Dear KabU,
Re Mike Kellogg. Jan 5, 2023 – Become Partners with the Creator
At the beginning of this class, in the opening readings, Beth and Tiffany read from various sources, one such said “and the new word of wisdom rises and sits on the head of the righteous one who lives forever . . .”
My question comes from a place of intrigue, is this wisdom which rises and ‘sits on the head’ as referred to the same as that which is frequently depicted in iconography and art as the Halo at the head of an illumined individual; in our lexicon ‘Keter’. the crown of crowns?
Last question, I love the initial readings, I can’t actually follow them intellectually {I not too familiar with many of the terms and meanings or can’t recall the meanings quick enough before it moves on} and therefore l just follow the words more as one would listen to music. These opening excerpts do not need comprehension just recognition. I am moved somehow I ‘get it’. is this the right way to go about it, I mean let it flow in?
Thank you, Lyndon S

Best is to dispense with all these depictions. Like Rav said, try to feel, without too much imagination. It’s better not even to think of Keter as “crown”. It’s better I don’t know the Hebrew. The internal definition has as little to do with the image we have as do the ones and zeros that create the image of a crown on a computer screen. We just search for these concepts to the extent we can feel them in our connection, and to the extent that we can’t feel them we search for the Light to work and bring us to connection, in which we will certainly feel them, as they are all nothing but forms of our connection in the ten.

Dear KabU,
Regarding the connection / unity with the friends in the 10, the actual doing of this is a mystery. I can just say “oh yeah, were connected and unified” but this doesn’t change the fact that I am just as disconnected as always as I am still far from being able to truly achieve this superhuman state of connectedness and unity as I’m completely stuck in my own interest and ego.
The only thing I have is a profound desire to make a connection and unify but I don’t know what it looks like, feels like or indeed what to desire to do this so every time I think about doing it I just crash back into being me again.
Are there any exercises we can do in the 10 meetings that may be beneficial in focusing us in aspiring to a common connection and unity, I mean, practical things like contributing to a poem, exercises, games and tasks which may help facilitate this process as based on other 10s’ experience and your suggestions?
There is a fear that I may well think in the future that I am connecting and being unified but my ego is just the driver behind it and i am tricked again so i am wary of this.
Thank you, Lyndon S.

You can try everything. It depends on the effort and the request. You knock on the same door but each knock will be a bit different. The Light will shape these knocks. It’s in the direction of seeing them as great, pieces of my soul, chosen, worthy of my love, that I should abandon myself and exit into them, to the center of the group. I need to try to clothe the words of Rabash onto my heart. You can try a call chain where one friend calls the next and gives them the importance of the goal. Anything to shoot bullets of love at the heart of the friends. By that, I open their heart and mine.

I’ve got a question about a sentence in the Zohar. Not sure if anyone can answer. It’s in item 8 of the article “Who Created These.” It says: when ZON rise for MAN to YESHSUT.
Is it like saying: Shane goes to the store FOR milk? Or is it like saying: Shane goes to the store FOR Sarah?
In other words, is it saying that ZON rise to YESHSUT to get MAN, or is it saying that ZON rise, in place of MAN, to YESHSUT? Or am I way off, all together?
I hope that makes sense.

Hi Shane. It’s neither 🙂 ZON raise MAN – so it is their MAN (prayer/request) that rises. And this is also considered that they, ZON, rise. This is why it is said that “ZON rise for MAN to YESHUT”.

What is “Virtual Group Advanced”. It just popped in my page…

Hello Sauli, here’s a reply from Zohar: There was an apparent mistake with the tags on his account, it has been fixed now.
The Virtual Group Advanced class is something he will have access to after graduation from the Young Group.

Brains, in direct translation. Better translation: Lights.

Questing about “Shamati 12. Lishma (for Her sake)”
Why “Her sake” ? I thought bestowal is always masculine, something like “for His sake”. I am a bit confused about this.

For the sake of the Kli (vessel), which in its corrected form is called Shechina, in which the Creator can dwell.
