Accelerating the Reshimot (Recollections)

How should I react to the emotions that awaken in me as a result of the Creator?

The Creator doesn't change. I change according to the Reshimot which change me. The only thing that I can do is to make efforts as the Reshimot arise. When I exert, I begin to see the Reshimot in me that develop as desirable because I understand that actually I am developing.

I understand that the process isn't simple, since like in all developments, one needs to make efforts. And what is that effort?  The effort is to be integrated in the group!  Only though the group do I begin to recognize the importance of my development.  The group raises in me the importance of the goal and thus I receive strength to suffer the development.

If the goal is important to me, I will be prepared for attainment despite the  body that is suffering.  The Reshimo that awakens in me is the same new state that awakens suffering in me. But if I am included in the general desire of the group, it will be easier for me to accelerate my development.

Daily Kabbalah Definition

Definitions in the daily Kabbalah lesson guide a precise, spiritual approach to terms, & disqualify materialized corporeal definitions

 

Contribution

What is "contribution" and what does it means that the Creator "speaks between the cherubs"?

"Contribution" is the main spiritual action of the Three Lines, coupling of the third line between the "right" and "left" lines, and to the extent that each one does this, then in each of these actions we stabilize the mutual Kli of our soul. And then the result is complete work in order to receive for the sake of bestowal. This means that we assemble the general soul through each and everyone, through each and every desire, trying to transform the intention of "for the sake of receiving" that is revealed to me, into the intention of "for the sake of bestowal." Then the Creator "speaks between the cherubs," between those who are ready to sacrifice, to be sacrificed to the middle line, from the right side of it and also from the left side of it.

This mean that we build our general soul by each one giving a "contribution," contributing to the Creator, raising the Creator above the created beings, raising the attribute of bestowal above the attribute of receiving.
