Greetings, I asked a question outside of this forum and was advised to ask the question here. My question is, ” can an experience of suffering push someone to learn or encounter certain kabbalistic concepts before they are formally taught? In other words, can one’s trauma resulting in a great desire to alleviate his suffering, result in a teaching to unfold before he is formally taught? I am not saying that I understood exactly what I was painting under the influence of great emotion, however the little I did understand became overwhelmingly abundant when I saw a diagram in the first lesson of this course that closely resembled it conceptually and wondered if the creator can drop bread crumbs for a pigeon like myself to follow
Hi Khalid,
Anything is possible, indeed. Nature works on all of us in different ways. It makes sense this would happen since the wisdom of Kabbalah is just research into the phenomena in nature within a person. It would be natural for you to feel these natural emotions outside the framework of “Kabbalah” which is only the method itself.

Hello
Can you explain me how the will to receive in order to bestow can make the pleasure not to vanish, to be permanent?
Thank you
Adelina.
Hi Adelina,
The pleasure gets “canceled” when we try and receive it for ourselves, similar to a short circuit in electrical systems. When we receive the pleasure, in order to bestow it, it passes through us to others, but the “through us” means we feel it.

So is our goal right now is a cabu student to increase our desire for spirituality and if so how do we do that
Hey Todd,
This is the question you need to ask yourself at every moment. Once you have an amswerr, which you find somewhere, whether it’s the sources here or any other material we have which awakens you and brings you the right direction you need to exert in.
Keep going forward. Desire is theain thing. As long as you are full of desire, this is fulfillment, the question is what do you do when you have no desire? Again you must turn to the environment to awaken you, or another trick is to awaken it which awakens you in return.
There are many states and we need to go through all of them. Thanks!
In ítem 48 of Zohar for all:
Can you explain the meaning of “all the generations were suspende until the name Abraham was created? What happened with the previous generations like the generations of Noah?
Thank you
Adelina.
Hello
In our world where time and space exist, can we say that Olam Haba, the world to come, is the future for us and that the future has to already exist?
Thank you
Adelina
Hey Adelina,
Yeah, you could say it exists in potential, but we are talking about states of the will to receive. The WTR will need to undergo correction the way it itself needs to in all the many different corrections there are for each one of us, the question of how that plays out in our world depends on how much we can manage to go through those states internally first.
Thanks!
