This course and all that I’ve learned so far in Kabbalah, fulfills my insatiable drive for spiritual attainment. I appreciate greatly this method of conscious learning about the creator and creation, as it gives me supporting tools that also provide personal meaning.
Your question makes one ponder on the beginning of our lives here. I would say for myself that I started out, not remembering prior existence but feeling a strong unity and a very strong love for life, nature, and people. Over time and after being repeatedly confronted with disappointments, the heart may gradually close and build mechanisms of self protection. Unfortunately we hurt, build an ego, and hurt others as a result. If we are able to awaken, make a conscious decision that we no longer want to hurt our loved ones, that acting out of emotional or egoistic motivations hurts others, we realize and desire to develop altruism, we also make a conscious decision that we need help to grow and discover a connection with our creator, and seek the means and supporting tools to grow the point in our hearts.
Hello friends, this courses’ overview seems really quite fascinating! I hope to better understand the matrix we abide in for the time being and our reason for being here. I hope to productively maximize this time on earth since we came here for a reason, figure it out and help each other graduate!
I have read comments from friends with a similar concern. We feel privileged with the growth opportunity we have here, and wish the same for our loved ones, including those cherished ones who have passed. Except that I’ve also come across some Kabbalistic theories that reveal that growth happens mostly through our efforts on this plane.
