Lesson Description

The spiritual transformation is a continuous work of earning the blessings we want to experience in life. We can never transform by merely following books, everything has a purpose, and having a pure intention of removing our reactivity and negativity is fundamental for our transformation and connection to the Light. Rav Ashlag explains in his writings, The Light of Wisdom, page 7, that through the study of Kabbalah our consciousness can expand to fulfill our life's purpose.
