In these turbulent times of escalating social division, The World Kabbalah Convention is taking place in Israel. February 20-22, at the Tel Aviv Convention Center. This annual event is unparalleled in how it brings together thousands of people from most countries of the world, to experience a unity that is beyond borders, beyond nations. A unity that is rooted in learning how to sense the innate wiring for connection we have, guided by the authentic Wisdom of Kabbalah.

The Book of Zohar explains why the Polish Holocaust law is just another expression of an inherent demand that the world has towards Israel.

The Zohar writes that “Israel is the heart of the whole world, just as the organs of the body could not exist in the world even for a moment without the heart, so all the nations cannot exist in the world without Israel.” In other words, just as the role of the heart in the human body is to be the driving force for blood to circulate throughout the body, the role of Israel is to drive the force of unity and human connection that brings livelihood and abundance to all nations of the world.

Thus, anti-Semitism should be interpreted differently. It is like an alert mechanism that turns on when human society is nearing a state of crisis. And while not all anti-Semites can articulate it, they somehow sense that the world’s problems have everything to do with the Jewish people.

As a Kabbalist, I was asked about the connection between the growing trend of legalizing marijuana and the search for the meaning of life.

The wisdom of Kabbalah is a method for developing our desire to discover the meaning of life.

Anti-Semitism is on the rise again. This will continue until the Jews will assume their only responsibility, which is to demonstrate to the world how to achieve positive human relations.

An excerpt from an article based on an interview I gave to Adam Eliyahu Berkowitz of Breaking Israel News:

“It is clear in Kabbalah that in the times preceding the Geula (global correction of the world), Man is going to utilize the entire potential of technology and begin to create artificial intelligence. People will want to achieve something similar to the creation of Man.”

“In the time of the Geula, people will understand that all of this development, all throughout history, is what brought us to an even greater collapse,” he stressed. “This will become very clear in war when we see that all of the technology we developed for man’s good can immediately turn around and be used against man.”

Laitman believes that the same motives of Man which led to the construction of the Tower of Babel are also in play with the development of artificial intelligence.

While most the world is going bankrupt, the rich and powerful convene in the picturesque city of Davos to discuss their ongoing success in exploiting the rest of society, as if there is nothing wrong with the 1% getting 82% of all the wealth that was created in the world last year.

Sure, they talk about a “synchronization” of economies, and marching together towards a “shared future.” But what lies behind these words is the same exploitative thinking: How can we, the tycoons, take advantage of the situation to get even richer than we are now.

But as much as the rich and powerful would like to stay isolated, they’re being pushed to discover how interdependent we all are. The world has become a globally hyper-connected village, even though we continue to think linearly and egoistically.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining to anyone. In my view, this is the inevitable result of our natural egoistic development as human beings. Soon, however, we will have to acknowledge that the name of the game is interdependence, and the only way to prevent a crisis and make the world work for everyone is to change ourselves.

Economics is merely a reflection of human relations, and we will have to undergo a change of consciousness in how we relate to each other. Human society will have to embark on a massive socio-educational journey to upgrade our way of thinking and our sensibility towards our collective happiness. When we’re ready to start, the authentic wisdom of Kabbalah can show us how to get on this track.

Vice President Mike Pence not only recognized history but also the past and future of the Jewish people, as a nation that must reveal the Creator to the world. This is a giant step towards the discovery of the thought of creation—to unite all the nations of the world, “for they shall all know Me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them” (Jeremiah 31, 33)

The dystopian vision of an AI-powered automated weapon storm wiping out humanity can help sharpen our scrutiny of what the world really needs today—unity—by showing us what can happen if we don’t match our technological progress with our progress in social unification. The Jewish people play a major role in this challenge.

The fact that most pundits, politicians, and opinion leaders are constantly speaking against Trump shows something about the Trump phenomenon that the public, the government and the media fail to acknowledge, or can’t come to terms with.

In my view, that something has to do with a fundamental change I anticipate taking place very soon in how we run everything on the planet. The future is not going to be more of what we already know. And Trump, whether he is aware of it or not, is the precursor of that change.

We essentially allowed Logan’s generation to pick up their examples, role models and values from a media culture that’s extremely saturated with violence, and now we are letting them be the role models for today’s kids.
