      Hello good morning

      How i can open my heart? is there a practical way that help like a god name or a prayer?

      What is usage of sephirots? how i use them? or it’s just a structure and don’t have usage.

        Hi Humehr,

        This is something we learn through experience. Each attempt at trying to do this action or scrutinize what it mean, peeling apart this concept and delving deeper into it brings us clarity. You don’t need to recite prayers or any mantra and using “Sefirot” has nothing to do with our imagination. All of it will become clear if you’re able gradually come closer to rising above the ego. That’s it. Kabbalah is essentially saying the same thing over and over, just with slightly different flavors and words: perception of this world means I’m using my ego to interpret everything, perception of the spiritual means I’m acquired the quality of nature and act accordingly.

        Opening the heart is another way of saying you care about others more than yourself. This is how the upper force behaves and so it’s how we want to behave so we can identify with it, become similar to it and work in partnership. This is our ultimate fulfillment but it’s also against our given nature. This is why it’s hidden from us and it’s why our logical brain doesn’t work to our benefit. Opening the heart is bringing the emotion into the driver’s seat and trying to “feel” our way around.

        Best of luck, thanks!

        Chris

        I think your hart is already open, maybe there are one or few specific individual, punctual cases that you haven’t finish forgive it or that, some cases are harder than others and take more effort, understanding or only evaluate more detailed. I am not an specialist only that I think I have been somewhere around those corners.  All the best (About the Sephirots, I live it for a more expertise than me)

          Hi Chris, some more clarification, and thanks for your response. I remembered a comment by Igal during the retreat that’s it’s is recommended we practice opening our hearts and bestowal to/in the 10. Not anywhere else. Most of the information we learn here is to be practiced in the 10 only..

      If someone (family member ) has  abuse you   as a child and you  have devise a way of living with the trauma, which is   strictly avoid being in the same space with  that person. You have forgiven the person but you just don’t want anything to do with him., because he is not interested in admitting and apologizing to you. Is this healthy for the soul

        Hey Bolevia,

        That’s not exactly in the realm of questions about Kabbalah, although I understand what you’re getting at.

        A person has basic needs of food, shelter, money etc., and then there’s the “mental health” which really just points at a person’s general well-being. There are things we need to do to make sure we’re set up as much as possible in this world. Kabbalah doesn’t help get you a job, or a partner and likewise, it doesn’t solve these types of issues either. What Kabbalah does is raise a person’s perspective to something higher, more inclusive and ultimately spiritual. If you think you’re still not “healthy”, you’d need to take the same approach as you would with a broken arm – not healthy > goes to doctor (or comparable).

        We exist in a reality where we rely on one another whether we like it or not. This is how it was built for us. Therefore, we need to use the systems set up in place to help us when we need help. Kabbalah deals with the point in the heart of a person. All of our other needs are treated in this world.

        I hope that’s clear and I hope you can find peace through any means.

        Thanks and all the best,

        Chris

      Hello friends and instructors. I’m reading for the 2nd time the book “The Egoist” by Jesse Bogner. I purchased this from the KabU bookstore. Is Jesse still a member of Bnei Baruch? This book has helped me in many ways. I recommend it for anyone dealing with addiction. I also own his second book “Tikkunim” but the bookstore does not sell it.

        Yeah Jesse passionately wrote a couple of books during his time with us.

        He’s recently moved on.

      Is Satan/Lucifer part of us?  Should we correct that part?

      • #330938

        Hey mrc,

        Sounds like you’ve got a lot on your mind, perhaps going through a stressful time. I’m happy to answer questions but you sent a slight barrage and I feel like answering each one of them might not be the solution.

        After you’ve been sitting on this a while, do you think you can phrase the emotions into a single question or two?

        Hope you’re well,

        Chris

        That’s a hard one. What if you have? Before anything, do you? Are you giving your parents a hard time? Since I do not know the answered, let me tell you my history. My wife and I had e daughter 51 year ago, according to the nurse in the hospital, she was born death even that my wife ensure she wasn’t. I was told and shock dint know what to do, the talk yo me pace me down and assure me we will gave to do nothing, she dint need to be burial and I should take care of my wife in such difficult moment. I did so. 48 years later, we learn that in that hospital y that time was a rig of selling new born from young couples as we. We when back, start moving papers but… nothing come out. Then come the question. If she is in a good family loving parents that did that in order to have a Baby, for she learning this now, will be lighting a fire of hate for these peoples… Is that what I want for my daughter? If she is in a… no so good family the fire will be even bigger and again Is that what I want for her?.

        18 Years ago, our older son, merry a girl y that circumstances, she was delivered by a drug abuse women that give her for adoption and she know every this about… she was a mess, so mess up that our son have to divorce her.

        If I where you, I will thank God, for what ever you have, for be Who You Are and make the best of Who You Are, because there is not one like You.  Good Luck and God Bless you

          I am not a instructor, so please take this with a grain of Salt…. Better take with the whole spoon.

          Let me set a sample about God Fate.

          We have a long table, at one end are 2 chairs for us to seat, at the other end of the table, is a stand with a Bulls eye

          We each have a laser pointer and we point to the center of the Bulls eye, by pointing to the center we are “solving” a problem. We both hit the center point and we both solve the problem, but now the instructor, remove the paper and our pointer hit the wall at the other side of the room in two different points. Those point are “The consequences” of our solution to the “problem”, same problem, same solution but different consequences because we are pointing from a different angle.  In order to have the same one, we need to point from the same angle and that angle is how we approach the problem. Our attitude in life, in our relations with other, even with US will determine the consequence. All possible consequences are there, we don’t see them or know them, we only know, or should know; how to approach the problem. You know, love, forgiveness, patience, care, understanding… Yo know.

          We choose our fate by choosing how and why we do whatever we do. Most of the time we are wrong but every wrong turn is a correct turn, because at the end, we know is right, because is not wrong.

          Thanks for allow me to speak. All the best
