17. Exposing the Light

Our sages tell us He aims to connect all the scattered sparks back into One spiritual system - One Soul. Only He has the blueprint for the mechanics of this complex interconnected body.

Our participation is to is FEEL 100% the desire to love thy friend as thyself - This inclination to be like G_d will attract the Upper Light to perform all the corrections of your qualities to form the harmonius relationship required by your role in His final system.

The sages who attained their spiritual elevation understood the mechanics of the Light acting on them through many degrees along the spiritual correction meant for all to receive.
They explained the process in The Zohar and the Study of the Ten Sefirot , The Tree of Life etc.

We also participate by revealling the message from the sages to inspire others to the Goal.

going along with Stella - to me, simply, the world is FULL of ways to expose the light (from within ourselves)! i used to think well - i'm not educated, learned, smart, what light could i have - but we ALL - in our OWN way - can shed what light we have inside - it's great! personally, i just look "outward" - i believe G-d definitely puts things geared to your inner light right in front of your eyes!

I believe that's as Jews is what we are supposed to do, be a light unto the world.

Red flags are flashing in our financial, economic, educational, social etc systems. As we see, band aid fixes to continue the old paradigms won't work anymore.

The global, interconnected world needs to function in a new direction. A higher order of interconnected funtioning and unity is required.

It is time to understand the inner wisdom of the Torah. All those who labour to perceive this wisdom are responsible to spread it until the wisdom is known 'from the greatest to the smallest...even to children'. Then the world will be merited to the new path by the Light instead of by suffering.

What is light? Do you mean awareness? Consciousness? Sustained attention? Light is a force that reveals, heats, exposes, cleanses (as in antibacterial light therapies), and cuts (laser surgery). You speak as if directing the force of light is something we can initiate and control, like turning on a light switch. Well, yes we can if we know where the switch is...

You mention in one of the two volumes of "Bringing Heaven Down to Earth" that the Rabbi M.M. Schneerson said in response to a student's question that, "his [the Rebbe's] job is to help our hand find the switch." I need help in finding the switch!

I think, the best way to reveal the light within is whenever we have the opportunity to talk to even strangers, to link the conversation to a marvel of God's creation or an aspect of faith. I find this works not only in making new friends, but also spreading the word of God. Ofcourse, some think one if crazy. So what! God inspires people i.e. prepares them to receive and then puts us together.

Sometimes the problem includes knowing how best to reveal the light within. Most of us probably feel the shells blocking its personal revelation.

uum! do not really understand how one can expose light from another source. Though agree we should be, at least try to be light to the world through our actions, by setting an example in all areas in our life..
