In the reading from Awakening to Kabbalah it states, “Anything that happens in our universe is a result of events that occur in the upper world and cascades to ours.” I am struggling to understand this concept as I perceive a lot of chaos in this material world, what events in the upper world where our root resides are bringing on this degree of suffering? As I think I understand, the root or maybe Creator chose to awaken the point in the heart in the desires clothed by this skin Joseph. I did not have a choice on timing for this awakening. But, I now have true freedom of choice where those points in the heart that lie dormant do not have this freedom. Question, why not awaken all the points in the heart as the awakening appears under the control of the upper force and not the individuals in this world? Why not give all the same freedom of choice at same time? Would this shorten our evolution? I am trying to understand how I can truly have an impact when much seems predetermined by the upper world.

Is there a true absence in balancing software or is this just normal form of evolution? From the big bang to now the years of evolution of the still, vegatative, and animate have been many to meet natural connection and harmony in Nature’s law. These years were filled with much chaos before harmony, yet the balancing software which at first seemed nonexistent, did prevail. It has been stated, Nature will bring the human to speaking level and connection in completion with Creator. Whether by punishment of by following guidance of the Light’s correction humanity will evolve, would this not be the balancing software that must always exist as it is a quality of Nature?
I ask this question in context of my contemplation and work towards absorbing, there is none else besides Him.
March 27, 2022 at 12:50 pm EDT in reply to: Preparation Question: What does it mean to connect with others? In what desire are we connected? #284920JosephParticipantTo shift from an egotistical perception of reality to a perception from bestowal, first I really need to have the wisdom in my heart that there is none else besides Him. Once this fills the heart then true spiritual connection will facilitate the shift from egoism to desire to bestow in order to love Creator and the other. I have no real experience of this but long for this to be a way of life for all.

First, my understanding is we only have points in the heart and souls get created by the connection in the ten. Did they already have souls instead of just points in the heart? Is the connection of soul to Sefirot predetermined, part of process, or people need to be purposefully put together as there is a way to determine what Sefirot they are connected to? Does this even apply in this manner to the ten we will be entering?
March 20, 2022 at 12:20 pm EDT 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? #284344JosephParticipantI have been imprisoned for over 20 years in an egoistic solitary confinement, I want the light to open the prison doors, I want to evolve from isolation and being part of current world problems, I want to evolve into connection and letting the light transform the world. The ego has told me lies saying the spiritual desire can evolve within me and the world while staying safe in isolation. My last 20 years are a testament to the deceptive egoistic falsehood. I desire to connect and help others to connect.
March 17, 2022 at 1:41 pm EDT in reply to: What was my best experience from the previous course? What do I expect from this course? #284142JosephParticipantMy best experience from last course is still unfolding; living to the truth there is none else besides him. What I place faith in for this course is to meet my egoistic performance anxiety fear in the presence of reforming light correction in order to live to Creator’s purpose and correcting this in myself in order to love the other. Very hard to truly love when hiding within a fear based isolation boundary.
