Life Doesn’t End with Death

760.2The living conditions of the last generation require every member of society to know how this society operates, for what purpose it exists, and in what form it should exist.

He must understand that there is no other way than the way nature advances us and affects us from all sides, and our duty is to consciously move toward the right goal of our development, without making mistakes.

The very first thing a person should learn and explain to others is that peace in society, peace on the planet, and peace in each country depend on each other. We see the shattering that the world is in today, what conflicts countries are involved in, and how it affects every person. There are still people who are dissatisfied with the country and are trying to change the government in it.

We need to understand that there is only one way to fix the world; otherwise, we will face the same problems and wars all the time. Therefore, it is so necessary to spread the wisdom of Kabbalah, which explains the structure of the world and the purpose of its existence and discusses the possibility of achieving this goal in the only way: increasing mutual connection between all people.

Only in this way will we be able to come to a good life and not just live comfortably until the end of our days, and after us through the flood, but to achieve eternal life. No one dies, because there is no death; there is only a change in the form of our existence. Time after time, our form is renewed in many cycles of life.

People have always dreamed of eternal life. It is only out of desperation that a person tries not to think about how short life is and how much suffering there is in it. We have to start getting closer to each other; otherwise, the world has no future.

In this sense, a person is more unhappy than an animal because the animal does not know that it will die and does not make any plans for the future. A person knows that death is ahead and still continues to live and move toward it—a completely disgusting state.

What a relief it would be to know that life does not end and that there is life after death. Our universe is infinite and eternal. It is time to say goodbye to the communist idea that a person has nothing in life but an animal body. The animal body of course will die, but everything else in us, human spirit, will remain. We have the opportunity to correct our soul, our inner part, the non-disappearing human self, and belong to eternity.

Rise Above I Feel Good or I Feel Bad

928Faith above reason requires a special mind. The fact is that the man of this world: you and I, each of us, is built out of egoism, the desire to enjoy, inside of which he feels the whole of reality.

We feel only what can bring us pleasure or, conversely cause suffering, that is, plus or minus relative to our egoistic desire to live pleasantly.

However here a special approach is required by us: I do not want to feel what is pleasant or unpleasant to me, but I try to break away from this dependence, rise above it, and evaluate reality regarding what is good or bad for others. After all, in this way I will begin to see what is outside of me. Otherwise I don’t see anything, the whole world for me is only what determines my own egoistic benefit.

By this I limit myself very much and do not go beyond the animal that thinks only about its stomach, or am like a small naive child who understands only his own pleasure and does not take others into account.

Then the child grows up, and he seems to begin to take care of others, to see and understand the world better. But in fact, we still do not see the world, but simply expand the field of our interests more and more and we can assess what will benefit us and what will harm us.

The sensor with which we perceive reality is created from a single desire to enjoy, and this must be realized. We live inside our egoistic desire, and this is called the creation of this world. In fact, there is no this world, the future world, the upper worlds; there is one reality that depends only on our perception, on our attitude to what is happening.

There are some phenomena in the world that we do not feel at all, because our perception is determined only by what is good or bad for us. We just don’t notice anything else.

If the signal is not picked up by my egoistic sensor, the desire to enjoy, neither as positive nor as negative, I do not feel it at all. Maybe something big is happening around me, but I don’t see anything.

Kabbalists who have attained the upper world say that it is right here. We don’t need to fly somewhere to the other end of the universe, to another galaxy, all the worlds are already here, next to us.

Only we don’t feel them, as we perceive reality only by one narrow parameter: “I feel good” or “I feel bad.” It turns out that the whole reality is limited only by my primitive egoistic interest.

But how can I see more, feel more, understand more, and start coming out of my cocoon? This is possible if I rise above the feeling of “I feel good” or “I feel bad” and acquire the quality of bestowal, the one that is called faith. Then I will feel everything not relative to my own benefit, but in relation to others.

If I begin to evaluate reality in this way, then I rise above myself and gain a new sense organ: faith above reason. Thus I get out into a new, external perception of reality, independent of my egoism. I will be able to feel what others feel outside of me, and thus my view becomes relatively objective, depending on how far I can separate myself from my own interest.

I begin to see the objective reality that I was able to reveal: 125 spiritual degrees, five upper worlds, and gradually develop my view until I see everything that is outside of me. And what is outside of me is called the Creator (Bo-re), that is, “come and see.” Now, I don’t see anything in my desire to enjoy, but I have the opportunity to attain the Creator, the reality that is outside of me.

Then I will understand where I really live, what nature is, and what is happening to me. Therefore, this technique is called Kabbalah (reception), because it teaches how to get a sense of all this boundless reality. And a person who has developed such feelings is called a Kabbalist because he perceives reality objectively, not distorted in his egoistic perception, but as it really is.

Even the very first exit from your egoism allows you to feel that a higher, spiritual reality exists! Thus I begin to understand where I am, what for and why, what process I should go through, what state to reach. And before that, we are completely blind, insensitive, and have no way to look above our egoism. Only faith above reason allows us to break out of it.
