When was the first time you sensed existential questions within you, and what did it take for you to listen to their call?

As a child I knew there was more to reality than the mundane vicious circle everyone was on. It took me years of searching what the world called wisdom to arrive at some form of realization. I tried answering the call several times, but it was almost as if I had the wrong code for what I was sensing and was so eager to move toward.

I felt it as a child, and it has taken all of my 63 years to get here.  I’ve always felt the spiritual world but had no knowledge of how to connect with it and the Creator.  It’s just recent that I began to study Kabbalah.

When I was little I had questions about what happens when we die. I was freaking out, having nightmares and finally asked my mom. She told me to think about where I was before I was born and this appeased me. Around the same time I had a meltdown at the Oyster Festival. Everything was grey and meaningless, I remember saying I didn’t want to go home and I didn’t want to stay there. My mom bought me a turtle thing and it calmed me down.
Along the way I doubted everything, I would have to figure it all out. It wasn’t until I found a teacher (Rav) that I heard a message my heart could accept.

sice I was a child I had this questions , wondering about all in nature,  the son, sky  trees, plants, animals , the seasons, asked my parents for answers , reading books  and followed different ways ( meditation, yoga, etc  to receive answers and reach spirituality  ;and  finally I discover Kabbalah  .    I thought it was by accident  but I know now better  . All is in the hand of the Creator  .I will continue study Kabbalah  to find solutions, answers, its now the most important  in my live. and try building good connections and  follow the path of Kabbalah

About 13 years ago I HAD to go on a spiritual quest, but before that I had some strange, I could say mystical, experiences from my very young age. I was searching for answers in Philosophy, Occult sciences, Eastern teachings, Shamanism even Kabbalah (not this Kabbalah, you know all those 4000+ results on Amazon; that Kabbalah 😊), I must admit that about 5 years ago I stumbeled upon THIS Kabbalah, but it didn’t click… And I had a big rejection of Western religious techings (which in my mind included, Kabbalah too; but now I know it’s a science). But about 2 years ago something in me said that there is a reason I was born in the west. I went back to THIS Kabbalah and it clicked. I’ve read a lot of online texts in kabbalah.info library, watched kabbalahinfo youtube… up to a point that I saw that I can’t progress on my own any longer. Then I finally joined KabU and now I’m here.

I was about 4 or 5yo.  <i>2015 is when finally obeyed. It’s been tugging at me all of my life.</i>
