My Thoughts On Twitter 6/3/18

Dr Michael Laitman Twitter

“How do I stop enjoying?”—Don’t even think about stopping—this is our nature. We must only replace the source of pleasure—instead of enjoying inside the ego, enjoy fulfilling the Creator. But this change happens under the influence of OM [Ohr Makif]
#Spiritualwork_ML #Kabbalah

Spiritual work is gradually receiving less and less in the will to enjoy. Imagine that you won’t receive or attain anything in your ego. Mentally equate yourself to zero. Let your soul merge with the Creator. Increase the will to bestow to Him, doing what the Creator wants.

We’re correcting the common soul of Adam, starting with creating the foundation. It’s hard work since we see excavations of our ego. Only by rising above it do we see our work. Others will finish the construction after us. But laying the foundation is the most important part!

Our generation is restoring the structure of the one common soul, Adam, in the state of the final correction. It’s the most important work ever done on earth. We have to make efforts and the Creator will finish for us. Let’s build a place for His revelation and delight Him.

I want all of my work’s results to be only in the Creator, and I won’t receive anything besides the energy to work, like a car being filled up with fuel, while all my work is for the Creator’s benefit—to such an extent that He won’t even find out about my existence.
#Kabbalah

A person who works correctly is always full of joy since he has the right connection with the Creator in every state. He is always being governed by the Creator and by being aware of this he already gives pleasure to the Creator, and is therefore happy.

Blitz Of Kabbalah Tips – 11/26/17

laitman_571.08Question: What principles will determine the success of realizing my point in the heart?

Answer: There is only one principle: through the group to the Creator. You can use all other Kabbalistic principles only to the extent that you will climb the spiritual steps. Then you will see how they can apply to you.

Question: According to the law the “general and particular are equal,” are all the Kabbalistic principles universal for all the levels of the worlds?

Answer: Yes, because the difference between the levels is only according to the intensity of and connection between the forces of bestowal and reception.

Question: What is work according to the wisdom of Kabbalah? Who is the employer, who is the employee, and what is the essence of the work?

Answer: Work in Kabbalah is the work on my egoism, on its correction. The Creator, the upper Light, is what corrects egoism. A person is called “a worker” because he asks for this correction from the Creator. Only according to a request, a prayer, raising MAN, does the Light, which corrects an egoistic intention to an altruistic intention, descend from above.

Question: What is the correct relationship with the environment?

Answer: By “environment,” we mean the group through which we attain connection with the Creator. The correct relationship with the environment is the same relationship that must exist between the person and the Creator.

Question: What does manipulation of the ego mean?

Answer: Manipulation of the ego does not mean manipulating the ego itself, but the intention above it. In other words, I use the ego only to the degree that I have an intention to use it for the sake of bestowal, for the creation of a connection.

Are We Responsible For Our Own Thoughts?

Laitman_143Question: Is a person responsible for his thoughts?

Answer: If before himself and the Creator, then yes. If before the rest of humanity, then no, because until thoughts turn into actions, we do not have problems with other people. But in principle, our thoughts are our actions.

Questions: And what if a person is horrified by his thoughts?

Answer: That is not important; they are his thoughts and he must correct them.

New Life 993 – Memory From Childhood To Old Age

New Life 993 – Memory From Childhood To Old Age
Dr. Michael Laitman in conversation with Oren Levi and Yael Leshed-Harel

The collective memory exists within the higher system of nature and is available to us if we connect our memories with others. We do not remember the first years of our lives because we did not yet interact with the environment. We have memory problems in old age because the desire to receive is saturated. Kabbalists don’t forget or experience death because they constantly become renewed.
