I am still digesting one of the comments regarding religion being a state of amnesia, removed from kabbalah. Personally, I have no experience with any kind of religious practices associated with the Abraham’s religions. Does it mean it is easier to study and participate, because there is no need to spend energy to decode the amnesia? Or is it other way around – religious practices, prayers, etc. encode our pliable synapses, mingling all the childhood sensations with the ancient code?
I never felt any need for religion – perfectly content in the deep knowledge that the Universe loves me and all is for the best, in this best of all possible worlds (Candid, Voltaire). Looking back, I know that I was surrounded by the “oral Torah” – and confidence that people around me also strive to practice the “golden rule”.

It never ceases to amaze me just how willing we are to look for the easier, softer way of things. As I studied through this first weeks material, I was surprised at just how difficult wisdom and it’s attainment could be. I used to think that if one pursued knowledge for knowledge’s sake then in time, perhaps in my senior years I would just possess wisdom, but this is not so. Ignorance is easy, gaining knowledge is easy, but wisdom, is a full contact sport that one must work diligently upon in order to acquire. My whole life has been about the search for a meaningful, personal, relationship with the G-d, blessed is his name. I knew very early in life that this world was false and there was much more beyond my reach. I feel deeply that I came into this world prepared to discover Torah, Kabbalah, Zohar, but it took 50 years of pain and suffering to find it and then I realise the journey into Kabbalah will be more difficult than I ever imagined. The world needs this wonderful wisdom, and time is short. I therefore say a prayer for all living beings, PLEASE grasp onto the stick and work towards a better future here in this world now, the rewards that await our success here is beyond all imagination and we are each worthy to cleave unto the G-d, hallowed be his name. Thank you Shalom

Learning that the texts are in the “coded” language of branches and that people thousands of years ago were able to follow this code to enlightenment. Wow!

I’m not sure how to put into words but last night while watching Kabbalah Revealed class, but there were two instructors and for some unknown reason I was drawn to one of the teacher. His name is Chris Jones and what really blew my mind was every time Chris would share or answer a question, I could instantly relate. And his energy really spoke to me. How do I go about getting a teacher? And furthermore, does Chris teacher? Is he still a student instructor?

Hey Shiloh, what can I say, the Creator arranges everything exactly how it should be. I’m of course still here and typically answering friend’s questions in other forums.
I’m here in Holland at the KabU retreat at the moment . Would love to have you join next time 😉

I was amazed by the idea that Kabbalah is a science and that the terms used in Kabbalah com from a place of attainment. I’m looking forward to learning more and hoping I can reach some level of attainment myself. Part of me doubts it all, since I haven’t experienced it myself, but another part of me feels this is true.
