Is there any priority to the classes in the Graduate Section, or is it strictly ‘dealers choice’? If I cannot make all of the sessions available, are there any sessions that I should prioritize after the Young Group?

Graduate ClassThank you for your response. To clarify, my inquiry isn’t driven by a desire to find inconsistencies or to approach this from a strictly legalistic angle. It stems from a personal connection—specifically, regarding my father, who passed away without having explored the Wisdom of Kabbalah. This extends to all the individuals in my life and around the world who have not pursued this path of knowledge. My hope is that they have still achieved some form of spiritual growth in their lives.
I’m curious about spiritual growth and whether it’s possible beyond Kabbalah’s teachings. Although Kabbalah is often seen as the sole path to spiritual enlightenment, I’ve noticed others, unfamiliar with Kabbalah, displaying signs of spiritual progress. For instance, before I explored Kabbalah, I felt a deep connection to the idea that we are all part of a single soul. Moreover, I’ve seen people reflect spiritual truths that align with Kabbalah’s insights, suggesting that spiritual advancement isn’t exclusive to any one doctrine. Considering the majority who don’t study Kabbalah, can they too experience spiritual growth? It seems restrictive to claim Kabbalah as the only way, especially when the essence of creation seems to naturally guide individuals towards enlightenment, a process some refer to as the path of suffering. How does this view integrate with Kabbalah’s teachings?

Great question and Answer. Great provision of links to source material, will watch! Very bright jewels.
Why do our sources speak so despairingly about dogs?
In the morning lesson yesterday, the article spoke about how a dog and a donkey is lower than a beast. What does this mean? I remember the teaching that, generally speaking, what is written does not refer to anything in this world. Can you open this up for me a little bit?
