Does Kabbalah give any credence to practices like mindfulness, meditation, visualization, and being present? Can one engaged in these practices still consider themselves an “authentic” Kabbalist?

Hi Dustin,
The wisdom of Kabbalah does not speak of such concepts. A person can engage in whatever they like and still study Kabbalah. What I can say is that the sages engaged only in intention. Although this may sound similar to what you mentioned, this is not the case. The intention is an action we make only in a group.

Hello, I wasn’t raised Jewish but when I decided to seek my Creator, I was drawn to make and wear tzittzits what do they represent kabbalistically?

Hi Paul,
Kabbalah views such corporeal actions as cultural customs. You can do them or not, and there are students who do follow various customs, but this is a personal choice and not required to attain the Creator.

Seth, Chris & Youseph,
You are polished speakers, I watched some of your productions on world events. Please watch the below link address (could not insert the link) I run across and maybe do a show on how Israel (Yashar-El) can help in solving these two serious competing needs for either water or electricity. See what kind of reaction this brings in bringing Israel closer to both Cairo and Addis Ababa which can help both countries and bring Ohr Pnimi to Israel from Bnei Baruch Yashar-El. It will also help those of us who are interested in seeing or figuring out how to crack a bigger nut which is seeing peace evolve between Israel Northern and North Eastern (Lebanon & Syria) borders.

How do I know if I have the correct intention to draw the reforming light?

Todd,
A person cannot know if their current intention is correct or not. Only when we advance to a higher state can we say anything about the previous one.
The only way to influence the intention is by incorporating in the environment of the source readings, the lessons, and connection with friends. This will bring me to the correct intention.

Could you explain the article “disclosing one portion covering two”?
- April 1, 2023 at 10:35 am EDT #316522Joseph – KabU InstructorModerator
Hi Todd,
The correction we must undergo is a gradual one. To the extent that we come closer to the Creator we realize how far we are from Him. This is how a person feels himself advancing on the path.
In truth, we only ever come closer to the Creator. However, in order to prepare our vessels to receive the complete upper light, we must experience these contrasting states of being drawn towards spirituality and then being rejected by it.
One moment I feel that there is nothing more important than attaining connection with the Creator, and the next moment I forget He even exists. In this way, the Creator teaches a person how to maintain this connection through ones own efforts with the group.
