When one start studying kabbalah, one comes to realize that, one is a reflex of himself!!@@

Kabbalah is enriching the quality of my spiritual life so very much. I am going beyond some boundaries; but the ways makes so much sense. Faith over Reason: The Wisdom is drawing me. Thank you for teaching the teacher. I have been teaching faith and practice for many years. This is taking me deeper— where I have always known I would be going—requiring adjustment and correction.

What are the Hebrew root words ofcontentment, receive, and to bestow. I seem to know what to receive means but is there more to these words used in kabbalah and do they translate to english directly?
Thanks

Hi Robert,
Here are the words in Hebrew, the transliteration, the main translation of the word and some alternatives:
Reception / acceptance = kabbalah = קבלה
Bestowal / influence = hashpa-a = השפעה
Contentment / pleasure = nakhat ruakh = × ×—×ª רוח
If there are any important Hebrew words you should know, we’ll learn them together throughout the courses.

On the human level before the speaking level, the humans are dependent on each other for their life. Even though the can move freely and can mate anytime etc they are controlled by the money they get or have to work for money that society created and other people make war and destroy life or give a child to make a life etc but they still depend on each other on the existence of their life?

Hi Robert,
Yes, you can say that.
We’re all part of a single system, like cells within a single body. So of course we’re dependent on each other. The only difference between us and the other levels of nature is that the other levels naturally feel this connection, whereas for us, our ego hides this connection. As a result, we don’t take that connection into account, and each one becomes like a cancerous cell in our common body.
By studying Kabbalah, we can correct the ego and properly integrate into that body, until we come to feel spiritual life between us.

I am having a hard time understanding that all I see is in me. It seems like if I don’t see a person or my house it’s not there could you explain this more? Thank you,

Hi Joe,
The main takeaway is that the external world is a reflection of my own internal state. So if I see something bad in the world, it means I still have not finished correcting my own ego. It’s like I have these dirty glasses through which I see the whole world as dirty. The moment I clean my own glasses, I’ll look at the same world, but now it’s clean and perfect.

why does the Creator love a person so much

Hi Milos,
All the bad things we see in the world stem from our egoistic nature. The Creator on the other hand is devoid of any egoism, so only goodness can come from Him.
As for the Creator loving a person so much, is it really so? After all, the Kabbalists tell us “the Creator hates the bodies”. So what is love? Does the Creator love us? Why then do we see so much suffering in our lives?
All of these things need to be clarified in order to really answer that question.
