I really appreciated that I could study at my own pace as this allowed me to work around my weekly commitments. I also enjoyed reading through the forums.
be persistent with nurturing the desire to feel/know the upper force, and keep returning to focus on study.
I resonated with Eliyahu’s comment #190545 about organizing one’s life to connect with the correct environment. Attila’s comment #190543 and Margaret’s comment #190648 were also helpful to read and I would have written similar words here.
Thank you everyone for being here<3
It is so beautiful reading the comments here! I feel uplifted and I think this community might be very kind despite us all jostling with our egos.
I hope we can understand each other and build a warm place of mutual connection.
I would say to my fellow students, don’t give up! Even when life gets tough and when it’s hard to find time to study, it’s ok because the most important thing is you nurture the point in the heart.
I have become more aware of my desires and how thoughts follow desire, thoughts can grow or diminish desire. In this way, I have been feeling more in touch with subtleties of emotional awareness and states of perception.
I have realized more deeply that I don’t seem to have any control over my emotions, it’s not my choice or fault to feel any range of emotion.
The most pertinent development this week has been a focusing on what my senses are delivering me, purely. When this state washes over me I experience a form of wordless clarity, at the same time some kind of disconnection from the world I live in, both the physical and social way.
To what perception of reality do we want the study of Kabbalah to lead us?
I want to experience reality as everyone working together, compassionate, considerate and kind to one another. I want to comprehend the meaning, feeling, and perspectives of my friends in a way that I don’t have to guess what their intentions are.Somehow I’ve made it this far in life, despite bullying and rejection, believing that everyone is truly kind and loving at heart. Some recent events in my life have shaken this up: I feel like I’ve lost something, and now my attitude is pessimistic, plus the emptiness is growing larger. How can people ignore suffering?!? I want Kabbalah to show me how this path could possibly lead to a world of harmony.
I understand how the development of a new sense is possible, yet futile to try imagine it. I hope Kabbalah leads us to taste and strengthen this seed or gift.
