Lesson Highlights

  • Connecting with the portion of Balak every day
  • The fear and concern of Balak and Bilaam: the Israelites were winning the battle of removing darkness
  • The king of Sichon: representing the force that creates negative thoughts, doubts and fears in our world
  • The king of Og: representing the force that activates all physical problems in our world
  • Choosing to be soldiers of the Light
  • Not following the path of the Erev Rav
  • The battle: forces of darkness against the soldiers of the Light
  • The revelation on Sinai: completing seven generations of battle
  • Enjoying the battle: choosing to be a soldier does not mean struggling or unhappiness
  • The prophesy of Bilaam: darkness will be removed in the end
  • The Creator is choosing us


Lesson Description

Kabbalists teach that there are both positive and negative forces in the world that have an influence over our lives. The negative forces in the world try to cause calamities, doubts and fears within us as well as physical challenges both individually and collectively.

Join Michael as he shows us how we can battle these negative forces and become soldiers of the Light—positive forces that transform darkness into Light—for bringing joy, fulfillment and renewed energy to our lives and ultimately bringing an end to pain, suffering and death from the world.


About This Course

One of the major spiritual connections kabbalists make on the Shabbat is the reading of a weekly Bible portion. These consciousness lectures present lessons on each week's portion to elevate our consciousness and create awareness of the spiritual energy and gifts that are available through the reading of a Torah Scroll. With greater awareness and an awakened consciousness, we can connect to the Light revealed each week and use it as support in our ongoing spiritual work. This playlist contains consciousness lectures from the four most recent Shabbats.
