Is the descent in spirituality painful..? Or there is only rising in pleasure once entered Spirituality..?

[Joseph – KabU Instructor]

Mrc,

A person will not experience a descent without sufficient preparation. It is for those who have been on the path and have made many efforts in connection and to come closer to a true prayer.

As a person develops, so does one’s ability to understand and better respond to the various states sent from the Creator. You should not be afraid of revealing anything on the spiritual path. If you have an environment to support you and show you a good example, everything will be fine.

Is spirituality suffers for others or just doesn’t receive pleasure for ourselves..?

[Joseph – KabU Instructor]

<p style=”text-align: left;”>Mrc,</p>
In spirituality the only suffering is that I discover I cannot bestow to the Creator. This sensation brings me to the need for the Creator’s help.

So if we feel worst and more evil than the majority that means that we already recognize our evil..? After that what happens..?

[Joseph – KabU Instructor]

Mrc,

If a person begins to receive education on what is their nature, and gains awareness of their status with respect to the Creator,  then that person begins to suffer more. This is because in the beginning a person aspires for the goal, but lacks the necessary forces in order to achieve it. But this isn’t regular suffering. It is more like a longing of love. Think of a mother who is away from her child and wants nothing more than to be close to her.

On the other hand, if a person implements the advice of the Kabbalists, meaning to arrange ones environment in order to promote the importance of spirituality, then a person learns how to recognize and be grateful for the guidance of the Creator and to appreciate every opportunity to come closer to the meaning of one’s life.

The bottom line is whether a person feels good or bad depends on the influence of their environment.  We should spend much effort organizing our environment correctly.  Then, once a person feels to a sufficient level how one is opposite to the Creator, one begins to formulate the prayer to come closer to Him, but this is done together in connection with others.

If I feel worse than the majority within reason is that good..? Why is it good..?

[Joseph – KabU Instructor]

Mrc,

It depends if you feel this way because you are yearning to bestow and to be in adhesion with the Creator, and you understand that for this you need to connect and love your friends, but you are incapable.

And so this inner gap begins to grow between your state and the spiritual state you aspire to. In this case, a person’s suffering brings one closer to the purpose of creation.

But if a person feels bad because he is not getting some corporeal fulfillment, then it can’t be considered as something beneficial to his spiritual development. For sure there is no superfluous states or emotions, but it is still considered, in this form, at the very beginning of the way.

Regardless, it is written that one should serve the Lord with gladness.  This means a person should always try to perform actions in a state of joy. And if one does not feel joy,  then he should arrange his environment in order to bring him joy. But the joy should be from having a purpose, and a method to achieve that purpose.

[mrc s]

So if I’m feeling bad because of lack of corporeal fulfillment that means I’m just beginning of the way whereas a person who is closer to spirituality receive much corporeal pleasure..?

[mrc s]

I read that we’re granted what we want if we cry..? Is it true.?

[Joseph – KabU Instructor]

Mrc,

Kabbalists do speak of the prayer and reaching a true outcry. If a person prays from the bottom of the heart, and if his prayer is correctly formated, meaning he is not asking for himself, but he wants to benefit others, then a person receives a response.

Here, we’re not talking about regular tears. A person can cry night and day, but if he will not correct himself, through the reforming light, and learn how to pray, then it is still considered the work in preparation for the prayer.

[mrc s]

How do I approach people to study Kabbalah..?

[Joseph – KabU Instructor]

Mrc,

The action of dissemination has two branches. One method is the teaching of the wisdom of Kabbalah. Another method is the wisdom of connection which speaks of the same things; however, in a language that is more easily relateable to the average person. It is not recommended for people to engage in dissemination until after they have acquired sufficient knowledge equivalent to undergoing a couple of months of education through our KabU platform.
