The wick is the symbol of the physical, what symbol is the hottest part of a flame (the blue)?

[Chris – KabU Instructor]

Hey mrc,

I’m not sure if I understand the analogy…

[mrc s]

Is the body (egoistic desire) because of the law of pleasure and pain a prison?

[Chris – KabU Instructor]

The law of pleasure and pain is just one of the conditions set in our reality that operate the will to receive. “Body” in Kabbalah is just another word for “desire” and typically does not refer to the physical body in this world.

[mrc s]

The human is superior to the animate but how about the body, is it inferior to the still as the body is egoistic desire?

[Chris – KabU Instructor]

The body is the animate level. Kabbalists refer to this as the animalistic will to receive, whereas the ego exist only in those who want to connect on the human level and encounter the force that repels that urge. There is a small small inclination we recognize as “self-love” in people, but Kabbalists tell us this is only a slight revelation of the true ego.

Should we forgive our enemies because “they don’t know what they’re doing”?

[Chris – KabU Instructor]

Hey mrc,

The attitude is that this is the Creator acting before you and therefore there is no “someone” who is an enemy, rather the Creator how awakens you to feel that in order to cause a reaction from you to want to rise to the corrected perception.

Thanks!

Chris

Can yesod be more important than hochma? How? Isn’t wisdom more important than foundation?

[Chris – KabU Instructor]

They are equally necessary for the revelation of the Creator to the created beings.

[mrc s]

Which is more higher: smaller or bigger, fewer or more?

[Chris – KabU Instructor]

Can you provide more context to the question?
