We’re in an ocean of suffering that we no longer perceive we’re in. We can get used to anything. We’re used to every moment containing varying degrees of emptiness and pain, and to the extent it does not increase, we do not feel that we’re “wet”, though we’re always in this ocean of suffering. That’s why there is no reality lower than ours, and we have only to rise, from a world of darkness to a world of Light.
Do we ever get to the point where we need to change other parts of the ego other than the part that is exploitative towards others?
I am thinking that Kabbalah is the study of receiving in faith that all our needs are met with out fail from the Creator, so in turn we give what we receive in faith, and when we do we become one with him and become his corporeal hand. Therefore the beginning becomes the end and the end becomes the beginning.
Hi, I’m thankful for all the classes and courses uptil now ,it really helps me rethink a lot of situations in my life.
Now when we start talking about spiritual group, I understand the theory of how it bring us good. But I can’t stop my mind asking how is this differs from a cult, can anyone help me out with this
The problem here is that we haven’t been in a cult and so we don’t know exactly how it works. We think it’s sort of for weak and gullible people, but we see that a wide variety of people got mixed up in them. We don’t fully grasp why. But there are mechanisms in every person that draw one to bow down to a guru. A person thinks he doesn’t want that, but in a part of him, he secretly seeks just that. And if you were such a person and not just asking philosophically you’d soon discover that the group and method here is starkly barren of the defining features of a cult, and then you wouldn’t want to be here. Here, you’ll have no leader to bow to except for the Upper Force, and it’s concealed. Without a revealed Upper One, the lower ones, the group, have no strength to stay together. Therefore you’ll have only the group and only the Upper Force that you yourself build, through free will every step of the way. Get to know it and we’ll see how against every essential feature it’s the opposite of a cult.
If I’m going on my own toward correction, it’s pleasant. Like if you get a massage, because of the pain, you identify that you were in fact already in pain. You’d only become so accustomed to the subtle misery of your state that you stopped noticing the pain. The pain inflicted by the masseuse brings this realization at the same time as it brings the remedy; Thus, you delight in the hurts-so-good sensation. This loose analogy can extend to the inner correction. I’m actually suffering tremendously, Kabbalah brings the blow at the same time as the remedy, thus it’s pleasant. That’s if I’m going willfully to correct myself. Otherwise, I’m suffering all the time because the correction process is taking place in me slowly, subconsciously, and against my will.
Would preaching be considered an egoistic desire (since everyone is supposed to be drawn to Kabbalah at his/her own time)?
Hi Soraziz,
Yes, don’t tell anyone about the wisdom of Kabbalah, and instead, focus all that on your own correction. By this, you’ll correct everything else. Everyone can find Kabbalah themselves with a simple internet search if they want. They don’t need it from you.
