Hi! I just started in the graduate environment and wondered how everything works. I was looking through some of the Q/A’s and saw that there might be times to join the groups? For example, I saw that the Young Group is already in progress, but a new one starts in several weeks. Can I join the groups even if they are underway? I see there are groups on Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday, but want to make sure that joining any of those would be OK?

Hi Tom,

We’re glad you’re here. You can join all the live Graduate classes except for the Sunday Young Group with Lio because that class is sequential and the mini-groups are already formed. You can join that next round starting in the coming weeks.

What can we do about suffering/bad things happening in the world? We see people struggling to survive, homeless children with addictions, babies being brought to this world with illnesses…what is the Creator trying to show me and what can I do about this?

[Gianni – KabU Instructor]

Remember, we have a way we’d like our world to look that would be “good” according to our current vessels, while the Creator has a completely different goal! That I’ll change my vessel of perception. And whatever He’s doing is so that I’ll do it sooner rather than later.

How and when will we have access to the Zohar movie that Premiered in the KabU event yesterday?

It’s being discussed now what the best avenues of dissemination will be. I don’t have a date.

Greetings Instructors and friends.

Question from my Ten:

In the past we have done an exercise where we take a week and each day of that week, we pray for one friend in the Ten. For example, Sunday, we pray for Friend #1, Monday, prayers are for Friends #2 and so on.

Some friends would like to make this a standing routine in the Ten, while others don’t feel an attraction to this as a routine.

According to the wisdom, what is the best way to organize our prayers in the Ten? Would establishing this exercise as a routine be helpful in the Ten?

Please advise.

Thank you!

Hi Isoke,

If it’s an action that is not from Rav or explicitly recommended by Rabash (and there are practically no exercises set in stone about which we can say “Rabash says do such and such in corporeality” but rather we often do not understand at what level Rabash or Rav was speaking or writing) – so, if the ten is not in agreement, then it can’t become a permanent practice. Rather, connection Managers can determine an exercise for the day, and this could be one such exercise.

I did hear that tens should read our texts, and formulate a prayer from the center of the ten; and revisit the prayer, and renew it throughout the day. A prayer from the heart of the ten outwards is the best orientation. Only in special cases are we focussing on individuals. If you want more guidance, you can check the Rabash article, The Agenda of the Assembly.

”Leave a recorded audio/video message
that will help build between us a demand so that none of us will be able to differentiate himself from the others, and we will feel as one.”

This is from this week’s homework for the Young Group. Where/how can we share this recording?

[Isoke Jacobs]

Understood.

Thank you, Gianni.

Hi Peter,

Sorry, I believe that in the transfer between platforms that functionality was lost. We’ll have to fix it, and in the meantime, please do so in writing.

I wanted to ask when the next Young Group is starting? After the Congress I’m keen to jump in. I feel like I have been given a huge boost and my hesitation to join the group has vanished. The current Young Group is already 4 weeks in so too late this time?

[Peter]

Okay, thank you Gianni

[Tracey N]

I’ll wait for next time

Hi Tracey,

The new young group is a month in, and the next starts in about ten weeks.
