Everything You Are Asking For Is Too Small

David Gantt teaches that pain and pleasure are forces pushing your soul toward its highest purpose. He explains the Kabbalistic concept of shedding your "old vessel" (a reactive body) for a new one that can hold the Creator's limitless light, and outlines daily prayers and meditation to prepare for the soul's audit on September 11, 2026.
Chapters
Welcome everyone to David Gantt Podcast, where we talk about the energy of the week through a Kabbalistic framework, and we draw in the writings and wisdom of the sages thousands of years ago. Uh, one of the first things I want to talk about is the biggest window in time opportunity for each one of us to be able to Rewrite Our Destiny for the month of Virgo. It's a journey that I do with people from all around the world. We're expecting 50,000 people from virtually all walks of life, all backgrounds joining us. And so if you want, there's a link below, or you can go to my website davidkim.com to join us. It's a pay-what-feels-right journey. I will be doing 4 live webinars. I'll have an email sent to you every day with a short meditation and practice about that day's energy, uh, give you access to DVD, coaching, a lot of, lot of value, and, uh, it's really about bringing this wisdom in an accessible way to everyone, uh, in one of the most important times where we will be writing a new destiny. So what is the energy of this week? Well, one of the things that I know we're all thinking about is how do we reduce the amount of pain in our lives? Everyone is trying to run away from pain and move towards pleasure. That's what it says. It says that in our heart, there's these two forces that we're all engaging with: pain and pleasure. We want to run away from pain, and we want to pursue pleasure. Why does pain come to an individual? Pain never comes because you're being punished. Pain doesn't come because you've done something wrong, per se. Everything that happens is always a universal calculation of how to bring you to your highest destiny, your highest soul, which means the part of you that will be able to hold as many blessings as possible. See, the sages say that the goal of creation is that the Creator wants to give all of His beneficence to the souls, to the vessel. How does the Creator do that? Think of like a parent who wants to— actually, the analogy that the Zohar gives, which I have right here, the Book of the Zohar, it's written 2,000 years ago, is that a king is thinking, how will he be able to pass his kingdom to his son? And the greatest joy that the king can have is that the son will be ready, mature, responsible, and fit to be a king himself. Because now he can pass the kingdom on to his son. And that is the king's greatest pleasure. So what is the greatest pleasure, if I could say this word, for the Creator? To be able to pass His kingdom to you. To be able to pass your soulmate to you. To be able to pass great wealth to you and great wisdom. Great expansion to each one of us. But we have the free will. We are the only ones in control of creating the vessel for that. The, the king cannot force his son to be ready. The son must desire it on his own and go through the process to hold the kingship. And so all the pain that we go through in life is that the universal GPS is rerouting us constantly to our highest good. Now, what does that look like? How can we avoid pain? How can we be plugged into this supernal GPS without pain pushing us there? Number 1, and the gates are open this week to do this in the most expansive way. Each one of us must know that we cannot see the truth in every situation. We cannot see the truth about ourselves. We cannot see the truth in our partner. We cannot see the truth in whatever challenge you are going through. Whatever you are going through, you've already most likely labeled it as bad. This is not good. I want it to go away. I wish this wasn't happening. But the moment you label something as bad or negative, you've now shifted your vibration down. You've disconnected from the supernal GPS. And so pain and suffering must occur as the way to learn. We must know that whatever we are experiencing is only 1% of the real reality. You do not see the whole picture. And not only do you not see it, but that everything is good, because if you could see the whole picture, you would see that it is perfectly good. So this other 99% that you do not see, if it were to be revealed to you, then you would see the perfection in everything that is happening. And before we even continue, I want you to think about every part of your life right now, everything you're going through, the questions that you're having, the difficulties, the challenges, the pain, the withdrawal, the rejection, the criticism, the loss, the loss, the delays, and to put it all into this bucket that is called good. Because what are we desiring? We're all desiring to create what's called the endless vessel. The supernal vessel, the vessel that can hold all of the Creator's Light. The sages actually gave it a name. There's many names for it, but one of the names is called guf ban Av, guf ban Av. It means, like, it literally translates into the body of the father of the children. But it represents the corrected body. Because we have two bodies, actually. When our soul comes to this world, the soul is connected to the Light of the Creator. So the soul sees everything that is true. It has clear communication with the Creator. The problem is that we are born with the reactive body, the guf that is tainted, that is corrupted. So this body is mired in our trauma, in what we call our tikkun, our soul correction. So we see everything backwards. We see everything reversed. We think something is good for us when it's actually bad for us. We think something is bad for us when it's actually good for us. Our intuition is off. We end up making decisions that we regret later. Why would you ever make a decision that you regret later? I talk to people who have gone through divorce, and I often ask them, when did you know that you were going to get divorced? Do you know that 50% of the time the answer I get is, before the wedding, or on the day of the wedding, they saw it. Why did, why did their body not see it before? Why can't we have an aura around us that simply protects us from the people that aren't good for us to be in our lives? Why is it that we fall in love only to feel that we wasted our time? Not that there's even any such thing. Everything is guiding you, but what if you could skip over some of these limited destinies, some of these negative destinies? And that is exactly what we want to learn. How do we skip over a painful process? And first, it is right now to say out loud, "I do not see the whole picture. Creator, I desire You to show me." What is the absolute good? This is what we must pray for, the absolute good. See, because people are often asking for things in a very limited fashion. I want this, I want that, I want my problem to be solved here, I want my relationship to be fixed here, I want to draw, I hope this date goes well, I hope this business meeting goes well, there's this house that I really want, I hope I get the house. There's this pain I'm having in my leg, I hope the pain goes away. There are always these little desires we all have, which are very positive. It's all good to have these desires, but every day we must first pray for and ask for the ultimate good. And only the Creator sees the ultimate good. And the process that we're going through at this exact moment is to help us receive the ultimate good. Once you surrender and you let go. You can still have the desires that you have, but surrender how and when they will be fulfilled. And reach out to the Creator, desire the Creator, pray for the Creator to bring you the ultimate good. We do not even understand, like, if I ask you to write your dream list of everything that you want, write your dream list. It will be 1% of what the Creator actually wants to give you. Your list will always be limited compared to what the Creator wants to— I mean, you could write everything, everything that you could possibly want, it still will be a fraction of what the Creator wants to give you. The final days of the month of Leo, Leo is the most expansive of signs. It's the energy of the sun, it's the leader, it's the everything, it's the source of all light. We must let go of the old vessel, of the old guf, and connect the guf ban Av, the new vessel, the clean vessel, the expanded vessel. What does that mean? It's the version of you that has certainty, unconditional confidence and certainty in yourself, regardless of what's happening. And do you know where we get tested the most in our lives? It's the areas where we have attached our identity too much to. If I don't have this, I will be sad. If you think you will be sad if you don't have something, then you will be tested in that area. You will be toyed with in that area. It will be taken from you and given to you and taken from you and given to you. If money is your identity, if a relationship is your identity, if your business is your identity, and if it's taken away, do you have unconditional confidence, certainty? Do you believe that no matter what, you are okay? Do you believe that no matter what, you are still the Light of the Creator, an image of the Light of the Creator? Or do you have a deep attachment to this thing, to this position, to what other people say, to what other people think, to what your parents think? Do you still need other people's approval? Because any area of your life that you need someone else's approval, you will be tested in. Something will be taken away. You will have a bad hair day. You will have a bad makeup day. You will have a bad skin day. You will choke up. You will fail at what you are doing for a moment, just to go through the test of what it feels like not to have people approve of you, just so that you can say, I still love myself, and I still have unconditional confidence in myself. So then the test never has to come back again. Especially before the first and second day of Libra, which is the new year of the soul, the birthday of the soul. It is the birth of Adam and Eve. It is also called Rosh Hashanah in the the Hebrew calendar, spiritual calendar, as the Jewish religion celebrates as well, but we know that this existed since the time of Abraham for all religions, actually. All religions receive this infusion of Light on the first and second day of Libra, especially as we approach those days. What vessel are you coming into this new year with? What vessel? If people want to know when it is happening in the Gregorian calendar, it is in the year 2026. It's happening on the night of September 11th. That's when the new energy starts. That's when your soul gets audited. The angels in the upper worlds look at your soul, look at the vessel that you're coming in with. It's like your spiritual clothing. And if you're coming in with a limited vessel, you're gonna have a limited year. If you're coming in with negative belief systems about suffering, negative belief systems about, about what you can and cannot receive, negative belief systems about, about what you deserve or don't deserve, then that's going to be your coming year. That's the way it's going to be written. And so we must completely obliterate the old version of us. And you might even be going through that right now. You might be going through certain painful challenges and situations and loss and breakups. A lot of breakups during this time. A lot of relationships are ending. And if it's ending, it's because the Creator is trying to bring something higher into your life and it's breaking your old vessel. So don't hold on, obviously we can appreciate the memories, we can appreciate the person we were, but you don't have to hold on to the old you because the Creator wants to give you gufban of the new vessel that can hold a new love, a new financial blessing, new wisdom, new portals of wisdom will be open to you. Do you know how big your soul is? We should have the ability to heal people, we should be like the sages used to be able to heal, just put their hands on people and heal, used to be able to look at the forehead of a person and know everything about their past, their present, and their future. They used to have prophecy. The higher souls could even take someone whose heart had stopped, who experienced clinical death, and simply bring them back to life. That was the power that people once had. This is how big your soul is. We often think small. We have goals, "Oh, my goal is I hope I make an extra $10,000 a month. My goal is to work on the culture of my company. The goal is these little goals." These are wonderful goals. I have the same. Goals. You must have goals for everything. But what about the big goal? The absolute good? The everything that the Creator wants to give you? Are you ready for that? Are you prepared for that? Are you asking for that? Did you even know that you deserve that? Did you know that the Creator sheds two— it says that the Creator sheds two tears every day, and it is the pain that the Creator has that He cannot give you the absolute good. He has to hold back. Like the pain of a parent is, can't give everything to their child. The child's not ready to receive it. The prince isn't ready to receive the kingship. It's painful for the king. It says that these two tears that the Creator sheds penetrates the curtains of the upper worlds and comes into our world and enlightens the world. But ultimately, the Creator wants to give us more than His two tears. G-d wants to give you everything. So we must let go. We must be open to letting go. Letting go doesn't even mean you need to let go of that physical thing. A person doesn't need to let go of all their money. It says it is, if a person decides to be charitable and wants to give away 100% of their money, actually it is written that it is a negative thing to give away 100% of your money. What you must meditate on is you are willing to give away 100% of your money. You are willing to detach from everything. You need nothing and you want everything. Want everything means wanting the Light, wanting all that the Creator wants to give you, the absolute good. So don't get stuck in the weeds. Don't get stuck in the minutiae, mediocrity. Sometimes we're so focused on the mediocrity, trying to be right, we're trying to prove our point, we're trying to work on this little project and the Creator is stalling it The universe is stalling it and sabotaging it often because it is about thinking bigger, wanting all of it. There is a famous story in the Bible about Jacob, which represents the Light of the Creator, and Esav, that represents the negative side. And when Esav is asked, "What do you want?" He uses the word rav, which means more. When Jacob is asked what does he want, he says the word kol, which means all. Whenever you want more in life, the negative side will bring you chaos. Whenever you want all in life, this is affinity of form with the Light of the Creator. Do not ask for more, ask for all. Some people are afraid to have it all. Some people are afraid to have a great love. Like a wonderful relationship. So they subconsciously sabotage good relationships and they call in mediocre ones. Why? Could be many reasons. If you don't know your soul correction, your tikkun, it's going to explain why you would do something like that. Part of you believes that if you attract in a great soul, then you have to become a great soul. So the pressure's on. Part of you has a hard time receiving something great because you're so afraid of loss. So you'd rather not receive something great because you might lose something great. So always attract things that are safe to lose. Some people must always be in control. So if you attract someone great, you can't control them. So you'd rather attract someone mediocre, a B-player, B-energy, beta energy, because at least you're always in control. But then you're always complaining that he or she is beta. Limitations of our soul. So then what ends up happening is we always just want more and more and more and more, and it's never satisfying. Anybody who's looking for more will never be satisfied, and the negative side will take all their blessings away. But a person who wants rav— I'm sorry, a person who wants kol, wants it all, this person, always the Creator will give them everything, whatever they need, when they need it, as they need it. You may have less than your friend, but you have it all. I remember for the first 10 years of my— not even 10, I would say for 16 years of my spiritual journey, starting when I was 15 years old, I had nothing. I hadn't— I didn't have a bank account. I didn't have credit cards. I had no money to my name. I had no credit. I had no net worth. I had nothing. But I was traveling the world for a nonprofit organization teaching this wisdom, 8 to 10 hours of coaching a day for charity. Did that for more than 16 years, but never had any money. But I felt I had everything. Wherever I went, I felt I was the most powerful person in the room. I would be in the room with billionaires, with celebrities, with politicians. And I was at that time in my mid-20s. But I knew what my teachers gave me, what I was able to connect to through this wisdom and what the sages gave, it made me more powerful than anyone who had any amount of money. And I do not mean powerful as in better than. I mean, I knew I had whatever I needed. Even if I didn't have a credit card to buy what I wanted, I knew whatever I needed would appear before me. Did this for 17 years before I started my own business. And ironically, when I started to have my own things, I never felt as whole, actually, as when I had nothing. It's an interesting thought. That doesn't mean a person should have nothing. The real test is to have everything, but to be willing to let go of everything at the same time. It's quite easy to have this consciousness when you have nothing. That's the ultimate, to have both the physical and the spiritual. Some people have a major correction with that. They think they can't be both spiritual and have physical wealth, have love, have everything, have nice things. They believe it's not possible. In fact, that's what the Creator wants to give you. Both. Both. It's all part of the old vessel that we must shed. The old you must go. Whatever is coming to your mind right now about the old you, that, don't be afraid to let it go. Don't be afraid to break. Don't be afraid to just break down. There's things that are breaking you, let it break you. I met someone, I was at a farmer's market not too long ago, this man, probably in his 50s, came to me and said, I listened to this podcast and I need to ask for your advice. I said, what is it? He said, I'm going through the most difficult time of my life. My business is falling, my, my, this is, everything is falling apart. It's like, how do I, what do I do to turn it around? I said, that's the first problem. You're trying to turn it around. I want you to fully break. Creator is trying to break and shatter the old you to create the new you. Stop trying to hold on to the old you. So he says, what, I'm just supposed to meditate to lose it all? I said, let go. Just lean into the pain. Let the universe do its thing. He's like, what, so I shouldn't try to stop it? I said, it's not that you shouldn't try to stop it. It's that in your mind, you're so afraid of hitting the bottom. But get comfortable with the bottom. Then you don't need to hit the bottom. Tell the universe, fine, take it all. Someone's threatening to take something from you. Take it. Take it all. I know that the light is within me. I know that I can regenerate anything. In fact, it's an illusion that it left in the first place. It's very deep. It's a very deep concept. So each one of us— so much more we can talk about with this, but I want to leave you with that. Open your eyes, your heart to kol, all. Gufban Av, a new body, a new vessel. And whatever is trying to break the old you, allow it to break. Let's do a meditation. I want you to close your eyes, and I want you to visualize the version of you that is completely new. And has cast away everything that once served you but is no longer serving you. All the old energy, old habits, old relationships— allow them all to be rejuvenated. The way we draw this rejuvenation into our lives, this new vessel, is by letting go and being willing to let go of everything right now. Who would you be if you had no attachment to anything but still were able to receive endlessly? From the Creator? Do you know what the Creator wants to give you? Do you see visions? Do you get inklings? What does your intuition tell you? Forget about your fears for a moment. Forget about the statistics and the physical reasons why you think you can't have something. Forget about your age. Forget about the way you look, your status. Just let it all go for a moment. If everything was possible, what do you feel in your heart and soul that you were meant to receive? Open yourself. Open yourself. I don't want you to feel your pain. I want you to feel the pain that the Creator has, because he wants to give you everything. The universe wants to give you. That's the pain that you have to feel. How do you remove the universe's pain? By becoming a vessel that can receive, that can appreciate what it receives. That can hold what it receives, that never gets tired of what it receives. Who are you? Can you be this person? We all say we can appreciate something when we're about to get it. Can you also focus on appreciating what you have right now? The light already gave you so much, so many blessings. The fact that you can live each day, you can walk, that you can talk and communicate. If you have children, if you have a place to live, if you have access to friendship. You have love in your life and you have people who love you. Before you move on to wanting more, first feel that you have it all. You already have it all. And then prepare yourself to receive all. Put your fingers together and rub them like this. I want you to feel the energy in your hands. I want you to feel the endless consciousness, the angels, the vibration of your own body, your aura. You're so powerful. These hands when fully connected to its light, can heal, can create miracles. You can simply, like, by moving your hand, create miracles for people, can remove pain. This is your power, but only when we are channels, only when we let go of the stubbornness of the ego, of the need for approval, the need for control, and the need for things to happen a certain way, and our limited beliefs about all of that. Visualize all that negativity melting away into the ocean. Just let it all go and open yourself to the beautiful life that the Creator wants to give you.
