    I enjoy all the videos but the reading materials are hard to keep up with. it’s like I understand each word but it’s hard to comprehend the paragraph. sometimes it feels like it says a lot but means little. any tips on how to better utilize those reading materials? thanks!

    thank you for the reply. you mentioned  “The Creator created creation in a state of perfection”, then you mentioned “If you cancel the second state and we remain in the first state, then we remain in an unconscious state, which by itself is also not perfect.” so is it perfect or not perfect?  if not perfect, then he didn’t create something perfect, if perfect, then he didn’t need anything else to make it more perfect?

    why didn’t creator create us in the perfect state with consciousness? to begin with the state 3? if not possible, then there is something not possible for the creator? if he choose to be, why? so we get to have free will and he wants us to choose him via free will rather than create us choosing him automatically? if so, I see this makes sense. but still, is the stage 1 perfect or not perfect?

    how to understand below statement? still not sure why 3 states depends on each other.

    “When you examine the above three states, you will find that one completely necessitates the other, in a way that if one were to be canceled, the others would be canceled, too.

    If, for example, the third state—the inversion of the form of reception to the form of bestowal—had not materialized, it is certain that the first state in Ein Sof would never have been able to emerge, since the wholeness materialized there only because the future third state was already there, as though it is the present. All the wholeness that was depicted there in that state is like a reflection from the future into the present. But if the future could be canceled, there would not be any present. Thus, the third state necessitates the existence of the first state.”

    if we were created already experiencing unbounded fulfillment, eternity and perfection. what’s the point to descend, then try to climb back? what’s the purpose of this journey/circle?

     

    thanks

    there is indeed a purpose of my life despite I don’t really see it yet. there is a upper force created me in such way so I can learn from my experience and that experience is causing my desire to search for him and to reconnect with him.

    can you describe how your life has changed by learning Kabbalah? I remember reading something about the first 13 years, for those of you who are far upper at the ladder, how is your life different from us down here?

    thanks
