Marie,
You can take a seed from an apple tree and travel all around the galaxy with it. You can come back to Earth and take it on vacation and bring it to work, but until it is planted in the fertile soil, with the right conditions it will not develop into an apple tree.
Similarly our egoistical nature needs to go through a transformational process similar to being planted in a good environment with the right conditions.
We will learn about this in upcoming classes.

I think I gather that when we are occupied with the will to receive we are more likely to that which satisfies a desire to continue to receive. How does one turn their attention to that which cannot be sensed? Do we become more discerning about what we receive as a way to express our desire to become more like the creator? Or maybe develop and become more aware of the desire already expressing itself? How does one begin correctly and on target?
Jimmy,
Excellent.
The answer to your question is as King Solomon wrote, “as light excelleth from darkness”.
How are we to see something that has no form. How can we touch something that is not made of matter?
But what do we have? What did the Creator create? He created the will to receive.
As much as we can reveal it operating us, to this same degree we can be in touch with Him and ask Him to add his besotwal agains what we revealed.
In all of the lower degrees in nature, this happens naturally. Water absorbs as much salt or sugar or dirt as it can and then the liquid becomes saturated and cannot absorb any more.
Or an animal in the wild gets hungry and eats until it is satiated.
But with humans, we absorb desires from each other, this is by design so that our vessel will expand, but until that vessel is corrected, that vessel wants to receive for itself and we want to devour ever thing and everyone for our own benefit.
Even the 10% ‘altruists’ among us who prefer to do good deeds over bad deeds, they do it because it would pain them not to, they do it because that is what their ego dictates, to protect them from shame or to give them a feeling of meaning, but 100% of everyone is operated by their will to receive.
So all of the lower degrees in nature balance the deficiency and the filling.
However on our degree of nature, the deficiency constantly expands. There are eastern methods and religions that teach a person to limit his desire and by that avoid suffering, but the wisdom of kabbalah aims to bring us to adhesion with the Creator, with His abundance and for that our vessel must grow, our will to receive must grow.
And it is upon us to enter a group that will all the time advertise to us the connection with the Creator so that we can draw upon us that Upper Light that will balance the negative force that reveals and grows in us.

What are the signs of transforming from a place of receiving to bestowing in my physical being? Is this something that I will notice in my thinking, or mental states first?
Dina,
Actually spirituality is on a degree above the body, but as you advance you will notice many things in your thinking. Slowly you will identify the matter that the Creator created, of which we are made, called the will to receive.
You will feel that the body is operating and you are looking at it, with all of its biological systems.
This is the will to receive that was created by the Creator.
This is the substance that was given to me and I can do with it what I choose.
We don’t identify with this substance,
We discover ourselves outside of it, independent of it and we sculpt it.
I who think, I who feel and according to what I think and feel I am close to Him.
As He relates to the substance of creation, that is how I relate to Him.
All of the work is above the will to receive, not in it.

I’ve been taught that the New Testament is a very advanced section of the Bible. Although Judaism teaches Torah only, which is an amazing teaching in and of itself, I sense within Lesson 2 that the New Testament also teaches us how to become more like our Creator. Taking all the teachings as a whole, appears to be the essence of a transformation from the qualities of the Will to Receive to greater and greater qualities of the Will to Bestow. Isn’t this the essence of how we transform our heart and mind? Hebrews 12
Bonnie,
Many places speak of these Godly degrees, there are many paths that lead to the place.
Here we are learning an ancient, authentic kabbalistic method that we received from our teacher in an unbroken chain back from teacher to student for all of these thousands of years since the wisdom was revealed to humanity.
At a certain point in a person’s life she must find a way to reach these sublime things that we read about.
Those people who must know, they find the wisdom of kabbalah which directs a person step by step from concealment to revelation as much as she develops her vessels to feel the source of reality.

Salut thank you for your teachings it moves me to my Bones knowing that we are made to received but the creator wanted us to actually overcome that and be perfect beans of bestow ..my question is how to gain self confidence to achieve a very altruiste me. Thanks again
Good day. Hope all is well. Well is all hope.
How do we know when we are receiving properly?
Looking forward to your response.
Best regards,
Kariim.
Karim,
Through work among the kabbalists, we discover our first nature, the one that we were created with and we turn and request of the Upper Force a new, second nature.
It is actually a very natural process, like digging a hole close to the sea and the water fills up the hole.
However we are unable to do this with our own power. The reason is that the Creator is whole and we need to resemble Him, so we connect together with others, we overcome all the distances and by building these connections is where we accurately ask.
