A Force Field Of Love And Goodness

Dr. Michael LaitmanShamati #1: It is written, “there is none else besides Him.” This means that there is no other force in the world that has the ability to do anything against Him.

There is a single Upper Force that governs the whole universe. And what man sees, that there are things in the world that deny the Higher Household…in other words, it seems to us that there are many opposing forces operating in the world that overpower one another, and that it is possible to receive help from one force in order to oppose another, using this “multiple power.” …the reason is that this is His will.

This one force, which has total power, wants us to become so confused by the multitude of forces, desires, kinds, and qualities, so that from within this mess we would start to gather the only existing force ourselves. It seems to us that this life is multi-faceted and complex, but we have to bring it to one desire, one goal, and one operating force.

It’s similar to how we teach children by giving them exercises where they have to assemble and fix something that’s broken, not ready, or incomplete. They have to correct it and complete it on their own. That is how we have to act at every moment of our lives.

It seems to us that it is very difficult to work hard in life and to make efforts, but if we did just one thing behind all of these material actions — if we completed the Upper Force in order to see that He is the only one who acts, then we would not need to do anything else!

We work in the material world to produce many things, but in reality we are simply running away from solving the only, tiny problem: to discern that behind all of these problems, details, thoughts, and discernments, there is one force standing opposite me. There is me and Him, and between us He has built all of these decorations that confuse me so that through them I would find my way to Him and feel that they come to me form Him! This is called clarification.

If at every moment of my life, no matter what I do, whether I am talking to someone, someone is attacking me, or on the contrary, someone approaches me in a good way, or something happens to my health, money, or status at work or in my family, if behind every occurrence I try to reveal the Creator, then I will begin to unite everything into one net as if making an embroidery. I will begin seeing and revealing this system of connections: His program and attitude to me through all of these people and all the possible life situations.

I will suddenly understand what happened in the past and will start to see what He will do to me in the future. He slightly lets me see what needs to be done with various problems, teaching me like a small child. I have to accept this life only as a quest for Him — to look for Him and find Him! After all the efforts I make, I should always see that there is none else besides Him and everything comes only from Him!

This has to happen to such a degree that when I am in the most difficult and unpleasant situation, when I reach total despair and exhaustion, and I am completely unable to connect it to the Creator, I nevertheless begin to aim it toward the Creator and to look for the reason why this has come to me in this form and where it came from. Then I reveal how wonderful it is….

I begin to put all of the components of the general picture in order and suddenly discover that He has set everything up only for my own good to help me reach newer revelations! Eventually I reveal that everything around me is one interconnected net of His attitude toward me through the entire universe and through all the Upper Worlds. I am surrounded by a force field of His love, and I am at its center. This is called the revelation of the Creator to the creatures.

  1. And now begins the burden of how exactly to share this with others. In every moment, not just in the physical group when the group is seemingly “together”.

    For anyone who sees it, what does it mean to you? The forms the Creator takes are numerous. The multiplicities are staggering. And yet…

    With all of the complexities, it all boils down to, “There is None Else Besides Him.”

    How many of us truly yearn for this simplicity within the complex!

    Can you provide us with insight on simply living for us simple minds. 🙂 🙂 🙂

  2. Hi rav,

    I dont want this to stop. The ultimate desperation would be for this to stop. I call it this because it’s this. Time to show some courage and shape this life.
    I understand now: the sin that becomes merit. Incredible. All of this is a fairy tale. Cant find no other word. Yes: wondrous. And when I see how ignorant I am it is even more wondrous.

    I feel less and less that this force is opposite to me, rather It is helping. It is there always. I can not pretend the contrary but can still continue to pretend “Well you know, I did not notice, why not do something else now..” by some sort of unfounded laziness.

    Kol tuv rav, Kol tuv the group, Kol tuv Kol

  3. Sometimes it’s very difficult to remember all of our problems are sent for our benefit,, especially when we’re in the middle of them. Thanks for sharing this. The reminders are always helpful.
