At the bottom rung on the spiritual ladder, where you and I will start, we are disconnected from the Creator. This episode will explain the task, which is to refurbish our desire for spirituality and make it a working vehicle to drive us up the spiritual ladder once more.

In this episode, we explore the concept of spiritual growth and the stages that souls experience. Baal HaSulam, in his "Introduction to The Book of Zohar," describes three states that souls go through. The first stage is the beginning of creation, where everything that will later evolve in the soul is contained, similar to a seed containing a plant. The second stage is the birth of the soul and its stages of growth. The third state is when the soul realizes its potential and reaches the level of the Creator, bonding with Him. In this third state, the soul returns to the first state, but this time it is a conscious and mature act.

An analogy is made to a baby's growth, wherein in the first stage, the baby is at the mother's height as she holds it next to her chest. In the second stage, the child stands and grows from below. And in the third stage, the child becomes fully grown, reaching the mother's level as a conscious and mature adult.

The cycle of spiritual reality is compared to a ladder, with the Spiritual Light at the top, representing the starting point or the zero point. This starting point is referred to as Phase Zero, and it marks the beginning of the circle. The ladder has five stages and four steps because the cycle starts at the root or zero. A barrier at the end of Phase 4 stops the Spiritual Light, except for a fraction of Light that evolves into our universe.

The five levels of desire in our world correspond to the five cycles in the spiritual reality of the Upper Worlds. Throughout this chapter, the number 5 reappears in different ways, describing various aspects of the Kabbalistic journey to spiritual attainment.

In this particular episode, we will discuss the work of the most "general" of all Kabbalists: Rav Yehuda Ashlag (Baal Hasulam). Rav Ashlag clearly stated that the study of Kabbalah is open to all, the Kabbalah can be revealed, distributed, and taught to all, without any regard to age, race, gender, or religion. Also, this episode introduces the way Kabbalistic texts work and how they have been developed over the centuries to make their wisdom more available and accessible to all.

Aspiration, or wish and other words that mean desires, its main role in the evolution of creation in general and in the recent revelation of the Wisdom of Kabbalah, in particular, can be learned from the history of the Wisdom of Kabbalah. This episode will devote the following parts of this lesson to that topic.

This episode explores the progression of human desires, from basic needs to the highest level: the need for spirituality. You can begin a serious study of Kabbalah only after you have obtained that need; it is the way to understanding the role of the Creator and our own role in the world.

This episode will expand on the concepts presented in Episode 4, to show how Kabbalists understand the Creator and what the Creator wants for us.

This episode also explores more fully the nature of reality and what we see and don't see about reality. We will also learn more about the power of free choice and how to focus our minds on what will help us change our lives for the better.

Throughout the poem, The Ari emphasizes the importance of spiritual connection and unity, emphasizing that all things are ultimately connected to each other and to the Upper Reality. He speaks of how the branches of the tree of life reach out to touch the Upper World, and how the leaves rustle softly in the wind, whispering secrets of the divine to all who listen.

Ultimately, "The Tree of Life" is a beautiful and inspiring poem that offers a glimpse into the concealed depths of the human soul. Its message is one of hope and unity, reminding us that we are all part of something greater than ourselves and that by embracing our spiritual connection to the world around us, we can find our way to spiritual attainment, and fulfillment.

I think that this poem, in general, gives some idea about the upper world, it attracts people. I would recommend introducing it into the Kabbalah teaching program.

Without us feeling some of its fragments, we cannot advance. This gaping emptiness sometimes is revealed in us, and due to the feeling of spiritual hunger, we are already rushing toward the goal.

Believe me, it is necessary. Otherwise, we will not budge! After all, we are egoists. In order not to remain in the vacuum, namely to fill ourselves, we need to feel that we are in the vacuum.
