I did not like the example of “a mother” looking up to the father and bestowing upon the children. Why assume the father is above the mother? This example might require some adaptation to our times and the sensitivities of our times.

Impossible to update with the times as the times will change in ways that are to us as yet unimaginable. This is not talking about our world at all, except that the words used are familiar to students because there is a root and branch relationship between the forces that exist in the Upper World and the objects we perceive in our reality. In that Upper, eternal reality that existed before we fell into our perception of this world, and will exist as-is after our world disappears, as in a dream one was having, the Partzuf Abba (father, in translation) exists structurally above the mother on the one hand, while on the other hand he has no function or purpose or value in the system without Ima (mother), the Partzuf below her, and through Aba, the Light passes to Ima, and Ima passes it to lower Parzufim (spiritual vessels). Therefore, the times can change but these structures never change but remain as the order and structure that each and every person will find in their inevitable ascent up the spiritual ladder to the root of their soul. The examples can’t change either as they are such that they can be grasped at the level of our world, but later one discovers that they were eternal truths.

Why is it very important to only practice this in a Kabbalistic group? Should I not attempt to “build love on top of conflict” in my every day life, with coworkers, family, etc?

Even though that’s logical, there’s a reason why many people have tried to do this, and yet the love they build is not the love that Kabbalah says that if I reach love, I reveal the spiritual worlds. It’s because everything in reality is lawful, and like with the order of operation in solving a math equation, with respect to solving the equation with the Upper Force and me, there’s an order of operations. If I try to go out of order, then I’ll have to start all over and go in the right order. And the first operation has to be in the spiritual group. I have to succeed with those who want to reach the Creator together with me, and then I’ll see what (if anything!) is left to do with the rest of the people.

I found it helpful to have insight into what has “gone wrong” with some relationships in my life. Knowing that all is in perfection, gives me a relief on how I could resolve these relationships. The work of the group seems very interesting and I look forward to that opportunity.

Great sessions so far.. I had a lot of questions then somehow most of them are answered. One question that I still need clarity… the thought came before the desire… right? Does this mean desire is ego?
- July 8, 2023 at 8:01 pm EDT #325483Gianni – KabU InstructorModerator
A thought is an upshot of the desire.

Kindly care to explain..

In us, the desire precedes the thought. I want, so my brain activates to identify the desire and realize it. In the Creator, the thought came first, to create the desire, the desire shatters, and in that shattering the desire is called egoistic since it has an intention to receive only for itself now.

Looking forward to the groups.

What kind of the giving is it that Julian is talking about in the group?
Is it money or effort on doing stuff for the benefit of the KABU or teaching for example…
How hard is it going to be that make some people disappointed?
- April 23, 2023 at 10:53 am EDT #318632Gianni – KabU InstructorModerator
It’s internal efforts. And that’s harder to do than those things you mentioned.

I replied the previous comment by mistake in order to continue my own comment. That’s a relief that there is actually something more to look for… Thank you so much… I hope that eventually I can pay back what I’m receiveing here and have the right quality for that✨
