I wonder if I will feel when I am practicing altruism, rather than ego-based action? Or is it easy to deceive oneself in this way, believing we are being altruistic, when we are actually being selfish or ego-driven? How is this related to self-doubt, or the “inner critic” that we hear?
I have realized how much the traditions and content of Kabbalah aligns with many of my deeply held beliefs. and puts them into an understandable context!!!!
To feel a connection with the Creator, always. And to feel the Thought of the Creator as the origin of absolutely everything that surrounds me, and that which is within me.
The first section of the course answered many of the most pressing questions that I have had regarding the meaning of life, and as to what my purpose is, as a human being, living on planet earth. THAT is my biggest and best experience so far; to have such profound questions answered by the wisdom of Kabbalah!!! I am very excited to begin the second section, and to learn as much as possible, to fulfill my purpose.
What most inspired me in the course?
I was most inspired by the similarity between the beliefs that I held, before beginning this course, and that which I have learned throughout this semester. Many thoughts, feelings, and insights that I have had, have been explained in these past five weeks!
What have I learned about myself in the process?
I have learned of my purpose, and that is to reach Equivalence of Form with the (thought of) the Creator. I am beginning to comprehend, as Baal HaSulam states, the root of my soul. This is something that I have been (unknowingly) seeking, for my entire life.
What do I wish for my fellow students in their spiritual development?
I wish for my fellow students to also begin to comprehend the roots of their soul, as I am finally beginning to see in myself. I wish them peace, unconditional love, understanding, and the ability to share the wisdom that we are receiving from these courses, with others.
