Part 2: Recorded lesson -August 27, 2021. Baal HaSulam. Preface to the Wisdom of Kabbalah. #18

Question (Turkiye 3): (00:07) It is said that Behina Dalet was forbidden to be a receiving vessel for the Ten Sefirot after the Tzit Zuim restriction, can you explain?

M. Laitman: Malchut of Ein Sof, when she receives all of the light of Ein Sof from the Keter of Ein Sof through the four phases, she received it, she felt that this light that came to her Keter from the root fills her completely and she truly has nothing empty left, she can’t feel her previous desire where she wants to enjoy, but rather she enjoys everything completely. However, what was added here after she was filled with this infinite pleasure, meaning without limit, what was added to this pleasure was a new discernment whereby this is the feeling of the giver. The giver is the bestower, the giver is complete and infinite, compared to that she is completely opposite to Him, and she is lowly and despicable, she’s in a form that is completely opposite from the Emanator, from the bestower. Though this feeling is full of pleasure in her will to receive, specifically because it is filled with infinite pleasure, it awakens in her just how despicable she is, deplorable compared to the root and the source, and this is what she cannot stand. The restriction doesn't come because she is deficient of something. Rather, it comes because she feels, she can feel how opposite she is in her qualities to the Creator, and this is the meaning of shame that is being born.

She is receiving entirely, she wants to receive only that she enjoys the reception, she’s got nothing, her root is the bestower, the lover and the giver, the one who is willing to do anything for her, and that gap between this feeling, this one nature and the other nature is infinite. It begets shame in her that did not exist before that, and this shame is a great and powerful force in all of creation. Even regular people are capable of doing anything in order to avoid the shame, and you can say that all the actions that we are doing in our lives after we grow up beyond the level of babies, to grow up in this age of 5 or 6, that we do everything as the result of shame in order to not blemish our will to receive so that it will not feel the shame. Not to use it in order to bestow but to use it to avoid harming it. And this is a story for all people and of all humanity, and the process that we are going through. Our entire civilization is built on tiny people who care about one thing: not to reach shame on different levels, and that is truly our existence. We are truly miserable. In this way, we are keeping to ourselves, anything to avoid shame. Look how each and every one is behaving in anything in life. First of all, it is to rise above any potential shame and come closer to it. It is possible to control, which is the opposite of shame. This is our mutual existence.

Question (PT 13): (05:55) The engine of the ability to transform reception to bestowal is the greatness and importance of the Creator that creates the shame and the ability to refuse in our work in the Ten. We have to work beyond that greatness and importance of the Creator. Is this where actions come from? Do the discernments come on their own once we work on the greatness and importance?

M. Laitman: No, that’s the main thing, to raise the greatness and importance of the Creator. But for the time being, since we can't feel Him, then we have in His place the Ten. Don't think that this is some reward that we got and is a real solution, but as the Ten becomes real like the Creator, then we will come closer to detecting the Creator and appear correctly before Him. That’s one thing. The second thing is the shame, where the more that we can examine our actions according to the discernment of shame, we will be able to see what is shame relative to humanity, relative to the group, relative to all the people and the Creator, and that is how we will advance. We will understand how much this force is helping us to arrange our ego, our will to receive in the correct spiritual form, where shame is extremely helpful for us.

Student: The question is whether the shame is the result, or we need to work on it in some way?

M. Laitman: Shame is the result of the appearance of the gift of the Creator inside the egoistic desire. The way it was in Malchut of Ein Sof. That is the origin of shame.

Question (Latin 8): (08:57) In the example, he talks about the friends as the fact that we have friends helping me to work on the shame to transform it to bestowal, but with the friends who are not friends even though I discover His greatness, how can I overcome the shame?

M. Laitman: You will later begin to feel that shame towards Him, except gradually. Now it is not, as if today you feel shame to the Creator, you wouldn't be able to exist. It's like a baby, he doesn't feel any shame towards his mother or to the rest of the world, and later as he grows up, he becomes a small person, and then a greater person, and greater according to his feeling of self. He begins to distinguish between himself and the environment and accordingly to feel shame. There are those who wish to cover the shame with insolence, and we get all kinds of behaviors and manifestations from people. There are those who wish to cover it with their business dealings to differentiate themselves, and there are those who acquire philosophy and religion. Everything is to cover this feeling of shame, we will work with you on those things. It is expansive, it’s a vast thing, but eventually we have to be grateful to shame, because it is helping us to reach a state where we can approach the Creator, to locate Him, and are able to cleave to Him. Shame is a great, powerful force that comes to us from the Malchut of Ein Sof, and shame, just as Baruch Rabash said, shame is a form of Creation in and of itself to that extent, you write it that shame is a form of creation in and of itself. We will talk about it in other contexts, and the combination of shame and pride, and the ability to overcome using screens, this builds in us various styles of combinations, and then we come to how each and every one comes to his professions, skill, occupation, lifestyle, and all of it is in order to cover up his shame. Because of that, we build our families, and our societies, and our country, and everything. Look at it now, it is becoming painfully clear what the Russians are doing, the Americans are doing, Chinese, are doing, all this is all in order to cover up their shame. Look what the world is playing with as they don't care about anything, even that they could die as long as they cover their shame. We will learn about this great thing.

Question (French): (13:26) The shame comes from the guest not being able to feel the host as a source of pleasure or because of receiving the pleasure itself?

M. Laitman: Specifically when the guest discovers the host as the source of all pleasure, and the guest is the source of all of the deficiencies, and from the gap between them… not exactly the gap between them, but from their stature and more correctly, the origin of their desire towards one another, that's where the shame is coming from. Before a child identifies that his mother is giving him and he is only receiving, he doesn't make any calculations, he has no feeling of shame or anything. Only when he himself, when he grows up, and even more when he begins to give to his own children especially, then he begins to feel the nature of his mother, and what she did for him. Accordingly, he discovers his shame towards her. It's not exactly a shame it's covered with love. We will learn how these graphs come and cover each other and humanity, but it is interesting how we exist. At one point when it will be revealed more clearly, humanity will learn a lot about itself.

Question (New York 4): (15:22) When I feel shame before my friends that I want to harm them, what is the correct way to work with the shame?

M. Laitman: Replace it with love. Ask the friends, ask the Creator to do all of the action so that in place of that shame you are feeling and how you wanted to harm them before, exploit them, and now you just want love to be there. Then you will get what Rabash is writing to us about in the articles of the group.

Question (PT 18): (16:28) The matter of shame as I understand is something that exists in each of us and very much felt in life. The question is, why is there lack of desire and rejection when you receive a gift from a friend? Why is it considered humiliation?

M. Laitman: Why does it exist in the still, vegetative, and animate?

Student: They don’t have that level of human development?

M. Laitman: What is that development in a human? Maybe not every human. What prevents a person receiving freely from the other?

Student: The shame is a disturbance, but when a friend gives you a gift, it shouldn't be humiliating. The friend gives a gift out of love to another friend, why should it be a rejection, why should it not be accepting it with love?

M. Laitman: You can't feel the love of the friend, and perhaps you can't respond in kind, so you reject it so you would not feel indebted to him. If you are truly friends, there shouldn't be any problem. There isn’t any problem.

Student: If you receive a gift from a friend, there is no disgrace or shame. There shouldn’t be.

M. Laitman: True, if it is a friend, there should be no negative relationships. They are only a gift and a disclosure. What is a gift? It’s a disclosure of love.

Student: What is a friend then?

M. Laitman: A friend is an inseparable part of me in attaining the Creator.

Question (PT 18): (18:43) What we read here, the restriction happened once or each time anew?

M. Laitman: Each time. Every time before each and every action, you have to arrange yourself in such a way that whatever you are doing is not in order to receive. Meaning, you will find yourself placing yourself under the restriction.

Question (Baltia 1): (19:29) You said in the lessons recently that everything revolves around pride. Can we say that pride is a quality that protects shame?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Question (MAK 6): (19:55) About the example of the guest and the host, it always seems understood and close, but the host is an adult who understands and knows who he is working towards. So we can use the example of the embryo here?

M. Laitman: Yes, of course.

Question (Karmiel): (20:30) If all of the states come from the Creator, then shame comes from there also. So, how do I participate with that shame, and what to do to overcome that?

M. Laitman: Perform actions as we discussed between the host and the guest so we will take care of it correctly. I need in some form to do an action against what is done to me. I am given a gift. How do I cover the gift? And I'm not covering it to avoid the shame but in order to strengthen the connection between us. One is now making an appearance and disclosing his love to me, how can I connect to Him in return and disclose my love for Him and for our connection to be mutual. This is what we need to do.

Question (PT 29): (21:45) After the rejection the guests received in the vessel of Malchut, why is it called new vessels?

M. Laitman: A new intention Because he goes back to receive from the host after the rejection, and from that he is deriving new pleasures, new relationship to the host, where now they are entering into mutual connection.

Reading: (22:27) Baal HaSulam. Preface to the Wisdom of Kabbalah. #19

We have already explained that the first three phases are still not considered a vessel, but only phase four is considered a vessel, as written in Item 5. Still, because the first three phases are its causes and induce the completion of phase four, once phase four is completed, four measures are recorded in its quality of reception.

Phase one in it is the slightest measure of the quality of reception. Phase two is somewhat coarser than phase one in terms of its quality of reception. Phase three is coarser than phase two in its quality of reception. Finally, phase four, its own quality, is the coarsest of them all, and its quality of reception is complete in every way. We should also discern that the root of the four phases, which is the most refined of them all, is included in it, too.

These are the five phases of reception contained in phase four, which are also called by the names of the Ten Sefirot, KHB [Keter–Hochma–Bina] TM [Tifferet-Malchut], incorporated in phase four, since the four phases are HB TM, as written in Item 5, and the root is called Keter.
