My Thoughts On Twitter 5/22/18

Dr Michael Laitman Twitter

Two conditions are necessary for the reception of the Torah:
– to clarify that the ego gives neither the chance nor the strength to escape its authority toward unity, revelation of the upper force, bestowal.
– we desperately want to achieve all this.
#Jewish #Israel #ego #Kabbalah

We come to the reception of the #Torah when we genuinely need the desires to bestow, and desire nothing but this.
For this we’re ready to “wander the desert, cross the Final Sea, go through all the Egyptian plagues”—as long we acquire the desires to bestow in the end.
#Jewish

The #Torah brings us to the Giver of the Torah, and this is most important as it opens a new world to man.
There’s no other path to reveal the Creator than by uniting broken desires, clarifying the form of connection and adhesion with the Creator.
#Israeli #Spiritualwork_ML

The #Torah is the upper light that clothes in our desires, which are deliberately broken, since the light’s advantage stems from darkness. The light is revealed due to the desires’ correction, to the extent that we reveal it in the contrast of qualities.
#Kabbalah #Wisdom

Man’s objective is to restore the connection between distant, broken parts, and recreate the construction made by the Creator.

Like a computer program, the #Torah organizes the development process so as to bring us to the goal. By agreeing with the great Programmer, we connect to and help with His work.

3. The #Torah is upper light, vested in our deliberately broken desires, since the advantage of the light is from the darkness. The light is revealed by correcting desires, to the extent we reveal it upon the contrast of qualities.
#Spiritualwork_ML #Kabbalah #Wisdom

2. Torah is like software arranging our #development to bring us to the goal. By agreeing with the Programmer, we become part of and assist Him in the work.
Man’s mission is to restore the connection between the remote, broken parts and recreate the structure made by the Creator.

1. The #Torah is a special program of existence, a force capable of connecting all parts of reality. All elements of creation connect by countless connections in one harmony, to express the Maker Himself by the force of the desire that was created by the Creator.

I envy the friends,
Proud to be among them!
It is my hope to be like them!

Arming Teachers

Laitman_182.02Question: The Florida Senate passed a law, backed by the majority vote, allowing teachers to bear arms. Where will this lead? What if a teacher decides to start shooting?

Answer: Nothing can be done about that. There is nothing that can replace a proper upbringing. We could build a thousand more prisons, but it won’t help. The only effective thing is upbringing, and no one is doing that. It is a universal problem.

Question: What has to happen for the necessity for proper upbringing to pierce the heart like a splinter, forcing people to start doing something about it?

Answer: Only the realization that without the proper upbringing, a person only brings evil upon himself and others. It has to be realized to such an extent, taking into account how much suffering, money and everything else it costs us, that we would be ready to get re-educated.

The first requirement for correct education is the study of human nature. We have to familiarize people with it through mass media, in schools, everywhere.

Question: How can we overcome a mountain of misunderstandings?

Answer: This is the wall that stands in humanity’s way. But there is no way around it.

Question: Can the Creator suddenly change a person’s thinking?

Answer: He cannot. He has no right to! The entire creation would be meaningless. There is a method of correction inside you—act on it. If you do not search for it yourself, seriously realize it within yourself, and adjust yourself and society, you will not achieve the next educational level.

A person has to understand that if he does not change, neither he nor the world will have a good future, and life will be full of suffering for his children and everyone else.

Connection With The Creator Annihilates Stress

Laitman_107Question: The outside world puts the modern person into a state of constant stress. How do you cope with it?

Answer: I cannot imagine what constant stress is because everything that occurs I connect with the Creator. What kind of stress can there be if we are in His power, in His constant influence on us? We need nothing more than to relax and swim with the current of His action upon us.

I recommend regularly reading articles by Baal HaSulam and Rabash. They will quickly remove all stress from you. You will understand that the world is ruled by one benevolent power and all we need is to be in constant connection with it, to bring everything to the Creator.

New Life 990 – The Circle Of Life, Part 1

New Life 990 – The Circle Of Life, Part 1
Dr. Michael Laitman in conversation with Oren Levi and Nitzah Mazoz

The wisdom of Kabbalah teaches us how to attain a spiritual life through the language of roots and branches. What happens in the spiritual root is copied in the physical branch. The process of embryonic development, for example, is a copy of the process of spiritual conception in which there is an integration of the power of bestowal and the power of reception. All life is created by merging these two powers into a single body called a soul.
