well, what is inspired me throughout the four courses is the continuity of the lessons one building upon the other, always seems to be focused and on a clear path, which is what I needed in my life. I’ve been a Freemason for the last seven years which entails studying many different paths, which is interesting to  me. However, never staying on the same one for too long this is the direction I’ve stayed on consistently longer than I have all of the others. I do feel like I’ve learned some valuable things about myself one being that I need structured learning, and I have for most of my life been an atheist, because I felt so strongly about science and now seeing how they come together is extremely interesting. What I can wish for my fellow students is that we all stay on this path together and I think there’s room in our ego to feel a little satisfaction that we are doing a good thing here and really, if you think about it out of all the humans on earth what a minuscule fractionof us have ever pondered the thoughts and ideas that we’ve been studying on a regular basis, so I do believe that is a special thing and perhaps we are chosen to lead Others, maybe generations to come or I guess we could just all be bat shit crazy but I tell you what I’m gonna stick around and find out.
I returned to complete the course and viewed videos 5.4 and 5.5.
Thank you Julian for the clarity of your instructions. I found your words, “don’t think of your friends and don’t pray for yourself because the concern and success of your friends is your success” a beautiful comment.
This would be my wish for those in my environment.
I think what inspired me throughout this course, Julian, was your classes and advice, and my fellow students’ posts.
I also got a deeper understanding of why it is so important that we connect in Tens/Minyans. Even if it’s still possible for one student to study alone under one teacher – and it probably is – it is still by far preferable to join in Tens because of the multiplied Light that results from doing so. If, on top of that, we can become real friends, then it’s a win all around.
Julian,
Thank you for everything you have taught us these past 2.5 months. I hope we will meet now and then on Zoom, and, who knows, maybe also in real life, sometime.
Gianni,
Thank you for being here for us, week after week, answering all our questions.
Fellow Students,
Thank you all for walking this path alongside me. I can’t tell you how often I have felt like telling you how much your answers resonate with me, and how much your words inspire me. It is truly amazing how this keeps happening, again and again, week after week. I sincerely hope that you will continue walking the path, climbing the ladder, and never stopping.
I began this study once before, almost 3 years ago, but I lost my foothold and stopped about a month before where we are at now (forgive me if I don’t go into details now).
This time I’m here to stay. No fear of falling short, being disliked or misunderstood will deter me because things have changed in the world, we can no longer afford to allow flaws and differences between us to stop us or slow us down. The world needs us to climb the ladder and lead the way so that others may follow.
I can’t get theis engine to work. I’m sorry. Been at it for a couple of hours, but I have to go now. Be well, everybody! Much love to you all! 🙂
This course is about preparing us to change our nature, and it seems to me something which will be challenging, inevitably, since we will be facing our egos. It has been helpful on this last set of modules to begin to feel prepared, and with at least some strategies for working in the group.
The picture painted of what is possible is inspiring:- to move into experience of the spiritual world, & to find within the structure of the group, the place where we have free choice. I imagine this as a real test from G-D !  And above all,inspiring to have a tiny part in Tikun Olam.
For my fellows on the path, I say : Lets come & taste !
I have learned that there is a push and pull at play and that I need to continue to desire to connect, grow and learn in all aspects of my life in order to be more like the Creator. I’ve learned that realizing that the ego and it’s desires need to be turned down and to focus on developing that second habit of doing the things that will allow for that connection and growth. This has been a true pleasure to learn.
