First Question: Am I right iu assuming that Ego can work through your surroundings and outside of time (for instance, you are born into a situation that puts you a grave disadvantage, and/or your surroundings misunderstand you and for various reasons build a very disproportionate, negative picture of who you are and accordingly does their best to stop any attempts to make it well in life)?

Second Question: Gil Shir mentions that a big ego can in fact work For you (in the long run). I can see how that is true, but what do you do if right now you have PTSD and ADHD that constantly interferes with your attempts to read, follow a lesson, and think about what you have read or heard? What I’,m saying is that I get constantly side tracked by these things, and trying to study Kabbalah seems to trigger a lot of PTSD, which in turn slows me down. On top of it all I’m a very slow reader…

My who9le life have been building up to this point, to me being able to study Kabbalah, and now I am very afraid that I may not be able to keep up.

I apologize in advance for my lengthy text, and I see the second week has already begun, so I understand if my questions don’t get answered. There will hopefully be another time.

Thank you so much to all our instructors, to Albert, and to my fellow students, for everything.

I expect that we will be introduced to some of the fundamentals of Kabbalah.

For now, I just desire my spiritual understanding to continue to grow and to become better at dealing with my ego because it is so disruptive.

Hello everybody, I’m Jack, and I live in Scandinavia, Europe.

I have taken this course before but wasn’t able to stick with it, so I am grateful to have a chance to start afresh. Thank you to our instructors and to my fellow students for making this possible.

Baruch HaShem.
