      This week’s lesson has helped me mentally relax in trying to “force my mind” to understand what exactly is meant by a lot of the Kabbalistic language. I feel a new sense of “trust” that if I stick with this training, then there will come new moments within my conscious sphere where part of me will “recognize” these things that, right now, I am unclear about.

      What blew my mind in this study is the fact that in correcting myself. I also have an affect on my environment, I also inspire and correct it. Through that thought within my consciousness, I came to see that shalom means peace. which is an acronym for positive energy always corrects error.

      I was very curious to learn a little more about the symbolic language called “The Language of Roots and Branches”. Since I am coming from Christian Mysticism, I have had many symbolic dreams, visions etc.

      I always said that those messages come from the “spirit world”. At first, I wasn’t sure, if Kabbalists talk about a different “spiritual world” than me. They do not because many, many messages from the spirit world fit in perfectly with Kabbalah. However, I have learned that I constantly misinterpret those messages completely. I already knew that they are talking in a symbolic language and that this symbolic language is always about inner states and feelings, but only through the wisdom of Kabbalah was I able to properly understand many of their messages.

      In an attempt to make sense of the messages, I started creating a symbolic dictionary, so I can interpret the messages, relate them to inner feeling states and finally understand them. However, now I know that this approach is exactly the wrong way around. Kabbalists start with feeling states and by first attaining a concept deeply, they start to understand symbols correctly and are even able to write their own symbolic documents, eventually.

      I feel like my approach is an approach that easily leads to confusion, so I will try the kabbalistic approach.

      I learned that “Nations” stand for physical desires and “Israel” represents the desire to have a direct connection with or attainment of God. I also know that “angel” stands for “a force of nature”.

      I believe that “queen” stands for the female, receiving principle (the will to receive) and King stands for the male, giving principle (the will to bestow).

      With this knowledge, I want to share a song that has found me. As someone coming from Christian Mysticism and learning the symbolic meaning of Kabbalist words, the following song summarises all that I have learned or gone through up until the end of Week 3 ingeniously. As I said, I will stop trying to understand symbolic messages intellectually first, but use the kabbalistic approach of first attaining a concept and then understanding the symbols behind it instead. Still, I love that song.

      For me, it has been sung from the Creator for the point in the heart.

      The more I suffer from the lack of what I want, the readier I am to make greater and greater efforts in order to

      obtain it. Therefore, if the Creator makes me suffer from the lack of the spiritual, I will be compelled to make an

      effort to reach it. Very interesting!!

      This week has enabled me to identify, why  I was getting confused with words and there meaning, such as Torah, Nations, Mitzvah’s and Spirituality. By changing what I study and how I study, I have a clearer understanding of these terms from a Kabbalistic point of view.
