Thank you for everything you have done and continue to do to organize the information and providing this space.
Here are my questions:
1) I wonder, is Adam Kadmon a spiritual world and is Adam-HaRishon the soul? Thank you for clarifying.
2) I understand recorded energy (like a live podcast that is later replayed) maintains its power- can this power be accessed collectively at disparate times (say 100 people access the same information but connect at different times)?
3) How do we know if we are having or have had a spiritual awakening?
Thank you.
1. Why do some Kaballah teaching centers include Astrology and other such “occult” practices?
2. Why does it seem like other organization don’t focus on the Heart point?
3. I’ve been binge watching Kabbalah Youtube videos over the last week from many organizations. I know that I have the heart point and my soul has dragged me through the mud to bring me here. I have many “unifying projects” that I feel have been put on “pause” to bring me to this knowledge before they proceed. In the Kabbalistic journey, the main continuous unending desire that surpasses all other worldly desires, is the desire for the endless connection to the infinite pleasure of the light. Focusing our activities studies on the point, this endless desire for the light, allows us to still maintain and collect our three lower desires as our tools to share our “unifying projects”. Is that correct?
1. **Nefesh**: The most basic level, associated with physical desires and instincts. It pertains to survival and bodily needs.
2. **Ruach**: The level of emotional and intellectual desires. This includes social relationships, self-esteem, and the pursuit of knowledge.
3. **Neshama**: The higher level of desire, focused on spiritual aspirations and connection to the divine. It represents a yearning for meaning and purpose.
4. **Chaya**: This level represents a deeper spiritual consciousness, an awareness of divine truth and unity with God.
5. **Yechida**: Sometimes considered a fifth level, Yechida represents the ultimate unity with the divine, the source of all existence.
These levels illustrate the journey from basic physical needs to profound spiritual fulfillment.
I must say that everything was pretty clear. Thanks! Probably my only question is: Will there be kabbalistic meditations for the following weeks?
Hi Alex,
The goal of authentic Kabbalah is to correct our egoistic nature and as a result to become similar to and reveal the Creator, the general force of love and bestowal. Things like meditation help to calm us down, but ultimately it doesn’t correct our egoistic nature, so it’s not a part of the authentic Kabbalistic method.
How then do we correct our ego and become similar to the Creator? Only through the light. The light is a special force that can correct our nature. Our entire work boils down to extracting more and more of this light, especially from the Kabbalistic studies, and it does all the rest.
We’ll learn more about this in the upcoming lessons, in the meantime check out this blog post from Rav Laitman for more details: http://laitman.com/2013/02/sunbathing-in-the-rays-of-the-reforming-light/

So you say that we have desires. My question is, what happens to desires, dreams, hopes, thoughts that we have, but they never materialize? For example, I want to go to Australia some day. I save and save my whole life, but my life is cut short or for some reason or another I am not able to go. Maybe my life just turned out differently than I planned, even though I did everything right. What happens to desires we have and know of that don’t actually materialize? Did we do something wrong because they didn’t materialize?
Hi K M,
Our egoistic desires are built in such a way that it’s impossible to fully satisfy them. The Kabbalists describe it like this:
“he who has one hundred wants two hundred” and “one finally dies with only half one’s desire in his hand.”
As soon as we realize one desire, it grows in size wanting even more. So we are left feeling even emptier than when we started. This is the typical race we find ourselves with our egoistic desires.
If we want to find true fulfillment, then we need to come out of our egoistic nature and develop a completely different set of desires: those of pure love and bestowal. This is what Kabbalah helps us to do.
