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).

Hello, 2 questions regarding the week #2 quiz: The answer to one question says we are supposed to change our desire from receiving to bestowing. Yet, I have learned here that we can never change our nature from being one of reception. We will always be the will to receive. What we are supposed to change is our “will to receive for oneself” into the “WTR in order to bestow”.
The 2nd question that confused me was about reality outside of one’s perception. the answer was there is no reality outside of one’s perception. Yet, we are taught here that through this work we are building vessels that will awaken senses within us so that we may perceive more of what is all around us. Can you please clarify this? Thank you
Lisa,
You are correct, the desire remains a desire.
What will change is our intention, as you said, a wtr in order to bestow. Nice one!2nd Question. I cannot clarify this, we will advance and it will become clear.
We are in a field of endless light. We don’t perceive what is. We perceive according to what we are.

I think maybe I have misunderstood what is meant by the word Vessel (Kli). I thought it referred to the soul, and that we needed to grow our single vessel in order to receive the Light of God. But now I just saw a video where Rabbi Michael says that children are born with five Vessels. He seems to be referring to the five senses. Is this what is meant by the word Vessel? That Vessels are our Senses, and that we must develop our Sixth Sense, which is a new Vessel?
Dale,
There is one kli which is all of creation.All of reality is one kli that stands opposite the Creator whose light dwells inside of that kli.
Later you will learn about how that light cascades down through the worlds and you will learn about all of these inner structures. What I see from your two questions here is that you have a lot of ideas that you are bringing from before. Come and listen as if you don’t already have all of these inner structures that you developed for so many years.
Try to feel the world as the wisdom of kabbalah is describing it in the study materials and later you will decide to take it or leave it, but you can’t come at the beginning of the study and try to relate what you are learning to all kinds of other understandings, it will take a very long time and you will get very confused.
