How Can We Achieve Peace on Earth?
Question: Are we allowed to give away parts of the Land of Israel?
Answer: We must not involve ourselves in politics or anything of the kind, but only in intention! You cannot hold onto the land by force. You can see for yourself that it does not work.
The more a person acts with force, the more he loses; much more than his predecessor. You can see; Golda Meir did not give anything away. Now the generals come and each one concedes more than the one before. Why? The lower he falls, the more he gives.
It is clear to us that we will not be able to hold on to even a millimeter here by force because our world is structured according to the spiritual world. Therefore, we must correspond to the roots. Even those who want to achieve peace or security at any cost are unable to do so.
This is possible only through the forces that govern all of creation. Our world is a consequence. If you bring the forces of the spiritual world into order, this will inevitably bring about a result in our world.
Never through any action in this world that a person wishes to carry out through matter will he succeed in doing something that will truly benefit him. Sooner or later, he will feel it.
No matter how seemingly good a person’s intentions may be, if he uses forces, matter, or laws of the corporeal world alone, he will discover the evil contained within them. This is how nature is built; correction, order, and change must flow from above downward. And above it, we act only through our intention.
No matter how insignificant our attitude toward the world may seem to us (after all, what difference does my attitude make, I cannot measure or truly understand it); nonetheless, it is exactly this that has power! This is what humanity must reveal and arm itself with, intention, the correct attitude. If not, the world will continue to fall apart, faster and faster.
