Initially, a person has an animalistic desire to receive and opposite this the spiritual light begins to shine a little. Gradually, within this desire, where there are aspirations for pleasure, money, honor, and knowledge, a desire for the light that influences it arises.

But why did the person previously also desire food, sex, money, honor, or knowledge? Because opposite each of these desires there is a light that compels a person toward it. Then a somewhat greater light begins to shine, one that is no longer clothed in anything in this world, and the person begins to awaken. This is what is termed spiritual. After all, to receive the light without such clothing, one already needs a screen and reflected light, an intention to bestow.

And each time, the stronger the light, the more coarse and therefore stronger desire it awakens in a person. The desires become increasingly greater, and in this way the person awakens until he begins to desire spirituality more than corporeality. Here arise states of the spies where the light alternately illuminates one moment and then withdraws. When the light influences a person, he is drawn toward spirituality, but when the influence of the light weakens, he falls into material desires.

By making efforts, a person accelerates this process and eventually begins to desire spirituality more than anything else. This is called: “I am sick with love.” This state arises through the influence of the light, which constantly plays with a person: shining a little more, a little less, entering and exiting, as it is said: “The Torah shall go forth from Zion.”

After a person passes the Machsom, states continue to alternate within him thanks to the light that comes, the light of the Torah, which influences him to a greater or lesser degree. Then sensations awaken within him of how opposite the left line is to the right line, that is, to Divinity.

This awakens shame and all sorts of other sensations within him, and he decides that he does not want to remain in the left line. Through such ascents and descents, the desire for correction and advancement is constantly awakened within him.

When the desire to correct himself appears in him, the correction itself also comes: the light of the Torah in the form of the light of AB-SAG. The person is clear about which qualities he wants to correct, what exactly he is asking for, and to what extent. This is a raising of MAN, when he himself participates together with the Creator in his own correction. These are already high spiritual degrees. And then he moves from Lo Lishma to Lishma, from for one’s own sake to for the sake of the Creator.

A person uses the left line; he knows the deficiencies, sets holiness against them, and sees one opposite the other, the Klipa against holiness. He arouses the correcting light concealed in the Torah and uses it as the light of AB-SAG for the sake of correction. Then, in practice, he proceeds to receive in order to bestow, which brings him to the goal, to adhesion.

From the Daily Kabbalah Lesson 8/30/26, Rabash, “What Is, ‘He Who Is Without Sons,’ in the Work?”

Question: What is an “eternal action”?

Answer: An action that exists in the spiritual world is called eternal. In the material world, all our actions leave no memory behind. They bring no benefit and produce no result.

It is simply astonishing how a person wants to preserve what he has done, what he has achieved, and what he has invested in. He wants something to remain after him, and he does not understand that these things have no value in relation to eternity.

In spirituality, however, it is the opposite. Although initially the desire to receive is uncorrected, you correct it and fill it with light and thereby build a Partzuf, a spiritual object, and this remains.

Later, the Partzuf is purified as it ascends to ever higher degrees, but the acquired screen remains forever. In this way, you build your Kelim (vessels). Each time, you move from the last Kli in which you find yourself to a new one, while the others remain behind you like links in a chain that you have brought into being.

There is nothing like this in the material world, because matter merely changes its form, while the previous form disappears without a trace.

Question: How can I hear from the environment about the importance of the goal if the friends do not talk about it?

Answer: First of all, we need to talk about it; everyone is obliged to say a few words about it here and there. But the main thing is the example. You should try to make the friends see through your actions that you perform them because the goal is important to you, and it is precisely the goal that motivates you to act.

Suppose we have initiated a project and must work within its framework. The video production department presented me with a work plan for the coming month, which no other department did. Even the kitchen did not provide me with a plan of what they want to “fill” us with.

But the video production department presented a clear plan tied to specific dates and planned events. It is evident that the people are involved in the overall dissemination, and this gives me a strong sense of the importance of this department. I see that they truly have a special awareness of the importance of the goal.

Yet beyond such commendable actions, even beyond a detailed plan, they must show why they are doing this. They are doing it because they want to attain spirituality, something higher, and want to ascend. And this is what they must show me.

In the same way, in every action a person performs, one must demonstrate one’s intention to those around them, and then that intention will return to them multiplied several times over.

From the Daily Kabbalah Lesson 8/18/26, Rabash, “What Are ‘Blessing’ and ‘Curse’ in the Work?”

Comment: You keep talking about the obligation to promote the greatness of the Creator and the purpose of creation.

My Response: It is not I who say this but Baal HaSulam, who wrote that we must open schools and disseminate the knowledge about the Creator.

We are ready for this because the great sages determined that we are in the generation of the Messiah, a generation obligated to reveal this general force to everyone. The whole world must reveal spirituality and live at the level at which it should be according to its inner preparation. We do not pull humanity toward something it is not yet ready for.

The magnitude of the sufferings that are now being revealed in the world speaks for itself. It indicates that the world ought to be at a different stage. The measure of suffering is our lagging behind; it is the difference between where we are and where we should be. Suppose you are on the fifth level and should be on the tenth, this difference of five levels by which you are lagging behind presses upon you and gives you a sensation of suffering.

The point is that the surrounding light comes to you as suffering, since a part of it should already enter your relatively corrected Kli as inner light.

But we should already be in a completely different state. If, in accordance with how the Reshimot awaken in you, you reduce the difference between the lower and upper degrees, then you are always in joy, in inspiration. Each time evil is revealed in you, you perceive it as beneficial.

Both with regard to the individual and the general, the world must follow this same path. But if we are failing, if the world experiences only continuous suffering and dreams of how to disconnect from this life with the help of drugs, this indicates how far behind we are.

If this is the case, then there is no other possibility but to reveal the method of correction to the world, as this is the method of correcting its state. This does not mean that one must correct some souls, something abstract. Correct your life! What does “correct” mean? Fill your life with pleasure, this is what you bring to the world. A very simple method, a very simple goal.

Why is the world not ready for this? From the side of sufferings it is ready, but from the side of awareness, it is not. It is precisely here that we must help it. Therefore, Baal HaSulam writes that schools must be opened and knowledge disseminated among the people throughout the whole world.
