No, the only thing to have in mind is the goal of life. If that’s front of mind, the rest will be correct.
In the same vector as the spiritual work, one can also do things one needs to practically find someone.
But to clarify what you want and why, is already, along with the above mentioned, a sort of prayer
Just to support and not be against. They don’t need to study or be actively interested in it.
Look, I married someone who studied with us, and moreover I actively checked with others to ensure she was solidly a part of it. But that’s not required and may not even be possible for everyone. The standard is what I said: supportive and not against because this is my soul and you can take anything else from me but not this.
They need to eventually learn that I’m on this path, for life, and a certain amount of my free time will be dedicated to it. And they need to fully support that.
No, no – do whatever you want with romantic love. That’s nothing more than what birds do when the male dances in front of the female. It’s on the animate level. Kabbalah deals with higher things.
That said, Kabbalists always tried to be married so that the animate body of ours is taken care of and doesn’t bother us about that.
You need to simply be good to those around you – approximately according to what’s generally expected of generally “nice” people. Not exceedingly nice though.
On top of that, I need to study the Wisdom of Kabbalah in all of my truly free time (which everyone has plenty of, when we look honestly).
These measures ensure that one has a balanced approach to corporeality, first of all, because beginners often waste their energy and thus tire themselves trying to “do something” spiritual in relation to corporeality. Corporeal life is one surface, on which the most spiritual thing is to not do anything, by which I mean not to do anything “spiritual” because all you’ll think to do will be wrong, and about this it is written “sit and do nothing – that’s better.” But your barometer is what I said above, to be good, normal. A Kabbalist beginner usually has some problem or other with this advice, and doesn’t realize how much of a problem keeping it, is. In fact, just with this, one stumbles for many years usually.
The rest, the Light will take care of. It advances you, when you study. Additionally, the precise spiritual work will become clearer. No, it’s not normal for Kabbalists to be depressed. On the contrary, to be in great elation. But yes, it’s sometimes that way at the start.
