I am in the Netherlands too. would love to find a group as well. maybe we can start one if more people happen to be in the area?
I am currently in Tiel, but will have to relocate soon. I agree, virtual group for the start is good. Gianni, I would like to do the graduate program but at the moment I have other financial priorities. So in this case, are we going to be left out, no option for a group? I have a yearly subscription with KabU I was hoping to be paired with a group by now.
I’m disconnected entirely from the financial side, but if possible I would consider my financial priorities, since the cost is pretty low I think. I know there’s some way to get around the payment – and you can write to Zohar about it – but that’s not my department. My department is telling everyone that the ego is built in such a way that if you don’t pay, you also won’t benefit spiritually. It wouldn’t be better if the program was free. My ego won’t let me advance unless it has to pay out of its coffer. If it has to pay, the ego itself demands payment back, and since there’s no corporeal gain, it demands spiritual gain.
I was wondering why we should only apply these principles in a Kabbalistic group and not in other groups we are involved in? More specifically, this lesson talked about how conflicts that arise within a Kabbalistic group are opportunities brought to us by the Creator to grow in some way. Can we not also see the events and interpersonal conflicts in our wider life outside the Kabbalistic group as lessons given to us by the Creator?
Hi Charlotte,
Sorry I missed this. Of course you can try to see all events as coming from the Creator and that this force is doing good with every act. Naturally this will feel like a lie, as the Creator did not make the world such that we can already feel that all that comes our way is coming to us from a single force, and out of love. In fact, He made it the opposite, that we would feel everything as if it comes from all kinds of different sources, and not from the Upper Force. Moreover, the world does not appear to be good, if we start really looking at it. That’s because it is supposed to appear as if it is coming from a singular force of goodness ONLY if we’re in Equivalence of Form with the Upper Force. This quality, we have to build in a group.
1) What is meant by “Shekinah is in the dust”? As in …is this the guiding, loving, creative force I sense and learn from as/ in Nature? As in…the Creature?
2) Is this another term meaning the Will to Receive for Myself Alone?
3) How is the Kli related to Shekinah?
Hello my question is about the terms partsuf, AHP, and GHP? I must have missed that lesson where they describe this part in more detail because I can’t seem to understand <3 Any information or reading material on the subject would be great!
Related to us, I can only say that the Point in the Heart, meaning that desire that leads a person towards Kabbalah, is a piece of the GE. GE refers to the purest desires within the vessel. If I unite with them, above the egoistic desires, called my AHP, then I can unite with the Upper Degree, which is above us, called Creator.
What do people DO in the group? What is the activity that allows us to see? What does the group do????????I get nervous that it is sounding a bit New Age ish all the sharing and loving …etc. Sorry but this image of 1970s encounter groups keep popping up in my mind.

Hi Jill,
It has nothing to do with new age, which was a little confusion humanity had a few years ago. The Kabbalistic group is a concept that is a few thousands of years old. Because I need to have a relationship with the Creator. He made it so that that would not be realistic unless I start working not with my imagination but with the reality He has set before me. And that I would scrutinize what entry point there, there might be, that I’m searching for Him through the parts of reality that are also searching for a relationship with Him; and that’s why I need to unite with others in a Kabbalistic group. Then He will reveal Himself to me, from behind the group.
Hey Jill,
I am not an instructor just a fellow classmate that has been looking at your question. I think Gianni answered it perfectly in the previous post as far as what we do in the group.
“Once it’s corporeality we’re talking about, the approach is to internally ascribe all things as arriving in my experience from a single Upper Force. And with that, I also need to act normally, according to what is considered normal in the eyes of people.”
We are meant to work in a group where both you and I are experimenting with ascribing all of our desires and thoughts to the creator, while also utilizing the screen. When a desire comes inside of us, we have to remind ourselves of our intention that “I do this not for me” and “There is none else besides him”.
The group is meant to provide an experimental testing ground where you can practice these intentions and study kabbalah more in depth. Since without the group and the actual attempts to practice with these concepts we will not be able to apply them outside in the world. Or at least its much more difficult.
Hope this helps! <3
