The tendency to immediately defend one’s position by blaming the opposition for any shortcomings and taking every opportunity to spin any situation to gain any short-term benefit for one’s position would at the bare minimum happen less often or better yet cease. People would realize the person with whom they are opposed is part of them. We all want pleasure and seek to avoid pain. Who would continue to knowing harm themselves if they can avoid that pain?

NathanParticipantIf all must be corrected and the strength of the reforming light correlates positively with the increasing connections and individual desires for correction, then as we increase in number, the strength of the reforming light also increases.
July 26, 2022 at 12:24 am EDT 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? #295180NathanParticipantI believe that by working in a group and changing my intention from drawing the light toward myself to wanting my friends to receive the light and striving for a loving connection with them, I draw nearer to the Creator and share in the light from my efforts to bestow on others. In normal english terms, I must seek to love and give to others that which I desire most; it is a requirement to fulfilling the purpose of my life.
July 25, 2022 at 11:36 pm EDT in reply to: Preparation Prompt: In Kabbalah, our primary task is to draw the reforming light, which supplies all we require for spiritual progress. Moreover, it’s said that aiding others accelerates our own spiritual ascent. How does this dynamic operate? What does supporting fellow seekers with a spiritual inclination entail? #295179NathanParticipantAwe inspiring!
July 17, 2022 at 9:07 pm EDT in reply to: Preparation Question: What does it mean to connect with others? In what desire are we connected? #294543NathanParticipantTo embrace and support eachother’s point in the heart that seeks to grow spiritually and take on the intention to bestow similar to the creator.
