Good Morning! I have a question about word choices in the statement “Love covers all Crimes.” I take it that the Kabbalists use specific words for specific reasons. The word “Crimes” in English is rather strong and draws a punishment. I am not sure how nuanced the original language this is written in, but in other areas, the phrase “bad deeds” is used. So you get where I’m coming from, the ancient Greeks had 7 nuanced words for Love: Agape (Unconditional), Eros (Sexual), Philia (Friendship), Storge (Between a parent and child), Philautia (Self-Love –The type of Love we are battling), and Xenia (Hospitality, Generosity or Reciprocity). Was there a specific reason why the Kabbalists used the word “Crimes”?
GregParticipantAs a “Young” person, we’re not supposed to do much in the way of dissemination. We’re told to give someone a book, but not given any direction as to which book. Is there a recommendation I’m missing? I’d like to give something or some explanation to my wife as to why I disappear for an hour and a half at a time…. I don’t know how to succinctly communicate.
GregParticipantThank you. I am truly changed. I am inspired to connect to others in the work toward the goal.
GregParticipantWe will look for ways to solve problems by connecting to the needs of the others, with the understanding that the others will be doing the same for us.

Moreover, it’s said that aiding others accelerates our own spiritual ascent. How does this dynamic operate? What does supporting fellow seekers with a spiritual inclination entail? #382542GregParticipantWe build a Kli together.
