I can’t recall where I saw it, but it mentioned something about our lives being a movie that is playing out. As a child I always thought that that was exactly what was happening. The Creator already knows our life story and its ending because he directed the movie. We are just lost in the role and have forgotten that it is a movie we are watching.
I appreciate having received this idea in this week materials:
When I agree with the Creator about the things that are happening, I am correcting my desire by detaching from my ego and my expectations to fulfill my desires only for my own profit. A new possibility is open, as a new space to feel free.
Thank you!
Hi ,
I actually laughed out loud at the descriptions of us bargaining with our creator to achieve some egoistic desire….it was very funny. I identified myself very clearly in this infantile role. It seems so ridiculous when the light of truth reveals our crazy ego and its circuitous, futile manipulations!!I also related closely to how tricky our ego can be in convincing us that Kabbalah and pursuing the light is too hard ,crazy , is not a real path etc ….that is a frequent visitor for me!
The explanation concerning religion resonates with me. Spending time pleading with the Creator instead of embarking on a path of change can be all consuming. Learning the feeling prayer and the role of intentions really causes me to examine myself even in why I am here studying. This is truly life changing!
One of the problems I am having is that, after 5 weeks on Part 1 and 3 weeks into Part 2, I am noticing that the LANGUAGING, the phrases people are using to describe their thoughts, has become very ingrained with the way the concepts are encapsulated in the course.  Does this have an effect on the thinking which is being expressed?   For me, it makes it quite hard to actually understand what is being said.
