For The Sake Of A Collective Decision

530Question: You say that decisions should be made collectively, preferably in a group of ten people. The main thing is not to argue, but to annul yourself. But if everyone annuls themselves, how is a decision made? What is the technique for collective decision making?

Answer: This is the whole technique: to annul yourself all the time for the sake of a collective decision.

Question: If everyone annuls himself, who is going to make a decision then?

Answer: But you will speak out. Then from all the denials of each one’s self, a common solution will appear. It will appear from the fact that you all annul your egoism, and then the decision that is above you will appear.

Remark: But this is already the higher level. There should be really clear communication between people.

My Comment: We need to implement this.

Question: Is it possible to use voting in this case?

Answer: No! This is all savagery and selfishness. We see what happens in the world as a result when a group of time-wasters, people, who do not understand anything, not being guided by the upper reason, not connecting to it, give out their opinion.

Question: And if one solution does not appear in the group?

Answer: There is nothing to do then. We wait. We don’t make any decisions. There is a leader, there is a manager, and we follow them implicitly.

Man’s Relationship With Nature And Himself

720Question: In classifying interpersonal relationships, the main thing is considered to be the contact between man and nature. What is the basic principle of the connection between man and the upper nature?

Answer: The principle is very simple: a person must bring himself to convergence with the upper nature. The upper or inner nature is based on the quality of bestowal, love, and mutual assistance. In this, it is the opposite of a person who is in egoistic love for himself. If we attune ourselves properly to feeling nature, then we will discover it.

Question: How should a person relate to himself, to his “I”?

Answer: As to a certain detector, a receptive device, that is located in certain conditions and must use itself and these conditions to reveal the essence of everything that is happening, the real nature of our world.

Question: Most of the time a person talks to himself, conducts an internal dialogue. Although this happens unconsciously, is there any way to control what this dialogue should be about?

Answer: In Kabbalah, there is a whole technique about the inner dialogue of a person with himself, with friends, with a group, with the world, and with the Creator. In this regard, we must always be in the continuous flow of information.

Boss And Leader

177.06Question: Governance is the observance of the laws of communication. You are constantly in contact with people, gather a team, manage them. How do you see the difference between a boss and a leader in relation to subordinates?

Answer: A leader has nothing to do with his subordinates. He gives out his vision of the world, his plans, prospects. He is not very interested in the attitude of people to his idea, because how to perceive it is already the concern of subordinate managers.

Question: As a rule, the boss is appointed from the top and the leader grows from the bottom. Do you agree with this?

Answer: The boss is appointed from above because they see which of the subordinates is capable of solving practical problems. And the leader is set by the higher governance or as we used to think by chance. This is a person with a philosophical, forward-looking view of the world, who perceives the whole world as something of his own.

How To Make Decisions In The Family?

506.6Question: How can decisions be made in the family correctly? Is there some kind of hierarchy here?

Answer: All decisions in the family are made by the wife. At least that is how it should be. Abraham was told: “In all that Sarah tells you, listen to her.”

Question: Isn’t this said allegorically?

Answer: Both allegorically and not. I believe that a woman is more sensible than a man and can take part in decisions. Men should look at women’s attitude toward problem solving and learn from them how to lower themselves instead of pushing their opinions.

A Factor That Helps In Making A Decision

627.2Question: The world is entering a period of uncertainty now when it is difficult to predict the consequences and take into account all the factors that may affect decision-making. What should we focus on?

Answer: That the world should achieve full integration on all levels and turn itself from a torn, multi-sided, contradictory world into a global world, in the form of a large sphere in which everything is balanced.

Question: Are there any factors hidden from our five sense organs that could help in making decisions?

Answer: Only love. That is, complete unification between all factors for the sake of balance between all creations.

Question: Does that mean that the closer a person is to the quality of nature, the quality of bestowal and love, the more chances the right decision will be made?

Answer: Undoubtedly.

Choose The Path

760.4Question: Is it necessary to teach a person to make decisions or is it a natural skill, a consequence of a person’s upbringing, education? I ask because there are so many courses on how to make right decisions.

Answer: Yes, but they are all limited by the framework of corporeal life. Therefore, I cannot speak with them at the same level. They are trained to make decisions within the corporeal framework.

Remark: But we also live within the corporeal framework.

Answer: The fact is that now this is no longer the case. Today we live in a generation that must choose a path that coincides with the general task of the universe even in solving the most elementary production problems. Otherwise, nothing will come of this enterprise.

Let people come to our course and gradually begin to understand how the whole system called one soul, Adam, works, and how we can behave correctly in this system.

Not To Manage But To Achieve

592.03Question: They say that three things are required in order to manage: time, talent, and desire. And in your opinion, someone who doesn’t like to manage can be a manager. Why?

Answer: Because in this case, he will not confuse people and intentionally manipulate them. Management is good when you clearly know the goal, constantly develop more specific concise ways to achieve it, and know which people to engage in order to realize this goal.

Question: Are you saying that a good manager is someone who doesn’t like to manage but just does it out of necessity?

Answer: Yes. Otherwise he will get bogged down in this work and will find pleasure in digging in it.

Question: Does it mean that for him some goal must be higher than the desire of a person to control and rule?

Answer: Of course. If I can jump to the end of this process, that is the most important thing for me. I do not like to manage, I like to achieve.

There Is No Problem That Cannot Be Solved

562.02Question: Do you think that all problem can be solved?

Answer: Absolutely any! It all depends on what level and how to solve it.

All of nature is determined by and obeys clear laws of light and vessel (desire). Decisions come from top to bottom and there are no surprises.

And although this is hidden from us, in general, there is nothing unknown in nature. However, we cannot calculate, as we study probability theory at the university, how high the probability of a particular decision is. Einstein also said: “God does not play dice.”

Question: That is, many solutions exist only in relation to a person? Is there really one clear solution?

Answer: Of course! Because the beginning and the end of nature are absolutely connected. But with respect to man, this unified nature exists in such an incomprehensible form that he collected it within himself and put all the cubes into one sleek pyramid.

“What Is The Most Important Factor In Raising Children To Be Honorable Decent Human Beings?” (Quora)

Dr. Michael LaitmanMichael Laitman, On Quora: “What is the most important factor in raising children to be honorable decent human beings?“

The most important factor in raising children is to prioritize their positive connection with each other, which comes from their absorbing positive examples from adults.

Since children learn from their elders, then if we succeed in improving our relations, and by doing so, embody a living example of well-oiled connections that bring about harmonious outcomes—happiness, confidence, security, love and care—then the children will follow suit, and naturally build positive relations to each other and to nature.

Positive social connections are key to realizing our full potential as human beings. If we truly care about our children growing up to be healthy, happy, confident and safe adults, then we need to be concerned that we ourselves upgrade our relationships, since that is most important factor to both our own and our children’s better lives.
