Many Viewers, One Reality

A teaching ofRav Boruch Ashlagהרב ברוך שלום הלוי אשלגProfile ›

Rav Boruch used the picture of ten people watching a plane from far away, each through a different pair of binoculars. One says it is four meters long, another three, another two. All speak truthfully about what they see, yet the plane itself does not change. The differences are only in the viewers. In the same way, all the variety in spiritual perception depends on the readiness of those who receive.
