      From the Creator and Israel went into exile:

      “This means that if a person sins while being in the land, meaning if he receives some illumination from above and uses it for his own benefit, meaning says, “Now that I have some flavor in Torah and Mitzvot [commandments], I don’t need faith above reason.” This is called a “sin” because he has blemished the faith above reason.”

      How does this relate to the given that it is better to see the merits of the friends within reason if possible, instead of above reason?

        That’s something else. This passage is about attaining some level and then starting to enjoy it, within reason; accepting my state as coming from me, so I no longer need the Upper Force.

        The second reference is to a state where instead of needing to rise above the bad I see in my friends, I now see them as truly corrected, I love them, and so on.

      Is it appropriate to send uplifting messages with intention to bring connection to the group in personal Telegram messages and not in the group messages. I.E. new Friends enter the group and they are making great efforts to arrange their schedules to make group meetings – send them a personal note of appreciation or if a Friend is felt to be leaving a meeting really down send them a personal message of their importance to the group and try to uplift them?

      Hi Gianni,

      Great YG class on 7/4. One of the WS questions was, what should we do when we feel like cursing the Creator, due to heavy blows, i know we discussed in the groups, but do you like have a concrete answer to this one? let me know.

       

       

      Thank you

        Connect to the friends anyway. In the connection the correct approach is revealed in me, that He’s giving me opportunities.

      I really appreciated the teaching point in the ‘Sunday Meeting with Friends’ session from 24-03-2024.  It was highlighted that Kabbalah was historically concealed because, in earlier times, the lack of distractions meant that masses would have naturally gravitated towards spirituality. Now, in the 21st century, with numerous distractions, those who seek out Kabbalah are driven by a genuine desire, or a ‘point in the heart,’ for spiritual growth.

      How does a person determine what necessities are?

      • #367791

        This is mostly in the necessities of thought. What really requires my attention in order to maintain a regular life in this world? Or, could I be thinking about the friends and how to be more connected to them and to the Creator?

      What is reward and punishment in the work?

      • #367681

        It’s that we live in a closed system of concrete laws. Against every thought and action is a reaction in the system like throwing a ball up, I’m certain it will come down. But unlike with gravity, one doesn’t see the rest of the ocean of laws he is in – until he is awarded that degree called revelation of reward and punishment. The concealment is so we an show how much – without this revelation – we would like to live under the law of bestowal.
