In the materials, they mentioned that the Kabbalah does not correlate to any eastern teachings. In studying the Sephirot, they seem to correlate precisely to the chakra system, albeit with more nuance. Every tradition tends to say they are not correlative with any other, though with study, I see a great deal of synchronization between all of them. Why is it that this line in the sand in necessarily between profound wisdoms that seem to agree with one another?
Zachary,
We are experts in the wisdom of kabbalah as we received it from our teacher. In my 20s before I found kabbalah I learned meditation and yoga and studied some other methods, but in no way am I an expert in any of them.The kabbalists attained what they wrote, there is no hypothesis, or theories.
I imagine that if there is another method that is genuine . then it is also based on attainment.
We have no time to waste on theories.
So if it turns out that different people in different parts of the world penetrated the veil of the normal material existence and discovered some natural laws, then why is it any surprise that they find similar things.
However each method is very different, the wisdom of kabbalah is wholly different than the eastern methods in its approach to the work with the ego. You’ll understand that if you continue to study and absorb what you are learning.
I hope to see good things from you,

If I understand correctly, when one reaches unity with The Creator, we understand the purpose of life, the past and the future. At this point, can we see world history and the truth of how events occurred – in regard to the planet and to our own lives? Do we become aware of events that have been hidden from us during our life times?
Do we also become aware of other people/souls that we have known in this lifetime, or our lifetimes; and any animals/pets we may have c0nnected with?
What do we do in eternity?Hope my question is not too outrageous. Thanks, Sue
Sue,
Think about who your grandma was to you when you were 5 years old compared to when you were 20.
It’s not that she changed but your perception changed.
So when you reach a perception beyond time and space, you certainly will not related to any incarnation in the way that you think about them now.Hoe did Moses write about that Abraham said this and Abraham saw that? Â It is very common in the books of the Kabbalists that they converse with other Kabbalists across centuries. How?
When one reaches for example the spiritual degree called Abraham, he hears and sees what is on the degree called Abraham, and anyone who teaches that degree sees and feels what happens there.

Hello there Seth,
It is very nice to e-meet you.
Currently, there are no questions. However, there is one thing, that has been of great help as of late for hmmmm let’s say “my growth” which is the idea of the will to bestow. Ever since this concept was introduced to me, I have been applying it in such a way that in order for “me” to be able to bestow love, attention and care to all of those surrounding me, I am taking care of my self in a way that allows me to do so.
For instance, good sleep, balance in multiple aspects like nutrition, fitness and professional development. However, I used to be very judgmental towards my performance, which led to more and more activity or push of the limits one could say, which led to undesirable feelings (tension) towards myself and the ones surrounding me. Things are the opposite now, more or less, for the better. And the idea that one’s well-being is good for the greater good of those around is what has aided me in that sense.
All of these changes have now led to a sense of guilt and shame towards previous behaviour which has an effect on the progress of the current path or approach towards life/reality itself. So, I was wondering if you had a few suggestions or course materials on how to approach the current dilemma or crossroads I find myself in at the moment. Pretty confident that as the course advances, I will continue to discover new approaches and tools but given I have not so many questions at this stage, I thought I could share this.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
All the best,
AlexisAlexis,
Its still not clear what is the intention to bestow, it is a concept that will become more clear as you study more.
What’s becoming clear to you is that there are necessary desires of the body for health and preservation and that in and of itself is not spiritual, but is a foundation upon which spirituality will be built.
Regarding materials to study, I very much recommend reviewing all of the course material from class to class. Reread the material, watch all the clips, take notes. The fundamentals contained here are invaluable and everything that will come be built on this foundation.
Good luck!

Good Day!  Questions about Reshimot from the weekly reading in Kabbalah Revealed, pp. 115-116:
(1) If the Reshimot are unsatisfied or unrealized desires that were created during the descent “and already exist within us,” that arise in us to be corrected, could it be said that the Reshimot themselves are the “rungs” on the ladder by which we ascend back to our original connected state?
(2) Is any single desire, whether great or small, sacred or profane, considered to be a Reshimo? [As in, although considerably different, both the desire to eat and the desire to unite with the Creator are categorically Reshimo].
(3) If Reshimot are already within us and are part of the correction process to reunite with the Creator in our future, is every corrected-state, including our final correction, already present within us in some way?
I feel like I’m asking questions above my pay grade, but concept Reshimot especially blew my mind.
Thank you – Allen
Allen,
Yes, this is mind blowing content. From page 115, “We are not really learning anything new in this world or in the spiritual world; we are simply climbing back to the future.”
You can say that they are rungs, there are many ways to count or relate to these things depending on what we are working with, but this concept is fine.
There is nothing that is removed from this process, every thought, every desire is included all the way back to the your complete and whole state at the end of your personal correction and the final correction that includes everyone and all of reality.

Hello,
Is there a constant stream of reception that keeps us alive? As long as we’re alive we have desires for survival. So I would think so.
Thanks,
Curtis
