Part 2:

Baal HaSulam. Introduction to the Book Panim Meirot uMasbirot. #19

Reading item #19: (00:05) “As our Sages said he is the evil inclination ...”

1. S. (13:24) We read a lot about the Sitra Achra, it's not clear what it is?

R. The other side, Sitra Achra, is our ego which stands to be corrected and its corrections are happening in several stages, first we reject part of these egoistic desires from ourselves, and we don't want to use them. Some of them we can already perhaps transform them in order to bestow, but everything that's egoistic and there's a matter of whether it's possible to correct it or impossible. Typically the Sitra Achra the other side is our desires that we are unable to correct and later on, of course, even was called the ‘angel of death’ becomes the ‘holy angel’, meaning that it too becomes corrected, and all the desires ultimately receive an intention to bestow.

S. [No translation]

R. That we can't overcome them, there are such desires that you cannot overcome, what can you do. They are greater than your force of overcoming, we don't even feel right now these desires because we are not being given them, they are too big, we will surely want to try to use them the way they appear in us and that's it. So it's as if the person becomes crazy beyond normal, can't cope with them, but bit by bit by the same level of importance of the Creator that we acquire, we can receive more and more greater desires and overcome. Still there will be some that we can't and those desires we cannot overcome, they have what we call worlds, worlds of Sitra Achra, about this is written in the book the Tree of Life and it's very difficult to understand that It's discussed they have a structure similar to all of the 125 degrees of Kedusha there are degrees of impurity, with their names and actions between them and so forth. It's a hell as we call it, but hell is in that we can't do anything with them in order to bestow and the person is very sorry for not being able to overcome them and do something in order to bestow He as if is obligated to fulfill, carry out these desires in order to receive, that is something very, very difficult to bear. Well we will get there, in the meantime, in short the system is much more complex than what we learn in the meantime.

S. How not to fall to that influence?

R. We can't be or not be in it, we simply exist in this whole system except the system is not yet open, revealed to us, not in the part of Kedusha and not in the part of Tuma’a, impurity, but the more that we go into Kedusha, sanctity, then to some extent somewhat we can also feel the part of impurity. That is still ahead of us, the whole matter is much more complicated than we think or what we in the meantime learn, it's like okay well what's the big deal here, it's either in order to receive or in order to bestow, no, it's much more complex.

2. S. (18:56) What's the upper Sitra Achra mentioned in the text?

R. Well that's like the worlds, there's a world of Atzilut, above the world of Atzilut there's a world of Ein Sof and the world of Adam Kadmon where we have no engagement. All the created beings begin from below not even from the world of Atzilut, the world of Atzilut is like a Rosh that is above us and we are in the world of BYA. So there's Upper and lower worlds and that's in Kedusha where we are in order to bestow and also in Tuma’a, meaning where we are in order to receive so it is a single system that is divided into two parts, both right and left, up and down and that's how we learn it. Of course it's all with respect to the person who has to correct himself.

3. S. (20:26) It's a bit difficult to follow the article if you could explain what he's speaking about here in general, what is he trying to tell us?

R. You need this article, this part we just read, you need to go through it. Besides the noon lesson, when there's some of the meeting between you, you can read or everyone individually, it's better if you read it together. Also if you listen to what the reader just read and repeat it, we have to repeat the lesson a few times for it to be absorbed too.

4. S. (21:27) There's in the middle about the descent of the 288 sparks to the Sitra Achra, it's written 10,000 for a generation and a thousand generations to Gmar Tikkun so the question is the fear in the work of the Creator that we are trying to do , what Baal HaSulam says that it's so sharp. What do I have to relate more, one hand working the Creator on the other hand it's so determined, so what can I do anything, where can the ten influence?

R. Read a few times and you will find a place.

5. S. (22:24) When we are speaking about a desire like some kind of flaw or….?

R. Read a few times I told you and then it'll be clear and if it's not clear that even if it's not clear you will discover it soon, as you keep going on the path you will discover. How do you want to understand something you don't feel? How? First you feel, then you understand what you feel, what's the connection between all kinds of components of your feeling but if you don't yet attain it then at least go back to it a few times so that you're clear on what you want to attain.

6. S. (23:25) So here he says that since the system of Holiness cannot ruin a person as the law of opposites so he says that we can't, we learn that the world Holiness does work on opposites so what does it mean that it can't?

R. Okay we're not discussing this today. Read a few times more and then we will see how we can answer and discuss this. Read, read what we just studied.
