New Life #128 – Communication And The Sensory System

New Life #128 – Communication and the Sensory System
Dr. Michael Laitman in conversation with Oren Levi and Nitzah Mazoz

Summary

Today there is a transition from linear communication to whole, round, integral, and global communication. We are in a new evolutionary phase: the transition from subjective, animate, or individual desire and perception, based on our five senses, to mutual and integral desire and perception. The economic mode of communication that has driven the process of human development so far is collapsing. A person dies without a connection to the natural environment. People feel empty and lonely and turn to drug abuse as a result of the despair they experience within this system. We are in the process of developing a new perceptual sense and a common system. The communication between us is being upgraded, expanded, and perfected, not by force and control, but by developing a satisfying, emotional feeling that the whole world is connected and is mine. Communication is the basis for the feeling of our existence. A new culture will develop out of the feeling that we are one.

Yet the suffering will compel us to correct the ego through the application of Kabbalah.
#Davos2019 #Macron #Trump

Leading stakeholders are withdrawing from #Davos 2019. “Globalization and cooperation of nations” aren’t interesting.
#Globalization is proving unattainable due to human ego.
Development pushes us to unite, but ego divides us.

Bnei Baruch Women’s Conference

Dr. Michael LaitmanFrom My Facebook Page Michael Laitman 1/14/19

This weekend, I spoke at our international virtual conference on empowering women in 2019. I said what I always say at every opportunity when the subject comes up: After hundreds of years, women can finally come out from behind the scenes and from behind the modesty that surrounded them, to take over responsibility, management, promotion, and influence in all areas of life.

This coming year is unique in giving women around the world the opportunity to chart a new direction for humanity. All that is required of them, and all of us, is a tiny thing: to rise above the conflicts. Through compromise and connection, you can make the world a warm and loving home.

Dear women, do not miss this opportunity.

The Fear Of Death

laitman_566.02Question: I justify the Creator, but the only thing that I cannot justify is physical death. What should I do?

Answer: If it were not for the fear of death, we would have made a big mess in this world. Imagine if we were immortal. How much harm would a person cause himself and others? Then every day, like a Phoenix, he would rise again and it would be the same all over again. That is horrible!

Death is salvation. If not for the fear of death, a person would not do anything. He would very quickly bring himself to death.

The fear of death helps a person by forcing him to think about the meaning of life: “What for? What? Why? With what account do I end my life? Is there anything else but this?”

The most important question: “What are we living for?”

Remark: But no one asks about it anyway.

My Comment: Subconsciously, everyone does! Even children have this question.

Question: Would it be possible to educate people by explaining to them that death is a transition to another state?

Answer: Of course. Psychologically, you can do anything to a person and he will not be afraid of death.

Can A Kabbalist Decide Something At The Level Of This World?

laitman_600.04Question: How do you, a Kabbalist, feel the hand of the Creator through what is happening to you? Can you decide anything at the level of this world?

Answer: No, I cannot. I can only agree with what the Creator decides. All my work is on myself, not on changing the world or forcing the Creator to do something.

Question: So a Kabbalist does not decide anything? Does he have the ability to agree with what is happening to him? And is this the main decision?

Answer: Yes. Try it. Let’s see what kind of hero you will be. It only seems to you that changing the world is easier than changing yourself.

Remark: I understand that to agree is much harder.

My Comment: This is already good. This is a step toward heroism.

Dr Michael Laitman Twitter

Yesterday an international women’s virtual conference was held: “Creating the right, good environment.”
#Women today readily accept responsibility for the world’s #future.
For that they must rise above conflicts, make concessions and unite, turning the world into a warm home.

Don’t replace hatred with love—you’ll ruin the love!
It’s recommended to preserve everything bad, but learn to cover it with goodness, love.
Covering means maintaining their correspondence, being between them.
Then you’ll stand on two feet, growing both of these qualities.

What is required of me at the Congress?
To focus on the desire to reveal an inner connection that exists between all creatures. By revealing it, I’ll reveal all of creation and the Creator. For this sake I detach from myself, striving to immerse into and feel the reality of unity.

Mass immigration from the south is a threat to the US since it’ll bring democrats to power—forever.
Hence liberals desire migrants, no matter who they are. This gives them power over whites—and the USA will repeat the path of South Africa. The US has to focus on itself. America first!

The Torah tells a person about what is happening in him.
The point in the heart, Moses, is born from those who fled Babylon, but grows inside the ego—Pharaoh’s house.
Once ripened, he assesses Pharaoh as an evil ruler, separates from him, and then leads the people …
… all of one’s qualities, out of his rule.

Learn not to fear descents—the main thing is to keep aiming for the Creator, as if driving on a bumpy road, being thrown to and fro, but keeping going. Every descent and ascent is correction of desires. With every bump you are closer to the goal. Their number is limited.
The main thing is to aim for the Creator.

To receive correcting light, one must gain confidence in the friends’ mutual support. This is faith in the friends, not faith in the Creator. The way a drowning man clings to a log or a baby to its mom—that is how I’m confident in the friends, and by that ready to feel the Creator.

The crisis will compel the world to realize egoism as the reason for the crisis.
Revealing a need to eradicate the ego,
Compelling people to gather into groups to draw the force of correction—
to the degree of efforts to converge according to Rabash’s articles about the group.
Or to die.
But we can come together ahead of time, before the suffering.

Self-criticism and dwelling on oneself aren’t qualities of a person who works on himself, but one who follows his ego’s whims.
Seriousness of the work is revealed in maintaining the greatness of the goal inside you—of attaining bestowal to the Creator.
This is possible only “From love for the neighbor (group) to love for the Creator.”

Realization of ego’s evil, Adam’s question to the Creator, “Will my donkey and I really eat from the same bowl?”—will I enjoy only bodily fulfillment? Where is man in me?
The Creator: The ego’s evil will be revealed. You will then earn your bread in the sweat of your brow” …
—you’ll reveal the Creator and become human.
