GRACE ON THE SHALOSH SEUDOS, THE THIRD SHABBAT MEAL
RISING TO THE INITIAL STATE
-by Rabbi Michael Laitman
Question: What is this act of incorporating in the desire of another? Since we were created as egoists, can we sense something outside of our egoism, that is, the desire of the other?
Answer: We are not created as egoists. Initially, we were created in one unified desire that was then shattered in order for the upper force to be revealed and attained, and to resemble it.
Each of us has these shattered particles that are in contradiction with each other, in rejection, distancing, and even hatred. Each of us considers only himself and does not want to consider others, and if I am willing to consider others, it is only for my own benefit.
It is specifically from the state opposite to the one from which we have fallen that we must rise back to our initial state. This is what is happening to us.
