What should a person know in the new world?

Question: What should a person know in the new world that we suddenly found ourselves in?

Answer: There is only one good action – coming closer to each other, and only one evil action – rejection and distancing from each other.

Question: If I know the purpose of existence and can explain to myself the causes of the coronavirus, will it help?

Answer: It is very simple. After all, the coronavirus or any other problems that will manifest between us are only the results of our incorrect connections. Therefore, there is no need to be wise and learn something special. Just one demonstration of our evil connections with each other is enough.

Question: Let’s say a person listened to our program, then what? Should he say, “That’s it, now I am starting to treat everyone well”?

Answer: This will not help him because he cannot change his nature. People can only change their nature by placing themselves under a positive influence regularly. To do so requires regularly listening to our channel and letting it cleanse our thoughts and feelings.

Question: Are you saying that we need to learn to be in the correct connection?

Answer: Of course.

Question: Could it be that we will not return to the old world in which we lived and this virus will not end?

Answer: Naturally.

Question: However, there is an opinion that in a few weeks it will get warmer and everything will be alright. Who knows? Humanity has been through many such cataclysms.

Answer: Then there will be a different one. Nature will not leave us alone. It will happen out of the blue, like this virus. Who would have thought that it would appear? It emerged so suddenly and unexpectedly. For example, when we started the World Kabbalah Convention in Israel toward the end of February, there was practically nothing. And when we finished it, a week later, there already was a panic in Israel and worldwide.

Question: If the main idea of all world religions is to unite people with some common idea and raise them to a higher power, why has the science of Kabbalah not become the leading world religion in these 6,000 years?

Answer: The science of Kabbalah appeared 6,000 years ago, and the foundations of religions 3,500 years ago in Ancient Babylon. Christianity arose about 2,000 years ago and Islam 600 years later.

The science of Kabbalah is not a religion. You do not need to believe in it, you just need to realize it. The reason for the emergence of religions was the concealment of the science of Kabbalah.

Kabbalah does not affirm anything unfounded; it encourages a person to reveal and find what it is talking about. This is a science that is called Hochmat a-Kabbalah (the wisdom of Kabbalah) that is, wisdom. It consists of no sacred acts, passes, or anything else.

It does not say that you must believe. You must come to a state called faith. But faith is a state of bestowal, of rising above one’s egoism, not the faith that religions speak of.

That is, Kabbalah has absolutely nothing to do with them. So, it doesn’t matter who you are or what you are. Nationality and gender do not matter. The main thing is the desire to know where you live and what for. Kabbalah does not divide people into any signs. Whoever desires comes and engages in it.

Question: What is self-love?

Answer: It is our egoism, which is known to each of us when a person loves himself indefinitely, unconsciously, groundlessly, because such is the force of nature. It subconsciously exists in us.

Question: But at the same time I enjoy at the expense of others?

Answer: Not necessarily at the expense of others. Simply love for dear ourselves—it is our ego.

Question: Contemporary gathering of friends are broadcast around the world. Groups and individuals from hundreds of countries participate in them. Their representatives talk about the importance of the goal. We show video materials, talk about news on dissemination, and listen to music.

Is this normal? Is there some kind of a classic meeting option? It is one thing when a small group of five to ten people gathers around in an intimate setting. It is another thing when you see thousands of people around and, of course, only some of them, who have the technical ability to speak and so forth.

Answer: I think it does not matter. To me it seems the opposite: when a large group of people from all countries admire the system that they are a part of, the goal that they move toward—this is of great help.

I don’t think that here there is any room for dilution or distance from the goal or confusion in moving forward. Not at all. I like what is happening. I think that this is key for our proper development.

The world is moving to ensure that people and all humanity rise above their worldly, shallow, and petty bourgeois image, enclosed in the borders of countries, small groups with personal teachers. We see that this is already breaking down because it should be much larger, steeper, and moving toward the Creator.

#Epidemic of coronavirus, #quarantine—similar to exodus from Egypt, we are preparing to leave Egyptian #ego-slavery—for unification. When we begin to feel our #unity, it means that we left Egypt and came to the land of Israel, to a desire directed straight to the Creator, Isra-el (Yashar-Kel).

The Creator purposely broke the desire He created into many pieces in order to reveal egoism in them (in us), how much everyone thinks of himself. Closeness with the Creator comes through closeness with people, if the intention is to be close to the Creator then He begins to reveal Himself in closeness with the people!

Egypt means caring for oneself, Israel, caring for others and for the Creator, although the Creator does not need anything! The only way to bring Him pleasure is by loving His creatures. The Creator gives me a sign: if I’m thinking of others, then I am striving for the Creator.

Egypt—our current state, when everyone is inside their egoism. But there is the “Land of Israel”—desire for the Creator. Transition from Egypt to the land of Israel, from one desire to another, is called the exodus from Egypt. Pesach (#Passover) from the word “pasach”—”transition.”

Pesach means the end of Pharaoh’s power, exodus from egoism, the authority of the earthly, corporeal nature. Pharaoh rules over the whole of man, besides one thought, one point, one desire, in the heart that unites us with the Creator. We must turn to the Creator through this point and ask Him to pull us out.

Check the statistics: the places where people are close, feeling as part of one society, there are a lot fewer casualties from Coronavirus. The more society is divided, the more are the victims of the virus. As, for example, in a society divided by hatred of the Orthodox Jews toward those different from them!

From My Facebook Page Michael Laitman 3/31/20

The resurgence of anti-Semitism on the fringes of society marks the onset a new wave of Jew-hatred. Anti-Semitism does not develop linearly, but in waves, each one higher than the former. Therefore, we should expect the wave that’s coming now to be stronger, crueler, and more pervasive than even the wave that struck before the outbreak of COVID-19. Our protection against it is, has been, and always will be unity, but for the purpose of setting an example of unity, not for the purpose of saving ourselves.

The coronavirus shows me my egoism: where I need to tame it and where to engage it correctly.

And by using the restrictions that the virus places upon me correctly and following the instructions of the health department and the government, I show the Creator that I am ready and capable of fulfilling His treatment program and that through it, I want to reach new relationships in society. This is how I actually advance toward them.

Try doing so and you will see how it will organize you from within, straighten you up, and direct you. People are not to blame for the pandemic and neither are the viruses or the governments or doctors. It is the Creator who directs us through all these restrictions to the precise trajectory that leads to Him. This is what is happening now.

Remedy for coronavirus

Question: To date, is isolation the only remedy for coronavirus?

Answer: We were in such relations with each other even previously, although it was not so obvious. We just did not have anything to hold onto. If I had some kind of device to point at everyone and choose to communicate with this one and not with that one, then I would do so. In principle, even without the virus, we look at each other all our lives: whether to communicate with this one or not and at what distance.

Question: What questions should a person who is currently sitting in isolation at home ask himself? There are already hundreds of thousands or even millions.

Answer: This virus shows how badly we treat each other. We must necessarily change our relations and then immediately everything good and kind in the world will be restored.

Question: Are you sure that a person can ask himself such questions and come to the conclusion that we treat each other badly? Can a virus cause such thoughts?

Answer: In Kabbalah, in particular in the book “Prophets,” it is described that humanity can come to terrible states when people will literally eat each other. So we need to think about that as well. Today, we are still in a beautiful, generous state where we can change ourselves and not allow this to happen.
