Kabbalah can’t believe in anything since it’s based only on the laws of nature. The revelation of these laws and participation with them, when observed, a person can then say they “believe” them, which really means they feel them as truth. Lies are mere attempts to change reality. Our goal is to change ourselves.
Chris – KabU InstructorModeratorWe of course need the mind to perform calculations, but the main thing in the study is the heart. If you change the heart then the new mind follows. Even more, if you chase spirituality with your mind then you’ll certainly be led astray since the mind only serves the heart.
Chris – KabU InstructorModeratorBorn out of the image of the Creator. Him being the will to bestow, existence from existence, and the created being as the will to receive – the opposite – existence from absence.
Chris – KabU InstructorModeratorThat’s not exactly how Kabbalists describe it. It’d be more accurate to say the “descent” is the introduction of the perception of separated parts instead of one whole. The greater the descent, the greater separation until completely “in order to receive”.
Chris – KabU InstructorModeratorKabbalah doesn’t relate to a person’s qualities. This is given to a person from nature and it’s not what is broken or what needs correction. The only thing a person needs to correct is how they relate to others and through them to the Creator. The revelation of these “obstacles” that prevent a person from relating to others correctly, should bring joy since now they have a reason to turn to Him for correction.
Thanks!
