Inner Workings of Moshes Torah
Here is the translation again, with references to HASHEM and related Divine concepts capitalized:
"Visions are those who see G-dliness not through illusions, but in revealed unity. A person who sees something worthy of being seen before the change, until he remembers the Light that is expressed in the sweetening of the lights and the sweet judgments in a transformed little state, arousing the eye of intellect until he sees voices and lightning in holy sweetness. Before the Name sees a small example, according to his root, he will use the Name that will be revealed to him and will be defined as a real spirit, possessing a soul that is a soul that will merit to lead his portion in the world until he draws good from the good, and it is good for him that the Name will be truly used. He should desire only to see His Light, and reveal the Kingdom of Heaven as the kingdom of the earth, against the earthly kingdom. He should see that the Kingdom of Heaven rules over him and over his children. Possessing a soul, he should return in repentance when the desire to be called by the Name in repentance arises, and return to the Name with strength and with the desire to give thanks, for the Name is King in the world, to cause the desire to rise and to ascend continually. From time to time, when the King's Name is remembered, it is good to remember the many who yearn for the Name until he feels devotion to the Name in self-nullification, pure and absolute, and firmly decides that we may grasp and cling to the sweetening of souls and be strengthened in the correction of unity, which spreads sweetness like the wars of the world and the hidden world within him. And so may the person be pleased, and even his ascent, and his soul will see visions of G-dliness."
If you want, I can also give a simple explanation of what this is saying in practical, day-to-day terms.
