164. There is a Difference Between Corporeality and Spirituality. I heard it on 3 Av, August 8, 1948
There is a difference between corporeality and spirituality:
in corporeality, the force precedes the act, as it is written,
“Before they call, I will answer,”
arranged according to the end of the correction,
where
nothing is done
before they have the
strength
to do it.
In spirituality, however,
where it is not yet arranged according to the end of the correction,
but by the order of scrutiny,
the
work must begin before
acquiring the strength,
as it is written, “Who satisfies His word”
241. Call on Him While He's Near
And the prophet warns about this:
“Call upon Him while He is near”.
He comes and says,
“You should
know
that the fact
that
you are calling upon the Creator,
means that He is near.
It means that
now
you have an opportunity;
if you pay attention,
y
ou will feel
that the Creator is close to you,
and this is
a sign
of the closeness of the Creator.
And the evidence of this is that
we
must know
that man
is
not naturally qualified
for adhesion with the Creator,
for this is
against man’s nature.
This is so because, by Creation,
he has only the desire to receive,
whereas adhesion is only to bestow.
However
, when the Creator invokes man,
He creates within him a
second nature:
he wants
to revoke his own nature
and
adhere
to Him.
