My take away and new perspectives are: Tzimzum (the conscious restriction) and Masach (the miraculous gift from the Light that enables)! Learnt they are really key in my spiritual work within the group to ascend the spiritual ladder.

Another take away; I am not in the group for myself benefit, but in it to bestow to the group.. and the group in turn is my spiritual womb to nurture and bestow to me. In other words, “i am for the group, and the group is for me”!

A while ago I got a ‘revelation’ that all the important parts of my life were not done by what I perceived as ME (ego me). And I knew I was led here to Kabbalah. It’s nice to get a confirmation of my thoughts by an Kabbalah instructor. It adds so much weight to them. Thank you 😇.

To learn the right way to give and receive I need the right environment, the fight group and people to do so.

I am very introverted and this class has showed me i may need to open myself more to others to open my self more with the creator.

<p style=”text-align: left;”>Dentro de los muchos conceptos dados en el curso, destaca la idea del triángulo de fuerzas a tener siempre presente: El creador , el medio ambiente espiritual ( el grupo) y “yo”, actuando con la intención adecuada. Este concepto nos lleva a recordar  la visión siempre constante de la unidad de ” there is none else besides Him” que impregna toda la Kabbalah.</p>

This week felt more practical to me than any week of all the courses I’ve done so far. I’ve had a growing worry that engaging in KabU would be primarily intellectual, and I would be left on my own to figure out how to develop felt experience of the wisdom. I look forward to joining the graduate environment for more connection and developing felt knowledge with fellow students, but am thankful for the practical suggestions that came from this in the meantime.

The triangle of forces in “Everyone Has a Story” gave me a lens I could use to troubleshoot situations where I had the feeling I was being driven by egoistic desires in ways I couldn’t see, and felt quite disorganized in my response. Now if I feel overwhelmed by my ego, I simply connect more with spiritual environments, or do activities that help me connect to the presence of the Creator, to augment the balancing force within myself.

The description of the process in “What is my Next Step” felt very actionable as well. Identify the egoistic desires, develop a screen to quarantine them, because the screen is necessary like an iris to begin to actually sense the spiritual world. And that developing a screen is something you must put effort towards, but that ultimately is not your own doing, and is received from the outside. The metaphor of developing to tools to contain, build, and balance the spiritual forces within yourself was very clear to me.

I very much look forward to discovering what new experiences come from trying out these perspectives this week 🙂
