Start by : Judge your friend favorably
How do I center my attention on the intention that rides on top of the desire, rather than the desire itself? I want to buy such glasses that I can sort out only by intention and say, this the inner body, this is the middle, and this is the outer.
This is a "shell" because I cannot change the intent on it, on those desires.
And this is "holiness," that in those desires I am found in the right intention, and those are still the shell of Venus “Klipat Noga,” desires which we still need to sort out and try to attach them to "in order to bestow," to the inner body.
So the question is, how do I get to the point where I constantly check and sort intentions rather than desires? The desires do not matter to me at all. Thus, we begin to see the world differently. We examine the people and do not know if it's right or wrong: a thief, a murderer, maybe a rude man, a man that bursts out, goes figure out or tries to know his real intention; he could be doing a “Mitzvah.”
A good use of this desire is called "Mitzvah."
That is why it’s called the wisdom of the hidden, that I really start to see the world upside down. We start to see everything in a different way. So how will we approach and see the world by the intent and not by the desires?
I give an opening line to begin by: "Judge your friend favorably."
I must always judge them favorably and then with this same attitude I start to see the world through intentions. This way I start to tell the difference between how to look at the world, how to look at society.
In society, I look as if everyone is in "order to bestow,” it is called "Judge your friend favorably," and at the rest of the world I relate to them as they are.
In this manner I start to get a sense of what is called to look at the intentions rather than at the actions. [Part A, 29 min].
I am willing to stay the way I am, help them in something, anything, in order for them to attain what they want to
Here, in my inner body where I am connected with all the friends, I want with all my strength to help them reach the goal of creation. In everything that I want to accomplish, that I want to reach, I am doing all the actions and intentions so they will be the ones that will achieve.
And for me, I am willing to stay the way I am, just help them in something, in order for them to attain what they want to.
This is, for the meantime, a kind of expression of bestowal from the inner body.
Surely, in the first place, I arrive to that out of hatred, rejection, competition, and all sorts of bad thoughts, as we learn it was this way among those who owned the Zohar, but slowly I get to the point that I work with dedication so the Creator will enjoy the friends.
I'm confident that from them, He will enjoy. Therefore, I work in this area. And I, myself, am ready to give them everything that is important to me, in order for them to be the ones that will reach the goal.
This is, more or less, the first distinction of the inner body. [Part A, 36 min].
A Person cancels himself. Why do you do it? What is your purpose, your goal?
I want to cancel myself in order to integrate within the friend, then what? Self-cancel for what? You have cancellation; everywhere you look a person cancels himself. Why do you do it? What is your purpose, your goal? Just cancel for the sake of cancelling one’s self? You need to do the action until the finish.
Because "think before you act," you have to reach a point from beginning to the end, till it is absolutely clear to you what you're doing.
Now you are working, your intention is to ascend until the end of the road. And if you only see a small section, that is not enough, that means that your intention is not complete and not working right. So how can you do an action without any benefit, without a full and clear knowing of why I am doing it, what do I want to get out of it?
I do not think that you're doing any action, quite the opposite, I'm sure you are not doing any action at all. Because action without a meaning, is like a body without a soul. It's a dead action, it does not give anything. I'm sorry, but that's the truth.
An intention should come before the action, an intention must provoke the action, stimulate the action and give it all its tone. How I will do it, for whom do I do it, how I will sort it out, for what purpose and why. First of all, clarify everything and then do the action itself. Otherwise, it is an act of either a baby or a person who is not sane or, excuse me, a crazy person, I do not know, who is acting without Intention?
Unless you act with intention, with a normal intent like in ordinary life, in order for me to feel good, this would be a natural action; we do not need to try and sort it out and check it before everything we do. [Zohar, 18 minutes]
How to implement
What, he would sit at home if he has an opportunity to disseminate?
The general upper mechanism counts all the opportunities that a person has because all the opportunities were given to us from above.
The Creator gives you opportunities in the north, guest houses in the Sea of Galilee, in the Dead sea, at all kinds of beaches and all sorts of places. By all means go there, go to the people that are on holiday, on vacation. Now, Sukkot is coming and it's for a week, so go ahead disseminate vigorously all over, do whatever you can.
There is nothing better than that. It was given to us from above and now checking on us.
"No," they just want to go to Eilat. And if a person has not gone to Eilat yet, he does not want to go to anywhere. Ok, then he is pulled onto the path of "in its time" (Beito). Do you understand it? We must use all the opportunities that are given to us. This is one thing.
Secondly, I emphasize to everyone, as I asked whether or not do I go to Eilat, they replied "no," so I did not go there. First of all, you need to think of how I could be useful. If according to the manager there, I cannot benefit them, then "sit and do nothing," or go elsewhere. Thank God we have a lot of opportunities. [Part D, 41 min]
We will not succeed in our material and spiritual life unless during the workshop, we will implement one hundred percent for the connection between us.
During the day, try to complete what you feel that you have missed. It's very nice that it is missing; it's good that you think so.
Who knows, maybe tomorrow we will not do any workshop, what then? You will be the one that will need to worry about the positive, the disadvantage, to of all of these things. Why should I do that? Only what, we need to be the ones to supplement.
Try it. You'll feel during the day just how much you are missing it. A small amount of intention is good. When you will come tomorrow, you'll have half an hour or an hour, we will see how much, it’s all according to your will.
I felt the need to shorten the workshop, I had not thought it would be for a half hour, and then I saw that it was good and worthwhile. Because we still need to have much more desire for it than what we have now. We should understand that the spiritual and physical life today are both linked together. We will not succeed in them unless during the workshop we will implement one hundred percent the connection between us. [Part D, 50 min]
