A System that Emanates Goodness

962.8Comment: To convey all the information that Kabbalists talk about, we need to create a completely unique system.

My Response: In our world, we teach children how to adapt to it, to study and understand it. As a result, they gradually master this world and use it to the maximum. Although they often use it incorrectly and end up suffering, it is still possible to educate a person.

You take a little “monkey” who knows nothing and understands nothing and turn it into a rational human being who can navigate this world and adapt it to himself. We can do the same to a person in relation to the spiritual world. For this, we have the wisdom of Kabbalah, which explains how we should act.

We are instructed to build a new society. But how do we build it? Let’s start by modeling it together.

Question: But the main problem people face is how to implement this system. It is very difficult to convey this information. Suppose someone opens a website. What happens step by step? What do they encounter?

Answer: It should be a kind, welcoming website where a person enters and learns about kindness, about the correct connection with all people in the world. He learns how to interact correctly with himself and with others and begins to understand how necessary this is and how it is the only correct solution.

Examples from nature, from human society, and from all kinds of systems at various levels, whether inanimate, vegetative, or animate, are provided to him, so he can see how to build correct relationships on the human level. This is not something unattainable.

The Society of the Future: Caring for One Another

963.4Comment: There are many sites where our information is presented. But you are talking about a completely different stage when a person doesn’t just visit a site to get information but absorbs warmth from it.

My Response: Of course. We must make the surrounding environment in relation to each of us, like a game of Tamagotchi, a virtual pet that needs to be fed on time, put to sleep, and constantly cared for. But this egoist, their Tamagotchi, is always demanding and demanding from them.

However, we need to create a slightly different game, where the surrounding society becomes my pain, my “baby.” I depend on it, I love it, I care only for it because, to me, it is the most important thing, just as a child is to a mother for whom nothing else in the world exists. Nature has made us this way.

And here we must reach this state on our own. However, by ourselves, we can do nothing; we must come to the point of truly desiring it. And then we will feel the need for the upper light, which will bring us this correction.

Reaching such a state is practically a game. At this stage, we are not yet drawing the upper light, as we must attract it through our desire.

We must create such a game-like connection between us in which you would constantly receive inspiration, a sense of importance, and necessity from others—where they would excite you, provoke you, pull you forward to such an extent that you would feel envy, anger, and greed, and you would ask yourself why you don’t have what others do.

This is how your aspiration for the upper should be.

Create an Adapter Between Us and Nature

959We need to create an online system that conveys the atmosphere described by Kabbalists, the atmosphere that should prevail in the society of the future. We need to establish a virtual community, open to everyone, where a person can learn to live according to spiritual laws and principles.

This community should naturally be friendly and include interactive, game-like elements. Through this learning process, a person would gradually come to understand what nature is, why it influences them the way it does, why they feel discomfort due to being opposite to it, and how they can change to feel better.

This is essentially a system for adapting a person to nature. We exist within nature, but we don’t realize how opposite we are to it, which is why we constantly suffer. Creating such an adapter between us and nature is exactly what we need.

Light Through the Group

165Question: How do you yourself receive light through the group? Let’s say we have to nullify ourselves toward our friends. How does this happen to you?

Answer: I also have to nullify myself internally toward the group.

Comment: But you have a completely different process of nullification since you feel and know the spiritual system.

My Response: It doesn’t matter. I still nullify myself before them, that is, before that spiritual image, before the appearance, before the spiritual vessel, that my students represent.

In fact, they are internally connected to each other into one single whole, very powerful, infinite, and perfect. I nullify myself in relation to this internal unity.

Their connection, their love, the fact that the Creator wishes to see them this way and holds them at this level, I feel all of this within my friends, within the group, and, you could say, within all of humanity.

Although it is a bit harder to imagine, in essence, this is the case. Otherwise, we cannot connect with the collective soul, the place where the Creator resides.

I do not nullify myself in relation to each of these individuals based on their external traits. They may be small, beginners, or egoists. I nullify myself not before their outward expressions, but in relation to the inner divine desire and fulfillment that exists within each of them, within every person in the world. But they are unaware of this.

It All Depends on the Student


254.02No one in the world is ready to hear Kabbalistic information. Everyone wants to hear information about how to get something, not information on how to give. The fact is that we are built in such a way that we are only ready to receive. “Give away? First of all, I have nothing to give. Second, who should I give it to?”

That is, Kabbalah is entirely different information. It is perceived in the reflected light, in the desire to give, in the desire to love. When such a desire arises, this information enters you and you open up. Otherwise, you are closed up.

To the extent the desire to be connected with others, to love them, and to give them comes from you, to this extent the light from all of them enters precisely into this desire of yours. How can a beginner have such a desire?

Comment: But you give such interesting lessons to the beginners, you find such expressions, such explanations.

My Response: It depends on the audience. Sometimes I hear something interesting and know how to work with it. But this happens very rarely. As a rule, this happens right at the lesson, when I see people, feel them, and according to this have appropriate associations.

Comment: You say that everything depends on the audience you communicate with. For beginners you give one thing, and for others you give another, but you still feel the desire.

My Response: I cannot help it. That is for sure. I cannot sit before beginners and give them complex information and vice versa. That is why the lessons are different. It is not I who determines this but the students.

Completely Different Logic

219.01Question: When you share information with someone, do you not have a sense of its consumers to better understand what they want?

Answer: In the article “Prophecy,” Baal HaSulam writes that he asked the Creator to lower him from the high level he was on so he could write something for people and they would understand what Kabbalah is, get closer to it, and use it. After all, Kabbalah is a purely practical science that needs to be implemented within oneself. How successful he was is a question.

When we read his works, we gradually begin to understand his style and his greatness. He managed to express vast spiritual volumes, properties, and actions very beautifully with a small number of words.

But I do not think he was satisfied with himself. It seems to me that he would have liked to write in such a way that a person, after glancing at the page, would gasp, freeze, and stick to the text as to a picture that would enter him and imprint on him, like an external image on film. This is how Kabbalistic material should be imprinted.

Light is reflected on a person’s desire. Moreover, the difference between the desire and the light is minimal so that the image can be transferred from the light directly to the egoistic desire that is opposite to it.

I do not think Baal HaSulam achieved this. Many read, but understand nothing. People who know Hebrew perfectly, with a university education, come to me and ask: “What is this about?” They cannot connect words into sentences because it is a completely different logic.

I remember myself. I did not understand the structure of the phrase itself: it seemed to be predicate-predicate-predicate, without a subject or verb. That is, it is illogical both in spelling and in vocabulary. So we still have to work as well.

Everything Depends on Dissemination

738We can see how natural cataclysms can worsen our lives in a domino effect. Nature has a lot of such surprises in store. However, this is not the ingenuity of the Creator; rather, it is our delayed development that provokes forces acting negatively upon us.

We must understand that we need to rethink our philosophy of life regarding where such suffering leads us and what it awakens in us. We must not lose ourselves in oblivion. After all, natural disasters remind us how small a human being is, how insignificant our life is, how we all exist on the fragile crust of the Earth beneath which a massive internal volcano rages, and above us, there is just a thin atmosphere, and beyond that cosmic cold.

Where are we really, and what do we exist within? Let’s take a moment to consider whether there is a way out. The problem of humanity is that it does not see a way out and therefore seeks oblivion.

This is why we must disseminate the wisdom of Kabbalah as effectively as possible because everything happening to us originates from a specific source and serves a specific purpose. Every event is intentional, pre-calculated by nature, and compels us to act.

Nature as a whole is a single, enclosed system that drives us toward perfection, and we must recognize this. We have the opportunity to attain this perfection, this harmony, with all of nature.

When humanity gains the understanding that everything happening is preordained by nature solely to push us forward and that we have the ability to do so correctly and intelligently, then people will no longer seek oblivion. They will have an alternative. Right now, however, they have none.

In its current state, humanity relies on God, on some supernatural forces: “Whatever will be, will be. In the meantime, I will enjoy myself.” “Let’s party and drink, and after that, the flood.” If there is no other way out, at least we can numb ourselves for today and not think about what will happen tomorrow.

But if you tell a person that tomorrow will be bad and yet there is a way to make it good and that they do not have to sacrifice anything for it, that they do not have to suppress themselves or deceive themselves, but: “Look at how together we can make everything wonderful, good, and joyful”—then humanity will have an alternative. And in that case, it will no longer reject this opportunity.

Everything depends on the dissemination of Kabbalah; this is the only issue. We must spread it as quickly and effectively as possible. Ultimately, it turns out that it is not humanity that is to blame for what is happening but rather those who possess and understand this wisdom.

Listen or Watch

631.3Question: In Kabbalah there is listening and watching. You have repeatedly mentioned that in the past the Torah was learned by heart, meaning it was listened to. Is the difference in perception really that significant?

Answer: The point is that when you load yourself with data, you can freely operate with it and act accordingly. Imagine that, like a computer’s memory, you had all spiritual literature embedded within you.

Not just memorized words and phrases but fully integrated in accordance with your own internal program like a computer filled with connections allowing you to extract, explore, and study information as needed.

For example, I recently had a discussion about the nature of envy, and I had to elaborate on the topic for half an hour: what kind of human trait it is, how it drives a person toward a goal, whether it is good or bad, how it manifests in a group, in a family, within oneself and in relation to the Creator, and so on.

Because I have accumulated a significant amount of Kabbalistic material, I never prepare for lessons or recordings. I arrive, hear the topic from the host, and immediately engage in discussion.

This improvisation is even more enjoyable for me than preparing in advance as I experience various new associations in the moment through the setting and the act of speaking itself. This process goes live immediately, and requires a certain mental effort, a bit of nervous, stressful inner realization. And I love that.

This is possible because I have stored the necessary material within me. I can instantly recall what is said about mutual hatred, envy, egoism, vanity, and other qualities that help a person internally structure himself and achieve a goal.

It is said that envy, hatred, power, vanity, and similar traits drive a person toward their purpose. These qualities exist within us for a reason; they are meant to help us achieve something great when used correctly, not to suppress others, but to learn from them and continually rise higher and higher.

I operate with this knowledge immediately. But if, at that moment, I had to start reading and searching through books like some philosopher, that would not be what Kabbalah demands from a person in their spiritual advancement. In other words, this knowledge, these informational records must be within us.

I am speaking about a Kabbalist-scholar and not about someone who simply moves forward internally. Such a person does not need this; they only need connection with others in order to restore the structure of the collective soul. There, they will perceive their own inner spiritual world and their eternal movement.

Question: So does that mean one does not need to memorize material?

Answer: No, people do not need anything at all except to correct the division between themselves that occurred during our creation.

The “Magic Powder” that Connects Opposites

522.03Question: Mutual responsibility means mutual care and connection. How do you connect opposing, conflicting poles in this?

Answer: Everyone can remain in their own religion, as Baal HaSulam writes, in their own faith, culture, and beliefs. That does not matter. Above all this, like the organs of a single body, we can be opposite to one another, have different opinions, and yet still unite, as our common nature compels us to do.

Question: How will this connection be expressed if we all keep our different opinions?

Answer: It is by the fact that we will strive to ensure that all our actions always lead us toward mutual responsibility and connection.

Comment: If I go in one direction and you in another, it means we are going in different directions! And that is exactly what happens to everyone today.

My Response: Why go in opposite directions? Let us connect our paths!

Question: How can we do that if I want to go one way and you another? I think one way is good, while you believe in a different way.

Answer: That is because you are built one way and I am built differently, meaning we are different by nature, completely opposite even.

But now we are giving each person an education in the spirit of mutual responsibility.

That means that we obligate ourselves, despite our differences, to sit together and find a way to use these differences for our common success, for the benefit of our common goal. And we do this until we reach a state where we see that even your actions, though they may seem to go in the opposite direction of mine, still contribute to our mutual responsibility.

It cannot be otherwise! Nature itself is built in such a way that it consists of opposing forces and actions, yet in the end, they all help achieve balance.

Do wolves and sheep act in the same direction when one eats the other? And yet why does this exist in nature? Are “plus” and “minus” not opposites, where each acts in its own direction? What about pressure and vacuum, attraction and repulsion?

Everything consists of two opposites. There is no force that does not have its counterpart; it could not exist otherwise. We will not be able to achieve mutual responsibility unless all kinds of opposing forces unite within it.

Mutual responsibility is like a sphere, inflated and held together by all these opposing forces.

We need to gather all the forces that exist in the country, in the nation, in society, and in every individual—who himself exists thanks to many opposing forces—so that they all begin to act together. And what will unite them is the common law of mutual responsibility that stands above them all.

I will say one sentence that may tie everything together and lead to agreement: “He who makes peace in the heavens will make peace among us.” Let me explain. We will not find peace, harmony, or reconciliation between us unless it comes from the law of mutual responsibility, the universal, upper law of nature.

This is what is meant by “He who makes peace in the heavens.” That is, the reconciliation that exists at the height of mutual responsibility “will make peace among us.” And then we will see how all these opposing principles, vectors, and desires come together.

Without uniting opposing forces, ideas, and actions, mutual responsibility cannot exist. Otherwise it will turn into just one narrow movement. But if you want, not a small, isolated stream, but a unified space where all branches, factions, directions, and movements within the people, including political parties, come together, then you must elevate the principle of mutual responsibility above them all.

Anyone who opposes mutual responsibility as the upper principle acts as a destroyer. And this is not a matter of right or wrong. No one is redundant, not even if they are a Nazi or an antisemite. We have seen many times how they ultimately help us, like Pharaoh, who “brought the children of Israel closer to the Creator.”

There is no absolute evil or harmful force, we just need to see how all these forces, in the end, integrate with one another. Bringing them together is our true skill.

By uniting our two forces, we become human, Adam, “similar” (Domeh), to the upper nature.

Therefore mutual responsibility is not some narrow ideology within the people. It is a universal method, as Baal HaSulam writes, that must encompass the entire world.

Question: So do we have this magic powder called “mutual responsibility”? Do we take opposing things, sprinkle this magic powder over them, and they unite, just like opposite processes within one body, like inhaling and exhaling?

Answer: People are fundamentally opposite to one another in their entire way of thinking, in their character, habits, in everything. But through global and integral education that teaches that mutual responsibility is a requirement of nature, and that we are subject to this requirement, each person will be able to realize themselves in a form suitable for them, yet all in the direction of mutual responsibility!

And because of this everyone will find the right application for themselves and achieve complete fulfillment.

A Magnet to Which Others Will Be Attracted

944Baal HaSulam, in the “Introduction to The Book of Zohar,” writes that first and foremost, we must achieve a deep internal spiritual connection with one another in order to form a common vessel, a collective soul, in which the upper force can be revealed. Then, through the presence of this upper force within us, we will draw the rest of the world toward us.

If we rely on what we understand from the sources, our task is to elevate ourselves within this unified force, toward a common goal, toward attainment and the revelation of the Creator. The world will follow naturally, although we should not neglect dissemination.

Here, we can use a very interesting example. When you fly on an airplane, you are shown a safety video explaining how to act in an emergency. If you are traveling with a child, you must first put on your own oxygen mask and life vest before assisting the child.

Now, imagine that the plane is in a nosedive, and the flight attendant urgently instructs passengers to put on their masks and vests, emphasizing that they must first take care of themselves. Yet your natural instinct is to help the small child next to you, how can you possibly think of yourself first? Instinctively, you rush to protect the child.

Are the airlines correct in enforcing this rule? The answer is absolutely yes. If you are not alive, who will take care of the child?

Therefore, you must take care of yourself first. This is the strict order of correction. If there is no rescuer, then the drowning person will certainly perish. But if the rescuer is alive and has all the necessary means, they have the ability to save others.

Thus, after establishing a certain connection between ourselves and the world with our methodology, books, films, the Internet, and everything else we have created, our next step is to seriously elevate ourselves so that all the points in the heart unite and form a single, strong spiritual Kli (vessel). This Kli will become the magnet that draws others in. They will find us because we are already present in the global media with our materials.
