By connecting with others. The connection between us is the Creator – no a picture or a metaphor of or for the Creator. It IS. And thus by really making and living that connection, we become part of the Creator.
I really connected with the video of the swarm of birds. I always wondered how they (being “dumb” animals) can be in such perfect sync, and we as “smart” people cannot get it right. Now I know, we can also be like that. We just need to stop trying to be so individualistic, and become part of nature – and put the needs of the whole above our personal desires.
I wish to get from theory to practice. The ideas are amazing, but I need to get to the point where I can implement and practice it in such a way that it will actually impact my life on a day to day basis.
If everyone must reach the ultimate goal – of loving your friend as yourself, and being in equivalence of form with the creator – how about people that cannot mentally do this? People with mental disabilities or serious personality disorders or brain damage for instance. I understand that I must only focus on myself and my journey (for now) – but just wondering about Kabbalah’s view on this issue.
