The Bible – the original Torah (Bibles today have been so edited that much truth is distorted) is written in the language of kabbalah. If you like the Bible, learn the language first, then, a new horizon will open up. KabU has explanations of Bible passages – translations from kabbalah into English. Rav Michael Litman is great at explaining so many things.

I was 13 when a light went on in my mind. The pastor was reading in Exodus (I think) how god told the Israelites to go kill the Canaanites, including all the women and children. In that moment my whole being ‘stood up’ (inside), without any doubt, a deep knowing, stating: “this is NOT TRUE, my GOD (my Creator) only gives life, He is NOT a killer. Some day I will understand what this means.” Now, more than 4 decades later the answer came: in kabbalah language those are not literal, material stories at all.

Your “not feeling good”, I believe, you’re most likely advancing rapidly. We’ve been so brainwashed so far, so long, that the truth makes us sick, we feel like we are dying. Yet, we are just being born anew, in the truth of the Love of out Creator. Stay here, we are holding you up, the feelings will align when it serves your best interest. Do you feel the love of the instructors answering you, it blows me away! This is my Creator’s family! Namaste.

Mrc,

I cannot answer you specifically because it depends on different factors. Generally, a person feels dissatisfied with life because one approaches life through one’s ego, and we learn that the ego does not allow one to hold on to fulfillments, but rather it presents one with various fleeting pleasures. True fulfillment comes through pleasures of bestowal which we learn to acquire through the guidance of a Kabbalist and under the influence of a society of people who aspire for the same goal.

People who are brought to the wisdom of Kabbalah are those with the most developed egos, and it is specifically on top of this more developed ego that a person can acquire spiritual discernments.  A person’s growing egoism and the aspiration to enter a more altruisric spiritual state gives birth to the necessary forces to bring one into the the spiritual world.  So those who come to Kabbalah are more aware of their nature.

Say you have a basement (or attic) full of junk, and small animals (rats), moths, spiders, termites, etc., developed homes there. You go take look. Is dark in there, you see nothing. You close the door and promise to return later with light and tools to clean up. Decades later, you go to clean your basement (or attic). You open the door, and a nauseating stench makes you step back and close the door. But you are determined, and open the door with a mask on your nose. Light on! What you see is grotesque in so many ways. You clean up one by one, each object that is salvageable and notice the destruction – many are just trash. Was the trash there before you determinately turned the light on? Yes! You just did not see it. LIGHT ON! Now you see the destruction that the ego developed over a lifetime. Of course you feel worse. Did the light cause the decay? Thanks to the light NOW YOU SEE to … clean up, to correct.

Kabbalah is a tool, a light in the dark, and much more.

Mrc,

If you are referring to the study of the wisdom of Kabbalah,  It doesn’t make someone worse. We are on a gradual path of discovering our true nature and how close or far that nature is to the quality of spirituality, which is only bestowal. One who studies the right books in the right environment learns what actions and efforts must be made in order to come closer to spirituality.

It’s written, a person doesn’t actually grow worse. One’s egoism was always there; however, a person lacked the awareness. Once we become aware, we can make actions to acquire a new nature.

The entire world is on a path of learning to be more connection focused. In the beginning, a person doesn’t recognize one’s selfish intentions. The more a person develops oneself in the correct environment, it becomes clear to what extent one is opposite from spirituality, which is pure bestowal. However, these observations prepare one to be able to develop the desire for bestowal.

Rabash writes that regarding the connection with friends, it is better there that it will be within reason, meaning I see the greatness of my friends within reason. If this is not possible, the advice is for one to go above reason, meaning above one’s desire. This requires much preparation and a strong connection with a ten as the action is not simple.

According to Kabbalah, the only sin is not attributing everything to the force called “There is None Else Besides Him.” In truth, before a person has some minimal contact with spirituality, there is no freedom of choice for sin because a person lives according to the thoughts and desires given to them from above.
