In the previous course I found out there could be actual free will, exercised by a human being in this world. I learned what I perceive is just a fraction of a fraction of what is actually out there and I am subject to a greater whole which is so enormous and complex, that it’s only perceivable through an inner feeling.
I realized in order to be able to merge with the creator from within the will to receive, one has to give up all egoistic desires and replace them with altruistic ones, through the practice of loving one’s neighbour as one’s self.
My role is to correct myself, and through the correction I will help in the ultimate correction if all souls.
What blew my mind was the fact that my nemesis is myself. I might perceive him as another person but we are the same force acting in different perspectives.
That’s a lot!
It took me a week to just come at peace with it and now I’m practicing giving love to him. The more I give him love, the more I feel better. It’s very counter intuitive, but it works.
My answer to this questin is this:
If one can feel the creator, he or she is able to feel that the reality is the action of the creator. It’s crucial to be able to feel the creator first.
What inspired me in this course?
The inspiration is that if we humans turn our egoistic desires into altruistic desires, we actually can transform our present reality which is full of self-centered actions and so empty of Love!
What have I learned about myself in this process?
I learned that I resist the change from an egoistic to an altruistic way of being. If the world is to change, the majority of people who take part in it must change too, which brings up the question “Who is first to change?” and I think, we as future Kabalists should bear this burden of being the first ones who ignite this fire, for a greater good. This is hard to swim against the current, but if we consider the fact that the current is made up of the movement of every individual, we conclude that by changing the majority of these individuals, the current will reverse.
What do I wish for my fellow students?
I wish for every one of us, holistic strength and resilience, a soft and tender heart that can be as hard as a diamond if needed. An open and curious mind that can be as sharp as a razor blade in time of need. And a healthy body that can carry us through this change.
