Review

• The true essence of the differences between the light and the vessel.

• We have the endless light that comes from the essence comes from the Creator

• The light does not change is an important concept. If you believe that the light does change, you are already relating yourself to a sinner.

• When you pray you are not asking the Creator to give it to you, you are asking for help to change yourself, so you can receive what the creator wants to give.

• Spirituality – changes from inside. Religion (can be closed mindedness) helps transform from outside.

• The picture of this universe operates with the relationship between humans and the Creator.

When you give, even when you don’t want to give, you have affinity with the Creator, and this is how your life starts to change.

• Emanator: Creator

• Emanated/Vessel/Container/Receiver

• Desire to Receive – exists within the emanated, it is a new form

If the Creator is only giving, how does a receiving force arise when there is no receiving from the Creator, it is only giving:

Something from Nothing

The light going into the container is creating something from something. This is the light.

When the Creator gives you something, you think it’s because of you. However, you need to connect that the Creator because the Creator wants to give it to you. Again, there is no change in the light. We often disconnect from the giver. Tool to connect to something from something is appreciation that allows you to connect to the giver, when you don’t have appreciation, you are connecting to the receiver. Appreciation is not manners; it is for you. When you create a receiving force within you, this creates dis-affinity with the Creator, because the Creator is only giving.

The vessel depends on two factors 1.) being amazed and 2.) desire/how much you want it.

When light goes into the container, it is no longer in the domain of the receiver. It is a different light, then the light that is left the emanator.

Rav Ashlag says, “to remember the light never moves. It doesn’t stop shining, not even for a second.” The Light doesn’t change, even after the tzimzum. The only thing that changes

is your desire and being amazed by it. Are there areas in your life that you do not desire anymore, or not amazed? This can make people feel depressed. If you don’t feel you have what you want in your life, you need be amazed and desire it! Must ignite this force within you. The fulfillment is the same, being amazed and desiring it is the only thing that is

different.

Always connect to the giver, on what they are doing and not what you are receiving.

During the tzimzum, the receiver decreased the desire to receive. When you don’t have what you want it is because your desire and amazement went down.

• Not allowed to force something onto someone (No coercion in spirituality) if there is an area in your life that is not fulfilled, then you don’t desire it enough.

Do you have something in your life you don’t have now?

• Your main desire has to be what you want to achieve

• Make a list of desires and how much are you amazed by the desire?

• You need to wake up for it to happen, you need to be obsessed with the desire to make it, like many athletes.

• The light has it ready for you, you desire it because the creator wants to give it to you. The fulfillment always comes before the desire.

• If couples appreciate each other- they live longer. It allows the soul to stay longer.

Always check your desire levels.

When we look at people, we are looking at different levels of desire and different levels of appreciation.
