Circumcision for the English soul
Question Seville, Spain: Should we be circumcised on the physical level to feel the same intention at the level spiritual ? Is it limited to the spiritual man in the corresponding actions are not met in material?
Answer: I have explained many times that the material actions do not determine anything in the spiritual! All corrections are made in relations between people.
There are only two fixes:
1) The provision by the grant, or: Do not do to others what you do not want done to yourself.
2) The receipt by the granting or: Love your neighbor as yourself .
With the first correction reach the quality of Bina, the granting ( Jafez Hesed) and the second correction reach the qualities of Keter, the Creator. There are two stages of correction which the Torah speaks.
According to these corrections are 613 tips and guidance of the Torah (" eitin " and " pkudin" ). All these are actions for the correction of desire. And when we speak of circumcision (brit mila ), this is the correction of desire, of the prohibition on use beyond the Sefirot Yesod , so long as this correction.
And no physical operation will help man to be the grantor. Think spiritual corrections. But every man according to his estate can follow their traditions. Baal
HaSulam , describing the future society corrected in the article, The latest generation, says that every one can stay in their religion. This does not hinder the spiritual development .
Although the traditions of Judaism differ from other traditions that reflect the true spiritual laws are just a habit to meet in this world with the culture of a people.
