I would like to feel the light more and know that I am on the right path. Learning more specifics on how to apply Kabbalah and techniques I can use to feel that, or know, that I am progressing.
Wow, this week for me was mind blowing, eye opening, light flooding my heart. I know we were only supposed to read page 83 on Peace in the World, but I just couldn’t stop reading and read the whole chapter. What insight/wisdom was contained in that reading. That along with the video’s just opened my eyes to the realty of peace and the futility of the way we, as creatures, have been trying to achieve it.
For many weeks maybe months I have not been able to see any light in the current state of our world, and now I feel like the Creator has given me a little light on what I perceived as negative/bad and how He can bring Light to it, how His plans for us will be done, whether by Light or pain.
What inspired me was the connection to the teachings, some of them even touching back on things that I recalled as a child thinking. The thought that there was this ancient system that taught things that had come to me as a child, and that now I have come to and been able to feel the creator once more. For many years I denied the existence of the creator, after as a child and young adult, having felt him so close to me and being at ease that he was in charge and all would work out as it should and there was nothing I could do to change things. As I grew older and life happened I, like the Kabbalah teaches, felt He had abandoned me.
What I have learned about myself is that the anger that I always felt inside of me when I would start to pursue any type of spirituality including Kabbalah is my ego.
I wish my fellow students in moments of darkness, that the Light shines through quickly so that we all remain on the path of connection.
I as well got goose bumps and emotional. It makes me wonder why we don’t smile more at one another, it feels so good and like we are connected? Instead we yell and curse at each other, or ignore each other which does not make us feel good and nor a part of something bigger than us?
Sometimes I think the issue with loving your neighbor as yourself, is that it appears so many people do not love themselves. If they would they would not do such destructive things to themselves, their families and even friends. My father always told me look at how a person treats their mother, and that is how they will treat you. My question then, is has egoism actually killed love for ourselves?
