Thank you for this lesson. I think every one of us can relate to a too difficult to understand the creators’ intention situation. However, I can fully relate to knowing there is only one reality and one hope. I have an illness called endometriosis and it has been a very grueling 15 years. However, in what I perceived then as my weakness, I truly found the right path. I have a love for our Creator PERIOD…despite the hash moments. Admidadley it was not instantaneous. However, even though it has been my path of pain, it has also been and still is the most beautiful growth and spiritual desire that I will never change for the world.
A long time ago, I stopped asking why me, now I say ok, I am listening, teach me, guide me and draw me close.
Thank you for another lesson. To my fellow students, I pray no matter what we deal with, lets keep being receptors of the creator who is all love
I hope this is not a ridiculous question… but.. most people I know are under the impression that all good comes from the creator and bad comes from the adversary of the creator. Normally referred to as the devil or satan. Is this a sin?
Stanley,
Depending on where you live, there are many different religions and groups that have many different perceptions of reality with all kinds of different forces, demons, angels.
Each group makes up their own story for why life is the way that it is.Here, we are studying the structure of reality and how to attain the Creator. We received our method from Baal HaSulam, the great kabbalist who received it from his teacher all the way back in an unbroken chain for thousands of years.
It is good for you to study with us and discover and for now, you don’t need to debate anyone else or challenge anyone else or convince anyone else of what we are studying.
Let them be with their beliefs.
If the Creator awakens in them bigger questions, then they will need bigger answers. For the time being, this is the best place for their development.
Also later we will learn about how we can spread the wisdom of kabbalah in a way that others can receive it in a comfortable way.In the meantime, they were brought up with some beliefs and they were taught some beliefs so they don’t have any control over this. This is how they were programmed to believe.
We have our work to do, and we are doing it. We are learning about the nature of reality, we are testing it on ourselves, we are advancing with mind and heart, step by step so that we will not fail.
We are working together with others who are doing the same like us from day to day.Good luck and I look forward to hearing good things from you,

The Creator is the only force in this world. I’m sure this also relates to uncurable or life-changing illnesses. How can a person give contentment to the Creator or accept the Creator with love when going through the process of illness? I find it quite challenging on a human level.
I absolutely loved this response to my question and I had to make a reply just to thank you. And thank you for taking the time to personally respond to each individual student’s question. I feel I get lots of info from reading the student questions and responses as well.
Thanks again, and I’m eagerly looking forward to the next lesson!
Massimo,
Of course you are right. How can we give contentment to the Creator through illness?
This is a difficult question. Not because the answer is difficult, but because for us to hear the answer we have to change ourselves.
We start to learn about reality and we start to update our “software”, how we see and feel life.
We see that every spiritual degree begins in darkness and ends in light, as it says, “there was evening, there was morning..one day.”
A “day”, a spiritual degree begins in darkness and then comes the light.
What it means is that first the vessel is received, the vacant place where the light will fill and this gives the person the feeling that there is such a place that the Creator can fill…before that the person didn’t have such a feeling that there is such an empty place in existence that the Creator can fill.
Through our spiritual work, we want to move to more inner discernments, so that the processes of changes do not need to manifest as bodily suffering, but we feel the inner emptiness, we attract the upper light, by being connected to the sources and the group that is working with the sources and that influence effects the empty vessel and it is filled with a different light, one that comes from our efforts together.
There are many things here.
Read this a few times and if you have a follow up, please ask.

I want to provide a tangible example because I want to know what practically means giving contentment to the Creator. My husband and I are in the process of moving house and currently we are dealing with a few issues with one of our neighbours who is trying to get some financial reward out of it even though he’s not entitled legally. How can I bring joy to the Creator in this situation?
Massimo,
A Kabbalist develops another sense.
It is not imagination.
When he works in a Kabbalistic group with others they build between the – & + beteeen them, they build a perception of the spiritual reality above the animal perception of our 5 senses.Also a Kabbalist has to live according to the customs of the land where he lives, so if someone is pushing me in business I have to do all the things that are customary with people in business.
Seth@KabU
If someone does something good to me and I thank them, am I sinning? could I thank God only and not utter a word of gratitude to the person?
Ruth,
You’re not sinning. You’re doing what you think is correct based on your upbringing and you social circle, etc.
On the outside we behave as is customary where we live. It builds warmth and good feelings between people to express gratitude.
Additionally your attitude towards the Creator is happening internally, conversing in your heart.Seth@KabU
We are desire to receive, creator is desire to bestow.
I understand ‘desire to receive PLEASURE’, but what if I feel something that I need to receive and it’s not pleasure? And at that time I reject it, but then it keeps pushing on me, creating pressure in me, stronger and stronger with each day until I break and then I receive it. As this didn’t happen only once, I got used to it and even though I don’t want to receive, I receive it because the Creator sent it to me, which in some way makes it easier. Is this a Masach?
Thank you for your answer.
Marko,
I don’t understand your example.
But what we go through in this world is all preparations, like a child who “cooks” alongside the parent who is cooking. The child can move the pans around and run the water but the parent purchase or grew the ingredients, gathers them, prepares them, manages the stove, etc. The child as if goes through the motions and this builds emotional impressions in the child in order to develop properly.
A masach is already a spiritual operation above this world.
Seth@KabUMore concrete example:
I want to be a peaceful person. I try to act calm, be kind. But inside of me I feel something different, something opposite, anger, hate, a shadow of who I want to be. Then I burry that shadow deep inside me. And everytime it comes up insde of me, I push it down again. But the shadow wants to express itself, but I don’t let it. And then I see anger and hate in other people, like my shadow is projecting itself to the external world. Like: “Look at me, don’t ignore me!”
And then I get it, I am not calm, I am hateful, angry, all that is inside me, I just buried it a long time ago an I forgot about it. Now I recognized evil inside of me and now I’m consciously aware of it.Is this ‘revelation of evil’ work of Kabbalah or is it in the domain of psychology?
Acceptance of this kind of things that are not PLEASURE, but are painful recognitions of my bad side.
This is what I was asking about.
I hope I was a little bit clearer.
