Reflect: Write a revelation from the lesson that sparked your curiosity or revealed to you a fresh viewpoint.

I thought from the beginning of the lesson that the solution to self-inflicted issues would be solved by not allowing ego to have access in my decision making but to stop it at the onset. I realize how that it is impossible to counteract it completely and for a good reason. The ego is needed to in order to transcend from this desire of ego to a desire of auteurism through correction.

Kabbalah shows me that ego isn’t eliminated; it’s balanced and transformed. With intention and awareness, I can become a force for connection, choose genuine freedom, and evolve into a giver who brings myself and the world into harmony.

The ego problem versus the need to fulfillment of the point in the heart growing with spirituality and the influence of the lishma.

So basically if I do something for my brothers and sisters then I feed my point in the heart,

If I do it for my own selfishness then I feed the toad (the ego).

basically illumination is really simple I guess

As Judi and Robert shared in different comments I was also astonished  tolearn that as we started to engage in the study of Kabbalah  our ego inflates when we would rather  wish to try to control it in order to bestow.. It seems counter intuitive  but in fact it makes sense as we learned since when our desire to receive grows there is more potential to bestow.  When I became conscious of that this week , I notice in my attitude  that for a week or two I was feeling more egotistic than usual. I suppose I became simply more aware of my egotistic attitude

To learn about the harm of the ego and how to try to receive with the intention to bestow is such a deep concept.
