  • Kyler,
    When a person advances, and spiritual light shines, a sign that he is advancing is that he sees his own nature more and more.  Meaning how distant he is from bestowal.
    He sees from day to day how he is becoming worse and he doesn’t see an end to it, he doesn’t see that he is advancing.
    Calm down.  Search in the writings, it takes time, but all of these states are written about a lot in the articles of RABASH.
    This distancing is not distancing.  Now you are seeing the truth, our true nature which is a will to receive.  This was always our nature, the thing is that now you see it a little bit.  Upon this that the Creator reveals comes the reforming light to correct it.  About this Baal HaSulam wrote, you shall place your eyes on them and they will turn into a pile of bones.
    Make a simple framework for yourself of when you read the material, when you have your KabU lessons.  Hold onto the framework through all of the ups and down and you will start to feel how day to day you are advancing.

    Seraphim,
    There is the matter of perception of reality and the inner structure of reality which you did not mention at all, the upper spiritual structure, etc. It seems our approaches towards the goal of the connection of all of humanity in good loving connection are different approaches and that is ok.
    Based on your replies in this forum, I don’t think you will find what you are looking for in Bnei Baruch.  Coming to our first semester and criticizing the kabbalist and our method is not suitable.  You don’t understand yet what you found.   You can do whatever you want in your life, you can come and learn, the door is open, but to come into our house and to start to tell us what is wrong with us with all of the ‘nice’ names you applied, this does not belong.  If you are not interested in what we are engaging in, then you are free to go.  It sounds like you are looking for a different kind of organization.

    We are studying the science of the upper worlds.  We are not touching religions.  We accept anyone from any religion. A great kabbalist can still carry out all the religious customs of his people whichever people he is from.  There is no conflict in that.

    In your very brief encounter with Bnei Baruch maybe you’ve missed our last almost 40 years of dissemination to the entire world, to every continent to every people.  Rav Laitman tirelessly travelled the world speaking to all kinds of leaders and common people, etc in Asia, Europe, South America, North America, etc.. before the pandemic we did a virtual convention with friends from all over Africa too who are studying with us from many different religions.

    You can find thousands of clips and articles if you are interested in discovering what is going on here, here are a few to begin.
    And I’m asking you that if you want to study the authentic wisdom according to what we received from the RABASH through our teacher, then carry on with us.  If not, find the place that is suitable for you and stop with your criticisms on the forum where honest students are looking to methodically approach the wisdom of the kabbalists.
    We are used to people misunderstanding us and even going against us, look at the history of kabbalists, this has always happened for 1000s of years.

    Kabbalah And Sufism—Branches Of A Single Teaching

    Seraphim,
    Rabash uses an allegory about carrying the bag of famous person.  Suppose a great kabbalist came to town and you met him at the airport.  You would run to carry his bag, and if he tried to pay you, you would say, no, no, I don’t need to be paid, to carry your bag, to do something for you is my reward.
    We see there that serving a great person is reward, the work is the reward.
    So we see that it is not swimming or eating or even carrying heavy bags that we are concerned with, but our attitude towards the Giver.
    This special attitude is called a special light from above as a result of many operations below,  that comes and corrects our will to receive at first say 10% as in your example, until we have corrected all of our will to receive, which means piece by piece, absorbing more of the world into myself until I include all the world in my own heart and to justify (l’hatzdik…related to Tzadik) the Creator.

    Eizabeth,
    Everything is part of the picture, all the left and all the right.
    There are two matters here, one is the purpose of creation, which is to create a creature and fill it with delight.
    And prior to that is the correction of creation, where we correct our vessels to feel pleasure in bestowal instead of in reception.  Of course we will always receive and remain as receivers, after all the only creation that the Creator made is a will to receive, so we will remain receiving, but our work is to correct the intention from receiving in order to receive to receiving in order to bestow.

    So little by little, step by step a new light shines for us and illuminates some darkness and we make a correction on it and then again a new light shines and illuminates some darkness and we make a correction.  There are many many emotional discernments along the way and much is sorted in the mind.

    The first advice that I would give you hear is to begin to make a line and below the line is your animal life, like all animals, this includes food, family, work, bills, etc.  We need to manage our life like normal people (if there is such a thing in this upside down world), but we don’t try to love the person we are making a business deal with and they end up with all the money and we end up with $0.
    We make that line and above that line is where we are learning about the wisdom of kabbalah and soon we will start to practice what we learn with the friends that we are studying with.  Under that line we are not kidding ourselves that the world is ready to accept “love your neighbor as yourself” and we are getting kicked around from here to there trying to implement what we learn out on the street.
    And then later slowly slowly we will see how even the animate and vegetative and inanimate all become included in the spiritual and everything rises with the human.
    This is all in front of us.
    Step by step, slowly slowly,
    Seth@KabU

    Ed,
    No problem.
    It’s not the wise who attains.
    Slow and steady and we will all get there.

    Rachel,
    Everything that takes place in that book takes place inside of one person.  You will be very confused if you relate everything to the Bible.
    Let’s try as much as we can to learn the fundamentals that we received from the kabbalists and then when we open the Bible we will understand emotionally all of these operations and see how it all takes place in our inner world.

    Of course when you sin it is the Creator who made you sin, there is no righteous who doesn’t sin.
    As you will read in the next answer below, everything is built by two opposite forces (which all come from Him, His singular force).
