<p style=”text-align: left;”>Why im not as happy as everyone else, I study Kabbalah, I think I’m zealous for God’s Mitzvot although I’m not loving him as much as many people I guess coz I feel bad..? I don’t understand</p>
Hi mrc,
We are all different. You can’t compare us. However, there should be a level of fulfillment a person arrives at on the path when they start revealing what it is they’re actually engaging in. When you see there’s nothing else in the world except finding the path of truth. That there are many pleasures in the world, but you can’t enjoy from them. This, in the right context is actually a very joyful revelation – that you have in your hands the path to truth, instead of being stuck in a bad dream you can’t escape from.
Best of luck,
Chris
Hi mrc,
Go back to none else besides Him. Even though it’s just words. Look at yourself from the side. The more you go into yourself the more disconnected you are from the true reality.
Thanks!

Hey Joe,
You’re probably referring to the group a person invests themselves into in order to apply spiritual work in a practical way.
After you’ve finished the courses here, you’ll be organized along with others on the same path, into a group of about 10 for you to begin you spiritual work with them.
This is the work of Kabbalists since you’ll learn there is no Creator without the created being. And a single person is not considered a created being. Throughout the course you’ll learn what the work is along with many answers to questions you’re not even asking yet and when you have the basics, you can begin the work.
Thanks!
Chris
How do we come to know the 613 corrections? How do we study the Torah or is it by reading the Zohar we come to know both things and does that start with the book Introduction to the  Zohar ?  Thank you. Also does Kabbalah speak of a person using foul language?
Hey Joe,
These corrections are places we are opposite to the Creator and when we “correct” those desires we use them in order to bestow. “Studying the Torah” is putting yourself under the influence of the light that reforms which brings you closer to the correction and has nothing to do with reading stories in a book. Rather if you approach Kabbalistic sources with a very scrutinized and sharp intention, knowing exactly what you want as a result of the study, then with this aim of coming closer to the quality of bestowal you are drawing those correcting forces on yourself. This is what Kabbalists refer to as “study”.
About the foul language, it’s like a child who spills a drink but has no idea it’s defined as “spilling a drink” or that it’s “causing a mess”. Of course someone who wants only to justify the Creator and do Him good has a different approach to life and how they relate to reality, but you still can’t judge an actions performed on the outside and relate that to what you imagine is happening on the inside. It’s just two different worlds. You’ll never know the inner world of someone else.
Thanks!
Chris
It’s your fault as much as it is your fault for being born.
You’re in the system but our natural program which causes us to feel suffering by sensing reality egoistically. Come out of your ego and there is no suffering since what’s outside the ego is only the force of bestowal. If you’re there then you’re equivalent to that force and are fulfilled by being like it, by giving and only have a deficiency to give and bestow more and are not concerned with receiving which is the root of suffering.
