Listen To The Words Of The Kabbalists!

laitman_259_01When I speak about the laws of nature in my lectures, people don’t like to hear what I say and ignore the information I have to convey to humanity. The laws of nature are fixed and tough laws and we have to obey them or at least listen to the wisdom of Kabbalah, which is based on the wisdom of generations that is 6,000 years old.

We need to implement these laws since they operate all of nature. If we don’t keep them, we will summon tough suppressing forces instead. The plan of the laws of nature and their fulfillment will force us to adapt ourselves harmoniously to the general mechanism of nature. The motion of all of humanity and nature that surrounds us depends on our efforts to ascend to the next level, to the next dimension, to a totally different system. Only now do physicists begin to discover the new options of transcending to a different reality, but the wisdom of Kabbalah has been speaking about that for 6,000 years.

Kabbalists experience the process of transition. They see, feel, and enter new dimensions and, at the same time, also live in our world. Although they cannot show that, they simply call us to behave more wisely for our own sake.

Kabbalists call for humanity to unite not just for the sake of world peace, this is not enough in the general framework of our general development. We must unite in order to exit the present level of our existence and reach the next level because we are ready for it and the transition is essential for all of nature.

This is the reason that nature is putting pressure on us, first on the Jews and then on the other peoples of the world. The world has completed its evolution along the positive way and this will not last much longer. We will soon witness the gradual destruction of the ties between states and nations, between different entrepreneurs etc., and so we have nowhere to escape, and we will have to act according to the laws of nature.

I take the liberty to say the most unpleasant things because it is the truth. I want to warn you about it. And don’t compare me to social and political actors, each of whom pursues what is beneficial to him, and thus promotes himself. I am not interested in self-promotion and it is even better if you don’t mention my name at all. The main thing is that you understand the goal of nature that doesn’t change its course and how it crushes all of us like a steam roller. Therefore, if we want our children and grandchildren to go through this path of development in a correct, good, and easy manner and to understand it, I appeal to you.

I look at the people who attack me and interestingly they are all sure that they know what the wisdom of Kabbalah is, but since the wisdom of Kabbalah speaks about what is against their desires, they claim that I don’t understand and that the information I convey is unreliable. The wisdom of Kabbalah is the science nature, the laws of nature and how it develops, and we have to relate to it more seriously! When I turn to the masses they believe that I am “pushing” my policy. It is not the policy of political figures from different countries who think we have to act in one way or another. I don’t think anything.

I simply convey the program of nature, the information about its laws, its method, and its trends and present it in an easy and accessible manner, so that we can undergo the situations nature will force us to undergo by its pressure anyway in a simple free and positive way. It isn’t about my personal opinion, although these things are attributed to me personally. I am simply the “translator” who conveys the secrets of nature. There is nothing that I want in what I say, and those who think that I express my own opinions in my lectures are very wrong. These aren’t my opinions but the laws of nature!

Open the original Kabbalistic books, read them and see what they say. I convey to you what the authentic primary Kabbalistic sources that were written during 6,000 years say. These sources have exonerated themselves and have been fulfilled throughout history. I am simply telling you about what is happening today and about what is going to happen tomorrow or maybe the day after tomorrow so that it will be easier for us to encounter tomorrow! You should try to relate more consciously and responsibly to what the wisdom of Kabbalah says. It is only for our sake. I am merely doing my job and don’t ask for any pay or recognition in return.

Question: What do you expect from someone who hears you?

Answer: First of all to refrain from condemning me, because a person cuts himself off from the correct understanding of what is happening in the world from the Kabbalistic interpretation of the events.

I am like a litmus test in which his relation to me determines a person’s attitude to nature. The main thing is that you see that everything that I say is absolutely not my own idea. It was written in Kabbalistic books starting from the days of Abraham, including The Book of Zohar, the writings of the Ari, Ramchal, Baal HaSulam, Rabash, Rav Kook, and others. Their main idea is a call for unity, to connect and to unite despite our impulses to be separate, to compete, and to push each other. Our role is to unite above the separation; this is the goal.

Question: What should a person who hears this call do?

Answer: There is a method of unity for the masses that is basically fulfilled by sitting in a circle and discussing different issues according to the wisdom of Kabbalah. People suddenly feel close in a circle, and when they get closer a special force is revealed between them, a feeling of elation about our world.

There is a method of unity for the masses, which is implemented mainly in the circle. By sitting down in a circle and starting to discuss what Kabbalah advises, people suddenly feel closer to each other, and this convergence evokes some kind of special power and warmth. They feel like they are raised above our world.

So I would very much like to see in a circle people who seriously perceive my words, instead of vilifying me. We will all be better off if we go through this period in history so that at least something will be left of us.

Globalization, A Growing World Disorder

laitman_426Opinion (Le Figaro): “Now, all indicators of the global economy economy do not confirm the advance of globalization, but rather its sharp decline on all fronts. Despite the austerity programs implemented in its name, it is however not at the rendezvous. Rather, it seems to move away to disappoint its supporters, while the other national control levers, monetary and fiscal, formerly repudiated in its name again become topical implicitly. In this current year, the global economy is cornered again on the brink of an even deeper abyss that could jeopardize all the political temptation to date. …

“The fundamental drivers of  globalization – (a) direct investment across borders, (b) international trade, (c) international financial stability – already seem ineffective, especially since 2010, to ensure the necessary stability and cohesion of the global economic system. International direct investment, assumed the first pillar of globalization continues to contract in 2015 to go below 2% of GDP of the main countries investing abroad. …

“However, the stock of debt, both public and private, continues to accumulate impetuously and much faster than the growth of GDP of indebted countries. …

“This is not the ‘too much debt’ that blocks the growth, as claimed by creditors, but rather it is ‘not enough’ growth, because of the focus on austerity measures and precipitation of alleged ‘reforms’ to recessionary effects, making the country the world less and less able to service their debts. …

“On the other hand, the engine of international trade, also fundamental pillar of globalization, is also being abruptly slow down even more strongly than world GDP. …The decline in international trade, falling commodity prices (commodities) and even non-oil is even more significant. These prices collapse first, pulling down all the others. As Daniel Gros, director of the European Policy Studies Centre in Brussels, as the economies growth rates exceed those of international trade in raw materials, it would conclude necessarily the emergence of new raw materials substitution domestic origin that no longer pass through international trade. This would indicate that at least the savings models ‘learned’ by exports continue increasingly to recipe and that domestic markets would be trying to replace at least in part, to external demand that is becoming increasingly failing. Obviously, if this is the case, it would be a necessary rebalancing of the exterior to the interior, which in any case would result in loosening of the ties of globalization for the benefit of more coherent national or regional economic entities and self-centered, less dependent on the outside. Besides, if this turning savings into their inner space is confirmed, also more easily understand the parallel swelling debts, since these correspond to higher deficits and higher public expenditures to stabilization period crisis, of course discrepancy compared to the directives of the globalist orthodoxy. If in all the crises in history, the role of the state has always emerged stronger, if only to offset the devastating effects of each crisis, why should it be the same with the latter? It is hard not to see in the new global crisis looming, the change of economic model. Including the assumption of the virtues of extraversion may be among the key issues of this crisis.

“As globalization remains entrusted to international finance, the impact on the real economy prove devastating for everyone, including for its promoters. Finance should not control the economy, but to follow it and to his service. But now, with the order of things upside down, instead of a new world order announced globalization with finance to commands only brings a deep global disorder referring to the darkest periods of the history.”

My Comment: If all the calculations to come are senseless, and not a flexible rationality, then nothing will stop the world and it will continue to roll down to the bottom.

Earthquakes In Japan And Ecuador

laitman_738Question: As a result of the series of earthquakes in southwestern Japan, close to 40 people were killed and more than 2,000 were injured. The same thing also happened in Ecuador; there the number killed reached 233 people, and more than 1,500 injured.

Why in these peaceful and harmless nations do terrible tragedies like these occur?

Answer: It is very difficult to explain this because everything depends on the general distribution of humanity on the surface of the Earth. Why does a disaster like this suddenly happen specifically to these people and not others? What is the connection to Ecuador?

If we seek a reason for what is happening, soon everyone will say and write that the Jews are to blame for all the disasters. For every problem that appears in the world they will only blame the Jews. Through their incorrect behavior, the lack of union among them, such behavior is aroused both in nature and in the nations of the world.

Nature begins to become unbalanced, which is expressed in climate change, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and additional disasters. We arouse the lack of balance in nature and human society in all its forms. So we are to blame for everything!

Question: But the direct connection is not visible to the eye and a person doesn’t feel guilty. So why does the upper force behave with us like that?

Answer: To see a direct connection, you must reveal the upper system of management. Otherwise it is impossible because you would then behave because you were coerced, trying to avoid blows. But it is up to you to behave differently; it is up to you to carry things out independently, without the goading of the main law of nature, the Creator, the law of unity between all of its parts.

This is in your hands. It is up to you to move toward this by yourself, through wanting to elevate yourself to the level of Adam (Man) and not remain on the level of a “beast.”

Question: And for this purpose thousands of people are killed?

Answer: Billions of people innocent of crime! Imagine what kind of guilt rests on your shoulders.

There is nothing else. Read what is written in the books of Kabbalah. All the great representatives of our people have talked about this, beginning from Abraham and on.

We are responsible for all the problems of the world and also for all of its happiness, if we behave appropriately.

I believe that it is up to us to think seriously about what is happening and about what the wisdom of Kabbalah says. Otherwise, we will be taught through even more terrible bloody methods than we witnessed 70-80 years ago.

Muslims In Europe Are Converting To Christianity

Laitman_419Question: Quite a few Muslims in Europe are converting to Christianity. Do they do it in order to be accepted in Europe and to start a new life or is it some kind of a trick?

Answer: When nations integrate this way there is always a process of diffusion and so it is hard to say what the reason for this behavior is.

I believe that Muslims will convert to Christianity just as many Europeans converted to Islam, but it will not be very many people because Muslims have a very strong sense of mutual guarantee and responsibility and of course the punishment according to their faith is much more severe than according to any other faith. When they convert to Christianity, they risk their lives.

Therefore, I don’t think that there will be a movement of converting to Christianity. Perhaps politicians and western political scientists exaggerate on purpose, publicizing this phenomenon in order to soften the opposite process of Europeans converting to Islam.

The Failure Of The Belgian Security Forces

laitman_547_05Comment: The reasons for the failure of the security forces in Belgium have been exposed. The first reason is the ongoing division and mutual animosity between the Flemish in the North and the Walloons in the South. The second reason is the pathological unwillingness to recognize the character of the war that Islamic Jihad has declared on all forms of the free world.

Answer: That is why there is such underestimation of the danger of terror: it will not be published anywhere, there is nowhere for it to be illuminated. Governments pressure the press; for a long time already in all nations the media and the governments work in partnership. This is no secret.

Journalists operate precisely according to the instructions of the state and say: “We have no terrorism. There are individual terrorists whom we must expose and isolate from society. This is irrelevant to the huge mass of Muslims who are filling our nations.”

Comment: This mass has actually declared war on Europe.

Answer: They claim: “There is no war!” “These are people who are friendly and whom we need. It is just that there are extremists among them sometimes. We only have to get rid of them, while all the rest are very good people.”

Comment: As has been clarified, there is an additional reason for the failure of the Belgian security forces, which is again what you have been talking about all the time.

The Israeli television host, Ya’akov Eilon, interviewed a high level Belgian politician from the Socialist Party and asked him to comment on the terrorist activity in Belgium. The politician claimed that Israel is to blame for the wave of terrorism that has flooded Europe because of the occupied territories and not implementing the program for the establishment of a Palestinian state.

Answer: Yes, they say very clearly: “You have transformed the Middle East into a terrible powder keg, you sow famine and misery there. People flee from there like crazy wherever possible. Look at what you did in Iraq and Syria….”

Question: But what is our connection to this? Where is the logic?

Answer: “No, this is you, you. This ‘Mossad’ of yours intentionally organized this so that they wouldn’t fall on you with their justifiable fury. And after the population that supports peace and the poor flee from these places, we are forced to receive them and suffer because of your aggression.”

Question: And where is the “Islamic State” here that is slaughtering the Muslims?

Answer: “There is no Islamic State! There are only a few crazy extremists there and the cause is not in the millions of refugees. It is only because you are sowing misery throughout the Middle East.

Through your clever Jewish methods you have undermined all the neighboring nations and it is not known at all how you influence them politically, economically, and especially psychologically. People simply don’t know where to flee from you.”

Question: Does this mean that you are still convinced that these individual voices will become the one voice of Europe?

Answer: Certainly. Hitler was alone and all of us have seen what he did.

The ground exists, it is just “waiting” for the seed to fall into it. Then the whole world will flare up against Israel! This is our future if we don’t wake up and begin to behave in such a way that summons the upper force, which arranges all of these circumstances for us so that we will begin to work in the opposite and positive direction. The Creator is managing all of this. This is His true action. The hand of the Creator is in everything. There is none else beside Him.

We are to blame for not balancing the two forces that exist in the world, the positive and the negative. So this is what happens.

1.7 Trillion Dollars For War

Laitman_025_02Question: In 2015, the world military spending increased by 1.7 trillion dollars. The top five include the United States, China, Saudi Arabia, Russia, and Britain.

The nations neighboring Russia and the Ukraine, Estonia, Latvia, Poland, and Romania, fearing military conflict, greatly increased their military might. The report said that military spending will only continue to grow.

Why not distribute this money in social areas?

Answer: This is impossible because avarice and greed run the world. The nations are not concerned about their safety;  pride, greatness, pomposity, and conceit are typical of every nation.

Basically this is talking about untiring egoism. Unfortunately, we see this very well in the case of what the United States and Russia want to show: “We are first in everything! We are the best of all….”

Question: Could this money be used for something else?

Answer: This could be used first for education, meaning not in the direction of the development of military technologies, but in the direction of human development. Then we would rapidly reach a situation in which the question about the goal of life and the possibility of attaining it would appear among people.

Then we would have no need for any weapons! We would rise to a level where all the forces of nature would be revealed without these mechanical “trinkets.” But we are bogging down more and more into this swamp today and annihilating each other.

Humanity refuses to hear what the wisdom of Kabbalah says. It has many opponents and the biased media are trying in every way to vilify this wisdom. So unfortunately, it is a big problem to convey the message about the true goal of human development to people.

Nothing good will grow if we don’t open the eyes of the world to the fact that the tendency of our development should be different and people must decide this. If we do not solve this with common sense and yearn to attain the goal of nature, then nature will push us toward the final goal through suffering by way of terrible world wars.

A New World War Is Already Underway

laitman_272Comment: The head of the EuroAsian Economic Community (EurAsEC) Institute published a lengthy article in which he said that a world war is already underway, but not on the level of nations as was in previous centuries; rather, it is on the level of what is called the global marketplace.

In the article, he describes very accurately that terrorists and mercenaries will physically fall in this war. Nations are named in whose territory there will be civil wars. He even paints their goals of global domination.

Answer: War will not disappear, it just transforms from a revealed to a more hidden form with different technological methods.

With the end of the Second World War, the development of markets began, and their leaders moved to the front of the stage. The magnates at the top of the economic pyramid created major corporations that are above all politics. They have their own point of view about the world.

Question: Do they manage the physical world?

Answer: They don’t manage anything. They insert their changes according to how the higher management changes the world.

Underlying all is the upper force that conducts its effect on the world through us. On the other hand, being in the world, its effect influences us!

As a result, working with both sides, through us and through the world, it teaches us what we should be, understanding it through the drop-down world, through our reaction to it, through our impact on the world and its response to us. This is how it teaches us all the time.

Its mission is to lead us to ensure that we become equal, similar, and equivalent to it.

Question: That is, we have no freedom because the upper force presses on us from both sides?

Answer: Certainly! Freedom is just recognizing that there is no freedom and to find ourselves in it. In other words, because this power is complete and singular, by wanting to follow it and be like it, by learning to consciously repeat and discover all of your deviations from its behavior, you study yourself, and in this manner you are constantly directed toward it correctly!

You see how you grow and understand with whom you are working, as a tango.

The task of humanity is to enter into this tango with the Creator. All of the wars, suffering, and blows of nature are pushing us toward this.

France Prefers Muslim Refugees

Laitman_727Comment: France is a Christian and Catholic nation, yet mainly accepts Muslim refugees, while Christian refugees standing in crowds at the border of Iraq seeking entry to France are refused.

The newspaper Figaro conducted a study and found that the left wing of the ruling Socialist party doesn’t want to look as if France prefers Christians.

Answer: A corrected humanity should consider everyone absolutely equally, yet this is not happening anywhere in the world. A Christian, Catholic, or Protestant nation must first and foremost take in the Christians who are suffering throughout the Middle East before they are killed. Their number there is not so great.

Comment: They are killing masses of Yazidi families who have fled Mosul.

Answer: The Muslims are intentionally killing Christians; so they should be taken in first.

Comment: They are sitting in Iraq and waiting for exit visas, but they aren’t getting them. Instead, the authorities conduct rigorous testing and require proof of the vulnerability of their position.

Answer: In the meantime they are accepting right-wing extremist Muslims.

Comment: The newspaper Figaro asks: “Why does such a large nation like France, which agreed to accept thirty thousand Syrian refugees according to the German quota, refuse to bring Christians in?”

Answer: They want to portray themselves as liberal, but in the meantime Christians are being killed. How is it possible to understand the world of today? People are playing a double-sided game: Even though I am like this inside, on the outside I need to look otherwise. This is a very interesting paradox, I will accept those who are murdering and those whom they are killing I will leave behind.

So we have nothing to be indignant about that among the Jews living in the Diaspora, the same thing happens. They are against Israel and in favor of the nation ceasing to exist, that the people of Israel would completely dissolve among the other peoples so no memory of them will remain.

It is believed that within just one or two generations American Jews simply “die,” i.e. become completely assimilated among Americans.

It is more accurate to say that specifically within one or two generations we will feel very serious blows in America and among the American Jews when the Creator will return them to their root with the help of a brutal force.

This will be revealed in the form of a holocaust or bigger problems. The Jews will begin to return to their roots because they will have nowhere to escape.

Those who reject Israel and are disconnected from it are decreeing upon themselves very great blows, and their return to the land will happen through an intractable power. This is mentioned in the Torah: “Even if your exiles are at the end of the heavens, the Lord, your God, will gather you from there, and He will take you from there.” (Deuteronomy 30:4).

Scandal Over The “Panama Papers”

laitman_263Question: Over eleven million confidential financial documents were leaked from a Panamanian legal firm. It turns out that through this firm businessmen, politicians, and billionaires evaded taxes. Among them were 72 past and present heads of government. Apparently six hundred Israeli companies and 850 Israelis were involved in these machinations. Do you think that they will be prosecuted?

Answer: I can’t imagine who would prosecute them! No matter what happens, the powerful people of this world, the bank managers and the heads of state, have closed major accounts that are officially registered under the names of their children and grandchildren, and nothing can be done about this. It is impossible to undermine them. They will put a few minor officials in their place who will be suddenly pushed aside and removed from their positions and they will take the money.

Comment: Still we have a president and a previous minister in Israel who are accused.

Answer: For the time being a full fusion of an oligarchy with the government in Israel has not occurred, in which one covers the other. And even if you are my political or economic adversary, we still have a private agreement that in these areas, I won’t interfere, and you won’t either. This hasn’t settled in Israel yet so within this country with lots of scandals this will gradually pass.

When I arrived in Israel 40 years ago, it wasn’t possible to consider giving someone a bribe. But in the past 40 years we have become like all the rest of the world. As a result, in part, it will lead the world to realize that we must get rid of our egoism, to rise above it. 60% or 70% of what we earn goes into a black case and disappears down some hole, which provides no benefit!

If all were revealed: how much humanity earns, how much is spent its benefit, and how much it causes harm, it would be found out that 90% are harmed!

Question: Does money have a spiritual root?

Answer: Money is a covering on desires. If I can work with my desire correctly, meaning that I use it for good deeds, then this desire is covered by a screen called “money” (Kesef), “yearning” (Kisuf). The “branch” of this characteristic in our world is money. Gold is a harmful metal, which symbolizes greed, a craving for profit, pure egoism. Gold is Malchut, (silver) money is Bina.

Question: Will this greed destroy humanity?

Answer: Eventually it will lead to the recognition of evil and humanity will need to get rid of it.

Question: Does this mean that the rulers of the world cannot be punished? Is there some kind of punishment for them?

Answer: There cannot be any punishment. We are working in a single egoistic system and the one in a high position, can do whatever he wants. Even if someone else were to stand in his place, it would be the same.

Question: Does this mean that there is no way out of this situation?

Answer: The only way out is through education, compulsory education for all executives.

Salafism And The Wisdom Of Kabbalah

laitman_626Opinion (welt.de): “Salafism [Jihadist-Salafism] is the greatest threat of our time, not deficiencies in our social or educational systems, but the missionaries of a bloodthirsty religion. If we let them, they will destroy our civilization.

“Failed integration – with this concept is explained the metamorphosis of disorientated youngsters to Islamic assassins. However, the much more fitting description is: successful disintegration. The lack of prospects of adolescents, the dreariness of dropouts or the feeling of the not belonging are not what make young people from Central Europe hunt dozens and hundreds of victims… .

“In truth, a number of Islamist killers in Europe were well integrated into society. One of the suicide bombers from Brussels studied electrical engineering. Then he turned to bomb making, wounded thousands of victims and destroyed life. …

“The terrorist pilots of September 11, 2001 in America were privileged men from rich Arab countries, lived with friends, drank alcohol at parties in Hamburg; before many thought these mass murderers had a boring social life.

“The man who cut the throat of the Dutch film director Theo van Gogh on an open street had been previously active as a municipal politician, and could not speak Arabic.”

My Comment: In modern society there is nothing that can replace the radical movement, filling life in this world, giving a prospect of eternal life, except for the dissemination of the wisdom of Kabbalah to wider circles of society. Kabbalah makes it possible to discover a bigger life here and now.

It requires individuals to make internal efforts, but with proper organization; the quality of effort is replaced by the quantity of participants. After all, we are talking about the masses and their work on the revelation of the upper world and the Creator.

It’s not time to disseminate the wisdom of Kabbalah widely and clearly, especially among radical Islamic circles, but soon this movement will fade and then it will be possible, even among them, to reveal the program of development of the world.

It could be that the dissemination of the idea of unity and love among all people will happen in Muslim society not as the dissemination of the ideas of the wisdom of Kabbalah but as the revival of Sufism (the Islamic version of Kabbalah).
