My Thoughts On Twitter, 2/23/18

Dr Michael Laitman Twitter

“Preface to the Book of #Zohar“: The cause of hatred toward Jews is that the Jews, as carriers of the method for mankind’s correction, don’t actualize it by “Love thy neighbor as thyself” and reveal the Creator, and thus they conceal happiness from the world. #AntiSemitism

Poll: The credibility of the #media in the world tends to zero. Followed by the sector of financial services. Concern for the rating pushes to attract the reader at any cost, which destroys the credibility of the media. Will a global, independent source of #information emerge?

How To Feel The Upper Light?

laitman_938.02Question: How do you feel the upper energy, the upper Light that a person evokes on himself? Let’s say, it is very hard to feel radiation, but still we invented devices we can measure it with. Besides, its consequences over time affect a person.

Answer: Radiation is the physical action of charged particles: electrons, protons, neutrons, gamma rays, and so on. They can be measured because they can affect some substrate.

However, in Kabbalah a person can feel the effect of the upper Light from inner changes. He suddenly begins to love his friends, unite with them, and in their connection they reveal the quality of bestowal and love called the Creator.

At the same time, everything does not go the way it seems to us, as if instead of the quality of reception we obtain the quality of bestowal, and instead of hatred, love. It is a whole new world.

Answers To Your Questions, Part 219

laitman_598Question: How do you and how do the people of Israel relate to the announcement that information about the lost family tree of the 12 tribes of Israel has appeared that is in accord with verses 7:4, 7:5, 7:6, 7:7, and 7:8 of “The Revelations of Saint John the Divine”?

Answer: The wisdom of Kabbalah doesn’t deal with digging into the past. Instead, it engages with the future.

Question: I am studying the Hebrew language. They told us there that the names of the Creator are expressed in a distorted form out of humility toward Him. “Yod, Key, Vav, Key” instead of, “Yod, Hey, Vav, Hey”, “Shakai” instead of “Shaddai.” I don’t understand and don’t feel the kind of humility that is intended.

Answer: This is accepted. It gives more respect to the higher power.

What Is The Limit Of Craving Wealth?

547.01Question: You say that the desire for wealth and knowledge is natural. How do we satisfy it? What is the measure, the limit, you should set for yourself?

Answer: The measure is only in transferring the upper Light through yourself to society.

Food, sex, and family are necessary desires that you must satisfy, otherwise you cannot exist. However, wealth, power, and knowledge are not physiological, but social desires.

Therefore, you can only develop them to the extent that, through them, you can be properly connected to the society, to your surroundings.

New Life #302 – Interrelationships In Nature, Part 2
Dr. Michael Laitman in conversation with Oren Levi and Nitzah Mazoz

Summary

Competition is leading human society into a total crisis. We are evolving toward mutual destruction rather than happiness based on connection. Our development is negative because the biggest egoist wins in today’s society. Only one can be “king” while the rest suffer pressures and stress. In the future, competition will be based on doing good for the whole society. We will learn how to use the ego and our free choice properly toward positive outcomes that benefit everyone.
