Did I ask for all my sufferings?
and in order to attain superior wisdom and achieve spiritual elevation I have to endure them?
Maria,
Imagine that there is a mommy and she has a new daughter. She want to give her daughter all of the world, but all the mother can give her is milk and after a few months the baby can start to eat food. It takes a long time until the little girl grows and then she can receive all the treasure that her mother wants to give her.
So in spirituality, there is only light that wants to bestow to us. But for us, all of our reality is far from that light behind many concealments.
All of our suffering is a measure of our separation from the Creator.
As you study the books and learn in the lessons with the other students, the light works on you and you will start to feel how in the places where there is darkness, there the light shines. And then again you will reveal another darkness and again a light will shine there and by this we rise in degrees.

hi, can you help me with this? for example something occured between a friend and I and disconnection occured. I know that beneath this seemingly “bad” thing it is actually leading me to evolve. i changed my perspectve on this but what about if my friend keeps on attacking me? can I take her out of my perspective ?
Hi Elizabeth,
Is this happening between a person in the group here or with someone else?
Our group here together is our laboratory where all of us are learning from the same sources, the method of the kabbalists that we received from them and we are working on it together.
In the meantime, we are not “applying” this method outside of this laboratory. That would be like taking a very precise and delicate experiment out of the laboratory and onto a snowy mountaintop or in the middle of the city streets. There are many more variables on the snowy mountaintop and city streets. Later we will bring our work out there, in the meantime, take what you are learning and integrate in your life the best you can.

Wow. I do not have a question, but this is all sounding increasingly intriguing. I can begin to get the sense of how this can lead to profound life changes. Many thanks for making this available.
to move from knowledge to spirituality, how can we balance desire and the Creator> there are times i always try to do bestowal, but there are times i get abused. how does one balance – receiving and bestowal?
Elizabeth,
We are not bestowing at all. We are learning about bestowal. We are like a child with a baby doll, one day we will be a parent and have real emotions towards a child. Now we are learning about a quality of the Creator.
In our world we are a creature like all of the creatures. You need to be safe and comfortable, you need to stay away from people who abuse you. You wouldn’t see a giraffe going to play among the lions. That is not natural.
Arrange your life with work and family and health and recreation in a comfortable way. We don’t need excess, but a good comfortable life and on top of that we will build our spiritual perception and learn what is bestowal.
You can work on both things in the same day.
Like a mother who can go to work but in her heart she always cares about her child.

From Attaining the Worlds Beyond:
1. Can you please explain a bit more about “Malchut” and “Shechina”? I don’t really understand the difference between the terms/concepts.
2. I’m finding the “faith above reason” a bit of a conflicting statement. You guys say that Kabbalah is a science and not religion. While Science does a require a bit of faith, it seems like the concept is more religious in nature. Is this because the reading defines faith as “the awareness of the Creator?” Can you explain a bit more about why it’s considered a science?

What are the three boundaries mentioned in the reading (page 103)?
Will we learn more about how to identify Reshimot and how to address them in later lessons?
Nicole,
1. Malchut is the desire. The Shechina is the dwelling place of the Creator in our perception. When we take the desire in Malchut and learn to clothe that desire in a garment called the soul, there is the Shechina.2. In the wisdom of kabbalah, we have different definitions than the definitions that the world has or that religions have. Faith is literally an additional perception above the mind. It does not mean that I close my mind or shut off my mind, to the contrary, it means my eyes see and my mind perceives and above that I have an additional sense. This can be like when you go to the gym. You need to do another exercise, the body says no, the mind says, go take a rest, but you have some big goal (to be physically fit, to be healthy, to be strong) and this big goal is above the desire of the body and the mind. All three exist.
3. The three boundaries are Matter, Form in Matter, Abstract Form. We don’t have any way, any sense corporeal or spiritual to reach the Essence. It is written about but this is after the final correction of all of malchut. It is not related to our work. Continue reading page 103, and it will make more sense now.
4. We will acquire tools of perception through our study and our efforts and we will begin to discern them on ourselves.
