Can we walk on the path of light and yet suffer from physical illnesses? Or? (I was thinking of the path of pain?)
Hi Annililia,
Yes, it’s possible. This is because our health is not always the result of our own actions, rather it’s often a reflection of the society and environment that we live in. This follows what we learned that all of humanity is completely interconnected, like cells within a single body. So even if there are a few healthy cells out there, if the body as a whole is sick, those healthy cells as well would feel it.

I would like to take the opportunity to, Thank Tony and all the Friends at KabU for the classes that have been made available.
I have walked away from Religion, due to the conflicting information that Religion teachs. For years, I have been confused, due to the Conflicting information, which made it hard to develop my Kabbalah studies. Having now dealt with this issue, things are now making far more sense.
Hi Mark,
It’s not the intellectual learning itself. After all, we can upload all of the Kabbalistic books onto a computer, but the computer won’t change as a result of this. Rather the Kabbalistic study is a means by which we can extract the light. It’s ultimately this special force that is called the light that takes us out of the path of suffering onto the path of light.

Hi Derek,
Ein Sof means infinity (literally translated “without end”). It’s not the Creator Himself, rather it’s the Creator’s attitude to the created beings, to fill them with infinite pleasure. Or more accurately, to fulfill the desire to the max. Similar to how you can take a cup and fill it up to the max where it’s impossible to add any more liquid to the cup. Even if you add one more drop it will just spill over. That state is called Ein Sof.

What are ways or things we can do to attract the light? Will the light we attract help us to resolve the problems that seem to keep us in a state of lack and suffering? How do we attract the light and correct our inner intention from recieving to bestowing?
Hi Kelly,
1. We attract the light every time we aspire to a higher spiritual degree. That’s all it takes, an inner aspiration, a yearning for that higher degree. This is why the main time that we attract the light is during the study, when we learn about these higher degrees.
Aside from that, we also attract the light when we play out those higher spiritual degree. It’s just like when kids play pretend that they are doctors, firemen, adults, etc. By that they grow and develop. Same with us. When we act as if we’re on those higher spiritual degrees, this too attracts the light. The light then gradually develops and changes us until this game becomes reality. Keep in mind that we practice this only within this safe environment that we call the Kabbalistic group. With the rest of the world, we should act normal, just like everyone else.

2. Yes, in general, when we go on the path of light, we no longer need sufferings to push us forward. Check out this blog post from Rav Laitman for more details:Â http://laitman.com/2011/01/lets-go-with-the-light/
3. The light is ultimately what corrects our intention, not we ourselves. Our job is only to attract more and more of this light, especially through the Kabbalistic studies, and it does all the rest.
