Many of us think they're really spiritual, but they're as well caught up in a program. First people ran after money, sex, power, recognition, etc. Now they run after Nirvana, Ein Sof, Gmar Tikkun, or whatever. The goal has changed, but they're still very much from this world. They think spirituality functions like a business with God, “when I do this at that time, I'll earn this light, etc.” But so spirituality doesn't function. Being spiritual means to come into this very moment. This moment is eternity — the Ein Sof so to say, which in Hebrew means 'without end'. Everything happens in reality here and now, the future, the past, the present. Everything at the end collapses into 'the now'. Being truly spiritual means to leave the world of time behind you. Instead, you from now on enter eternity — complete freedom. You cease to be a prisoner from your own chains or the chains of others. That's why I recommend people, who want to learn how to meditate to start doing nothing first for a certain period of time every day. So we achieve a feeling of ease, where we can just be there for us alone, absent from our daily program. Ein Sof — the highest state in Kabbalah — doesn't need results. And so, when we do absolutely nothing, we begin to connect with the Ein Sof.
