Out of curiosity, how many students of Kabbalah have been able to achieve full connection with the Creator? Or do most students spend their lives seeking without ever being able to achieve the full quality of the Upper Reality?
To true reality, as what we perceive through our 5 senses isn’t only limited, but also filtered through each, giving us a highly limited and subjective view.
True reality is much greater, it is all-encompassing, so Kabbalah teaches how to achieve this greater view beyond our corporeal form.
The fact that this whole separation to then get to ascend back to the Creator is all so we can eventually experience greater pleasures than first felt when we were still fully united with the Creator.
I suppose that this is somewhat similar to how we can only appreciate the lack of pain when we’ve already felt and known pain…
Hi,
I have a number of questions linked to what I’ve read this first week:
1) Since in ancient times, people communicated without the need for words, and therefore we lived in unity around the world, does this mean that the knowledge of Kabbalah was known across the globe, too? Or did the discovery of this knowledge happen after the “fall of the tower of Babel”?
2) If the desire degree of 1 is when we started to oppose ourselves to Nature and impose our will on the world, while 0 = level where we were all united, which is what we’re trying to get back to, does this mean that we, who are now at level 4, are technically trying to get back to 0? Are these levels then cyclical instead of linear?
3) If Adam (aka Domeh) means ‘similar’ to the Creator, then why did the Creator separate Eve from Adam? Is this a similar analogy to the myth of Eros and Psyche?
4) It is stated at some point that anyone who becomes altruistic will also receive omniscience, or total recall and total knowledge. Is there an equivalence here to the concept of the Akashic Field?
Thank you in advance for your help!
