Where is the place of your glory ?

Rabbi Natan wrote about this: before a person can merit receiving any revelation, knowledge, or new understanding about the Torah or about serving HaShem, which is equivalent to receiving the Torah itself, he must first go through what is considered "desert," which is the obstacles, confusion, doubts, overcoming worldly desires; descents, falls, failures, etc.

When a person overcomes and overcomes all these difficulties and impediments, he or she will merit new revelations and understandings about the Torah and his or her service to the Creator.

When a person is surrounded by so many obstacles from external forces, that is, by all the confusions inherent to one who wishes to draw closer to the Creator, when trials, worldly desires and bad qualities overwhelm him, he does not know which path to follow to escape the darkness in which he finds himself immersed and does not know how to find the Creator in the midst of what is happening to him, but, despite everything, man cries out to HaShem:

"Where is the place of Your Glory? Where are You, Creator of the universe, in all that is happening to me, in the midst of all the filth and impurity that flood my thoughts?"

When man cries out in this way, then he is truly seeking the Creator, and then the fall itself will be transformed into ascension!
