Furthermore, you have no perception or attainment whatsoever even of your own essence. Everything you know about your own essence is nothing more than a series of actions extending from your essence.

Dual Creator
November 2, 2009 — kabbalahthoughts
The Creator wants a Creation that can retain its independence even when it feels the Creator, seemingly producing a “dual Creator”–the first being the Creator Himself, and the second, Creation, operating precisely like the Creator.

Body of the Emanated
November 1, 2009 — kabbalahthoughts
We should also know that the will to receive is what we perceive as the “body” of the emanated, meaning its primary essence, being the vessel to receive His goodness. The second is the Essence of the good that is received, which is His Light, which is eternally extended to the emanation.

Why We Gather
October 30, 2009 — kabbalahthoughts
And this is why we gather here–to establish a society where each of us follows the spirit of bestowing upon the Creator. And to achieve bestowal upon the Creator, we must begin with bestowal upon man, which is called “love of others.”

Rising to the Highest
October 29, 2009 — kabbalahthoughts
Rising from the lowest level inside my Kli to the highest one, I as it were pass through five parts called five worlds. Only the absolutely amorphous Upper light surrounds me. The sensations of concealment and revelation of my partial connection with the Creator – all this is felt within me and is determined by the inner part of me that I have corrected.

Right Perspective
October 28, 2009 — kabbalahthoughts
The only way for us to approach the right perspective of reality is by studying Kabbalah, since it is the only study that deals with the part of reality that humanity has yet to attain. But it is not enough to merely study the text because we are reading about the unknown. We must also direct ourselves to the right vision and be prepared for a truer, and as yet concealed, feeling.

No Love
October 27, 2009 — kabbalahthoughts
There is no love in our world. What we call love is the aspiration for pleasure, or to be fulfilled by pleasure. In other words, corporeal love is one’s attitude to that which gives one pleasure. It is measured by the degree of one’s fulfillment from the source of love.

Melting Pot
October 26, 2009 — kabbalahthoughts
This melting pot gradually builds the condition by which any person who endures, despite the egoistic personal discomfort, will ultimately break through to the spiritual world. There is a lot of internal hard work needed here. But those who take that path begin to feel their inner changes and note how the understanding of their world changes daily. While they might recognize how they are becoming smarter than others, this is only a temporary reward.

Not Born Righteous
October 25, 2009 — kabbalahthoughts
This means that one is not born righteous, for “it does not ask, ‘righteous or wicked.’” This is left to our choice, each according to his labor in Torah and Mitzvot. Accordingly, one is rewarded with cleansing one’s heart, with correcting what he must, according to the root of his soul, and then he is complete.

All Parts of Creation
October 23, 2009 — kabbalahthoughts
In fact, in order to cross the barrier that separates the corporeal world from the spiritual world, we must change our intention from relating to each other hatefully to relating to each other with love. The same rules apply to all parts of Creation, from the lowest element of reality to the highest. It all depends on the perspective of the observer who discovers the rules.
