Hey,

Another general question please: when kabbalists say that in our generation humanity will start ascending into spiritual world, a generation consists of how many years approximately? Do we have an idea?

[Seth – KabU Instructor]

Zied,

We are always referring about spiritual states. For example when the writing says, Who visits the iniquities of parents on children, even to the third and fourth generations, It is about the ascent of Malchut through Zeir Anpin to Bina, to Hochma, and then to Keter.

So humanity reached a particular “generation” meaning degree of development that it is ready to ascend.

Hi,

1. Is using kabbalistic prayer like ‘ana bkoach’ considered a mean to achieve the state of true prayer?

2. Isn’t praying to receive the light considered an egoistic desire?

[Seth – KabU Instructor]

Zied,

Any of the prayers composed by the sages are powerful tools.
1. A true prayer doesn’t refer to reading the correct words. A thief or a saint can read the same words. A true prayer is a condition of the heart, that the mind has clarified and heart now longs for something true.
2. Of course it is. It is impossible for the created being to do anything without self benefit. The only reason any creature moves is to increase fulfillment.  However from all Lishma we come to Lishma. This means that by accostoming ourselves to wanting to receive the light, which means to be similar to the Creator and not opposite to the Creator, by this we draw upon ourselves Upper influence which changes our nature slowly.

Hi, people here in my neighborhood, near my house are obsessed with the devil. they keep screaming ,yelling and blame me. what should I do?

[Seth – KabU Instructor]

Johan,
I don’t know what you should do.
You need to solve your normal living situation before you engage in your spiritual work otherwise you will get confused and advance in a difficult and slow way.

Hi, as pessoas aqui na minha vizinhança, perto de minha casa são obcecadas com o devil. Eles ficam gritando, berrando e botando culpa em mim. O que eu deveria fazer?

I don’t know how to express this in english

What?

[Johan]

If the creator is the doer of all of our actions, since there is none else beside him, where is my sense of freedom?

[Seth – KabU Instructor]

Johan,
Of course we all feel free.
Like a child playing in the yard.  He doesn’t know that Dad is watching everything, to keep him safe and all the while the child feels he is free.
So it is with us,  we feel that we chose what clothes to wear today, what to have for dinner, everything we feel that we did it from our own free will.
