Preparation Question: Our entire work in Kabbalah is only to attract the light that reforms. By this we receive everything we need for our advancement. Furthermore, I’m told that if I will help the others, I will advance myself even more towards spirituality. How does this work? What does it mean to help the others, those with the point in the heart, on the spiritual path?

      I think Rosie & Cristie have captured things beautifully! I also think one of the ways we advance spiritually while participating in the Group is to gradually distinguish when we are responding to situations in the group interaction from an egoistic or an altruistic motivation. This clarification helps us to continue this distinction in everyday interactions … and to consciously transition to responding altruistically more often. This expands the impact of the Group dynamic more broadly and helps my spiritual transformation to occur more quickly.

      By taking pleasure in helping others, and bestow, we are cop the attributes of the creator and attract His reforming light!

      It means we are together in the LAB and will see the Creator through my AHP connected to others’ GE and my GE to others’ AHP. My ego may refuse it, so I must pray to go above reason.

      I don’t know what it actually means. I’ve been perplexed thinking about it for the past few weeks. I’m so anxious to learn and move forward with this method and connect eith teachers and with my group of 10.

      From my understanding the 10 our like the sefirot, like they say there is strength in numbers. By working with others who have the same desire, that makes the desire stronger to attract the light. It is almost like the scene in Harry Potter when Dumbldore dies. First one person pulls out their wand and it has a small light (desire to banish the darkness), then another and another, and soon the whole sky is lighted and the darkness is overcome. The 10 also ensure that we stay on the correct path and do not stray unintentionally.

      We cannot advance spiritually on our own. We need to strive to connect to other points in the heart that were separated in the Upper Level and now exist here, at our level. The only way to achieve connection is to be in a group striving for the same spiritual connection. Within a kabbalah group we grow by actively resolving conflicts by rising above our own egos to resolve our conflicts. Each conflict resolved takes us all forward on our spiritual path. We can’t do that without interconnection. Anyway, that’s how I see it so far. . .
