This Kabbalah lesson, based on Rabash's teachings from 1990, explores the profound spiritual concept of 'For You Are the Least of All the Peoples' within the context of intentional work (Lishma). The discussion centers on the transformation of human desire—from self-serving ('L'khol') to purely altruistic ('Lishma')—and the inner struggle required to transcend ego-driven motivations. The speaker emphasizes that true spiritual work is not about personal gain, recognition, or even the pleasure of the task, but about aligning with the Creator's will through faith and surrender. Key themes include the necessity of faith in the 'Madricite' (a spiritual force or guide), the illusion of self-effort, and the importance of maintaining connection with the divine through persistent, humble service. The lesson also touches on the role of Israel as a spiritual vessel, the nature of divine revelation, and the cyclical process of spiritual development through stages of awareness, resistance, and surrender. Ultimately, the episode presents a vision of spiritual evolution where the individual becomes a true servant of the Creator, not out of compulsion, but through a deep, conscious choice to serve beyond ego.
True spiritual work (Lishma) is performed not for personal reward, pleasure, or recognition, but purely for the sake of the Creator.
The transition from ego-driven work (L'khol) to selfless work (Lishma) requires faith in a higher spiritual force ('Madricite') and the surrender of self-effort.
The feeling of 'no taste' or 'no reward' in spiritual work is not a failure but a sign of progress—indicating the soul is moving beyond ego.
Israel's role is not one of superiority, but of being the 'least'—a humble vessel through which the divine light is revealed.
Spiritual growth is a process of stages, where each level must be consciously accepted and integrated, not bypassed.

Introduction to the Lesson: The Paradox of Being the 'Least'
The episode opens with an introduction to Rabash's lesson on the spiritual significance of the statement 'For You Are the Least of All the Peoples.' The host sets the stage by emphasizing the paradox: being the least is not a sign of insignificance, but of spiritual readiness and humility. The discussion begins to explore how this idea relates to the nature of true service (Lishma).
The Nature of Lishma: Work Without Personal Gain
“But when a man is in the world and in the world, he will be able to serve his soul. He is a major character in his own opinion. And if he says that the king is great, there already no place for the desire to get this work on the way he agrees with this.”
The Role of Faith: Overcoming the Limits of the Mind
“We have to believe that we can achieve the condition of the LISHMA and not stay in the condition of the self-signation.”
The Illusion of Self and the Reality of Service
“He is not a person because they are doing his work and so it's said that Israel is a part of their work.”
The Stages of Spiritual Development: From Resistance to Surrender
The speaker outlines the multi-stage journey of spiritual growth: starting with ego-driven work, progressing through resistance and doubt, and culminating in surrender. Each stage must be consciously experienced and accepted. The process is not linear but cyclical, requiring repeated return to the starting point with deeper awareness.
“Nothing can change in reality, except for consciousness.”
“We have to believe that we can achieve the condition of the LISHMA and not stay in the condition of the self-signation.”
“But when a man is in the world and in the world, he will be able to serve his soul. He is a major character in his own opinion. And if he says that the king is great, there already no place for the desire to get this work on the way he agrees with this.”
