Freedom is choosing the path of pain or the path of light, from there the Creator (Light) breaks through and we are activated. From there we begin the ascent up the ladder, we are not able to do any of this unless the Creator opens the path and carries us through it.

Can you explain what a Partzuf is?
November 5, 2023 at 7:58 am EST in reply to: Preparation Question: Try to imagine the sensation behind the statement “There is None Else Besides Him.” How can I feel that the entire reality is the action of the Creator? #334230maria santosParticipantI feel it would be hard to describe how that feels, as there are probably no words for it that even come close to describing. I would describe it as a child who wakes up from a nightmare and runs to their mother and finds comfort, safety, love, peace and knowing that all is good and they feel one with her.
maria santosParticipantWhat most inspired me in the course?
The thought, as the song goes, that the Creator has the whole world in his hand. Although I might not understand why everything happens, I can be confident that it is ONLY in his hands and that all is for our good.
What have I learned about myself in the process?That I need to look at all sides, and see that the “bad” in our world is for our good, it is for our learning, it is a teaching moment. We can either learn from it, or we can continue down the same path and have to deal with a larger teaching moment, ie the path of suffering. Knowledge is not the answer, the answer lies in the heart.
What do I wish for my fellow students in their spiritual development?I wish the same thing I wish for the whole human race, that we all choose the path of light and not the path of suffering. That we see we are all one soul, and that we break through the barrier and join the light and ascend the 125 degrees.
October 29, 2023 at 12:22 pm EDT in reply to: Preparation Question: How can we get in touch with the upper force and act with it mutually? #333808maria santosParticipantI think as with any relationship you have to yearn to be in a relationship, to get in contact. You have to open yourself and listen, try to understand them, and connect on things that you have in common. With upper force the point in the heart is the start, but then through our yearning to wanting to be with that force and learning through Kabbalah how to communicate and connect, and learn what it is and trying to be/share its same qualities.
maria santosParticipantIn these seeming troubling times, I wish for all of us to realize we are one. Any harm we do, we do to ourselves, any good we do, we do to ourselves. Let’s remember that we can be pulled down the path of pain or the path of light. Let’s come together by having the collective intention of choosing light, by looking beyond the noise and feeling what it is the Creator is trying to tell us.
