em>, and combine them with the altruistic desires.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After every correction we receive more Light. The correction is called an \u201cascent.\u201d There is an ascent from each of the places of the worlds of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Beria, Yetzira,&nbsp;<\/em>and&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Assiya.<\/em>&nbsp;The&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>AHP<\/em>&nbsp;that rise to the world of&nbsp;<em>Atzilut<\/em>&nbsp;are not &#8220;real&#8221; desires to receive (vessels of reception), they are not our \u201cself,\u201d our \u201cstony heart.\u201d We are incapable of correcting that part. The only part we can correct is a small portion called&nbsp;<em>AHP de Aliyah&nbsp;<\/em>(raised&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>AHP<\/em>). But no greater correction is needed. As soon as this correction is made, the Creator Himself will correct the stony heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In order for us to know what we must correct, we have to see and feel what it is that needs correction. For that there are ascents and descents that do not depend on us called &#8220;an awakening from Above.\u201d These are the holidays, the Shabbat (Saturday, the seventh day of the week) and the beginnings of the month. They are given to us only because we have already corrected our vessels of bestowal, want nothing for ourselves, and are already in the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Atzilut.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first act \u2013 the ascent \u2013 will be the joining of the&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>AHP de Aliyah&nbsp;<\/em>of the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Beria<\/em>; the second will occur by adding the&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>AHP<\/em>&nbsp;of the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Yetzira<\/em>, and the third will be the adding of the&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>AHP<\/em>&nbsp;of the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Assiya<\/em>. When a person has already climbed these three degrees, the stony heart is corrected, constituting the End of Correction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We can feel pleasure from receiving or from giving. The pleasure from giving is felt in the vessels of bestowal while the pleasure from receiving is felt in the vessels of reception. But both types of vessels are corrupted in us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The easiest to correct are the vessels of bestowal. We correct these by giving not for our own pleasure, but to please the receiver. Those vessels are easier to correct because the act (giving) and the purpose (for another) are in the same direction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The vessels of reception allow us to enjoy only when we receive. They are much more difficult to correct because we have to please another by receiving. This demands a much tighter connection with Creator because receiving runs through the core of the \u201cself,\u201d the human ego.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For that reason, the&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>AHP<\/em>&nbsp;are corrected gradually, following the correction of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Galgalta&nbsp;<\/em>and&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Eynaim.<\/em>Thus, it is not as difficult to ascend to the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Atzilut<\/em>&nbsp;with vessels of corrected&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>GE,<\/em>&nbsp;as it is to add the&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>AHP<\/em>&nbsp;to them, because the correction of the&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>AHP<\/em>&nbsp;contradicts the aim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All five worlds are like curtains that hiding the Light of the Creator. The lower the world, the more it covers the Light. The worlds\/screens end at the barrier, which hides the Light completely from our world. Only a tiny spark called \u201cMinute Light\u201d enters our world. It is just enough to sustain life on earth. The Creator made it so we can live without a screen. In the absence of Light and having only a minute OF Light, there is no necessity for a screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That feeble Light is divided to many particles. It turns the atoms, moves the molecules, creates every substance, and urges it towards development and growth. It revives every degree of existence, the still, vegetative, animate and speaking \u2013 our own degree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And if we acquire a screen over even the smallest will to receive, through our studies, our groups, and our teachers &#8211; a screen over root coarseness &#8211; then we are already able to resist the dimmest Light \u2013 the Light of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Nefesh<\/em>, that however small, it is still far greater than the \u201cMinute Light.\u201d At that point we are able to stay in that Light without receiving it for ourselves. The screen, in that case, functions like the barrier &#8211; the transition from this world to the spiritual world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example: if a person has been taught not to steal and someone puts a $100 bill before us, we will not steal it. But the minute we face the temptation of a larger sum than the sum we\u2019d been taught not to steal, we will not be able to resist; all our previous education will be insufficient to resist that amount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The same applies to spirituality: where there is the Light of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Nefesh<\/em>, we work for the Creator without any difficulty, feel Him, maintain contact with Him and enjoy ourselves because we want to please Him. We have a sufficient screen for this degree that protects us from receiving for ourselves. That state is called &#8220;the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Assiya&#8221;<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, as a result of our studies and the additional efforts we make, we acquire a screen over a greater measure of egoism, that of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Aviut Aleph<\/em>&nbsp;(first degree coarseness) and can now receive the Light of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Ruach<\/em>&nbsp;in order to bestow. Accordingly, we have protection against stealing a larger sum of money, say $1000. In such a case, we pass from the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Assiya&nbsp;<\/em>to the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Yetzira<\/em>. In the same way, when acquiring a screen for second degree of coarseness, we ascend from&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Yetzira&nbsp;<\/em>to&nbsp;<em>Beria<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By passing from one world to the next, the curtain falls off the previous world and instead we place over it a screen that suits the coarseness of that world. The screen that covered the higher world moves into the vessels and the higher world appears. When that happens, we are able to keep the law of the world we are in, and therefore do not need the law. We rise above it and keep it of our own conscious will.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since our soul consists of five parts, we must acquire five separate screens in ascending degrees of power, according to the coarseness of the egoism. We cross the barrier when we acquire a screen of root coarseness and attain the spiritual degree of the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Assiya<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A screen for first degree coarseness raises us to the degree of the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Yetzira<\/em>. A screen for second degree coarseness raises us to the degree of the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Beria<\/em>. A screen for third degree coarseness raises us to the degree of the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Atzilut<\/em>. And finally, a screen for fourth degree coarseness raises us to the degree of the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Adam Kadmon<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Above&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Adam Kadmon,&nbsp;<\/em>the soul ascends to the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Ein Sof<\/em>. There are five&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Partzufim<\/em>&nbsp;in every world, comprised of five&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Sefirot<\/em>. Each time a person acquires five new&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Sefirot<\/em>, he acquires a new degree, a new&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Partzuf<\/em>. If it is in the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Assiya<\/em>, the first five&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Sefirot&nbsp;<\/em>give us the ability to attain the&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Partzuf&nbsp;<\/em>of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Malchut&nbsp;<\/em>of the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Assiya<\/em>. The next five&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Sefirot<\/em>&nbsp;raise us to&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Partzuf Zeir Anpin<\/em>&nbsp;of the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Assiya<\/em>. Five more&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Sefirot&nbsp;<\/em>and we come to&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Partzuf Bina<\/em>&nbsp;of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Assiya<\/em>, five more and we are in&nbsp;<em>Partzuf Hochma&nbsp;<\/em>of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Assiya<\/em>, and the last five&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Sefirot&nbsp;<\/em>render us&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Partzuf Keter&nbsp;<\/em>of the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Assiya<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this way, the soul acquires the screens in the root coarseness of the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Assiya&nbsp;<\/em>and goes over to the first screen of the first screen of the first degree of coarseness of the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Yetzira<\/em>. The soul continues this way until it crosses all the worlds and all 125 degrees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When we are in the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Assiya&nbsp;<\/em>with our root coarseness, our soul evolves through a number of degrees like a fetus in its mother\u2019s womb&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>(Bina<\/em>). The conception lasts nine months, the same time it takes for a woman in our world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The birth of the soul is the transition from root to first degree coarseness, from the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Assiya&nbsp;<\/em>to the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Yetzira<\/em>, which corresponds to the birth of a baby in our world. In the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Beria,<\/em>&nbsp;the soul evolves and receives Light that gradually increases its screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But in the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Beria,<\/em>&nbsp;the soul is still in a state of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Katnut<\/em>&nbsp;(meaning it only has vessels of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>GE<\/em>). Beyond the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Atzilut&nbsp;<\/em>begins the gradual process of the growth of the soul, the acquisition of the vessels of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>AHP<\/em>. Growth continues until the age of thirteen, the&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Bar Mitzvah<\/em>&nbsp;age. At this stage the soul becomes independent in&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Atzilut<\/em>, and has the screens with which it can commence receiving in order to bestow by adding the vessels of reception denominated&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>AHP de Aliyah<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are two&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Partzufim<\/em>&nbsp;called&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Zeir Anpin&nbsp;<\/em>and&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Nukva&nbsp;<\/em><em>(Malchut<\/em>) in the world of&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Atzilut<\/em>. They relate to one another in various ways, depending on the situation of the soul&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>(Katnut&nbsp;<\/em>or&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Gadlut<\/em>). These states are called&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Zivug&nbsp;<\/em>(spiritual mating).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The term,&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Eretz<\/em>&nbsp;(land) in the spiritual world refers to where you are or the place you are headed. The word,&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Eretz<\/em>&nbsp;comes from word&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Ratzon&nbsp;<\/em>(desire). Our soul consists of one big desire&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>(Eretz<\/em>) with many smaller &#8220;lands&#8221; inside them. There are desires called the \u201cnations of the world\u201d or \u201cabroad\u201d and there is the Land of Israel, which is the closest desire to the Creator. The neighbors of this&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Eretz<\/em>&nbsp;\u2013 Jordan, Egypt and Syria-want the Land of Israel because that is where the Creator can be found.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The correction process begins with the finest desires, called \u201cIsrael\u201d or&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Galgalta&nbsp;<\/em>and&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>Eynaim<\/em>. On the one hand, they are the closest desires to the Creator, but on the other, they are the farthest. This is because of the law of the oppositeness between Lights and vessels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For us to return to the Creator, we must be the greatest egoist, because we must feel that there is something very important missing in our lives. On the one hand, egoistic vessels are far from the Creator, but on the other hand, when we invert our intentions, we will become the closest to Him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When we begin to study Kabbalah, we slowly learn to sort out our desires in order of coarseness. When the sorting is done, we determine which of our desires we can begin to correct. When we begin the work with our desires, we begin to see where we are on the spiritual map.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We might be amazed to find along our spiritual path
