My name is Carina from Canada (Alberta). I started studying Kabbalah 6 months ago and attend the grad classes live whenever I can. I’m joining this class because it was recommended in the Sunday evening session as a great way to get introduced to the fundamental text of TES, gaining a general overview and grasp of the system. I’m thrilled that such a course exists and truly grateful to Gianni for offering it. I’m very interested in studying TES and motivated to participate with you all.
To change the world, the key is to transform ourselves from within by shifting our inner qualities to align more with altruism and connection rather than egoistic desires. Kabbalah teaches that individual spiritual growth through awareness and intention creates a ripple effect that influences all of reality, meaning that by changing our mindset and actions, we can gradually bring positive change to the world. External problems like war, famine, and climate crisis reflect the collective inner state of humanity, so true change begins with each person working on their inner self to match the higher spiritual intention of unity and light.
the Middle East crisis persists because humanity has not addressed the underlying cause: reconciling our egoistic desires with the deeper drive for connection and unity, a task Israel is destined to lead through the ancient wisdom of Kabbalah. External conflicts reflect this inner discord, so peace requires an inner transformation first.
Our intentions shape everything in our daily lives because even when we think we are giving, our inner desire often aims to receive something for ourselves. True giving happens only when the intention is purely to bestow without expecting any personal gain or recognition. When our focus shifts from selfish desires to genuinely caring for others and aligning with higher spiritual intentions, our actions become meaningful and connected to a greater purpose.
I’m never fully satisfied because my ego keeps pushing me to chase more pleasure. Pleasure feels real only when it meets a need, but once that need is met, the pleasure fades and I start wanting something new. True, lasting satisfaction comes from growing beyond myself and finding joy in giving to others, which brings a deeper, endless kind of happiness.
