From Fear to Love
How does one arrive from fear to love?
We need to be in a state of fear or love. The awe, the
fear, is from what remains or from the trouble that will come, and if I clarify
and process this state correctly, then I arrive at love. The clarifications of
fear are called prayer, and there needs to be as much as possible in them. The
main thing is not to exit from the inner clarification, i.e., who is operating
me? How do I relate to Him? How does one ascend above the states and stay
adhered to this Force? How does one arrive from fear to love?

Creator
What is the Creator in spirituality?
The Creator is the measure of my bestowal, "come and
see." I don't discover something that exists but it is something that I produce
and there is no Creator without the created being. There is some kind of Upper
Force that I produce in relation to others, i.e. to what seems to me as others.
The feeling of others always remains, the Aviut (coarseness, thickness)
always remains, even when we reach Gmar Tikkun (End of Correction), to Ein
Sof (Infinity). My sensation that I have love, am in unity, in connection,
and there is no difference between us; this feeling is dominate. It covers the Aviut and hatred and everything remains. Otherwise, if there is no Aviut,
if there is no hatred, if there is no distance that on the surface I love and
connect, then where will it be discovered what I build as the Creator? He needs
to be discovered in the gap between the Aviut and the bestowal and the
love.
Thus, of course I need to work here with the society, and this society will
always be necessary for me because if this gap will disappear completely, then
there won't be a place to express my efforts and to produce my attribute of
bestowal, in some kind of form, in some kind of way. There is nothing if I
don't build the closeness, the love and the connection between us on the face
of the Aviut and the rejection. The Creator is that same Force of
connection, the relation to others which I build in the society and therefore
he is revealed between us.
