A Woman Builds, A Woman Destroys
A person who exists inside his own ego cannot feel love. Love implies that i love someone. But I do not love someone. I love someone the same way as when we say we love fish(for ex.) Regretably this is how we love. This is why the moment i stop enjoying my wife or it seems to be that another woman will bring more pleasure to me I leave my wife and get another one. All of this is happening to me because I pay attention to the level of my own fulfillment. This is why we have to correct ourselves in order to feel love. As egosits, we are evn afraid of loving someone. We are afraid that one would take advantage of us: that in some sense, will work for him or her. All the levels which we rise above, that we ascend towards, correcting ourselves and coming closer to the spiritual ideal are but the steps towards the realization of love. This is not as simple as it may seem, and it is not so insignificent. On the contrary, it shows that love does not exist in our world, on our level. To really attain love, we have to go beyond our world to the world of Atzilut. (one must not forget that each human being was created with a male and female aspect and that and the term " a woman builds, a woman destroys" is in the female as well as in the male) There is, in essence, a simple solution, explained in the Torah very simple, It is written, "Husband and wife" and Shechinah (the presnce of the Creator) between them, If we intoroduce a certain binding element called -Shechinah between husband and wife then they can really be husband and wife, that is they can unite with each other. What does this binding element represent? it comes into existance when both partners go beyond their egoism,beyond their desire for delight. by doing this they also turn into a single Kli (vessel) in which the Shechinah reigns.
It is possible to attain and takes constant work and many trials and when so called disturbances occur this is where the greatest work is possible to achieve between two parts.

Find a Goal-oriented friend! write us to: group@kabbalah.info
Are you alone?
It is very sad to be alone.
Dear friends! Look for faithful and reliable friends and companions in your neighbourhood: in your native town or at least in your region; look for people who are sitting alone at their computers like you.
Don’t put off your search until tomorrow. Write to the group e-mail group@kabbalah.info and we’ll help you to find friends, connect with them and organize a group. We remind you of Rav’s advice: you should gather even if there are only two of you and there’s no one else nearby. It is very important to be together physically during the Zohar lesson…
Only together!

........Understandably, we hate working against egoism, but we must make an effort to complete this job as if we are children playing a game. “Playing” means I imitate the Upper One as if I already possess His quality. Making efforts to obtain it is called playing.

Starting The Long Journey Upward | Laitman.com
Starting The Long Journey Upward
Afterwards, she walks and roams and rises according to her degree.
That Nefesh that was rewarded with rising appears before the King and adheres with a desire to be seen, a sublime craving to see the pleasantness of the King and to visit His palace. This is a man who always has a share in the next world.
What is the soul (Nefesh)? When I desire to unite with the others and feel how through this aspiration I connect with similar desires of the others, the place of our oneness and unity is called “Nefesh” in relation to me. Everyone may feel it differently, but for me Nefesh is the first spiritual step. If I can later strengthen this connection despite my growing egoism and obstacles, I can attain the next spiritual degrees: Ruach, Neshama, Haya, and Yechida. But the place of my very first contact, my desire for unity to occur, is called Nefesh.
I have to create a place for all of our desires to come together! And when everybody is there (and so am I), when I have connected them with my effort (and they have given me the opportunity to enter and join them), there, in the place of my exertion and my oneness with all the others, I will finally undergo all the spiritual states that The Zohar tells us about.
All I need is to desire this connection and feel as if I’m already in it, which will indicate my entering the state of Nefesh. The Zohar tells me about what happens next, in this oneness. There is only one relationship which experiences ups and downs, various adventures, and spiritual states. The Zohar doesn’t discuss anything else. As a matter of fact, The Zohar talks solely about the spiritual world since spirituality can be found only in our oneness.
From the 2nd part of the Daily Kabbalah Lesson 7/27/10, The Zohar
