Thank you for this first video and summary. I have questions but am going to think more on them before I ask too many. One being what are your thoughts about using and praying from books like the Siddur. From what I understand they were utilized by Kabbalists including the Ari. If it is good, could you please give some pointers on how to utilize said books to their fullest potential.

I have often felt anxiety and depressing, and I’ve found that careful and meaningful prayer has helped me grow so much. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thank you so much.

I am so tired. I have dealt with depression and other issues since I was a kid. I have felt that I have no real control over my life. I have had the blessing of being introduced to Kabbalah at a young age, but am only now truly beginning to get a real glimpse on how it can help me do what I was meant to do, To receive the Light of Hashem, and then give it back, to HIM, to those around me.

I anticipate that this course will help with that goal.

Thank you for asking this question and giving me an opportunity to think on it.

Shalom! I am wanting to deepen my love for and understanding of The Creator, Hashem. I have read many books, but feel this here is a gateway to an experiential path to learn not just about Kabbalah, but how to live it.

Willing to come as I am, as if I know nothing. Just want to give back to God what little I can in return for all He does for me.

Getting to know you all through the course will be great!

Shalom!
