My understanding of kabbalah is to understand the thought of creation and adhere to the Creator. But, I’m having a hard time with a couple of things. First, I feel stuck, which I understand is part of the process. Then my ego also has this conversation about “how great could it really be? Imagine eternity as the same thing. What if it just starts all over again? Wouldn’t that be absolutely terrible having to do this again?”
And… that’s kind of a good point? Maybe I’m just frustrated at the stall and myself. But the idea of this continuing as a cycle over and over depresses me. Am I thinking too far ahead? What should I be focusing on/ doing right now?
The idea of “mine” and ownership would be abolished. Conflict would be lessened in order to work toward common goods and not towards hording for oneself.
In working with a group towards the same goal, many things happen. We start to see the interconnectedness of each other, that we truly share the human condition and see ourselves in the other friend. We build compassion towards each other and share a common goal that is above ourselves. When our friend is down, we raise them. When we are down they raise us, and it’s all for a single advancement to the upper levels and connect with the Creator
Working with the light that reforms can be tricky because of our egoistic nature that wants to use the light for itself. We can strengthen the influence of the light through our environment to include kabbalah texts and finding the proper group.
