Ep.54 The Final Test Before Manifestation

0:02David Ghiyam:Welcome, everyone, to episode 54 of the David Ghiyam podcast. There's a lot going on this week's energy, and many of you have heard me speak about it both on social media and in our last podcast. We are in the throes of one of the most energetic and challenging times of the year, according to the sages. The middle of the nine days of Leo are considered to be some of the most intense times for people. And that's something I'm definitely going to talk about. I'm going to talk about pain and challenges that we're going through. I'm going to talk about some of the experiences of loss, grief, shame and guilt, a lot of feelings that might be coming up for people.

0:48I'm also going to talk about this idea that, you know, it's going to get good.

0:59David Ghiyam:It's going to get good. It always gets good. Everything always works out. And I want you to know that. And we should have certainty in that. And we'll discuss some tools, some consciousness around how we can get there. I'm also really excited. kind of came out of nowhere, but I just opened up the tour to come by Mexico City, August 31st. Super excited about that. And our most requested city in the world, which has been Dubai. I will be coming to Dubai October 19th. Registration is open for both cities. And I'm excited to be able to see you in person. All right. Let's start actually with a mantra, a mantra and a prayer that I want us to open this energy up with.

1:54David Ghiyam:Because every morning when I wake up, one of the things that I've realized is that the negative side, the opponent, goes toe to toe with us to help us reveal the light of our soul. So you are going to wake up not feeling whole on 100%. You're going to feel the forces attacking you in some way or another. Something will make you reactive. Something will make you have doubts or anxiety and fears. And we all are subject to fears. We're afraid of the future. We're afraid of losing something from our past. We're afraid of experiencing pain. We're afraid of people who we love experiencing pain. We're afraid of loss.

2:42David Ghiyam:So, I always try to start my day with a prayer. A prayer is a request to the Creator. Even though the Creator is immutable, it does not change. The force of the Creator never changes. The prayer to the Creator is actually an expansion of our vessel to hold the light of the Creator that is already there. So, it's not that there's someone in the sky that's listening to us and as a result giving us what we're praying for. It's that the act of prayer, the words, is a technology that expands our vessel and our capacity to reveal energy that is already there, which is called the creator. The creator is endless energy, which is there always waiting to be revealed.

3:29Prayer is the way we expand our vessel to reveal that energy.

3:32David Ghiyam:The mantra is actually in many ways like an affirmation, a declaration of certainty about a being, a state of consciousness, an energy intelligence. So my prayer for myself and for all of us is that I ask the creator to give all of us certainty beyond our logical mind. Certainty beyond our five senses. We're going to see things that we are scared of. We're going to hear things that might make us emotional, that might make us feel that we're about to lose something. Maybe we hear something that is challenging our health or challenging our love life. We hear something and we feel that our children aren't safe and we feel that our finances aren't safe.

4:28David Ghiyam:you see something with your eyes and your senses maybe you see a lawsuit physically see a lawsuit you're getting sued is this really happening well regardless of what you see here and feel we want to ask the creator to give us certainty beyond logic that everything is whole and perfect right now. I also want to ask the creator for all of us to give us strength to rise above our feelings. And our feelings can take us on a major roller coaster. And our feelings can make us feel that this is real. This grief is real. This loss is real. Something in your business fell apart. That's real. I don't have money right now.

5:22David Ghiyam:That's real. I'm single right now. That's real. I'm trying to have a child. I can't have a child. That's real. It's just not true. It's just not true because we know in a parallel reality, there is endless light and perfection. And if we access this reality, all the pain and suffering goes away. All the darkness goes away. So So, the question always is, how do I access this reality? Because in one moment, all your pain can go away. So, the Creator will give us strength to rise above our feelings to access this realm. Kabbalists actually call this realm the realm of atzilut. It's the realm of emanation.

6:05David Ghiyam:And we'll have deeper Kabbalistic lessons in the future. There's four major realms of energy. The highest one is where the light is fully revealed, and so the darkness goes away. And when we have certainty beyond logic, because logic is the lower three worlds, we have certainty beyond logic, we actually tap into this fourth realm. And we experience now that realm here in this physical world. And so you will experience miracles. The mantra I want to share is that we are a whole and there's nothing that we're missing right now. so whatever you think you're missing just tell yourself right now that you're not missing anything everything is perfect the way it is you have love you have your soulmate your body is completely healed your children are safe beautiful you are beautiful you physically are emanating physically attractive in every way.

7:13David Ghiyam:And the energy that is coming from you is protecting you from the people who should not be in your life, people who will hurt you or scam you, take advantage of you. You're actually creating a protective shield so that you're almost invincible or invisible to them. The universal algorithm of life will ensure not to show you quote-unquote toxic content, i.e. bringing in people who are going to take from you as opposed to give to you. Something else that's also coming to mind is to ask the creator to bring us good friends, good friends, good mentors, inspirational people. To ask the creator that even on your social media feed you are only shown that which will elevate your consciousness and not bring you down by asking for it you create a vessel for it and so the universe then starts to bring that to you but we have to ask for it ask the creator to bring me only the right people only the people that will elevate my consciousness because all that matters is the elevation of your consciousness it's the only investment that we we need to be making more than anything else when you invest in your consciousness, which is your belief systems about the Creator, your belief systems about yourself, your level of certainty that everything is good and you keep investing, you build that muscle of certainty, then all the darkness slowly begins to disappear in different parts of your life.

8:55David Ghiyam:And soon as you increase your certainty, you increase your fulfillment in every way. The powerful thing about what Kabbalah is teaching us is we do not need to get in the weeds. We do not need to understand the details of how these miracles occur or in which part of our life they will occur. When or how. We just need to keep becoming like the light of the Creator. We must emulate the qualities of the Creator. The most powerful of which is certainty and sharing. and when we emulate certainty and sharing, having a desire to share, coming from a giving place in everything that we do, we create this energy field, this momentum, this flywheel of energy everywhere it goes and it just removes the darkness and when the darkness is removed, the problems become solved.

9:47We just don't know how but they become solved. The money comes from somewhere. The healing comes from somewhere or the healing comes through a doctor or a podcast or some kind of medicine that you didn't know about or a supplement that you didn't know about, but it comes. And it couldn't come before because we weren't accessing the light first. The energetic source of that medicine, the energetic source of that doctor, the energetic source of that wisdom, you weren't connected to the energetic source, so the actual physical healing couldn't come. But once you connect to the source of the energy by becoming like the source, then everything can come.

10:24The love can come, the medicine can come, the money can come. So are we acting like the source? Are you acting like the creator right now in your life? Think about the relationships that you have. Are you acting like the creator to each one of them? Are you acting with certainty, with compassion, with love? Are you finding ways slowly to identify where your ego is in place, where your manipulation is in place, where your selfishness is in place. And being conscious of it, which is always step one. And step two, to be careful not to speak from this place or act from this place. A lot of times what's confusing is we have good intentions with people.

11:05So we want to help them. We have something positive we want to share with them. But maybe there's a hidden agenda also. some kind of control or some kind of manipulation. For example, like, let's say that you are at an event, and you see someone that is has something you want, maybe they have some wealth, and you you want them to invest, or they have beauty, and you want to date them, you are attracted to them.

11:37David Ghiyam:And so what you do is you go and you try to help them in some way. You actually talk to them about their lives and you try to help them maybe with their business. Or you try to help them. You're doing something that seems very positive because you want to add value. But behind all of this giving, quote unquote, there's an agenda. You want to take something from them. You want money from them. You want love from them. You want approval from them. You want some kind of sexual attraction from them. So what's happening here is there's 50 % of us that is giving, and from the outside it looks like we're giving, but there's also 50 % of us that's taking from them.

12:15We're taking from them, which is very unseen, but it's felt. And often, have you ever felt, you know, someone's doing all the right things, but you feel drained or you feel like there's something wrong and it doesn't feel good? That's because there's a hidden agenda or need to take something. It can even be approval. I remember so many times when I first started to speak publicly. I was 18 years old when I gave my first introduction to Kabbalah. And my teachers told me, I have always had the best mentors growing up. And I remember one of them, his name is Eitan Yardini. He said to me, the crowd will not be inspired just from the content of what you share or the enthusiasm in which you share it.

13:05or even how good of a public speaker you are. That's part of it. So the value of what you share and the content and your enthusiasm and even the work you do on yourself, they're going to feel energy from that. But what you really have to be careful of, the one thing that will actually steal all that energy back and cause your audience not to have miracles in their lives is if you want them to like you, if you want their approval. When you want someone's approval, you have this hidden agenda. It's a black hole that sucks away all the light and energy that you were giving through your positive intention or your wisdom or whatever it is.

13:48So a lot of times we have public speakers, mentors, teachers who create a net zero effect to the souls of the people because 50 % of them is giving great energy and wisdom. them, but there's another 50 % that says, hey, if you don't like me, if you don't appreciate me, if you don't respect me, I'm not going to feel good enough. I'm not going to feel happy. And that is a tikkun. That is a soul correction that the soul comes to this world to correct the need for validation. But what happens is the tikkun actually causes you to be a great speaker. The tikkun causes you to be a great business person.

14:26The tikkun is causing you to be someone very wealthy or powerful because now you can use that wealth and power or fame to feed your need for validation. And this is often why many people who do become successful or famous or wealthy, when they get it, they feel so empty. Why empty? Because who was in control the whole time? Who was the boss? Who was motivating them to be so successful? Who was motivating them to be in this kind of a relationship. It was their need for approval, their need to have other people respect them, the need to be in control. And so when you take all this energy, but the motivating factor was your need for approval, it all goes into a black hole.

15:09And that's why it's emptiness. So going back to the party scene, a simple practical step to when you see something that you want to do, you want to give, you just pause right there and you ask yourself, What part of me is taking? What part of me is trying to use this person? What part of me is manipulating? What part of me is feeding a lack inside of me? And many of us, we're starting to become more aware of our tikkun. I always advise people to take Your Infinite Soul, yourinfinitesoul.com. It's the master course that you can pay whatever you want for. And I share their very methodical approach to the soul.

15:54that helps us understand what our soul correction is. And when you understand a little bit more about your soul correction or all of your soul corrections, need for approval being almost one that we all have, anger, control, fear of abandonment, well, then you can realize, hey, one of the reasons I'm saying what I'm saying to my girlfriend or I'm saying what I'm saying to my spouse is because I'm actually afraid. It's actually coming from a place of fear. So I'm going to pause and not say that. And by pausing and not feeding the tikkun, I'm expanding my vessel for miracles. So there's really two things that we always need to do to connect to the vibration of the creator.

16:35Number one is come from a giving place. Ask yourself, what would truly be giving right now? What would truly help elevate this person unconditionally right now? what if I received nothing could I do could I say could I add to elevate this person and even in the realm of giving there's three levels to that there's giving on the level of the body consciousness there's giving on the level of the mental emotional consciousness and then there's giving on the level of the soul consciousness for example if I give you food if I host you for a dinner I'm giving I'm giving you a nice meal. It's very pleasurable.

17:17It gives you energy for a couple hours. But I'm giving to your body. Should I give to the body? Of course you should. Should we feed people in this world? Of course we should. Should we give a homeless man a fish? We should. But it's just the body level. The second level of giving, which is a little bit higher, is the emotional, the mental level. Maybe by having a meal, I'm also gathering friends together. I'm gathering community together. I'm creating a bond between good souls. I'm creating friendships. Maybe in this meal, we will empower each other and help each other have more certainty or have more wisdom and to help sharpen our emotions and our minds and make ourselves stronger.

18:04We're creating friendships and community. So this is the second level of giving. And there's people who give very well on this level. Then there's the third level of giving, which is giving to the soul. It's the one that's always fascinated me the most and the reason why I dedicated my life to the spreading of Kabbalah in this world. When I was 15 years old and I took my first Kabbalah class, I realized this is the most powerful wisdom in the world. I'm 41 years old now. And when I was 15, so this was 26 years ago, I said, wow, if everyone would just learn this wisdom, we would remove all pain and suffering from this world.

18:36I was part of an organization, a nonprofit, called the Kabbalah Center, and they were amazing as mentors to me, bringing me in, helping me, and giving me a place to give back. And when I became 18, I went to college, and at 19, I decided, I graduated college, and I said, I want to dedicate my life to the world. There's many things I could have done. I could have gone to grad school. I could have gone into the business world. I could have been an entrepreneur. But I said, I want to give, and I want to give on the level of the soul. I could have joined many organizations to give back but I wanted to give on the level of the soul so when I speak to you my hope is you know I can share advice about how to build a brand how to be an entrepreneur right I have I have a creator has allowed me to do that so I can tell you some technical skills of maybe how to run a TikTok shop account or how to run meta Facebook advertising, but that's not really the level of giving that I'm interested in.

19:39I think that's a lower level of giving compared to giving over what the sages have given us, tools for the soul, transforming your soul to access the light of the creator. So each one of us, when we're with our friends, family, partners, community, think on the level of the salt, what can you do to give to their soul? What can you do to empower their certainty? You know, I was just with my brother right now. And my brother's a doctor, he's a physician. And we were talking about part of his practice, part of his clinic, is that he does longevity and biohacking and all of these different things.

20:20And so I was talking to him in one of the things

20:24David Ghiyam:that I think my brother does very well because he never was into Kabbalah, but now he's very into Kabbalah. It's been about four years and he is all the way into it. So now he's combining spirituality with medicine and it's incredible. So the foundational medical practice he's always had plus now the spirituality. What does the Zohar, the main text of the Kabbalists say about doctors? And each one of us is a doctor in some way. So this applies to all of us. A doctor's main job to give over to their patient is not a diagnosis for their health. It's not what medicine is going to be best for them.

21:04The Zohar is very clear. A doctor must give their patient certainty. That is their number one goal. That is the most powerful medicine you can give someone is certainty. Certainty. Help people have more certainty. Help people realize that the glass is not just half full. It is full. The glass isn't half full or half empty. The glass is 100 % full. The glass is 100 % full. And we become spiritual doctors when we help people have certainty. It's the most attractive thing you can do even in a relationship. Have certainty. Give your partner certainty. Empower them to have certainty. I was with my kids earlier today.

21:46And there's four of them. and before I take them to camp, we have about 30 minutes, we play in the backyard

21:54David Ghiyam:and we're on the swings and we're doing a couple other things and I do this almost every morning with them. I say, repeat after me. Today I want and then they say certainty. Today I want and then they say certainty. Now, especially the younger two are not really understanding what this word certainty means but they're feeling the energy of what it is. I want them to understand from an early age the greatest quality they can have is certainty. And each one of us, when we're feeling guilt, shame, fear, anxiety, when we feel we need to spring into action to fix everything all the time, just remember something.

22:32Certainty beyond logic solves every problem. Solves every problem. Certainty is the most powerful quality of the Creator. So going back to the vibration of the creator, we said there's two pathways. We said always be coming from a giving place and we said that giving has three levels to it. Now that second pathway is the transformation of our negativity. Seeing our fears come up and then pausing to not feed those demons, to feed that beast. Because when you don't feed the fear of abandonment, it dies, it loses its power. Now we're not saying to suppress your feelings. There's a big difference between suppression and resisting the feeding of the fears.

23:28The main difference is your intention. When I don't approach that person because I know I want something from them and I don't want to be a taker. When I don't say something because I know there's 20 % of me that's being manipulative. When I am pausing an action because I know there's a part of me that has an agenda, I'm not suppressing because suppression is when you do something without knowing why you're doing it. If you know that the reason you are pausing feeding your fears is because you're accessing the light of the creator, you're getting something more, you're getting something greater, then you're expanding the vessel you're revealing the light so when you pause and you don't send that text message back and when you pause you don't respond to that email right away and you pause and you don't do that thing that you feel compelled to do because you're in pain you're in lack you're afraid to miss out you're afraid to lose the opportunity all fear you need to pause everything you're doing and tell the creator I have complete certainty right now that everything is here.

24:40This is the other side of becoming like God, becoming like the creator. Always be coming from a giving place and acknowledge and look for the lack and the fear and transform that to wholeness by not feeding it. When we have these two, especially during this time where the energy is so intense, we become miracle makers everywhere we go. You might be feeling pain right now.

25:06David Ghiyam:You might be feeling loss, grief, some form of sorrow. You might have pain in your physical body. You might be having a lot of confusion. There's a lot going on. Everybody's against you, it feels like. It feels like sometimes you can't trust people, can't count on people. What was stable is no longer stable. You might be feeling that right now. Just take a deep breath and realize you're being tested because there's so much energy that wants to come into your life. The bigger the test, take it as a compliment. It's the bigger the energy that's trying to be revealed. You have the power, especially with this wisdom, to reveal more light, more miracles in one day than most people would in a lifetime.

26:02David Ghiyam:Because you're rising above your five senses. you're rising above your fears. You see the bigger picture. You know that everything is happening and it's happening as a test for your soul. Nothing is personal. No one's trying to hurt you. No one's against you. No one's trying to take anything from you. It feels that way. Because there's some trauma from past life. But it's actually not happening. And when you are whole and you are complete inside, which you are, you see the whole picture. You'll be granted access. You'll see everything and it's all going to make sense. But you're not allowed to see it yet until you choose certainty beyond logic.

26:39David Ghiyam:So you choose being whole. Let's do a mantra together to close this out. Creator,

26:50David Ghiyam:give me the strength and consciousness to know that everything is coming from you and it is good. and everything is helping me elevate my consciousness and expand my vessel for miracles. All the pressure that I feel right now is really just the light of the creator trying to come in. I'm not going to be stubborn. I'm not going to block it anymore. I want to let all the light in. I'm going to remove the limitations of my mind and the limited belief systems that I have, that I've been holding onto for lifetimes, I'm going to realize that it's okay to be happy. It's okay to be successful. It's okay to have a fulfilling life.

27:41David Ghiyam:It's okay to have nice things. It's my birthright, and it's okay to be loved and to be able to give somebody else love. In fact, it's quite simple. It's very easy to receive all those things. It's also very easy to give them. I don't have to suffer to be happy. I don't have to suffer to earn anything. I just need to make a choice to be like the light. That's actually how I earn everything. By just choosing to be like the light. It's the hardest choice anyone can ever make. I no longer subscribe to pay for the money. pain, a lot of pain in my life. I no longer, and I surrender this thought that I need to pay a price for things I've done in the past.
