Part 2:

Baal HaSulam, Preface to the Wisdom of Kabbalah, #138

1.R. (00:27) As it is written there are laws for everything. It says from beginning to end. Meaning you study from the beginning and move towards the end. Then you begin to see here and there, what we understood or even forgot. Does not matter. First, we have sort of one full review, which is the order of studying.

Reading item 138 twice (00:58)

2. S. (08:29) What's this process of filling the Rosh on account of the Guf?

R. We learn that all the Partzufim were in Tzimtzum Bet, second restriction; Meaning, it was forbidden to use the vessels of AHP, the vessels of reception. There is not enough power in the screen that enables the use of the vessels to receive in order to bestow, but only the vessels of bestowal, so bestowing in order to bestow, Keter, Hochma, and GAR of Bina, the upper half of Bina. Keter, Hochma and the top part of Bina are the vessels of bestowal they have Aviut, coarseness, levels root, one and half of two and that is why they can just bestow. They do not have more; they do not need more. They do not have desires to receive, but the vessels from ZAT of Bina, the lower part of Bina and ZA and Malchut, they are vessels of reception wanting to receive in order to bestow. It is insufficient for them to just bestow in order to bestow so each and every Partzuf begins to be divided to vessels of bestowal and vessels of reception and therefore all the corrections that we need to do after the shattering is first to correct the vessels of bestowal Keter, Hochma and GAR of Bina, they are the vessels of coarseness levels root, one and some of two and these vessels don't need much correction they just need to be brought out of the shattering and given screens to enable them to connect with the others through bestowing in order to bestow. They do not have a desire to receive in order to bestow, that is why we call them vessels of bestowal.

Then when we correct them, they remain in that state and they can be there regularly because they do not have these ups and downs, they don't have an actual will to receive that can cause them to go up and down but the vessels of reception which are ZAT of Bina, ZA and Malchut, they already have a will to receive involved in them. A little bit exist in Bina which is in order to pass on lights from the upper to the lower ones from Keter and Hochma, to give it to ZA and Malchut and that's why we have to see how to correct them, It's not simple, and then we have the vessels of, not just ZAT of Bina, but of ZA and Malchut and those are already serious vessels. There is a will to receive there, it comes from above but is already involved there. It requires serious correction and in Malchut there is no way to even touch it because the will to receive there, comes from the will to receive itself, that wants to receive and feels pleasure in itself in as much as it receives. So here we have to see how we can correct these vessels. It is not a simple matter. Either I do good to someone, and I enjoy it, so I have pleasure from bestowing, this is like in ZAT of Bina, which is interested in bestowing, she enjoys it. Or ZA who receives a bit, not by his own strength that is why he is called little, ZA, small, but what he receives he enjoys.

It is like the little ones. Little children who cannot receive on their own, they do not have sufficient strength, but they can still receive and enjoy and demand. In Malchut, well there is the will to receive that is in control in a way that it is complete, the complete will to receive. Here we have to divide all the systems into vessels of bestowal, Keter, Hochma and GAR of Bina, and vessels of reception, ZAT of Bina, ZA and Malchut and how we correct them, that is what he says here. This mostly happens in the five Partzufim of the world of Atzilut because afterwards the worlds of Bria, Yetzira, Assiya they come as a replica of the world of Atzilut in the will to receive on the levels of Bet, Gimel, Dalet, two three and four, nothing special is created there. Of course there are additional limitations in there, very big limitations, additional limitations in each and every one of these worlds but nothing essentially new is going to happen there because everything there stems from the world of Atzilut and the actions that it does in the coarseness level two, which is the world of Beria, level three, which is the world of Yetzira and level four, which is the world of Assiya.

3. S. (13:25) it is written that each one from Atik, AVI and Arich Anpin had full ten Sefirot in the Rosh from that the GAR did not reach the Gufim, why is light in the Rosh and does not reach the GAR?

R. Because completing the Rosh, the GAR, which requires correcting the vessels of reception in the Guf because there is an opposite relation between lights and vessels, the more you work in heavier vessels the higher vessels you are correcting, that is what he says the correction from the Rosh doesn't come from there yet.

5. S. (14:30) He says that the five Partzufim were established in a constant place, a permanent place, what does that mean?

R. All the Partzufim, Atzilut, Beria, Yetzira, Assiya these worlds emerged in order to complete what the world of Adam Kadmon and the world of Nekudim couldn't do there happening to correct the NHY of AK, the Sof of Galgalta and that is why they clothe the Sof of Galgalta, they pass lights and corrections they take from Galgalta the big heavy desires and divide them to pieces and degrees, 5000 years it's called and so on, there's many details there. These little pieces are how they correct all these broken desires and then connect them together to the point that we have the complete Partzuf of Galgalta that shines from the top from himself all the way to the Sof of the Galgalta and that is called the complete correction.

6. S. (16:25) It is not clear to me because he says that AVI were incorporated in Keter of Nekudim the illumination of AHP was enough, what does it mean that Keter is above the world of Nekudim because it was shattered?

R. All those Partzufim of all the worlds of BYA, they nevertheless clothe the broken world of Nekudim and restore it until they do its job, they work instead of the shattered world of Nekudim, and they include that world in themselves as their left line. We will learn that, by that they correct it, they restore it, recover it, and bring the whole system to the final correction so we have to understand that the shattering of the vessels in the world of Nekudim was deliberate. Now all the false will to receive that prevents it from being an order to bestow are becoming clear. So we have to discover to reveal all the lacks that it exists in the will to receive so it cannot correct itself in order to bestow and that is why it was shattered and so the shattering is a necessary matter in order to discover what else needs to be corrected. That is how we come to corrections, the same thing with us there is no, as it says, “there is no righteous in the land without committing a sin”. Meaning we each time have to discover our shattered states and then only after we reveal that we come to states of correction.

S. In Nekudim we are in neutral, so only the upper force bestowed upon them, is that like a neutral place?

R. Why neutral?

S. Because they are not doing anything but receiving control from above.

R. That is what you know.

S. What is the world of Nekudim, what do they do there?

R. You're really succeeding and pulling us to something that is unrelated. The world of Nekudim was shattered, meaning it clarified exactly where is the big failure of the will to receive that prevents it from being in order to bestow. Meaning the world of Nekudim reveals where and what we need to correct in the system so that it arrives in order to bestow, meaning the revelation of the world of Nekudim is the most important.

S. So we belong to the world of Nekudim?

R. That is a different question, we each belong to where we are.

7. S. (20:28) Every time you explain and advise us in the Preface, but I am trying to activate my brain and you're explaining important things and I don't understand anything. I cannot get into this, what can you advise me?

R. I can advise you what I have done myself. I took a pencil, I opened the book, now you can do it on your computer screen, in my time we did not have computers, and then you can work with the text you can work on the text afterward and clarify exactly what it is about. If I show you my books that I used to learn from back, then you will see how much I doodled on them. What I have done is you are not going to find 1 cm without something I wrote there. That is what we should do to test out the material, observe it, spin it around this way, that way and the other way and do all these things before the lesson and after the lesson also. See how we become more connected to the text, which is on the one hand, on the other hand it is not the smart one who learns because learning in the wisdom of Kabbalah is learning connection between us and the Creator, that's the main thing.

Therefore pay attention only to that and so even if you work with a pencil in the text and you come out confused and you do not understand anything and this whole thing you reject this way of studying with a pencil or on the computer or editing the work working on the text, it does not matter. As long as you understand that the true implementation is in the connection between us and then you will be able to feel, to feel within yourself what is happening there, and it is unrelated to your intellect because intellectually we cannot perceive what is happening in spirituality anyway. It does not work with our brain cells; we need a spiritual intellect and that comes to us only from having the vessels of Bina and Malchut connected together as we are studying about right now how to achieve that system. Therefore there will come a time where we will be able to feel both Bina and Malchut and how they connect in all the 125 degrees until the final correction and only to the extent they connect within us, they are established within us. Accordingly we will sense first and then understand out of our feelings, we will understand what we feel, this is called attainment, attainment means that I understand what I feel.

Because first and foremost the Creator created a will to receive which means a will to feel what exists within it, it is not the smart one who learns. We would rather have to go through all these states until we arrive at it and what we arrive at, that's already the Creator's concern. We have to do what is up to us, that is it. Each one according to what we can do. Each one according to the mind that he has, the emotion he has, give that as much as you can and the Creator, as it says, will finish the job for me. The Creator is the one who completes the work, so be comfortable about it, enjoy the fact that we have a connection to the Creator and some connection between us. From the connection between us we rise, we are drawn a little bit towards him and that is a very big thing. Do not be concerned like that, that it is far from spirituality, far from sanctity. We have to connect ourselves and make ourselves a spiritual system as much as possible and whatever happens, happens. Pray, ask, hope.

8. S. (26:40) How important is experience in our work?

R. Experience is important as in that, as it says, a thousand times the righteous shall fall and rise, you need experience in falling and rising, falling, and rising, that is how we advance, that is where you need experience. Also when you fall the experience disappears and still it helps and a person begins to raise, to establish the environment, system, who helps him advance. All our progress happens by connecting to the friends when we can all help each other and it is not necessarily the ten, just the ten but it's our whole world group who wants to be in this mutual connection supporting, attracting, and raising each and every one from whatever descents, falls, disappointments that everyone goes through each day.

9. S. (28:15) We heard advice how to scrutinize the text in the ten carefully, but when we try to implement the scrutiny, we are really afraid to not confuse each other. Do you have advice how or should we still try to scrutinize these texts as individual work?

R. I do not think it's a good thing because that can bring confusion, try, try but reading together that's a different thing, reading together that's a remedy. As you want to attain the internality of the text.

10. S. (29:12) I saw that it is easier for me to be in contact with friends who are more distant from the world Kli, friends I know from all kinds of places, more than my ten. Why is it like that?

R. This is how your ego works as it does not want to work hard, it doesn't want to nullify, try to nullify, nevertheless, toward the friends who are close to you. I am not saying throw away those who are farther, but try, try, as much as possible to reach a state where you connect with the ten. It is difficult, it’s a lot more difficult, usually after all of the work we do on the outside around it, we finally fall back into the ten. That is how our ego works, it doesn't let us directly work on connection, sometimes it takes many years until we, after all, decide that there's no other work but in the ten.

S. You said to annul myself. What does it mean, just shut up? I feel like I do not agree with the friends, so I just have to step on myself, and be quiet or what?

R. If you neutralize yourself and be among them in agreement with whatever they determine, try, and when you each do it towards the other you will begin to hear the Creator's voice. The Creator that exists between you, and by that you will achieve restriction. What do you care about what happens in the ten there? see, take a different direction you are given an opportunity to nullify yourself.

S. I started distinguishing between the friends, some I respect, some I not really, so the ten has to be one unified body?

R. Keep going, keep going, it will be ok.

S. You always say that.

R. Do we have a choice? We keep going together and whatever we achieve, we achieve, but we keep going, and I am thankful to the Creator every day. These days are not all honey, but you have to accept it as good. This is what is good in the Creator eyes, because he is good that does good, and what we receive from Him certainly comes from good that does good, so the fact that I disagree, and I don't see this good, that's our work, to transform ourselves in a way that instead of all the bad we feel only good.

11. S. (33:23) Before the last congress that we had, there was a state that we went through a very good preparation, and our ten had the privilege to take part in all kinds of events, and questions arose that we'd like to ask Rav’s questions, all kinds of questions, we scrutinized in the ten turn into the Creator together, and we turn to the Creator and answers come. What is this state, is that some new knowledge we have to rise above?

R. Keep going, keep going, I do not see you in the lessons all of a sudden Kiev three (3) disappears, so we do not feel you.

S. This ten is in the lesson every day. Maybe that is exactly what we're talking about, maybe that's why I'm asking.

R. You have reached a state where all the questions you have, you are solving them in the ten?

S. That's what I feel, and what I hear from the friends in the workshop, which is how it is felt that we together turn to the Creator, and he manages us.

R. Excellent, excellent, continue. I have nothing to say but continue properly, do the proper work, and then see, when do you need again connection with everyone, questions to me, but for now nothing to say. I am happy to see you on the screen again.

S. Tell me please, should I try to awaken a desire to ask Rav a question?

R. You do not need to create work for me, do not worry about keeping me busy. I have some other things to do, no. If you have questions, you have questions, if not, you do not, as long as we just have this one single question of connecting between us until the Creator is revealed between us.

12. S. (36:20) What is a Partzuf, what are the five Partzufim of Atzilut and what is the difference between them?

R. Partzuf is called Ten Sefirot working together to resemble the Creator in a way that they can do it.

13. S. (36:42) What does it mean there is an illumination in the AHP and not in the Rosh, how is that possible?

R. No that is not possible, of course it is also in the Rosh, that’s also what we say sometimes that there is an Illumination in different parts of the Partzuf, but of course it comes through the Rosh, there is no structural changes in the Partzuf, and even if we say there is no Rosh, Toch, or Sof. It is just to emphasize that the main thing is the working parts.

14. S. (37:27) Why all the actions are taking place in Atzilut?

R. Because the world of Atzilut was established from the relics from the broken vessels, and it corrects them, and that is why it is more important than the other worlds.
