My problem is my intention and my baseline “Will to receive”. As I go through lessons on KabU, I find myself subconsciously thinking ” how can I use this knowledge to benefit myself in this physical world?”.
My biggest concern being that my “Will to receive” will prohibit me from ever getting close to the “Will to bestow” and eventually I get burned out and frustrated because of a lack of “advancement” in attaining Kabbalah.
Is there anything I can do with regards to my intention or will continuing my studies help me gradually get out of the “will to receive” and closer to the “will to bestow”?
Thank you
Hooman,
You are asking the perfect question and the discernments and clarifications that you are going through in your mind are very accurate.
Imagine that you are in an airplane and you are flying at 1000km/hour or 700 miles/hour. You look outside the window and there are no trees, no cars, nothing to determine your speed. You cannot tell if you are going slow, fast, there is nothing to measure against.
Now imagine you are driving in a car through town, you pass the school, the coffeeshop, you see these things pass by slowly, then you go to the highway and you go very fast and the trees are passing quickly, the cars are passing quickly, the ground below is passing quickly.
Now you can feel your speed.
Our will to receive always accompanies us to the end of our corrections.
It is from this (-) force that we can sense how to draw a corresponding (+) force.
We will learn a lot more about how to work with it.
You are moving in the correct direction!

I hope that this makes sense as I am playing it over in my head…
Okay, we have to create the creature and fulfill it to be like the creator that created us. in a religious form Am I right?
Now if this is true and I don’t believe in religion but knowing that Man made God, and told other men to worship God the “Creator” isn’t God a creature that man just made up to make him a creator because they fulfilled it with man-made knowledge that everyone thinks they understand but don’t. When the only creature is yourself and the things that you learn are the mistakes that you make. So learning is the knowledge that is the creator of your enter self. right?
sorry if this confuses anyone. But in the USA people base everything on religious beliefs that is why I stated it this way.
Tricia,
We are not talking about religion at all.
We are only talking about what we can attain. Religion does not deal with attaining Godliness. Religion deals with all kinds of actions with the hands and feet.The kabbalists discovered some special light that shines for them and in that light they can see who they are, what they are made of and what to do with it.
Those kabbalists write in their books that we are a will to receive pleasure. They say that all of reality is a will to receive pleasure. That desire to receive pleasure developed over billions of years in four phases:
1. Inanimate
2. Vegatative
3. Animate
4. Speaking
We are in the 4th degree. And we can see that all of reality operates to receive for itself, even when someone or something gives it is only to receive something in return, either now or later.
From discovering our true nature as being a big receiver, we can start to feel what we are missing which is the quality of bestowal, which is opposite from reception. And then sparks of love begin to shine and we slowly slowly discover the Creator who emanates this love.

Hi, firstly I’d like to say that I love the idea that our 5 senses alter how we perceive reality it reminds me of the French philosopher Rene Descartes and his Cartesian Theory I think it was called which I read before I found Kabbalah (or Kabbalah found me!) and was looking for meaning to my life in philosophy! What I would like to ask is in order to attain equivalence of form with the Creator we have to attain 125 degrees or steps of the ladder, is this when we can feel or use our 5 senses properly and get an additional 6th sense or does this happen sooner?
Thanks
Kindest regards
Jamie DickinsonJamie,
All of the 125 degrees are already spiritual degrees.
It means that we have gone through an inner transformation from 100% with an intention to receive to 99% intention to receive and 1% with an intention to do everything for the sake of everyone, to bestow, which is the quality of the Creator.
One who goes through this transformation develops additional senses that are not felt by common people.
This is above the 5 senses.

Abba,
This world is called an imaginary world. Like making actions in a mirror that does not affect matter, making actions in this world does not effect the Spiritual Worlds at all. In order to feel and participate in what happens in the worlds above us, the Upper Worlds, the Spiritual Worlds, then we need to rise in our perception above This World.
That is what we learn in the wisdom of kabbalah.

When we talk about the five vessels we are born with, does it mean that as we studi and learn we will become aware of all the vessels that will show us who we truly are….(my questionmark do not work on the computer)
Tove,
We learned and will learn a lot more about the structure of reality, built from the root phase (0) and phases 1, 2, 3, 4.
Our 5 corporeal senses of course extend from this spiritual blueprint.
When the lights of the wisdom of kabbalah shine on us, we can see more and more the nature of who we are, our nature of a will to receive that enjoys the world through reception through our 5 senses. Later we will acquire new spiritual senses and feel the vast spiritual world that we are in but do not feel now because of the quality of our current senses (which are all aimed inward).
