Carlos,
We have gone through the translation in the last few years and cleaned it up a bit.
No problems either way.
Thanks for your feedback,
Seth@KabUDaniela,
The Vav without a vowel has a V sound. With a vowel it can take on several other sounds, like you said, for example, “ew” or “oh”.
Seth@KabuLoyda,
Don’t take anything practically yet if it’s not clear.
Read what I wrote above about the olympic ice skater and realize that what you entered is a million times greater than that.
So don’t think that you read some paragraph and now you will just go do it. You need to read a lot, experience a lot and slowly it will work on you and you will understand what it means.
Live a normal life with family, work, health, neighbors, etc.
The gist of what it is talking about is that thoughts and desires pass from person to person. And you are cultivating a spiritual worldview and you want to care for it and not be all day confused by CNN and BBC and Beyonce and the Yankees and Levi and Walmart and everything else except for the meaning of life.
Seth@KabULoyda,
OK, so first of all, imagine you are a child and you went to see the Olympic figure skaters and you decide at that moment that that is what you want to do with your life.
Mom agrees and the next day you go and buy skates and sign up for lessons.
Now first day on the ice, do you look like the olympians? How about after one week? One year…five years?
So you read something, but first of all you need to understand what it means and second of all, you need to understand that you can’t just jump on the ice and execute it. When you do what the book says, you will already be in a good life, in contact with the Creator and harmoniously integrated with the world around you.What the text is telling you is that we are completely influenced by the world around us, the food advertising, the political advertising, the news, the movies, the music, the fashion around us, it all influences who we are and how we think, feel and behave.
In short, you came to a place where people are studying an authentic method of spiritual attainment passed from teacher to student for 1000s of years. In this environment is where you can talk a lot about what we are studying, but bringing this outside, no one will understand what you are talking about, you can’t go into the supermarket and start saying that there is no time and space and everything is love.
You wrote, “only if necessary”, so more or less, that’s most of your day, kids go to school, we take care of them, we go to work, the grocery store, pay the bills, exercise to stay healthy, spend time with our relatives, so all of that is necessary and with the 1 hour of free time that you have, so there deal with your spiritual life.Later, after you have been washed in the wisdom for some time, you will feel how it affects your thoughts and desires and it stays with you as you go to the market and work, etc.
And regarding connecting the wisdom to the outside world, this also will come later, once you integrate the wisdom there will be many opportunities to spread the wisdom in the form of books or videos, songs, poems, sharing links online, there are 1000s of ways to connect more and more people to the good. We’ll get into all of that later.
Good luck, take it slow and with much more nuance and everything will develop in a healthy way,
Seth@KabU
