The idea that blew my mind is that “all the rejections I’ve experienced in life have been sent by the creator.” Previously I’d believed that these were the result of my OWN ego, my own shortcomings and my own selfish actions.
I’m learning from Kabbalah that the Creator sends me thoughts and views that show me just how far out of alignment I am with Him. Therefore I should have the attitude or “welcoming with pleasure” the seeming blocks and obstacles I encounter in this life.
The concept that Creator has a hand in the vicissitudes of my life, that they are sent to me as a teaching and a learning tool by a benevolent Teacher who only desires that I experience ultimate pleasure and joy, is both revolutionary and comforting to me.
………..
Naturally, as a new student of Kabbalah, I’m wondering if my understandings and conclusions above are valid?
Idea that we are all one helped me see the world with more compassion and love towards everything. idea that everything is determined put me at ease, and even if something bad happens I’ll be looking for a lesson there. But there’s is none else beside Him blew my mind … again. It’s not the 1st time i am coming to this realisation but for some reason i keep forgetting. And then it blows my mind again. It’s like this word which keeps going around in your head, something at the tip of the tongue that is so close but you just can’t pin point it and then someone says it and you have this aha moment “aha! I knew it all along!”.
There is nothing else besides him is so obvious so apparent, so in your face that i am stunned how i can keep forgetting about it.
There can’t be anything besides him.
That to ascribe even the “negative” events, or to blame ourselves for the “dark nights of the soul” that we experience is, in a sense, making us a “god”. There is nothing in our lives that comes from anywhere or anyone, other than the Creator. This has very much helped me in understanding the faulty beliefs that Christianity holds regarding sin and the “devil”. Each distraction and hardship that we face, is sent by the Creator, in order to draw us ever closer to Him, to the Light.
The sensation of Ein Od Milvado arises when I consistently reinterpret reality through the lens of divine purpose. With practice, even mundane moments become touchpoints with the Creator. As the Baal Shem Tov taught:
“Wherever your thoughts take you—there He is.”
By training my perception, I transform intellectual belief into lived experience, realizing that every atom of existence is His loving action. On a practical level understanding the thoughts that He put into my mind —even the negative ones—are part of a larger, loving plan can help me feel more at peace with myself. I am not broken or abandoned; I am being guided, even through my inner struggles. This awareness can foster self-compassion, resilience, and a deeper sense of connection to the Divine.The thing tthat blew my mind continues to be the implications of ‘There is no one n Him. ‘The concept is different from what i what I was taught and yet i feel this is true. I have no doubt now that I’ve read it. I still have a part of me understanding that sadness and pain comes from ourselves and our egos. I still have questions about whether everything is predetermined. I am grateful for this course
