      These concepts are both new and familiar to me. I’ve read about them before however it’s refreshing to be reminded that everything is already perfect, it’s all about how we adapt. Traditional religious prayer is bargaining with God and also that it is okay to receive so long as we realize our intention behind receiving and with that intention, give back. I love the analogy of the host preparing a dinner for the guest and the guest giving back by enjoying the feast. It helped put the concept of receiving and bestowing into comprehensible perspective.

      After I walked away from the religion of my childhood because of trauma, the fragment of kli in my heart sat like a splinter in a festering wound, symbolizing disconnection not only from the larger kli of all humanity, but from my particular community. My need for reconnection to something larger grew only bigger over time.

      After these lessons (like, “formal religious beliefs actually impede spirituality” – WOW, my heart has not sensed a truer thing spoken by a spiritual teacher before…), I am now feeling that the teachings from the spiritual journey I have been on for the past several years (a 12 step program for eating disorders, & the kundalini yoga) have actually, all along, been the Creator holding my hand and gradually walking me home, in a sense (toward my spiritual inheritance, but without disconnecting me from the extended human family of connections and deeper spiritual insights I’ve made along the way). This feels like an enormous gift.

      Honestly, my prayer is for you folks to have a presence in all Jewish schools in the diaspora. (Perhaps other schools would be open to it as well, I don’t know,  but I know I would have benefitted enormously from your insights as a child and teenager when my world was crumbling around me). Just feeling very grateful right now.

      I have discovered that is not a religion and the correct way to pray.

      Kabbalah just confirms that there is something more…a higher wisdom in a practical way.

      Kabbalah is not religion, mystism, healing, reiki, and everything that I thought was spiritual and beyond the human realm. Hence needless to say my curiosity to know when kabbalah is !

      I actually started this course in 2017 , but stopped as it was overwhelming at that time.  I am amazed now by how truly comfortable I am in receiving this information about the science of Kabbalah, understanding of egoism, and the “way” to pray if I wish to transcend into the upper worlds toward the Creator.
