Question: How can one imagine eternal pleasure?
Answer: From the Creator, we receive desires and fulfillments. Desires are felt as hunger and suffering, while pleasures are felt as the attainment of perfection precisely to the extent of the desire for it.
In our everyday life, we cannot receive continuous fulfillment because desires and fulfillments are not revealed in us simultaneously. But if a person correctly prepares himself to receive fulfillment with an intention to bestow, he receives the desire from the Creator simultaneously with the fulfillment. This is similar to someone who eats food and feels an undiminished sense of hunger together with an unceasing sense of satiation. And so it is in all of one’s desires.

Comment: In the 1960s, the CIA experimented with LSD and other drugs, and at some point they really did change the world. That is how the hippie revolution began.
In the end, this led people to drop out of society because they saw a little more. As people who took drugs describe their sensations, they could “see with hearing” and “hear with sight.”
My Response: There is nothing like that! It is only a disruption of the brain’s functioning, nothing more.
What happened to the hippies in practice? They lived in a drug-induced fog for several years, and then ended up thrown onto the “scrap heap.” By age 40, they were left without a profession, broken, incapable of anything.
The generation of the 60s had to painfully endure this until they passed on. Humanity understood that drugs disconnect people from reality, and rejected LSD and all the other substances.
Why do we reject them? Let us spray drugs over seven billion people, let them have fun! Why should they suffer?
But we cannot! Nature, the higher governance, does not allow this because we disconnect from reality. We are obligated to reach a certain special, predetermined result of our existence on this Earth. We must reach unity, a single organism. And if this does not happen, then our whole life has no meaning.
That is why people will never agree to drugs. This is programmed in nature. The program that operates within us is aimed at making us check and confirm once again that any disconnection from reality is unacceptable. That is how we are built. We cannot do anything about it!
With time we will not take drugs or alcohol at all. Perhaps more years will pass, but we will still have to tear this out of ourselves. I am sure such a time will come. Society will force itself to change, otherwise it will see that it is doomed to extinction.

The main problem in educating people lies in the fact that we do not teach them to find what is most important for themselves—a goal. Moreover, in this regard one must be truly independent, and place oneself in a state where neither the media, nor society, nor anything else influences you, where none of that matters to you, and you can withstand everyone.
This is scarier than a battle because you must endure a powerful attack of information, various ideas of a frenzied crowd, the so-called values of humanity. Where would you get the inner strength for this, the ability to compare things, to rise above it all, to disregard everything else where necessary? This is not simple at all. One must be taught this.
If we do not teach this to the growing generation, they will be tossed around like tumbleweeds, and will remain unhappy all their lives. We can see how people cannot find themselves. We think that out of seven billion people, 99% are simply not suited for anything. No, they were never taught. Each person has their own individuality.
When you give a person the opportunity to find themselves and their goal, their point among this vast number of people, they suddenly begin to understand themselves, and see that everything around is precisely adjusted to them.
Therefore, the most important thing is the education of a person: to be where one needs to be, to independently choose one’s own path in life, and to connect correctly with everyone else in order to realize this path.

Question: How much time would it take you to explain to a newcomer what spirituality is, to tell him about spirituality and show it to him?
Answer: Show it? How can you show it to him? He has no tools to reproduce it within himself.
Comment: Let’s put it this way, to convey spirituality. I remember there was a program called “All of Kabbalah in 90 Minutes.”
My Response: You can explain it even in five minutes! That is not important. You can convey in a single sentence what Kabbalah is: “The revelation of the Creator to a person in this world.” That is it. And then, go study. Until a person changes himself…
Kabbalah is not an external science but an inner one. Therefore, everything depends on a person’s qualities. And person’s qualities depend on his efforts, not on me.
Comment: But still, the external picture, whether one wants it or not, attracts a person at the initial stage, and someone who begins to study Kabbalah can work with that.
My Response: Yes, I understand you. Make clips, movies, whatever you want for your advertising. But the wisdom of Kabbalah is still an inner science.

Question: Who benefits more in spiritual advancement: someone who is close
to you and can communicate with you or someone far away?
Answer: The biggest benefit can be attained by those who are internally close to me. Baal HaSulam, in an article dedicated to the completion of The Book of Zohar and in several letters, writes that true spiritual attainment comes only from the student’s inner connection to the teacher.
Nowadays, this happens not directly but through a group. And still, this principle remains. In Kabbalah, it is called mouth to mouth (Peh el Peh), that is, according to the common screen between the student and the teacher.
This technique is generally known, when a student annuls before the teacher and devotes himself to connecting with the teacher in such a way that the inner content flows from the teacher to the student.
Although Kabbalah, on one hand, is a science, it talks about how to receive the upper light through the similarity of form. It is precisely the similarity of properties that is called the mouth to mouth contact (Peh el Peh).
