Originally, the Creator had one thought
and that thought was what? To Share.
To share.
Because we say the internal characteristc
of everything, electricity
It has an energy inteligence
It's not a
inanimate object
in quantum today we know.
There is life going on
in the table.
In fact, 99% is atoms
and those atoms
contain movement.
A beautiful movement.
A beautiful movement.
Everything wants to become revealed
The Creator wants to become revealed
because that internal characteristc
is one of sharing.
There is only one way
that metaphysics
or something of a metaphysical nature
becomes revealed
and that is fortunately
or unfortunately
through a physical, corporeal
aspect entity called the table,
called the body
because without a body
the soul cannot reveal itself.
That internal force without a body
does not become revealed.
So the Force
We call it the Creator
Without a physical aspect,
a physical conduit,
a physical channel
cannot revealed itself.
The purpose of creation was so the Creator,
and this is the only reason for creation, states the Zohar,
was not for my benefit,
not for the benefit of mankind,
not for the benefit of anyone but
because of the desire and thought of creation
which was to share.
And the only way it could extend itself and sharing
was by creating a vessel,
by creating a conduit
creating a channel by which there would be a full expression of the force.
because if there is no vessel, vessel meaning
a body, a table, a bulb
there would never be an indication
of an expression of the Force.
the Force is not expressed unless there is a body.
There could be a soul somewhere hovering around
but if that soul does not become manifested within a body
there would never be an expression
or a manifestation of that Force.
So the Creator in his desire
to share, to become manifested
created many things, of which one is man.
Man was another method, another channel
by which the Force would become expressed.
This is the only reason
the only reason
why creation began at the very beginning.
For the purpose and the sole purpose
So that the Creator could extend itself,
like, we learned to Ten Luminous Emanations number one
the internal characteristic of a good person is what? To share.
That's the very nature of a good person.
We assume that the Force is something of a positive nature
and therefore, anything that is of a positive nature wishes to expand,
wishes to move out from the confines of that area.
To become manifest, that was the only reason
why things became manifest, why the world was created
why one of the entities that were created
called man was created
not for men's purpose,
not because man was created,
so he can keep the Torah
many believe that they are here so they could become good religionists.
That is not true.
The only purpose of the creation including man was so as to
make manifest the Force.
The Torah is not talking about eating of the tree of knowledge
or not eating of the tree of knowledge.
What Adam looked at the tree of knowledge,
he had a full meal, and he didn't have to go to the bathroom.
Because he connected with that internal Force.
Because we know that whatever we eat,
we still maintain a certain amount of strength, is that right?
But yet, a certain aspect must be excreted.
The physicality of it is excreted.
Are we left with anything else? I'd sure hope so.
If we were in a good physical condition
where did that good physical condition or feeling of satiation come from?
It's certainly not the corporeal aspect of the food
because that disappears, that leaves us.
So, if the soul is the Creator...
It's a part of the Creator, that's correct.
Relative to the body, the soul is part, as it says in the Talmud,
It's part of God. What do you mean it's part of God?
they are pieces like the mountain.
You know, you take a piece of stone from the mountain,
I can separate the stone from the mountain and say
This piece of stone is part of the mountain or was part of the mountain,
but when you're speaking of souls
how can you refer to the soul as part of God
meaning at what ever level
the soul has this internal characteristic as respects or relative to the body.
It is a creator.
Therefore the Creator is within all of us. That aspect of the Force is here.
Because there would not be motivation, even at its lowest level
of lifting this cup, if there was not something internal,
or that person cannot lift the cup, for what reason?
because that Force, the Force of the Creator no longer exists.
It's left the body.
A tree that is severed from the ground, what happen? It dies.
What died? Before there was movement, growth.
Now it doesn't. Somehow something disappeared. What disappeared?
The Force of the Creator. What else?
There is only one force. We've discussed this many times.
You know, there some people that consider the table...
