The Power of Emotions

Posted on December 22nd, 2025

Comment: A story circulating on social media shares that psychologists working with children suffering from the final (terminal) stage of cancer decided to fulfill the most cherished wish of each child and see how the fulfillment of a dream would affect their well-being.

A four-year-old girl living in a village wanted to ride a tram. An eleven-year-old boy dreamed of riding a horse, and a thirteen-year-old girl dreamed of becoming a princess: having servants and having her hand kissed like a princess.

The psychologists rented a tram and spent about two hours riding the little girl around the city. They showed her interesting sights and treated her to tea and sweets. For the boy and his father, they found a couple of horses, and father and son rode along the seashore.

They rented an old castle and beautiful antique clothing. The doctors dressed up as courtiers, and the girl was dressed in a princess gown. The little princess walked through the halls, everyone served her, and, just as she had dreamed, kissed her hand.

The subsequent medical examination results were simply astounding. In one child, the cancer completely disappeared; in the others, the disease either receded or at least stopped progressing!

This experiment confirmed a truth known to ancient physicians but often forgotten by modern ones: emotions have the strongest and most direct influence on our well-being and health. Positive emotions and good thoughts are capable not only of bringing joy and a sense of happiness, but also of overcoming the most terrible disease.

My Response: In addition to the influence of the surrounding light (Ohr Makif) in integral actions, which in general transform everything bad and harmful into good and beneficial, positive emotions that arise within the circle of integral communication also produce a healing effect.

To Be Born on a New Degree

Posted on December 22nd, 2025

Question: In our world, a person is born, develops, becomes an adult, and has children of their own. But when a person crosses the Machsom, does he then build himself, his soul, beyond it?

Answer: Yes. He already chooses: whether to “eat” from the mother or not, whether to be closer to her or not; he does things independently and learns from her.

Comment: In our world, a person eventually dies.

My Response: In spirituality, he dies on his current degree in order to ascend to the next degree. There is no death there as there is in our corporeal body.

He raises himself to the next degree, and after that, his previous degree dies. It seemingly disappears from his rigid governance. He begins to work with new qualities, with new ten Sefirot. The past remains beneath him; there is no longer any need for it.

Question: So is being born and dying like passing through one point in the heart until complete correction?

Answer: In spirituality, as we pass through 125 degrees, we die at each one and are born anew on the next degree.

What does “we die” mean? I have simply completed working on the previous degree and now I am as if born as a new person. I awaken and feel that new qualities have appeared within me. I begin to perceive the world in a new way. This is clearly happening to me.

Both birth and death are desirable! I myself evoke them within me.

This Is Happiness

Posted on December 22nd, 2025

Question: You keep talking about good connections, about the fact that people must draw closer to one another. But what if everyone says: “Here, I have a piece of clay.” And each one says this: “So do I, and I have one too. Let’s build a little house for us.” Will it work, or will it not work?

Answer: No.

Question: It would not?

Answer: You must understand what is missing in this piece of clay. What is missing is the inner connection of all the pieces, of everyone’s, everyone’s. And then, in the merging of our hearts, we return to the state called Adam, similar to the Creator.

Question: In what was he similar?

Answer: Before his shattering, before being divided into billions of parts, this was an angel. That is, an absolutely good, absolutely righteous, correct intention, which together with the Creator carried out everything necessary for a perfect world.

Question: Was this a single intention for everyone? One single soul like that? Can one say so? All souls were merged into one single soul?

Answer: Yes.

Question: You are speaking about what existed in the beginning, and then everything shattered into fragments, and the fragments of the soul fell, as they say, into this world of ours. And we must return to that state?

Answer: Yes. We must realize that we are in a shattered state and that we must return to a unified state. This is precisely what is called assembling the pieces of clay that each one has.

Question: When you say “assemble the pieces of clay,” what do you mean?

Answer: Merging, connection, the unification of hearts.

Question: So this is the material from which we must mold happiness?

Answer: Yes.

Question: And only then will there be happiness?

Answer: And then there will be what the Creator intended.

Question: And did He intend that we would be happy?

Answer: Of course!

Question: What is happiness, in the Creator’s understanding, in your opinion?

Answer: Happiness, in the Creator’s understanding, is the connection of everyone together into one single desire, into one single action, when we feel no shattering whatsoever between us. Then what we experience is called happiness. This is the definition of happiness.
