    Hi Tony,

    This isn’t about this weeks lesson but I need to work through something I anticipate as block to my connecting with the lessons. I watched most of the related videos, I’m doing the reading and as a women I feel excluded by the use of “he/him” when referencing the Creator. Obviously the Creator isn’t a man and is both sexless and genderless. I get that. At the same time, hearing exclusively masculine pronouns makes it harder for me (and many women) to feel directly connected to the teachings.  I know this tradition has deep roots in Hebrew language and culture, but I wonder if there’s a way to hold both the traditional phrasing and a more inclusive understanding at the same time, maybe by occasionally naming that balance out loud?

    Get ready to open myself up to learning new ways of perceiving. Begin to question the impact of longstanding thoughts/beliefs about my purpose and how they have impacted me and those around me. I hope for a wake up call that makes sense. I hope to be inspired to learn more.

    Hi Everyone! My name is JD, I’m from the Bay Area in California. I’ve been asking the universe to help me set foot on a spiritual journey while feeling connected to community. It’s been a year or of seeking/asking. Nothing has truly called me until I heard an inspiring teacher explaining Kabbalah recently on a podcast. It felt overwhelming and like maybe this is it. I’m here to to learn, connect, expand, rewire, receive and give.
