Gianni – KabU InstructorModeratorOf course it’s best that the change comes more quickly and qualitatively. Like the difference between feeling the father’s belt lashing vs. feeling the sting of realization that you stand in violation of the house rules, after which you instantly straighten up and correct yourself, avoiding the blow entirely. We stand in violation of the laws of Nature. Meaning we reside in a state of disconnection, in which we will feel increasing darkness, as the integral force of bestowal and love nears us. That force, we feel as bad if we are not adapted to it, in the attitudes between us. If humanity would undergo even slight changes, to be just a bit more connected, all the problems would disappear overnight. That’s why it’s worthwhile to first absorb the correction yourself and then to also share it with others, which is why KabU exists.

Gianni – KabU InstructorModeratorYou don’t need to overcome your habits. It’s also a question whether anything you’re doing is wrong. The only thing you need is the study that draws the Reforming Light. It can make all the needed changes. A person stands no chance of changing himself, and moreover he doesn’t know what he should change. Only the intention needs to change from reception to bestowal, and only the Light can make this change for us.

Gianni – KabU InstructorModeratorHi Camila, I’m sorry I missed this. The spiritual adaptor is the Screen, and this itself is quite complex. But in short, it’s the intention to bestow that is over the desire to receive, which has to have first undergone the Tzimzum (restriction). The Ark is something else but it’s related – although everything in Kabbalah is related since it speaks of a complete, interconnected system. You can read more about it here. https://laitman.com/2013/11/the-ark-of-the-covenant/

Gianni – KabU InstructorModeratorHi Danielle,
You can think of this in different ways. It depends how deeply we scrutinize it. You can say that the desires of this world are less pronounced, but that’s not quite true. Actually, they grow. It’s just that the Point in the Heart, which is the desire for the spiritual world, which is above this world, is in opposition with the desires of this world. Because the Point in the Heart fell from the Upper World, and the Upper World is exalted, swallows this entire universe in its measure of sublimity and importance and works in the opposite direction, towards qualities of the Creator. So, your regular desires remain, like you still somehow could enjoy, say, sitting and building a sand castle like when you were a child – but there are other desires that, because of their importance, cover this desire, even to the point that you don’t feel it in you anymore. You got more mature desires. Now there are desires that are more mature than all the pursuits there are in this world. Everyone will develop to this level eventually, and they will then wonder how they could waste time doing all kinds of things of this life. Of course, after the initial awakening of the Point in the Heart, this desire, like the desires of our world are grown through the influence of society, one needs a spiritual society, a group of others who also have the Point in the Heart, to help grow this desire to the sufficient magnitude to realize it.

Gianni – KabU InstructorModeratorHi Paul,
Those Still, Vegetative, Animate and Speaking are truly the ones we are familiar with in our world. Except that to Kabbalists, we are not yet on the speaking degree and have nothing from it in us. Our thoughts and desires and dreams – all that we have belongs to the animal degree. Dolphins also talk, and so do trees and other species. Emanating some communicative substance or sound is not called speaking in the language of Kabbalah. That refers to a spiritual state already. And once I reach the first degree of spirituality I start-over this development of 4 Phases, but on the spiritual degrees, and yes they correspond to the 4 worlds Assiya, Yetzira, Beria, Atzilut. What I do have from the Upper World, which animals do not, is a single black Point called the Point in the Heart. First it is buried beneath the animal desires for many incarnations, and then it surfaces, demanding realization.

Gianni – KabU InstructorModeratorHi Marla,
I think you answered your own question. Study wherever you want, it is written, “one studies where the heart desires.” So, you have to check, not every place, but where your heart desires, and once you’ve done your check, that you felt it is the right place, the closest to the truth, you glue yourself to that place and only that place. If you have a Point in the Heart that is strong, then since that Point actually fell down from the Upper World that the Kabbalists are writing about, and because there, in truth, is not more than one method, rather Kabbalists write the opposite, that the way is along a “very narrow bridge”, it’s an invisible bridge one has to walk according to careful following of a specific method with a specific guide…so if your Point in the Heart is pronounced, it has a sense of where the truth is, the truth being that method it senses can lead it back to the root it belongs to in the Upper World. If that Point is not really ripe, then, in any case, it is not seeking such a direct method, which leaves no icons, jewelry, rituals to hold onto in this world and let the person feel that he is succeeding by them. And they too should study where their heart desires.
