Given by God
Secret Code: there is a spiritual dimension in all of life

Kabbalah speaks about the mystical value to life and spiritual connection with God
5 principles: Upper force that we live in, we are the egoistic parts to it, egos evolved at the end we will reach a state to unify with the force. [ simply: we are part of something and can experience inner peace]
We are one soul, one desire ( desire to enjoy)
Shatter into millions of parts described as individual souls
Become like the Creator, need to unify together ( all souls have to come back together as one)
We hate one another in actuality but, we have to connect with each other
Loving spirit that created us
