And without annulling self-love, it is impossible to achieve&nbsp;<em>Dvekut<\/em>&nbsp;[adhesion)] with the Creator, meaning equivalence of form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And since it is against our nature, we need a society that will form a great force so we can work together on annulling the will to receive, called \u201cevil,\u201d as it hinders the achievement of the goal for which man was created.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For this reason, the society must consist of individuals who unanimously agree that they must achieve it. Then, all the individuals become one great force, where one can fight against oneself, since each one is incorporated in everyone else. Thus, each person is founded on a great desire to achieve the goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To be integrated in one another, each person should annul himself before the others. This is done by each seeing the friends\u2019 merits and not their faults. But one who thinks that he is a little higher than his friends can no longer unite with them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, it is important to remain serious during the assembly so as not to lose the intention, as it is for this aim that they have gathered. And to walk humbly, which is a great thing, one should be accustomed to appear as though one is not serious. But in truth, a fire burns in their hearts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yet, to small people, during the assembly one should be wary of following words and deeds that do not yield the goal of the gathering\u2014that thus they should achieve&nbsp;<em>Dvekut<\/em>&nbsp;with the Creator. And concerning&nbsp;<em>Dvekut<\/em>, see the essay, \u201cMatan Torah.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But when one is not with one\u2019s friends, it is best to show nothing of the intent in one\u2019s heart and appear to be like everyone else. This is the meaning of \u201cwalk humbly with the Lord your God.\u201d While there are higher interpretations of that, the simple explanation is also a great thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hence, it is good that there will be equality among the friends who unite, so one can be annulled before the other. And there should be careful watch in the society, disallowing frivolity, since frivolity ruins everything. But as we have said above, this should be an internal matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But when there is someone who is not from this society, no seriousness should be shown, but to equalize externally with the person who has just come in. In other words, avoid speaking of serious matters, but only of things that suit the one who has just entered, who is called \u201can uninvited guest.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Article No. 1, Part 2, 1984 Since man is created with a&nbsp;Kli&nbsp;called \u201cself-love,\u201d where one does not see that an [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":6243,"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-9176","book","type-book","status-publish","hentry","topic-rabash"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Kabbalah | Purpose of Society - 2<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"&quot;Purpose of Society - 2&quot;
