What resonated within me the most was the “Point in The Heart”. Through all the cycles one experience in life creates within each one of us a desire to seek out truth, the true wisdom of purpose. One may achieve just the basic, then achieve goals and recognition, gleaning from resources offered, but yet one finds an emptiness within or feeling lost, knowing something greater to calling but have the lack of understanding to answer that deep call of purpose, a sense of belong to a greater force around you. In this lesson I have learned the importance to learning wisdom of Kabbalah. Learning about the Law of Equivalence of form that we are created to become equivalent with are creator, to walk in aligned with his attributes. How necessary it is overcome ego – self and walk in a higher-self to emulate or creator. To understand we are all interconnected and see each other in ourselves and allow this wisdom to teach us and change our perceptions so we can unify with our Creator and share with others that we may all be unified.
Peace and blessings.
From what I understand from this week’s lessons on perception, the goal is not to escape the sensory experience, but to refine how we perceive and relate within it.
The “box” does not disappear; rather, it becomes less governed by egoistic interpretation and more aligned with the quality of connection and bestowal.
Through this process, a deeper reality is not found somewhere else, but is revealed through a change in perception in how we engage with what we experience.
I’d like to clarify something further…. if our perception remains within this “box,” but becomes transformed through equivalence of form, at what point does perception shift from being interpretive to being an actual attainment of reality as it is?
Learning of how the ego is the program of our five senses, to the point where we do not know what we are perceiving beyond what is being projected to us. Our block from perceiving abstract Light.
This caused me to wonder at everything I am experiencing. All that there is, is the Creator. What am I actually experiencing? What exactly is the Creator? I have my religious views via my culture and upbringing, but, what is He beyond that? He is the will to bestow, we are the will to receiving. We think ourselves opposite to each other (humanity) and we are not. Only the ego perceives it in this light. Beyond the ego, there is abstract Light. Endless possibilities. This drew me to “who am I?,” “Where am I?,” and “where am I going?” Rather than just reading about it as I did a week or two ago, I have these questions arising within my heart now.
I’m swirling from the terminologies but I am connecting with the material insomuch as I am feeling it. Last night I had a dream I was in an everyday world similar to my own until I came in contact with other people. First of all there was no barrier when approaching someone because the coherence was innate. Once contact was made physically and I note it was not sexual in any way, bliss, love, and sensations were so pleasurable that I hesitated with a distinct thought of death. Should I die and be separated from the resonate bliss I could not bear it. I reassured myself that even the thought of that was not enough to prevent me from experiencing the bliss and I surrendered to it once more. Why does this dream standout for me? Because I have never experienced anything like it before. I cannot help but believe that study of Kabbalah is responsible for this. Dreaming has always been the way I receive or process insight in my life. While I cannot recreate the dream experience in my waking life I can incorporate and integrate what I have dreamed as real and this is how I grow and evolve. I am grateful to be here and feel renewed with hope through the study of Kabbalah as it is providing me with a resonance of truth I can experience even if I am struggling with the terminology.
What a beautiful dream, Ellema! It made me wonder if you’d read “Kabbalah and the Power of Dreaming” by Catherine Shainberg (a student of the Israeli Kabbalist, Colette Béatrice Aboulker-Muscat). Thanks to my *ADHD-ness*, I’ve only managed to skim books by Shainberg and Aboulker-Muscat, but some of their exercises have brought my dreams alive.
