      Long-standing health circumstances will most likely prevent me from ever attending an in-person Congress.  Is it best to look at this as another opportunity to justify the Creator?

      I had joined another kabbalah organisation before. They also encouraged to join groups.
      But when I joined , those people are really just for social/ getting some attention / accompany. The teachers are worth respecting, but the group itself are really not very related to spirituality. People just want you to give some either attention/ respect /accompany them.

      So my question is, do we put boundaries when we join groups….. Are we support people in the 10 group for whatever they personally demand

        Unless the group is organized specifically according to the Kabbalist, Rabsh, who is the only Kabbalist to start laying out these principles, then any group is naturally going to take the shape of our egos, and won’t be spiritual. In such a group the only thing we can demand from each other is the importance of the spiritual goal.

      How may I volunteer to assist in any way possible? How can I best give back now?

        There will be opportunities in the graduate program. For now the most important is for students at this stage to invest in their own studies since all volunteer opportunities are predicated on that solid foundation being there.

      I have registered for the virtual KabU retreat and want to know: how and where might I apply for assistance in order to attend the inperson?

        Go to the retreat.kabuconnect.com site, and up on the top right corner there is a link to “Financial Aid”

      I am unsure of how to form this question but please take in context of a desire for change. In this week’s reading,

      “There is none else besides the Creator.” We have to decide this every moment of our lives, being certain that He is good that does good, meaning, we justify Him in all His actions.

      This is the very first condition with which the science of Kabbalah begins, with the article “There Is None Else Besides Him,” and all that is required of us on the path is to establish only this. ”

      I recognize the text goes on to state this will be done in a group of 10. I am very far from this beginning principle, I am not feeling the connection from the videos others speak of, I pray to have this awaken within me, I work on my intention, but deep inside there is a strong resistence. Do I need to be in a better state before moving on to group work? I fear, as I am now, I have nothing to give the other. Is this point in the heart really awakened in me or am I just filling an intellectual desire? Confusion is setting in!

        Hi Joseph,

        All the above is normal. One who comes to Kabbalah is not attracted to connection because he has to realize connection only in order to reach equivalence with the Creator. You see, connection in which there is no benefit in this world whatsoever cannot be attractive. And that is why upon this connection it is possible to place the intention with which one reaches equivalence with the Creator; while in the types of connection I would get into whether Kabbalah exists or not, it is impossible to place a correct intention since I would have done it anyway, with my regular egoistic intention. Now, the feeling in connection comes, but only after I put in the efforts in that direction.
