The Light & The Vessel

Hi there,

Last night's class was great. Sorry if I was a little out of it but I'm dealing with boyfriend issues. Love can be complicated, right? Anyway, Benjamin said a lot of great things about following your destiny. Much food for thought for next week.

DPW didn't happen this week but hopefully we can get together next week unless we want to put it on hold for finals or the holidays. Whatever everyone wants to do just leave a comment on the blog and we'll decide as a group. You should all have this blog link from the email me or Jill sent out this week or my posting on Mark's BKC Facebook group.

By the way, if you are on Facebook join Mark's BKC group because he is pretty plugged in. You can check it out on the Facebook icon on this blog. Mark is also on Twitter under mordechaihillel and Benjamin under malul. Add them to your Twitter account if you like.

I am going over the homework in case anyone has a question maybe the group can help with or someone wants to share a story that relates to the work we are doing. We do this after class with Lee but sometimes things come up during the week and we can come on this blog and talk whenever the moment strikes us. Plus talking on a blog can be more convenient than coordinating a face-to-face meeting or group time on Skype.

I hope you all have a great weekend :) Don't forget Shabbat!

Disc 19: The Light

Consciousness is light. The term light is merely a code word to convey the broad spectrum of fulfillment for which human beings long. This energy has one single will: to share. The essence of this energy is boundless joy.

To appreciate this light, this energy, we had to know what it felt like to be without it. Appreciation brings back the light.

How is your gratitude journal going?

Disc 20: The Vessel

To fulfill the Light's giving nature, a receiver or vessel was created. The nature of the vessel is the infinite desire to receive. This combination embodied an infinite variety of desires and fulfillment.

Is your vessel too small? Do you appreciate what you have?
Are your desires selfish? Do you have others in mind?

Compassion is the force of the universe, the connectedness physicists call the United Field.

Disc 21: Stop Taking From Others

Judging ourselves and others comes from a need to be in control or feel significant. When we judge ourselves, we turn towards the ego instead of the light. Remember there is a bigger picture and our flaws are our gifts.

When we hurt others with negative thoughts, words or deeds, we hurt ourselves. This negative energy is the "Evil Eye" and it can also be turned on us. Send the individual positive thoughts and wear the Red String for your protection.

Golden Rule - Do unto others as you would like them to do unto you.
