The Management Of Israel And The Management Of The Nations Of The World

Midrash Rabba,” Parshat Balak: In the answer that Balak received from the sages of Midian they said, “This snake, Moses, suckled from our breast. A Midianite invited him into his home, gave his daughter to him for a wife and provided him with money. And after leaving the house of his father-in-law, Moses destroyed the Egyptian people. Do you want to know where the power of Moses and his disciples is? It is in their mouths. When they cry out to God, He fulfills all of their requests. Therefore defeat the Jews with their weapon, we advise you to call to Balaam, whose power of speech is not less than that of Moses.”

In the Torah [1] it is said that there was no prophet among the Jews who attained a level higher than Moses, and among the nations of the world, more than Balaam.

Between them, meaning between the positive and negative forces, there must be a balance. Otherwise, if you don’t begin to balance between one and the other, you cannot develop.

When you ascend the ladder of spiritual worlds, you constantly move from level to level, and in each of them the powers of right and left must be equal.

Question: Are you saying that the management of Israel must necessarily be compatible with the management of the nations of the world?

Answer: I am not talking about history and I don’t want to stand one physical or spiritual war against another or the management of one or the other because in the physical world, everyone is an egoist.

A person who ascends the spiritual levels walks on “two legs,” the right and left lines; his heart and mind rise higher and higher in the correct integration between them. This is because the system of higher management, the revelation and creation system of the Creator [2], consists of two opposing forces.

You will not discover, recognize, see, understand, or describe the Creator in any other way! You need to portray Him in front of you on your screen.

On our internal screen, we now apparently see the world that surrounds us. Actually we are looking inside of ourselves and the illusion appears to us as if we are seeing something in front of us. But in fact, the two opposing forces must draw the same image, the same system of management on our screen, the same thought of creation that is called the Creator.

All this is found in each one of us. And what is outside of us? We don’t know and don’t understand this.

That is, in normal spiritual advancement my left leg is Balaam, Balak, and the rest of the negative forces, and my right leg is the people of Israel, Moses, etc. And they are all opposed to each other and equal on every level. Precisely between them, when you completely lose the difference between the two systems, you can ascend.

The ascent is only made upward, according to whatever criterion is called “upward.” When there is no preference for one force or another, right and left must be equal! So what is the force? It is an invisible component called the middle third of Tifferet. That is where everything is concealed. It is above you!

When you reach the right opposition between the two systems, the two opposing forces, darkness and Light, then you begin to understand the thought of creation of the Creator, that which existed before the creation of the world is found above this. In other words, you need to rise to that point from which these two systems of forces were created, the thought of creation.

There are also two parts in the thought of creation even though the system is much greater. One part is the program that descends downward, creating the two systems of forces and the spiritual worlds. First there is the system of management, after that our world, and then on the level of our world, nature: the still, vegetative, animate, and human.

The second part is the higher thought of creation that is found above the program and system of management, through which everything is realized in our world.

And beyond this, everything is concealed. In the meantime we have no possibility of discovering what is found above the thought of creation. We feel something, but cannot perceive it. We have not yet developed the appropriate Kelim for this.

So the Kabbalists say that everything is hidden, absolutely obscure there. These states are called GAR de Atzilut. GAR is the upper three Sefirot of the world of Atzilut, where the entire connection with our world is concealed.

There are completely different characteristics there that we cannot attain until after the complete end of correction, in the unification of all the systems, where there is no difference between the right and left lines, between good and evil.

When we rise above this, the foundation for understanding this secret level begins to be created within us. It is a secret to us because we are not able to ascertain it today; we lack the resolution for perceiving it. But in any case, everything that exists beyond time and space, beyond our world, is found within the person.

So these two opposing forces are not revealed in our world in any form. That is, true egoism [3] and altruism are not at all what we see on the physical level.

They are discovered only in the internal resistance of people who ascend above them. For example, when a group of friends who want to rise spiritually gathers among the people of Israel, precisely then these characteristics appear in them.

The Torah, meaning the Light that works on those people who want to ascend, was written precisely for them. And therefore the only condition for ascent is to be “as one person with one heart,” meaning using egoism correctly.

And then we discover within us all the characters that are described in the Torah and everything that is written in it as forces on the path toward the best development.
