Ask anything about week 1 lesson and materials and get an answer from a senior Kabbalah instructor.

Hi, my question is that if there are 6000 souls but our global population is in the billions. My thoughts on this are that one of these souls is human and that splits again. How does kabbalah explain this? Thank you.

[Gianni – KabU Instructor]

Hi Roger,

600,000 souls is an intensity, of the connection between all the broken parts. And it doesn’t matter how we divide it; we can make smaller or bigger divisions.

Hi, I was particularly struck by the statement that after 1995 the way in which people correct changed. I have learned from past lessons that our individual “discovery” of Kabbalah is not happenstance. As we learn more about Kabbalah, and begin putting the learning into practice, does this create a situation where increasing numbers of other people also “discover” Kabbalah? Best, Tom

[Roger Fry]

Hi Gianni, thanks that has cleared it up for me.

[Gianni – KabU Instructor]

Exactly right. There is an order of correction, and heavier souls depend on the correction of lighter ones.

Hello Gianni.

It is partzuf a process? Like when a cup is full it flows into the one under it.

[Gianni – KabU Instructor]

Not exactly. It’s not that one is simply full and thus bestows to others that which he has no more room for. Actually, that’s the way it is in our world, that I can’t receive more for myself, so I give to others and instead of filling one vessel, I fill the vessel of my honor that I receive in compensation for my bestowal – in short, double reception, disguised as bestowal. Here, there are other calculations in play.

Hello,

I just wanted to make sure I have the correct reading assignment in The Kabbalah Experience. The recommended reading is, The Study of Kabbalah – Introduction pp 77-80. However, those pages are actually in, The Wisdom of Kabbalah. Your clarifications is greatly appreciated.

Hi Miryam,

Sorry I missed this. It’s the right link. It’s a chapter in the recommended book.

[Miryam]

Thank you, Gianni. And thank you, as well, for the sessions on Sunday. They were awesome.

[Matanah]

I thoroughly enjoyed Lesson 1 and have a better understanding about the Structure of Creation, with the exception of one question.  It was stated that, ‘the Partzuf is built through the 4 phases of direct Light. ‘ Were the 4 phases created first and through that process became Partzuf? Is it one in the same? If not, in which phase did the Partzuf appear?

Thank you.

[Gianni – KabU Instructor]

Hi Matanah,

The 4 phases are the phases that the desire goes through as-is. The Partzuf is when the desire Restricts itself and divides itself into 3: a part it can receive in, in order to bestow, a part it can’t receive in, because in that part it cannot receive to bestow, and a part that is just used to decide if the rest of the desire can or cannot receive in order to bestow.

[Matanah]

Thank you, Gianni.

Hiya, I’m having trouble understanding how I can practically work with an intention for something that I can’t see or feel. I have knowledge about the qualities of the creator but it just seems odd to me that in practice I should not care primarily for fellow man but aim my goals toward the creator first… somehow this seems selfish, like the desire for knowing the creator is for my own gain? I’m quite confused…. I’ve just watched Julian’s lesson video 1.3

Maybe I’m asking too soon and my confusion will be resolved in the following videos but anyway some feedback would be appreciated, thank you

[Gianni – KabU Instructor]

There’s something to what you’re saying and you’re right, it will be resolved. But not in a few simple words can it be explained how right you are, that you only reach the Creator through the prism of our reality, and it is not that one can aim directly at the Creator. Because aiming at Him means aiming at equivalence with His attributes. And His main attribute is that He loves His Creation and wants to bring all its parts to the greatest good, which for now is something we can’t even imagine. So the wisdom of Kabbalah is the method of tying all the reality to one source and responding back, through that same reality, to the source of it all, the Creator.
