      In Kabbalah there is an invitation, a curiosity to position ourselves slightly differently from other teachings. We are invited to see the EGO in a different way, most religions, and spiritual teachings promote that we get rid of the ego.  In Kabbalah we are invited to develop a relationship between the inner tensions of our desires and aligning it with our Creator.

      Its always been this inner tension that’s preoccupied me in this lifetime.  This dance, act of surrender, growth, deeper understanding  and stretching and growing has brought me to this teaching.  Kabbalah provides the signposts in the fog.

      The will to receive <—-> will to bestow duality has really got me thinking a lot. This is definitely a concept that is new to me. I’ve been thinking about how selfish I have been and that I want to find ways to bestow… to give. I’ve always had an issue with people who seemed to give/bestow as a way to show the rest of the world that they are generous. This usually means that they are bestowing in order to receive a reward, but perhaps I shouldn’t be so judgmental, because it really takes a lot to “bestow in order to bestow” without any egotistical desire. If this topic intrigues anyone, check out Rav Laitman’s summary of Rabash’s article “The Matter of Bestowal” which I am linking here:

      I also like the description of reality processing. 5 senses bring the data in, we process it in our machine, and there you go, our perception of reality. Like the snake Oroborous cycling over the same process for eternity… Until we need to develop a 6th sense.

      Adam Kadmon and the shattering is also fascinating. I have known of the concept but it is refreshing to see it in context of The Law of Equivalence Form.

      The ego is not a bad thing, it is how we use or allow our ego to develop that is important.

      Do not take the teaching at face value but test every thing and make it your own.

      That Kabbalah is not mysticism.
