Hi am Verena, I would really like to know how to read these texts, and how they are being referred to. Thanks a lot for the opportunity to get an insight.
August 30, 2024 at 5:04 pm EDT in reply to: How can we live our life (our current incarnation) to the fullest? #386012VerenaParticipantBy allowing the desire to change from seeking pleasure to connecting more to the light, by allowing altruism take over, by allowing  us to be changed from merely wanting to receive for egoistic reasons to receiving for atruistic reasons… for we cannot change our nature, which embodies the will to receive… but we can use it for the good… and then itś all about deciding to want to grow and then choosing to find an environment to grow, connecting with others who would like to grow to, and through the guidance of a teacher, who has travellef further on this path than his students.

August 30, 2024 at 5:02 pm EDT in reply to: Do you ever feel like reality is the product of your own perception? #386011VerenaParticipantThatÅ› a very good question, and yes, most of the time… the way I look at things, thoughts I allow, attitudes, opinions I raise… they form a picture in my mind, and while this is already pre-formed,  my mind will preferably choose to perceive what it believes should be there, like selective attention, maybe even self-fullfilling own prophecies. I see and perceive what I think it must be like… but maybe there would have been other options; other views to take… but I cannot see them, because I am not prepared to allow them. And then; reality as a human being seems definitely like that black blocks anyways, and thinking that there are around 8 billion pre – programmed little boxes scattling along this planet, thinking they know the truth… well, itÅ› putting things into a new perspective.
August 30, 2024 at 4:55 pm EDT in reply to: Where exactly is your free will? Can you identify where it is real and where it is an illusion? #386010VerenaParticipantWith all that has been given to us, or that we have been deprived from, we have lots of predetermiend factors – based on our ancestral genes, upbringing, childhood environment. And all this may already predetermine how we feel or think about things. Yet, we have the chance, the free will, to make a decision to move on, once we understand we can. And we can decide to want to grow, and search for an environment that can help us to grow – books , friends, teachers.
August 30, 2024 at 4:13 pm EDT in reply to: What have you discovered about Kabbalah that was new to you? #385992VerenaParticipantWell, itÅ› basically all new… but so far in this course, the understanding of prayer was very helpful, also starting to understand about the middle line,…and about the fact that the creater is unchangeably good, and that he means to fulfill the creature, that is humanity as a whole, and all other of his creation, with utmost pleasure. Also the fact that. we are all feeling disconnected and as single individuals , but are still part of „one“ creature… and therefore, we are all connected (whether we wish so or not) – thatÅ› all very strong impressions and images.
August 30, 2024 at 4:03 pm EDT in reply to: What is the greatest thing I wish to achieve through studying the Wisdom of Kabbalah? #385990VerenaParticipantI would wish to gain a spiritual foundation and to share this with others, to connect with humans that share this intention.
