GRACE ON THE SHALOSH SEUDOS, THE THIRD SHABBAT MEAL
AT THE BEGINNING THERE WAS THOUGHT
-by Rabbi Michael Laitman
Question: Where does thought originate from?
Answer: Thought is primordial. If we delve into thought, we see that we are going beyond time. There is no beginning and no end, and therefore there is immortality. Which means we are not talking about how we feel at the moment, as a certain physical body of a certain consistency: warm and occupying a certain volume.
A person is his thought, his primordial desire, a set of his primordial mental and sensory elements, set parameters, called βReshimoβ in Kabbalah. It is something perfect, eternal, not subject to birth, death, time, or anything.
Question: In what state do we really exist?
Answer: This is the state in which we exist. And all our other states, as if dressed on this thought and are perceived by us in this way. That is what the Bible says: βIn the beginning was the wordβ¦β which means thought.
