  • Kai,
    We learn that all of reality is filled with endless light.
    But we don’t feel it.
    What do we need in order to feel it?
    A need for it.  A yearning and craving for it.
    Some desires grow in us naturally like the desire for food and sex.  We are just like all of the other animals and these desires arise at their natural time according to many factors.
    Spirituality on the other hand does not develop in the same way.  The original point does awaken in its time but after that, in order to reach the need for the endless fulfillment that we are going to learn about, so what to do?
    We need to develop this need.  This is done by the spiritual society that awakens this desire in us.
    We will learn about this soon.

    Clara,
    We have a lot of confusion about everything.
    There is even a phenomenon where a hostage starts to empathize with their captor who feeds them.  Everything in our world is mixed up.
    Sometimes we give to others but when we give, we are doing it because we receive honor or respect or self worth from that giving, so our act of giving is actually considered reception.
    There are other times when we don’t want to receive due to the feeling of shame associated with receiving, so we don’t receive in order to protect our ego.
    First things first, we have these courses here which help us understand who we are, what system we are in, what are the forces operating on us and how can we relate to them in order to come to a good life for everyone.
    Be patient and go over the materials again and again and you will advance naturally and comfortably.

    John,
    It sounds like you already found your salvation with no complication, no sidesteps and no confusion.
    So what more do you want?

    Vania,
    This is the correct question.
    Think of how many grandparents and great grandparents participated in making you.  How their genes, experiences and traits formed you into who you are.  You didn’t have any control over that.  Yet we feel so free.
    We’ll discover that we are in a closed system and all of our free will is agreeing with the perfect, whole, integral, loving system that we are in.
    This isn’t an answer that can enter the ear, this is felt in the heart after much exertion and time.
    We’ll get there.

    Andreanne,
    Yes, certainly.  Like a new child when she finally recognizes her mom.  Until then, she is more or less unconscious of her mom, she is attached to her, and dependent on her for everything, but then one day, she looks at her mom and smiles and it fills mom with such joy.  But what did the little, helpless infant do, except look up and acknowledge the upper one.

    Regarding your second question, I see you found one of Rav’s articles.  That’s great.  You can google “Laitman blog [any topic]” search for any topic you are interested in.  Rav has published extensively and I’m sure you’ll find wonderful material.

    MK,

    They attained these degrees.  If you go to New York City, and go to Time Square, you will be able to describe what you see, what you smell, what you hear.
    So if you go to the world of Atzilut, you will feel what is there.
    The kabbalists wrote their books to us so that we can follow the steps that they took to reach these things.
    The problem is that we try to use our egoistic minds to guide us to the goal, when we would be much more successful and we would shorten the path if we could take their mind above our own and follow what they tell us.
    We’ll try together.
