it took a few tries irl to do the exercise and sometimes i don’t exactly do it completely, but, even then, i’m aware of what’s going on more; So, when i do succeed to a certain degree: first of all, it’s like a quiet observer’s private secret (and kind of fun, altruistic sneakiness? lol); secondly, i noticed that nothing really changes if i don’t interfere with the moment’s flow; meaning: i used to think certain interactions or “decisions” etc were each time very worthy of attention and standing up for what i thought was right (or what i thought i wanted). Ultimately, it doesn’t seem to matter most of the time and somewhat curiously, perhaps, my special someone has been happier. Oh! and i liked especially the idea of our special shared space/moments and i laughed when i realized that they can be literally any mundane activity, as banal as can be, but… the “quiet observer’s private secret” mentioned above is like a floating awareness of love and harmony… that, maybe is ‘bestowing’ ? although not really giving anything in particular; just room to breathe and be happy (which doesn’t seem so insignificant after all). and finally, it’s not really like this, but seems a bit like baby-sitting a toddler, enjoying their exploration and experience of their expanding inner joy… but ! this is very new, so, we’ll have to see how it develops… thanks for this Lab for personal growth. i look forward to continuing and hoping for the best
good day to all ! i’m Csilla (which is pronounced Chill-a and the meaning is like “star”) originally my family is from Hungary and i began KABU’s course “Kabbalah Revealed” hoping to learn something about Kabbalah and became amazed by what’s been going on in real life, as a result from the weeks in that course. i hope to be dazzled by the Zohar’s Light, as it seems to be full of life enhancing secrets. i’m truly grateful that the opportunities to expand my conceptions and outlook on life in this way have been made available. best wishes and good luck to everyone !
as i sit here trying to think of what it means to me, i’m reminded after a while that it’s like everything is calm in the world and it feels like being in Winter pyjamas, under a down comforter, snug and warm. but, upon seeing the quote, the first thing coming up was my mind thinking it could be eyn od milvado from the biblical verse and then, the song by Avraham Fried (found it online and had a listen). tbh, before the “after a while” i felt a bit of a struggle to even conceptualize, as if i hadn’t enough mental energy to ‘merge’, so i’m grateful for this Preparation question, since it brought me to abandon my resistance…
i think the best experience was the overall happiness in spontaneously perceiving a Divine Oneness behind everything that’s been happening to me during the weeks of the course; and, an inner smile every time i realize how simple things are and laughing at myself for how much drama i was perceiving as chaos. i truly expect these types of things to continue taking hold on me and deepening throughout the next course… thanks !
the most of what i learned doesn’t feel like the new terms and concepts introduced, which weren’t yet so new or maybe not yet enough to really see where this approach toward kabbalah is going, but rather my feeling is that there’s been an inkling of a deepening of my natural/ metaphysical processes of ascertaining life while living a holistic lifestyle (of sorts). that’s been inspiring during the weeks of the course.
i would wish for my fellow students, who similar to the course – i’ve only begun to get an inkling (which inkling also extends to myself on this new path, ) – i think is to continue discovering more about one’s deeper inner self, to find the connections between things in the puzzle of life and to perceive how the puzzle pieces and connections are all harmoniously working together toward the greater good and peace.
based on the content of the video itself my answer to the question was a bit like the expression “just do it”, as for instance, if an absolute beginner who needs to get used to the process, But if you already believe and pray then interacting is more natural. In general, considering the lessons and readings, i think the ways of kabbalah as expressed in this course, guide a seeker of truth more deeply into the experience of what’s being taught.
