When I conduct a lesson, on one hand I am just a robot, on the other hand an “angel.” If you ask me if I would want to go out to a lesson every morning, I would answer: “No.”

I would prefer to do something else: I have things to write and talk about, interesting material to process.

I would like to give myself, perhaps, a vacation, to isolate somewhere far away, wander in nature and think about something of my own. But I am absolutely clear that I have no right to do so. That is, importance for me is the same as importance for others.

When you are in one connection, in one system with others, you cannot divide, whether it is better for you or better for them, or worse for you or worse for them. It is a common plate from which you all receive and fill up together.

Of course, strength comes from above, not from me. There is no heroism in a person; it is all arranged by the Creator.

I remember my teacher, who with difficulty, literally on all fours, would go to the lesson. How hard it was for him! Tired, eyes closing. At that time he was already 84 years old. I would prepare him strong coffee, cold water, and try to cheer him up somehow.

We would go down to the lesson with him, I would sit next to him, light a cigarette for him, serve him coffee, turn on the tape recorder, and I would see him come to life, simply come to life. For him, words were like tubes through which life-giving force would come to him. I saw how he would say “Ah!” and come to life, and in five to ten minutes, we would see a completely different person, who was already flying.

Of course, these are not one’s own forces, but the upper light that holds us.

Therefore I cannot attribute anything I do to myself; there is nothing of mine here, no merit of my own. When we will reveal the upper world, we will see that we have absolutely nothing to do with it. It is not you, nor anyone else, but the manifestation of a created desire that feels this way right now.

And then all these sensations: I, the others, he, we, all doubts, internal collisions, and fluctuations merge into one single whole when “There is none else besides Him,” besides the Creator. And it becomes absolutely clear to a person that he has nothing to do with any of it at all, neither good nor bad.

Therefore, to make yourself so transparent that you fulfill the upper will is the most reliable approach during the lesson. These are immense internal sufferings, doubts, mutual attacks of egoism against something else.

Gradually you reveal within yourself an even greater egoism and even greater evasions and justifications. It is natural. But this is precisely the opportunity to delve even deeper, and there, at the very depth, to discover the Creator Himself.

Question: What then is your choice?

Answer: To be like this, and nothing more, that is, absolutely transparent, non-existent. This is what complete merging entails, but it is achieved above egoism, which does not disappear.

We have reached out to the world with enough dissemination. We will continue to do this.

But we do not have that inner strength that we can show to the world so that it would grab it, so that it would subconsciously captivate it, and people would feel that here is a source of special energy, special intelligence, wisdom, methodology—a source of salvation. This is what is missing in us today. The world does not feel it.

Methodology? Yes. Logic? Yes. Philosophy of life? True. And the solution that we offer is in unity. We do not present this unity to the world. We are saying: “Let’s do everything together.” But this is not enough. We need to really show the world that this works, that it exists.

First we must show how to save ourselves by our own example, and thus help others to save themselves.

Question: What can we use to set an example?

Answer: People will feel it. This is about a person’s attitude toward themselves, the world, and about the governance of nature based on the inner harmony we will achieve. These are not physical forces, as we only see the results of their manifestation in the world.

Our relationships do not necessarily have to manifest outwardly; this is the first point. The second is that their outcomes will later be visible in how nature achieves balance, how relationships between countries and people stabilize, how we suddenly witness the benefits of cooperation, how various diseases in the world disappear, and how corruption and cruelty fade away.

All of this will be evident in people and in the connections between them. It will not depend on them directly. It is an inner connection that will be revealed naturally.

Comment: You say that we must spread the ideas of Kabbalah in the world and only through this will we progress.

My Response: That is correct, but you still must emphasize your inner connection in which the Creator should reveal Himself. One can only happen through the other.

Here we face a paradox where one seems to contradict the other. This contradiction must be removed because as a result of our populism, we come to neglect the real internal work toward unity upon which the success of everything depends.

On one hand, everything depends on our dissemination in the world, but only under the condition that we ourselves are strong internally.

It is now becoming evident that we must internally add a connection between us and in it achieve the clear revelation of the Creator according to the law of the equality of form. Then this will manifest in the world.

Comment: Scientists say that digitalization is accelerating, but the problem is that we do not know exactly where this express train is headed. We understand many processes will go faster and this will change our lives. We know nothing except the speed at which we are moving.

My Response: We have always developed this way. Has humanity ever ordered a program for its development? The Bolsheviks wanted to build communism. What came of it? Socialists with socialism, and Capitalists with capitalism. What came of it?

Humanity has never made any plans of its own and then implemented them when they voted and went to implement them and then had everything work out. It has never happened in my life or throughout history. And now we are doing the same thing. Only time is accelerating, nothing else.

Comment: If a person had the whole arsenal of tools and knew the way, would there always be some kind of error at the end?

My Response: What error? On the contrary, everything works out! The error is exactly the opposite.

Question: Why doesn’t this lead to even more destruction?

Answer: There are protective forces of nature that trip us, the foolish, and redirect the express train of history just in time. They put us on a different track so we do not plunge into the abyss altogether.

Question: So are we initially going down the wrong path?

Answer: We are still following the path nature leads us on. The fact that we agree with it or not speaks only about the comfort of this journey. You are riding in a cushioned carriage or riding on buffers between cars or riding on the roof.

Comment: At some point will fate turn you in a certain direction?

My Response: It will not turn you anywhere. It leads you where you need to go.

Comment: Researchers say many fear losing their jobs in this chaotic world when, with the development of technology, their professions will no longer be in demand.

My Response: This will happen anyway.

Comment: This fear generates dangerous trends in society, and they cannot be suppressed by force. Some experts say that people should not just be retrained and given another profession to replace the outdated one; they should be integrated into a system of continuous education throughout their lives.

My Response: That is right. This is what the science of Kabbalah has been saying for many years. We need to educate people and create huge enterprises to re-educate the masses. There will be classes in applied arts, music, dance, all kinds of games, psychology, everything.

Most importantly, they will all follow one principle: connection among people, a positive connection. That is all and nothing more is needed.

Comment: Scientists say that everyone’s inner willingness to change depends on whether we can offer people some kind of perspective.

My Response: This is the perspective. When we are connected among ourselves, in this connection, we will begin to feel new phenomena of our life, new stages of our life, a whole new life, a life that will lift us above time, above our physiological states. We will enter a completely different arena.

Comment: They also say that we need to show some perspective, but we do not know what it is.

My Response: Eternity, perfection, goodness, great achievements, attainments, and entry to a new space—all this must be given to people. They need to be shown this: what man was created for, what he should achieve, what he should begin to feel, why this is before him, and how he can achieve it—precisely through the correct connection between people.

In the connection of people, in “Love your neighbor as yourself,” when you begin to exist in good, correct contact with others, within this contact, you find the entrance to the next world.

Comment: So the world is simply collapsing from all sides.

My Response: Nothing is collapsing! On the contrary, we are entering the next degree. We are not destroying anything.

Question: Alexander Asmolov, Director of Humanitarian Policy at a major Russian university, says: “Our problem is that we teach people to adapt. Not to change with the world, but only to adapt to the current conditions. This hinders our readiness to face challenges that have not yet occurred.”

How can we help a person to change rather than adapt?

Answer: We have nothing to adapt to. Our world is becoming such that by constantly adapting to it, we are coming to a dead end. Then we fall with the world. But we need to separate, we need to start rising. It depends only on our good connection with each other. That is all.

Therefore, the correct result of our engagement with society, with this generation, should be that they will be able to unite among themselves and begin to feel the next level of the universe in this connection.

Comment: Scientists also say that our psyche is capable of working in constantly changing conditions, that each person has unique opportunities for reflection, critical understanding of the world, and changing stereotypes. They say the most important is that we have a tolerance for uncertainty. So It seems that people are internally ready for this new state. What will trigger it?

My Response: The way out is to reveal the science of Kabbalah to the world. Nothing else, because there is no other method that is even close to it. That is first. Second, people must reach a point where they are willing to listen.

Comment: What can we wish for a person who has his entire inner structure ready, has potential, and only needs to take a step forward?

Answer: He should clearly pursue the question: “What is the meaning of my life?”

The meaning of life is in understanding its purpose. And the goal is not within life itself. The meaning of life is above this body. This is what we need to attain.

Comment: Sometimes, a friend in the ten suggests some course of action. Everyone agrees, they carry it out, and the result is excellent. For example, someone proposes fixing the electrical system in the center, and they manage it perfectly.

Joint work is wonderful. However, there is a distinction between group tasks and interpersonal connections. Often, these areas overlap where group interaction becomes intertwined with work on dissemination.

My Response: There are countless small matters that cannot all be brought to a common denominator.

Each case needs to be addressed individually. What is essential is to always prioritize our inner aspiration to unite with one another to reveal the Creator within that unity.

Everything else are external actions on the level of our world. These may vary in effectiveness and significance, but they are secondary.

I would separate these aspects. There are situations where people cannot actively participate in dissemination. For example, some of my students live in Alaska, northern Canada, Patagonia, or New Zealand. Should they go outside to hand out our flyers? No one would even look at them, it is simply not done in those places. The primary focus is their internal connection, which fosters their spiritual advancement.

However, if there is even a minimal opportunity to engage in dissemination as part of the collective effort, one should immediately participate. Life, as part of the greater body, involves each “cell” connecting with the others and transmitting to them all it can.

Through this connection, the life-giving light, the light of life flows. Therefore, one should seek ways to connect with others and engage in dissemination, but only with the purpose of revealing the Creator’s light within us.

Question: Do you clearly see the forces pressing down on us and do you perceive this pressure?

Answer: I feel it on my skin. This is what drives me to disseminate. That is why I am shouting: “Let’s disseminate as quickly as possible!”

Do I have any personal benefit from this other than the nerves and forces that I have to expend? Or do I have some kind of obsession? I am well aware that I am burning the last days of my life in this work, but I feel that this is the most important thing. At least that is how I see it, and that is why I’m doing it.

People are already beginning to understand that there is a higher purpose here that simply obliges us to engage in dissemination. The situation is so dire and global that it simply forces us to act.

I feel it very strongly. Every day is a crucial factor for the next day. What could happen from minute to minute is being determined right now. That is why I am in such tension, and it gets passed on to others, even though they think I’m getting on their nerves. Actually, this is not the case.

You can read what the Kabbalists write, what Baal HaSulam writes, and how they shout to us from their pages. That is, a person who feels this sees all this horror, as if on an X-ray, and the rest see nothing but bones.

Question: But your function is to push?

Answer: Not only that! We teach, develop the methodology, translate, publish books and videos in all languages, and organize congresses. It is not just pushing.

We need to organize and create an educational system. Our organization is an educational organization, and it should become global. In fact, it already is. We just need to grow larger, deepen, expand, and become above all other organizations, meaning, above all possible differences between people and nations. In other words, it must be something that humanity will accept as a unified whole and will begin to unite around it.

Question: Will the system work effectively when we decide to take a targeted common action in relation to, say, the Internet or something else? If everyone does it correctly, how effective can it be?

Answer: Our global system of uniting various groups into one group and disseminating the Kabbalistic methodology for the correction of humanity, both individually and collectively, consists of two main directions. The first is our internal work where we unite among us. The second is bringing our strength of unity, information about Kabbalah, and the methodology of connection to the world.

Sometimes it seems that much of this work is useless both for the world and even for us. In reality, we are constantly engaged, working, studying materials, and adapting them for the end user, which helps us better understand and connect with them.

In the process, we are nurturing ourselves. A tremendous amount of time and resources have been invested so that someone who initially knows and understands nothing gradually develops into what we call today an educator—someone who can engage with the world, speak, explain, and demonstrate. Such a person knows the sources and is seen as a valuable asset, a gem, to the world. This refers to our students.

Thus, our work, no matter what we do, includes seemingly unnecessary actions, those of secondary importance, where we simply labor and invest ourselves. Yet this work becomes part of the overall system and does not disappear even if its results are not immediately apparent.

Nonetheless, in my eyes, this has immense value. As a result, I have already raised thousands of people worldwide who appreciate, understand, and know the wisdom of Kabbalah. But the most important aspect is not just these individuals themselves, but the fact that they have already contributed to the collective system.

This is an eternal, perfect system that does not perish with a person. What you contribute to it remains forever. It becomes part of it and is combined with the efforts of all generations and brings humanity closer to the final correction.

We know that if people in one part of the world think about something, similar thoughts arise in another part of the world.

Therefore, beyond the material, which is universally understood, I share much more that is incomprehensible to most; it passes unnoticed in the delivery of my material. Even so, this information is absorbed by the common system we exist in, by the collective universe in its concealed part. Over time, this makes it easier for people to understand, realize, and arrive at the ideas we are discussing.

We see this happening today as thousands of people suddenly join us, quickly grasp the materials, and agree with our concepts. They do not just nod their heads; during lectures they genuinely absorb the core principles, concepts that once took two or three years to understand. Now people begin to understand them within a month or two.

Where does this come from? It stems from the fact that we have injected an enormous amount of spiritual material, effort, data, and facts into the air, and these now exist in the surrounding space.

This information is present all around us. It is imprinted on the invisible waves of what is called reflected light (Ohr Hozer) that emanates from us.

Question: I have heard you say more than once that concealment is an invitation to revelation. How can we use this message in dissemination?

Answer: Concealment is a wonderful state because when a person feels that something is concealed from him, he begins to search and eventually turns to us. That is, concealment determines the stage of creation.

A dog on the street searches for something to find. But the human in us (not the animal) searches for its source. The highest form of searching is for my source: “Where am I from? Why am I here? What is my purpose?” Where do I come from and to what must should I return to?

Thus, our dissemination is in search of darkness and light, and this is what we must awaken in people. A person who approaches us does so with some kind of inquiry, and we must ignite the corresponding questions in them through our initial publications.

However, this should not be done directly but through an alternative approach that ultimately evokes questions about the purpose of or reason for creation, which they will then bring to us.

We need to present materials in such a way that they always spark the next question in a person. In other words, we should not attempt to paint the entire picture in one article. Doing so might leave them confused and unable to piece it all together into a coherent mosaic or correct vision. Instead, we should create something concise, a short article, note, or tweet that leaves them with a question.

We will answer that question, but the answer must also lead to the next question. This step-by-step progression, this way of working with students, is the most reasonable approach. But it is not easy; it is art.

Comment: Every day, you record a significant amount of video and audio material.

My Response: I cannot do otherwise; I have to produce it. The task of organizing this material will fall to my students in the future. Even now, however, the material is gradually being structured, and forms various messages and programs.

I always aim to provide the most I can for the present moment. It is not possible to rush ahead since people would not be able to understand me. I do not create for “someday” or for things to remain unused; I share my work with those who are capable of applying it today. Tomorrow others will come and join today’s students, and the process will continue.

Although time is limited, ideally we would revisit all our materials each year, and adapt them to the new wave, the new state, and the new degree we have reached. But even if we do not revisit everything, the outcome is the same. People establish a foundation and over time are able to reinterpret earlier knowledge in light of their new understanding.

Question: Does that mean that this knowledge will be useful regardless?

Answer: Undoubtedly. Additionally, we are moving back toward an eternal, perfect spiritual system where every effort we contribute becomes a permanent part of it. In other words, what I produce today, even if no one in the world hears it, still enters this system, remains there, and is assimilated by humanity in this world.

It becomes a part of humanity’s collective knowledge, which makes it easier for future generations to connect with it.
