Since 2006, I have had no more questions about the meaning of life and who I am. His Voice, and His Light, illuminating and resounding through my whole Beingness Revealed the simple Truth: I Am THAT, what the Creator IS, an aspect of His Beingness, fulfilling whatever Purpose He has for this life. I absolutely Love Him and all of His Creations and I gladly, gratefully, and completely surrender to His Will and Guidance. He IS the Answer! There is no doubt, no fear, no lingering sense of lack on any level.
But, for sure the Creator Knows why I am in KabU, for He has led me to this Path of Kabbalah.  For sure, for many decades now, I have felt drawn to the mystery of the Tree of Life and the Hebrew Aleph Bet.  The works of Edgar Cayce, and then the works of Helena Blavatsky sparked that interest and propelled me on my Journey into Spirituality in my twenties, and I am 75 now. The mysteries of Quantum Physics and epigenetics have been additional spurs to uncover life’s deeper meanings. And other Teachings, beautiful Teachers, far too many to detail here.
But Kirpal Singh and the Voice of God ended my search and my doubts about who I really AM.
So we will see. I am HERE. Taking these Supreme KabU Courses. Why, will unfold as it unfolds. There is no place else to BE. There really IS None Else Besides Him. He IS the ONE and the ALL.
Thank you dear Seth for your help and patience.
Blessing to all.

What do I expect from this course? #318335JohnParticipantMy best experience from the previous course is deepening my day-by-day, even minute-by-minute Awareness of the Creator’s Infinite Love and Presence in my life.
JohnParticipantWhat has been most inspiring? The real enthusiasm of the Teachers.
What have I learned about myself in this process:Â This is still unfolding.
What I wholeheartedly wish for my fellow Kabbalist students is total and complete fulfillment in adhesion with the Creator, right in this lifetime.
April 17, 2023 at 11:34 pm EDT in reply to: Ask anything about week 5 lesson and materials and get an answer from a senior Kabbalah instructor. #318249JohnParticipantI have three questions regarding the reading assignment: “A Speech for the Completion of The Zohar”,
Quoting from that document:
“And because of the great difficulty in the matter, our sages advised us: “Make for yourself a rav [2] and buy for yourself a friend.” This means that one should choose for oneself an important and renowned person to be one’s rav, from whom one will be able to come to engaging in Torah and Mitzvot in order to bring contentment to one’s Maker. This is so because there are two facilitations to one’s rav:
Since he is an important person, the student can bestow contentment upon him, based on the sublimity of one’s rav, since bestowal becomes as reception for him. This is a natural fuel, so one can always increase one’s acts of bestowal. And once a person grows accustomed to engage in bestowal upon the rav, one can transfer it to engaging in Torah and Mitzvot Lishma towards the Creator, too, since habit becomes a second nature.
Equivalence of form with the Creator does not help if it is not forever, that is, “until He who knows all mysteries will testify that he will not turn back to folly.” This is not so with equivalence of form with one’s rav. Since the rav is in this world, within time, equivalence of form with him helps even if it is only temporary and he later turns sour again.”And the following paragraphs say we should engage in coming to equivalence of form with our rav.
My first question then is should we consider Dr. Michael Laitman our rav? Or should we choose Baal HaSulam, the Rashbi, or the Ari? Or some other Kabbalist, perhaps even Tony Kosinec? How to proceed?
And my second question: if we do engage in this practice, how is this different from idol worship?
And my third question: there is also this issue: From another Spiritual Path there is a kind of warning – pick your Teacher very carefully because you will not be able to rise any higher in your Spiritual development than he/she has achieved. We are told that the Rashbi did ascend to all of the 125 degrees of attainment and came into perfect adhesion with the Creator. And we can assume that the Ari and Baal HaSulam also came into perfect adhesion with the Creator. But is this a Fact? How do we know? And what of rav Laitman? If I practice this program of aligning all of my inversion of desires, from receiving only for myself to receiving to give pleasure to my rav, and if my chosen rav has not attained the complete transformation, will this not be limitation, perhaps even a negative energy on my desire to come into perfect adhesion with the Creator?
Blessings to all.
April 16, 2023 at 11:26 pm EDT in reply to: Preparation Question: How can we get in touch with the upper force and act with it mutually? #318139JohnParticipantIn the very instant that the Creator Created the Creature, with the Intent to fill it with unbounded Delight – In that very instant, simultaneously, (there is no time in Eternity) all of the issues of correcting the Creature to receive only to give back to the Creator, were accomplished because the Creator is Perfect and can only Create Perfection.
This is clearly explained in the Preface to the Zohar. It is also explained there that we are only going through what seems to be a correction process in this world because the Creator Wills His Creation, and His Creatures, to experience this Correction process on all the levels of the Spiritual Worlds.
So we can all take Heart that our Perfect Adhesion with the Creator is already a Fact of Nature, and this is Truth whether we are still following the path of pain, or the Path of Light and Correction, ahead of the curve we might say. It is a done deal though, for sure, plain and simple. He only creates Perfection, right? So give it up. Go through this correction process willingly and let it unfold, just the way it already IS. Questioning, fretting, and doubting only clouds the Way.
Love is all there is.
