Question: Can a person live normally and develop spiritually if he does not feel loved by other people?

Answer: A person must develop in order to reveal his spiritual potential. It is a pity that life goes by in vain. Therefore, he does not need to pay much attention to anything. If he is given the opportunity to study within the framework of our organization, the opportunity to develop his spiritual qualities, then everything else depends on him.

Nothing else is needed. In this, he does not depend on anyone. He can even remain alone in front of his computer if there is no one around him. It is desirable, of course, that he has friends, a group, but if he does not, then virtual connection is sufficient for him to correct his egoism. To correct means to counterbalance his ego with the opposite quality, and based on the contrast between them to attain the Creator.

He will reveal the love that fills the whole universe. After all, a person who begins to deeply engage in Kabbalah sometimes receives such a state when love that fills the whole world is revealed to him. But then this state disappears, and after a while, he must attain this state by himself.

All the states that we undergo in the spiritual work are forms of our connection with the Creator; each time they are different. Although it seems to us that we are at work or with family, at home or on the street, going or flying somewhere—all this is our imagination at play.

In reality, these are depictions of our connection with the Creator, which take on different forms of external circumstances. There is nothing other than that!

Therefore, all my work is to determine the true state: to understand that I am in connection with the Creator and that I must discover Him as the first, the one who creates this state for me, and the last, as I have to reach the state of “None else besides Him.”

I have to determine that He really assembled this state for me, He organized it and gave it to me so that based on all the currently available facts, to the extent of the breaking that is revealed in me, I would establish that everything comes from Him, starting with the preparation and ending with the state where I connect with the Creator, to the extent possible at the moment.

This is our work.

Torah, Exodus 23:31: And I will make your boundary from the Red Sea to the sea of the Philistines, and from the desert to the river, for I will deliver the inhabitants of the land into your hands, and you shall drive them out from before you.

The land of Israel, in principle, is not big, that is, the egoistic desire of man is very small. But at spiritual levels, it gradually grows. When a person ascends from a small spiritual level to a higher and higher one, he reveals the whole world.

This is not our universe, which in itself does not represent a serious spiritual volume; it is simply a zero; it does not exist. In the true world where we really are, it does not exist. It is like our reflection.

We do not know and do not see ourselves. It is as if we are sleeping now, living our material life in a dream. In this dream, we are given the beginning of the spiritual work, which helps us to awaken.

If we wake up with its help, that is, enter the spiritual world, we see that everything that was inside us before is just an illusion. We had all kinds of brain fluctuations and we pictured everything in our imagination. And now we are real, spiritual.

Therefore, material life with respect to the spiritual is like a dream. After all, we do nothing, we do not perform any material actions, and even the desires that we allegedly use are not desires—they are nothing.

But as soon as you wake up, that is, as soon as you are born spiritually, you understand that everything that occurred earlier was a dream.

Now the question arises: if a person awakens from sleep and begins to live in a spiritual volume, in another dimension, how does he, while performing some actions, suddenly appear in this dream and begin to help others exit it? How does he plunge into this? In other words, he has reached a certain spiritual level and is told: “You must be in the dream with those who are still in it.”

Question: That is, a Kabbalist, like a stalker, is sent to awaken humanity from sleep and lead it into a new state and does this work?

Answer: Of course! In spirituality, you are shown this necessity and it becomes yours.

New Life #419 – Being In A Good Connection With Everyone
Dr. Michael Laitman in conversation with Oren Levi and Yael Leshed-Harel

Summary

We can build a positive connection with everyone on Earth through the power of bestowal. We start with one small circle of around ten friends who learn to relate to each other as “one person with one heart.” This means each friend feels what the other friends are missing and fulfills their desires. Then, each of the original ten friends can develop additional circles with new people. All of the circles connect like gears and we end up having good relationships with everyone!
