- Our
five senses block us from perceiving the true, eternal reality.
- The
program that runs our five senses is called “egoism.”
- In
order to know the greater reality that surrounds us, we need to develop an
additional sense, what Kabbalists call “the sixth sense.”
- All of
our thoughts and actions are motivated by the desire to receive pleasure
(or, “the will to receive”).
- We
evolve individually and humanity evolves as a whole through five sets of
desires: (1) food, sex, shelter; (2) wealth; (3) honor, pride, power; (4)
knowledge; (5) spirituality.
- Human
nature is a will to receive (egoism) and the nature of the Creator is a
will to bestow, unconditional altruism.
- The
law of equivalence of form states that we are created in order to become
equivalent to the Creator, i.e. to acquire altruistic qualities.
