Quoting Kabbalah Online, Menolly wrote:To practice ego all you need is fear; to practice compassion all you need is love.
I am still small and had to ask my Mama to explain some of the words, but I recognized the end as being the same as my favorite song.
I think what the nice lady repeated from her book of faces is right. Fear is bad and so is caring to much about yourself. Love is good because it is all about caring for other people.
There's nothing you can do that can't be done.
Nothing you can sing that can't be sung.
Nothing you can say
But you can learn how to play the game
It's easy.
All you need is Love
Well, I suppose there is a certain poetic justice in that, Menolly. The Kabbalah thought I originally had in mind for this juncture, Abra KeDabra, is the one that you posted as your Facebook status yesterday.
That we are led to overlapping thought patterns is an interesting coincidence. Where this will lead as we continue this twice-weekly cycle...who can say?
Love prevails.

A government which robs Peter to pay Paul, can always count on the support of Paul.

Abra KeDabra is also way in the future for the path I am following, which is basically mostly the order in which I have read them. Perhaps when I repeat them, they will have a different meaning than when first read.
The concept of fine structure constant is new to me with your post, so I definitely can not answer. But a quick search reveals that the gematria of the Hebrew letter spelling of Kabbalah equals 137...
Where Kabbbalah Kisses Science wrote:The litany of modern physics is replete with assaults upon common sense: the speed of light remains constant regardless of the circumstances surrounding its measurement; energy-changes in the universe occur at fixed "quantum" intervals (Planck's constant) rather than in contiguous increments. These two "constants" in nature -- "c" (the speed of light) and "h" (the quantum-energy unit) -- change forever the way we conceive classical concepts such as "infinity" and "zero". A third "constant" in nature, derived from these first two and positioned -- as it were -- between them, is the "inverse of fine-structure constant" equal to the "pure" (i.e. dimension-less) number of 137. (The number 137 is also the numerical equivalent of the word Kabbalah in Hebrew.) Together, these three constants comprise a set that corresponds to the sequence of stages in one's service of G-d explained elsewhere in Chassidic tradition.
I will admit it is pretty much gibberish to me. But is seems a fascinating concept to introduce, Holarchy.
Not much of a debater myself either these days. It's for the young. I'm more of a hit-and-run poster, often in 140 characters or less even away from Twitter.
