Hi mrc,
Yes and no. “Mistakes” aren’t completely our fault. Certainly you can label them “mistakes” since at the time of the decision there was a “correct” action and an “incorrect” action–yet, if there is None Else Besides Him then this was His doing and therefore no “mistake”. However, you could also say that if I would have acted “correctly”–which is truly our goal–then there would have been no “mistake”. Yet, as you mentioned, it’s us revealing our “mistakes” which show us what needs correction. In this way, you could say there is no path of correction without revelation of evil. So what you said is correct, but don’t be confused and think we are the ones making these mistakes, rather, the Creator created us and broke us in order for us ourselves, to consciously put these pieces together.
Thanks,
Chris
Not sure what other Kabbalistic methods are out there, but the authentic wisdom of Kabbalah only serves someone who wants a method of correction to work on them and bring them from reception to bestowal.
I would not try and associate the physical and the spiritual. When you start on that path, it makes it more difficult to internalize. When you go there, it’s hard to come off that path. Instead of emotionally looking for answers, emotionally navigating through the path, you first try and use logic and reason–you start looking for some “image” to make sense of things and it’s simply an obstacle.
