Today we will gather for Unity Day with my students from the whole world.
We will have a lesson, workshop, and will sing songs to melt each other’s hearts, connect them into one, single whole and attain the state “as one man with one heart.” We await everyone!
The Fed is raising rates, causing capital outflow from developing countries, rise in debt, and slowing global economic growth in Turkey, India, Chile, Philippines, Egypt, Nigeria, Columbia, Argentina, China, and Brazil
The global economic crisis is starting at the outskirts of humanity.
Periods of mankind’s development replace one another: the liberal order is declining and the conservative period is emerging.
It’s time to agree that society requires correction, only then followed by independent existence—upbringing about the need to unite in spite of our ego

Question: What should a person do if he is overwhelmed with feelings but wants to remain in a practical neutral point and continue to work scrupulously with the group and with the Creator?
Answer: He should collect all his positive and negative thoughts, qualities, and actions and understand that the middle line is built on their correct combination. In fact, it does not exist. It appears only if a person builds and supports it, otherwise, it immediately disappears.
There are only plus and minus in the creation. Between them you must create such a resistance, a pressure, a motor that would work from these two poles.
Question: The group is a tool leading to the Creator. There also is the quality of bestowal that we call “the Creator.” It is clear how to work with a group. But how should we work with the Creator? Is there some kind of interconnection, relationship system?
Answer: If friends in the group correctly connect with each other, then in its inner strength, in the correct combinations, there will be that place where the quality of the Creator is revealed.
The quality of the Creator is interesting in the fact that relative to us, He is revealed as perfection, consisting simultaneously of both plus and minus. We will be able to understand this only when He is revealed.
Question: Is this the reason you say that there is the nature of a person, on which we should not apply pressure, but just build bridges of love above it and these states exist together? Is this the revelation of the Creator?
Answer: This is the middle line since both forces emanate from Him.

Question: To do something against the Creator, does this mean against His desire to please the created beings?
Answer: You could say this, or you could say that you disagree with His oneness. He exists, and you exist. This is where a split occurs into absolute atheists who assert that no one exists except man and people who say that there is no one but the highest power, and between them is everything else. Man himself does not really comprehend where he is in it. All religions and beliefs are concentrated between these two points.
Kabbalah says that we exist unconsciously.
As humankind developed, it was considered that only we exist, and the Creator is a purely psychological picture. But now we are gradually coming to the need to reveal the Creator, to comprehend and reach Him.

New Life #132 – Mass Media, Part 2
Dr. Michael Laitman in conversation with Oren Levi and Nitzah Mazoz
Summary
The mass media could transmit a soccer game on TV according to the integral approach and teach all the viewers about the value of unity and connection. The killing of soccer fans in stadiums indicates that we have reached the edge of human development based on egoistic competition. Marx realized that our capitalistic society based on egoistic consumerism would ultimately lead us to dissatisfaction and despair. He predicted that humanity would turn toward cooperation and full connection between everyone. The American god is collapsing as human desire changes and we increasingly ask ourselves questions regarding the meaning of life. Where is our happiness beyond a proper standard of living? When the inclination is toward connection, there can be no hatred between the fans at all. The players will educate the viewers by modelling how to nullify the self and serve the group. The role of the coach will be to educate the team members to be as one, integral unit. The commentators in the studio could speak about mutual understanding, connection, coordination, and interpersonal harmony. Nature is pushing us to find unlimited happiness and satisfaction in the connections between us, and the mass media has an important role to play in our evolution.

The purpose of life: to merit a personal adhesion with the Creator —OR lead the masses to achieve adhesion with the Creator!
The more developed humanity is, the more it feels that precisely Jews obstruct attainment of happiness—and it must demand for the Jews to correct something since they are guilty that the world is bad. And Jews must realize that they have a wisdom that can make the world perfect.
Do not replace hate with love—you will destroy love! You should keep all that is bad, but learn to cover it with good, with love. To cover means to maintain their equivalence, to exist between them. Then you will stand on both legs, grow both of these qualities (in middle line).
If we don’t reveal to the world its egoistic nature and the method of its correction, Kabbalah, which the Jews hold, if we don’t teach the world correction, bring everyone to an eternal, perfect life, we will constantly be subjected to threats of annihilation. #Jews
We cannot act toward the Creator personally. Each one’s actions must pass only through the group, in the middle of which an essence called the Creator is revealed. Hence it is called BORE = BO – come and RE – see, reveal it in unity, above egoism.
The sequence of states leading to the Creator is:
love for friends > awe > faith > love for the Creator.
This is the only form in which He can be revealed. Otherwise, my aim is off.
The Creator is a single force attained inside the group’s unity.
By exerting to unite, we awaken a force that pulls us to the center of the group. Each one’s ego remains outside. To the degree of opposition of our ten egos (via a sphere) and points in the hearts that unite (inside the circle), we determine our spiritual height.

Question: Is Adam the first Kabbalist or a degree in spiritual attainment?
Answer: Adam is the spiritual system that we have to master, correct, and join.
In addition, 5,779 years ago there lived a man who was the first to attain this system. His name was also Adam. It is not a coincidence that his parents gave him this name; there are no coincidences in nature. He wrote the book The Secret Angel (Raziel HaMalach), which can be bought in the stores even today.
Question: Was 5,779 years ago the year of his physical birth or the year of his spiritual birth?
Answer: It is the year he attained the upper world and became a man (Adam).
Question: Do all Kabbalists agree with that?
Answer: There is no reason to argue. One who attains the upper world sees and feels it. We must acquire only those properties that make it possible to discover that this is so.
Question: Can people who attain the spiritual world feel not only the system of Adam HaRishon, but also that there was such a man as well.
Answer: By revealing the spiritual system, along the way, one becomes a part of all Kabbalists before him; somehow you get included in them and even understand and feel what they said, how they studied, and how they understood the system. One comprehends not the person himself, but his inner essence, qualities, his degree.
