      From the “Attaining the world beyond” page 36 “It is for this form of human condition that this world and

      the Higher Worlds were created.”

      Which “human condition” is this referring to? Is it the complete sinner asking the Creator to break him free from egoism and hence becoming complete righteous?

       

      Thank you

        Hi Hooman,

        Yes, you can say that. Essentially the worlds are levels of concealment. World (Olam in Hebrew) comes from the word concealment (ha-alama). So the 5 worlds are 5 levels of concealment between us, the desire to receive, and the Creator the general force of love and bestowal. Why was it necessary to create the worlds? Or in other words, why was it necessary to conceal the Creator? In order to give us room to develop freely. If the Creator was revealed, there would be no room for righteous or sinners, we would all simply act like robots in accordance with His will.

      So far, week 1 has been full of great experiences and often very emotional.

      On the “Attaining the world beyond” page 12 paragraph 4 “… or recognize that our feelings are lacking regarding a particular issue. If the latter is the case, it is a crucial prerequisite for us to move forward spiritually.”

      My interpretation is, if there is an issue in our life that we cannot describe how exactly we feel about it, the lack of feeling we have for that issue means we should move forward spiritually and understand those feelings.

      Am I interpreting this sentence correctly?

       

      Thank you

        Hi Hooman, good question!

        This section is speaking about the approach to the study. If there is something that we’re reading in the Kabbalistic books that we don’t yet feel or understand, it’s because we’re not yet spiritually developed enough to understand it. It’s like a 3 year old looking at a gynecology book. The 3 year old is incapable of understanding anything in the book. He first needs to develop further, to grow up a bit, and then he’ll be able to understand the book.

        Same with us, if we don’t get something, it’s an indicator that we need to develop further spiritually. And this realization of not being able to grasp something is itself the trigger for our spiritual development. It builds in us a great yearning and desire to grasp these things, which ultimately is what develops us spiritually. In other words, we don’t advance spiritually by our intellectual study, but by the desire and yearning to feel what we’re learning about.

        As for applying these things in your everyday life, I don’t recommend doing that just yet. Right now we’re still learning the fundamentals, we’ll learn how to apply these things in the more advanced semesters.
