Hi Melanie,
Certainly! But that’s the entire wisdom of Kabbalah, and to have the sixth sense is to already be born into the spiritual world where one can already see for oneself, like one who is born into this world sees the sun, tastes the food, etc. Sure, there’s a study from others once there, but that’s already a different kind of study. In short, how to develop this sense, we will learn together.
This is more of a comment than a question. From what I have learnt so far with week 1, to this point now of week 2 and all of the pre-course videos I watched, I have this strong sensation/feeling that is drawing me to want to volunteer/donate/perform acts of altruism more regularly with no desire to receive anything in return. I know that when I do perform these acts I feel really good inside my heart and mind so I do perceive a benefit from my act of bestowal. So I guess there is a question, is performing acts as mentioned above considered an altruistic act of bestowal like the creator? or because there is a perceived benefit, a powerful one, it is not true altruism.
Should respect have been a part of the 5 sets of desires? Could respect fall under the definition bestow?
Kabrena,
Food, sex, family, money, honor, knowledge, power…you can add “respect” with honor.
These are all desires that are given to us by nature. The first ones in the list belong to all animals, the later ones in the list belong to the higher animals, like us who are on our way to spirituality.
We need to use these desires to propel us forward.
For example in an uncorrected society we honor whoever has the most money or power, we envy them and want to be like them.
In a corrected society we honor those who are advancing spiritually and have attained spiritual degrees and we want to be like them and this advances us.
