Rabash. What Is Above Reason in the Work?. 6 (1989) [2026-06-10] #lesson

The episode explores a profound Kabbalistic concept: the idea that true spiritual advancement transcends human reason and requires a radical surrender of ego-driven logic. The speaker argues that the 'king of Israel'—a symbol of divine sovereignty—is not a figure accessible through intellectual understanding, but only through a conscious, faith-based acceptance of a higher reality. This acceptance, described as 'believing what you don't see,' is the core of spiritual work. The lecture emphasizes that all human effort, desire, and even suffering are not for personal gain but are tools to reveal the Creator's presence. The ultimate goal is not to 'get' something from the divine, but to align oneself with the divine will—what the speaker calls 'being for the Creator'—even when it contradicts reason. This shift from self-centered striving to selfless service is the essence of the 'sixth wisdom,' a level of consciousness where one no longer seeks personal fulfillment but becomes a vessel for divine revelation. The episode concludes with a powerful call: to stop using spiritual practices as tools for self-improvement and instead use them as instruments of surrender, transforming every experience into a step toward revealing the King of Israel in the world.
