Question: How will society be transformed when Kabbalah is used correctly? How will it be expressed internally and externally?

Answer: First of all, all mass media should change their direction in a single decision of the majority of countries. Everything should be aimed at explaining to the masses that only our unity will save the world and restore nature’s positive influence on us.

The mass media is a system that can be rapidly changed for the benefit of the global community, and thus reverse the direction of our development.

We will immediately see positive effects across everything: health, end of terror, weather conditions, society, and more. You will suddenly see that everything calms down, balances out, and becomes peaceful: children’s relationships with their parents, problems with the younger generation, everything instantly calms in each of these manifestations. Enormous egoism, great evil, and resistance to each other suddenly disappear. It is not that angels will walk on earth, no; people are beginning to understand this system, become imbued with it, and feel they can rise above death.

This is what we need to show humanity: “You have the opportunity to rise above death, to achieve a sense of eternity and perfection! This is what is offered to you in addition to life on this earth, which will become truly heavenly, unlike going outside and not knowing if you will return or whether you will have anything to breathe tomorrow.”

If we prove incapable of awakening the world to spiritual advancement so that a light shines for it ahead, then suffering will begin to push it from behind, forcing it to advance. And this is a very long path until suffering compels a person to think about what to do and why he is suffering. Imagine how much time and suffering this requires! If, however, we contribute even a little to development by disseminating the wisdom of Kabbalah, we quickly awaken development and avoid all these blows.

It is known that everything that occurs on the still (inanimate) level is equivalent to a single action on the vegetative level. Everything that occurs on the vegetative level is equivalent to a single action on the animate level. Just imagine this difference between the degrees!

Wars, suffering, and terrible catastrophes must occur in order to move us even one step higher to the next degree. And instead of this, we can draw the upper light and avoid all these problems on the level of this world!

Ten years full of suffering can be replaced by one tiny personal movement toward spiritual development with the help of the light! Such is the difference between the degrees of the still, vegetative, animate, and human levels. Therefore, we must relate with full responsibility to the opportunities given to us.

Question: What is the difference between suffering along the natural path of development and suffering when time is accelerated? If the only difference is time, does that mean I would have to suffer a hundred times more?

Answer: There are terrible tragedies that shock the entire world. The whole world feels some blows because everyone tries this situation on themselves, knowing that it could happen anywhere.

It is possible to transfer these sufferings to the spiritual level and avoid the tragedies. To what extent did these sufferings advance humanity toward goodness, toward understanding the need to work on unity? Not more than a millimeter.

Instead, it would have been enough to make the very smallest spiritual effort—to agree at least a little that salvation lies in unity, in bringing everyone closer together in our global world, to engage the heart and the mind just a bit—and we would have neutralized these sufferings.

Both paths move us toward the goal. But what an enormous amount of suffering is required to advance by the natural path. Fourteen billion years were needed for the development of inanimate nature on Earth. A couple of billion years for the plant world to develop, another billion years for animals, and another hundred thousand years for a monkey to become a human being.

Look at the proportion between inanimate, vegetative, animate, and human development. At the high, human level, development proceeds very quickly.

The same principle applies to all modern technology: it becomes faster, more sensitive, and far more powerful. The greater the force of nature, the more concealed it is and the faster it acts. This is precisely the difference between the natural path and the acceleration of time.

Many sufferings could have been avoided, and time could have been accelerated.

Question: Does this mean that tragedies and terrorist attacks will happen more and more often?

Answer: Terrorist attacks can be avoided if we use the method of unity that Kabbalah offers. As long as we do not do this, attacks will occur more frequently because the world is constantly advancing, and our egoism is steadily growing.

The world does not remain in the same state; by learning through blows, it is moving forward. It has its own dynamic of development. Egoism keeps intensifying. That is why, twenty years ago, one major blow per year was enough to teach us something, whereas today we already need twenty blows a year.

Our egoism has grown. It is like a child who has become more egoistic, ruthless, and stubborn, and therefore must be punished more than one who is merely a little lazy. That is why today the world receives far more blows than it did ten years ago. And if we do not begin to advance by the path of light, this will continue: blow after blow, more and more.

I only hope that it will not come to natural disasters. For now, it is limited to global warming and typhoons, but if we do not engage in our correction, it could reach real natural cataclysms.

Question: You said that inspiration and transmission of information should be brief, clear, and to the point, not rambling statements that go on for five to ten minutes where one person speaks and everyone else is silent as if forcing themselves: “Yes, we must listen.” What should a truly inspiring speech be like?

Answer: That is a big problem, because our guys start quoting excerpts, using official jargon, and bringing in all sorts of explanations. Here, you just need to express your inner expression as simply as possible, from heart to heart, to convey the maximum feeling with the minimum number of words, and that is all.

Therefore, I am in favor of everything being very brief, without unnecessary intellectualization. A person should prepare in advance so that it would burst out from their heart, as they say, “without thinking.” But this is not easy; it comes gradually.

In addition, the listeners themselves are not yet attuned to understanding. We don’t yet communicate with each other internally, through feelings. Just as a mother feels her baby without words, and the baby feels the mother through subconscious sensations, so too should we feel one another. Much more so!

Then our external communication, words, gestures, facial expressions will become superfluous. Over time, all this will cease, and you will be able to transmit your sensations to others and receive them completely outside of physical contact, even if the person is no longer in our world but on some other levels.

That is, you no longer associate him with his body. Whether he is somewhere, a couple of thousand kilometers away from you in his body, or outside the body, in another dimension, what is the difference?

You will not break natural egoism with artificial means such as public opinion or education. There is no cure for this but a natural religion (Baal HaSulam, The Writings of the Last Generation).

Baal HaSulam believes that neither education nor public opinion will help humanity, only religion will, that is, enlightenment, which is absolute and unlimited. By religion, Baal HaSulam means the science of Kabbalah, which reveals the upper force, a system through which this force, from its highest point in the world of infinity, governs all the worlds, the system of governance, and us in our lowest world.

Without understanding how this system works and adapting to it from our side, from the bottom up, we will not be able to attain the meaning of life. At the same time, we do not attach any philosophical connotation to the concept of “the meaning of life,” because without an understanding of life’s true essence, we cannot function normally.

We are moving to a state in which any of our actions that align with the direction of development toward the goal of creation are beneficial to us and yield positive results. If the action is not directed precisely toward the goal, if it does not move us closer to it, it yields a negative outcome, and we suffer. Moreover, we may not know which actions produce which outcomes, as we are not familiar with this system.

In order for us to know exactly what to do at this point in our development, to stop standing still or going backward, falling, getting bumps, and moving from crisis to crisis, we must understand what the science of Kabbalah says.

It explains which system a person lives in and which worlds surround him, how the upper force, the Creator, governs us through these worlds in the lower world, how we should respond to the Creator’s governance, and what we should come to, which is complete similarity, alignment, and adhesion with the Creator.

Nowadays, the science of Kabbalah is becoming very relevant because we see that today, none of the global rulers, neither philosophers nor scientists, have a good idea of where we are, how we conduct ourselves, or how to manage ourselves to ensure a more or less tolerable “tomorrow,” rather than head toward destruction.

Today many are increasingly aware of this, but people still do not understand that there is a system of knowledge known as “Kabbalah.”

In general, we call religion the study of the upper force, not just faith in the upper force, but the study of it. That is, the science of Kabbalah is the science of the upper force. If the upper force governs us through a system, then we can study that system. It may be impossible to study the upper force itself, but at least its effect on us can be understood, investigated, and applied.

Kabbalists, those who have mastered this system in the past, write to us from the depths of time that the desire of the upper force is for us to reveal it, understand its goodness, eternity, perfection, and strive to be like it.

We must show humanity that there is a cure for death, an elixir of immortality. But not in a way that allows a person to try it, he tries and that’s it; I won’t give him any more.

When a person begins to study Kabbalah, over the course of several months, he or she is shown a little that other states exist, and he constantly goes through them.

He sees that something is changing in him: his psyche, his psychology, his attitude toward the world, toward life, and toward himself; his consciousness expands; he begins to think on two levels—on the spiritual and the earthly level.

To a complete stranger it is enough to tell a little about the method, to give logical examples. Baal HaSulam writes in the book The Last Generation that there is no other way out.

We see in the examples of our world how we are nevertheless being helped to show that something needs to be done with it and with ourselves. If our world were in good condition, it would be much more difficult for us to tear a person away from the material feeding trough. But as it is, he sees that the feeder is already empty, and soon everything will be over.

Question: How should dissemination be expressed? Are there certain boundaries that we cannot cross?

Answer: The boundaries should be what is acceptable, decent, but without any fear, equivocation, or hints. Simply, in a direct way. Friends, look at what we have today: on one hand, the path of suffering, on the other hand, the path of correction. And you will immediately begin to feel yourselves and the world differently.

Yes, it is not easy. But it is simple if we are together. What does this mean? It means a change in social relations. It means new social relations that are built on brotherhood, camaraderie, mutual help, on the fact that we are elements of one single system. Let’s begin to build ourselves exactly as this system exists within us. This network exists between us.

Let’s first accept not to harm one another as a goal. Everywhere—at home, at work, on the road, wherever you are—let’s consider ourselves members of one family.

Comment: This instinct is characteristic of ants protecting their anthill.

My Response: What difference does it make? With the help of this, you attain the level of the Creator! And in fact, today you are an ant.

By fulfilling the laws of Kabbalah, we do not demean ourselves, but we elevate ourselves because in the correct connection between us, we reveal the upper force of nature.

Question: Can you give an example of how to rise above an egoistic state?

Answer: The most common state a person goes through is when something “unpleasant” is orchestrated from above, some kind of negative incident, and then they are manipulated, supposedly revealing it to the whole world. Because of this, a person finds him or herself in a constrained, intensely anxious, stressful state, terribly afraid for their good name.

They are pressured from above to show how much they love themselves and how unwilling they are to sacrifice their ego for any thoughts about spirituality, how they are even ready to run away from spiritual work just so they would not be exposed or revealed in any way, so that their insignificance would not be shown. These are the usual exercises carried out from above on our egoism.

But it is easy to talk about this, and when you are actually in such states, living through it is almost impossible. A person constantly wavers on this borderline, back and forth: either spirituality is important to me, or my ego, my shame. They keep examining and re-examining this. This condition is given so that they constantly try to understand that they must follow the path of bestowal and rise above their shame. This cannot be ignored.

I believe that one day films and books will be created on this topic and the time will come when it will be published, not only in a purely instructive format as it is today, but also in more popular styles accessible to many.

We know that today our sources are understood by only a small percentage of the population. Therefore, (just as Baal HaSulam dreamed) we will have to write new books, create new films, and new media tools that will emotionally bring a person into these states, because reason alone cannot achieve much. These tools should prepare a person through feelings, inner definitions, and inner analyses for the perception of spiritual influences.

Question: Can a Kabbalist predict what will happen in ten years?

Answer: A Kabbalist will never engage in prophecy. He can explain the trends of the development of society and humanity in order to demonstrate the course of the egoistic nature without the intervention of our correction.

And with the intervention of correction, no one will be able to clearly predict this, since everything depends only on the freedom of will of the people who study Kabbalah.

Therefore, Baal HaSulam, who printed his books, reproduced and distributed them with the purpose of disseminating Kabbalah, came to the conclusion that the generation was not yet ready for this.

He even wrote about the possibility of a third and fourth world war. But still, a Kabbalist does not know exactly when anything will happen because he does not have the right to use the freedom of will as a given reality. He leaves it for a person to realize.

Thus, a Kabbalist can predict the tendency of the natural development of humanity. However, considering a person’s freedom of will, he does not know how quickly humanity will enter this process. Therefore, he will not engage in speculation.

Question: Maybe Kabbalists can predict something good?

Answer: Kabbalists will predict something good only to the extent that you want it to be good.

Comment: By the way, I have never read good predictions. That is strange.

My Response: Because everything depends on the person! If you are corrected, you will see the future as good. If you are not corrected, you will see it as bad. And there is no future by itself. How well your senses are corrected or not, that is how you will feel it. You are the one who creates your own future! So, keep trying!

Question: You say that everything spiritual is feelings. What are feelings?

Answer: Feelings are what happens in the desire, and desire is our matter. That is, we are talking about matter and the form of matter. This is what we study in Kabbalah and what we can sense, analyze, and reproduce. Therefore, absolutely everything is in our feelings.

Comment: But feelings don’t have a specific location.

My Response: Desire is the very place in which you sense what you feel. My desire is the only reality. And all the objects surrounding me only seem to exist. In fact, they are drawn for me in my desire. Besides desire, there is nothing. Matter is desire.

Comment: In reality, this is something inexplicable.

My Response: It simply cannot be grasped.

Comment: Neither feelings nor desire can be conveyed in any way. Only if, as you say, there is a common form. If someone has experienced it, they can convey the feeling.

My Response: That is why I try, in some way, to push students to start writing emotional works about everyday situations that would lead a person to a certain awakening, similar to a spiritual one, and would accelerate their development.

Question: Is it possible to convey Kabbalah in this way? Can you take all the explanations from the heights and transmit them in a sensory form?

Answer: Yes, try to present all this in the form of various novels. One can, of course, write purely psychologically about a person’s inner states, even when he doesn’t intersect with others. Or one can base it on his relationships with a group, with friends, with animals, with women; it doesn’t matter.

That is, the foundation is always the same, only more complicated. Just like in our world: There are more intelligent people, there are less educated ones, but the foundation is always the same—emotional.
