So should we pray for anything other than to do everything for her name? Because the light of the creator is in all things all the worshipper myself included just wants to be able to perceive it. But if it could be perceived then there wouldn’t be a need for prayer so naturally instead of feeling closeness other feelings come up and those sometimes form thoughts, ideas so should we pray about those things too?
I posted this in week 1 but it was meant for here:
Can regular everyday people connect with the upper worlds without the Torah?
For example: a caveman fulfills his lower desires, for food, shelter, family…he then picks up a stick and carves a flute. he creates songs on it. Later he picks up some plants and creates dies, and draws what he sees in nature, animals, plants, everything in his visual field. There’s a kind of satisfaction of a higher desire, a feeling of connections with the creator. There is no social expectation for him to do these, things, so it seems that this is an exercise of free will.
The second example has to do with intuition. A flight is fully booked but only a quarter of the people who bought tickets arrive. The plane crashes and everyone who took it dies. Through some inexplicable force, the people who didn’t take the flights describe a gut feeling guiding them not to take it. Some are sure the creator was communicating with them, so they acted on their desire to be closer to the creator by abandoning their plans. Are they exercising free will?
I accidentally posted this in week 1 forums instead of week 2. Would still be great to get an answer!
Hi Seth, colleagues, my question is this:
