Hello, I posted on social media a quote that i learned from many of Dr.Laitman’s articles, it says, Rav Kook was once asked “ who can study Kabbalah? He answered simply …Anyone who wishes it”

But someone asked, where does he say that?

can someone help me find the exact quote? I tried looking for it but can’t find it.

please and thanks.

[Chris – KabU Instructor]

Hey Brad,

I also don’t know where that quote is. It might have been something passed down from our teacher that he heard from his teacher, the Rabash and not something that made it into any actual article. I will look for it and ask around and will update you here if I find it.

Thanks!

Do our present life the result of our past karma?

[Chris – KabU Instructor]

Hey mrc,

The only actions that influence the world of cause are the ones that are in line with the program of nature. Certainly if we are working against that program, the program works to bring us towards it again and it’s always a way to awaken us to begin work above our nature and not within it.

Thanks!

Less of a question and more of an observation. But I’d like to know if I’m on par from a Kabbalistic perspective.

The more I study Kabbalah the less I believe in God from a traditional Judaic/Christian stance. Instead of seeing the creator as something transcendent from “creation”, I’m understanding God to be the very fabric of reality. So the only way God is transcendent or removed from creation is in my own shattered perception.  Please correct me if I’m missing something or completely misunderstanding.

[Chris – KabU Instructor]

Hey Joshua, that sounds right. This is the natural progression. I wouldn’t say you’re losing one and gaining another, rather your sharpening the perception, and ultimately you’ll find Him existing only through the environment.

Thanks!

Hello good morning

what is most powerful method to share energy?

some thing like “Mem Lamed Hey” but i want better than it.

[Chris – KabU Instructor]

Hey Humehr,

I’m not familiar with that kind of terminology. We’re more concerned with how we can give strength to the environment and however I strengthen others, I in turn am strengthened.

Thanks!

[Arian parshan]

Hello Igal, I work with some friends of Bnei Baruch who are preparing the Farsi section of Bnei Baruch, and this section requires a lot of efforts. I spend almost 4 or 5 hours in the day to translating texts and articles, as well as the morning lessons of Rav, sometimes more hours, I always try to be in all lessons even morning lesson of Rav, and I sometimes have meetings with these friends and do joint work. Because of this I have lost the feeling of connection with my Ten and I really don’t know if what I am doing is right or not, please guide me

[Chris – KabU Instructor]

Hey Arian,

Love hearing about the work you’re doing. We will always need help in translation!

Losing the “feeling” of connection will always happen and this is exactly how the Creator “flirts” with us. He wants us to chase Him more and not to chase the “feeling”. We’re learning how to work above our ego, without reward and if we were to have a secure feeling, and confidence that we’re doing everything right, we would have no need for His help.

The best route is always to find a way back to the ten and the recognition that you’ve lost that connection is just part of the method. We will always be losing connection – finding connection – losing connection – finding connection etc. This is how we grow. Find a way for you to bring yourself closer to them. Prepare this inner movement and then follow it with an external one.

Best of luck!

Chris

When discussing “the creator” can “the creator” and “keter” be used interchangeably? Or is the creator all 10 sefirot together, or the creator of the 10 sefirot? But then would the creator be ein sof? But then because there is an intention, I would assume the creator is not ein sof but actually came from ein sof because ein sof wouldn’t have an intention with it being infinite. Which aspect has the original intention for giving/receiving? I hope this question wasn’t too all over the place.

[Chris – KabU Instructor]

Hey Andrew,

It depends on the context or what you’re referring to, meaning what aspect the creature is relating to. Like a mother can also be a teacher, or a healer etc. Different as if “roles” yet coming from the same “One” that is the Creator.

I didn’t exactly catch the rest of the question, if you want to try and rephrase. Thanks!

Chris

[Andrew G]

Thanks that was helpful. As for the second part of the question ill wait to ask that later when I have a better understanding of what exactly im asking about because I may have been confused there.
