“Secrets Of The Health Of The Social Organism”

Dr. Michael LaitmanIn the News (world.crisis.ru): “The chairman of the All-Russian Professional Psychotherapeutic League Viktor Makarov noted that among presenting problems, as well as traditional addictions, in leading position of patients demands for help right now are: anxiety, panic attacks, insecurity, and fears about the future. And the same fears about the future, more and more are coming to the fore in Europe. Until recently, for residents of developed countries if they had insurance, fear of the future was unknown. Now, financial security cannot protect against problems associated with the destruction of healthy human values. …

He [Alexander Yuriev – Doctor of Psychology, professor of Russian politics, head of the Laboratory for Scientific policy advice of the St. Petersburg State University] noted that the post-global changes lead to significant changes in consciousness and behavior of modern man. A socially and politically injured person believes that the main condition for survival and success is the ability to show no qualities that could provoke aggression in friends or rivals. A traumatized person tries to hide his emotions: no surprise, no indignation, no joy, no sorrow, no superfluous words. He believes that only complete impermeability gives him peace of mind, security and success. Behind this is the experience of its sharp polarization of society into enemies and friends… . But this tactic of conduct is useless in times of post-globalization: man is ‘defined’ by sites he searches on the Internet, by his circle of friends, by his party, with whom he is connected, and his routes of its transportation around the city, the country, the world – he lives in a ‘glass house.’…

A.I.Yurev said that fear is displaced by only one – the meaning of life, and the main meaning of life – it’s love. He stressed the direct relationship between of all these factors, the force of vitality, the meaning of life, a person’s goals and values. …

“Numerous problems of the planet suggest that we need a fundamentally different platform, a different outlook on life and approach to psychology. …

“Just as all physical illnesses appear as metabolic disorders, as well, all social problems, mental illnesses are a consequence of a violation of a healthy relationship between human beings. It is the restoration of the right relationships and values that the work of psychotherapists should be aimed. For this, you need a precise definition of spirituality.

Spirituality is a state of the inner unity of man with the surrounding world, a sense of (or at least an understanding) of the interconnectedness of all created beings as the children and parts of the Most High, the one whole. Spirituality gives the state and feeling of happiness (I – part of the Almighty living in harmony with Him). When this harmony is broken, there is an infinite number of different kinds of problems and diseases. Mental health is the foundation of the physical, psychological, and social health. …

The social body is sick when the healthy relationships between human beings are destroyed, when the mental health of the people is broken. This can be compared with the liver, kidneys, stomach ceasing to cooperate with each other. Conversely, society is healthy and strong when there is high spirituality – when one takes care of the interests of others as their own interests. …

“Every year, more and more scientists are coming to the conclusion that the world that surrounds us is based on the holographic principle. …

“The holographic principle of the universe means that every part of the universe at any given time contains complete information about all that exists. Scientists have found that every cell in the body at any given time has complete information about the entire body – so that from any single cell the full body could grow. …

“And this connection exists between everything that exists. All humans and animals.

We are all part of a living unity, even though the physical eye mistakenly consider themselves separated from each other.

The research results of many modern scholars suggest that we are all part and parcel of a single energy-system, which is the right thing to call God.

The essence of all religions, all spiritual exercises is to transform egotism (selfishness) in love. Egocentrism (selfishness, self-interest) – is to take care of their welfare. Love – a concern for the welfare of others. …

We are part of a living unity, we are always connected with each other as part of one organism with the name of God, even though the physical eyes perceive ourselves as separate. When you cause suffering to others, you indirectly cause suffering to yourself – as a part of the body, which causes damage to another part, hurts itself.

“People can easily maintain human relationships with each other as long as they at least theoretically know that they are eternal, that they are the soul, not the body. Even if they do not devote themselves seriously to God, if it committed to only some – for example, older family members. But they have knowledge of his purpose and God. …

Socialism is good only if there is God. We need to get return to this now… .

The spirit of consumerism is a disease of the soul, a disease of society. The health of the soul is in finding happiness in serving others. … A consumer society is a society of unhappy people. …

“The body breaks down when the metabolism in the body breaks down. Metabolism in the social organism – is the relationships between people.

“A cell of the body communicates with the body not directly but through the cells that surround us. And we serve God, not directly, but through His particles that surround us.”

My Comment: The thinking man independently comes to the same results Kabbalah has been speaking about for thousands of years. But he will not be able to reveal the method of correction of humanity, only his corruption and what the desirable correction is. Because the correction occurs through the Upper Light, which is controlled only by those studying Kabbalah. And someone that does yet study Kabbalah cannot even understand the working principle of the Surrounding Light. The correction must be done first by the one who studies the method.
