My desire for my fellow students is to not just gain knowledge but to apply that knowledge. May their hearts continue to grow closer to our Creator and understand that anything else is not satisfying. Yes there may be a temporary satisfaction but ultimate joy is found in aligning our lives with the Creator.
Another thing I pray is that my fellow students will not look upon pain as a bad thing, but realize that there is purpose in pain and it will help in our development. However understanding this aspect will ultimately lead us on the Path of Light. May we all be open to the teachings and allow them to penetrate our hearts as we become one.
I was fascinated by the two different paths: Path of Light or Path of pain. With regards to pain, the lesson clearly explained that suffering occurs in our world as a necessary stage of our development. I call it testing, how do we know if our “faith” or development is bringing us closer to the Creator’s attributes if we are not tested by means of suffering.
“By discovering this cause (of suffering), we are given the opportunity to become consciously involved in our life’s process of development. We can then develop ourselves ahead of the wave of pain and disaster…”
The wisdom o Kabbalah gives me the ability to change my life by inner transformation.
I realize that as the creature, I can draw closer to the Creator as I shed my egoistic nature. My egoistic state is opposite to the upper force, however the good news is that as we change bit by bit we begin to resemble the quality of the Creator.
The forces of good and evil are not truly reality.
I found the information regarding enlightenment quite fascinating. “Enlightenment means that we can see despite anything that appears to us what the real unifying thought is behind it.”
That was the question I had, the same as Lori’s about the quantity of steps and the 600K pieces
Since you have answered the question, I will review what you have said.
Thank you
I bring to mind the scripture that says:
“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.” Romans 8:28
Acquiring a deeper meaning of the way nature and the entirety of the universe will help us to understand our own individual lives and the boundaries that are important which could mean life or death.
There are forces working in this world that we may not see but having that deeper understand of our own life and how these forces impact everything is beneficial to our spiritual development.
