Baal HaSulam. "Study of the Ten Sefirot" (TES). Vol. 1. Part 3. Chapter Thirteen. #5 ("Since in the look, the more adhesive with the root is higher")
Chapter 14 Item 1 (00:24): “Explains the internality and externality of the five worlds …”
1. S. (02:08) Meaning in Assiya we have all of the Parzufim in each and every world 25 Partzufim: Keter, Hochma, Bina, ZA, Malchut. They have special names, that is not important, and in each one of them there are also five Sefirot: Keter, Hochma, Bina, ZA, Malchut and all in all there are 25 parts that all have their own light. In the five parts of the world of Assiya there is NRNHY of Nefesh, in the world of Yetzira there is NRNHY of Ruach and so on.
Reading item 3 (02:50): “Each Partzuf of the…”
2. R. It is clear to us. Next.
Continuing item 3 (03:28): “Also each Partzuf…”
3. S. (04:14) Guess what is the world of Assiya, what is special about it?
R. The world of Assiya is closest to us. It is above us, through it all of the commands come down on us, all of the discernments that we already feel in our degree in this world. Everything that comes, comes from Ein Sof through those five worlds. That is it. That is what he is telling us.
S. It says here that we get the NRNHY of the general soul, what is the general NRNHY in the world of Assiya?
R. Each and every world has its own NRNHY, five lights as every world includes five vessels. That is why we get through all those worlds, from Ein Sof, we get NRNHY on the degree of that specific world: NRNHY of Yechida, Haya, NRNHY of Neshama, NRNHY of Ruach and of Nefesh and because in our world we don’t receive the upper light we have an influence of some kind of Illumination that sustains our world, gives us some sort of livelihood. That is what we get from the world of Assiya.
S. What does it mean that in our common feeling there is the world of Assiya?
R. If we connect so in our connection we will already be equal to the lowest degree of Assiya. And they're also if we keep connecting and connecting and connecting we will ascend through all the degrees of Assiya and all then the worlds of Yetzirah and Beria and so on until we reach our root in the world of Ein Sof. That is called that we have reached the end of correction, Gmar Tikkun.
4. S. (06:52) What is the form of the cascading of the lights in the form of wheels in Assiya? How can we depict that, this wheel, that is how the light clothes in this world?
R. The lights clothe from above through all degrees such that in each and every degree, the degree restricts them more and more until they start being worthy of connecting to this world and bestowing upon this world and in that way to manage this world, to take care of it until they raise it upward.
S. What is the order of the wheels?
R. It is like a wheel that in a way of ascents and descents and changes it works on us.
S. Meaning that Assiya is the change that works on this world like a wheel? Ups and downs for the ones who engage in the wisdom of Kabbalah because it is the closest to us?
R. Yes. Not only on those who engage in the wisdom of Kabbalah but on everybody. You do not see how the world is evolving and changing and going through ascents and descents? You see it in a different way, they interpret it in a corporeal manner, we interpret it in a more internal spiritual manner. For us what is important is what is happening inside, our attitude towards the world, our attitude towards the Creator, our attitude towards the friends and they don't recognize it in such a way. They see that this is how the world is changing around them.
S. Meaning we are all close to the world of Assiya, the whole world but the only difference between us is in that relation to the things that come to us from above?
R. Yes, good.
Reading item 4 (09:01): “In general the…”
5. R. (09:20) We have five lights, we have five vessels also every vessel has five vessels on its own, its private vessels, so it is five times five that is 25 Sefirot and Partzufim and 25 lights in the Partzufim, that is it.
Continuing item 4 (09:58): “It turns out…”
6. R. (09:55) Even if there are 25 lights in the world of Assiya all together it is the light of Nefesh that has 25 degrees, styles, manners of the light.
Continuing item 4 (10:38): “Internality and externality…”
7. R. (11:11) In the world of Yetzirah we also have five times five which is 25 Sefirot and if so there are 25 lights. All of these lights all up together is the light of Ruach, in the world of Assiya we have the light of Nefesh with 25 forms of its own and also the light of Ruach with 25 forms of its own.
Reading 5 (11:49): “Similarly there are…”
8. R. (12:20) It’s like saying instead of it Keter ,Hochma, Bina, Zeir Anpin, Malchut so we say, Arich Anpin, AB of Ima, Zeir Anpin, Malchut.
Reading 12:30) “Each Partzuf is divided similarly into five…..”
9. S. (13:12) Yes, what is the difference between the worlds? There are degrees in the worlds of Yetzira of Assiya, what is the principal difference?
R. The difference between all of the worlds is the attainment of the Creator. That a world comes from the word concealment, Elem, so by the concealment the Creator can reveal Himself as much as I can ascend above my will to receive to the extent of a bestowal meaning faith above reason. I start discovering the upper force according to the equivalence of form with it. That is the matter of the world. The world helps me by concealing the Creator and rising above the concealment with the force of bestowal that’s called faith above reason and by that discovering the Creator revealing Him.
S. We, all the friends, all of us together in the group, we all overcome, we try to rise above the reason in connection. What is added? What should we add to nonetheless come and be into the revelation of the world of Yetzirah or Assiya?
R. You see that the world is a vessel that includes five Partzufim every Partzuf includes five Sefirot and all in all it is twenty five Sefirot, Partzufim in every world if you want to receive something some kind of impression from the world from the Creator you need to build those vessels. That through them you can discover the Creator you need to organize all kinds of desires that will all be connected and aimed to bestow to the Creator that they will want to receive revelation of the Creator in order to give Him contentment. That’s what we need to do, so if you have such people even two, we’re not speaking about five or twenty five or ten, even two, as it is written “the multitude of the many is two”.
So you can connect with more friends and by each one it being in Arvut with the others that I can give the others all of my support and they give me their support, so by that we’re in such a connection and by that we reach a state, how do I say it, in a state that the Creator can be revealed in us, in Arvut, in completing one another. Somewhat we are going back to the state that was before the shattering of the first Adam and as much as we come back there with our efforts to Him, we attain that light that was there during when Adam HaRishon existed but 620 times greater because we do it from ourselves, through the darkness, from the resistance against our ego, okay?
10. S. (17:56) He writes that from the world of Assiya there is a division of internally and externally before that there isn't this division?
R. We will talk about it later, but not in such a way.
11. S. (18:17) What is internality and externality when in Yetzira it’s spirits and angels?
R. Those are lights that are in the internality of the vessel and the externality of the vessels we’ll speak about it that is not for now we we’lll have a lot of studying about it.
Reading 6 (18:46) “The internality and externality of Beria….”
Reading 7 (19:15) “The internality and externality of Atzilut are….”
12. R. (19:31) Meaning there is one structure for all of the worlds five Partzufim in every Partzuf five Sefirot and in that way 125 discernments and the differences only in whether a big or small will to receive in each and every world and upon it there can be restriction screen reflected light and every world will get his own degree but the structure is the same structure.
Reading 8 (20:03) “The internality and externality of VAK….”
13. R. (20:20) So that’s clear that’s Adam Kadmon, Atzilut, Beria, Yetzira, Assiya are the same degrees, five degrees that upon them the light cascades from above downward and builds in the will to receive all the worlds and souls and everything in them.
Reading 9 (20:50) “NRNHY in each world are internality…”
14. R. (20:57) Meaning that the light itself in every world is internality.
Reading 9 (21:02) “and the vessels that clothes them….”
15. R. (21:06) That the lights are in the vessels and the vessels are called the external part that sustains the lights that hold them.
Reading 9 (21:20) “the words of ARI…….”
16. R. (21:52) Meaning the vessels of the worlds are their externality and the lights are their internally.
Reading 10 (22:00) “All the worlds are one Partzuf made of ten Sefirot…..
17. R. (22:37) So In this way everything is divided and divided.
18. S. (23:05) According to what you said or according to what was said, we are a few friends who are working on the translation of TES. Is there a way to maintain the right intention in order to really reach what it says here?
R. Yes, whoever is working on the translation is really doing a great correction to his soul and you’ll see as much as it will help you I translate a lot myself and if I could I would keep doing it more and more it helps people that do it go deeper into the words of Baal HaSulam and Rabash.
19. S. (24:30) If the disturbances in the ten hurt me to such an extent that I want to leave the ten, how can I overcome it?
R. Connect to the Creator and I ask of Him together with Him to incorporate in the ten that is very good such disturbances are very good it really helps you especially the women that have such disturbances to overcome their ego and to reach great corrections. The main thing for us is to rise above our ego that’s where we meet the Creator and the fact that you can’t connect to the ten it’s a sign that you can’t overcome your ego so come on as much as possible do it more it can take ten more years but still you need it in order to correct your soul.
20. S. (25:49) If the ten decides something that goes against my desire and I understand that I have to go with the ten so I do it but in the beginning internally it is not a nice way I am angry I have bad thoughts. Is it better to sit and do nothing or to do it knowing that in my beginning I curse the ten and the Creator and then I will pass?
R. The main thing is to do actions that are even against the desire but in the ten you will see as much as it helps it really helps it is really difficult but there is a great reward for it.
21. S. (26:44) If we would decide to go together out to a spiritual attack and to accept upon ourselves faith above reason, what would be required of us in the tens and in all the world Kli?
R. Except for connection nothing is demanded of us nothing only connection between us is what the Creator is waiting for.
22. S. (27:15) Why is there a feeling that the Creator doesn't enable us to find our ability, only partially, what is the Creator expecting of us?
R. There are times that we can’t publish or they’ll let us publish but people don’t accept our publications that's how it happens what can you do what can we do nothing only keep going and keep going and keep going it’s like in our life in our corporeal life even though we have problems but we must keep going same thing in spirituality doesn’t work but we still keep going.
23. S. (28:22) Everyday at 7:30 all the women in the world Kli gather for a prayer. How to increase the importance and to give all of the strength in a prayer?
R. We need to understand that when we together raise our request to the Creator even if let’s say today I don’t have any desire or force for it that I don’t have a mood for it but the fact that I'm trying I am really giving great contentment to the Creator as much as I have disturbances and I still reach prayer even if I can’t speak nice or think right but it’s against the disturbances that is actually it brings the Creator contentment from me and that gives me a good result afterwards that I start discovering the Creator and I feel that the Creator is listening to what I am telling Him.
R. (30:05) I am turning to the woman just as I turned to the men earlier that we need to try and incorporate in broad dissemination to the whole world obviously we have people that are in charge of this so don’t do it on your own but through guidance of the people in charge of it and let’s do it let's do it together we must we see as much as the world is going through changes it help the world go to the path of correction and not the path of suffering because it’s all it can keep going with problems and wars upon us and the whole world in a way that in a very serious and difficult way.
24. S. (31:15) What is the most important thing we should come out with from this lesson?
R. We in the first few lessons were talking about the essence of the connection in the third lesson now in TES we learned about as much as corrected desires can connect to a Partzuf and in it discover the Creator in the form of Olam world HaElama, concealment concealing revealing through concealment as much as we reveal the world of Assiya, Yetzira, Beria and so on meaning all around that topic that the more connection between us the more revelation of the Creator between us.
INFO - Unity Evening: I would like to remind you that this Sunday we are having a very special event 6:30 is real time to 8:30 or an hour-and-a-half we are going to have…
S. We wanted to ask. We'll be sitting part of the time in our tents and part of the time and are mixed sense. When we are in the next ten stairs like this happiness that explodes proceeding from that we haven't seen in a long time but sometimes there's a feeling that the connection isn't as deep and from Continental like we've reached in our constant pain so how in such a short time to be in such a connection in a mixed ten?
R. That is something you should discuss. How should I know? Try. Meaning how can you reach even in the way that you are sitting in a mixed way but it is virtual.
S. Because of his virtual people will be able to go from there to other speak the same language.
R. Yes.
S. Create and then there are also item.
R. Do you want do you want to reach the same language.
S. To mix only geographically not the languages I go into rooms of the languages that I could speak.
R. So what did I give you? We get to know more people.
S. Yes. We get to know more people? Yes to get impressions for more people there are two bodies that we build in both.
R. …
S. …On the other hand there was a feeling that you reach not such a deep connection how can you make bad connection be for?
R. You cannot that's where in the group they feel more of each other and they have a connection even if they are not aware of it but the connection between them is done has become strong and eternal. It is eternal. Do not think that there are some mistakes in the connection between us that the Creator organized is it for us in such a kind of way that we think we are someone some connected brand from above us now. The Creator is the one protecting us and he is the one that organizes things that is why we have to accept it to this way. That is why the connection you cannot compare this connection when I'm in some temporary framework for one evening two hours or when I am in complex with my time they have short-term or long-term programs and all kinds of things none the less connected no you can't a try organize that is also good it is like when you open a window to put some new air in the room that is also something you should do.
S. Yes that is, what charge do I have to bring my constant ten to the meeting with the next ten?
R. That I am the representative of my true ten my internal ten and I want to bring this fair to all this great time that I'm connected to now the big public and I will all be connected this way.
