Active Participation

glassesbrightblurry1Basically, Kabbalah does not do that so as to tell us what else we are going to experience under the light’s constant influence, from our present state up to a complete equivalence of form with the light called the Gmar Tikkun.  It, rather, encourages us to make our own earnest effort and by our personal and independent participation shorten this process.
 
At that, we go through the same transformations, but they become desired; hence, we, in anticipation of the bright future states, perceive our spiritual ascent, our life as positive and pleasant.  In other words, an active participation in the process of correction elevates man to a fairly good level the moment he makes his decision.
