What most inspired me in the course? – We’re not stuck with the way things are. We can work with others to change things.
What have I learned about myself in the process? – I am connected to everything and everything to me.
What do I wish for my fellow students in their spiritual development? Not only the reaching of the upper levels but also the pure joy you will receive in achieving them. Along with the revelation to be experienced once the first level is reached!
The idea that through this work we are doing that which benefits everyone to the greatest extent possible has to be the most inspirational part of the course. It is also the most fleeting, like the faint reflection of a passing car on a store window. That ideal doesn’t stay in my thoughts as it probably should likely because I love myself so much! Time and again my selfishness, my contempt for others, and my fear of so much drives what I believed were completely noble pursuits or kind actions. My “goodness” isn’t very good.
I also cannot try to imagine the reality of true attainment. I want to sometimes, but it could be the mind is still overwhelmed by this experience already that it dare not try. I just know that I want it, and that drive keeps me going through the confusingly painful and wonderful experience of this spiritual journey of wanting it for myself to wanting it for you – even if my efforts are currently unsuccessful. Trust that one day those efforts will bear fruit though not by us. I hope that your journey is as painless as possible, that you learn wisely, and you allow those awe inspiring moments of bliss and shame to carry you all the way home!
It’s very inspiring to see that Kabbalah is such a comprehensive science which understands who we are, what the issue is that prevents our development as people, and how we go about healing not only ourselves but the world, and that these are not separate things. The discussion of prayer as desire and intention is enlightening and exciting. I wish for all of us to continue to increase our desire for the Light, to move out of our egos, and to begin the corrections which come through connection with the other. I pray that we open ourselves to the Light and become vessels of the flow of bestowal. We indeed live at an incredible time in the history of humanity and we’re blessed to have such an opportunity.
What inspired me the most is the true meaning of an effective prayer
It reinforced the concept that our concern must be for the Others, for the friends.
What I learned about myself is that the moment I stop bestowing, is the moment when I spiritually die.
To my fellow students I wish to have always the intention to constantly communicate with the Creator and asking Him the strenght to never give up on the Spiritual growth.
