Ask Anything

Hi Alexandra,

When Kabbalah refers to working with natural forces, it’s talking about this “partnership” that begins to form between man and the upper force, when a person starts their path of the correction. The first thing they realize is the way they initially understood reality to operate, operates in a completely opposite manner than what they imagined to themselves. This is actually extremely profound since we can’t even imagine what it means to have an opposite perception to something we have now, since we only feel what we feel–and that’s it.

However, to reveal the insignificance of the ego, how it pales in contrast to the force that gave birth to our reality and what sustains it. When a person senses that all their thoughts and desires–and all the thoughts and desires of others–are all coming from a single force, that this imagination I had of being somewhat in control of something seems so childish and silly, yet necessary at the same time.

All this to say, if we want to be healed, if we want good in this world, if we want correction–all this only happens as a result of the upper force’s influence. We ourselves have no such ability to do good or to heal, we are, by nature, egoists. We consists of only a desire to receive pleasure and that’s it. Yet, this partnership I mentioned earlier is a partnership that consists of us using our nature in a particular way that kind of “bypasses” our instinct to control or “force” our own ideas and influences into the program of nature and instead agrees to the program and wants to act as the Managing force manages–by means of bestowal. Until we have this ability to use the quality of the upper force, meaning to be similar to it and therefore use our nature with the intention to be similar to bestowal, our actions in this world are futile.

There’s a program and it exists and it’s being carried out at every moment. The goal of this program is hidden, its mechanisms are hidden and the reward of having this program revealed and exposed to us is also hidden. The only thing a Kabbalists is concerned about is finding their inner corruptions and correcting them. If we can heal what’s been broken spiritually, the world will also reflect this positive changes.

Hi Johan,

Kabbalah explains that, like all forms of suffering–mental diseases as well are manifestations of spiritual imbalances. Why some suffer from this disease while others from other diseases, we can’t really know this at the moment. We do know that we’re all connected and all part of a single spiritual organism and each individual part has its own very specific role in that organism which it must live out and fulfill–either in this lifetime or the next.

Certainly, if there is any mental issue, then we have to remember the order of the “permission” that was given to doctors to heal. Which just means the Creator created this whole network with these being dependent on those and this part organizes and this part feeds etc.. So if there is an issue that needs to be treated, it needs to be treated professionally.

Hope that helps, thanks!

Hey Johan,

That sounds about right! As a beginner, you’re basically learning a new language. The words are probably mostly familiar, but nothing makes sense. Over time, the more you read, the more you’re exposed to these writings, the more you’ll begin to absorb the content of what’s being said. It does take time. It may seem daunting at first, but that’s like anything else that’s new.

I promise you’ll break through with time and those layers will begin to peel back and you’ll see the gems of wisdom. Best of luck!

Hi Brad,

Great question!

The excitement is growing, the Retreat is coming closer, and our desire to connect is growing too. Your preparation is exactly this anticipation of the Retreat and being together with friends from all over the world, studying, and working together as ONE.

You will receive detailed information (Zoom link, schedule) closer to the event, and the preparation is our INTENTION and DESIRE to connect!!

Looking forward to seeing you there.

Hi Nasrin,

A good way to start your studies in Kabbalah is by taking our course Kabbalah Revealed 1, https://kabuconnect.com/courses/kabbalah-revealed-part-1/. The course is in English though.

Best,

Hi Alexandra,

We exist in a reality we didn’t choose to be born into. The laws of nature which govern everything from how atoms bond with one another to what governmental leaders are chosen–all exist in this same “bubble”. Human beings, particularly in these later generations are more disconnected from this awareness and therefore we see a world that seemingly ruled by human intervention when certainly this is not the case. Our eyes see multiple forces and not one single force that governs all of reality.

Referring to your question, it sounds like it’s coming from a place where the source of a problem originates in a place other than that single governing force. According to Kabbalah, the approach is always from this perspective that any corruption in our world stems only from our disconnected perception of this single force, which then also points to the only solution–a remedied perception. Therefore, a kind of “forceful” change to the all kinds of “governing bodies” in our world–positions in office and lawmakers etc., is similar to cutting our a cancer without identifying the root cause and treating that instead.

Kabbalah teaches us that this approach is futile since anything that occurs in our world is a reflection of what is occurring in the upper worlds–the causal world, the world of forces. If we want to see a change in this world, we go to the root and change it from there. In this case, that would be the correcting the only corruption which is our disconnection of our sensation of the upper force which is the only reason we feel all kinds of pressures in this world, to push us to that understanding and make the correction at the root level.

So to answer your question, you could say it’s “egoistic” since with this approach we’re only concerned about making life in this world better as opposed to actually taking notice to what nature wants from us by giving us these pressures in the first place, but it might be more accurate to say that attitude or approach is “outdated”–meaning, that’s how our world progressed and developed egoistically, but now that the world is closer than ever to the recognition of the true evil, our egoistic nature, everything that’s happening is only in order to bring us to that awareness which means we need to act in the place nature wants us to act, in correcting our attitude towards one another and towards the upper force and not in the way we’ve been reacting until now.

Hope that helps!
