i understand the connection to eternity through changing the intention, but i don’t understand the thing where he explains that once a person corrects a desire it also corrects the other desires? it seems like he’s talking about something else that’s not like our world now? like if i correct my desire does that correct other people’s desire? (it’s at 21:00 in the video)
Hi Michael,
We learn that all of humanity is part of one single system, like cells within a single body. So naturally what one experiences influences EVERYONE else. And if I reach a correction, this same correction influences everyone. But I don’t actually correct the other person, rather I correct my part that is found within everyone.
It’s like a hologram where the big image is made up of identical smaller copies of that image. So if there is a flaw in one of the smaller images, that same flaw is found in every piece. And if you correct that flaw in the small piece, it’s reflected in the whole image. But each one will still need to correct their part of the general picture.

I feel we all have experienced those moments when you ask should I take the road less taken? I had experiences in which my soul tested spiritual journey and my higher self that inner voice said time to make a decision: to transform or continue on the path of pleasure and pain that ultimately is a cycle of life that goes in circles but never transcends to higher awareness…
Hi Xavid,
Yes, you can say that. Ultimately we’re all parts of a single system within which everyone will need to reach their spiritual correction. The only difference is that there are those that are awakened to this work earlier and those that are awakened to it later. This is because there is a certain order of corrections that need to take place. It’s like building a large jigsaw puzzle. First you start with all the corner pieces, and only then do you gradually work your way to the center. So those that received awakened points in the hearts are like those corner pieces of the puzzle that need to start the whole process. Later on, due to their good work, they pave the way for the rest of the world to join this process.

is the path of light or the correction will naturally reduce the physical desire like sex, money , power ? I am asking because the more  I awaken, the more I dont have desire of that  physical desire.
Hi Irianti,
Losing interest in our physical desires is a temporary state. It’s a present from the Creator to give us the opportunity to plant our point in the heart in a good spiritual environment. But after that, in order to actually develop spiritually, we will discover greater and more egoistic desires within ourselves. After all, what use do I have of the light, if I don’t have what to correct with it? So the more we advance, the more we will reveal bigger and more egoistic desires, and the higher the spiritual level we will attain by correcting those huge desires with the help of the light.

No questions. Feeling especially stupid like I’m not really getting any of this. I believe this is just fear based resistance.
Hi Ozie,
I wouldn’t stress it, it’s completely normal to not understand these things. This is why the Kabbalists tell us “it’s not the wise that learns”. Meaning we’re not learning this material simply to acquire knowledge, to store it in some box in our brains. After all, If knowledge was the path to spirituality, then a supercomputer loaded with all of the Kabbalistic texts would be the most spiritual being in the world. Obviously this is not the case.
So why do we spend so much time studying if not to gain knowledge? Because through the study, we draw the force of the light. This force is what makes all the internal changes, clarifications, corrections that need to be made. After we extract enough light and correct ourselves to a certain degree, then we won’t just intellectually philosophize about spirituality, but we will begin to feel it in practice. And only out of that feeling will we begin to truly understand it.
So it’s normal what you’re feeling. The important thing is to just keep going, keep placing yourself under the influence of the light and it will balance everything out.

Just a comment that this is really very simply and clearly explained and it is making great sense to me on an ordinary corporeal level and at the same time I am feeling the impact of an energy which I feel is very positive and is moving me forward experientially, beyond what I would expect form straight forward knowledge, so many thanks
