To view reality from the perspective of the Creator means to see what it is to bestow, without any desire to receive for any separate self.
I love the quote, “Without my flesh, I shall see God.” And the statement that we cannot know our selves without knowing who God is. So: I want to see and know God.
By focusing inward, with help of community who are similarly focused, making spiritual development our primary goal.
What inspired me most about the course was its structure. It was so well organized, nothing extraneous or overwhelming, very clear. I actually enjoyed the multiple choice and true/ false tests, which showed me that I (usually) grasped the gist of things, which hasn’t been very true when I’ve tried to study Lurianic Kabbalah in the past. What I learned about myself was that I have no idea why I’m doing this since it doesn’t make sense to this human mind to want to give without receiving in return. All those years of the women’s movement, about not giving up my self for others! Yet I feel very pulled to continue. What I wish for my fellow students is that we stick with this until we make true progress, which I hope will include intensive and true interaction among us, creating a quality of relationship that I’ve never had before.
