Hi Blue,

1) Reincarnation happens on the level of desire. We all have this desire called the point in the heart. This is our spiritual potential. If we realize this potential, this grows into a desire called a soul. If not, this same desire continues to reincarnate again and again until it gets fully realized.

Check out this blog post from Rav Laitman for more details: https://laitman.com/2015/06/what-happens-to-the-soul-after-death/

2) We’ll learn about the process of creation in the upcoming lessons. And in the more advanced semesters, we’ll study the spiritual quality of fear and what it symbolizes in our spiritual work.

3) The book of revelations is not a Kabbalistic book, so I cannot comment on it.

Hi Selah,

1. It’s the same formula, externally we continue to exist in this world, so if your car gets stolen, the normal thing to do is to file a police report and insurance claim. Internally on the other hand, we need to try to see how EVERYTHING in the world is coming to us directly from a single benevolent force. This is called “there is none else besides Him” and that He is the “good that does good”.

But if everything is coming directly from Him and He is good, why don’t we feel everything that happens as something good, why is there still so much suffering in life?

This is because our world is governed by our egoistic nature. This egoistic nature is opposite to the Creator’s nature. Because of that, it inverts the Creator’s goodness into something bad. It’s just like multiplying numbers, a positive times a negative equals negative.

So as long as we remain within this egoistic nature, we will continue to see and feel more suffering and horrors in the world. But if we correct our nature to be similar to the Creator’s nature, we will reveal the true reality in which only goodness exists and that our previous egoistic state was nothing more than a dream.

We’ll learn more about this in the upcoming lessons, in the meantime, check out this blog post from Rav Laitman for more details: https://laitman.com/2011/06/how-can-we-justify-the-creator/

2. I’m not an expert in other methods, I cannot comment on what they do or teach there. See my reply above to Sudhi about mixing spiritual methods.

Hi Hensy,

Yes, we first need to develop the desire. We do that by studying Kabbalah and trying to connect with our fellow students, with their points in the heart. This in turn grows our desire and causes inner changes to take place, until we begin to feel that these are not just fellow students, but rather parts of my soul. And this development in turn causes positive changes in the world, allowing others to start growing their points in the heart. We’ll learn about this in the more advanced lessons.

Hi Selah,

1) If you’re talking about a personal situation, then you need to deal with it in the normal way that society deals with such things: to protect yourself, fight, sue, etc. Studying Kabbalah does not turn us into monks that are removed from this world. Throughout the entire spiritual ladder, we continue to exist in this world so we must continue to operate our lives according to the rules and laws of this world.

2) If you’re talking about the world in general, that you see a lot of evil in the world, in that case we need to say that we see this evil because we ourselves are not corrected. We’ll learn this in the lesson on the perception of reality, that the external world is a reflection of my internal world, of my own uncorrected egoistic state. It’s like I have these dirty glasses through which I see the whole world as dirty. The moment I clean my own glasses, I’ll look at the same world, but now it’s clean and perfect.

Hi Sudhi,

It’s up to you to decide, but if you want to succeed in Kabbalah (or in any spiritual practice really) you should practice it without mixing other things into it. Otherwise it’s like following two different GPS systems. One leads you to the goal through the west highway, while the other through the east highway. If you follow both, you’ll just wind up going in circles.

Hi,

Maybe it was mispronounced, but it should have been : From the aforesaid (From the above), it should be clear that the only element lacking in our world is our perception of the Creator.
