One thing that I struggle to reconcile with is the idea that we don’t have a soul yet. All my life I’ve been taught that all human have souls. Please help me understand the disparity of the (.) and the soul. Thank you.
Hi Pablo,
There are different levels to this thing called a soul. In the beginning, we all have an animalistic soul, meaning a certain force that enlivens our animalistic body, similar to any other animal. But the human level of the soul is not something we have by default, but rather something that we acquire by correcting our egoistic nature. In other words, each one of us has a human soul in potential which we call the point in the heart. If we correct that point, out of it, we can build the full level of the soul. If not, that same potential continues to reincarnate again and again until it gets corrected.

This is what I came to think today when I went to work, sometimes as today was in buss in traffic lights been watching inside energy as everything is energy, watched beyond that energy in traffic lights and it chanced green. That has happened more than once or twice works and just today came to think that if I would be in situations when something like that happens and it feels miracle to someone, then would be easier to say that I have friend working there you get access to traffic lights. It goes beyond normal understanding and people would scare something like that, and would maybe think it as threat and tried kill so that is just opened and wanted tell this story to you and now read it twice and imagine yourself in this story. To get this why how its possible if you believing to it could be and why? If you are visual gifted to see by 3rd eye or with your heard or in any way can make simulation inside your mine, it might helps. And now there is this similar confight that if we are those who create and cant just understand who we actually are.
Hi Niina,
I cannot answer that.
If I was taking a cooking class and a tennis class, I can’t ask the tennis class instructor why my cooking instructor told me what they did.
It’s the same here. If you’re receiving guidance from other sources, you should ask them why they are guiding you that way. If you have questions about what we’re learning here, I’d be happy to answer them.

The only requirement for studying Kabbalah is a sincere desire to discover the meaning of life. Kabbalah studies how our life and our world have been created, and how to achieve connection with our life’s source, the totality of reality.
Never wanted or felt need to get so much well except one thing… to get know god, to get back to that light what I remember. And I did, its actual tantric way of journey the thing and magick in air to make your life to be magical. Trust that inner voice and light to guide, sometimes that inner light been total bitch putting me through desert but if I would not do that I would never met the pyramids, maybe still in desert as metaphor or in deep sea maybe just question of seen same “place” or space in different dimension or frequency or realm even. We have this moment ot make it to set tone of soul to sing and its something what I dont get in human mind why some one want sing and play and dance and praise in light. but unless its place there tone made to manifest what we call as life, then its good to keep that blessed feeling high. From oneness everything is inside the all or one and if that is like track how seen things then how seen world is different than carrying separation with you.
Good morning. This teaching of Kabbalah, called ‘the Creator’ seems irreverent … I have heard and read that to study or to practice Kabbalah one does not need to believe God exists, however one does need to acknowledge the universe is the work of ‘the Creator’ who “does not signify a supernatural, distinct entity, but the next degree that a human being should reach when pursuing higher knowledge.” Who and what is ‘the creator’ ?
Hi Janice,
Kabbalah divides our research of the Creator into two parts:
The first is His essence (atzmuto in Hebrew). This is He Himself, His point of view, the Creator as an entity separate from the Created beings. We’re incapable of researching this part of the Creator because our research tools are not built in such a way that we can grasp such things. Perhaps after we finish the process of correction, we’ll discover additional research tools through which we’ll be able to research these things, but until then we limit ourselves and don’t talk about this part of the Creator because we cannot properly research it.
The other part of the Creator is called Bo-Re (Hebrew for Come (Bo) and See (Re)). This is the part of the Creator that we can research and reveal. How do we research this? Through the desire. When we take a part of our desire to receive and correct it in the direction of bestowal, in that corrected desire, we reveal a certain phenomenon, we call this phenomenon the Creator. This is why there are many names for the Creator (in Hebrew), since every time we correct a different part of the desire, we reveal a different aspect of this thing called the Creator.
So all of our understanding of this thing called the Creator (and any spiritual phenomena) is based on what we reveal within the corrected desire. But whatever exists outside of the corrected desire, whatever we don’t grasp, perceive or attain within the desire, whatever is beyond our tools of research, we don’t talk about. We need to keep these limits in mind in order to stay within the realm of science and not venture off into religion or philosophy.

Week 1 Lesson was very interesting, and plus the zoom link was a great to learn about some people who in the class. As beginners, I am in searching for wisdom and I believe that, I maybe in the right track. What do you of you think?
Hi Mitch,
When the point in the heart awakens, it pulls a person to the place where it can get realized. So when a person finds such a place, there is a certain inner resonance, a click where a person feels that he found the right place for himself.
So no one can tell you if this is the place for you or not, you need to feel it for yourself. This follows the rules that “there is no coercion in spirituality” and “one studies only where one’s heart desires”.
