Hello!
I am happy to be at this point, to want to be closer to the Creator, to desire the wisdom of Kabbalah toward understanding what the Creator understands, and to overcome egoism. However, I can’t help think about people who die who are at an earlier level of development (seeking power or knowledge) and have not reached the point in the heart and pursuit of the spiritual path upward toward the Creator. Is there an explanation as to what happens to them?
Thank you for your time!
Corey,
Of course everything is part of one system, like cells in a body.
We don’t mourn cells that die, but we can’t say the same about humans because we have all of these emotions.
So we won’t “justify” it just like that, what we will do is rise ourselves to a higher level of perception where we see and feel an eternal reality and there the transformation of form will be perceived by us in a completely different way.
Great question,Seth@KabU
Hi Corey
I’m new at this like you, but I see no one has answered your question yet. So I hope it’s okay to share my wild guess here (with the hope that an instructor would jump in to provide further correction as needed.):
My guess is that someone who has passed away would have — in the course of their passing — transitioned from “the real world” to the “hidden world” . At that point, all the good (higher) qualities that this person cultivated in life would become blended in with the Higher whole. But if this person proactively cultivated NO redeeming qualities on their own when in the real world, I think they would somehow still become reconnected to the root because everyone begins life gifted with that little point of Light in their heart (whether or not they cultivated that seed any further). And that little point is their ticket Home (And while we might be inclined to think they end up with a bit less real estate within that larger root compared to others who had cultivated more quality, I’m not sure it would matter up there. Maybe interconnectedness with all the other great qualities is the dominating force.)
I’m so emotional at this time.
But I need my materials. So far I’m doing my readings through pdf. Thank you.
By the way, In my previous
quiz. You have that religion is Kabbalah. You have to correct it because my score would’ve been higher.
Elma,
It is a very emotional time.

Asher,
If a person is religious, we leave them alone. Anyone is free to pray 5 times a day or 3 times a day, to cover their head with whatever they want.
We here are studying the wisdom of kabbalah in an unbroken chain that came to us through Baal HaSulam.
We are not studying corporeal “mitzvot” we are studying spiritual actions, the correction of the parts of the shattered vessel of Adam HaRishon, those actions are called mitzvot. Through engaging in the wisdom in such and such a way that we will slowly accostom ourselves to, we draw upon us lights, called Torah that correct the desires from in order to receive to in order to bestow, that is called performing a mitzvah. I recommend that you reread and watch the lesson material again and try to absorb what we are studying and not what else you are bringing from other sources.
You will advance in this wisdom more quickly and with less stumbling blocks.

It is good to know how the realities are structured. These five worlds. Only I think I need to focus on this reality and I can not develope more than my insight gives me the chance to see it.Like the worm in the radish. I need to know how my balance will be between egoism and altruism. Is my conclusion at the moment. I don’t think I can bestow if I’m not healthy physically and mentally. That is part of egoism isn’t it? What is really meant by egoism?
Bonnie,
A person goes to the doctor because of something on the skin. The doctor, who is an expert, who has seen 1000s of patients knows that what he is seeing is related to the liver. So when we understand the system, the things that appear in front of eyes take on new meaning.
As for us, and all of reality: inanimate, vegetative, animate and then the speaking degree, are all created as 100% a will to receive. 100% that’s it. That is what the Creator made. That is the movie screen that the 100% bestowing light will project upon.
The structure that we are studying is not about some worlds up in the sky somewhere, this exact structure is you. You contain everything but currently our vessels are egoistic vessels and can only receive a thin light that fell into the shells and we feel them as corporeal pleasures.
We will learn how to correct the vessels to hold the upper light and feel the endless abundance.
Like kids who have a toy oven with one or two knobs on it that don’t do anything, we start like that and then we learn more and more and the light effects us and we start to feel other “knobs”, more fine tuning until we are like an artist with a palate of 1000s of colors and knobs and switches and we learn how to calibrate ourselves so that the the upper light can dwell in our vessels and then everything will be healed.

it is said that when one follows a path based on someone else’s opinion it is called “faith beneath reason”. how is that different from faith above reason because in both instances one is following a path only based on someone else’s view or understanding?
Hi Ludumo,
Faith above reason means I have my reason. Not only that, to have my reason means I put a lot of time and effort to understand what is happening. I don’t disregard it. I spent 20 years gathering concrete and water and steel and I built a building and I furnished it with chairs and tables and carpet. I did everything, I invested all I had in this and then I discover that from all of this investment, on top of this building, there is somewhere else.Maybe a father goes to war and comes home and gets married and builds a building and then he has a son and everything he built, all of his effort and fighting and sleepless nights, now, he realizes that it’s all led to something else, there is someplace else, he didn’t know this before, but now, he sets everything aside and lays down on the floor with his baby and opens his heart to something else.
That is an example, I’m trying to give a feeling of what is happening.
Faith below reason means that I get an emotion, and I follow it, I didn’t invest and in something and then reach some new degree where I see that I must go above everything I am, everything I did and attain something wholly different and higher.

If kabbalah is a science and science depends on the reality created through the perception of the five senses and the ego making sense of that, how can this statement be true scientifically? “There is no reality outside a person’s perception.”
Nancy,
I have few teenagers and with their senses they perceive their reality as true.
No explanation of mine will convince them otherwise, so I aim them in the right direction and impart on them good habits so they will develop in a safe and comfortable way and then they will acquire my perspective on their own through experience and they will finally make their bed and do their dishes LOL.
The kabbalists are doing the same with us. There is only one reality and what we think we feel is a spec of sand on a spec of sand of what exists.
Take any of our sense, for example, take our sense of sight. The spectrum of light spans from ultraviolet rays to infrared rays and there is a tiny sliver that is the visual spectrum. This means that with better tools, we could perceive much more reality, we’d see other forces all around us that we don’t see now. The same goes for all of our senses.
We didn’t even speak yet of what we begin to feel when we start to perceive the spiritual reality that exists beyond the skin, that is built with a common vessel between people’s intentions. Here there opens up 5 more spiritual senses.
All of this is ahead of us.
