My Thoughts On Twitter, 4/29/18

Dr Michael Laitman Twitter
Rotten thoughts infiltrated the brain—
And the intention went sour.

The Creator became concealed…
#kabbalah #zohar #quoteoftheday

We’re created to attain the wisdom of Kabbalah
Believe it or not
Or better yet—check for yourself!

That’s how The Book of Zohar was written:
They almost killed each other,
But that Book is there for all time

#KabbalahWisdom_ML
Our correct thoughts and desires, the connection between us that affects us—this is the surrounding light, OM.
What you feel and desire is the animal’s demands, while everything related to your human qualities is in others’ desires.

It’s no secret that the #media thrives on generating hysteria by amplifying celebrities’ insignificant comments into wildfires of public opinion.
#NataliePortman

It happens in stages: One reaches despair in the realization of his egoistic plans. Through failures and Kabbalah study, he gradually sees that fulfillment is possible by caring for others, bestowal for the sake of reception. Fulfillment can come by thinking of friends, Creator.

From birth, we don’t need the Creator. We build the world with our ego. We put all of nature’s forces to our service. Religions also developed by using the “upper force” for ego’s sake.
Kabbalah: revealing the Creator only in unity of people for the sake of others or the Creator

Mutual guarantee—the law of an integral system’s existence. Connection of its parts, from one degree to the next, along 125 degrees, becomes more and more complex. But the work starts by us accepting the principle of unity in HaVaYaH in mutual guarantee
#SpiritualWork #Kabbalah

The created desire (Soul) is corrected from light desires to heavy ones, forming generations. The first generations attained light (Torah) easily. We, being greater egoists, attain smaller light with greater difficulty, but a huge light shines from us in the forefathers’ desires.

Uniting above the differences
We attain Truth—unity
Above Lies—fragmentation

That’s how we attain
The Creator’s plan
And connection between action and sensation.

Starting A New Page

laitman_600.04Question: Is the quality of mercy, the demonstration of kindness and caring, states associated with the presence or absence of a soul?

Answer: Neither mercy nor cruelty have any association with the soul. It is simply ordinary earthly egoism.

Comment: This is not easily understood by a person…

Answer: If we want to figure something out, we must reject all of our pre-existing conceptions and start with a new page.

This is how it happens in all the sciences, in everything. If I have some kind of a preconceived notion, even more so when it relates to an area in which I have no competency and I could be drawn into a confusion that could last my entire life, then I must first annul myself and only then start to study and understand.

Everything Is Under Control

Laitman_524.01Question: If Kabbalah, its Light, develops strong egoism within a person and between us, is there a chance that this process might get out of control and destroy the people or the group with a wave of built-up egoism, leaving only hatred, malice, and disappointment behind?

Answer: Naturally, strong hatred, malice, and disappointment will begin to increase. But usually, it is manifested to the degree that we can counter it in order to progress us in the middle line.

Therefore, among students in each group, there will be contradictions, misunderstandings, and hatred, like with the students of Rabbi Shimon who wrote The Book of Zohar. Nonetheless, this process will not get out of control because everything is given in its proper measure. Every situation that arises can be solved or it would not have been given. Everything is done according to the concept: “Do not place obstacles before a blind man.”

New Life 26 – Building A Relationship Above The Character Of The Couple

New Life 26 – Building A Relationship Above The Character Of The Couple
Dr. Michael Laitman in conversation with Oren Levi and Nitzah Mazoz

Heartfelt relationships can transform the world into a glorious place. How can the individual and the society be educated with a positive and loving approach, and what will be the benefit from this? How does a woman emerge from the sensation of loneliness that increases after giving birth to children, and how will warmth and love be awakened between her and her husband?
