In the News (ati): “Interesting Words From Other Languages We Wish Existed In English” “Mamihlapinatapei, Yagan (language of Tierra del Fuego)

“This word is mentioned in the Guinness Book of World Records as the most succinct word, and is also considered the hardest word to translate. Roughly, it means ‘the wordless, yet meaningful look shared by two people who both desire to initiate something but are both reluctant to start.'”

Question: What is the depth of the word?

Answer: The word is the universe, the word is everything. “In the beginning was the Word.” In general, this word is “Yod-Hey-Vav-Hey.”

This is the four-letter name of the Creator that explains the four steps through which the upper emanation descends on His creation. And everything else comes from this word.

Question: If you say that everything else comes out from it, then is this word in every word, in every action, in general, in everything?

Answer: In everything! “Yod-Hey-Vav-Hey” includes absolutely everything.

Question: What is this magic? What kind of secret is it? What are these four letters that are in everything, in absolutely everything?

Answer: This is the name of the Creator. That is, it includes the four stages of the expansion of the light from the Creator Himself to all creations.

Question: Does the light exist practically, in every word, in every action, and in everything?

Answer: Yes. And this word, the name of the Creator,  includes all the words, practically everything, and everything that happens.

Question: These are four letters. What does the first letter “Yod” – “י” mean?

Answer: “Yod” is the source of the light. “Hey” – “ה”is the expansion of the light. “Vav” – “ו” is its descent downward. And the last “”Hey” – “ה” is the clothing of the light in the lower ones that already exist.

Question: It is said that it is forbidden to pronounce the name of the Creator. What is meant by this?

Answer: In principle, you cannot pronounce it in any way. No matter how hard you try. This is because they are letters. And the word itself is not a word. It is just a code. “Yod-Hey-Vav-Hey” is a code.

Question: And when it is said that it is forbidden to pronounce the name of the Creator?

Answer: It means that it is forbidden to try to name His action. Because, in principle, it is hidden from a person. So do not try to do it. Forbidden means impossible.

Michael Laitman, On Quora: “Do people who go out to space and look at the Earth from afar undergo any kind of special change?“
Indeed, people who go out to space and view the Earth from afar come back differently.

By detaching from us even for a short period of time, they come back with a different opinion about how we should relate to life.

They can then no longer negatively impact others because of their newly-gained global and integral perspective of everyone and everything: that we are small creatures living on the same small planet. Accordingly, they disagree with the negative connections we have established, where we exploit and harm each other day after day.

I think that we would transform our reality and our world if we could send us all—the whole of humanity—out to space and bring us all back. Doing so would pull us out of our current perceptual bubbles, and we would gain a whole new perspective outside of these bubbles.

Then, after exiting our previous bubbles, we would understand that life could be completely different.

We would then agree to change ourselves. We would even do so against our own will because we would gain a new lens through which we would view reality.

We would then become more mature and understand that it is incredibly childish to constantly struggle with one another in our limited lives here on Earth. Such a change of perspective to a globally-inclusive view of ourselves and our world would lead us to a major change for the better.

Based on the video “Do People Who Go Out to Space and View the Earth from Afar Undergo Any Special Kind of Change?” with Kabbalist Dr. Michael Laitman. Written/edited by students of Kabbalist Dr. Michael Laitman.

Question: Should we intentionally perform unnecessary actions; should we make mistakes on the spiritual path?

Answer: No, absolutely not! We must only move forward! We will still make mistakes along the way. But these will be potential errors that will point us in the direction, like a rocket that is moving on the right course and corrects where it has strayed a couple of degrees from its course in order to return to the flight line again. That is the only way.

Question: Do unnecessary actions mean performing some wrong action in order to recognize it later?

Answer: No, never! Never will a wrong action lead you to correction. But if you do the right thing, you will find a mistake on the way, which you will correct and advance further.

This mistake will not be a mistake but an even more refined direction. With the help of mistakes, bigger resolution opens up to you all the time. You get more and more closely focused on the goal.

Question: Does the visual picture of our world disappear when you can feel spiritual forces?

Answer: It does not disappear anywhere. If you really want to know this, you need to change yourself. Do not be prejudiced about what you are offered, but accept and try to implement it.

Question: What if someone looks at it from the outside and wants to understand the specifics of a person’s change?

Answer: It will not be possible for an onlooker to see or find out anything! Only if you start going inside. Even at the very beginning of the path, you will still be confused and will not know what is what.

But in the process, when you yourself create within you the qualities of reception and bestowal, and they arise in you in the opposite form, one against the other, you will internally be able to begin to connect them together. On the basis of their symbiosis, you will build what is called your soul, and you will begin to reveal in it the upper forms of existence, the upper dimensions.

You and no one else! Only you will see what you have to see. And it is so for each one.

Question: What are the methods of transmitting spiritual information beside texts and sounds?

Answer: In addition to texts and sounds, there may be a direct connection between two people, what is called a common screen.

Comment: But you said that you can pass by a person who is in spirituality and you do not need to talk to him, you can establish a connection with him anyway. Just like when connecting two modems: one sends a signal, and the other receives.

My Response: Yes, you can say that. First, there is a rough adjustment with a common screen, and then it becomes gradually more accurate.

Question: But in our sphere, on the earthly level, spiritual information is not transmitted in any way?

Answer: No, of course not. You do not have these tools. Can you pour water over electric wires? They are completely different qualities.

Comment: Scientists report that the Gulf Stream is weakening and some project that Antarctica will likely be the only habitable continent by the end of the century if climate change continues its trajectory.

My Response: There could be an ice age for Europe. It would be worse in England than in Siberia. That is, Europe will practically freeze. And they won’t be able to do anything, no gas will save them. Terrible climate change is coming!

It is not about greenhouse effects, it is not about an oil slick or ocean littering. It is our common absolute opposite of nature—spiritual.

There is only one solution: stand up kids, in a circle, take each other’s hands and be good children. Then gifts will immediately fall from the sky. A bonbonniere for everyone!

If you don’t want to be in true inner friendship with each other, in balance with nature, and come to agreement and reveal the Creator, then rain and snow and then the scorching sun, floods, and floods mixed with fires will fall on you.

There will be nothing to eat, nothing to drink. You will walk around with sticks and fight each other! This is what Kabbalah predicts if there is no normal correction of our nature.

Question: Hundreds of Israelis opened their mailboxes and found envelopes with money, 400-500 shekels, and a note: “Use this money to your heart’s content.” It turned out it was homework in abundance courses.

The idea of the courses is simple: If a person shares his wealth with others, then the wealth returns to him many times over. The course aims to change the mindset for the sake of attracting money. One of the tasks is to hand out envelopes with money and expect it to return in large amounts.

Is this formula supposed to work? What do you think of it?

Answer: No. Man is egoistic and he thinks only of himself. Even if he gives something to someone, he still thinks that it will return to him with benefit many times. Well, he can try it once.

Comment: But you say that one way or another we must develop this quality of bestowal in ourselves or receive it somehow.

My Response: We cannot develop it because we do not have any data or any properties for this.

Question: What is the difference in conveying Kabbalistic information in Hebrew and in Russian?

Answer: Kabbalistic information can only be conveyed properly in Hebrew because words and definitions in this language originate from spiritual states.

The fact is that Hebrew emerged from the attainment of the upper world. This language, as such, did not exist before, just as the people of Israel did not exist before the group of Abraham started to reveal the upper world, because it was due to its revelation that everything started to develop below. All this appeared from the contact with the upper world. From there came numerous religions, philosophies,
sciences, and so on.

Hebrew is the language that emerged in Adam during the revelation of the upper world. He began to write, explain, and teach his students in it. Twenty generations from Adam to Abraham studied according to his book Angel Raziel (Raziel HaMalach) and other sources. Mainly, all information was conveyed not in writing but orally.

Then gradually, according to the attainment of the upper world, it entered written sources. In such a way, the horizontal and vertical lines of the letters express combinations of the qualities of bestowal and reception, and the dots form vectors of the connection of these two forces. Therefore, each letter in Hebrew signifies a combination of both forces in the spiritual object it expresses.
