Moses and the red sea​

English

Bezzdna [24]2 years ago

The crossing of the Red Sea symbolizes an inner spiritual condition in which one leaves egoistic aspirations behind and enters into spiritual desires for love, bestowal, and connection, according to the knowledge of Kabbalah. It is essentially the transition from this world to the spiritual realm, and it happens to everyone who practices the ascending technique spiritually. When we leave this world's egoistic confines, i.e., the desire to enjoy just for our own gain, we must do so permanently. It's said that we "cross the Red Sea" while making such a transformation. Strong egoistic opposition is necessary for the process of letting go of the ego, which manifests as a wish to go back to Egypt (i.e., live under the thumb of our own desires) and continue to be the ego's slaves as before. The country, which has ambitions to leave Egypt, is yet unsure of how to advance in order to become more kind, caring, and giving. As individuals and a group attempt to put aside their egos in order to connect with one another, these states manifest both inside each individual and within the group. Moses' rod serves as a metaphor for a process that kabbalists refer to as "faith over reason" that causes the Red Sea to split. "Faith over reason," in general, refers to elevating the necessity of moving forward on the spiritual road—a path of love, bestowal, and good connection—over the imperative of continuing to serve our egoistic and materialistic needs. Since we naturally place less value on spirituality than we do on egoistic pursuits, it is necessary to create a community of like-minded individuals who share a common goal of spiritual ascension in order to increase the importance of spirituality. For those who place their faith above logic, the Red Sea splits. Crossing the Red Sea signifies our passage from the physical, fleeting world, which is governed by egoistic wants, to the everlasting spiritual realm, which is governed by an opposing, selfless operating system. The soldiers of the Pharaoh stand for the mental condition known as "below reason." The ego that is abandoned when we transition into spirituality is represented by their drowning. Nachson's dive into the water represents this action. Why did Nachshon enter the water before Moses does? Moses is already beyond that stage and possesses Bina-like qualities. In other words, Moses is already governed by the spiritual virtues of love, bestowal, and connection. The country is progressively led to spiritual connection by his connection to these spiritual traits, i.e., wants aimed at leaving the ego and coming into a spiritual connection.  The condition of faith beyond reason kills those desires that do not wish to grow by way of faith above reason but rather choose to remain in the ego. Because they are unable to elevate love and bestowal beyond their ego, they are unable to cross the Red Sea into spiritual accomplishment. A division between egoistic and altruistic drives results from the egoistic desires dying at sea. The sea, or water in general, stands in for life, including the qualities of giving and loving. In water, we are created. Although water is the basis of all life, there are good and harmful waters. The water is dangerous and drowns anyone who are in it when it is still contained by the ego. The entire account of crossing the Red Sea highlights the development of a supernatural skill, the trait of caring for others without regard to one's own interests, and the transition to an entirely new way of life in which serving others comes before serving oneself. We cross a line, move from a life of love and self-giving to others, where we had before lived exclusively for ourselves via the usual ego. Thus, crossing the Red Sea symbolizes a complete paradigm shift in our outlook on life—from egoism to altruism, corporeality to spirituality, division to connection, and reception to bestowal—driven solely by the desire to emulate the Creator, who is a force of unwavering bestowal devoid of any vestige of self-interest.

Can someone please rewrite this sentence.

"That's just how people are, a family had two children. One kid is 2 years older, He was better academically and is well rounded, and behaved whereas for the second child. They weren't failing but nothing extraordinary either, at the house they are slackers and just lay around all day. But they both have the same set of rules. Perhaps one parent is more hardworking and the other parent just does minimum or only puts in just enough effort to get the job done."
