Hey Todd,

Faces aren’t eternal, but their point in the heart is. If you connected with them and came in contact with that point, your soul, then that connection is indeed eternal.

Thanks,

Chris

Hey mrc,

That’s just a more sophisticated ego, but “more” ego is generally something already spiritual where a person reveals more in order to correct. Whatever ego we have in this world is more or less the same ego as anyone else just some are driven more by it while others get by with less.

Hey Andrew,

Thats correct, there are many misunderstandings and misinterpretation of the wisdom. That’s why we stress studying only from authentic sources which we have in our library here (kabbalahmedia.info) and just as important to study from a teacher coming from chain of Kabbalists practicing the method and interperting the sources correctly. The method was established as a path that leads a person towards correction of the ego. If that is not the goal of the study this would be considered inauthentic. As far as we know, this is the only organization providing the authentic method.

Thanks!

Chris

Hey mrc,

In Kabbalists texts like The Tree of Life and The Study of the Ten Sefirot, the upper one is described as lowering itself to the lower ones in order to raise them to a higher degree.

Hey mrc,

If your asking from the perspective of Kabbalah, doing “good” would still be an action with the intention to receive which distances us from the Creator and this is considered “bad”. This is how Kabbalah defines good and evil. “In order to bestow” is good. “In order to receive” is considered evil.

Thanks,

Chris

Hi Varda,

Well Judaism did stem from the misuse or misunderstanding of Kabbalah so there’s this “backward” connection, but that’s it. The study of the wisdom had nothing to do with whether you are religiously a Jew or not, it just so happens that many of the books were written in Hebrew and these texts were typically available to those who understood the language or were around those books by chance even. So here when you mention words like “Torah” and “Mitzvot” you’ll need to redefine them according to the wisdom of Kabbalah and not the Jewish religion which would refer to the light that corrects us and the inner actions that draw that light.

The books of Zohar was written in Aramaic. Aramaic and Hebrew are connected and Aramaic is considered the “back side” of the language. Our teacher explains that Hebrew is the language of “lights” whereas Aramaic is the language of the vessels. I found a post where Rav Laitman writes exactly of this so maybe you’ll like to delve into it more if you’re interested.

Thanks!

Chris
