The insane versus sane modality

By zevi770 · November 24, 2016

As perhaps all of Kabbalah (this is literally tens of thousands of books based on the primary book by Abraham, Sefer Yetzirah, which revealed the ten sefiros, the cosmic blueprint) teaches:

 

Everything has a soul

 

And a soul has two “insane (in other words, instinctual non-logical”) functions

 

The right side is love

 

The left side is fear (hence two sides to the heart)

 

Now when I love / desire something I can see nothing wrong, as they say “love is blind;” this is why drug addicts, people smoking, or even people in bad relationships will stay in it, often even to the point of death!

 

The reverse is when I fear, I can see nothing right! – now this is a far deeper reality, for we are also tied into the love of self, which is to see myself in a positive light, so if what I love is good (say people) I am happy to announce it – to myself – however if what I love or fear is bad, say drugs or people; then I deny my reason, and create a false reason, that allows me to pursue my emotion

 

In simple words, if God-forbid we feel insecure around anything or anyone, and this often means people – for we have been needlessly bullied and because it is random we cannot identify the cause, hence we begin to fear, sort of like the feeling you get when a mosquito bzzzzs – then we begin to also hate.

 

Now hate is, to use the mosquito example, the desire to destroy – it has within it the word “an” to cause (the source of hate) to not exist.

 

Hence by nature we have two basic insane dispositions / modes.

 

The love insanity (which is why liberals really wish to open all their borders, for they are naive, hence can see only good, and cannot fathom bad; as they say, a liberal is a person who hasn’t been stabbed.)

 

Conversely unfortunately many people are in fear – and be they terrorists, antisemites (obviously the nazis) or any far right (or left) radical, they seek to impose in a totalitarian fashion “their vision!” which is a desire to abuse… (for just as you wouldn’t want another to dictate to you, you shouldn’t dictate to them. – in the end, as we see in the Republican victory, it is insane; for eventually people get sick of being abused, so eight years after the demigog… they make changes)

 

Finally there is sanity – sanity is truth – and it is available to anyone who truly seeks it
