Question: How did the consumer society appear? After all, the desire to consume was created in people artificially through advertising, mass media, etc.

While in the past exploiters paid people so that they could survive, now they purposely pay more so that they can wander in malls. Surely this was done on purpose.

Answer: This is how man’s egoism was used. Now it has taken on other forms. People have changed. Today you can do somewhat different metamorphoses with them.

Remark: If the rich of this world have created this consumer society, then they themselves must change it.

My Comment: Those capitalists are gone. They are already different too.

Remark: But people who have billions today can create a new society you are talking about if they see benefit for themselves.

My Comment: I think it will not come from them. I do not expect anything good from people who hold on to their wealth and power. They cannot change because they were created that way.

Remark: It is difficult to understand how the transformation of society can take place, if not from the levers that authorities and the rich have.

My Comment: It comes from the inside. A man himself changes and changes society. Look at the new generation, how it differs from the past one. It will take a few more years, and all this will change anyway.

Question: Do you think that the economy changes because a man’s internal needs change?

Answer: The virus will help us. It will speed up this process.

Question: There are various conflicts in nature, especially in the animal world. Why, on a human level, should we rise above discord? Let’s live by nature!

Answer: We are descendants of the animal world, who have risen to the level of Man (Adam). Even our egoism is not the same as that of animals. They have it instinctively, given to them by nature, and they are not able to change it. They can only make the most of it for their own benefit.

Therefore, the animal level cannot be an example for us. Man is a social animal. To be socially useful, he must correct himself. There is nothing we can do here. We must do this; otherwise we will not have a future.

Remark: But we are part of nature…

My Response: We are part of nature only according to our animal body, but not according to our egoism. Do not confuse these two levels in us.

Question: Nowadays, passions about chipization are raging: There is a fear that implantation of chips will begin in order to track where a person is, with whom he meets, and so on. Sooner or later they will start doing this. What exactly are people afraid of? First, this certainly limits and kills a person’s freedom. You become completely controlled. Second, who will get hold of it?

How do you feel about this phenomenon?

Answer: Let us think this way: What is there for us to hide, after all?

Remark: But you will not deny that a person has a personal life, a family.

My Comment: But what can be private in this family? That I take care of my wife, my children, my grandchildren? What is so unnatural about that?

If I have good intentions, then, of course, sometimes they need to be hidden from someone, for example, from children, in order to ensure their correct gradual development. But in general, why should I be afraid?

Unless I steal, kill, cheat, plot evil against others, I am a normal person. Let everyone know everything about me.

But my relationship with the Creator—yes! No one can get into this, only the upper one.

And all the rest, that of animal nature—no problem!

Remark: But there are state secrets.

My Comment: Let the state take care of this, this is its business, and I have nothing to worry about. I feel free!

Question: It means I do not care?

Answer: No! This is not a devil-may-care attitude. I just understand that a man is a small animal who still must try to behave correctly. And to this extent, he has nothing to be ashamed of. And to the extent that he cannot behave correctly, there is also nothing to be ashamed of! Because it is his nature!

Remark: The second point is very important: I hide my actions. Figuratively speaking, here I steal, there I lied to someone, and I told the truth to someone else. This is my life, this is me.

My Comment: There is nothing special to hide. If everyone is calm about being open to others, the world will become cleaner.

Well, I lied a little somewhere, but this is my nature. I promised something to somebody, but did not keep my promise. It may be unpleasant, I may feel uncomfortable, but forgive me, do me a favor!

Remark: Can you imagine what kind of support you knock out from people who claim: “I never lie, I always tell the truth. I have always lived honestly.”

My Comment: How honestly? By what criteria?! If you take history books of any country, you will see that everything needs to be rewritten. But how? By another lie.

Everyone has their own view of the world—what it is like. That is, until we rise above egoism, we have nothing to worry about.

At the level of egoism, everything is a lie. And there is nothing to be ashamed of. Kabbalah says about this very simply: “Go to the Creator who created me.” Do you have any complaints against me? Go to Him, He created me, that is why I act this way.

And then the second question arises: He created you that way and told you to stay that way, or can you change yourself? If you can change yourself, then you should already be ashamed of the opportunities that you have in order to become a person responsible for yourself, but you do not use them. But even on this score there are some exemptions, some leeway: “Well, what can I do? It is the environment, and so on.”

But still, the most important thing is to be honest so that we do not lie to ourselves! This is gradually becoming possible. A person becomes cleaner, more straightforward. This is called “the truth.”

And if not—let them stick chips anywhere. But this is not a correction.

The point is that, whether we want it or not, nature, the Creator, will press us in this respect. And we suddenly find ourselves with all sorts of chips, not even knowing where and how we have swallowed them. We have got them under our skin, as they say, and those who need it know everything about us. Here is “big brother,” do not worry, he knows everything.

Question: That is, we will get to this state?

Answer: I think it practically exists already.

Question: You suggest that we simply change our attitude toward this and that is it?

Answer: No, it is not just changing attitudes. It means to change ourselves! And then I do not care what they think of me. Let them poke around.

It is important for me to change myself in such a way that without any chips I would stay naked in front of the Creator. I need to feel it! And act accordingly.

Remark: But I still need to understand that the Creator exists.

My Comment: The Creator is a common force of nature that forces us to be human beings! That is, to act not for our own sake, but for everybody’s sake.

Question: The virus that has spread now is, as it were, an accelerator leading precisely to this understanding?

Answer: Yes. It is He who makes the first “chipization.”

Question: Who chips us? In whose hands am I? Okay, the Creator—this still needs to be dealt with. But some evil person who has bad intentions, who wants to rule me and the whole world—that is what people are afraid of.

Answer: But the Creator stands above him as well. So why should I even consider some kind of governing, guarding, dictating body? Why should I think about it? I have a connection with the Creator.

Question: Do you suggest that a person go through the authority of this world and immediately turn to the one who rules the world?

Answer: Of course! Why hang out at this level? After all, it is a swamp. Stop paying attention to them, in this you are free.

Question: Am I free to ignore people around me?

Answer: Not those around you, but those who allegedly control you. I do not feel that they suppress me! Freedom is an inner sensation. That is why I do not feel it.

Question: So you say we should undergo chipping with the Creator? It is He who chipped me.

Answer: Yes. I am connected with Him anyway. He is in me, in my every cell, in my nerves, in my feelings, and in my mind—in everything. He defines everything I feel. He defines everything I think, all my actions and decisions. I just need to reveal this—how I act so that He acts in me.

Remark: If possible, can you give a simple piece of advice to an ordinary person about chipping, loss of freedom, and who controls him.

My Comment: Live quietly and seek the Creator in yourself, how He is inside you, how He acts, works, and controls you, and how you should relate to Him in that.

The Creator is the general, upper force of nature.

Question: And what does it demand of me?

Answer: That you take into account that you are a small part of this force that cares about all of nature. That is, you treat everyone and everything with this awareness.

Question: And how should I relate to my environment, to those close to me?

Answer: As to one general, integral mechanism, which is benevolent to all its parts, and operates according to the same scheme—love for one’s neighbor, in one direction.

Question: And then I will not be afraid of any chipization?

Answer: It is not scary anyway.

The main thing in the fight against coronavirus is to understand the disease itself. Until we understand what state we are in, we will not be able to move forward to the next stage toward healing. After all, nature is not going to give us a miracle cure that will allow us to end the virus and forget about it.

Nature’s purpose is not to guide us through the disease and cure us. Nature wants the suffering from the virus to compel us to reveal the human factor in it, that is, our disconnection and unkind relations with each other.

And then we will correct the attitude of one to another, in order to start worrying about what other people think and feel, we will understand what is in their hearts. If we do not establish such a relationship, we will continue to suffer from the coronavirus or other viruses that are behind it in a long line. The epidemic will not end because we are in a new era and are obliged to correct the peoples’ attitude toward others.

Every bad state is the result of our hatred for each other. The very realization of this already serves as the beginning of the treatment. If humanity hears this message, this is already half of the cure. We don’t need all these vaccines. Every country is now trying to be the first to release a vaccine against the coronavirus, not in order to cure humanity, but to make money on it.

This is exactly the opposite action. Every country wants to sell a vaccine. It is not proud of the fact that it can save all of humanity, it does not offer everyone: “Take our vaccine and be treated!” No, it says, “Buy this.” That is, here we are acting exactly opposite of how this blow directs us. And so the vaccine will not bring any improvement.

But we already have a cure for the coronavirus, we have a vaccine. And it is very simple: a kind attitude toward each other neutralizes all viruses. Did you want a vaccine? You have it! Everyone has a cure for the virus in their hearts. Use it! Nothing is needed other than this.

This antivirus in the heart is love, unity, closeness of the heart. It is the most reliable medicine that destroys all viruses. Let’s run clinical trials like trial vaccines are being tested now. We will organize a group in which people really start to get closer to each other, and make sure that they are not affected by the coronavirus.

And in this a woman with her mother’s heart has a special role. If women really wanted to get rid of the coronavirus, and realized that this was possible due to their joint efforts, they would do it.

Otherwise, the epidemic will grow, because the summer is over and children are returning to school. And then the time will come for holidays, festive gatherings and prayers. If we leave everything as it is, there will be no end to the blows. Nature will not yield.

We are in a new era called the “last generation,” and we must come to love our neighbor as ourselves. Only this can be a cure for all diseases that are now awaiting humanity, in all forms. We don’t even know where to expect blows from, but they will come.

We hope that women all over the world will hear us and understand that in the heart of every person, and especially women, there is a power that can save everyone. It seems that the relationship between people has no connection with the virus, with chemistry and biology, but in fact it does. Our relationship has the highest, hidden power, and therefore, only by correcting them, can we cope with viruses. Otherwise, we will all suffer, and above all, women.

Understanding that the virus appears as a result of an egoistic connection between us, and good relations destroy the virus and serve as a medicine—this very knowledge will already begin to heal us. Good relationships are the source of all good, and the lack of such connection is the source of all evil, and the coronavirus is meant to prove it to us.

A woman as a mother should direct the whole family to treat others kindly. Do you remember how our mother instructed us, sending us to school or walking in the yard: “Be a good child, do not fight, and then they will not hurt you either. Cross the street only along the proper passage. Take care of others, help them, and then they will help you too.” This is called being a “good kid.” So let’s all be good kids. And women, mothers, must tell us this. After all, we do not lose anything by it!

Why do we teach children to behave well on the street and are confident that it will do them good? Because we know that kindness evokes kindness in return. And it’s the same here, let’s become kinder to each other and see how it helps. And if it suddenly does not destroy the coronavirus, then what do we lose by limiting our selfishness a little, which brings us so many troubles?

It is worth trying the medicine that is already within us. It already exists, we don’t need to invent anything. And I am sure that if we use this medicine that is in our heart, we will defeat all viruses.

The world has already gone through all the preparatory stages: the ultra-right regimes and the ultra-left and came to complete confusion and misunderstanding. Nobody knows what to do next, and here the direct path is revealed.

During the history of mankind, on the path of evolution, we were figuring out where to go: to the left or to the right. But in the end, we see that nothing remains, we are at a dead-end in terms of all areas: ecology, human society, education, our whole life.

We tried all the methods and made sure that there is not a single method or program left with which to go forward. There is nothing that would attract from the front or push from behind. It is not clear what to do.

Here the method of the science of the wisdom of Kabbalah is revealed, explaining to us that we are in the so-called last generation precisely because we have already experienced all the paths. We tried to use our egoism on both the right and the left sides, everything in an egoistic form.

We are immersed in our egoism, and we can either receive in it or give. But both of these actions, produced within egoism, lead to destruction: in the case of receiving—as in Nazi Germany, and with giving—as in communist Russia. We have already completely exhausted these egoistic forms, both right and left. There is nothing else that remains.

Now we only need to rise up to the second floor, to the what is called faith above knowledge, to the power of bestowal, instead of the power of receiving. We have already squeezed out this power of reception to the last trying to find ways of development. There is no way to develop further in egoism. There is nothing more to do on this egoistic plane; all attempts will lead us to new destruction.

Even if we do nothing, we have already done so much bad for our planet that we will inevitably continue to slide lower and lower even without adding anything to the damage. There are several decades left and life on this Earth will be finished.

Human egoism can be corrected only by the method of Kabbalah with the help of the power received from above, which raises us above our egoism. This is how we build the right connection between people. In Germany they wanted to do it their own way, in Russia in their own way: some on the right side, others on the left. Both attempts resulted in destruction.

Now the question is: what to do? To rise to the spiritual level, above egoism, and start working for the sake of bestowal—only this way remains for humanity. To rise to the spiritual level means to do everything for the good of the people.

We can no longer use our egoism. All people must understand, feel, and draw conclusions from their lives that the use of egoism destroys us at the inanimate, vegetative, and animate levels in the field of ecology, and at the human level in the sphere of society.

There is no other way out. If we simply want to live, then we can no longer swing either to the left or to the right, but must rise above our nature.

Day by day the situation is getting worse all over the world. This indicates that humanity is not moving in the right direction and is not sweetening its condition.

Instead of following the path of light desired in the eyes of creation and the Creator, humanity, due to a lack of understanding of what is happening and what needs to be done, follows the path of suffering, the natural development of events, that is, under the pressure of forces that oblige us to advance. So, we follow that way as if there is no other choice.

It cannot be said that there is a real awareness of evil, but it is clear that the state is bad and may not be corrected anymore, but will only deteriorate more and more. The crisis affects everyone, both ordinary workers and managers. Many already understand that this is not just a virus, but a phenomenon that will change our whole life. This is becoming more evident every day.

At the same time, people still hope that if a cure for coronavirus is found quickly, they will be able to return to their old life. They do not understand that the virus does not hit our health, but much deeper. Nature began a global treatment for humanity. It did not seek to confine us to our homes and distance us two meters from one another, forbidding us to communicate, celebrate weddings together, sit with friends in a restaurant.

Nature had a completely different intention: it wanted to give us room, free space, time, and the opportunity to understand and feel why all this was done, for what purpose. This is not just an epidemic, but a higher, integral, global, and special phenomenon. It is difficult to grasp it right away, but humanity is already approaching it.

Blows are the surest way to reach our minds and hearts and make us aware of our condition. We must try to explain to people why nature does this to us. Nature is an integral, global mechanism that acts on us and gradually advances us along the path of evolution, that is, the program of creation. We are developing according to a higher plan.

The science of Kabbalah explains to us what kind of program it is and what steps we need to go through. It is impossible to escape from this program. You can only change method of our progress toward unification, the goal of development, from bad to good.

Likewise, in raising children, if a child listens to his parents, then he is treated well, and if he does not want to listen, then you have to put pressure on him and even punish him. It is said that “he who spares the rod hates his son.” (Proverbs 13:24) The goal is already outlined from the beginning, and we must come to it.

Soon we will be left without money, without food. The sooner we explain the true reason, the fewer blows we will get that are intended to lead a person to a new, correct order of life.

We cannot wait for this to be done by the forces of nature that beat us and seem devoid of compassion and feelings. They did come after we had not heeded the warnings of nature and had not made an effort to go on a good path.

It is necessary to explain to everyone that it is not the epidemic or the virus that is to blame. There is simply one force that acts very harshly and is forced to put pressure on us, like a parent on naughty children. We must develop, no question about it.

But we can choose a good, easy, beautiful, and fast path if we direct our hearts and minds to the goal to which nature leads us: to our unification and organization of life here on this earth, in a simple and good form. On the material side, you need to keep what is necessary. The main thing is to direct yourself toward spiritual development, that is, toward connection from heart to heart.

People feel more unhappy day by day because they cannot see the image of the future that nature is leading us to. They think that it is just a disease and one day we will recover from it. Let us spend money on it, some will get sick, some will even die, but eventually, the epidemic will end, and we will return to normal life.

Every country is struggling to return to its usual life. Every politician convinces us that he has a solution to restore the old way tomorrow. This is known and desirable to everyone because we understand how to live in it.

But it is impossible to reverse the process of evolution. We see from history that we pass from state to state and move on to the next stages. Now nature requires us to move to a new stage where humanity must become closer to each other sensually. In addition, we must take care of our home, our planet, and together take care of our future.

After all, in this, we all depend on each other. We cannot make distinctions between peoples, countries, we must think about the global state.

Let each of us be an egoist who thinks only of himself, who does not care about anyone else in the world, but if we want to survive, we must think about everyone. After all, we are all in one boat.

Question: Money is the equivalent of the value of goods and services. For the past 200 to 300 years, people have been fighting for equality, including in wages.

Yet, how can we talk about equality if we do not know the initial qualities of a person? After all, the amount of effort per hour of work for each person is different. Does it mean that there can be no economic equality?

Answer: It does not matter. We separate what a person should give to society from what one should receive from society, and we do not place any connection between them.

What I can give to society depends on the education I receive: I am ashamed to give less. What I receive from society depends on the fact that I am a person who exists in this world and I need to get a certain number of benefits, which I use and can exist and realize myself.

Today, the world has already come to the point where, if we wanted to, we could give this to practically everyone.

Question: How long will it take for a person to change the paradigm of their life?

Answer: This depends on the widespread dissemination of the correct education. If there is a society around that will do this and live like this, then people, especially the younger generation, will understand that this is the atmosphere we should exist in.

We will come to it as a result of education, from a sense of necessity, and not because we have to suppress ourselves.

Question: One of the types of economic relations is loans and credit, when one party receives money from the other and after some time has to return it with interest. Is this in accordance with the laws of nature or not?

Answer: No. Not in any case, any interest at all. Do you want to lend to someone else? Please help him, and he will help you later. You are not doing it to make money; you are doing it to help him.

We all live on the same small globe, and we must help each other. People who exchange objects or goods, from the result of their labor, should not pursue profit; it is just a natural exchange.

Comment: The media is in the hands of wealthy people, and therefore they change public opinion. If today they sell household goods and services, in the future they will sell products and services of a social nature, and still profit from it.

My Response: Why do they need to profit? They will not feel any fulfillment from it. Well, what sort of necessary things can they purchase?

If we give them normal development, they will not enjoy these gains. Let’s say a person buys a castle. What will he do there? Walk around and catch ghosts?

Everything depends on the development of a person. If you give him the right upbringing, he will not have such needs. He will need normal communication in a normal society. Nothing else.

Question: But before we get to the stage of proper education someone has to start implementing this education. Who?

Answer: We, the Kabbalists.

Comment: But for now, all funds are in the hands of rich people. I don’t think they’ve lost their desire to be rich.

My Response: Never mind, gradually it will pass. This is unavoidable. This is the law of nature. According to the plan of nature, we must come to a state of complete harmonious connection with it, that is, to become an integral community.

Question: What is relative equality in society, and how to not come to equalization?

Answer: There should be no such equality in society as under the Soviet regime when everyone was driven to this happiness with a stick.

Question: Indeed, everyone has their own needs. How can this be determined?

Answer: You need to give a person what they need. And then he will reduce his needs to the necessary level due to the education he receives.

Question: If a person stops obeying the laws of nature on the level of thoughts and feelings, does this mean that he actually has to change himself on this level?

Answer: We don’t need anything else. Thoughts and feelings are what we have. Once we see that we don’t operate correctly—and this happens in our thoughts and feelings—we will begin to change. We don’t need any motion at all. Our future is eventually beyond the physical world.

Remark: According to what you say, unity between people is the remedy against viruses since the virus fears the unity between us. But we see that it is the opposite, that the remedy against the spreading of the virus is keeping our distance and isolation.

My Comment: This is the case now because we are still egoists. If we don’t want to impact each other negatively and make room for the virus between us, we need to draw away from each other.

Question: We need to change our perception of others, and then different practical actions will develop as a result. This means that you don’t advise us to do anything except change our attitude. But is that possible without practical actions?

Answer: No, we need to perform practical actions and we need to help each other so that each of us will constantly change our perspective of others for the better.

Question: If, under the threat of destruction, humanity understands that the solution to the problem is only the struggle with our ego, and people will begin to artificially relate to each other seemingly with love, what will we gain from that?

Answer: It will enable us to draw the positive force of nature that can raise us above our ego and give us the strength to use it correctly.
