My mind or rather my heart is blown by the fact that it is all happening in the connection to each other,…and checking out this part of the course just after the retreat, I am still under that totally blasting experience of how this can actually happen and work…in spite of being far apart in terms of corporeal thinking….how much can happen through and in the connection in a group.

Imaginal cells / spiritual genes!  We are learning that we are far more able/enabled to do advanced things than we may have thought.  The synergy of accomplishment within a Ten may be even more breathtaking.  The open doors this presupposes are mind-boggling.  🙂

I always thought that when people said “thoughts have power,” it was just something mystical, but I’ve learned that we really do create our reality, and I really want to learn more about how I can use my thoughts to make the world a better place for everyone.

Me impresionó enterarme de que, al conectarme con el estudio de la sabiduría de la Kabbalah, recibo apoyo de la Luz para continuar avanzando en el camino hacia la adhesión al Creador.

The one about the intention. It isn’t possible to have the intention without the connection. This puts everything in a new perspective. Through connecting to others is how the vessel and the similarity are formed.

Beyond Altruism, Mimicking the Creator

Intriguing questions about the nature of altruism surfaced today. It’s clear that egoistic desires can be limiting, but even seemingly selfless acts can have a hidden yearning for recognition or a rush of good feelings.

However, the idea I explored today goes beyond that. There’s a possibility of a higher form of altruism, one that isn’t driven by personal pleasure, but by creating an equivalent thinking like the creator.

Mimicking the Creator (Concept): Here’s where the analogy of a creator comes in. Imagine a source of unconditional love and care. We can emulate such behavior by fulfilling our roles and responsibilities, even those not of our own choosing.

My experience with my family exemplifies this. Although I sided with my brothers in their disagreements with our parents, a sense of responsibility led me to support my parents anyway. The focus wasn’t on personal satisfaction from giving, but on fulfilling a perceived duty. A Duty that’s natural, as I have not chosen my parents but they are assigned to me. This aligns with the concept of mimicking the creator – acting with care and love, not because of personal choice, but because it’s the inherent responsibility in the grand scheme of things.

The Essence of True Altruism: This leads to an interesting twist. The pleasure, in this case, wouldn’t come from the act of altruism itself. Instead, the satisfaction would arise from achieving an equivalence of form with the creator’s. In other words, the joy stems from aligning our thinking and actions with the creator’s, not from the act of giving or helping.
