Is it ok to use ‘ we are egoistic beings ‘ and continue being egoistic ?

[Seth – KabU Instructor]

Mo,
We are egoistic beings.
That is how the Creator made us.
Now from this place we can start to feel, what is opposite of egoistic?

Is individuality an illusion?

[Seth – KabU Instructor]

David,
If you ask the scientific community, reality itself is an illusion.  Even if you do a study on let’s say vision, you’ll learn that what we see is largely  created by the brain, rather than a direct representation of reality. But more than that, we are constructing reality outside of us based on our desire.  We will learn a lot more about this later.
In short the answer to your question is yes, however, we have to live day to day according to what we see.
Live according to what we see and simultaneously start building a new perception based the reality that the kabbalists attained and describe in their books.  And then while we make efforts to bridge the gap, what we are doing is actually building the new spiritual senses to perceive the single, unified reality and with those senses you will sense that everything is connected and you will feel all the threads connecting reality together, but your eyes will always see what eyes see and your hands will feel what hands feel.
Spiritual senses and physical senses are two different systems and they are designed this way on purpose that specifically through one system we can come to know the other.

“That is, he must not think that there is the force of the Sitra
Achra (Other Side), which does not allow a person to do good
deeds and follow God’s ways. Rather, all is done by the Creator.”

This makes me think of satan or the opponent.  I believe this means the opponent is a tool of the Creator himself to give us challenges to overcome and depend on the Creator for help in drawing near.    Am I off in this thinking?

[Seth – KabU Instructor]

David,

There are endless forces, even gravity which causes a person to fall and miss buying the winning lottery ticket.
So it doesn’t matter which force, satan or gravity or any other one.  The point of the excerpt is that behind it all there is one governing force.

I still haven’t understood how to use Kabbalah in my daily practice. What should I do with my physical desires? Should I restrict common desires like eating?

[Seth – KabU Instructor]

Renata,

Nope. Now only make spirituality so important that the other desires aren’t as important. You don’t need to fight your desire to play with dolls. Your desire developed and now as an adult other things are more important. Same scenario.

After watching this video, then we come to an understanding that Creator is the center for everything, as the light that sustain everything emanates from Him.

I have seen a change in my perception and then back again to a seeming standard state. but something is different in the end because I wouldn’t be upset now by not know something previously if it hadn’t changed my perception, which still feels like reverting back to a state of typical awareness or perception.
