Let me see if I am understanding the screen: I need to turn my desires from pleasing myself, to pleasing the Creator, or in other words excepting the answer of my desires because it will please the Creator? Are we talking corporal desires, spiritual or both? Is this the act of being grateful or something else? Thanks!
EdParticipantMy desire for my fellow students is to no longer have our separate desires, but have one common desire to know the Creator in all of His fullness. We can build this common desire by wanting it and asking for the Creator’s help to bring it to pass.

I need to get in sync with my spiritual development and not just go with the flow of pain and suffering.

But these senses also are limited to the extent of the amount of data they receive. Furthermore, what little sense of “reality” does make it into our minds is further restricted by our beliefs, prejudices, and culture. Eventually, we begin to perceive that there is much more reality “out there.” The Wisdom of Kabbalah opens our hearts to the totality of the perception of “real” reality, and in the process makes us equivalent to the form of He who created everything, and being “like Him,” we see like He sees.
