Hi Gil! I just finished the lesson on Black and White, and I was wondering if we should view ourselves as the light when bestowing to the friend (I.e.. we take the form of their desire by understanding their restriction in order to fulfill their desire, which was Created by the Creator) and as the letters when the friends are bestowing to us (I.e. we restrict ourselves from asking to receive for our own pleasure, to receive instead innbalance with what Creator/friends wish to bestow, thus reflecting them)? In essence Torah is the friends, mitzvot is my bestowal to their desires, and Creator is the love and faith required to do this work selflessly?
Luthien KennedyParticipantMy name is Luthien, and I am an author, artist, and constant student of life. I have been studying Kabbalah for five years, though I have been on the spiritual path, studying various religions, philosophy, psychology, and generally trying to grasp my place in creation for as long as I can remember. I am eager to learn Hebrew, to better understand the roots and branches and deepen my relationship with the Creator and the world.
If you are young on this path, my advice would be to always try to look at things in the opposite way of what your own personal desires tell you. Creator, whatever S/He is, resides in the space between what you feel as you and everything else in existence. May your journey be steady and true and full of everything you need in order to come to feel all the love the universe has to give you. My heart is already yours. L’chaim❤
