What is the fear of God, in psalms it says I gear no evil but Kabbalistic books tells that fear of God is fear of his punishment, how do I revoncile this thank you
Hey mrc,
We should interpret this as a kind of “spiritual fear” or “awe” where we aren’t able to bestow to the Creator. This should be our fear. Not that we are afraid of a state which is bitter and not good for the ego. This is corporeal fear.
When talking about reward and punishment, this also isn’t with respect to bitter and sweet – what’s good for the ego or not – it’s still the same approach where I fear I won’t be able to bestow to Him and this inability to bring Him contentment and to do good to Him is a punishment for the created being.
Thanks!
Not sure what you mean here….
No, no state is forever but also you don’t want it to be forever.
Spirituality is the constant changing of states. The Creator reveals the “broken” and you ask Him to repair it. From state to state.
In that respect, this is what should not change. Although the states constantly change, your attitude towards them should not. Just as the Creator constantly bestows and does not change, so do we yearn for that same attitude.
We can’t really judge anything. Of course, this is something we naturally do, but gradually you will come to immediately counter that with the thought that it’s the Creator showing you your own flaws.
Everyone is carrying out the Creator’s plan and acting only towards you for your own correction. This is how we should approach reality. That includes people at work, family, on the street. That doesn’t mean that they won’t be “wrong” according to the rules and laws of our world – that’s for the judicial system to determine. Your attitude towards them though, this is what you should check.
Hi, I actually have a question about finding a song. About a month ago, in the lesson, they played a Kabbalah song that was a remake of La Bamba. What is the name of that song? I’m trying to find it for my friend. Thank you!
Karma would infer that there’s some power man has on his end in the actions/decisions they make and the upper force reacts accordingly. This is incorrect.
A person has no control and this is where the wisdom of Kabbalah explains the path of coming to accept that the Creator rules everything – none else besides Him. How a person accepts His leadership is man’s correction.
The Creator only brings a person toward the good. There is no deviation from that, even if it seems to a person that it isn’t so.
