My Thoughts On Twitter 1/15/19

Yet the suffering will compel us to correct the ego through the application of Kabbalah.
#Davos2019 #Macron #Trump

Leading stakeholders are withdrawing from #Davos 2019. “Globalization and cooperation of nations” aren’t interesting.
#Globalization is proving unattainable due to human ego.
Development pushes us to unite, but ego divides us.

Bnei Baruch Women’s Conference

Dr. Michael LaitmanFrom My Facebook Page Michael Laitman 1/14/19

This weekend, I spoke at our international virtual conference on empowering women in 2019. I said what I always say at every opportunity when the subject comes up: After hundreds of years, women can finally come out from behind the scenes and from behind the modesty that surrounded them, to take over responsibility, management, promotion, and influence in all areas of life.

This coming year is unique in giving women around the world the opportunity to chart a new direction for humanity. All that is required of them, and all of us, is a tiny thing: to rise above the conflicts. Through compromise and connection, you can make the world a warm and loving home.

Dear women, do not miss this opportunity.

The Fear Of Death

laitman_566.02Question: I justify the Creator, but the only thing that I cannot justify is physical death. What should I do?

Answer: If it were not for the fear of death, we would have made a big mess in this world. Imagine if we were immortal. How much harm would a person cause himself and others? Then every day, like a Phoenix, he would rise again and it would be the same all over again. That is horrible!

Death is salvation. If not for the fear of death, a person would not do anything. He would very quickly bring himself to death.

The fear of death helps a person by forcing him to think about the meaning of life: “What for? What? Why? With what account do I end my life? Is there anything else but this?”

The most important question: “What are we living for?”

Remark: But no one asks about it anyway.

My Comment: Subconsciously, everyone does! Even children have this question.

Question: Would it be possible to educate people by explaining to them that death is a transition to another state?

Answer: Of course. Psychologically, you can do anything to a person and he will not be afraid of death.

Can A Kabbalist Decide Something At The Level Of This World?

laitman_600.04Question: How do you, a Kabbalist, feel the hand of the Creator through what is happening to you? Can you decide anything at the level of this world?

Answer: No, I cannot. I can only agree with what the Creator decides. All my work is on myself, not on changing the world or forcing the Creator to do something.

Question: So a Kabbalist does not decide anything? Does he have the ability to agree with what is happening to him? And is this the main decision?

Answer: Yes. Try it. Let’s see what kind of hero you will be. It only seems to you that changing the world is easier than changing yourself.

Remark: I understand that to agree is much harder.

My Comment: This is already good. This is a step toward heroism.
