Being disconnected from myself, that is where spirituality is
The goal seems to us as something that is before me and I'm about to see it in the distance, crave it, accept it and acquire it. The problem is in these words: "to crave it" and "to acquire it," because specifically in the zero point we become concerned not for ourselves but what is outside of me, for others. Being disconnected from myself, beyond that horizon, that psychological barrier, that is where spirituality is. The concern remains but not like it was. The matter of the concern, the fear, the prayer is no longer for what do I have, how will I end the day, how will I finish life and how am I towards others; the concern becomes outside of myself, outside the circle of my ego, that is where a person gets the ability to feel what's beyond his ego, there he finds his spiritual self [Part 1 Min 24]
To the extent which he cares for the society he can draw the light through it
A person never corrects himself one on one with the Creator, in a direct line, but always through society. To the extent which he cares for the society he can draw the Light through it. That care will correct him so he will no longer need to take care of himself, this is how it works. It is a necessary, yet spiritual and pure state. If we don't activate it we don't reach anything, this should be very clear. I never correct myself, only if the society provides me with such influences that neutralize the concern for myself, for my egoistic will: who am I, what am I, when, and so on. The society must bring me the Light of correction. To the extent that I invest in the society can I perceive the Light and become corrected. Then, once again I become a connected, inseparable part of the society; this is how you build the Kli.
Therefore, anyone who is trying by himself immediately turns into a Klipa (Shell). This is the whole thing, it seems so easy, so unidentifiable, it's like Rabbi Akiva cried: "love another as thyself." If I care about others a bit less, meaning not a 100% and I'm starting to calculate how I will be with the Creator, how I will bestow, how I will do, then we fall to unfounded hatred. The transition is very subtle, really unidentified. Only in the reciprocal work with the friends is it possible to bring ourselves, our general dial to zero to such a sensitivity that we will rise all the time to the house of the Lord and not in any other direction. [Part 1 Min 37]
