Join me and David Ghiyam in a deeply spiritual episode that will dive into such topics as clairvoyance, reactivity, desire, mercy, and so much more. David is a senior lecturer at The Kabbalah Centre as well as the founder of MaryRuth Organics. He believes when you transform your nature for the better, your light of mercy becomes a vessel that receives the light of wisdom and invites blessings. David is full of powerful age-old wisdom that has changed my life, and that I hope and believe will change yours too.

In This Episode: [01:34] - Let’s talk about Kabbalah! David explores what the light is before clarifying the difference between the light of wisdom and the light of mercy. [04:11] - David clarifies that the only way that someone can reveal the light of mercy is to overcome their nature, not just to do good deeds. [07:44] - The light of the creator has all of the types of pleasures and fulfillments that we’re looking for within it, David explains. [10:17] - Stephan takes a moment to give a specific example to clarify what it means to give proactively without expectations. [11:57] - David differentiates the kind of prayers that are typical (like praying for health and financial abundance) from praying for things like certainty and desire. [14:58] - What does it mean that certainty is not of this real or dimension? [17:34] - We should be excited about finding a negative attribute ourselves because we can now fix the problem and expand our vessel. [18:24] - David talks about the various aspects of ego. He then digs deeper into pride specifically. [21:28] - As long as we follow the steps that Kabbalah outlines for us, we’ll know how to handle any challenge that we face. [25:15] - David talks about the
Ana b’Koach prayer and the role it plays as a tool. [27:58] - We hear about the concept that truth before mercy creates chaos, which led Stephan to make a lot of changes. [31:25] - Stephan gives an example from his own life that illustrates the importance of coming at something with mercy instead of just truth. [33:34] - If you eat meat with consciousness, prayer, and gratitude for the animal, then that elevates the animal’s soul. David points out that just about everything that you do needs to have this kind of consciousness. [36:31] - David talks more about the Bible,
the Zohar, and how they relate to everything he and Stephan have been discussing. [38:01] - We learn about the tree of life and the tree of knowledge. [40:05] - David stumbled on financial success early, and talks about how this experience propelled him to learn the system and wisdom of the Kabbalah. [41:42] - What one thing would David recommend a listener do as the next step? One option is to text “Kabbalah” to 797979. Links and Resources:
