A Revolutionary of His Time

962.3Comment: If we compare you and Baal HaSulam, he was not as public as you are and he did not disseminate to such a large number of people.

My Response: I am sure that if he could, he would have done everything. In 1940, Baal HaSulam published the newspaper The Nation. Can you imagine what it meant to publish a Kabbalistic, Zionist newspaper at that time?!

And the book The Giving of the Torah in which he addresses ordinary people! A Kabbalist comes out of his corner and addresses ordinary people! He was a true revolutionary!

Who am I compared to him? Now everything is open, do what you want. It is a completely different century!

Participate In the Creator’s Program

935Everyone has to build a connection from a person to a ten, and from a ten to a wider circle, and even farther and farther, until we see the whole world united together in one group. This goal should be kept in front of oneself as a desirable state of the world. If we strive for it, we will undoubtedly move according to the Creator’s desire.

Although the world is in the exact opposite state, in hatred, wars, and separation, we need to disseminate this message and do everything possible to bring everyone to unity, starting from ten, from our point, until all of humanity is united as one person with one heart.

It may seem like an unrealistic dream, but we are not required to realize it, we just need to ask and join the program that the Creator implements. Every person and every ten must participate in it to the fullest.

The main thing is to achieve unity, promote it, and stay in it until it becomes the aspiration of the whole world. And the world will definitely turn in this direction; everything depends on us. We are at the central point of all of humanity, and we only have to want. If everyone puts pressure on their heart, then we will certainly succeed.

We want to come to bestowal, Lishma, and complete unification with the Creator. But we also want to see the whole world united, so that people understand that there is no other way beside only one global union for everyone. The Creator will help us reach such a state, and we will all, with the whole world, ascend in the attainment of the Creator upon spiritual degrees and thus fulfill our destiny.

As a result, everyone should know the Creator, “from the smallest to the greatest,” as it is said: “My house shall be called a house of prayer for all peoples.” The house of the Creator is the desire to bestow that governs over everyone and connects everyone together through mutual ties. We need to disseminate this knowledge so that everyone understands; whether we want it or not, this is the program from above. And we live in the era of the last generation when it must be realized.

People should know that regardless of their desire, this happens according to the program of creation. And if now we feel states that are the opposite of this goal, then this is the path leading from Lo Lishma to Lishma that lifts us from the animate degree to the human degree, to the degree of the Creator.

And in fact, this is not such a distant goal. All this happens inside humanity, inside a person, and it does not take too many years and superhuman efforts. If we listen even a little and attune ourselves to this goal, then this change will happen in us.

You can win at the expense of quantity, but you can win on account of quality. Let’s try to win with quality if there are not so many of us quantitatively. But we need to make sure that there are many more people around us who will understand and agree that this is how it should be. And although they will not rise due to their own work, they will at least accept this idea. After all, every day it becomes more and more obvious that there is no other way out, and only if such a correction is made in us from above, we will be happy.

A Fertile Field for Bestowal and Love

214Question: In principle, it is not personal growth that is important to you but precisely common growth, right?

Answer: Why do I need personal growth?

Must a person who wants to do good, and Kabbalah is in principle a tool for this, necessarily climb to the very top and throw cakes from there?!

If I can lead people to the idea of unity at my level especially in conditions of crisis, suffering, the threat of famine and world war, where can be a field more fertile for bestowal and love? Only here! Only at this level! I do not have to go up to do that.

What Kind of Students Does a Kabbalist Need?

234Comment: There are students who leave us but somehow remain connected to us.

My Response: Those people are trying to adapt their studies of Kabbalah to our world. They cannot tear themselves away from us because they want to use the egoistic world for their corporeal ascent.

For example, someone insists that I explain Kabbalah to academics and politicians because he wants to look wise in the eyes of the whole world, he wants to be proud of his association with Kabbalah.

And I do not need it at all because there is nothing great in the greatest of this world. Therefore, he begins to complain about why I don’t explain Kabbalah to important people and don’t go and bow to them.

Why do I need it? I need students who will implement Kabbalah within them, within themselves, and by doing so correct the world! And I am not going to engage in such “marketing.”

In general, I am not interested in people who cannot pass spiritual laws through themselves. According to the definition of Kabbalah, they are considered animals, that is, they are content with the animate level.

I do not neglect them, but simply sort them according to the line of desires. Desires for this world prevail in them, and I need people with desires for the upper world. Suppose you were given a desire for the higher world, and you began to apply them in the direction of our world. Then stay with them! Nothing can be done.

Thanks to the Group

95Question: Is the group like a laboratory for you? Have you sort of created an environment for yourself that allows you to develop directly?

Answer: Yes, of course. They are with me, and I am with them. Absolutely!

If it were not for the group, I would have developed in a different direction. The group pulls me down by my legs, it grounds me. Look at what kind of TV recordings we have about family, about love, about unemployment, and so on. We have everything there! All this can be found in the archive.

I myself would have never produced this. But the host starts pulling information out of me like a magician pulling out colored handkerchiefs tied together, and I talk. I could not have done it without the group.

What we have done in recent years: the method of correction for beginners, the method of raising children, courses for beginners, none of this existed in Kabbalah. All of this is brand new! And all is suitable for our time! Without the group, I would never have developed this.

After all, I just talk, and then students make it all and sew it into a program. I could not physically handle it and would not even go this way at all! I would rather aim upward. I would not have the language to explain everything! I would be spinning around the world of Atzilut in my research, but not in this.

The students are constantly bringing me down to earth. And rightly so, because the world demands it.

Spiritually Powerful Structure

942Question: When a certain opinion that something is important is formed around people, it can affect some but not others. How can you influence the masses to make it work?

Answer: Only through the internal network of connections between all of us.

We are all tied into one network. But a person who is not engaged in spiritual work has very little effect on it. However, my influence on this network is really strong because I am a part of it.

With the help of intentions and corresponding qualities that I have specially created in me, I influence the entire system. It turns out that we get locked in this way. My impact on the general system of humanity is billions of times greater than that of an ordinary person.

This is the only way! As for the media and everything else we do in our world, humanity has very little effect on the general system.

Our main influence should be directed at correcting the world. If we create its correct microstructure from ourselves and this microstructure is spiritually powerful in the general structure of the world, then it will influence everything else most of all.

Although this will be done by a small group (maybe only a hundred people), but in terms of its power and quality, it will surpass the rest of the world billions of times over. That is the way this is arranged!

It is just as in the human brain where everything is controlled by a tiny microprocessor the size of a match head, and everything else are auxiliary systems around it.

Without Miracles

630.2Consistent study of Kabbalah develops qualities within a person that can be used to research spiritual space, to be born in this space and to live in it. 

These qualities develop gradually. This is the purpose of Kabbalah—to transform our egoism into altruism and to the degree of this transformation to begin seeing the upper world in this attitude to the world. And you see it and sense it; it is here.

Just like in science fiction movies about space: people look out the window, they see dark space, and suddenly some alien spaceship appears before them. They did not see it before. Why do they suddenly see it now? Apparently, they turned on a different property, a different locator, a different frequency, or different sensor.

It is the same here. This is pure physics and math, there are no miracles here.

We are gradually preparing a possibility for the revelation of the governing system, i.e., the upper world, the upper nature, or the Creator for all of humanity. This is our mission. Humanity does not know about it and it does not need to; it will know later.

Moreover, it will not know about us at all since this does not exist in the system, this is all nameless. But still, it is a tremendous pleasure to feel that you are paving the way. You understand in advance what joy and good will come out of this.

The Difficult Maturing of Humanity

272Humanity is finally beginning to realize that it is coming to an end. People are not talking about it in full voice yet, but they are already saying that they do not know what to do. This is already a good result.

Our egoism in no way wants to act the way it should. It wants everything to be the way it wants it to be. Like a small child who closes his eyes and says: “There is no such thing!” It seems to him that if he closes his eyes and sees nothing, it means that it does not exist or nobody sees him.

It turns out that humanity acts in the same way: “There is no such thing!”. When I talked to the Nobel Prize laureates in economics many years ago and told them there was a crisis, they looked at me almost with mockery: “Well, what is wrong with you? What are you talking about?!” Of course, I kept silent. With whom should I argue?

I understand that these are just people. But today they do not say that anymore, it gave them a big whack on the nose.

Nevertheless, even if they already hear, they do not want to accept it internally yet. There are several thresholds that information must pass before a person accepts it, suppresses himself, and begins to take it in.

Rigid Connection to the World

254.03In our spiritual work, we use the materials that Baal HaSulam wrote and build ourselves on what he did.

I know from my own experience that I am allowed to go forward only to the extent that I have to explain Kabbalah to the world, but I cannot go any further. I feel like a dog that runs on a leash beside the owner, the owner constantly holds the leash and doesn’t let the dog get ahead too much.

I would rush forward with desire and strength that I cannot even describe, but I feel that I am tied to the world. Bound! As far as the world can advance, I am permitted to go ahead of it by a few degrees and that is it. These are high, spiritual degrees, but no more! I feel a rigid attachment to the world, I cannot be free. This shows, of course, my place, my duty, and my work.

There is a huge difference in how much the world has begun to move forward in jerks now, and how much it gives me the opportunity to speak. I have to keep a lot inside myself because I cannot express myself, it is like I am mute. Then the world takes a step forward and words, images, and symbols appear. I can express it right away! Some kind of external expression appears that was not there before. This is how it follows the path that the world goes through.

He is far away, somewhere out there, sorting out his problems: the same terrorists, on the one hand, economic crises and natural disasters, on the other hand. But all this gives some kind of impetus, and I have the opportunity to express a lot of connections, laws, and root causes, to link them, and to give out a new layer that can be explained. And so, in layers, I feel that I am moving forward. But these layers depend only on how the world is going.

Reshape a Stubborn People

293Question: You said that we can correct the external manifestations of various events within ourselves. In particular, you cited what happened in the Gaza as an example. What does it mean to internally correct the external manifestations of the Gaza Strip?

Answer: Why else are external manifestations given to us? They are only given to us so that we can improve internally.

The whole world must reach correction. If we do not correct it in a normal way, that is, by revealing the Creator, then we are given all sorts of external problems that still force us to go toward this. But then we come to the Creator because of them.

Look at how many problems and suffering accumulate and how much time passes until we begin to realize that all this is only to solve our internal problems. This takes time! But by working internally, we can immediately get down to business.

Question: But if there were no external Gaza Strip, how could it manifest inside a person?

Answer: Under the influence of our dissemination, under the influence of some other milder problems. But if not, then by means of war, serious losses, and serious beatings, because then one starts asking, “How can I correct this, what should I do?”

Jews are very stubborn people. It is almost useless to say anything to them. To do this, we need to properly tune in because their heart, hearing, head, and brains are closed. Everything is closed! On the other hand, they are smart, wise, and receptive people, but very far from changing themselves. Very far! This means they are stubborn!

This stubbornness will require many more sacrifices until they finally agree that something needs to be done.

Question: What will their agreement be? In participation or just awareness?

Answer: In serious participation! In correcting themselves for the sake of correcting the world, for the sake of the Creator.
