daily consciousness tune-up
Grand Canyon, Arizona
Kabbalists say our thoughts do not come from the brain, just as music does not originate in the circuits of a physical radio. They compare the brain to an antenna - it picks up a signal and rebroadcasts it into the conscious mind.
There are two broadcast stations - the Light and the Opponent. Distinguishing thoughts that come from the Light from those that come from the Opponent, allows us to reclaim control of our lives.
As you go through your day, become aware of which thoughts originate from the Opponent and which come from the Light.

Interesting view...I have never really looked into Kabbalah's philosophy. Do you practice it?
Is Kabbalah Jewish mysticism?
frieda: I'm considering it. I have many friends who do practice it.
Sherry: Yes, it is a part of Jewish tradition.Kabbalah (Hebrew: קַבָּלָה, Tiberian: qabːɔˈlɔh, Qabbālāh, Israeli: Kabala) literally means "receiving", in the sense of a "received tradition",
Kabbalah esoterically interprets the Hebrew Bible (Tanakh) and classical Jewish texts (halakha and aggadah) and practices (mitzvot), as expressing a mystical doctrine concerning God's simultaneous immanence and transcendence, an attempted resolution to the ancient paradox of how the ultimate Being—"that which is not conceivable by thinking" (Isaac the Blind)—nevertheless comes to be known and experienced by the created world.
