Nugget #81 First Triad: Attributes


We covered EMeT (Truth) as an attribute we are to attain.  It is not up to the Creator to attain.  Let’s clarify what this means.

The Creator’s will is simply that.  It is there for us to apprehend and apply to our realm.  Once apprehended we are to bring that down to our level and permit it to transform the world.  What does this mean?  Reviewing Mem will give us the clues to further understand this.  Remember Mem represents water.  Water refreshes and nourishes, or it can destroy or cleanse.  The Will of the Creator is meant to cleanse our will by transforming it from a self-centered ego to an altruistic unifying soul.  After the cleansing, refreshment and nourishment of the lower soul takes place down to the lowest level (physical).  This is our area of endeavor.  There is no attainment within the upper realm. It just is.  EMeT is our work at our level.

We are to unify with our neighbor then with G-d through our altruistic soul.  Our Creator is already unified and thus does not need to attain EMeT.  We are to attain unity not only with our neighbor but also with our creator.  This does not mean we rise up to the Creator’s level.  We are to rise up a little to Mem for cleansing then draw down to the Tav level to unify (refresh and nourish).  Our heaven is on earth through unification not living in the clouds somewhere.

Ask yourself:  Compare and identify what is different between EMet unity and man’s unity as we are seeing expressed via “globalization”?
