I was hoping that Kabbalah could help me understand the horror of 50,000 people including women and children being killed in Gaza, of one million Ukrainians and Russians killed in Ukraine and Russia, one million who died in Irak when we invaded the country under false pretenses, or the members of minorities being assassinated and women being bullied in Syria as we speak.
My question is what is the justification for that happening. As a Christian I can’t answer that question satisfactorily and therefore I cannot respond to this horror.
As a student of Kabbalah, will I be able to answer that question and adopt the response that makes sense from the perspective of receiving in order to bestow, or are dead bodies among rubbles not a topic that has any relevance to Kabbalah?
A Kabbalist can answer himself, but you won’t receive a satisfactory answer for why it’s allowed to happen. You have billions of egoists doing what seems good to them, and no matter how it looks, each and everyone justifies himself. We’re having a dream that it’s all happening, because this dream develops us. Through it we realize what we’re really made of. If we really realized it, none would be able to keep doing what they’re doing. Until then, one maims and murders while managing to tell himself that he does good. It’s really to that extent. And there is nothing that can be done – not education, change in government. You can do it, but it will only exchange one evil for another. Because – again – this dream we’re in has a different purpose from such reforms, for each one to reach the revelation of his own evil: that is, the extent to which (an unlimited extent) he uses his Will to Receive, not only not in favor of others, but to serve himself, and even if it costs others greatly and benefits me to a minuscule extent. For them to stop doing this, but still remain the same inside, that is to not yet realize that they are evil, is not an acceptable outcome for the Creator. Usually, we just want them to stop doing it. The Creator disagrees with such coercion. Rather, each has to recognize deeply what’s in him, that he’s just like all those evildoers, deep down, in the part of his nature that still remains concealed from him. And all this, he needs to correct, through the Reforming Light in the wisdom of Kabbalah. He needs this Light both to realize that he needs correction, and then to make the correction, in that order. All those you speak of still think, “I’m great. It’s everyone else but me…” You see this is a few steps of concealment away from even beginning the correction.
Can you explain how the suffering we thought we had before was not really suffering, but that, we only start to suffer when we study Kabbalah?
My questions/thoughts:
If I understand Kabbalah correctly, it teaches me that I have no control over anything. My biggest impact in this reality is my intentions and the connection to “the friends.” I am a network, not an individual. The Creator will move me along the process at the appropriate time.
The ah-ha moment is the awareness that my senses perceive a false reality. If these ideas are actual, they have been a burden for a while. Because with this knowledge, I feel neutral, a “nothingness feeling,” which makes it hard to pursue Kabbalah.
I can learn, but that is only head knowledge. If my perception is true, these feelings and thoughts are a burden, and I think, “Now what?”
If my perceptions are incorrect, I would appreciate some insight. It feels like I am fighting between living to gain knowledge or waiting on the Creator to make a move: like a chess game.
Without choices…what’s the point? Just curious…..Thank you!
My question is are there any on earth who have attained knowing via Kabbalah?
Is it just an intellectual knowledge or are there those who have transcended to actual experiential awareness?
Hello,
I have a question. My name is Markéta and I live in Czech Republic. I have to say that I already have been interested in Kabbalah for some time. And because I like history a lot I found some time ago that in the times when in my homeland ruled an emperor Rudolf II, there probably lived very good Kabbalists in Prague. I mean Maharal Rabi Löw and his student David Gans. I must say that I feel very strong conection to these two people, especialy to David without any real reason. They are my big inspiration to study the Wisdom of Kabbalah. So I may have a quite untipical question: “Is there any possibility that I knew these people in some of my previous incarnation?” I know my question may sound pretty strange, but I realy long to know the answer. Thank you very much in forward.
Shalom
MarkétaHi Marketa,
Sorry I missed this question. There have been people who attained the spiritual world, less in the way of teaching, but in making corrections, which bear some correlation with corrections in the places they happened to be in our world. Sure, it can be that being from the area they were in, a certain preparation was made there, among the people, and so you feel some closeness to them. These are Kabbalists that studied in secret, left no method of study for others, but made corrections that others would later be able to work from.
