    Hey Magi,

    We can’t really give advice in this area since Kabbalah doesn’t ask these questions, but the safest and easiest is just to expose her to the wisdom so she knows what it is and where to find it. I would steer clear of having discussions and answer/question type interaction. If she’s interested later you can provide books for her to read. If she’s 3 like you said now, then we have a few children’s books in the bookstore.

    Next to that, just be an example. What that means will change over time a little bit but just try to show that you’re happy and you have a positive and stable approach to life.

    Good luck!

    Chris

    Hi Beverly,

    Everyone has different flavors along the way, but of course the common discernment is that the ego certainly rules us and aims us only towards ourselves all the time. This is kind of a general statement, but truly this is all you need in order to ask for correction. As long as your in an environment that will help you “find your footing” you’ll see where you need to put the effort. The effort is never against the ego since we are certainly powerless against it.

    It’s not about shedding the ego like you mentioned, but more correctly it’s using the ego correctly. When the Creator reveals your nature to you, what do you do? If you get rid of it, you have no need for the Creator…

    Thanks!

    Hey Semsem,

    There are many feelings and sensations and sudden moments of clarity that often come on the path, but it’s easy to be swept by these into our own thoughts and desires to receive for ourselves which of course is only the ego, distancing us from the goal, even though in our imagination it seems as if we’re coming closer.

    We’ll receive these little awakenings but it’s important to aim them correctly. The best advice would be to go and read something from the sources which will aim you correctly.

    Thanks!

    Hi Humehr,

    The method of Kabbalah does not include meditation so there’s no real answer for you here.

    Thanks!

    Vessel would be the ability to bestow, otherwise there’s no light. Reflected light becomes the vessel.

    We don’t label the will to receive as a vessel, although without it there is no vessel, which assumes they’re tied to one another in spirituality – the intention and the desire.

    It’s incorrect to label Ein Soft as a world since it’s only the upper force, which is why it’s written that there are 5 worlds. “This world” isn’t a world in the same sense since it’s a complete lack of bestowal. Kabbalists call this the imaginary world, the perception within the ego.
