    Yes

    Verena,
    Imagine that you are holding your child in the grocery store.  On the one hand you are holding and comforting your child and on the other hand, you are navigating the isles, thinking about dinner tonight, having memories of different things as you look at all of the items on the shelf.
    It’s like two systems.
    So the kabbalist is in this world and her heart stays connected to another system of love and connection.
    Of course there is confusion.  It’s like landing in another country where you don’t speak the language, of course things will be confusing until you stabilize yourself there and get acquainted and accustom to how things work there.
    Regarding separation and loneliness, we need to receive powers from group of friends, to integrate with them, to constantly help each other raise the importance of the sublime goal which we are working towards and to uplift the spirits in the group.
    Step by step, you are moving in the right direction.
    Bookmark the reading material that inspires you the most and return to that again and again in different states.
    Everything will work out.

    Carly,
    There is your personal correction and there is the general correction.
    As you correct yourself, that part of you that exists in everyone else is also corrected.
    Everyone will need to come to this, but in a different way.  For example, think of all of the technological innovation and how much mining for lithium and cobalt and how many processes and how many years went into making the cell phone and today, a 5 year old can pick it up and use it, it is all prepared for him.
    Similarly, the others will need to engage on some level, but you are part of the pioneers who are preparing everything for them spiritually.

    Kirstin,
    All of this originated in the thought of creation.  The Creator desired to create a creature and fill it with endless fulfillment.
    From the side of the Creator, that is it, there is no distance between thought and completion of the action.  In spirituality, there is no time, space and motion.
    All of the changes are from the side of creation, from the side of the kli (vessel).
    We have an expression in the wisdom of kabbalah, there is no light without a kli.
    But of course there is light, the whole of reality is filled with His simple light.  What it means is that there is nothing to perceive, literally no reality unless we are perceiving it.  Besides our perception, our limited perception which is only perceiving a tiny, tiny, tiny piece of the whole, beside our perception inside our vessels of perception, there is only endless Light of the Creator.

    Now as we study the spiritual systems and stabalize our new perception inside of us, we discover many processes and we learn them one by one.  While someone may meet Kirstin on the street and say hello to Kirstin, but inside of Kirstin there are many systems, there is the respitory system, the lymphatic system, the circulatory system, the muscular system and many more and they are all doing different jobs and all working in harmony.
    You also need to see the different mechanics of the system to understand your question.
    If we don’t have a desire to receive, then we cannot fulfill the purpose of creation.
    If the car doesn’t have gas, it cannot run, so the car needs an explosion to make the pistons turn.  But if the explosion is not controlled the entire car will blow up.  So yes we need and explosion, but only in the right place at the right time and under the right conditions and everything around the explosion must be perfect as well.
    So we must receive in order to fulfill the purpose of creation, which is to receive endlessly from the Creator,however receiving makes us 100% opposite from the Creator and makes us as far from Him as east is from west.
    So there is a correction on the creation that the vessel will not receive unless it receives with an intention to not receive for itself, which makes it 100% opposite to the Creator, but only to receive because the Creator wants to give, so on the level of the intention, the receiving is actually bestowing.

    Demilew,
    Every desire of our heart is called a prayer.
    Every desire of our heart is for the sake of self reception.
    A true prayer from the bottom of the heart comes when a person finally reaches a state where he needs to escape from this slavery and enter into something whole, complete, fulfilling, eternal, and not in his small, limited, selfish ego.
