Hi Gianni, as I keep reading, trying to understand the structures and forces governing us, I see more and more that it is about feeling all this, rather than grasping it cognitively. And I am getting why working with this actively with others snd for others and together is so important. However, so far all I could find about about the practical work is- teacher, books, group- so the “frame” of the work. But I couldn’t find anything about how to practically DO the work. Are there any resources on that? Or how is it taught or passed on practically? Or is it more like trial and error for the group to find out?
Hi, I’ve got a question about the fear of God. Does fear of God mean the fear of falling back into self love/self- thought while trying to attain the creator? Because thus, all efforts to reach any equality of form would be in vain… and one would basically hit the wall right away and fall back into the animate state?
I am reading „the Kabbalist“ currently, and I am getting itś fictional, but it´ś also very intriguing. I am just wondering… reading this, it seems like sometimes there are also souls coming to this world who start their journey differently to that normal growth process. They seem to have not quite forgotten their spiritual connection like that boy Moshe in the book or exceptionally find their spiritual purpose in very young years like it was depicted to be for Yehuda Ashlag. If that is not completely fictional, how comes that?
Hi, thank you. This is an important answer. Itś how I feel it..and it is moving me a a alot. I am just wondering, if I keep this to a circle of friends, the ten, and then go out into corporeal life and „play the game“ like everyone else… how can I ever become true in this? If I keep all this in my mind, but dońt act accordingly, because no one else does, it may save me from loss or harm or whatever, but wońt it corrupt any efforts my point in the heart makes?
Hi, In spirituality, is there a difference between egoism versus destructiveness? Like „receiving to receive“ versus „harming to receive“? I suppose, both can be formed in feelings, thoughts and actions, but is both on the level of „egoistic desire“ or is there a difference, because whereas egoism can at least be neutral to its environment, destructiveness will essentially cause harm.
Hi Gianni, just starting with the young group, I have got a practical question… how can I distinguish between a psychological effect of the work versus a spiritual effect? For example, when I read in the Zohar, I can perceive it makes a difference. When I take part in a Workshop, it makes a difference. I can sense it‘s about connection, it’s not always the same sensation, so I perceive something is happening there. Since I am working in mental health, I am used to analysing things, group work, self-reflection, all that, and I dare say there is a profound difference if I compare it to spiritual work. But how can I distinguish between what is an effect of feeling. welcome, equal, appreciated due to this open-hearted environment versus true spiritual sensations. Or in case of the Zohar, how can I distinguish between maybe just wanting this sensation, like a placebo, versus simple experiencing it?
