Question: Can a Kabbalist be a scoundrel?

Answer: This cannot be because he clearly sees the qualities of the Creator and is a part of Him.

But how can you think that a person is capable of performing miracles? What miracles do you want? Like little children, I want this to happen! If there is some mechanism inside the object, you press a button and show the child the so-called “miracle.” He opens his mouth because he does not understand the connection between the button and what happened.

We are all in exactly the same state.

I remember how I was once sitting in an airport in the north of Russia. Some Chukchi (a member of an Indigenous people of extreme northeastern Siberia) was passing by, and at that moment, the door of a box that measures the air temperature suddenly opened. You know, there is such a device. There is a box on a column in which there are barometers, thermometers, and other measuring devices. A motor (selsyn) automatically opens the door of the box so that air enters, and the devices measure it. Then the box closes until the next measurement.

When the Chukchi saw this, he almost fell. You should have seen his face. I thought: “Well, now a new god is being born before him.” For him, naturally, it is a miracle. Suddenly a door opens…

It is the same with us. We all wait for such phenomena, behind which stand these selsyns that open and close doors.
