When I took out what is toxic, and who is toxic in my life, I started to see what I need to fix in my life; and started to desire to want that fulfillment of love and light and peace that I always longed for. I find that I get more perturbed when I am around people. I love being alone But the way my life is I have to be around a lot of people. My question is. how can I find that peace and happyness that light when I am around 1000’s people that will perturbe me?
Hi Tricia,
On the one hand, when we’re around thousands of people, we get completely disoriented. On the other hand, if we’re completely isolated by ourselves, then we cannot reach the Creator’s quality of love and bestowal. After all, in order to love and bestow, I need someone to bestow to. So we need to find the right balance between these two things. How do we do that? By differentiating our spiritual work from our corporeal work:
1) We need to arrange our corporeal lives in the normal way. Meaning to work, raise a family, take care of one’s health, etc. As much as it’s necessary to provide for myself and for my family these normal necessities, I must be part of society and around other people that don’t study Kabbalah.
2) Beyond that, there is my spiritual life. This is the spiritual work that I do in order to become similar to the Creator’s qualities of love and bestowal. We do this type of work only in the Kabbalistic group. So for this work I don’t need to be around thousands of people, I only need a small group of people with points in the heart that also want to do this work with me. Furthermore, in our days, these groups don’t even need to be physical groups, rather virtual groups are also okay. We’ll learn about this in the more advanced semesters on KabU, where everyone will receive their own Kabbalistic group with whom they can put these things into practice.

Are our spiritual genes connected in any way with our physical genes? If so, can altering a persons genetics interfere with the awakening of the point in the heart?
Hi Tracey
You can say that the spiritual genes precede and influence the physical ones. They shape us in the necessary form for the exact corrections that we need to undergo to reach the final correction.

As for altering our genes, no it wont affect the desire called the point in the heart. It’s just like if a person undergoes a heart transplant, it does not change the person itself or give this person different desires. Likewise, the changes we make to our physical body do not affect our spiritual desires, which are not found in the body to begin with.

Looking forward on attainment more on dreams, astral planes and how our brain works on this states. I have been experiencing very interesting visions and dreams when asleep.

Hi Liss,
Kabbalah does not deal with dream interpretations. In general, Kabbalists don’t attribute much importance to dreams or the state of dreaming. They see it simply as a state where the brain summarizes/organizes the daily experiences. Similar to how some computers go through the process of defragmentation.
On the other hand, there is a spiritual state called dreaming which is the process by which we transition from one spiritual degree to another. It’s like the neutral gear on a manual transmission, which requires you to switch to the neutral gear before switching to another gear. In other words, in between every spiritual state is a state called “dream”. But it’s not related to the corporeal dreams that we experience in our physical bodies. Kabbalists don’t ascribe any importance to corporeal dreams.
