It’s Better to Sit and Do Nothing
Question: What has happened to humanity? We used to want to study, get degrees, become directors, and earn money!
Answer: But why? We are aware of the uselessness of all these tensions.
People still play sports. They climb mountains and do other things, hold competitions in fashion, in sports, and in everything else. That too will pass.
The most important question is why?
Comment: He will kill everything.
My Response: Yes, and humanity will calm down. And what will happen? Nothing. We will simply relate to each other.
Question: This is unclear. What does it mean “simply relate to each other”?
Answer: Simply, meaning in such a way that you do not cause anyone any negative feelings.
Question: Not to evoke hatred toward yourself?
Answer: Calmness! Just get your salary and spend the day as you wish. You will have enough time and desire to get used to this world and learn how to behave in it.
Comment: So the demand for more money, a bigger house, a pool in the yard…
My Response: There will be none of that. A person will begin to understand that he must live within his sensations, in a movement toward the correct attitude with others, an internal movement. And then a person who care about one’s specialty, salary, or anything.
If I have such an attitude toward others and I feel that others have the same attitude toward me, this mutual good network of forces between us, I feel it, I live in it. That is my work, I exist in it and so do all the others.
We only develop these mutual sensations of ours, without any effort. It should be without effort! This is how I treat others and others treat me, and everything freezes. And only that is the only feeling you perceive.
Question: And when you say: overcome our egoism, rise above egoism?
Answer: It is all inside. Just calm down.
Question: And it will be so calm? I always have the feeling that a person must make enormous efforts.
Answer: No, no, nothing! Quite the opposite. Why? If we relate to it correctly, then the upper light, which is in absolute rest, it will do everything. Just don’t worry. Just don’t interfere. “The Creator will finish it for me.” It is that simple.
Question: Harvard University, Princeton, etc. will not be needed?
Answer: No, nothing at all is needed.
Question: And studies, higher education, second, and third degrees?
Answer: No, not needed.
Comment: Humanity built all this for so long.
My Response: It was in order to define its mistakes.
Question: What will humanity come to?
Answer: To a peaceful, inner mutual balance. And in it, the connection between us will be revealed as complete and peaceful. In the stillness of these waters, we will come to the point that we will see through them the Creator.
In the Torah, this was formulated thousands of years ago: “It is preferable to sit and do nothing.”
Question: What does “do nothing” mean?
Answer: Do nothing! Do it so that from doing nothing, you have everything. You will see it is possible.
Question: So I will have food, something to feed the family with?
Answer: To the extent that it is necessary for you, you will work. But it will not be labor. It will simply be an occupation.
Question: It is not like I go to work suffering, hate it, and still go?
Answer: You will not be rushing around and suffering in traffic jams, none of that will happen.
Question: Will this thought penetrate? “What is enough is enough for me, and I do not need more.”
Answer: It will come gradually, but it will also come quickly.
