    I get this weird sensation whenever I read any of these books. I’m swimming in an ocean and it seems like I’m heading toward a particular direction or sensation, but then I get these subtle drops from the side. It’s like I sense all the ocean things and I’m loving that; I love that experience of being in it. But then I get almost like a faint scent of something from the periphery, and it just touches and dissolves in. Like someone put a drop of essential oil in the water.

    Then when I think back later on what I read, it turns out all of it was about this unrelated stuff that kind of stealthily absorbed in from the side. It turns out the journey wasn’t the swim at all. It wasn’t getting to where I thought I was going. It was all about these seemingly unrelated things that slipped in where I wasn’t looking.

    Thank you so much. That is a relief.

    I got to sit in on the YouTube video, but not the Zoom call. (It’s hard for me to get away in the middle of a Sunday.) Will all the YouTubes and Zoom calls be midday on a Sunday?

    I read something in a course description that implied we’d eventually be put in groups of 10 to continue study. Will I still be able to participate in that if I’m not able to come to the Sunday Zoom calls?

    My world seems to get a lot better when I am studying. I’d like to see that expand outward even more, to all I see.

    I took these courses in 2008 and 2009. I studied and watched the daily lesson almost every day for a year. I read most of the books, except the Zohar, which seemed completely opaque to me at the time.
    My life changed very dramatically after that, to the point that I didn’t have time to study or follow the lessons at all. But I have always felt just as connected to what I learned. That never diminished. I can’t even recall how I thought of the world before I learned Kabbalah here. I had a sense I had learned everything I would ever need to know, and nothing since then has shaken that.
    But recently I have been drawn to read the Zohar, which I have owned all this time, but never thought I would be able to understand it. I picked it up again a few months ago. I have been reading it every day. And everything that seemed opaque to me before has become transparent. It makes sense now.
    Y’all must have done a lot of work and I absorbed it somehow. 😉
    I would like to re-approach the groups and the lessons with this new point of view, and that is why I am here.

I have been reading it every day. And everything that seemed opaque to me before has crystallized. It makes perfect sense now.
