If there is none else beside Him and there is no other force except the Creator Himself, what can we consider with other force not from Him? That we commit a sin if we believe in other force as per kaballah teaching. Like in other discipline (Hinduism,Buddhism, Christianity,etc). Thank you
Gorz,
The Kabbalists are telling us that everything comes from one source and that source is bringing us to the good. And there is nothing that anyone can do against Him. However in our feelings we can feel that either something is towards the good or towards the evil. And this helps us to feel independent and to build a correct intention/direction towards the good.
All of these changes are for the benefit of the created beings to be able to develop towards realizing themselves as wholly good as He is good.Seth@KabU
Don,
We are not standing in place.
For example, we go to spiritual first grade and we perceive what we perceive on that level.
Then we grow up and realize that first grade is child’s play and what we believed there is not serious.
We have a new revelation, a new perception and a new work in spiritual second grade, and then we grow and realize that that too was child’s play, etc.

Hi ! If we only perceive the surface and there is a common reality hidden from our senses, is our reality made up of our beliefs?
A group of us do these lessons together and a question came up as we were reading the Shamati :
What is the difference between a Kli and a Soul?
To know that there is nothing beside him and to tell ourselves that our work resides only in intention. How can we keep ourselves in action to reveal the creator in the corporeal world on a daily basis without adopting an attitude of passivity ?
Guy,
This is an excellent question that each one asks himself, “If He is doing everything, then why don’t I just sit on the couch all day?”
The truth is that there are two things here. 1. He is doing everything. 2. He wants us to feel that without our efforts we won’t achieve anything.
It’s confusing, because in our world, we do efforts and expect to see results. In spirituality it is not so. In spirituality we do efforts not to get the results, but in order to feel that at the end of all of the efforts, without help from Above we cannot reach eternity.
The mind is not eternal and the Creator is eternal, so we can’t naturally understand Him with our mind, so this process accustom us to come close to Him correctly.
Read this response a few times, think about and write out those two conditions for yourself in your notebook and think about it.

Sorry, I tried to edit to add but couldn’t. Also:
Is the general state of the soul of Adam Harishon related to the soul of individual man? (apologies if my words are incorrect). So the greater the distance between Adam and the creator, the grater the perceived distance between an individual and the creator. As the collective soul of humanity is uplifted the suffering on the individual level will be less?
Victoria,
I don’t really understand your question, you are using words that we don’t understand yet together. The soul of Adam HaRishon is the collective, common soul. That is our soul, all of us, everyone. It was broken. Actually itself is not broken, but the connection between the pieces is broken and each one is covered in many layers of concealment and we all feel ourselves as individuals.
Advancing spiritually means that we are making more and more corrections to unite those pieces and if you make corrections in you, then that piece of you that exists in all others, like in a hologram, that piece is also corrected in them. And likewise as others correct their part, that part of them that is in you is also corrected and by this we are all helping each other, speeding up our development and moving the correction to internal, spiritual corrections instead of slow, painful corporeal corrections.
