@Zih Vil wisdom is not intellectualism. There are plenty of well educated intellectuals who have no wisdom. Wisdom must be a gift from god since it seems so few have it lol. It’s probably more accurately described as the combination of knowledge, experience and intuition (which comes from god) combined and then applied. Because of this a wise man trusts himself and has the ability to navigate terrains and circumstances he has never been in before. An intellectual will rely solely on their books and school teachers and in my opinion likely pay less attention to something that comes from within. As far as your theory that all of this is about hard work. Yes but that’s not the entire message of the tree of life and Kabbalah. They wouldn’t create an entire mysticism/religion if the message was simply, work hard. Hard work is required but each path is basically different archetypes of the collective. And each archetype can be experienced at different times and life stages, sometimes simultaneously. Another thing, this is something everyone is experiencing whether they know it or not. People who are drawn to the occult or mysteries will perhaps recognize where they are on the tree. But everyone is on the tree. An enlightened being is an enlightened being whether they know it or not. And lastly magic is very real, and it’s core it’s simply consciousness imposing it’s will on reality. It does not require special rituals. It’s a mental work and as you said hard work comes into play; applying a discipline will amplify the ability of the user of magic. So yes you are right hard work is key. But I feel that’s an oversimplification, there are many more aspects to life. Sometime people have to work less hard

@@VisitorOf22 to be fair those are just translations themselves. Though these are the accepted translation even within the Jewish community. Chochmah and Da’at can be translated in different ways depending on the concept you’re using them to explain. So while he could be telling truth he is rsacrificing his own authenticity by not even saying that is the general translation.

no. nobody in their right mind would consider chokmah as knowledge and daath as nothing but abyss. daath is very much knowledge and chokmah is very much wisdom. I dare you to find another source that classifies this different, i guarantee you cant find one this threw me off too. the other big thing that threw me up on this guy is that he says hes made it to kether, past daath, etc etc. though really in order to have this accomplished is to know the tree and its symbols, colors, representations like you know your abcs. this guy sounds like he took quick notes and presented them as fast. i wouldnt trust this guy

Pathwork implies a goal. I prefer the idea that God is in all of us, so ‘taking the Path’ should entail recognizing the presence of God within, and fine-tuning expression of God in our life.
@alejandromolina564510 ай бұрын
You need that goal in order to identify and experience that part of the divine. Otherwise, it is impossible to experience the totality of God. Our small human minds make that impossible, so we need to travel those paths individually.

Well no - I'm everything, but also separate individual being. Just like my body consists of cells. The condition of these cells determines how the body will work. Small is needed for the big. Also I don't think Malkuth is an illusion. Matter is needed for non material planes to exist - there is a reason it's at the base and everything in it mirrors higher planes.
@chuckjones91594 ай бұрын
I have tried to make that point to so many in the past about matter existing at all planes. Its just a finer type. I also agree that Malkuth is not an illusion. It is our battleground, the place we are tested. I like to explain the tree to new people by tying it in with dreaming though and I can see how some would think this meant it was not real. I tell them the Absolute, the Unmanifest, is sleeping and has "dreamed" Manifestation. IT seeks to emerge from within its creation. This lets me tie in how the practice of lucid dreaming came about and that all of the foundational practices are based on what Seers have witnessed within Life Manifest.

Conjecture is all that western esotericism can claim about Kabbalah. Guf is not the physical body. It is the body of the partzuf. Neshama, Ruach, Yechida, etc are not what you say they are. They are the lights of the Soul. You learn about them in Pticha. Interesting stuff
