ParticipantTo become similar to the Creator, perceiving the desires of others more than my own desires, so that what I receive is with the intention of bestowing.

ParticipantI need to connect with you so we progress together. Maybe if I help you, you will help someone too.
March 6, 2023 at 5:54 am EST in reply to: Preparation Question: Starting a new course in Kabbalah is similar to a fetus moving on to a new trimester. The warm and fulfilling womb is still the same, but the desire and needs of the future human are evolving. Before we start the first week let’s set our expectations. How do we want the womb (Light) to influence and evolve us? What do we desire to achieve in this semester? #314448John Caton
ParticipantI like the puzzle analogy. I want my intentions to be such that the shape of myself, as a piece of the puzzle, connects to the larger picture.

ParticipantI can’t identify a single experience. There seems to be a gradual unfolding like when dawn is arriving before the notable event, sunrise itself. It’s awesome, but at the same time fearsome; meaning that I must make changes within me that seem impossible. This past course leaves me thinking they are impossible for me to do, but through prayer and connection with you, they will happen.

ParticipantI am a cell of a larger whole body that nourishes me, but without my contribution to it, cannot live to provide my nourishment.

ParticipantI need to refine my desires and my intentions behind them so that my love for others is for their benefit and not mine.
