One of our greatest challenges is understanding that there is a difference between a circle and a line
By zevi770 · September 5, 2014
In other words, we see ourselves and one another as lines.
We make judgment calls on both – good or bad.
But what if it is both good and bad.
Another example is, we say something is dark or light.
But that’s a poor judgment call, for relative to the intensity of the light next to the sun, the hottest most bright day is dark and relative to say the vision of a bat, the darkest night is still pretty bright.
This is the field of understanding, like in a ball there may be layers.
And if we see the human as God made us, we truly can begin to “feel” these layers.
Let’s begin above, to begin, we are a soul which is part of God that continually hovers above us.
Now this soul comes into the animal soul – the instinctual side of man – now that itself causes a great dichotomy, for the Divine soul sees the light, the animal soul does not.
Be that as it may, the souls have the use of, top down, our mind through thinking, cogitating and integrating an idea; our speech – mouth.
And moving right along, our hands represent two kinds of emotions, the first is the act of giving, the second, the act of withdrawing, when our heart is open, we give, when we are fearful, afraid, we close off, we withdraw.
Moving right along, as the Baal Shem Tov calls it, we have the pleasure region, but that’s another subject.
Then we have the things which represent the focus and the harmonosity (sorry, there was no real / or shall we say other word to describe it.)
Focus is seen in men who focus to win and harmonosity is seen in women who try to collaborate.
Both are necessary in life, to both move forward but together, not God-forbid against another.
