ParticipantWe like to solve mysteries, I think it is in our nature to want to know/feel something that we know is there but just out of reach

ParticipantI hope to attain the Light. I hope to awaken the point in the heart and have the Creator grant me the Masach, so He can help me climb out of the dream and into realty and adhesion with Him.
December 31, 2023 at 6:19 am EST in reply to: Preparation Question: Our entire work in Kabbalah is only to attract the light that reforms. By this we receive everything we need for our advancement. Furthermore, I’m told that if I will help the others, I will advance myself even more towards spirituality. How does this work? What does it mean to help the others, those with the point in the heart, on the spiritual path? #338335maria santos
ParticipantFrom my understanding the 10 our like the sefirot, like they say there is strength in numbers. By working with others who have the same desire, that makes the desire stronger to attract the light. It is almost like the scene in Harry Potter when Dumbldore dies. First one person pulls out their wand and it has a small light (desire to banish the darkness), then another and another, and soon the whole sky is lighted and the darkness is overcome. The 10 also ensure that we stay on the correct path and do not stray unintentionally.

ParticipantWe lack so we can learn to value and pursue of our own free will.
December 25, 2023 at 5:38 am EST in reply to: Preparation Prompt: Considering our journey thus far, how can we fortify our connection with the illuminating force? How do we amplify its transformative influence? #337945maria santos
ParticipantWe need the point in the heart to awaken, and then we need to lift MAN so that the Creator will lead us to a teacher and an authentic way to study Kabbalah.
December 17, 2023 at 6:21 am EST in reply to: Preparation Prompt: What does transitioning from a self-centered perception of reality to one grounded in altruism entail? #337240maria santos
ParticipantTo me it means, seeing beyond our current reality which is not real or only partially accurate and shifting our thoughts from how can I get something out of this or how do I minimize the pain in a situation, and feeling that everything we experience is from the Creator and can only be good because it only bestows good. Of course truly shifting requires the Creator, but we must change our intention.
