    Hi Gianni, I have been wondering how we perceive the material we are reading. It seems like the revelation of the importance is not so much in the mind, but even that happens between us, in the ten. Or at least, when reading alone in the heart. Can it be like that?

    Now, when a Kabbalist or a advanced student of Kabbalah is reading texts like in the Zohar, is it that the „sixth sense“, like that „Kabbalistic perception“ he is reading the words with, that gives meaning to them? To me reading this book is amazing, but of course, being just a beginner, it is like reading GPS coordinates, but not knowing what a GPS is. Itś a bit like pretending to read-  I dońt mind, really, but I am wondering if that is how it works? So, all the descriptions about the upper worlds and its mechanisms need to be perceived with these other senses to make real sense , to navigate us through the unknown? And then, is it easier to read among the ten, because through that unity, that center of connection, these senses are become clearer. Or does this not matter? Does any of this make sense or is it a completely different mechanism that we need to develop?

    Thank you so much, Gianni. Then, does  that mean, there is some  reason in living in those meatsuits after all? So, it is not without purpose, it just doesńt really matter how the body/mind/heart trias has been assembled?

    Hi Gianni, since you mentioned that analogy with the “meat suit” I kept wondering and wondering, how I can integrate that picture, while looking at all the pain people go through, I am wondering if truly nothing in this pain people experience has  a purpose. And then, why it nontheless has to be. I get why it is called the path of suffering. But I don’t understand why it has to be like that, if it does not even have any relevance for our development… or maybe just a minimum , for even the path of suffering still is a path of development. I suppose this question has been asked a million times before… but how can I be true with that? I could pretend not to feel any pain or become negligent towards the struggles people tell me about, thinking, this is just the meat suits going through it, and once I am dead, I won’t remember anyways… my brain will be gone and so will the pain. But it doesn’t work like that… this illusion we are caught in, seems too real to pretend, it seems. I have tried to just split it… two different things… corporeal versus spiritual… but the question remains … how to deal with the pains of the meat suits, physically  and emotionally, correctly?

    Thank you so much, Gianni, for your answers, and this beautiful clip, this is so helpful! I feel so much has clarified, just it opened up one last question…I am wondering if a Kabbalistic song can actually come from one single individual  (if yes, probably only someone who really feels that connection from deep within) , or if essentially it is carried by what would be felt in the center of a ten, carried by the love that resides in the connection and nullification of the many? Expressed differently, does the song “get” its power through the intention with which it is played or listened to, or does it “have” a power (I don’t know if power is the right word… but even though there were all the doubts about the purpose of songs expressed in the clip, I feel , the Kabbalistic songs to be like a power plant for connection). And finally, I wonder if  the words used in a song can actually express the ‘inner moo’  or will rather hinder us from getting there, as the mind will relate them to memories from corporeal life… thus, can we listen to these thongs innocently like children (which is what I do most of the time), or do we have to form our intention first?

    Hi Gianni, there is just one more question adding to this: what is the essence of a piece of Kabbalistic music, say, you would want to write one. I understand how the “classics” came into being. But there are a lot of beautiful pieces on soundcloud.  Now, what is the essence of composing them? Doing it with friends? Trying to feel the purpose of love, connection and unity? Raising a prayer?

    I understand with other pieces of music, artists express themselves and their connection to this world including all the inner states. But what about Kabbalistic music?

    Hi, we have been studying about the meaning of music in our ten… now, this was really a beautiful experience, because music can touch the point in the heart very directly, it seems. In Melodies of the upper World Part 1, it was described,  how the perception of music changes as you develop. So, it was said,  a piece may seem sad if you hear it with most peoples’ point of perception, i.e. feeling only lack/deficiency of the vessel , whereas a Kabbalist, who is adhered to the upper force, might only feel excitement. Then I really started to wonder, how our layers of existence intertwine.What is the connection between our point in the heart with the body/mind/heart trias we run our lives with? Is the life we lead anything more than just a basic corporeal programme needed to start the spiritual programme? Does it actually have any spiritual relevance? Or could we just have ANY heart/mind/body trias to go with, ANY random life story, ANY set of experiences in life-good or bad-and it doesn’t matter at all, because we will leave it behind when we die anyways? Currently it feels to me that the set of  heart/mind body we receive when we are born is just like a functional suit designed for us to experience things in a certain way and grow through through the given experience. Could it be like this?
