Is the body (egoistic desire) because of the law of pleasure and pain a prison?
- October 16, 2023 at 8:09 pm EDT #333069Chris – KabU InstructorModerator
The law of pleasure and pain is just one of the conditions set in our reality that operate the will to receive. “Body” in Kabbalah is just another word for “desire” and typically does not refer to the physical body in this world.

The human is superior to the animate but how about the body, is it inferior to the still as the body is egoistic desire?
- October 16, 2023 at 8:08 pm EDT #333068Chris – KabU InstructorModerator
The body is the animate level. Kabbalists refer to this as the animalistic will to receive, whereas the ego exist only in those who want to connect on the human level and encounter the force that repels that urge. There is a small small inclination we recognize as “self-love” in people, but Kabbalists tell us this is only a slight revelation of the true ego.

Should we forgive our enemies because “they don’t know what they’re doing”?
- October 16, 2023 at 8:04 pm EDT #333066Chris – KabU InstructorModerator
Hey mrc,
The attitude is that this is the Creator acting before you and therefore there is no “someone” who is an enemy, rather the Creator how awakens you to feel that in order to cause a reaction from you to want to rise to the corrected perception.
Thanks!

Can yesod be more important than hochma? How? Isn’t wisdom more important than foundation?

They are equally necessary for the revelation of the Creator to the created beings.

How can I praise and thank G-d if my life have suffering in it?
- October 13, 2023 at 9:00 pm EDT #332850Chris – KabU InstructorModerator
Any bit of suffering comes from not revealing None Else Besides Him. The suffering we feel is an indication of our disconnection–a place for correction. If we ask for correction there, yearn to see all forces and everything acting in the world is only by His hand, we’ll be led closer and closer to this revealing within us and between us. We certainly want to aim towards gratitude for every state since we know it only comes from good, for our good and if we don’t see/feel that, it indicates a corruption within us.
