What most inspired me in the course?
I was most inspired by the Dr. Quantum Visits Flat Land clip that Gil shared with us. It really put into perspective to me that I was once very much like that little blue Pac-Man-shaped character, and I just want to know I’ll be okay in the very next moment, but I’m also so enamored by the possibility of there being more dimensions.
What have I learned about myself in the process?
I have learned that I will never perceive outside of my own “programming”/unique 5 senses, and that these perceptions are completely different for everyone.
What do I wish for my fellow students in their spiritual development?
When you get discouraged, try again anyway. Always come back to the text or lean on and nurture a positive connection/relationship in your life. I know when I received the reply from one of the Senior Instructors on these message boards, that those with mental illness should not study Kabbalah without essentially clearing it with their psychiatrist first, I felt extremely discouraged. But I am here, reflecting, and have decided that overall, it doesn’t truly matter what anyone else says about me studying Kabbalah as a Bipolar (medicated, thankfully) young and educated woman, because no one else can feel the creator in the exact same way that I can now, which I never even knew was possible until studying Kabbalah; and ultimately that’s all that matters to me. And that’s all that should matter to you.
I was raised a Methodist. As a young was raised a Methodist. As a young woman, I converted
to Judaism when I married my husband. I did not convert because I was marrying him. In fact, I had had no intention to convert at all. But in the course of preparing for marriage I fell in love with Judaism and chose to convert. I have not,in the past years, been active in a community,but I love the religion and the people. However,I have a felt a lack in the area of the spiritual .
I have felt that there was more..something that I’m not seeing, but is there. When I saw the course through KabU, it jumped out at me.I had heard of Kabbalah,of course. Have even, as a younger woman, done a little reading on the subject However, at that time, I thought the study of Kabbalah was not open to women. When I saw that it was, I enrolled. The entire subject and the teachings have been so inspiring to me While it has been a rigorous five weeks its been incredibly inspiring I would like to take the next course Thank you for this course!, I converted to Judaism when I married my husband.

It was inspiring to see many others on this same path, seeking truth.
2. I have learned to better recognize my intentions, and I have learned to recognize when I am acting on what I would call “autopilot” in which my conscious will is not actively involved in whatever I am doing. This was also achieved through martial arts.
3. My hope is that my fellow students continue to seek and draw close to the Creator and recognize truth for themselves.
