GRACE ON THE SHALOSH SEUDOS, THE THIRD SHABBAT MEAL
REEMERGING FROM NOAH`S ARK INTO A NEW WORLD
-by Rav Michael Laitman
When our egoistic desire feels bad, it drives us from behind like a whip, driving us in search of happiness. However, that is not enough to proceed in the right direction, because it is not the goal of creation to flee from egoism. This is merely a way of assisting us since it acts as a force to drive us forward.
To aim us in the right direction, we are granted a desire from Above โ a spark or point in the heart which draws us to spiritual development. This spark brings us to a Kabbalistic group and a teacher, so we can grow and develop it.
Using these components, we must build an โarkโ for ourselves, wherein we can escape all the evil, all that confuses us and stumps our spiritual growth. At the same time, we have to understand that nothing can be done about the disturbances, whether external or internal. They are revealed in us and around us purposefully, so we could fortify our resolve and gather strength against them, similar to how the turbulent waters of the flood destroy everything harmful and leave behind only what is necessary.
