Lesson Description

Kabbalists teach that Amalek, a code for doubt, is the source of feeling separated from the Light. This can lead to pain, fear and lack. Join Eitan as he shows us how hearing the portion of Shabbat Zachor can give us the strength to overcome the illusion of Amalek, connect us with the true essence of our soul and be in total oneness with the Light.

About This Course

The two spiritual forces that dictate our lives are Light – or sharing – and Ego – or desire to receive only for ourselves. The more our ego is present, the less Light we can access. The portion of Vayikra helps us to diminish our ego, so we can strengthen our connection with the Light. Look for opportunities to be humble this week and connect to the Light instead of others’ recognition you otherwise would have received.
