Reflect: Share something from the lesson that blew your mind, or even just gave you a new perspective.

Well, I’m very sincerely delighted to be participating in this magnificent course, despite the language difficulties. I don’t speak English well; I’m from Angola and only speak Portuguese. But the little I’ve learned has left me very excited, knowing that I’ve discovered something that probably many generations of my lineage didn’t know. But what has left me most perplexed is knowing that I can connect with or reach the highest spiritual level even while in the physical world. That’s what I really want to learn. In fact, I want to become someone very spiritual. I want to have encounters with God, to connect with Him. I really want to know the truth that the Bible doesn’t reveal.

I really want to know about my life’s purpose, my mission, why I was born, where I really came from, and where I’m really going. I now believe that all answers have answers, and Kabbalah answers that. Please help me better understand earthly life and the spiritual world.

When I was 17-years old I had a dream (or a vision, not sure which anymore). I was taken into different realms and shown the why and how of existence. I desired to know answers to all my questions because I was disappointed and depressed after a childhood of abuse. After I was shown all these realms, I was told I could only take back one “answer”: It was an image of a sun and the silhouette of a bird flying across. On closer examination, the bird was comprised of many birds all flying in harmony as one. The voice said to me, “Know this, you are ONE!”

I’ve never forgotten that dream. Even when I spent time as an Atheist and Agnostic, the dream beat underneath my heart. Reading the chapters from this week’s assignment has felt like a sweet confirmation of this image. Everything resonated and succinctly elucidated what I’ve secretly thought and felt about the world for over a decade now including the reasons for our current separation and degradation of Creator and Natural Law. I’m so grateful I signed up for this course. The perfect moment in my life for such wisdom.

I am rather speechless read in Laitman‘s book Attaining the World’s Beyond, he says that by following the rules of the Creator, meaning receiving by wanting to give to Source, we could change the world as is today. Is there a number or percentage that would be needed to succeed in this endeavour? Would the veiled world change in how it presents?

It resonated with me deeply it was said that the only requirement for studying Kabbalah is that you have a ‘need’ for it – that you’ve looked elsewhere for answers to the big questions, and not found answers.

Egoism holds us back. We need to give of ourselves and reconnect with Nature. The light is the Torah and we need to yearn for a connection with the source

Me siento contenta que los estudios que hacemos con mis amigas están alineados con la enseñanza de la Escuela. Siempre decimos que El Maestro es el Eterno y lo estoy confirmando. Gracias a HaSHeM por todo!
