The concept of “None else beside Him” is clear but it gets confusing when one gets severe disturbance especially after watching Lio VOD class “who are the Jews”. In that class the theme talks about two ancient forces of Abraham vs. Nimrud that are at odd, I think it is best depicted similar to George Locus series of the Jedi and the darkside and they both use the power of the force.
The question is: When someone experiences descents, left-lane-pushes from the Creator That are so strong how does someone know that he/she belong to the Abrahamic force or really belong to the Nimrud force and they are in the wrong group? I am sure throughout your experience in KabU, you run to all sort of characters, do some of the forces of Nimrud show up at your doorstep thinking that they are Abrahamic in nature only to leave later realizing that the attraction to the force was right, but the nature of the person belong to the other side (Sitra Achra)?

Hey Jack,
First, it’s great to see you recognized handling it in a different way was best for everyone else –Â a good quality we should all be envious of. Just to add an additional word, the “law of the land” comes from the Creator, He decides what laws should be, where and when, so this really only has to do with how we relate to the Creator’s governance. Obviously, we do not agree with almost everything He does, and we always have different options and ideas about how things should or should have gone. From the great to the small.
About your question though…
This is exactly the role of receiving additional coarseness, and heaviness in the work. It’s not that my body becomes physically heavy or I become indifferent to everything, no. I could actually be completely full of life and energy to fulfill all kinds of desires, just everything except correcting the soul. It’s heaviness in the idea that there’s None Else Besides Him and revealing Him in that way, as Good that does Good, this is what loses importance and pushes us into a lowly perception of the world. This disconnection is intentional in order for us to climb back. These efforts are what are counted towards the goal of reaching a true request for correction. We’re put in the dark and given a method which is completely opposite to our egoistic, logical brains serving the ego. The only tool we have is nullifying towards the society which will raise me out of that state. This is all our work from moment to moment.
Best of luck,
Chris

Hi Adelina,
This is to bring it into an environment where it is given all the necessary ingredients and conditions to grow and develop and where the shells surrounding that point are pealed off and the stony heart becomes a heart of flesh.

I was wondering if Kabbalists are required to do any specific prayers and meditation. I’ve been getting mixed answers. I was told by some to do the Shema Israel and Ana Bekoach prayers every morning and evening. I’m very new to this so any guidance will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

<p style=”text-align: left;”>Hey Simonetta,</p>
Nope, nothing of the sort. Correcting our intention happens only by the light that reforms. Anyone who is studying the authentic wisdom of Kabbalah only wants to correct their intention to be similar to the Creator – from in order to receive to in order to bestow. No physical actions in this world will help draw that light of correction and change us from within, the only thing that matters is a person’s desire for correction. The more a person wants it, the more the force of correction can act on them.What happened is throughout the years of concealment of the wisdom, the ego was satisfied by making all kinds of physical actions, even reading of prayers without any underatanding or awareness that the internality, actually, is what needs correction and not settle for some action with my arms and legs, or even mouth and by that feel like I’ve come closer to bestowal. Usually a person isn’t thinking about how they can exit themselves, not think about their own well-being. Usually a person is thinking about the benefit of the action according to their ego.
This is what separates the wisdom of Kabbalah from any other method. Hope that helps!

Has anyone ever considered the book of Job’s significance in the wisdom of Kabbalah?  The number 137 repeats itself throughout the text, just so happens to be the value of fine-structure constant and lies in the heart of grand unified theory.  I just thought this is very interesting.
Peace

Thank you so much Chris. This is the reason why I know that I’ve made the right decision by becoming a member of KABU. So much misinformation out there on other platform.

Hi Steve,
Although there are many Kabbalistic texts written throughout history, we don’t usually consider them for modern study since they were written for prior generations that had much smaller desires to receive.
As a result it is difficult for people born today to grasp them. And it is generally considered a longer path compared to studying of more recent writings such as Baal HaSulam and Rabash.

Hello,
I was watching an older q and a with Tony. In it he says that learning Hebrew is not necessary to learn when studying Kabbalah. He also said there was only 400, 600, 800 words you need to learn for the Kabbalah, I am not sure which he said. Is there a list of words somewhere, so we don’t learn words we don’t need. Is it simply biblical Hebrew?

Hi Todd,
The list of Hebrew words required for advanced study becomes clear when a person begins learning about the structure of creation.
These lists exists in such texts as Kabbalah For The Student, The Preface to the Wisdom of Kabbalah, and The Study of The Ten Sefirot.

When I come to Kabbalah, does my will to receive try and beat the wisdom of kabbalah with my intellect?
- March 17, 2023 at 1:08 pm EDT #315378Chris – KabU InstructorModerator
Hey Todd,
Yes. Pretty much. Nice.
But this is normal. We have to go through these natural stages and explore all the options. The ego must do this. It’ll pass!
