We need to make people feel that unity has become second nature to us. After all, we are coming together and striving to create a common system of connections that should shape us into an entirely new humanity.
From this unity, new, clearer, and more stable connections between people should emerge, and within them, social relations should begin to form on an entirely new level.
Even new enterprises, educational systems, and media systems should arise from this network. The system of our interconnection, based on unity and absolute equality, should begin to generate systems of a new humanity founded precisely on the formula of complete interconnectedness and complete equality. Then we will become like the upper force, because no one will dominate another. In this, we will fully resemble the Creator.
The truth is that humanity has never had the opportunity to become equal. For centuries, many have strived for freedom, equality, and fraternity, understanding that this is the ideal.
But we could not solve this problem because we were not developed enough, and inside us, egoism was always boiling. A few idealists thought about it, while the rest tried to extract selfish gain from it.
Now this problem has become global. Every person, every family, feels it. Thus, we now have the opportunity to rethink and redefine everything, because today we can attract the upper force and with its help correct ourselves.
In other words, our congresses will become centers, and in between them, we will build an ever-widening community of people who will be able to grasp the new idea—a completely new paradigm, a completely new foundation, upon which all human institutions must be rebuilt. This includes industry, economy, banking, human relationships, family ties, relationships between children and parents, and education.
Everything we have done on this Earth must be rebuilt in accordance with a global system of governance. Then we will truly become fortunate and happy.
I believe that our congresses will begin to carry this idea into humanity, and people will realize that it is essentially a source of new understanding and knowledge through which we can build a better life for ourselves.

Comment: You say that we have entered a period where the process of correction is already taking place. But to us, it is not noticeable. We do not see anything except that everything is happening more intensively.
My Response: The process of exposing our egoistic nature is indeed happening, and it is becoming clear to everyone. Psychologists, sociologists, and politicians who think about these matters are starting to more or less realize that egoism, which is our very nature, is essentially what is destroying us.
People just think there is no cure for it, and so they throw up their hands and continue living as before: “What can be done? That is just how we are. We will keep devouring each other.”
That is why we need to develop the wisdom of Kabbalah to show people that it is not so. The process has begun, but it must be taken under conscious control and directed toward the goal by ourselves so that nature does not drive us toward happiness “with a stick.” Of course we do not yet see the egoism corrected, but we already see the recognition of egoism as evil. And that is the preliminary stage.
Already several million people around the world are able to hear that the egoism is meant to be corrected so that precisely through it, we ascend to the level of the Creator. If we make an effort to disseminate this knowledge, then by uniting among us, we will break through humanity’s disbelief, emptiness, and laziness, and give people the opportunity to understand that perfection and eternity are attainable, and that we are standing at the threshold of a very serious, elevated process.
We are not beings without a rudder or sails, without a clan or a tribe. We exist within the highest process of nature, within the Creator, who leads us from one end of creation to the other. We are now at a very critical, culminating point from which we can begin to move consciously, revealing worlds before us and feeling ourselves as part of the universe.
I believe that our current state is special. That is what the Kabbalists write. We must try to make these days of humanity more intense, more revealing of the great goal that stands before humanity. It was created by nature, and we will reach it anyway, but now we have the opportunity to consciously and swiftly realize it ourselves.
Question: Do you speak about the correction process not only with regard to the group but to all of humanity?
Answer: To all of humanity. The group is separate. Regarding our international group, which includes hundreds of thousands of people around the world who hear and are already absorbing this, we can say only one thing: this group is already a real spiritual force in the world, not by human standards but by spiritual qualities. If we measure not by numbers but by spiritual qualities, we are the greatest force in the world.
We must respect our community and understand what an opportunity we have to accelerate humanity’s development, to make it pleasant, easy, and inspiring, instead of allowing it to continue in division, anxiety, and fear of world war or ecological disaster.

What Do We Cause with Our Flaws?
Adapt to New Conditions
Egoism Is The Driving Force
Question: Is the inner desert a condition inherent to every person, or not everyone?
Answer: There are people in whom the egoistic desire has developed so much that they begin to feel dissatisfied with their lives.
It is like being in a desert. A person wants to know why this is happening. Is there a purpose, a higher program? Why does he feel such dryness, such emptiness in his life, from which no fruits grow?
He tells himself he needs to investigate the desert in him. This means he escapes into the desert, like our forefathers, looks for purpose, and does not find it. He plunges even deeper into inner scrutiny, tries to figure out why he feels such emptiness in life, and is unable to do anything.
This is the state of the desert, where one searches for sources of water, for wells, like Abraham or Isaac once did. There are many stories in the Torah about wells, which are so necessary especially in the desert. After all, if a person feels the dryness of life and has nothing with which to revive his soul, he must find a source of living water, that is, an upper force capable of answering him—what the purpose of his life is, its essence and meaning.
He is looking for the force that created these two states—drought and water, that is, egoism and the desire to love, evil and good. When he finds out that they come from the same source, he wonders how this can be. After all, people believed there were two forces: good and evil. Even Abraham himself once made idols in ancient Babylon, half of which were evil and half were good.
It is by going into the desert and digging wells for water that he finds the middle line. The middle line is the same upper force that brings both drought and water. This is the answer to man’s search: the feeling of drought and desert is given in order to seek and find the upper force that is the source of both phenomena.
Question: How do you find the upper force in the desert?
Answer: It is precisely because a person feels the drought and the absolute emptiness of life that he reveals the upper force.
Question: Why specifically in the desert?
Answer: A person must answer the question of why there is such dryness in his soul. And then he finds a well with living water, which is located precisely in the desert.

Comment: In order not to frighten the masses, you cannot reveal everything Kabbalah speaks about. After all, many things are revealed: horoscopes and so on.
My Response: Kabbalah explains the general method of correction, and that is it. What else can it say? It cannot explain why things happen one way to one person and another to someone else.
Question: But did horoscopes originate from Kabbalistic sources?
Answer: No, it was before Kabbalah. Horoscopes go back to very ancient methods of unraveling the path of man in this world; that is, to the most ancient methods of exploring nature and oneself; it has nothing to do with Kabbalah, which was revealed in Ancient Babylon only three and a half thousand years ago.
Comment: But at the same time, it still describes everything that exists in perception of this universe.
My Response: It does not matter. Kabbalah does not ask this question at all; it does not care how the fate of man in our world will turn out in his animate state; it has nothing to do with our body. To us the soul is important, the point in the heart and how to develop it is important.
What is Kabbalah by definition? It is the revelation of the Creator to man in this world. How does the Creator reveal Himself? In desire. Which one? In the one you develop from the point in your heart.
And everything else? Everything else is important only to the extent it applies to this desire, to this point in the heart. As soon as you start going into some kind of horoscopes, into human physiology, into the animal body, this is no longer Kabbalah. Then you should go to the gypsies and fortune tellers, and they will tell you things. By the way, real experts in this field can predict everything correctly.
Question: But in any case, if a person has to live his physical life, does he reveal his soul in the same process?
Answer: Yes, but Kabbalah does not speak about the physical world! This science speaks only about the development of the soul and about what you can feel in it.
I spoke about it with my teacher. He confirmed that the fortune tellers and soothsayers can tell the truth, as they possess this technique. But we do not have this technique, we do not need it. What difference does it make to me what happens to me? I have only one calculation: how to end my life with the highest score possible.
Is that what a fortune teller is for? To do this, I have to think only about the point in my heart! Let the body die, just let me bring it as close as possible to my spiritual correction.
Question: What should I do to not renounce the body altogether, but use it to the fullest?
Answer: Kabbalah does not allow us to renounce the body. You have to live a normal life: work, study, give birth, raise children, and treat this life exactly the same as everyone else around you.
Question: So how can you maximize using your body to achieve the goal?
Answer: Involve yourself only with achieving the goal, and everything else—as needed.
