Episode notes

Eliyahu Jian was my very first Kabbalah teacher. He’s been teaching for nearly three decades, and has developed an uncanny ability to simplify esoteric wisdom. In addition to being a spiritual teacher, he’s a coach, speaker, and founder of the nonprofit Vital Transformation. The mind is split into two parts: the positive and the negative. Whatever you feed grows stronger, and it takes a lifetime of work to ensure that negative thoughts don’t take over. You need to act on positive thoughts or they will eventually become rotten. This is just one of many gems of wisdom from Kabbalah that can transform your life.

In This Episode:

[01:32] - We start things off with a very simple question: what’s the meaning of life?
[02:57] - Eliyahu talks more about body consciousness as opposed to soul consciousness.
[05:03] - We hear about the deeper implications of the fact that we don’t have free will about what thoughts come into our minds.
[06:56] - Many people who struggle in life are actually struggling with their own minds, Yehuda explains.
[08:28] - Eliyahu shares the parable of two wolves, illustrating the importance of feeding positive thoughts.
[11:48] - With every new president that’s elected, Eliyahu points out, people have hope that their lives will get better. This takes away their free will.
[15:51] - When we look at a historical great leader, such as Gandhi, they were a personification of the collective consciousness. Stephan and Eliyahu discuss this concept, as well as the concept of saviors.
[21:25] - Stephan talks about an example he experienced of a time when he resolved a conflict with light instead of by locking horns.
[23:25] - Eliyahu shares his thoughts and wisdom on the example that Stephan has just shared.
[25:40] - If you’re experiencing a lack or a void, doesn’t that awaken or attract more lack and more voids in other areas?
[28:36] - Stephan shares a story that Ephraim Olschewski told about what he asks his kids when they’re unhappy about something.
[30:26] - Eliyahu elabores on the Kabbalistic concept of creating negative angels.
[33:47] - Stephan brings up the role of numerology in Kabbalah.
[34:52] - We hear about the concept of the evil eye, and how it’s related to jealousy. The question of “how many,” Eliyahu explains, creates the evil eye.
[40:18] - Eliyahu moves on from the topic of the evil eye to the concept of evil speech.
[44:47] - Stephan describes a point that has been one of the cornerstones of his spiritual development in recent years: restriction.
[46:53] - Eliyahu discusses a lesson he learned while he was working in a rehab in Florida for two years.
[49:12] - We hear a specific example to clarify what Eliyahu has been saying about restriction. Stephan then shares an example of his own to illuminate how this concept has improved his life.
[53:59] - Eliyahu talks about what is beautiful about Stephan’s choice to restrict sugar along with his daughter.
[57:19] - The reflection on others bears repeating, Eliyahu points out, explaining why working together is so important.
