Reflect: Share something from the lesson that blew your mind, or even just gave you a new perspective.

Reflect: Share something from the lesson that blew your mind, or even just gave you a new perspective.

[Andrew Lawson]

The thought that I am actually praying all the time. That prayer is not the words in my thoughts but rather the feeling in my heart.

That feeling in the heart is responding to the external all the time. If I respond out of bitterness for what happens in the external, then this constitutes sin.

But if I can develop the sense to be mindful of how that might be, in any situation, then I might turn the feeling towards that of bestowal. To seek the way of the creator through equivalence of form, with faith above reason.

Simply, beautiful.

I love the idea of coming to the point where i am neither controlled by my lower nature nor by the Creator so that its up to me and my own intention (an individual uncoerced intention) to become like the Creator. To be in that place of complete free will and then make the choice for the path. Waw. That feels as the real achievement.

I’m amazed to discover that Kabbalah is not a religion, but a science of spiritual reality. The Creator is always good and unchanging, unaffected by our actions, and wants us to develop faith—not as blind belief, but as the quality of bestowal and alignment with the Creator. While physical blessings are part of life, the deeper goal is to become attuned to the Creator by developing a sixth sense—a spiritual faculty for perceiving the upper worlds. Kabbalah investigates this higher reality systematically: its discoveries are based on direct experience through the sixth sense, and its results are consistent and repeatable, just like any true science.

In this lesson, I understood in what way Kabbalah and religion differ by understanding what is prayer its purpose and the way it is used by religious people and Kabbalists respectively. I never reflect or thought about prayer this way! I found and felt that this explanation make sense. It was a revelation for me. At the same time I understand better how to pray and when to pray when our purpose is to attain equivalence of form with the Creator.

Slowly, the person’s sensation changes, and
the desire to receive personal satisfaction
wanes.
I can feel this change inside me. It’s a beautiful feeling full of peace and trust.

[Daniel Alvarez Grisales]

It is invaluable! How nice it is to read your words, My Friend! May our spiritual growth be constant, and let our egoistic vessels die!

[Steve]

That in a way prayer, can be a constant and consistent thought of how can I do and be there for others. My heart and mind and eyes looking for ways to bring light into another person’s world. The result of this being that I become the best version of myself.
