Comment: Famous chemist Fritz Haber was a Jew and a German patriot. It is believed he saved at least a billion people. When the world’s population increased as harvests began to decline, in 1909, he came up with a way to produce ammonia fertilizers from nitrogen and hydrogen. It was considered one of the greatest inventions of the 20th century dubbed “bread from air.”

War broke out (World War 1), and Haber wanting to prove his loyalty to Germany, experimented with and chlorine (mustard) gas that was first tested in Ypres in 1915. He watched as 3,000 to 5,000 French soldiers died an agonizing death right before his eyes. Soon after, his wife committed suicide from shame and his son committed suicide many years later.

In 1918, Fritz Haber received the Nobel Prize for his work on ammonia (fertlizers). Then he headed the institute where the Cyclone Bet gas was created. At a certain time, millions of people were poisoned with this gas in gas chambers in concentration camps. His relatives and loved ones were killed. In 1933, Hitler came to power, Fritz Haber was thrown out of his institute, and died a year later of a heart attack. Such was his fate.

How does the desire to feed the world and invent a suffocating gas coexist in a person?

My Response: I believe he didn’t think about the consequences of either. Simply, as a man of science, he was driven by the opportunity to create something effective. But for what, plus or minus, I think he did not realize.

Question: Can one live like this? Thousands are being destroyed before your eyes with your invention.

Answer: You can say this about anything. Einstein is also the father of the atomic bomb. What can you do?

Question: But he later renounced it.

Answer: To renounce it makes little difference. You can come to renounce anything, but they have already used it.

Comment: That’s interesting. Sakharov is the father of the hydrogen bomb, etc., and later they become generally righteous.

So, you believe a scientist is driven by discovery, a desire to create?

My Response: Of course, this is what interests him. He is not really aware of the consequences.

Comment: It is not too good to realize people have no principles they won’t cross, regardless what is done to them.

My Response: Not with a true scientist; they do not sense life at all.

Question: Is life a desire to create for them?

Answer: Yes. And what it gets used for does not interest them at the moment. That is, whoever takes on this scientist, will squeeze out all they want from him.

Question: Can we draw some conclusions from this for how not to fall under such an environment, not to take part in such inventions?

Answer: No, a scientist cannot. He has an inquisitive mind, his only interest is in discovering something new.

Question: But is this how one is led from above? Is it known in advance he will be like this?

Answer: Yes, of course, it is the upper governance.

Question: So you don’t condemn Fritz Haber in this case?

Answer: I don’t blame anyone at all. I can’t do anything about it because it is out of our hands.

Question: Everything has boomeranged back into his family. His wife committed suicide, his son committed suicide, his relatives were killed by the very gas he invented. Tell me, does a boomerang law exist or not?

Answer: In general, all the good and all the bad we do comes back to all of us and our loved ones, of course. And we have to somehow make a connection between these things. Maybe try to draw some conclusions for the future.

Question: So is there such a simple formula where the evil done returns to you in one form or another? Is there such a law?

Answer: Yes. That is, you have to constantly discern very carefully what you are doing, what you are engaged in, and where you are headed.

Question: Will my bad thoughts about others come back to me?

Answer: It is the same; they will surely come back to you.

Comment: If a person felt this, he could be more careful.

My Response: For this, he must be constantly on guard. Every person should restrain himself and control his thoughts, desires, and intentions in general.

Question: Is it right to restrain yourself? Meaning, one says to himself: “This is a bad thing, I’m not going there.” Like this?

Answer: Yes, even in thoughts.

Question: Even in thoughts? But it is very difficult.

Answer: We call it intention.

Comment: But I’m not free in my thoughts.

My Response: It doesn’t matter. What is sent to you, you are not free in. But what you do with it is your choice.

Question: The third question is patriotism. What kind of disease is it when one is capable of doing anything, that is, he can give himself completely? Even more so than in any other area.

Answer: He sets himself a goal that he can justify and be proud of.

Comment: This is my motherland. I am ready to kill for it, do anything, etc.

My Response: Indeed. All this is found in the worst atrocities by the way. Look what Hitler wrote.

Question: Is it a disease or is it in each of us?

Answer: In every person.

Question: So you can even pull it out of and facilitate it in a person? And push him to the most terrible things?

Answer: Undoubtedly.

Question: So this patriotism was revealed in people who did not expect to be capable of this?

Answer: Sure. We see it directly in their notes, works, letters.

Question: When artificial intelligence is created, it is trained on trillions of parameters, literally on everything that humanity has created during its short existence by cosmic standards. There are no other options. But everything created by people did not really work for their benefit. Then how can the correct information be uploaded; how can we educate it correctly and give correct examples? Where can we take them from if the entire set of examples that exists in the human world is negative?

Answer: We do nоt care if the results are positive or negative. The main thing for us is that we can agree that they are like this. That is, on all the examples that are given to humanity, I can learn both good and bad.

But, in principle, we are talking about the fulfillment of two conditions. The first condition is to act for the benefit of all mankind, second is to not cause irreparable harm to nature.

Therefore, everything that is loaded into a person is evaluated only based on these two principles, and on this basis, a conclusion is made whether to use this example or not.

Comment: When you started teaching, you taught your students pure Kabbalah without any examples. But in recent years, it seems like you have moved in a direction that is pro-political.

My Response: No, it has nothing to do with politics. To me talking to socialists, liberals, democrats, or anyone else is all the same. These are little human toys.

I tell them how they should use the current state of nature, which they are completely powerless against and do not understand, and that they must acquire a completely different approach to life in this world. What difference does it make to me who they are? It is not politics. Politics is if I stand between them. But I do not get involved in that!

Maybe it looks that way because people are used to calling anyone who talks about the state of the world and society a politician.

But I am definitely not a politician. To me, they are all absolutely the same! Lost sheep who have always acted according to their egoism. And today, they are not able to govern our world because another additional force has emerged in the world—the altruistic force. So, something must be done. So I explain to them how.

I simply talk about what I see in the world without leaning toward one side or another or a third. Absolutely! Because no one will solve anything in this anyway. The solution can only come through correcting our attitude toward the world, toward nature.

Question: The Japanese art of Kintsugi means golden joinery. It is the restoration of ceramic vessels using adhesive sap of the lacquer tree. Masters repair a broken jar and glue it together. Moreover, they do not just glue, but reveal cracks with gold paint, thereby showing the need for gluing.

Is it important to be able to glue things together?

Answer: In general, yes. If you know exactly their future purpose and evaluate them correctly, then gluing is a great correction.

Question: In Kabbalah we study the process of shattering and the need for correction through connection. Now we live in a society in which people practically do not fix anything: they buy something, use it, and throw it away. How important is it to be able to fix things, fix relationships, and fix lives?

Answer: I think, it is necessary. Man is a creature that doubts all the time, makes mistakes, and is willing to perform more and more new actions. Therefore, he must understand that besides the fact that good impulses are destined for us, we must be aware of them, check them, and try to correct them.

Question: Why glue at all? After all, you can find something new, some new vessel, a new occupation, a new thing.

Answer: No, there are things that are very dear to us, and we want them to be preserved. We want to deal with restored old things. Then the corrected thing becomes even more precious than something new or whole.

We see the same thing in our history, in nature, and in technology. Many things in nature break, and we glue them together, connect them, and give them new meaning, a new life. They serve us, and we love them despite the fact that they could have disappeared long ago, having served their time.

If I am engaged with a person and society, if I am talking about how society should change, and how a person should change, then of course I can always be attributed to politics.

In the end, I’m not acting with political tools, but only educational ones.

People go out into the street to demand some political or social changes from the government, and we went out into the street to give them pamphlets saying that the only thing that will help them is if each of them changes themselves.

I tell a person: “You have to change your attitude toward others and not demand something from the government. It is not able to do anything, and you can’t put pressure on it. In the end, nothing good will come from it. Look at what is happening all over the world! The only thing that will help is that here I’m giving you objective natural laws, which say you have to change yourself.”

If I address everyone personally and talk about how to change oneself, is this a political statement?

We exist in a world of objective laws. These laws show us where today’s confusion comes from, and how we can find ourselves in the current world, to do something with ourselves, with society, and with our family, in order to continue to give birth, develop, and live.

I’m talking about facts! Let’s say I’m just explaining the law of free fall and how we can apply it in our lives, or the law of the dependence of speed on time and distance and how it can be used. I explain everything on my fingers and show everything in action.

I attract scientists who tell me that our world is truly global, mutual, and completely interdependent. At present, there are laws in it that did not exist before, and our failure to accept these laws is called a crisis. But this is our crisis, our lack of understanding and our inability to adapt to this world.

So we need to adapt to it and then there will be no crisis, but instead a wonderful, broad development.

As long as you cannot interact with this new, global and integral world, you are in crisis. This is not an external crisis; this is your internal, conceptual crisis.

Comment: Sometimes I look at you and get the impression that you are already tired of making constant appeals to humanity to follow the good path.

My Response: I do not see an end to it. I see that only good blows will turn us into the right people.

Sometimes they are internal, sometimes external, no matter what kind, the main thing is that they have an effect. If internal blows do not help, then external ones come into play. And so gradually a person grows.

Question: No one can escape from this?

Answer: This is a natural process. But there are desirable and undesirable forms in it. There are two parallel paths: the path of light, when you call it upon yourself demanding for it to change you, and the path of suffering when you are driven forward with a “stick to happiness” like a naughty child until you become smarter and start asking to be changed yourself.

But how much time passes before these blows change a person?

Question: How, by changing oneself, can a person studying Kabbalah change his attitude toward others or toward the events that happen to him?

Answer: Only by learning integrality and complete interconnection above all contradictions. Leave all the contradictions below and try to connect above them. Drop everything else! Otherwise, we become more and more opposed to nature, and nature will rain blows on us. That is all. This is the easiest solution. Nothing else.

Therefore, it is our common global integral connection, that we need to discuss and implement. Above everything! We should solve our problems at a round table, like in a family, figuring out how to unite in the most kind way, mutually participating in everything.

At the same time, each of us has a huge number of claims against everyone, and we leave them all below, as in a family, and solve our common problem above them, otherwise, we will not survive.

The laws of nature are immutable. There is nothing in them to make nature take pity on us. This is a rigid law. If you are similar to it—good, if not—you receive negative effects. That is, you set yourself up with respect to this system, which is clearly determined and goes forward in this way.

Comment: There are two options for solving problems. Either a person decides something on the material level through some kind of connection or something else. Or, by changing himself internally, he changes the unfavorable situations that haunt him.

My Response: We will have to come to an inner change. Today we already see how much we cannot influence the world, how much nothing helps us, and we are floating somewhere like slivers in a whirlpool.

All mankind, people, nations, and countries are carried away somewhere by a single stream that twists and turns us, and we are not able to do anything.

This is the feeling that is evident now. And this will lead us to the fact that we will really begin to relate to the world correctly.

Humanity is at the point where nature is shaking us. And it will rattle us with wars, hurricanes, earthquakes, terror, anything possible, more and more. Humanity will eat itself up until the remaining small fraction of people rise to the next degree. But if everyone would want to rise voluntarily, here is a methodology for you. There is no other way.

But this is the law of nature at all degrees! It acts even on the corporeal level. This is how nature works! How does inanimate matter turn into vegetative, vegetative into animate, and animate matter (that is, today’s people) move to the next degree? We just do not want to turn on our brains and see how much logic there is in this.

There is nothing else! We cannot do it any other way! What is the most important law of evolution? When each stage fulfills itself, considers itself unnecessary, and accepts its next state as desirable although it is the opposite of it. Everything happens according to the law of “negation of negation.”

Comment: Alexander writes: “You say that over time all evil will disappear. Then why has it not disappeared to this day? Many generations have changed over thousands of years; we should have been reborn into better people, but the evil has only increased. Somehow your formula does not work.”

My Response: My formula can work only when we try all the possible outcomes, that is, when we make sure that nothing works! Nothing.

Then we will understand that we have no solution except to just treat each other as relatives. Not as our relatives today, since it is also egoistic when we think of them, but our relatives as ourselves, “love your neighbor as yourself.”

Question: Does this mean that over time all evil will disappear?

Answer: Yes.

Question: Should we just poke in all directions that we can?

Answer: Absolutely!

Question: Why can we not be given even some tiny hole to get through?

Answer: We would run into some kind of Leninism again.

Question: Will nothing happen until we go through all the roads and all the paths and run into a dead end everywhere?

Answer: In general, yes. Such is our egoism. It must make sure that there is no other way but love for the other.

Question: Is this kind of work on wear and tear here?

Answer: This is what love means—”love your neighbor as yourself.” When I have tried everything, and only this gate is open.

Question: How will I come to this formula? You are now saying, “Love your neighbor as yourself,” but let’s say I cannot hear you. How do I come to the conclusion that this is the gate that I need to enter?

Answer: You will see this gate before your nose and realize that there can be no other gate! There is nothing besides this gate, just emptiness.

Question: Is this what is written by the great Kabbalists, that you go and there is no gate? You walk along the wall, and there is no gate. And suddenly at some point, when you are exhausted, you suddenly see the gate. And it turns out that it always was there.

Answer: Yes.

Question: And I did not see it?

Answer: No.

Question: What did I need in order to see it? It was always there, it just was!

Answer: There was not enough disappointment.

Question: Should I be disappointed in everything?

Answer: Absolutely. In everything! So that only one thing remains—adhesion, brotherhood. We do not know what it is. We all use some kinds of substitutes and surrogates. But then we will feel it.

Question: Can you at least give a hint? It is clear that if we do not feel, we will not be able to hear you. But what do you mean by brotherhood?

Answer: Brotherhood is when we are all in the same desire, intention, and in complete adhesion and connection, unity everyone with everyone. We return again to the system called Adam as one person in one body, in one heart. This is the correct future.

It should be before us! This is how this future should stand before me as an obvious, achievable, and necessary state.

Comment: You have just depicted what we must come to after all the wanderings and disappointments.

My Response: That is why they are needed, to come to such a state.

Question: Isn’t that idealism?

Answer: This is not idealism, it is precisely the system of self-education.

Question: But am I inside this system?

Answer: I am inside this system, but I need to find my identification with it, meaning that I should be in it, participate in every aspect of it, and I want it to become reality.

Question: Are we, in principle, still inside this system, broken, scattered, searching, and suffering?

Answer: But we have to agree with it. We need to want it to be manifested, and not remain in this fog, in the form of a negative, as it is today.

Question: So, are we required to manifest this?

Answer: Yes.
