Question: Will The Book of Zohar remain the main Kabbalistic Book?
Answer: Yes, it is a powerful source of information that is written in a very engaging way. It combines such a combination of styles that I do not think there is anything more attractive. I cannot imagine what else can satisfy a person so much. If one has this book before him, then actually nothing more is needed.
All you need is preparation in order to read it, connect with it, and find yourself in it. But once you have obtained it, it reveals endless depths to you in all its forms.
This book reveals everything about our world. Truly everything: tragedies, comedies, science, philosophy, society, personal life, space—in general, everything. Moreover, it talks in such a way, as if it is weaving a canvas, and you begin to feel such multifaceted and seemingly odd connections: “Where did it suddenly come from?!”
This versatility, the surprise of these connections evokes awe! I do not see this in any other book. Baal HaSulam and Rabash have done everything to bring us closer to The Book of Zohar, but they could never replace it. Thus, you need to understand this book and discover it for yourself.

Question: Let’s say a person studying Kabbalah falls into despair because they cannot understand what spirituality is, and at the same time they feel lost in the ordinary world. At some point they reach a state where they belong neither here nor there. They are almost on the verge of madness.
You say: “That is good, it means the person is ready.” But how can he use that state if he does not know what to do?
Answer: Nothing will happen to him! It just seems so to him. His limited earthly capabilities and sensations cannot yet absorb anything spiritual, so it feels to him like he is being torn apart. But in truth, he is not being torn apart. There is nothing that can break.
I completely understand these states. I have gone through them myself. You just need to expose yourself to the influence of the upper light, and slowly, gradually, things will start to change.
It is evolution! There is no way around it. If our previous development up to this point took so much time, let this also take a couple more years. That is how it is. It might take 10 or 15 years.
And what else was a person created for if not to reach spiritual existence during his physical lifetime?
We think: “Okay, I will just step into the spiritual world and then start operating there.” But why? How do you know how many new abilities, data, and inner qualities are developing in you right now?
It is a vast system that you must absorb within yourself. This system is infinite. You need to gradually adapt to it. You cannot make sudden leaps here. There is a specific order to your development. It just cannot happen all at once.

Once a person is convinced that he has nothing in his hands, that he has a long path to travel, that he has searched, suffered, and tried to make something of himself and sees he cannot, he turns to the Creator.
Question: Where is the element of happiness here, at what point?
Answer: You feel you have nothing else but the Creator. You have to appeal to Him and simply persuade, beg, urge, or compel, and oblige Him.
Comment: To answer.
My Response: Yes, just demand revelation.
Question: Is that moment the moment of happiness?
Answer: Yes.
Comment: So the whole path, we can say it was…
My Response: The whole path was also toward revealing the Creator because all you wanted on your spiritual path was to gain the quality of love and bestowal. Only you couldn’t turn to the Creator.…
Comment: With a broken heart.
My Response: Right, you could not make the correct appeal. And now you have done it. Today, people are already exhausted, and therefore, they can hear it.
Question: So one way or another, people want to come to the true prayer today?
Answer: If we did not fool ourselves with the media and other things, we could slowly explain what happiness is.

We are created in such a way that by connecting with each other and with the Creator, by complementing it, and being part of it, we reveal perfection to the extent that we can complement this perfection ourselves.
We begin to feel that everything except us is perfect. And when I enter and gradually start filling this perfection in places that remain open for me, like in a mosaic, I begin to experience the highest pleasure because in this way, I attain eternity, the perfection, which I myself create, complete, and realize.
It is an astonishing sensation! We are created to feel this and be filled with it. In truth, we have no other needs. So, by attaining this, we attain everything.
When humanity experiences all of this, when it merges into an absolutely perfect, eternal system, into this wondrous harmony, then beyond this threshold—as Kabbalists hint in their books—lies the next stage of a certain state, development.
We cannot imagine what development means because we currently have no needs that correspond to the next stage. And then suddenly—no, I want classical music now! And then definitely some impressionism, and then something else.
That is, it is quite possible that we will develop other desires. Or perhaps it will not be based on a desire at all. On the desire to receive? Certainly not anymore. On the desire to bestow? I don’t know. This is a realm that cannot be explored by us; we have no instruments or means to study it.
In addition to the so-called sixth millennium, there is also the seventh, which represents complete correction. This corresponds to the Sabbath. And then there are also the eighth, ninth, and tenth millennia. In “The Introduction to The Mouth of the Wise,” Rabash writes that Baal HaSulam spoke about this.
But right now, we cannot discuss it, as it is far beyond us—just like a small child cannot reason about what happens in the world of adults.
In the spiritual world, a person sees only their own level and a part of the upper level. All the previous levels are included within them and form their true integral essence, while the higher level is slightly revealed to them—the one meant to elevate them—like a mother, parents, or our world in relation to a child.
They perceive them, but in what way? Only at the level they are on and slightly above within the possibilities that are made available to them. Nothing else can be perceived! Everything else that exists is nothing to them.
