Sarah,

If it is your custom, so do it.
We have students from every continent…not Antarctica yet but the other 6.

Dozens of languages, religions and cultures.  Each one can follow their culture. Together we are studying the inner meaning of the Torah which speaks about the spiritual reality and this includes all people from every culture.

zeinab,
Imagine you are arranged into a group of friends who are studying the wisdom of kabbalah with you and your goal is to love them as you love yourself.
And you are excited about it and you think you are doing it.  And then you realize that you are doing it only as much as it is comfortable and convenient for you.  Are you making a place in your heart for them to enter?
Even the one who is lazy and even the one who doesn’t seem to pay attention and whatever you see with your eyes, because after all love of friends does not mean that the friends will love me, but that I will love them and in order to do this we are given more and more opportunities where we are until now incapable of loving and we have the opportunity to love until we fill all of the space between us with our new attitude, a literal change of the heart, an inversion from self love to love of the others, which after all is the quality of the Creator.

Hi Sarah,
You can put it the other way also, with the corrected intention, every act you do in this world will be spiritual.
The point is that moving molecules around in and of itself does not affect spirituality.
Our world is like an imprint, the kabbalists call it a seal, like a king would press his ring into a wax seal.
But moving the wax does not change the ring.
We don’t effect spirituality by pushing and pulling things around with our hands and feet.
We effect spirituality by a development in our heart.
Nevertheless there are customs and things that we do in this world and these can be done with no problem.
In the books of the sages, mitzvot are corrections performed on the 613 desires and the upper light (Torah) inverts the desire to be for the sake of the Creator.

Tamas,
First we are hoping that everything will work out for you in the best way and you will be healthy and everything will be good.
What we are discovering is that the system of nature, we call the force of the Creator is developing us towards the good.
All of the harsh separation and suffering we feel is not the the Good of the Creator, but is a measure of our separation from it.
When you are on the other side of this, you will be able to look back and understand why it all happened exactly the way it is happening.
Now, in your current state, you are receiving all kinds of new emotional impressions.
As much as you can stay connected to the sources and also manage your normal life with food, exercise, family, work.  Arrange your regular life in a normal, comfortable way and pass through these changes in your inner life, speak to the Creator all the time, when you are getting food, when you have time during the day.  Ask about whatever you want, most important is not to lose the connection.
We are going through a historic shift in our generation and we are casting aside many useless ideas and habits that tie us to corporeal suffering. Any time that we want to build a desire for bestowal, what happens?
Our bodies that take nourishment from egoistic reception resist, fight against it.
These are normal processes and they build our inner world, our new sensory organs that will later perceive things above the body.
Have patience and good luck with everything,
Seth@KabU

Ptr,
The kabbalists ask this question and we will study it together later.
Of course it is impossible that something imperfect can extend out of the perfect Creator.  So that imperfection is the measure of our distance from the perfect Creator.  And by this distance, there is space for our existence, otherwise we are as a spark inside the sun, without any existence of our own.  And from our efforts, we can cross this distance and build our inner sensations to come to consciously feel the Creator, to equalize ourselves with Him.
