1. What most inspired me in the course?
what most inspired me in the course is the possibility of uniting with the creator; the idea of an equivalence of form. Also, I have understood that Loving my neighbor is beyond a mere knowledge of the concept but a method. Learning this method will supplement for the 613 mitzvot which I shall encounter on the path. Also, I’ve been able to comprehend the stages to the path of correction; equivalence of form.
2. What have I learned about myself in the process?
As far as this course is concerned, I’ve realized that my correction is contagious. The more I correct myself as an individual, the more the whole is corrected. Thus, Loving my neighbor is perfectly equal as loving myself. I used to see myself as a separate entity from the “Adam haRishon “ but now, I feel more inclusive. Baruch HaShem!3. What do I wish for my fellow students in their spiritual development?
I wish them strength and Willpower to walk this path! I know how my life has changed through Kabbalah and I’m not going to say that I’m enjoying it egotistically. Nevertheless, I believe that the creator has Great plans for anyone who has found Kabbalah! God bless us all!
I believe that my role is to allow myself to be filled with Love from the upper force which allows for equivalence of form or equality with the creator.
Can the creation of this environment for this spiritual ascent be the role of religion in regards to this path?
Viewing reality from the perspective of the Creator is by changing ourselves to accept all that he has to give which is “Good”. We perceive life as Evil because of our egoistical desires which are self gratifying. Thus, even when the Will of the Creator for me is Good and always Good, I will perceive it as Evil because it goes contrary to my Will! which is also sin to the Creator This is why there needs to be an equivalence of form towards Lishma!
I have an urge; a yearning within my soul to know The creator. I know that this world is not all that there is and I’ve seen the fleeting vanity of all that it brings. Therefore, a quest for spirituality is stirred within me which I know and I believe can only be attained through Kabbalah!
