What I am trying to wrap my head around there’s nothing outside of me it is only a reflection in the mirror of my mind from the upper worlds my mind only gets in the way but I believe with my heart so I know this is true there’s something inside me that confirms the truth when it is spoken to me and I know in love that this is my creator that spark last sabbat my grandson of 5 years old moved in with me I am 59 years old and he is kind of a wild card but he acts very well with Grandpa my point is I really don’t know what I’m doing all I can do is be guided by love and give him what he needs and with saying that I am glad he is in the mirror in my head.

Hi William,

Yes, the world is a reflection of ourselves. Just keep in mind that our attitude of love is an internal matter. Externally we still exist on the level of this world and still need to carry out the normal actions of this world. For example, if someone is trying to hurt me, I still need to stop them, defend myself, and call the cops. If I lose my job, I still need to go out and actually search for a job. If I’m sick, I still need to go to a doctor, take some medicine, etc.

In other words, our internal attitude to what is happening should not cancel out any of the normal actions that we need to take in life. It’s important to maintain this balance in our internal and external work. We’ll learn more about these things throughout our studies.

I love Kabbalah so much. There aren’t words to describe how deeply the lessons touch.

I can relate to lacking conscious awareness at one time and looking back I can see how suffering pushed me to the path I am currently on now. Once I shifted to a state of conscious awareness I began to see the difference in the forces that were guiding my development prior compared to how the process began to take on a faster and smoother transformation as I now could work with the change cause I could now sense a higher plan .

i am very lost, if the creator controls evrything, why are we even here?

 

[Albert – KabU Instructor]

Hi Zeinab,

We are here because we don’t want to develop simply like robots, which were programmed to act a certain way and they act that way. Although we have a certain ingrained programming (the desire to receive), through the process of developing on the level of our world, we learn how to rise above that programming, and reach freedom from it. This is why we are here.

Furthermore, the sages tell us that “it is not for you to complete the work, and you are not free to idle away from it.” Meaning that although the Creator controls everything and does all the work, it’s still up to us to build a desire for Him to help us make this change. Without this type of work, we would be no different than robots.

We’ll learn about this principle in the more advanced lessons, in the meantime, check out this blog post from Rav Laitman: https://laitman.com/2010/07/its-not-for-you-to-complete-the-work-look-for-the-creator/
