The best part of the last course for me was the part about the role of the ego in the group and how it helps in our development. After years of thinking I was supposed to be getting rid of the ego and working to that end, this course really highlighted the fact that my ego is as big as it ever was. It showed me how tricky the ego can be. It makes you think it’s shrinking but it’s like squeezing a balloon. It’s just popped up somewhere else and is filling itself with something else without me noticing. I can see it clearly now. For that l’m thankful.
Can’t wait to be with the friends in this course.
My best experience occurred during the last course as I found myself relaxing and surrendering to the Kabbalistic process. From many years of spiritual endeavor I have come to a place where I can imagine myself beyond my actual attainment. My yearning is sincere and committed. I was drawn to Kabbalah and over time have come to see it as a type of finishing school. However, without the minyan I began to have my doubts that I could move further forward, at least at the desired pace. I love the consciousness I have attained but I can honestly, now, accept that there are many steps remaining and I believe Kabbalah offer the method for perceiving the steps and the method for taking the climb. I look forward with a thrill to ending this life of self-centeredness! I love you, my friends!
My best experience was the accumulation of the previous courses that enlightened me to be aware of the Creator’s joyful infinite thought and intention to share with each one of us as a whole, to share our joyful gratitude in return combined with our purpose to be like the Creator through a process. This process may be done through pain and suffering or through the practice of Torah and community.
