When Will Our Reincarnations End?

Laitman_712_03Question: If we die without crossing the Machsom, are we born again and again develop (or don’t develop) the point in the heart.

When such special souls like Baal HaSulam and ARI were born again, were they living in both the spiritual and material worlds from the moment of birth, or did they have to cross the Machsom again? And what about people like us?

Will the whole chain of reincarnations end when my friends and I begin to feel the Creator?

Answer: It will happen when you are higher than them and your main desire is to bring the Creator contentment.

How Many People Will Remain On Earth?

laitman_944Question: If the soul of Adam HaRishon (the First Man) was shattered into 600,000 parts, does this mean that eventually 600,000 people must remain on the face of the Earth at the time of correction?

Why must we develop the wisdom of Kabbalah if, according to the Torah, everything has already been determined regarding the total number in the population?

Answer: I have already written about this more than once, as it is said in all the original books on the wisdom of Kabbalah, in spirituality, quantity doesn’t matter. It is only the intensity of the correction of egoism into the characteristic of bestowal.

The full completion is called 600,000. There is no meaning to the number of people in the world because people’s bodies don’t exist in the spiritual world. What exists there are only desires that are united into a common desire for the Creator.

Why Does The Creator Punishes Us?

laitman_527_03Question from Facebook: If the Creator manages everything, why should a person be punished? After all, he has no freedom in his actions.

Answer: If the Creator manages everything, we apparently don’t have anything to do. He will think of everything and we could lie down as comfortably as possible and wait and see what happens later. But we were given egoism, which opposes the Creator. We need to change it so it will resemble Him.

That is our work. If we involve ourselves with that, we will get a good response from the Creator. And if not, then we receive punishment from Him, which forces us to. That is the entire management system.

The Creator leads us to understand where we are, what works, what influences us, and what is required of us. But we also, each one of us, must work together with Him as partners – He and I. So we must imagine we are facing the Creator and He is influencing us by stimulating our thoughts and movements.

Everything that we say, think, and feel comes from Him.

But He also requires a particular response from us. Even though He is also the one who summons the response, we must understand this and connect with it. The result will be that we will be in adhesion with Him. We must constantly live in adhesion with Him.

Then new states will be revealed in our lives and we will see how life becomes more calm, comfortable, balanced, and secure. The only thing we need is to come into direct contact with the Creator. This is something we can do.

On The Level Of The Upper Source

Laitman_632_4Question: Given that the Light passes through the letters should we weigh every word we use when communicating with others so we match our attributes and feelings?

Answer: Of course. If we spoke on that level, I could say a few words to you and when you heard what I said, you could immediately feel what I wanted to say to you in the spiritual world. I would connect to the same source from which I conveyed to you a written or oral message, for example, which stems from that source.

By connecting to that source, you could perceive my exact perception of that source and we would both share the same feeling. This is called equivalence of form of properties.

This is actually how we should write, speak with each other, and connect to each other. And in the same manner, we should connect with the Creator.

Illusion And Reality According To Kabbalah

laitman_222_0Question: What is “illusion” and what is “reality” as defined in the wisdom of Kabbalah?

Answer:  An illusion is anything that doesn’t resemble the Creator. And reality is any part of the Creator I perceive. That is, it is an immense field, which I correctly perceive to the degree of my similarity to it. This field is perceived by me as the Creator and it is not an illusion but the truth.

The true reality – Upper Light or the Creator – is found at absolute rest. But our perception of this reality can change. The change depends on correction. If a person completely corrects himself, then nothing changes in his perception any more.

Everything is measured only relative to a person.
