PartícipeThanks in advance for taking time to read my question. This guidance is greatly appreciated as in the future I hope to help others to stay focused from what I’ve learned, especially since the “Heaviness” in the work also seems to come and go (as always expected of course)
At the beginning of the year the Creator flipped my entire life upside down. The event however provided me with what I had been searching for my entire life (Bnei Baruch). I understand that the Creator sends us desires and thoughts especially in situations like mine where I’m studying whilst in this aching pain in my heart. Some days it leaves and then it will come back again. Its now obvious He’s trying to show me something on top of letting me know i should fear not being like Him more than any corporeal event that’s taken place in my life. In order to measure my fear against the fear of learning how to bestow. I’ve been reading and watch morning lessons as much as I can to try and find clues as to what he’s trying to show me with this crisis I endured and to correct myself.
So my question is, since I don’t have a 10 yet (I still go to every lesson in Grad env. I can and think of the others there) while im studying; how do i try and find through the text, Like Shamati for instance, what the creator is trying to get me to see (cause sometimes the pain is unbearable but I keep studying)??

PartícipeThank you Vince, great friend for asking this question. I could have typed mine pretty much verbatim to yours. Your question & Gianni’s answer solved a conundrum for me. I wish you the best on your journey brother, keep heading toward the goal friend!

ModeratorEvery article in Shamati is about you, wherever you’ll open the book. Open it and learn about your state. Or even closer to you now I think is Attaining the Worlds Beyond by Dr. Laitman. Every time you feel the pain, open it and see what happens.

PartícipeI’ve learned about prayer from Kabbalah, that only a true prayer is answered. Which comes from a place of absolute need, deficiency. A prayer that is not meant to change the world to fit my needs, but to ask the Creator to change me. But my prayers don’t ever seem to work. What am I doing wrong? Am I looking in the wrong direction for the answer? I keep on coming up to this roadblock.

PartícipeFeeling of Importance
Whenever we are in the group, we are often ask to appreciate each other in the group. When my friends in the ten appreciates me, I always feel this feeling of importance. I wish to ask, is this feeling an egoistic feeling? How can can I direct this feeling of importance in order to bestow upon the Creator?
Thank you

PartícipeHello, can you please help me understand this – the more I work, the more I am more and more in descend than ascend. And what to do please?
Thank you in advance!

Gianni – KabU Instructor
ModeratorDepends what we’re calling a descent. If it’s a descent in my good feeling, then it could be that the more I work toward the Creator through the friends, the more I feel my empty vessel. After all, on the way to the goal I need to reveal an empty vessel because I need to be above it with a Screen. But right now I’m immersed in this vessel. I don’t enjoy the feeling of being peeled off from it unless I’m in the friends. If I’m integrated in them, I can watch what happens to “me” in third-person.
Otherwise, it can’t be that I work and descend literally. This article is related: http://www.kabbalah.info/eng/content/view/frame/32285?/eng/content/view/full/32285&main

PartícipeThank you Gianni! The article is, as always, a spot on 🙂
My descent looks like this: I am distracted by corporeal things way too much, don’t want to read or listen to lessons or articles, it’s difficult to go to a meeting, but at the same time, I am feeling anxious and nervous that I don’t feel any importance, and I panic. I feel completely abandoned, left to my own devices and I don’t like those feelings. It’s hard even to pray! Is this a descent or am I just going crazy?

ModeratorWhen the descent is in relation to the spiritual goal, it’s a descent. “Anything but leave” has to be one’s approach. This is the work that counts most.

PartícipeShalom, I hope everyone is well.
My question is, what do the Kabbalists say about Teshuva? Does Teshuva affect the upper worlds and draw reforming light in a similar way to the texts? Are these two related in any way?
I hope the question is relevant.
Thank you

ModeratorThe problem is to know what Teshuva is. If it’s an action that I imagine I can do outside of a group of ten, then it’s not Teshuva. Even then, it’s not the same as drawing the Light from the books of Baal HaSulam and Rabash.

PartícipeShalom! I hope everyone is well.
My question, Are there any authentic Kabbalah texts translated and with vowel points for us to read and learn from? Similar to the interlinear Bible or Torah classics library format? Also how important is it in Kabbalah to know/learn Hebrew? This would be crucial I imagine? Example, some words are feminine and masculine ending, we know in Kabbalah masculine is bestowal and feminine receiving etc.
Thank you

ModeratorNo, the texts of Kabbalah don’t typically have what are called Tagin and Nekodot. They’re not important because one who attains the letters attains them with these additions and therefore doesn’t need them to be written. Similarly, one who attains spirituality attains it in the forms of the Hebrew letters. So, he doesn’t necessarily need to already know Hebrew. Theoretically, one could attain the letters, words, sentences the way these letters emerged to begin with, which is by Kabbalists attaining the spiritual worlds and discovering it was possible specifically through these forms. Not through the external appearances of the letters, of course, but there are inner movements that we are not familiar with that these letters represent.
Of course, you’re welcome to learn Hebrew, but no, it’s not even in the top ten things a person must do first in order to attain spirituality.
