      Is the story of the Midrash historical facts or legends/myths..? thx

      • #287818

        Mrc,

        Midrash is not something we study. Hence, commenting on it would only cause confusion.

      Is the nation of Israel the biggest egoist or the altruist..?

      • #287622

        Mrc,

        If you are referring to the corporeal land of Israel, then within that nation there are those whose point in the heart  has already been awakened, and those in whom it is still dormant. By default, those who are brought to the path have a greater ego. It is specifically the development of one’s egoism that prepares one to receive spiritual discernments. This is how the system works where we cannot build spirituality if not on top of our growing egoism.

      Is sefer Bahir an authentic Kabbalah book..?

      • #287620

        Mrc,

        I have never heard of this book. The authentic source texts upon which this Kabbalistic group are built on are Baal HaSulam and the Rabash. Besides this, a person doesn’t need anything.

      Is it a kabbalistic exercise to try to “love” other even so that we know that we can’t before crossing the Machsom..?

      • #287619

        Mrc,

        Yes, we are told in advance that we cannot love the friends. We are obligated to try, and from the efforts a prayer is born for help from the Creator. But these exercises should be done together with those here in this controlled environment. Regarding the rest of the world, for now, the advice is to behave as everyone else–with kindness, respect, etc.

      It’s written in proverbs that if when in youth doesn’t being Godly then later God will mock and laughed at our misfortune etc..? Is there hope about this, possibly I’m in this situation 😟

        Hi Mrc,

        The Kabbalists tell us that the Creator only does that which is for the good of the created beings. Although we have yet to discover this, we must believe it is so, and go by the words of the sages.

      Thx for the answers, if everything bad/harmful that happens to me is my own fault..?

      • #287618

        Mrc,

        The only freedom of choice a person has is to choose an environment that will influence them with thoughts and desires regarding spiritual attainment. The very definitions of good and bad change as a person becomes more connected with a Kabbalistic group. Eventually, a person sees that it was not possible for him to make a mistake in life, but that every decision brings one closer to the  purpose of creation.
