Hebrew translation:
Tikkun 70 – 50
The last two letters of the archangel Michael , מיכאל are אל, which means ‘divinity’, אל is the name of God at the level of Chessed. Because Chessed is the Sefirah that is after Binah, it receives the life force from it and channels it down to the lower Sefirot. White represents light and life, it reflects all colors unconditionaly.
Michael is considered the angel of Chessed. He protects us with love and kindness.
The negative side of white is the Snake that also has white color (Like Lavan, Jacob’s father in law). People that misuse the positive energy of Chessed will get hurt by the Snake.
Gabriel is the angel of the left column, Gevurah and the red color that represents strong energy and desire for the self. The positive aspect is power to act for the continuation of light in the world and the negative aspect is selfishness and not following the precepts of “You shall not do…”. These precepts protect us from falling into the negative side that could consume us by igniting and increasing the desire for the self alone.
The central column, Tiferet and the green color are ‘dressed’ by the angels Uriel, Nuriel, אוריאל, נוריאל, the minister of peace. People that do not connect ot the central column are subject to unpredicted ‘sting’ of the scorpion. His poison brings spiritual death on people that follow the illusions and lies of this world.
The angel Raphael is the minister of the Shechina below and is represented with the color black. Connecting to the Shechina lets us enjoy the ‘water’ flow from above.
People that do not support the Shechina experience thirst that is dissatisfaction in life, lack of light and spiritual blindness.
{||}
The Tikkunei Zohar reveals to us that each malach has it’s own mission. This mission is characterized by energy. This energy vibrates at a certain frequency creating light. This light, due to it’s unique nature, has a specific color according to the harmonic energy and the color, in turn, corresponds to a specific sefirah. This is a perfect example of what I was referring to yesterday with regards to String Theory. We see that due to the unique mission of each malach, the energy associated with it has a unique harmonic and thus creates a different color of light. This we can see in a prism. When a white light (white light contains within it all colors of light), is shown through a prism, the light refracts into different wavelengths of light revealing each color. Here HKBH acts as the prism, assigning a mission and corresponding wavelength and color to that mission. When the malach is at work, the malach vibrates and reveals the specific color of light.

with love and good blessing,
Was King David with his red hair from the left column? Also what leads to connection and disconnection from the Shechina?
Thank you!

Chris,
Zion decided not to publish my comment today. If you’re interested in it, I can be contact at yahoo e-mail with a dot between my two names.
Dear Baruch Eliezer, I appreciate and value your knowledgeable comments very much. I did not decide not to publish your comments.
The system has algorithms to check for suspected spam comments and place them on hold for my approval.
In the morning (new York time) I check the pending comments and approve or reject them.
I only reject true spam and ‘lashon hara’.
I assume that because you had English with many ‘non dictionary’ words the system placed it on hold.
Please explain your abbreviations and other words that are not common in English dictionary.
There are also many people that using google to translate the comments. It would be great help for them if comnenters pay attention to that.
Love to all.
Thanks. This is truly a strange system. One problem I see is that there are some things that should not be translated, just as you don’t translate Tikkunei Zohar into English, but only into Lashon HaKodesh. Also, people have the opportunity to ask questions if they don’t understand. It goes without saying that to translate every Aramaic or Hebrew word into English is not only cumbersome and time consuming, but also impractical. In my opinion the fact that there are Torah books written in English, brings the quality of the Torah down to the level of the galut, instead of elevating the people by teaching them Hebrew and Aramaic which elevates them them closer to the true Torah. In turn, people become dependent upon and essentially disfunctional, relying on you’re summary of the section instead of enabling them. I don’t read the blog everyday. Have you encouraged people to learn Lashon HaKodesh and Aramaic?
Light to all
I am sorry to ask this as you may have said it already, but what is HKBH? Also, forgive this question too, but what is Lashon HaKodesh (I am assuming from the word lashon, it is some kind of tongue((speak)) and from the work kodesh it is holy; but I may be very far off from its meaning as i said I am only slowly learning meaning of words). Please forgive my lack of knowledge in this matter, as I learned (thought myself) how to read Hebrew and Arabic but a lot of the words are still unbeknownst to me.
Please, don’t apologize. HKBH is my abbreviation for HaKadosh Baruch Hu, which means “The HOLY ONE, Blessed be HE.”
Lashon HaKadosh (Holy Tongue or in a better English, Holy Language) is more of the Biblical Hebrew or Torah Hebrew as apposed to the Modern Hebrew language although, the two have some common words.
Aramaic is very similar to Hebrew. The Zohar, several books of the Hebrew Bible, and other esoteric writings are written in Aramaic. It was more of the vernacular language more than 2000 years ago.
Don’t ever apologize for not knowing something. Judaism praises questions. It is the way we learn. In Yeshivas and Kollels (Kollels are where married men learn. Some half day and some full day. I also know of a night time kollel at Meron, at the tomb of Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai where they learn Zohar at night.). All of the Torah learning is done by asking questions.
I still need to pull a dictionary to look up a words when I learn. When my 4 year old son comes home from school everyday I have to ask him to speak in English, because his spoken vocabulary is much greater than mine.
Baruch Eliezer, so much thanks for your very kind reply. As always, I am very grateful for all the teachings I receive from all DZ comments and lights.
Thanks be to The Holy Blessed One for DZ family and for allowing me the understanding and light (even the size of a pinhole) that I have been so blessed to receive and especially for allowing me to be able to read and learn Hebrew, the Holy language.
Light-Love- and blessing to all

Sometimes we just have to be carefull and let ourselves that understandings could be from the other side. Doubt that truth is manifested with the …..
Those discussion reminded me on Pinocchio tale:
“I am sorry fairy, I am not real”. I want to be real. I will be good fairy. ”
And fairy returns to him:” My dear Pinoccio, I am so sorry I could not tell you more about life.”
Ivan,
The greatness of a Tzadik (righteous person, although it really doesn’t translate well into English) is not measured in the amount of Torah he can quote or int he amount of time spent learning, but in the ability to analyze him/herself and do tshuvah (repentance, but it’s not just asking for forgiveness. Again it doesn’t translate well into English). This is what Kind David did better than any of the other Kings of Israel.
Rebbe Nachman learns that the Nose is the aspect of the Mashiach. Why the nose and not the eyes? Because with the nose, the mashiach is able to “sniff” out ever unseen corner and crevice of himself in order to overcome his evil inclination, the yeitzer harah. He looks for the truth in himself and by doing so is able to see the TRUTH of the world.
All people who work on themselves, who HONESTLY work on their tikkun are able to do the same, and by doing so are able to SEE the TRUTH behind the words and actions of others.
The halachah (Jewish Law) of rebuking someone is that we don’t. Because we have lost the true ability to do so. Rebuking someone is to be done so with kindness and gentleness. In an open forum like this to rebuke someone is very dangerous because it can lead to embarrass someone. This is a very grievous sin in Judaism--to publicly embarrass someone, even unintentionally.

Very sure about the responsiblity and the judgement comming, as also what initiated.
Yes I am Ivan. And like I said before there are people who can see the true intentions, motivations of other people.
My wife said to said to ignore you and that’s exactly what I will do. I love my wife and I agree with her, 1000%. This is my FINAL communication with you. People like you are the exact reason why Torah and Zohar should not be taught to gentiles.
It could be that you are right.
But it seems we do not know what obstacles should we overcome. For gentiles accepting the wisdom is matter of love. Not duty, not protected duty in comfort of words to conceal but pure love in sorrounding of …. Could be that it is not your nor mine decision. But just accepting the responsiiblity for that.
Ivan,
I am 1000% right, but the problem with learning Zohar, the Holiest book in Judaism with only being bound by love, is that you are not under the “duty”, to change. Learning Zohar for the sole reason of learning the wisdom, without the duty to be affected by it, that is to change, is nothing more than an intellectual exercise, with nothing to be gained. The ONLY way you can gain anything by learning Zohar is by applying it after accepting upon yourself the responsibility to change. Being bound by love allows you to continue to act the same old way you learned in the Church with all it’s hidden anti-semitic ways, doctrines, opinions, etc.
Let me explain by use of an analogy for you. Let us say that you own a brand new Rolls Royce. And you have a 7 year old son that you love very much. You love him so much that you let him do anything for the sake of love. So your 7 year old son takes the keys to the new Rolls Royce and decides to take it out for a drive. He finds some way to work the pedals and the steering wheel in order to see out. He gets out on the highway and wants to see how fast it goes, just for the sake of curiosity so he drives as fast as he can. 100 kmh, 120, 140, 160, 180 kmh until he looses control. The car overturns killing your only son and everyone else around him on the highway.
Remember you let your son do this out of love without the bound duty of deed.
STOP LEARNING ZOHAR BEFORE YOU COMMIT SPIRITUAL SUICIDE AND KILL OTHERS AROUND YOU. IF YOU FIRST WANT TO LET GO OF YOUR IDOLS AND ACCEPT THE DUTY OF DEED. GREAT!. COME BACK AFTER THAT.
>>>I am 1000% right
Ok,
The blessings and protection for your closed ones and that you never again you will have to be in such a need that they will have to be exposed just for something that is not your decision.
In the words of a great Tzadick Rebbe, Rabbi M. M. Schneerson from Chabad.org
‘Blind Love
Based on letters and talks of the Rebbe, Rabbi M. M. Schneerson
The greatest gift of love is to turn a blind eye. The most essential glue of any union is the ability of at least one of you to say, “I understand. It’s okay. Let’s just get on with things.”
After all, that is what we continuously say to our selves, out of our great self-adoration.” quoted from daily doze of chabad.org
Emet -emet~~ we are a union of one family here at DZ
please remember, we are one in Adonai, and as one we must love and be patient with each other.
light love and shalom to all my dz family
Yes Love
No separation
no racism
Jews have not the privilege
to connect to God
perhaps responsabiltiy
to open this door Delet ( yeudi)
not to close it to others
on the name of what ???
only with LOVE
all souls can connect to the Light
Please It is not about being right
It is about being with the Light
What? Let’s review a little history, shall we? Either version of the handing down of the Holy Zohar you want to believe, it doesn’t matter. It was either given to Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai or to Rabbi Moshe DeLeon. Nevertheless, it was given to the Jews for learning and also for protection. It is our sole responsibility to protect the Zohar from defamation, from the onslaught of impurity, from handling with unclean hands, from misuse by people who still hold to their old ways without wanting to change. The Baal HaSulam applied to all the centers of learning for Kabbalah, but was rejected by all. At that time as is still the Jewish Law, he set out to learn it on his own, which by the way is completely against Jewish Law. There are countless “popular” Kabbalah centers who trace their teaching to him and against Jewish Law teach non-Jews.
If it were meant to be spread to the 70 Nations, the Jewish Law would have changed, The Baal HaSulam wouldn’t have been denied acceptance into all the centers of learning of Kabbalah.
Without the bound responsibility to change, there is no accountability to learn correctly, to change, to evaluate yourself completely and properly, to repent, to use the Kabbalah for the benefit of the world, or any other “GOOD”, other than the self serving purpose of making yourself feel better.
Ask yourself some hard questions. Since you’ve started learning Kabbalah have you fought less with your spouse, kids, family, if this was your issue?
Have you given more money to charity to help feed staring kids, people, families, if you are in the financial position to do so?
Have you donated more time to feed the hungry, to clothe the poor, to help educate mothers, kids, families in half-way houses?
What exactly are you doing differently?
If you can’t think of anything that you’re doing differently to make a difference in the world, then you need to challenge yourself to do so. And if your answer is I really don’t feel a responsibility to do so, then why? It may be that you’re only concerned about how you feel about yourself. It could be it’s only about you and that Kabbalah takes up the time you have while your husband is at work. It could be that you are inclined to philosophize about the world and only want to add countless unnecessary, unproductive, irrelevant questions as a mental exercise.
Why should I allow people who have unclean hands, unclean intentions, unclean hearts, unclean souls to defile something that was entrusted to the Jews.
Don’t ever tell me Jews don’t have a responsibility to protect the Zohar. Afterall, it is because of the 36 x 2 = 72 hidden righteous ones that support the world and the 70 nations of non-Jews.
It would do people well to learn Hebrew and Aramaic for themselves instead of relying on someone else’s work. Challenge yourself to learn Hebrew and when you become more comfortable with it to learn Aramaic. Just don’t sit by reading the proverbial magazine and looking at the proverbial “fish aquarium”. Get up, get out and make a real difference in your family, in your community, in your nation, but DON’T EVER TELL ME WE JEWS DON’T HAVE A RESPONSIBILITY.
Dear Baruch Eliezer, I am sorry to tell you that but you are 1000% wrong.
I will explain in details soon)
(…and you didn’t listen to your wife…)
In the meantime you and Ivan should stop this conversation until you read my response. )
With love to all.
Not to worry Zion. I know I am 1000% correct. I won’t be reading your response. This is my last post, and my wife didn’t mean post, but last day. Halachah prohibits me from saying anything else about this to you and the damage that has been caused with the popularity of Kabbalah.
The popularity of Kabbalah brought many millions of people to recognize the term and its value. It brought many people to enlighten their soul and increase the understanding of God and the spiritual system in the world.
I am almost certain that without the popularity of Kabbalah and the spread of the Zohar in the world, we would’ve been in a different world of chaos by now. People don’t see the mercy of God in action when they are not in chaos.
Like in the example Baruch brought in his comment, the loving father gave his son the the keys to the Rolls Royce (the opened Daily Zohar study and ability to comments freely) and before learning how to use and accept the Light of the Zohar with unconditional love he crash.
I wrote it here many times before asking people to avoid conflict and separation. Our ego is the one that rise up and blind us from doing the right thing.
I am sorry Baruch for not teaching it well enough.
With love to all.
Dear Zion,
If you wouldn’t mind, I would love to read your response to Baruch as to why he is 1000% wrong. I always like to see both sides of the coin. Please send it to me or publish it online if that’s possible.
Thank you.
Dear Chris. I am sure that many others are waiting for my answer. Today is a very busy day for me and I hope to give a detailed answer later tonight.
The issue is 2012 and as I wrote in my article ‘why 2012?’ there is a lot of push from the negative side to break the unity and the awakening that Israelites all over the world feel.
The other side pushes our sensitive principals and try to create separation.
Wars start by two sides with just causes making the wrong actions.
To everyone reading this thread, PLEASE DO NOT TAKE SIDES!
Because it will be a win to the negative side.
Ask specific and related questions and I will answer all.
I could’ve deleted the conversation with few clicks but I want to use this as a step to build certainty in all Israelites and build immunization from similar ‘attack’. Please do not blame anyone.
I will write more.
Love to all.
In the night of the ‘Seder’ that represent the first redemption and prepare us for the Final Redemption we say;
“שפוך חמתך על הגויים אשר לא ידעוך״
‘pour your wrath on the nations (Gentiles) that didn’t know you.’
We don’t say ‘pour your wrath on the Gentiles but only on those that doesn’t know God.
Jews and all Israelites with the ‘knowledge’ (=connection) must be light for all nations to reveal the Israelites and bring them to ‘know’ god.
Like the Zohar said that many of the top rabbis in Israel are from the Erev Rav. To find them just look for those that go against the study of Zohar or find ways to limit the study to small group.
More in relation to that question in The next comment—
First the non-Jews beat up us Jews for centuries, and then they decided to take our Bible and make it theirs and add their own words to it (which the Hebrew Bible says if anyone does this to cast them out and not listen to them) , and now you want to attack us with the Zohar? Do you actually know what “the light” is? I really don’t think so. I think it’s a word you’ve heard so often, but really can’t grasp its true meaning. Enough of the self-righteousness and anti-semitism. Please, learn your history and learn to look at yourselves in truth, instead of the fluffy, feel-good mentality of the West.
Dear Zion
I find this all very hurtful. People who study the Zohar in my eyes are righteous people otherwise they would not have any interest in it. Plus many non Jews I meet are even more keen in learning and searching for the light and need the support from our holy teachings.
As you said previously we are suppose to be a light to the nations ‘Or la goyim’. The chosen people, but not chosen to be superior. We are chosed to spread Gd’s moral and holy ways of life. Abraham of blessed memory never missed an opportunity to teach G’ds torah, he invited strangers to his open tent in the dessert fed and washed them, so they would give him the opportunity to teach them G’ds ways, this is a true role model. I believe this is a wonderful example for us Jewish born people to be. We have missed out on our opprtunity to teach for many centiries. And I believe this might be a reason we are being hated and persecuted by the other nations…
I hope we can all live with each other in peace and harmony and all hatred and prejudice will be removed very soon from our hearts.
Love

Everybody reading this:
The Kabbalah speaks of humanity as one unified soul, and to ensure that this is understood, it uses the analogy of the body. Simply, If at times I behave like an ass, and others state that I do, it’s because they too recognize the ass as part of their own make-up.
What gets you is you, and that’s not very pleasant to have to accept.
You can kiss and make up, or piss on each other. Everybody gets wet, happily or unhappily.
The easiest thing to do is treat each other as you would wish to be treated. Stop and think. Since we’re all a part of this, and since we’re in this together, why behave nastily?
I can’t say I’ve reached the point of loving everybody, but I can say I see why people behave the way they do -- which doesn’t make me any happier, but it does allow me to walk in their shoes, or politely say goodbye and run the other way.
So hello goodbye hello again sometimes.
Nice Stephen

Some good comments from both sides. only from hearing two opposing points of view, can you make an informed decision of which you feel is right.
In relation to the comment made to Baruch Eliezer, where you say he is 1000% wrong. I look forward to seeing your response.
Due to time constraints, the following was not edited for English errors. Please pardon
Because of time zone difference I couldn’t respond quickly with ‘water’ to put out the ‘fire’ that Baruch and Ivan got into. I could’ve deleted all comments and keep this forum clean from the element of separation but there is a lot to learn from this conversation.
My goal is to transform the bitter into sweet and I ask you, the reader of these words a careful and nonjudgmental attention.
I won’t get into who’s started the conversation and what turned it to a ‘learning experience’. There is no one to blame because everything happens for a reason. At the Daily Zohar we learn the secrets of the soul and how to come closer with purity to the light of the Creator and how to correct ourselves and be ready for the Final Redemption.
This is an opportunity to examine the ‘players’ as they represent major groups in the path of the revelation of Kabbalah and the Israelites souls in the world.
To all the people that identify with any of the different views here should know that the Zohar is the ‘Lighthouse’ for all Israelites soul to come together no matter where they were born or what is the religion of their parents.
Please do not take sides as it brings separation that is the tool of the negative side to split us and take the light away from us. The Daily Zohar has a goal to unite people on the spiritual level no matter where they come from. Most of you connected to a Kabbalah organization, Kabbalah Center, Bnei Baruch and others but wish to have more light in your life so you found the Daily Zohar. I do not open (and will not open class rooms like other organization) in order to maintain 100% unity on the spiritual level.
Obviously the Snake, Satan, the other side and all the Klipot want to break that unity and take advantage using truth to the extreme in order to make people take sides and build greater separation between each other. I made this warning few months ago in the article “Why 2012?”
Leviticus 19:33,34
” וְכִי-יָגוּר אִתְּךָ גֵּר, בְּאַרְצְכֶם--לֹא תוֹנוּ, אֹתוֹ.”
“And if a stranger sojourn with thee in your land, ye shall not do him wrong. ”
“כְּאֶזְרָח מִכֶּם יִהְיֶה לָכֶם הַגֵּר הַגָּר אִתְּכֶם, וְאָהַבְתָּ לוֹ כָּמוֹךָ--כִּי-גֵרִים הֱיִיתֶם, בְּאֶרֶץ מִצְרָיִם: אֲנִי, יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵיכֶם”
“The stranger that sojourned with you shall be unto you as the home-born among you, and thou shall love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am YHVH your God”
The word גר, has the same root as ‘convert’ and also a ‘tenant’ in your house. the awaked Israelites are our tenants and they are very important to God that gave us this precept, knowing than in the future ‘ יָגוּר ‘ we will have ‘issues’ with all the brothers that are ‘coming back’ from all corners of the world.
That chapter that include other precepts ends with ” וּשְׁמַרְתֶּם אֶת-כָּל-חֻקֹּתַי וְאֶת-כָּל-מִשְׁפָּטַי, וַעֲשִׂיתֶם אֹתָם: אֲנִי, יְהוָה “, ” And ye shall observe all My statutes, and all Mine ordinances, and do them: I am YHVH. ”
God is telling us explicitly, follow all my laws! don’t pick and choose!
There are many other places that the Torah give special treatment to the ‘converts’. The Holy Ari teaches us that a convert, when completing his conversion process receives the soul level of Ruach. That makes him on a higher level than most others that have the lower soul level of Nefesh.
Deuteronomy 14:29 ” And the Levite, because he hath no portion nor inheritance with thee, and the stranger (גר) , and the fatherless, and the widow, that are within thy gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that YHVH your God may bless thee in all the work of thy hand which thou doest. ”
We are ordered to share with Levites, the stranger, convert, the one that comes to dwell with us in the words of God. Then the fatherless and the widow. The outcome of this sharing acts is ” that YHVH your God may bless you in all the work of your hand which you do”
Exodus 19:6 “ וְאַתֶּם תִּהְיוּ-לִי מַמְלֶכֶת כֹּהֲנִים, וְגוֹי קָדוֹשׁ”
“and ye shall be unto Me a kingdom of priests, and a holy nation”
Rabbi Ashlag, in his article about the ‘responsibility’, Arvut, ערבות from the book “The Gift of the Bible” “מתן תורה” wrote the following;
אולם הגמר של תיקון העולם, יהיה בהכנסת כל באי העולם בסוד עבודתו ית’, כמ”ש והיה ה’ למלך על כל הארץ ביום ההוא יהיה ה’ אחד ושמו אחד, ודייק הכתוב “ביום ההוא” ולא לפני זה, וכן כמה כתובים: כי מלאה הארץ דעה את ה’ וגו’, ונהרו אליו כל הגויים וגו’. אולם תפקידם של ישראל כלפי כל העולם דומה לתפקידם של אבותינו הק’ כלפי האומה הישראלית, דהיינו, כמו שזכות אבותינו עמדה לנו להתפתח ולהזדכך עד שנעשינו ראויים לקבלת התורה, שלולא אבותינו שקיימו כל התורה מטרם שניתנה, כי אז לא היינו משובחים כלל משאר האומות כמובן, (כנ”ל אות י”ט). כמו כן מוטל על האומה הישראלית ע”י העסק בתורה ובמצוות לשמה להכשיר את עצמם ואת בני העולם כולו עד שיתפתחו לקבל עליהם את העבודה הגבוהה הזו של אהבת הזולת שהוא הסולם לתכלית הבריאה, שהיא דביקותו ית’ כמבואר
Translated by Zion
But the final correction of the world, will be achieved by introducing everyone to the secret of God’s work, and as it said in Zecharia 14:9 ” and YHVH will be king over the entire earth. On that day YHVH will be One and His name one”, and the verse specifically says “on that day” and not before it, and it is also written (Isaiah 11:9): “Because the land is filled with the knowledge of YHVH”, etc. (Numerical value 506, same as unconditional love ( אהבת חנם). “…and flocked to him all nations, etc..). However, the role of the Israelites for the world is like the role of our holy fathers for the nation of Israel. The merit of our patriarchs allowed us to develop and refine until we became worthy to receive the Torah. Without them following the law of the Torah before it was given, then we would not be better than all the other nations. Also the Israelites has the responsibility to study of Torah and mitzvot for cleansing and preparing themselves and the rest of the world until they accept the high work of unconditional love for others. It is the ladder to reach the purpose of Creation, which is to be one with the Light, blessed be He.
Share the light with all the people that are in your life, bring them into the unity that is needed for the entire world to bring about Mashiach.
I certainly agree with the issue of separation. Jewish people are separated from each other. numerous different sects and branches, religious won’t speak to non religious. sephardi don’t want to mix with Ashkenazi. Of course other religions also have separation. But in my business I deal with a lot of muslims, many are from abroad. When one needs help from another they all help. When a jewish person asks for help from another jew, no one wants to know. We are still a long way from understanding the problems of separation. Unfortunately the only time Jews have been unified is in times of terible crisis like Egypt or the Holocaust, and the second we are released we go back to the bad old ways. ie. the golden calf or today’s society
Thank you so much Zion, you truly have a beautiful soul (nefesh yafah). I am so thankful to The Holy Blessed One for bringing your words into my life. You teach me virtues and things that my mother (of Blessed Memory) taught me when I was a little girl. I truly believe she had an Israelite soul. Now, in my life,I have no one to give me words of guidance and goodness, no one to strengthen my ways to Hashem’s ways; but now I have you and all my DZ family and I am so thankful for all!!
Love and Shalom to all
P.S. Stephen I agree with all you said, although I wouldn’t have said it so colorfully….LOL (said with the most respect and lightheartedness)

After all the liver “emotional flood” we saw here, hopefully all the bitterness and fragmentation has been purged allowing, instead, a clean new feeding to our hearts and minds with much more sweetness (cooling down) and Love connections.
Lots of Blessings, Love and Light to all,
Lea
>>>but it does allow me to walk in their shoes,
It could be that this is never possible to take someone’s shoes and feel what he feels.
For that you need give up on yourself but doubt this could be as part of decision, commandment or like invitation to donate, or call to volunteering but as secret personal
action in personal need, nobody knows about it.
>>>politely say goodbye and run the other way
restriction versus run away? …of course this has nothing to with confrontations on DZ, which could be considered positively. Not agree that confrontations in opinions are threatening the growth to positivity. After all this way something negative is comming out in dissolved form that otherwise could accumulate and wait on some trigger in daily Life and come out with surpressed potential under the cover of spiritual mileage ( laboratory level ).
>>> oponents
There were no oponents.
Both of them respect discipline, …real actions, …much more common than it seems.
>>>emotional flood and unclean hands of gentiles
Americans could learn more from their history.
During American Civil War. Who knows how many casualties and deads would be more.
It could be that most of the continent would live in Middle Age or live on Drug Cartels like in
south American countries today. If president Lincoln would not give express how he needs coloured people. 200 000 coloured peopled join to Northern Amry, who were much better fighters with spirit than tired oldiers without motivation. Those man brought war to the end and open gate to the industrialization. Light could not anymore penetrate through garments on those plantation ecomonies with confrontantional and decadent values. The Light needs choose people and offer them the opportunity. It was not the decision of white poeple, it was the decision on some level because people old patterns no matter how traditional values were stable and old , old patterns crushed, people lived in sins and decadence, sneaky violence… Light choose coloured people to open the gates to the new potentials of old patterns.
>>> World is doing the evil to Jewish people
Studying the history of my town , where Jewish people come here in Middle Age because of the violence on them in the lands where today southern parts Germany and Poland. They treated this area as transfer temporarily shelter on the way to the Turkey. Otomanic empire in early stages suppose to be opened for the comming Jewish. And Slavec lands on this way were pretty indeferent on religion wars in wild decadent exploiting North West Europe. Some of the Jewish people stopped here and they joined to the local economy and still preserve the autonomy. Read one beatifull story from that time about the death ( It is mentioned in cronicle as only suicide in the town by jumping to the river ) of the Jewish young who waited for her familly in this town after receiving the bad news from the north To come down from the lands on present German Bavaria. Those Jewish people suddenly disappeared after decrees and influence of religion wars ( catholic-protestant wars picked every one who seemed be different or not able to choose the side -- who was not CLEAN ).
Guess the personalities and weaknesses suppose not to be generalized for the pain on communities. Nor families and closed ones used for opinions or enforcing guilt.
It is about personal perception not the guilt of the communities -- personal lesson, personal test, personal courage to give up on yourself -- ok not jump to the river but living in the Lab with blessing is not necesserally means others are unclean or cursed with negativity… Agree that Kabbala is dangerous. It is dangerous because it is giving new melting opportunities and new opportunities to give up on self and release …
Unifying (MELTING ???).
A lot of discussion about teacher-student relationship, father-son and humbleness versus
reacting on contradictories, mirrors, provocative sentences like who is owner of abbreviations or knolwdge in the pool of so-called cheap spiritual internet sources. Computer guys worked on open source or health practicioners with natural hygiennes concepts exceeded this Ego level years ago in practice not in phylosophy by sharing experiences and knowledge on open podium or Maybe Better said Ego was tricked and positively abused. Probably this world today would not have so many potentials if the Light would not touch them. And confrontations expressed here is normal giving up on self fears and crushing of old patterns of fear.
There is wonderfull documentary about city of Jaffa at the beginning of 20s and 30s of 20th century when Jewish people and Arabic people joined and made common business and cooperation on orange business for export. Jewish people were helpfull to each other as the perception. There was no threat and no need for fear but they still help each other in establishing orange plantations.
Oh forget about that son and his father ( student teacher).
Please do not forget that soul of that son choose his father and mother to reincarnate to their familly. So it is the son’s need to fuflill his son’s role to his father.
Not the father to fulfill his parental role, but son his desire to be the son to the father.
