Physiological Maturity

632.2Comment: According to Kabbalah, children between the ages of 9 and 13 should be educated in terms of interaction between the sexes.

My Response: It can be done earlier. Abroad, they practice this even in kindergartens.

Question: But today why do we teach the interaction of the sexes only at the level of sex education and do not talk about the internal relationship between a man and a woman?

Answer: Because we do not know what we need it for.

We know that a male meets a female to mate and reproduce. Like in fish, birds, and animals, the same thing happens in humans as part of the animal world.

We teach children about physiology. What else can we explain? About love?

Boys under 20 have a period when they internally mature to make special, big decisions in this life. In other words, not everything is allowed to them. In this life, they are allowed everything except for owning land, that is, except for something big, global, decision-making.

It is because during these seven years from 13 to 20 they have to learn from society what it means to be an adult, but an adult animal. In our time, this is who they become. Moreover, it is in our time that Kabbalah is being revealed, and not earlier. So it all fits perfectly.

People make various guesses that we physically mature early allegedly because we eat foods with pesticides, are affected by radiation, or something else.

Kabbalah, on the other hand, says that everything is based only on growing egoism, which causes us to mature earlier.

Mother And Child: Before And After Birth

626Question: Today doctors are against cesarean sections. They advocate this due to the fact that while the child is in the uterus he stays there in an absolutely sterile state. During the natural passage through the birth canal he receives the first protective dose of microbes.

Meanwhile during a cesarean section he is left to himself and is unprotected from the possibility of receiving various kinds of infectious diseases. Scientists say that in the case of a cesarean section there is no connection between mother and child. Why is that?

Answer: There are a lot of materials on this topic in Kabbalah. The fact is that childbirth is a huge, serious, and very important process as a mother pushes her child into the world.

If initially all her efforts were aimed at preserving this foreign body developing within her body, at suppressing its rejection, and at perceiving it as her most important organ, now there is a completely different connection of the mother to the child.

She now has to push out of herself what she kept in herself. And the child has a desire to get out of the mother, which was like a small prison and to push the walls. Such a mutual occurrence of dislike for each other generates mutual feelings in the future.

At first, in the inner world when the child is within the mother there is complete harmony between them and they understand each other and both suppress themselves: the child so as not to harm the mother and the mother so as not to harm the child. They suppress their egoistic qualities and interact correctly.

Then, during childbirth these egoistic qualities are as though turned on and the mother and child repel each other, and therefore diverge; the child is born. Moreover, the child turns his head down, which signifies the changes taking place in him. What was the main thing now becomes secondary.

And when a child is born, he already has a different need for a mother and that need exists on another level—feeding. He no longer feeds through the umbilical cord, but through the breast, which is at a completely different level, and instead of blood with milk. The mother’s blood turns into milk and as the child receives it in him, the milk turns into blood and flesh.

Childbirth And Breastfeeding

627.1Comment: Today, the trend of artificial feeding is very common. Women do not want to feed babies naturally. It is said that with artificial feeding, the mother does not have a feeling of love for the child.

Answer: It is natural. We know that love arises for someone who is dear. And since we are egoists, the one in whom we invest is dear to us. After all, you invest yourself, something of your own. And then part of what you invested in him is dear to you.

It turns out that it is not the child himself who is dear to you, but it is you who gave birth to him, raised him, and so on. Therefore, the more difficult the birth, the more the mother loves the child. And with a Cesarean section, this is not the case.

The same is true when breastfeeding. If the baby arrives as a result of a Cesarean section, then the milk may not appear, since the impulse toward it is given during childbirth. According to Kabbalah, all the hormones and everything that surrounded the baby in the uterus that created, guarded, and shaped him, rises up to the milk system, and then milk begins to be produced.

It is the system that took care of him internally that goes to the next level, and feeding begins. The milk is the same blood that has risen to a level at which a child can absorb it. Blood is the lower level, milk is the next.

Kabbalah says that a child born naturally should be nursed for up to two years, that is, 24 months. But this does not mean that the baby should be fed only milk.

In general, during the period of breastfeeding, the child should receive women’s milk, but not necessarily from his mother. There are many such examples in the Bible.

Through The Maternal Side

557Question: Why are diseases transmitted more often through the maternal side rather than through the paternal one?

Answer: In theory, this is how it should be because it is through the maternal side that everything is transmitted from person to person. The father only gives information, and the mother lays all the foundations of the material organism.

In Kabbalah, we study that the basis of reproduction, birth, and development of a child in our world or at the next degree on the spiritual level comes from Malchut, and this is the female part. Therefore, naturally, all problems, diseases, and especially all qualities are transmitted mainly from the mother. And much less from the father.

Alternately, in both the father and mother, there are also a father and a mother, an inner male and an inner female part. The male part from the father and the male part from the mother are joined together into the male part. The female part from the father and the female part from the mother, into the female part. Together they give their influence on the future fetus. This is stated in Kabbalah, but is already mentioned also in the sciences, such combinatorics.

This determines the sex of the child, its internal properties, its health, and illness.

Breaking Through The Shell Of Ignorance

559Question: Isn’t the current way of upbringing a theater of the absurd? We study a variety of subjects, the laws of mathematics, physics, and chemistry. And we are not taught who, for what, from where or why we are.

Answer: Obviously, and who can teach this? You can demand anything from teachers, but they weren’t taught this either. They don’t even know what to tell the children.

​​And children have a greater desire, a greater potential request than their parents. Who will tell them about it? After all, the parents also do not know anything about it; they are at a loss.

Parents today are unable to keep their child close to them. They can’t say anything. They have nothing to give! The child has such requests! Does anything change from the fact that the father knows higher mathematics or physics and the mother knows biology, gynecology or something else? Children don’t need this. They need to know the meaning of life!

But parents don’t know about it. Therefore, children look at them like they are dinosaurs living an animalistic life, doing household chores. “Well, go ahead. Just give me something to eat, you can’t fill me up with anything else anyway. Leave me alone!” That’s what a child demands from his parents. And he is right.

It’s the same at school. What can teachers give them if children have completely different demands? They don’t want knowledge in order to learn how to make money. First of all, they want to reach their I.

They unconsciously have such an inner need and feel that they cannot fill it, they kill themselves with drugs, parties, gatherings and even computer games in which they forget themselves, a different atmosphere that they create for themselves that helps them play.

They continue their childish game, because if you take an adult look at the world, this world is empty. It’s better to go back to the children’s community and stay there. This is what remains with them. Therefore they are immersed in computers, in something virtual, as disconnected from life as possible in order to deal less with the outside world.

Question: Does their internal request take on such negative external forms?

Answer: I don’t consider them negative. As a result, these requests will find their way out, their solution. They will break through the shell of misunderstanding, ignorance, and rejection, like an abscess. And people will find the answer that there is a method that allows you to see what you want.

When You Are Waiting With Horror For A Call

294.2Comment: Vladimir writes, “Dear Michael Laitman! I wanted to share my thoughts with you. My friend’s son is fighting in the current war. Recently I tried to do an exercise to imagine myself in the place of that friend. And I could not stand this exercise. Five minutes later, I found myself in a state of shock. After all, we exist in the same space with smartphones, this is a miracle of the 21st century, without which it is impossible to imagine modern life. And this item is on the table. Any call makes my heart skip a beat! My hand becomes like lead and the horror strikes with the fact that on a familiar number you might suddenly hear someone else’s voice, ‘Your son…’ And so on, second by second, day by day, I could not imagine it.”

Tell me, please, what kind of world do we live in? Before you really could somehow exist in these pauses, even terrible, terrible ones, until, God forbid, something happens; time went by, you lived. And now, the distance from the shot to the sensation has shortened so much.

My Response: I understand that.

Question: What is it? Tell me, why is this given to us today?

Answer: So that we can experience all this and determine how we really live, how we create our reality.

Comment: Our reality is like this.

My Response: So let us place all the people who command our reality in this reality.

Question: Those who are twisting all this, let them have such a feeling?

Answer: Yes, so that they sit in the room and wait for the phone call. And so that they have no opportunity to change anything! Leave them that way for a week. And then see what happens to them.

One should feel that these are his own children. It does not matter that his real kids are in London.

Question: Will the prayer of parents arise from this state?

Answer: Yes, it is natural. Even if they do not understand, the heart itself will react like this: “Please do not let anything happen to them!”

Question: And where is the Creator’s answer to all this? Let everything be over, that is enough! How long can we be imposed on?

Answer: The Creator will bring them to a state so that they actually turn to Him, and so that they do everything in this world that depends on them so that there is no war.

Question: You say “they,” do you mean practically all people?

Answer: All people, mainly parents, on whom this decision depends.

Question: So until this prayer is raised with sufficient force, it will continue, and we will be brought to prayer all the time?

Answer: Yes.

Find yourself and be yourself: Remember, there is no one else like you on Earth like you (Dale Carnegie).

Comment: But we spend our whole life fulfilling desires imposed on us from the outside. For the most part, we are not ourselves.

My Response: We, like little children, are constantly learning from others. Look at a little child. He constantly learns from adults and imitates them. You can call, let’s say, a cup by some other word, and he will repeat it after you and get used to this name.

If you teach him an action, he will try to repeat it. Then this habit will enter into his nature. He will instinctively prefer this action to others, even ones that are more reasonable and useful, because habit becomes second nature and by fulfilling its desires, he will enjoy it.

Therefore, we are all an imprint of the surrounding society and none of us is ourselves

Question: Isn’t it time for us to be ourselves? When can this happen?

Answer: Today there is already such a desire, but still in a small number of people who are beginning to ask themselves about the purpose of existence, about the seeming purposelessness of this world. Millions of people in the world are asking this question, but millions are not billions.

549.02Comment: Today, the education of boys and girls is reduced to only sex education. They do not have any other, more internal interaction.

My Response: Adults also reduce everything to this and believe that it is just necessary to teach children about safe sex and nothing more.

Question: Is this an internal flaw of adults?

Answer: I do not think so. I see everything that is happening in the world as one more stage for forward movement.

We should not be negative about things that are happening. We just need to understand the tendency, and if possible, explain it based on an understanding of its final result.

Then we will understand why today we are experiencing such events and not some other ones, and how we can, nevertheless, prepare children to advance more correctly to the goal that nature moves us to.

I hope that all the suffering that we are going through as parents, and also children in their own way, will allow us to open our eyes.

How Are Inclinations Of An Unborn Child Established?

547.01Question: Can a mother establish negative inclinations in a child who has not yet been born and has not yet been formed?

Answer: I think that the inclinations of an unborn child are established long before its conception. It is necessary to count not from pregnancy but from the way the parents themselves were formed as children, how they were brought up and how they went through life.

We also need to pay attention to what happens to them when they become adults. If they have bad inclinations, then, of course, they will somehow pass these inclinations on to their offspring, and not only in the form of informational data, but also with some kind of bias for implementing them.

Therefore, children with such inclinations must be surrounded from the very first days with very close care, given them the right education, so that they do not realize not only negative information data, but also the incorrect use of these inclinations in their parents, who have become, for example, criminals or socially dangerous elements.

Therefore, children with such inclinations should be surrounded from the very first days with very close care. They should be given the correct education so that they do not realize and implement in themselves, not only negative information data but also the incorrect use of these inclinations in their parents who have become, for example, criminals or socially dangerous elements.

Our Children Will Not Fight Wars

294.2Question: What is being recorded in the genetic code, in the future life, and in the character of children born at this time under the sign of war, under this shock?

Answer: A very clear understanding that war is actually absolutely alien to the world is being recorded in them. It does not bring anything useful to human society for sure. And the damage it causes cannot be justified in any way.

Children who understand that there is no place for war will be born! Who benefits from it? It does not give anything to anyone.

Question: Will it come from the shock that the mother who gave birth to the child experienced?

Answer: How will it be absorbed in the small children who have lived through all of it? They will live through this genetically, in connection with their parents who will experience the horrors of war and will be convinced that all of this is absolutely useless and causes pain for several generations.

Question: And children who are born now not under bombing, are they also under stress anywhere and everywhere?

Answer: Humanity is one single organism.

Question: So, does this apply to the entire generation that is being born? Even if life is just beginning within the mother, does this penetrate even into it?

Answer: Of course! All of it in a spiritual form! It is all floating in one information cloud.

This stress is universal and all-encompassing. The next generation, therefore, will not fight wars. It will not understand what we need them for. It will simply be confident that it is absolute harmful to everyone. And what is interesting is that there will be no need to convince him of this.

He will see that in interactions, trade, and the mutually complementation of each other in science, technology, commerce, economy, and so on, there is a direct benefit for humanity and not in nothing else.

Question: Is it the Creator who changes generations with such a sharp shock?

Answer: Yes, this is how it is changed, of course. Once we thought that this is possible with the help of a very long educational process. No, it gives no results. Look at the world. Who needs to fight with whom?

Question: What would you wish for the next generation?

Answer: To recognize what state they are in, what is important for the world, what develops the world, and where history pushes it. So much so that neither with the development of any weapons nor by anything else can you change anything. You are hurting yourself with this. People will understand this now from this entire campaign.

Question: Are you optimistic about the future generation?

Answer: I am generally an optimist if I believe in a bright future for humanity. Enlightenment is about to come to people.
