For many generations, women have been in the shadows. But in our time, they are beginning to awaken and come forward because we live in the last generation, the last stage of development of humanity, which must bring unity among all men and all women and then unite men and women together with the Creator.

Kabbalists wrote about the coming of the last generation and all its signs are confirmed judging by the global coronavirus pandemic as well as other events that are yet to happen in the near future.

The progress in the 21st century brought us to a state where there is nothing to do but unite with each other and rise to the spiritual level. And here, in the birth of a new humanity, women must fulfill their irreplaceable role.

What is the difference between a woman’s work in the new, post-coronavirus world and the old one? We still do not really understand and feel it, but we can already see how the coronavirus has locked us inside our homes, inside our families, leaving us alone with our husband or wife, with our children, with all our problems.

We start to look at life in a completely different way because the future is covered with uncertainty. And even now, with the easing of the quarantine and seemingly returning to normal life, we do not know what will happen, and we are afraid of a new wave of the coronavirus. It is possible that there are many other dangerous viruses besides it.

We must understand that all this comes in order to make us one humanity. And most importantly, to organize women to unite and lead the world. If people now spend more time at home, it means that women receive huge power.

Many will lose their jobs completely, others will work from home via the Internet, meaning, men will be at home most of the time. And if everything is concentrated in the house, then, of course, a woman will have a more important, high, and decisive position. The house is run by the woman, not the man.

And so, if we act wisely and delicately, women can gradually draw men to the correction of the world, which is already bound to come and is approaching. We have no choice. We need to explain this to our men and convince them to participate in it.

A woman should, as a mother, take care of her children and her husband in order to guide them in the right direction toward correction. And then, we will definitely be able to achieve peace in the family and peace in the world, as well as rise to connect with the Creator.

So, the last generation will be the time of the woman if she can fulfill her role. If not, we will have to move toward correction through blows and suffering.

The Creator is the absolute, which does not change and reveals itself to us as a force of absolute good. Our perceptions and our desires are changing,  that is why we say that the Creator is changing.

But in reality, changes occur only in us. Therefore, in order to reveal the Creator, we need to bring ourselves to the state of similarity to Him in order to match His properties.

But how can we become similar to the Creator if we are all egoists? We remain egoists, but we must unite between us above our egoism with bonds of mutual bestowal, unity, and love despite our natural rejection. We are like an untuned musical instrument that needs to be tuned in order to play correctly.

It is written about the violin of King David that it was hanging on the wall and at some point, that is, in a special state, it began to play by itself. The group should achieve such connection between the friends, which will be in a form similar to the Creator. Although everyone remains egoistic, they overcome their egoism and unite with others in such a way that the form of our connection corresponds to the form of the Creator, perfect, one.

And then the Creator reveals Himself in us. He is not somewhere outside the group but only within it. To the extent that ten friends tune themselves for the right connection, for mutual bestowal, the Creator reveals Himself and starts to play our violin. This is the revelation of the Creator to the created beings.

Therefore, it is necessary to relate to the work in tens practically, effectively, striving to achieve such a form and spirit of connection that is similar to the Creator. Of course, we are moving toward this gradually, through 125 steps, calibrating ourselves more and more accurately.

Thus, we achieve the complete revelation of the Creator in our common Kli, in the HaVaYaH, when “He Is One and His Name, One.” That is, the HaVaYaH, our ten, is correctly connected by all the ten Sefirot, by all their smallest inner sub-Sefirot so much so that they achieve complete unity, corresponding to the nature of the Creator: absolute bestowal.

Question: In addition to the five senses (sensory systems) aimed outward, there are internal sensors in our body directed inward, which process information from its various parts: from all the muscles, the internal organs, the blood vessels, and all areas of the brain.

What does Kabbalah say about the internal sensors? Are they necessary only to maintain the homeostasis and the awareness of the physical well-being and desires in the body, or do they also help me recognize my most sublime and deepest desires as well as the desires of other people?

Answer: The whole system is integral; there is no part in it which can operate in isolation from other parts.

In our world we believe that everything changes on the outside, like the weather, for example, sunshine, snow, and rain. I accept it all as something that falls on my head.

In fact, this is not so; everything depends on my attributes. It is to such an extent that I need to gradually begin to feel even external phenomena such as snow, rain, and sunshine, and different problems we may encounter in this world, like earthquakes and other such things, not as the Creator’s impacts on me, but as my own attributes.

My attributes dictate all the phenomena and everything I feel in this world, while I feel that they are seemingly nature’s or the Creator’s positive or negative attitude toward me. His attribute is absolutely positive bestowal unto me.

You imagine how different we are from the Creator and that we feel our lives as constant changes from bad to worse to better and then to worse, from better to worse, over and over again. We are constantly unhappy with Him. There are two options in our attitude to the Creator.

On the one hand, we can relate to the Creator Himself, but we need to understand that we cannot relate to the Creator Himself because He is the source of absolute good. Whatever we attribute to Him, we will not be able to change anything because He is simply the source of the light. The only thing that can help is the right attitude toward the light that emanates from Him, not our attitude to the source, but to the light.

In order to relate to the light correctly, we need to understand how it comes to us, what it carries, and how we can be in contact with it.

Question: Why do the original sources say that the only sin of man is when he does not ask the Creator for help?

Answer: If we are completely in the Creator, completely tied to Him and without exception, we receive from Him, no matter what desires and intentions we have, even the worst, most rude ones, all that remains for us is to constantly, purposefully turn to Him so that He will change us and bring us closer to Him and reveal what we should do regarding Him.

That is, the sin does not lie in the fact that I did something in relation to another person or to the Creator, but in the fact that I did not ask the Creator to give me the strength to consciously turn to Him, to consciously perceive what I receive from Him.

Question: So, while I live unconsciously, then, in principle, there is nothing to demand from me, there can be nothing to demand from any animal?

Answer: Sure.

New Life 1205 – Living Inside My Bubble
Dr. Michael Laitman in conversation with Oren Levi and Yael Leshed-Harel

Transcending life inside my own comfortable and secure bubble to a more advanced bubble requires a higher power. The wisdom of Kabbalah can teach me how to leave my bubble and detach from my ego. I need to stop thinking about what is good for me and begin to consider what benefits others. Self-absorbed thoughts are limiting and hold me back from the truth, whereas thinking about what is good for others expands the boundaries of my bubble and the world becomes infinite.

In Shamati #34, “The Profit of a Land,” Baal Ha Sulam writes: To be rewarded with the degree of hating separation, one must first know what separation is, meaning what he is separated from, and then one may say that he wants to correct that separation.

He wants to not only correct himself, but also restrict himself so he does not move away. This is only if he understands what this separation is. But if he doesn’t remember this state, this definition, or if he has never experienced it, he is not afraid of it and gets close to it like a blind man.

Question: Does this mean that one should experience a prior separation?

Answer: Yes, definitely. It is only after we fall that we can maintain the state of not falling internally. Where does all of creation start? From the shattering.

Remark: But we don’t remember our fall.

My Comment: We do not remember, but we can remember it if we want to. Then we will not fall and we will not break because all of the negative attributes will exist within us. We do not need to bang our heads against the wall again and again. In other words, a spiritual Reshimot of all the levels of the descent, of the fall, remain in us, and we will ascend up the same levels and remember every level.

Who is more corrected: man or woman?

Question: Can one say that initially a woman is more spiritually corrected than a man?

Answer: In part, yes. But on the other hand, a man in relation to this is given greater opportunities to correct himself than a woman. So in a specific state it cannot be said that a man has more conditions and opportunities than a woman.

Women have a much more balanced egoism and much fewer states. And in men, the contrary. But among men and women there is a huge difference, a whole palette of egoistic states.

Question: What is the point of calling for unification without mentioning the Creator if He is the only one who can connect people?

Answer: What is the point of talking about the Creator if no one believes in Him, doesn’t understand Him, and doesn’t know Him?

What does the Creator mean? All of our integral, interconnected nature in which we exist is the Creator. Or are you talking about nature with its integral, physical, exact mathematical laws? Or are you talking about the Creator as the highest power? Both concepts are identical.

The Creator isn’t some god who sits somewhere on a cloud, makes something up, and then creates it. The Creator is all of the enormous, eternal, perfect, and infinite nature, which includes all the worlds and all stages of the ascent of a man to these worlds.

Therefore, one doesn’t have to imagine Kabbalistic expressions in their earthly form. On the contrary, the nature or the Creator is one and the same all the time. Kabbalah doesn’t explain otherwise. Study Kabbalah and you will see how to relate to these forces.
