Thank you!
RickiParticipantSometimes I experience great anxiety before asking questions and participating in lessons. This takes a lot of effort to overcome, and occasionally I feel paralysed. Is this normal? Has anyone else experienced this? Will this eventually change?

However, when I change my purpose from “I am aiming to correct myself” to “I am aiming to help the friends correct themselves and reach the creator” somehow I feel a subtle shift: motivation floods my system and I feel responsible. Despite the contradiction that I am but a face among billions, somehow I feel that you are waiting for me. The motion is like a loving ache, and I think “how could I have procrastinated on such an important journey?!”
I ask nature to help me remember.
RickiParticipantSpreading the wisdom of Kabbalah is related to my private correction because we are all part of one system. I depend of others and others depend on me. Raising awareness about the fundamental principles of perception and encouraging questions about the deeper nature of reality helps to develop humanity and this also myself.

What does it mean to shift from an egoistic perception of reality to a perception based on bestowal?
The egoistic fashion of engagement is a linear one with the intention to receive for one’s own benefit. To shift to a perception based on bestowal, we still work with what we are given by the creator but aim our intention at the others, trying only to receive what is necessary to fulfil the actions/objective of helping the group. Our focus becomes directed toward the well-being and success of the members of the group rather than any personal or logical goals.What does it mean to connect with others? In what desire are we connected?
We connect with others in the group via our point in the heart(s). By revealing the egoistic inclination, we can make discernments and then restrict or annul ourselves (correction?) so that we receive only what is needed to help the group reach for greatness. Reciprocal dynamics between people can be a sign of connection.December 1, 2022 at 11:14 pm EST in reply to: Reflect: Share something from the lesson that blew your mind, or even just gave you a new perspective. #305494RickiParticipantI understand better what opportunity there really is to bestow
