    Hello. Yesterday we were due for a live Q&A, and this was my message to the WhatsApp group, when attempting to learn about Bestowal:

    “As I am still learning, I am not sure if I am on the right track with bestowel, but my mam hurt her back, so I offered to come and help her, which means i will most likely miss the live Q&A (screaming inside) hopefully at some point I’ll get on, but I feel this is the right thing to do.

    On the upside, it made her happy for me to come to her”

    Is this “screaming inside” the desire within me which needs correction, as it seems that this is the will to receive that is still active within my heart? This, though I committed the action, the desire to receive was still present and the action made no real difference within?

    Thank you 🙏

    Is this “screaming inside” the desire within me which needs correction, as it seems that this is the will to receive that is still active within my heart?* My main question 😊

    I have come to the conclusion that I don’t really know what the forces that are working in the world are. Due to the limited perception of my ego, everything has become a question, rather than truly revealed. I understand that everything that I am perceiving comes from within myself. If that is so, then who am I conversing with that is outside of this perception, when in conversation with them? What is this “voice” that I hear speaking to me? What is the person that I am looking at with my limited sense of sight? Can I perceive more of them beyond these sensations? Perhaps absolute altruism is where I find my answers? Instead of being limited to my ego, they sympathise with the entirety of Creation, and begin to see things from a widening perspective?
    It’s an endless stream of questions as I seek…I came to the conclusion that I truly know nothing, apart from what my ego thinks it knows.

    “all worlds and all created beings, except for the Creator, are a single Malchut entity, meaning the root or the original Source of all beings. Malchut eventually fragments into many small parts of itself. The total of the constituent parts of Malchut is known as “Shechina.””

    Is Malchut the same as Adam HaRishon? Is there a relationship between the two? What are these “constituent parts”?

    Thank you 🙏

    Learning of how the ego is the program of our five senses, to the point where we do not know what we are perceiving beyond what is being projected to us. Our block from perceiving abstract Light.

     

    This caused me to wonder at everything I am experiencing. All that there is, is the Creator. What am I actually experiencing? What exactly is the Creator? I have my religious views via my culture and upbringing, but, what is He beyond that? He is the will to bestow, we are the will to receiving. We think ourselves opposite to each other (humanity) and we are not. Only the ego perceives it in this light. Beyond the ego, there is abstract Light. Endless possibilities. This drew me to “who am I?,” “Where am I?,” and “where am I going?” Rather than just reading about it as I did a week or two ago, I have these questions arising within my heart now.

    We want the study of Kabbalah to lead us to the “sixth sense” which is actually an intention, being altruism. Ultimately – absolute altruism. Complete unity with all of humanity.

    Thank you, Seth. Just one more question.

    Is an example of a corrupted kli, and a corrected kli be as follows:

    If I am listening to someone who is talking to me, but decide to speak over then rather than let them finish, is this a corrupted kli due to my desire being to speak rather than listen?

    Would a corrected kli, using the same example, be to listen, be patient, give my time to the other person, instead of putting my own desire to speak first?
