Question: Do I connect with my friends at this convention physically the way we did at the convention in Arava?

Answer: Today we have much more opportunity than before to connect spiritually. Previously, many people came to us who did not know at all where they were going. Among them were those who were not in continuous contact with us.

Now we are in a state where we feel more, know more, see each other, are constantly in connection with each other, and we are strengthening it.

The world too, as we see, is constantly changing. We must understand that all these changes in the world are for the better. All this is only in order to bring us closer to the final correction so that we would shed our egoistic skin and unite with each other with naked hearts.

I hope this is our nearest future.

Question: What should be the main task of women during this congress of connection? How do we pray? How do we keep the intention? How do we help the men? How can we be in a unified state?

Answer: Women really know how to pray, they know how to ask. It is very important that they participate and add their prayers to ours.

We know how much a woman can support, push, and direct a man to the right goal. So I think their participation with us is simply a necessity. I am very glad that they are with us. Only together.

Why does disseminating the science of Kabbalah help us so much during a descent? The fact is that I receive the upper force through the people to whom I disseminate because in all of them there is the Creator, the Shechina.

And by advancing them to the Creator, I am doing a lot of useful work that pleases the Creator because He wants everyone to approach Him. Therefore, with my work, I bring good to everyone, including myself.

Then from the Light of Ein Sof, a single line hung down from Above, lowered into that space.

And through that line, He emanated, created, formed, and made all the worlds
(Ari, The Tree of Life).

The line entering the empty space is the influence of the Creator, who influences the desire created by Him, located in this void. Thus, this desire begins to react to the influence of the Creator (to this line) and gradually transform itself inside this void.

This line is not the Creator Himself, but the thought, the plan, that exists before any actions.

Everything described in the book The Tree of Life was attained by its author, the great Kabbalist of the 16^th century the Ari.

And every person has to attain this.

Question: If a person who has attained the spiritual world loses his contact with the Creator, and this is called sleep, can sleep be called a spiritual descent?

Answer: While sleeping, a Kabbalist is in a different state than an ordinary person because by the nature of his activity he is always striving for the Creator and wants to be in contact with Him. Even in his sleep, he subconsciously continues his activities.

But in spirituality, the state of sleep has nothing to do with a descent. Physiologically, a person falls, say, from the tenth step to the sixth step, breaks away, and departs from his activity. But this is a forced measure that keeps him in order to continue to work actively the next day. We cannot avoid it because our animalistic part requires certain care.

On the spiritual level, while in a state of sleep, meaning being in minimal contact with the Creator, a person continues to work in the way that is required for his soul. For him, this is a natural state, a spiritual reboot to rise to the next degree.

Question: Where is the Creator hiding and why?

Answer: The Creator hides behind the entire canvas of this world, behind all our feelings and thoughts. If we want to attain Him, we must expand these actions, qualities, feelings, and visions, and then we will reveal Him as the basis of all this.

Question: What language does He understand?

Answer: The Creator understands the language of feelings when you relate to Him independently of yourself, want to feel Him and at the same time forget about yourself. That is, the feeling of the Creator must be absolutely objective!

Question: How can one understand that the Creator has no boundaries, that He is infinite?

Answer: I do not think we can understand this because a person perceives everything within certain limits. It comes gradually, precisely through the efforts.

Question: Does the Creator like when we pray to Him?

Answer: The Creator does not like when we pray to Him, worship or beg Him. The Creator loves people who want to come closer to Him because His state is absolute, the best! Which is what He wishes for the created beings.

Question: What is God like?

Answer: God is like absoluteness in everything!

Question: Does He have feelings and mind?

Answer: The feelings and mind of the Creator are not limited by anything. But we cannot talk about them because we perceive everything within a framework, within boundaries, in limitations.

Question: Does God have mysteries?

Answer: He has no mysteries. On the contrary, He wants to be fully revealed to the created beings. But at the same time, His task is to bring the created beings to a state where they can reveal Him. He is not hiding.

Question: What is the most real proof that God exists?

Answer: The fact that we exist.

Question: Which image can more accurately correspond to the Creator?

Answer: I would draw with the letters “י – ה – ן – ה”—”Yod-Hey-Vav-Hey.”

Question: What question would you ask the Creator?

Answer: Do you have anything else to show me?

Question: There is a category of people who are ready to help others, the sick and disadvantaged ones for example. But they are mainly driven by the fear that this could happen to them. Does it mean that altruism does not work in this case?

Answer: It does not matter. A person understands that if he does altruistic actions, then he will be fine. This is still a more developed form of egoism.

Question: So it isn’t bad when a person tries to help someone?

Answer: Of course it is not bad. It is better if we offer something to each other—even though everyone is offering something that is more pleasant, more profitable, and safer for him—it is still better than standing with bayonets all the time and bristling against each other. What is good about that?

It is better to come to some kind of mutual agreement even if it is an egoistic one and cooperate rather than pointing bayonets at each other.

Question: Man has invented photography and movie cameras that capture reality as we see it, meaning subjective reality. You say that if we change our senses, then reality will be perceived differently.

Why does the camera still capture everything in our sensors? If we had other sensors, would we see something different in the captured photo?

Answer: The fact is that nothing is actually fixed, it is all inside us. That is why it is hard for me to explain it.

Everything is inside a person and depends only on which Reshimot are triggered in him, what exactly they draw to him, and he now sees it from the outside.

Question: There are a lot of your recordings in the archive. I’m reviewing some of the videos that we recorded three years ago, and I’m surprised how much they contain information that was at that time imperceptible.

Answer: Of course, you didn’t feel it then, but you do now.

What does it mean to record information? This is the Reshimot, their implementation. There is nothing else.

Information records exist initially, that is, even before something was created. And then they unfold and are realized, filled, and stored in this form until they come together into one single, full-blooded, perfect, complete, closed system called the world of infinity. And all the smallest details, no matter what happens, are realized and recorded.

The fact that we are now inventing all kinds of recording forms, various mechanisms, all this is nonsense. All this has already been recorded and exists around us; it represents one single computer, one single communication system. It has everything, and every time we just awaken more and more connections and constantly capture everything. Meanwhile, our intentions, thoughts, volitional and painful efforts are recorded, everything you want.

The Reshimo consists of two parts: from the power of the Reshimo, Aviut (that is, the power of desire) and the Reshimo de-Itlabshut (the power of attainment, the magnitude of attainment). Therefore, there is a record of absolutely everything, everything is included in the Reshimo. And this huge record is gradually unfolding ahead of us so that we learn, become active elements of it, gradually absorb the whole system, and become its rulers along with the Creator.

Michael Laitman, On Quora: “Why do so many people identify with the loneliest whale?“

The Loneliest Whale: The Search for 52 is a documentary that, over thirty years, tracked a whale that produced high-pitched sounds on a frequency unique solely to that whale, to which no other whales responded. They thus called this whale “the loneliest whale,” as it lived in complete loneliness, roaming the seas with its unanswered call.

Many people identify with this whale because sometimes in life we feel that we too are like that lonely whale, that no one hears us. We could even be surrounded by a lot of people and have a social life on the outside, but on the inside, we sometimes feel so lonely that no one responds to us.

Indeed, we each live inside ourselves. However, instead of remaining lonely, we should apply ourselves to positively connect with others above our feelings of loneliness. It is because our development is leading us to a complete connection among all people, and by aligning with such a tendency, we will discover much happier, more fulfilled and meaningful lives than our current experience. We should thus consider the kind of frequency that we would need to produce in order for others to hear us and turn to us.

That frequency is a heart full of love, one which wishes to benefit them. If we calibrate ourselves in such a way, then we would cure our loneliness. We would then find that others would start responding to us, wanting to come closer to us.

Based on the video “Why Do So Many People Identify With the Loneliest Whale?” with Kabbalist Dr. Michael Laitman and Oren Levi. Written/edited by students of Kabbalist Dr. Michael Laitman.
