I started to understand more on how the pure intentions of every deed or our works influences rhe outcomes towards others. Starting to reflect on the egoistic way we were created and the logic of trying to get back to altruistism in essence to get closer to our creator

1.There is no such thing as an outside world. There
are desires, Kelim that create the outside world according
to their own shapes. Outside us there is only Abstract
Form, the intangible, imperceptible Creator. We shape
our world through shaping our own tools of perception,
our own Kelim.
2.We cannot change the order of the Reshimot. That
has already been determined on our way down. But we
can and should determine what we will do with each
Reshimo.
…
Actually, our efforts don’t have to succeed; the effort
itself is enough. By increasing our desires to be like the
Creator (altruistic), we attach ourselves to higher, more
spiritual states.

It struck me how entrenched we are in the egoistic perception that its really like a fish in water in the sense that because it surrounds you all the time, you don’t know how egoistic you are. I can’t wait to acquire the sixth sense through immersing myself in kabbalah.

Most of religion speak about purifying the mind and heart, purifying desires, on one hand, and emphasize the importance of love, compassion, caring, giving and forgiving on the other hand. What blew my mind is how kabbalah teaches in a very clear and practical way what is the join between those two aspects of spiritual life by correcting the intention of our desires.

I really liked the videos on the perception of „reality“… and also the clip with the gorilla test; the metaphor with the red apple; the clip on how people reacted when receiving a cochlear implant. Thinking about how selective our senses and brain work, thinking about that programming to select for „whatś in it for us“ , for our egoism, makes me feel rather humble, for I feel itś very obvious thatś whatś leading most people on most of the time. And it feels inspiring to get knowledge about other ways.
Also, I am very thankful that all the material is shared here, and impressed by the way it has been edited, to help understand the underlying principles. While I find the recommended reading needs really time and makes me still feel like there is a bit of a link to religion (not that I would mind, itÅ› just that I am getting that this is not what the teaching is about), I find the explanations in the videos are more relating to everyday experiences or modern science, so I really feel itÅ› helpful to go through both and connect the information. I really feel very touched by the experience.

I found it fascinating that you can only attain the 6th sense through intention. You can not study it or intellectually move up to it. It is all in the heart. You have to yearn for it like the servant in The Garden of Yearning, the lost princess. (Rabbi Arush).
It reminded me of The Beast who could not regain his human form unless he truly learned the essence of caring for another. Pretending by doing the right actions did not work. He could not fool his way out. He had to have the right intention.
I even wonder if I will be able to know my own heart. Am I truly yearning? Or am I deeply curious about this unknown (to me) realm? “The heart is deceitful above all things, who can know it? (Jeremiah…. ?)
