In the News (Reuters): “The two officials…appeared before a House of Representatives intelligence subcommittee for the first public U.S. congressional hearing on the subject in a half century. It came 11 months after a government report documented more than 140 cases of unidentified aerial phenomena, or UAPs, that U.S. military pilots had observed since 2004. …

“Bray, deputy director of naval intelligence, said the number of UAPs officially cataloged by a newly formed Pentagon task force has grown to 400 cases. Both officials chose their words carefully in describing the task force’s work, including the question of possible extraterrestrial origins, which Bray said defense and intelligence analysts had not ruled out.

“Bray did say that ‘we have no material, we have detected no emanations, within the UAP task force that would suggest it is anything non-terrestrial in origin.'”

Question: What do you think about the seriousness of this issue?

Answer: They say what they decide they can say. There are still a lot of things that are not said, are not finished, and are classified. It is a fact that such kinds of things do exist relative to us. But the thing is, we still do not know anything about it.

Question: Who is flying?

Answer: It is not known who and how. They just fly.

Question: Can you assume that these are some aliens flying?

Answer: What is the point if I guess? I do not have any knowledge about them.

Comment: So, at least they do exist.

My Response: There is everything in nature, above us and below us, everything in general. So what?

Comment: Entire huge departments are engaged in these developments, tracking unidentified objects and so on.

My Response: They have money, let them work.

Question: Some say that aliens want to tell us something.

Answer: I do not think there is any desire to tell us anything because we have never been told anything. Otherwise, this would have been reported to us long ago. They observe us a little. I think they are much more developed than us, and they have really nothing to do with us.

Question: Is it because we are not developed at all?

Answer: Of course.

Question: So, are we like guinea pigs for them?

Answer: They guard us in some way.

Question: Do they study us?

Answer: I do not think we are worth studying.

Question: Then tell me please what should be said to humanity? Humanity is always waiting for something to be said to it.

Answer: There is nothing to say! What can you say to humanity? You come to a forest, to inanimate, vegetative, and animate nature and see all these types of nature there. What do you want to tell them?

We are at the animal level. Moreover, we are at the negative animate level. What can they possibly tell us?

Question: There is nothing to convey to this humanity, nothing to say to us?

Answer: They have nothing to tell us because we are not at the level where we can correctly perceive what they convey to us.

Question: In other words, if we were at a level that is closer to correct perception, would they have transmitted their message to us?

Answer: Of course.

Question: What would they transmit then?

Answer: How can we rise even higher? Not in technology, not in machinery because that is no longer a problem for us. Rather, by uniting with each other we would begin to feel the forces of nature hidden from us and use them correctly.

We could fly in any direction, at any speed. For what? To engage in an even greater unification of nature.

Question: In other words, can we say that everything, even what we have created, all these technical means: the Internet, airplanes, traffic, is precisely for us to…?

Answer: Only to make sure that this is not what we really need. So that we would throw all these toys away and take care of our internal states.

Question: What is the ideal inner state we should arrive at?

Answer: Communication without words.

Question: Is this when we sit, stay silent, and connected?

Answer: Yes, that is how we communicate. A song without words. There is such a connection, without words. This allows everyone to communicate on the same frequency, on the same level, where we all understand each other.

It is not difficult for us at the level of our thoughts, they freely hover and interconnect. We comprehend the general plan of nature, what we have come to, to merge and to mutually complement each other in everything. And then we begin to comprehend perfection. It happens because we are completely different, but we want to feel our unanimity in our union. That is it.

We implicitly strive for it, although, of course, selfishly, and wrongly. But nature leads us to this state in such a way that we realize the depravity of our original state and its realization, and as a result, come to the correct balance with each other.

The current stage of our development is dissemination because the world needs the right interconnection or as we say, mutual guarantee (Arvut).

Let’s say everyone agrees: “Yes, we need to be mutually connected; otherwise, we will eat each other.” But how can we come to a mutual agreement?

This is where Kabbalah comes into play. Not the preliminary stages when we say, “Be a good boy,” but Kabbalah, because without the upper light, without its attraction, you will not be able to change yourself. You will always oppose others. Therefore, Kabbalah is necessary for people.

They must ensure that a kind to each other is needed because nature obliges us to mutual guarantee. We are on a small sphere and are completely connected to each other. It does not depend on us; it is a condition that obliges us from above, from nature, and it enclosed us all together: “And now, sort it out.”

We will either arrange a showdown and then everyone will stick a knife into each other, or we will try to somehow come to an agreement.

But how can we agree if we are all egoists and only think about how to achieve something using others? At the same time we realize that it no longer works through the other, that if the system is round, then we need to act together.

The center of this system should be a common goal for everyone: not me, not you, not everyone for themselves, but the center of the system. How can we change ourselves, our nature? For the first time in history, we come to the need to change not technology, not society, but the person himself.

And then Kabbalah will come on the scene as the only means of attracting the power of correction.

Question: In Erich Maria Remarque’s in The Arc de Triomphe the character Dr. Ravic is a stateless refugee in Paris in the unstable period between World Wars I and II. He is a skilled, but unlicensed surgeon who “ghost operates” on patients on behalf of lesser-skilled French surgeons.

He was stripped him of his German citizenship and unable to exist legally anywhere else in western Europe; Ravic manages to hang on. He is one of many displaced refugees, stateless people without passports or documents who live under constant threat of being captured and deported from one country to the next.

In the novel it is written that he lived, and that was enough. The era was unstable, so why try to build something if everything will inevitably collapse soon? He was portrayed as thinking it is better to go with the flow without wasting your strength since strength is the only thing that cannot be restored. Holding on was what was important, and the less strength you spend, the better. It is better to keep them in reserve.

Do you think it is right in difficult times, to lay low and not to waste your strength, and just hold on? Even if it is projected to our time. We have a similar time, you might say. How does one survive in this time which is rather vague?

Answer: Our time is not what it was then. I do not think it is that vague. Nowadays we are not in a state where we can declare something and it will affect something. Here such forces are involved in the battle among themselves that, no matter what you squeak, no one will take it into account.

Question: Then tell me, how do we live in such a time?

Answer: Exist. Today everything is so captured by all kinds of bodies in all countries—in all of them!—that all your attempts are futile.

Question: Is this how one should live? How?

Answer: No, I have my own line. I believe that a person should be educated on the topic of who governs the world, how the world is governed, and how to enter this upper governance and act through it. But this is not politics or journalism, nothing like that.

I think that this is the way we can seriously affect the world.

Question: So do you think that is why this time has come, so that we have such opportunities?

Answer: Yes.

Question: Is there such a thing as courage in order to come to this?

Answer: There is a different kind of courage here; it is in the fact that you have to confront your inner doubts, attitudes, and so on. That is the main thing.

Question: And the doubts are mainly: What kind of force is this? Does it exist at all?

Answer: Yes. We need to work to reveal it and to use it to move the world.

Question: Is this task peculiar to a strong person? Or can it become the task of any person to live like this and search?

Answer: I think that a person should feel a response in his heart. And then he will have the strength.

Question: So is the strength also given to him from above?

Answer: It will be given to him. He just needs to make a small effort. It is the same right to go through the years with the same goal, to despair and still get up and go.

Question: Can one person do this? Can he tune himself like this, all on his own?

Answer: I don’t know. Everyone is called Adam.

Question: From the word “similar to the Creator”? Is it about everyone?

Answer: About everyone, of course.

Question: What is your main advice nowadays?

Answer: Be human!

Question: Be Adam?

Answer: Yes.

Comment: I notice that people become more patient with time. Even overly active students who used to shout, try to prove something, and lead revolutions became calmer. They began to understand that it is not about external changes but internal ones.

My Response: Today the world is so well disposed to attain the Creator, to reveal Him, which is simply amazing! All the circumstances surrounding us help push us forward. And what else is there to do in this world?

Twenty years ago it was still impossible to talk to people about Kabbalah. Thirty years ago they didn’t care about us at all. What do you do? Is the world created to think about some high matters? “Grab everything you can! Whoever has a longer yacht has succeeded in life.” And now this all passes away. Some kind of realization is coming.

Of course there is a need to occupy life with something. People get carried away and  play with everything like boys in the yard, do this, and this, or that, in order to occupy themselves. They need excitement; they need a sense of life! It is just a pity that they feel this life for themselves in the form of a game. And there are people who are malnourished, do not know where they will lay their head, and so on. That is such a theater.

So this is a problem. However, according to the people who come to me, I see that they really feel that the world is not the same anymore. But it is they who are not the same! What about the world? Does the sun not shine?

Of course everything is changing. Look at the ecological situation! We see what is happening in the world. These are the first small waves of a hurricane, a cyclone, or a storm that is approaching us and will be flooding us. And humanity will not be able to do anything, even if it throws all its strength at it! Nothing!

Subsequently, it will discover that our desire and our thoughts are the greatest weapon in the world that is able to resist or cause any changes in the world. If we think well, and for us it is like thinking about a white elephant (it is almost impossible), yet if we somehow come to this state, then we will survive. And if not, then we will drown, die, and burn.

This is the problem; I have to think well, but I can’t. How should we act in this case? Here is where people will face the necessity to change themselves.

Each and every individual will understand that his own benefit and the benefit of the collective are one and the same, and by this, the world will come to its full correction (Baal HaSulam, “The Peace“). 

It may seem to someone that we are talking about communism or socialism here, but in fact, the wisdom of Kabbalah explains the general law of nature according to which all of nature is connected and linked in an integral form where everyone depends on everyone.

The wisdom of Kabbalah explains how we can influence general nature in order to benefit each element of nature as well as its general force, which is called the Creator.

Call it socialism or communism, it does not matter, but the general law of integral nature initially operates throughout the universe. There is only one force that acts, connects everything, and leads to complete unity. All parts of nature are connected to each other, and we have no right to pull them out of this integral dependence originally established in nature.

Therefore we have to study this law and know how to implement it without making any amendments of our own that seem more convenient and beneficial to us. Our task is to study the laws of nature and follow them. This advice is given to us by the wisdom of Kabbalah, and those who follow this advice will certainly succeed.

After the final correction, all humanity will unite in such a way that everyone will understand their destiny and the entire reality will be clearly revealed to us from end to end; that is, the Creator will be revealed to everyone. We will live in a clear, transparent world, and we will know how to correctly exist in mutual cooperation and unity, in an embrace with each other, and not only people, but in general all inanimate nature, plants, and animals.

In the News (The Guardian): “Five of the world’s most powerful nations have agreed that “a nuclear war cannot be won and must never be fought” in a rare joint pledge to reduce the risk of such a conflict ever starting.

“The pledge was signed by the US, Russia, China, the UK and France, the five nuclear weapons states recognised by the 1968 Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) who are also the five permanent members of the UN security council. They are known as the P5 or the N5. …

“‘We affirm that a nuclear war cannot be won and must never be fought,’ the statement said, echoing a joint declaration by Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev at a 1985 summit in Geneva. …

“The five nuclear weapons powers also stated that the ‘reduction of strategic risks’, making sure global tensions never lead to nuclear conflict, was one of their ‘foremost responsibilities’.”

Question: Trillions of dollars are spent on the arms race, and such sweet letters are swiftly signed: “We are against the arms race. We are for stopping it” (whatever you want). What kind of papers are these?

Answer: Everything that is written and said is said only for the people and nothing more. The people will swallow it all and everything will move on.

In principle, all this is done in order to stay in power, to keep stealing, plundering, controlling, and ruling. Almost everyone has one goal: “I want to stay in power. I need it; it is profitable, it is convenient… and after us, the deluge.”

Question: Tell me please, do people want to hear it?

Answer: Yes they do. That is why they sell it to them.

Question: At what point will it no longer be a sale, and we will really reach a place where, with pain in our hearts and with great desire, we will sign such a paper that we do not want, God forbid, some kind of nuclear war to take place? What would have to happen in the world?

Answer: To do this, we need to correct people. So that the ones below understand that this cannot be without correcting everyone, right up to the very top.

Question: And if a person understands this, what will happen? What will he demand?

Answer: Then he will demand universal education, new education—collective, loving, etc.

Comment: I would like to believe that we will reach such a state.

My Response: Yes. But not now and not with these declarations.

Comment: In our world a person is judged by his achievements in society, to what status he reaches.

My Response: To what status? Sometimes I watch the news on TV channels and that’s it. All other programs talk about all kinds of frauds, murders, punishments, about the army—everything is forceful. The triumph of power is promoted: here we are him, and he is us, who will crush whom, and so on.

Is it really possible to educate the population about this?! Not even just to educate, but somehow to nurture a new generation.

What kind of person do you end up with? We have no idea what we are doing with society at the same time! Or is this the state program? Maybe it’s called freedom: Do what you want?! This is terrible!

And the Internet is not a free field either. They are led by serious forces; the state should think about what is happening in the field of the Internet. There are laws for its development, switching, and management. Or does the state think it’s OK to have so many porn sites there? It is an unreasonable approach! This also affects a person!

Of course, things like violence and murder, should be mentioned but in a very limited way so that we can see that there are such things. People need to be educated! Man is an animal. Once he climbed down from a tree, but today he is worse than in those days.

So where is this government policy?! Any parliament in the world deals only with internal bruising and nothing else. Look at the structure of the world, what selfishness has brought us to!

I’m not against crime films. But these should be isolated cases from which you can learn something, and not shown on all channels. By watching all this, negative examples are deposited in our brain, and we are already acting on these patterns: This is how I saw it in this film. These pictures pop up in a person, and he realizes them. This is the current upbringing.

Comment: There is a parable about a frog who got stuck in the mud in a rut. No matter how hard she tried to get out, nothing worked. Friends tried to help to no avail, they failed.

In the evening, the exhausted friends went home and left their friend to the will of fate and were sure that they would come the next day, and she would no longer be there.

They came, and she was jumping merrily on the grass. They say, “How did you manage?!” “Very simply,” the frog replied, “a cart appeared, and I simply had no choice but to get out as soon as possible.”

How similar it is to our world, that we have to approach such a disaster that will simply crush us!

My Response: The awareness.

Question: Yes, and only then will we get out. You say that there is a path of goodness, and there is a path of suffering. We are on the path of suffering. Meaning, we should be crushed, and only then will we come to something good?

Answer: Yes. At the last step. Otherwise, we will not want to get rid of egoism. There must still be an ideological basis here, the solution to the problem is at its root—for what will we get rid of atomic weapons.

We must get rid of our desire to suppress, destroy, and dominate others. The desire to receive, the desire to suppress another is pure egoism. That is what we have to get rid of. This means, to come from hatred to love.

Such a turn is practically impossible. Only through the revelation of evil. And the revelation of evil can really only be global and only a free decision.

Question: So, we, like this frog, are in a rut? The cart is coming, and we still don’t care about it?

Answer: Yes. Moreover, we look at others, what would they do? Let them be the first to get scared and start doing something. But I hope that today’s situation also determines something.

Question: Is it not just a cart, but a tank that will crush us?

Answer: Yes.

Question: So, this fear, as you say, is at the heart of everything. And we will escape out of fear?

Answer: Yes. We will jump out of fear and from the realization of the inevitability of death. Moreover, we are not particularly afraid of death. It is just that the time will come, the condition of humanity will change, and we will understand that we have nowhere to go, and dying is also not an option, it is not a solution to the problem.

Question: And how does fear and the fact that committing suicide, dying, is not the solution to the problem, lead to the realization of the foundation that everything is in egoism, that it is to blame for everything? Where does this turnover happen?

Answer: A revolution occurs in a person when he suddenly begins to realize that even death does not save him from egoism. That even his death does not lead to the end of existence. He will exist in the feeling of such suffering, internal, it’s no longer a matter of physical, not bodily, the body already seems to be gone, but he will continue to suffer.

Question: And when will he realize that the cause of these sufferings is egoism? At what point is this understood?

Answer: When one has nothing left but egoism. When one sees that death does not save him and does not pull him out of terrible conditions, out of life. He will continue. After death, life continues, only in a different form, and he will suffer all the time, as in hell.

Question: And who will tell him that egoism is the cause of everything?

Answer: Then he will feel what sets him up to such a negative attitude to himself, to the world, to everything, and to egoism itself, which dominates him and always leads him from suffering to suffering.

Question: So, there will be this point that says: “I wanted to suppress everyone, but I have to suppress myself”? Will that be the feeling?

Answer: I think so. This is the solution. There is no other solution.

In our time, a hierarchy has formed in the world where there are only a dozen families or people who control the world and do everything they wish for themselves. It seems like they have boundless abilities, they are controlling humanity and limiting it from obtaining true information.

In addition, they limit us from getting medication, normal food, and cheap energy that could have been used a long time ago instead of oil, and they are doing this based on their egoism and their position.

Nothing about this can be done differently until humanity rises to such a degree of internal integration that it starts feeling the upper force, the upper governance. Only then will the world stop being controlled by a handful of people. They will not be able to stand in the way of the upper governance and limit our world in its positive development.

Of course, these people themselves are also angels; meaning, they are governed by the upper force. They are like a shadow of our flaws. When we begin to unite among ourselves, we thereby neutralize them. But for now, in our disconnection, in our egoism, it is as if we are sustaining them, we are their power source, and we are creating the conditions for their existence.

Question: Vladimir writes: “I have analyzed all sorts of conflicts in different historical periods. I came across an unexpected conclusion. The closer nations feel each other, the more intense hatred appears between them. Strangers can come to an agreement, but relatives are ready to fight until complete destruction. They do not agree to anything else.

Why can hatred between alien, distant nations end in peace, and hatred between close nations should end with the death of one of them?”

Answer: This is this very egoism that does not tolerate anything that exists next to it.

Comment: It would seem that with somebody close, you can somehow negotiate.

My Response: No! If he is close, but I hate him, I do not like him, and I do not somehow correspond to him, or him to me, then egoism is manifested to a great extent between us. As Vladimir writes, close countries especially hate each other.

Question: What conclusion can we draw here? At what point can close people become really close? Anyway, they are pushed to face the fact that they are close, after all.

Answer: Only love! Otherwise, if they just coexist side by side, it is an underdeveloped society, a society with underdeveloped egoism.

Question: In principle, if we are talking about countries, should the governments develop only love?

Answer: Yes.

Question: What do you mean by this word?

Answer: What does love mean? This is when I feel directly physically connected to the other, dependent on him, and he on me. In such a way that I cannot do without him, and he cannot do without me. This state of ours obliges us to take care of each other.

Question: Do I then have a desire for him to feel good all the time? To make him happy?

Answer: I think about him because by doing this I also ensure a good existence for myself.

Comment: You are not destroying this egoistic foundation. It exists all the time.

My Response: It is necessary. There is no getting away from it. This is like in a couple where they love each other, but it is egoistic love. They understand that it will be worse for them without each other. They take care of each other because in this they each take care of themselves.

Question: When does war happen, when does hatred happen, at what point?

Answer: It is when these ties are torn. When I am not worried about the other, then I start fighting with him. There can be no peace. There can be peace only when we are dependent on each other, and this dependence is mutual, and we must definitely be together.

Question: Does it mean that your main advice is to build such connections that it will be impossible to break them later?

Answer: Yes, depend on each other in everything. This is how it is in general nature, in space, everywhere.

Question: If we are talking about governments, is their main concern how they can no longer exist without another? I do not exist without the other, right?

Answer: Yes.

Question: Then what happened in the world? Why is it like this?

Answer: People have become independent. They believe that they can exist without the other, conquer the other, and so on. But in fact, this is not the right principle.

Question: But we have always said that the world is absolutely interconnected for us today. Why do we not see it?

Answer: We see. This is why the world still exists and depends on each other. Well, you see how this mutual dependence is used. In fact, they lead themselves toward impoverishment, death, and so on.

Question: Does the principle “So that I feel good, and so that he does not feel good” still rule?

Answer: Unfortunately, a person does not understand this general law that he can feel good only if everyone feels good.

Otherwise, everything is constantly boiling in a pot of hatred. This is our egoism, which the Creator created so that we would see that we cannot get along with each other in any way. The only way is to accept the governance of the Creator, the governance of love, and cover everything with this feeling, with this attitude.

Question: Is it this egoism that I have to cover with love?

Answer: Yes. This is what we need to implement every day. Remind each other every day, talk about it every day, and so on.

Comment: A person has a feeling all the time that the work must end one day. But you say it will never end.

My Response: Never. You have to think every day about how much you love another person and hear the same thing from him.

Comment: This requires not just mental strength, but upper forces!

My Response: When you realize that this is inevitable, then it does not seem hard for you.

Question: Is there a moment when it becomes an easy path?

Answer: Yes. It becomes second nature.

Question: What is needed for close people to exist in peace and love?

Answer: They should need each other. Need! Not in order to suppress and get rid of each other and be free, but due to the fact that their life, freedom, and existence depend on the other. All this closed nature will eventually lead us to this.

Question: What does “closed nature” mean?

Answer: An interconnected system of nature.

Question: So, is it for a reason that we are now being shown that we are interconnected?

Answer: Of course, it is in order to lead us to take care of the other.
