Wow ! That is paradoxical, mysterious and intreaguing – and I appreciate it as the best road-map you can give,     Thanks Gianni ! What you say makes it OK that I have no idea what is in store – but I do know that it really excites my curiosity.

This is a follow-up to the question I accidentally put in the Preparation section. Apologies.
It was clear from your answer (for which gratitude), that my question came from my level of awareness which is only of THIS world. Actually, very enlightening for me, thank you.
My question is, personal to a degree – are you, Gianni, able to sit in that aeroplane & look down on the corporeal world from above it? I suppose I m asking whether, as we continue, we will be able to get above that line ? I ‘m guessing it isn’t an inevitable progress ? What may support us in our studies/experiments, so we achieve this?

Apologies , it was accidental that my Q got into the wrong box. You found it anyway – which feels a nice confirmation , how come the connection WAS made?
So my question came from where I am now, entirely in this world. True, thanks!

In the RELATED video with Rav Leitman answering Questions about who am I & Does G_D exist, he says that the body is just meat and not worth bothering about.
I m wondering if this isnt worth questioning. I agree that, once a person is dead, then the body behaves like meat, & rots (gross ). But, while we are alive, I know from experience that it has its own subtle, non-verbal intelligence.
We pick up many messages with our 5 senses, some of which give us understandings way beyond the obvious. Things like tuning in to what is going to happen, sensing in advance what someone else’s motives may be. I can allow my senses to behave as antennae which can pick up messages from outside of myself. Even my sense of the sacred seems to be held by physical sensitivity, in some way .
I m wondering what you can tell me about this, and if our senses can, then, inform us of the Spirit?

Part of me is very curious as to what its going to be like, and another part of me is aware that I often want to run away when things are challenging. I m hoping I ll be able to cope!

How do we amplify its transformative influence? #335412SarahParticipantI really cant say. I haven’t got any practical experience of the Light that reforms, and don’t know what it is.   Is it the Endless Light of Ein Sof – which is beyond our limited understanding ?
