Hi Gianni
I remember hearing something like: everything else follows the nature’ law and are in harmony except for human being . Â but if we look at the world, for example the animal world, it doesn’t look that harmony, animals kill each others all the time. what’s the difference? if animal kills because they were made that way, they didn’t choose it, so were we!
another question is : after we are all corrected, I suppose no physical world any more? do spirit have emotions? Â are there still plus and minus, good and bad?
thanks
Helen
Hi Helen,
We project our broken state onto the inanimate, vegetative, and animal levels. That’s why we see them as savages.
The corporeal world stays until we correct all the vessels of reception, which isn’t already the case as soon as we become connected once. When the vessels are corrected, we have the car, then we can drive, and the real adventure begins. And compared to that life, we see that we were as if dead in our so-called lives here.
Why is it that the more I study the more I feel unworthy? I literally hate most of my parts and even feel scared anyone can look at me and see me for my true, horrid self. I thought I was an ok human, I know now we’re made of ego but “knowing” and “feeling” are quite a different experience. It hurts, even if I know I was created this way and can’t change it. And I feel so confused about how to perceive anything. It’s all my projection, I studied as a cognitive Neuroscientist and I understand everything that’s said, yet I don’t feel it. It makes sense, but almost as if it all made sense “out there”, somewhere that’s not IN me… so crazy confusing. I can’t wait for the group, and I’m terrified of the group. I suppose that’s normal too….?
No, you’re worthy. It’s that I consist of two parts. I thought I was just my ego. It turns out I have another part, the Point in the Heart, which is more me than the part I previously identified with. So, it’s not worthy yet, but the Point in the Heart will qualify it to eventually be incorporated in the goal of Creation as well. I’m just learning more about the qualities in me, clarifying what they are for, and in which connections they can reveal a new, Upper reality.
Hello to everyone, in the knowledge check questions section one of the choices was( I can communicate with the Creator directly in any situation in life and I don’t need anybody else. This  is startling to my deepest sense of myself . My question is how to cope with the emptiness . Thanks for any help.
But that wasn’t the correct answer, but rather a misconception one has, that He can communicate directly with the Creator, without the modem called the Kabbalistic group. This isn’t lonely at all, but a richer existence. One expands beyond the boundaries of his skin to feel true life, spiritual life!
I understand the importance of “love thy neighbor as thyself” and the quality of Chesed. I think my question revolves around also establishing the quality of Gevurah and healthy boundaries. For example if you are interacting with a person with NPD- real narcissistic personality disorder. These people act like parasites, so if I were to look at nature, parasites have the function of helping species establish stronger defense mechanisms over time. A person with NPD will always say that you are selfish and wrong no matter what, so in this case would it be true to say that you could listen to them as Hashem speaking, to find the places where you are also narcissistic or the form in which you are selfish but to also accept them as a force that is helping you to establish boundaries? Is agreement always necessary or can the reverse be true? Or maybe both are true like I just presented?
Hi Inbar,
I know there’s books and methods that talk this way, but the Sefirot do not clothe upon our psychological tendencies in the ways you’re describing. They’re sublime forces, after the spiritual Barrier. We will advance by being clear-eyed about what’s really before me: egoists. And for the most part it’s the simple selfish ego widespread in the animal kingdom plus, in addition, humans actually enjoy hurting each other. That’s our broken nature, nothing to do about it. And nothing to learn from it except this, to a greater and greater extent, until I realize unequivocally that the world is this way through and through, and thus there’s no one I can change but me. And if I change – through the study of Kabbalah – I’ll also see that the world has changed, precisely to the extent of my inner change.
Interesting. I look forward to understanding more, I think I’ve been conditioned to look for meaning in another’s egoistic tendencies, but the lesson is that we are all ego? And then I understand that I will begin to work on myself only through the group and then perceive the world differently as the light works on me. I just don’t understand how that will happen yet since I’m conditioned to reframe a perception through the intellect. So I think that whatever I thought I understood, I actually understand even less now, lol. 😂
I’m struggling with the diagram used in video 3.3, at about the 6 minute mark, designed to convey the dynamic between my GE and the group’s AHD as I strive to connect with the unmet needs of the group. Try as I might, it doesn’t help me understand this concept at all. Is there another diagram or explanation that I could access to help me get the point? Thanks.
That’s because for now we’re missing these vessels. When this sensor develops it will make sense. Kabbalists usually didn’t draw – these are some hints in the direction we need to work, which is in the direction of bestowal to others. The vessels develop by the Upper Light, after we put in sufficient effort.
