What stands out most for me was the feeling of connection to the instructors and other students. Even though I study alone, in my own time, somehow the feeling of being together with no time or space constrainment was so prevalent that I seemed to feel as though the point in my heart was opening, expanding, and joining with the other students as if they were all still in the room.
While waiting for part 2 I have delved into the many books I have purchased, started other courses, and allowed this feeling to permeate in all I do. I am expecting the course to bring me a notch higher on the ladder as I feel and desire it so deeply. It’s almost a frightening feeling, to have finally found a way to learn what has been in my heart for so long.
We are missing the ability to discern the difference between unity and acceptance of social ills in the guise of unity.
No. In nature nothing is held to a higher standard than anything else. Jews may offer an example of unity, but true unity includes everyone. The highest standard would be equality of everyone. Having Jews as the higher standard would only breed more contempt. At the moment Jews do not even include each other in their unity so much needs to be done in the Jewish community before they can claim they are an example of true nature.
What is needed is for the Jews to form more connected hubs. This is where the study of Kabbalah will make a difference, as more people step up to offer a place of unity. We have too few hubs right now and they are not totally connected, each thinking they are doing the right thing, but going in different directions. Kabbalah is needed to infiltrate these hubs and produce more, so we can become connected again. All the people of the world look to Jews, with awe or with hatred, but they all look because deep inside of their hearts is the same spark of connection which turns to a fear of the unknown, a fear of Jews.
