    From what I understand of the course so far: To change my will to receive into the will to bestow, in order to become more equivalent to the creator.
    I am initially uncomfortable with the 2nd part of the sentence. “in order to become more equivalent to the creator.” This feels like a heresy, vanity, impossible.

    but then I’m thinking about the breath of life, what that actually was when GOD filled Adam with the breath of life, he was imparting him with an eternal soul.  The essence imparted to Adam from GOD must have been a part of GOD.  Since GOD is infinite, a minutiae of HIS essence is in itself infinite.  So therefore it may be possible to achieve equivalence, since the possibility for equivalence was given during the act of creation.

    to fail reaching this equivalence is like the allegory of the guest and feast the instructor mentions in the last video.

    What I want most from the study of Kabbalah is more light.  I don’t think I fully understand what that means yet, but I know it is good.

    Freemasonry and kabbalah are not related according to the Bnei Baruch tradition?  Could someone reach out and expand on this statement from the 2nd video please?

    Hello, I’m Bijan.  I’m an American artist and art teacher working in Tokyo.  6 years in China prior to now, and 2 years teaching in the juvenile correctional system before that.

    The speaker in the kabu video “what happens when we die” on the kabbalahinfo YouTube channel really spoke to me and my experiences.

    I have been interested in kabbalah for a long time but never seriously studied.  I’m excited to change that.
