Hello,
How are decisions made in a ten? Usually, we discuss the matter together, then vote, and the majority decision prevails. Is this the correct approach?
Hello, I have 2 questions. Thank you in advance.
1. In Shamati 7, he speaks about scrutinizing our feelings in the work and rising above them. My question is: Is this scrutiny and the effort to justify the Creator meant only for feelings that arise within the work in the ten, or should I also relate this way to negative feelings that arise in corporeal life as well?
2. Last Sunday you mentioned that your ten meets 3 times a day, and I’ve heard other groups say the same. I’m in a younger group, so honestly that sounds impossible.
I’m wondering if maybe we’re making the work feel too complicated or heavy.  Would you mind sharing what your meetings actually look like — how long they are, how many friends usually attend, what times you meet, and what you do during them, is it on Zoom? I’m just trying to get a feel for what’s realistically possible.
Hello Gianni
I’m trying to understand whether I’m grasping this correctly…
So what we learn here on this course does not pertain to this world at all. It is not referring to the feelings we experience (eg. shame) or pleasure we receive in corporeal life. Its purpose is solely to prepare us to the spiritual world which is revealed to us after we cross the machsom. Am I correct??
Thank you so much.
On the second video, when you were talking about Bina you gave an example of people becoming vegetarian or monks. My question is can we see all the four phases of light (keter, hochma…) in our corporeal world, in our self, in others behaviour and nature? Or Everything we see in this world is just Malchut, and all the other 3 phase only happened before the creation of this world or the big bang ?
Hello,
How can I better understand spiritual love the way the Creator defines it – Without confusing it with society’s version of love? For instance, society often sees giving something for free as an act of love, which make us resist paying for things like additional membership fees. I feel we may have mixed up true spiritual love with these worldly ideas.
Do you recommend any beginner-friendly books or videos that explain the difference between worldly love and the creator’s love? I truly believe the way the creator love is not the way we love in this world. Thank you
I just want to make sure I’m understanding the concept right. So a Kabbalist lives in two words. What he does in the spiritual world does not affect the corporeal world but just helps him accept what happens in his corporeal life as good and have no resistance to it. Is this correct?
In most religion we establish a relation with the creator so we can somehow influence our corporeal life and emotion. If i can’t do that with kabbalah then what is the purpose of it? There are some religions that teaches not to have resistance to life, just let it happen. Is that what kabbalah also teaches?
