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

„Love thy neighbor as thyself“… this is just mindblowing all by itself. And to understand that the impact of  any action will be determined by the intention that leads it… that is really getting me… ☺️☺️☺️

Since the beginning, I have been both thrilled and struggling with the idea of the single soul of Adam being shattered and fragmented to fill our world population today, and also with the incarnations of the same source/bed repeating through thousands of generations. It makes sense, I feel connected to it, but it has gone against the teaching I have believed about the sleep of death and the resurrection. I actually feel much better knowing that all of the fragments will make it back into the Unity of the Collective Soul, that none will fail ultimately. I am rejoicing to know that the Creator will cause all of the fragments to return from His Thought of Creation.

My perspective has been completely changed by the Wisdom of Kabbalah — I see it everywhere—it speaks to me in every spiritual endeavor. My intention to ascend the ladder and make the corrections in the face of the strong desires of the Reshimot is strong. I am crossing the veil. I have always wanted the connections to the Creator and to the souls around me. Thank you for releasing this knowledge to us all. I am eager to make the corrections and connections.

Love your neighbor as yourself, solves the problem of keeping the mitzvot.

What blows me away is the idea that, as spiritual growth advances, our ego keeps up, growing as we advance. And this is all part of the Plan, just the way the Creator wants it. It goes right back to the first lessons, when we learned that the one, collective soul had to be shattered so that we might all learn how to consciously put ourselves together again. That was the “macro” level. On the “micro” level, it’s a battle we all fight between spiritual growth and ego. But the really amazing thing is that this tit for tat, back and forth process is normal. It’s necessary. It’s the Plan. So I now have an entirely new perspective on my own egoism, as well as the much discussed epidemic of egoism/narcissism in today’s world. We’re in a rough place. Things look bad. But it had to get to this point. And now I know that, as terrible as the current state of the world seems to be, there WILL be a happy ending. In fact, the dark days we’re living in are proof of that. And thanks to Kabbalah, thanks to the Creator’s love, I feel prepared. With His help, we can do this people! We always could. It’s always been our destiny. We just didn’t know. But one by one, we’re waking up. We’re learning.

That we always feel we are doing good however it has really woken me up to see that 99% of the time our good is based on making ourselves feel good. Its one extremely difficult process that one needs to constantly mindful and aware for whom we are doing the good deed for and the inner work is far greater than outer action. I now see the great importance of surrendering and asking the creator to change us.
