The first lesson I learned in kindergarten was to share. I’ve learned a lot of things since but that one lesson I learned at age 5 has stuck with me. I’ve tried to share as much as possible in my life.
One thing that used to upset me tremendously is when I give to someone and they don’t express gratitude. Sometimes they have even attacked me after I have been completely generous with them. In the past, this has made so bitter, I removed myself from society.
I am wondering about my original intention in all those gifts where I expected gratitude. The bitterness has lifted and been replaced with forgiveness. I have never intentfully thanked the Creator for the abundance in my life, and my life itself. I hope that’s something I can improve on through learning Kabbalah. I really am so very thankful.

Karim,
The act and then the understanding, this is a correct process. You can see, even map out your development in the story you told here.
So, imagine for example that our advancement is like a spiral up.
So each time, you do something, you think you are righteous, this is called that you are filled with the light of confidence.
Following that, the next degree opens for us. The next degree comes as empty of light. We feel disappointment in our progress, unable to justify the situation.
We search, we ask, a new prayer grows in our heart and it draws a new light. And in that light we see so clearly how we were the one that was deficient and how everything happened exactly as it should and we are filled with confidence again.
🙂
And the by these two legs, left and right we advance from degree to degree and each time the light corrects our perception and builds this kli, this vessel for the light to dwell until the end of correction.

I’m loosing my beliefs. I feel empty in my heart and most of time i think i am a bad luck person. Can kabalah help me to overcome this feeling?

Hello Shane…your comment about losing your beliefs reminded me of something I read a few days ago. I’m not sure what you believed before but I know that for new wheat to emerge the seed must first rot. Hope that’s not too cryptic.

Shane,
An empty heart is not so bad.
If it were full, you’d be like a cow happy to chew grass in the sun all day.
Now it’s no fun being depressed all the time, we don’t want that.
But to feel that regular life is empty is a good place to start, that means a person is not fulfilled just living an animal life.
You are certainly very lucky if you made it here. You found a place where we study from our teacher a true kabbalist from a lineage of true kabbalists who attained Godliness. We study only their books about their method.
Be patient. Take good notes.
Read the texts and watch the lessons again and again.
You will feel from week to week how you are advancing.

Since I was sixteen, when I came across the concept of Reincarnation and Karma from a book on Yoga, I have been searching for the key to unlocking the mysteries of our life, and making a direct contact to God, or a guide, my Higher Self, and I’ve studies just about every religion, philosophy and occult teaching I could find. Over and over, I’ve had to adjust my belief system, to agree with the current system. I thought I’d really found the answers when I found a magical order that seemed to open me psychically. Two beings came to me in my dreams, and I had lots of out of body experiences, but then negative things began happening, and I was forced to stop practicing the rituals, and my guides left me. So now I’m hoping to find out where I went wrong, and return to exploring what I thought was spiritual planes, but really, I want to know I am on the right path, and I’m willing to change my perceptions in order to make true progress. I see that is just wanting to explore these realms, but I know I may have to give up the things I really want to do, like astrology, tarot cards, though I found them very useful tools, even though I do not want to attract those negative beings again. Is this a natural hurdle to achieve spirituality? I just want to make contact with that inner guide or Spark of Divinity, I want to make sure I don’t just repeat the mistakes I’ve already made. This may not be the path I want, but I don’t want to give up, when I could receive even greater gifts that I could then use to help others on their path, rather than just fading away without knowing I accomplished anything worthwhile.

Greetings Dorothy,
I’m only a beginning student and not a representative of the great initiative here, but wanted to reply. I’ve been “spoken” to as well and I’ve lived similar experiences diving into different belief systems, etc, only to find that something felt to be missing still. We might consider ourselves blessed to not be content with something incomplete. If you’re like me you’ve felt some type of fear related to the new endeavor here because of all the other paths that didn’t lead to the goal. Perhaps you can decide like I have and forget the past and fully surrender to this new study. If you can do this, please fully commit yourself and not only do every lesson, but do extended reading and video watching of related content. Even re-read everything if it doesn’t fully set in. I truly believe it will be worth the time investment and we’ll be quite amazed.
Continue blessed dear

Dorothy,
We are dealing here only with attaining the Creator. It is a very practical method.
If you are looking to delve in all sorts of other rituals, practices and methods, this method is not going to work for you.
We are studying authentic books passed to us from kabbalist to disciple in an unbroken chain. Many of the other methods that you mentioned stole a spark from the wisdom of kabbalah and tried to exploit it to manipulate reality for egoistic purposes.
Our goal is to bring the light of the Creator into reality in order to raise reality to the degree of the Creator, good for all.
If this is what you want, you will find it.
If not, I think you will need to keep searching for the right place for you.

Thank you for that answer. Somehow that is about what I thought you’d say. However, my own Higher Self made it quite clear that I am not to practice those rituals any longer. Please understand, that I thought the whole purpose of that path was for helping the soul to ascend, and when I began having visions and out-of-body experiences, I accepted these as gifts from the Creator for my constant seeking for answers as to why I was here. But once the non-human entity began to appear to me, I thought it was a test of faith and courage, but after being manipulated to fall out of bed, injuring myself several times, I realized it was not safe to continue, until I found out just who or what that being was, and Wow! did that lead me down a rabbit hole, which led me to believe that humans are not alone on this planet, and they are not beneficient. I think that soon what I found out will be revealed to all, as many persons who claim to have served in a Secret Space Force have claimed that they saw many other species while serving on bases on the Moon, Mars, and in space. This may not sound like a spiritual experience, but I can assure you my primary goal, since I was 16 was find out the truth behind our religions and spiritual teachings, and with a goal to unite with the Creator, to know God. You can laugh at me or deny me entrance into your school, but I know I was exercising powers I once had in previous incarnations. I realized that the so-called journeys I had taken were not in the Higher Planes, but in the lower astral realm that surrounds our planet. We are in a war with these lower beings, call them the Archons, for they do not possess souls, and we must free our planet of these creatures, and there are many fighting this war as I speak. I can see how a person delving into magic can appear to only be doing so for their personal entertainment or possession of certain powers. Becoming aware that one is in a dream, and then testing it by flying is exhilarating, but it is not safe, unless a true guide comes and shows you the way. I just can’t believe that all my pain and suffering this life has been for nothing, for just enough was shown to me to realize just how real higher spiritual realms are. I have no fear of death because of these experiences, and as God wants to bestow these gifts of the Godhead upon those who have proven faithful, I can’t believe that true Kabbalists have not been granted these gifts also. Perhaps I will not see God until the day of my death, but I know I will be welcomed into His Presence.

It seems I have entered a difficult period in my life. My husband of 46 years contracted dementia around 4 years ago and needed to be placed in Memory Care about 6 months ago. Many of my family members (siblings) and my husbands siblings have deserted us. By taking care of my husband I let my friendships dwindle and pass. To make a long story short, do you think my involvement with learning Kabbalah now is Creators gift to me to learn to turn this isolation and grief I feel into an opportunity to live in peace by loving and accepting all people (and situations) and not seeing what others see in me but what I can see and give (love) to them regardless. If I learn this it definitely would be a gift.

Laurel,
I’m sorry to hear that you and your husband are going through such a difficult time.
I’m sure you can reflect on your life and see how it is times like this that bring out very big changes in us.
These things happen in our lives and they help us to come out of ourselves and ask the bigger questions, to discover who we are and what is happening here.
You have found a treasure here and you will find comfort and answers.
Simultaneously, it is important to maintain a normal life in this world, it is not good to be isolated from friends and family. Maybe there is something you can do regarding that as well.

Does it make sense to add additional two senses to typical five normal senses known from biology?
By additional two senses I mean feelings and internal thought dialog. In Hermetism they are connected to astral and mental body. If I understand this correctly feelings and internal thought dialog is not the person at the core. It’s only a vehicle and similar to typical senses in this regard.- February 7, 2023 at 8:29 am EST #311995Seth – KabU InstructorModerator
lukasz,
All of reality is built of ten sefirot. That’s it.
All of our senses are the same structure, the development of our thoughts are the same structure, our desires are the same structure.
Keter
Hochma
Bina
Zeir Anpin (contains: Hesed, Gevurah, Tifferet, Netzach, Hod, Yesod)
MalchutFrom this comes the structure of our senses, our organs, etc.
Regarding thoughts and desires, that’s a different subject.
We are at our essence a desire. Our thoughts arise in order to fulfill our desires.
