The war between Ukraine and Russia resulted in a serious energy crisis in many European countries. Europe has already implemented energy saving like washing hands in cold water and taking shorter showers, but the main problem will be with heating in the winter.

How can it be that in the 21^st century, in 2022, in the most developed countries, in wealthy Western Europe people would suffer from cold? How did we get to this?

The fact is that Europeans have accustomed themselves to a warm and cozy life. They are not concerned with where the heat comes from. So now they are beginning to understand what a big problem this is because Europe is not the tropics, it has a cold climate.

They did not think about developing advanced technologies for energy carriers since they bought cheap gas from Russia. Energy is the basis of life. People have invented a lot of smart devices, but they all need energy. If there is no energy, it is a problem. Energy cannot be replaced, it is the basis of life.

There is an infinite source of energy in nature itself. It is in the air, but we humans do not know how to extract it from there. We are unable to exist on the same wavelength as the energy that exists all around us. There were interesting studies on such energy that Elon Musk conducted in order to use it for his Tesla electric car.

We can receive energy from nature directly, without any energy carriers, without converting it from one form to another. And humanity will be able to do this provided it moves in the direction of equality. Otherwise, we will not be able to discover this energy because nature runs according to the law of similarity of form.

We must be in similitude with each other and with nature so there would be no barriers between us and nature. This way, we will be able to receive energy from nature without limits. Nature can give us energy without limit if there are no restrictions and partitions between us.

Comment: We know that empathy is the ability to feel the world of another as our own. We are literally capable of feeling someone else’s pain. Psychologists claim that if we experience empathic pain for a long time, we often become emotionally exhausted.

This happens to firefighters, those who work in emergency services, etc. They say through empathy we come to feel the pain of someone else. However, we also feel the pain of someone else through compassion, but in that case, we can handle it. That is because compassion comes with love. That’s the whole difference between the two.

My Response: Correct.

Comment: The official definition of empathy is the ability to identify with the emotions of another, but compassion is defined as sympathy for the suffering of another.

My Response: It is like stepping into the world of another and feeling his experience.

Question: How can we facilitate this within ourselves? As I understand if that feeling was fostered, we would live as though in a different world.

Answer: Yes, we would nurture it. I think that it is possible. We are just not involved in this process. Generally, people at the age of 13 – 14 can fully resonate with another person’s suffering. And they would then need to be further educated on it.

Comment: That, of course, would drastically change the world.

My Response: Of course, no doubt about it.

Question: So, is it possible to nurture compassion in a person?

Answer: The understanding of compassion for others can be taught so a person may understand how to handle it. So much so that through this compassion for another, he may share another’s suffering by taking it partially upon himself and in this way neutralize their suffering.

The fact that you neutralize it by engaging with him, sympathizing, and being compassionate, you gradually break up his suffering into a number of smaller parts and by doing so, bring him relief. Similarly, you can bring the whole world into balance and to an inner-state-of-being you can call blissfulness.

Question: So, shared compassion among all the people on earth will lead to a state of blissfulness in the world?

Answer: Yes. That’s exactly what we have to achieve in our connection. Otherwise, we have some very serious problems ahead of us. This is because the ego continues to grow and the upper light is revealed in relation to the ego even more. Meaning, we are going to feel greater pressure in relation to our ego such that if we don’t find a way to unite and share all of that among ourselves, we won’t be able to tolerate it.

Question: Is compassion essentially the basis of what you mention all the time: unity, connection, positive thoughts, and good connections?

Answer: Yes. Practically speaking, it’s not even compassion. It is the division of all the huge suffering, the opposites of a huge desire and a huge light that should fill this desire, and the absence of an intention “not for yourself” that allows you to fill the desire with light.

Question: So it can only be filled if my intention is for the sake of others?

Answer: Yes. This is why we need this balance here. All this can only be realized if we learn to be compassionate, to divide the difference between absolute fulfillment and absolute emptiness amongst every person.

Obviously, nobody will be worse off in this case. But if we want to divide it this way, the difference itself will disappear. That is the whole point of this remarkable quality of unification.

Question: And at this point, is it correct to say that the state of blissfulness will come?

Answer: Yes. Then this feeling of the contradiction, impossibility, and an inner cry turns into a quenching, into something beyond corporeal, into pleasure. At that point, there is no difference between great pain and great pleasure. There they connect.

Question: And what does the pain become in this case?

Answer: Pleasure, because you have balanced them out.

Question: That is very elevated.

Answer: That’s how it works at a higher level.

Question: Is the pain given to us to turn it into pleasure?

Answer: Yes, of course.

Question: And the greatest pain, as a result, turns out to be the greatest pleasure?

Answer: Yes. If you know how to balance these opposites, you get pleasure.

Question: America has built an image of the American Dream through propaganda. At some point it was revealed that their authorities were listening to their own citizens, which was followed by a lot of  scandals. This gives an example of how much you can build a system of brainwashing, but in the egoistic sphere.

Can it ever be the other way around that a person is told about the importance of opposite systems, of bestowal, which Kabbalists are trying to convey to the world? Is it possible to build such a system?

Answer: Of course, it is not only possible, but also necessary. This is a system of integral education.

But I think that this system will be built not from the top down, but rather from the bottom up when people receive information about us in an accessible and correct form suitable to them through the Internet and through television channels, in the form of series, engaging games, and so on. This will educate them. They will participate in workshops, groups, and roundtables.

Otherwise it is impossible to reach millions and even billions of people. First it will go to the people with the lowest income level, from the middle class and below, and then higher. We will have to do this.

Comment: But the Americans have built a system in which people have no choice. They are just brainwashing them.

My Response: It’s already falling. The people are changing. We are evolving; we are changing. Today we are reaching a level when this system is breaking down. Therefore problems arise. And at the same time, other systems of human society are failing: economic, political, social, cultural, and familial.

Therefore, the American propaganda of their way of life: “we,” “we,” “we”—stops working. A person from the inside has other demands that Hollywood will not satisfy.

Question: Is there a supreme plan for changing the world?

Answer: Of course. The world and all of nature are striving for ever greater balance.

Question: And where is it recorded? Is there a plan? Is there some kind of information space or something like that?

Answer: Frankly speaking, I have not seen such a plan. But nature strives for balance. This is clear to us from everything that is happening.

Question: So we can’t look at this plan, but we see from our experience that apparently this is so?

Answer: Yes. In general, despite the alleged disorder, chaos, eruptions, and so on, at the same time there is some more even distribution of all parameters: the equation of temperatures, pressures, and everything else.

Question: Is the ability to see some kind of ordering in chaos and the desire for balance useful to a person? Do I need to constantly look for such an approach?

Answer: I think that in principle we can determine this from our observations. After all, for the last couple of thousand years we have been constantly observing the surrounding nature and trying to deduce some laws.

All these laws say that nature tends to a straight-line, even movement, toward rest. That is, we have come to certain conclusions. Moreover, they are based on very long and serious observations over the centuries.

Comment: I have heard of such cases when a person seems to be terminally ill, doctors predict that he has very little time left to live, and somehow suddenly he is cured.

My Response: Firstly, it depends on the person. Secondly, with respect to medicine, there is nothing to talk about at all. Health care workers themselves do not understand how pharmacologists fool them. They shove all sorts of nonsense in front of them, and they already work according to this nonsense, just as economists do not understand what they are supposedly given in the economic theories they nonetheless work according to.

Both are absolute lies. The same economy and the same medicine, but with completely different drugs, different attitudes, different data, and facts about all diseases! And all this fanaticism is just for the sake of business. Only just! Otherwise, there would be no additional billions for those who already have a lot of them.

Anyway, my words will not help anyone. This will be revealed gradually in the future. People should reveal evil to the extent that they can cope with, realize, understand, and accept it. If not, it will only bring them completely useless suffering.

The development of humanity leads to the growth of egoism,  individualism, and the desire to gain as much as possible at the expense of others. At the same time, the modern world strives for integration, and therefore, whether we want it or not, we must move toward connection and mutual integration between everybody.

But we do not do this and a sort of scissors is formed. On one hand the world is moving toward technological and economic development, and on the other hand, there is no corresponding social development. It turns out that we ourselves produce all the problems that arise in modern society.

This discrepancy leads to crises, conflicts, and wars that carry the danger of escalating into global world war. Therefore, we must recognize our nature and how egoistic the direction of its development is. Instead, we do not care about correcting it and we treat each other worse and worse. We cannot stop and cease our constant quarreling, competing, and even fighting.

Therefore, it is not surprising that we fail to improve our lives. After all, we do not correct humanity, we do not give children the proper education and understanding of what kind of society and world they live in and in what direction they should develop.

We completely neglect the development of human society year after year and invest only in the development of technology, in mobile phones and computers. But it is just a shame to see what kind of information we fill these modern means of communication with and how degraded we are.

We are able to create microprocessors that already operate at frequencies of several gigahertz that provide our connection.

But at the same time, our separation is growing in direct proportion.

How can we expect that with such ”advancement” our world will come to a good life? With all the power achieved in economics and finance, our entire tomorrow, our entire future existence, is in question. This only shows how weak we are, how much we do not understand what means we have in our hands, and how we could improve the world if we established a connection between us. This is our only problem.

It is necessary to change the system of education in order to change the nature of a person so that he does not reach only for material acquisitions, but sees a great advantage in bringing people closer together and together building a correct, more merciful and kind society. At present, we are not building such a society and we are not teaching this to our children.

Question: The speed of change in the world is constantly increasing. This is visible to the naked eye. Changes have a huge number of different manifestations: evolution and revolution, deterioration and improvement, progress and stagnation, acceleration and deceleration. Who or what is changing the world?

Answer: Evolution.

Question: Darwin said that evolution is a process. What is its cause?

Answer: The process itself is the cause.

Comment: But this is not entirely clear to an ordinary inhabitant of our planet. A person has been placed into a certain process that is at the same time cause, effect, and manifestation, and is spinning in this “washing machine.”

My Response: That is correct. The fact is that there is a cause and a purpose for the development of everything that happens. Therefore, there is movement between cause and effect. This movement we call process, life, evolution.

And toward what purpose this movement is directed, we do not know. We only know that we are moving toward greater development: toward disorder or vice versa toward a certain order. Here, we have a lot of problems.

According to the wisdom of Kabbalah, we are moving from the initial impulse in which our entire nature of creation was set, toward absolute balance, which we must reach voluntarily or involuntarily within a certain time frame.

How should people change so that there will be no more wars? First of all they must see that wars cannot bring any solution. They also need to receive a clear explanation that the program and purpose of creation, the structure of the world, and the force of nature that dominates the world are all against wars.

Although the Creator created this entire world of opposing forces, He did it precisely in order for all these opposing forces to complete each other. Although there are two forces—connection and distancing, minus and plus—if they work together on their difference of potentials, they will be able to receive all the upper force and it will be clearly revealed in them.

It would be as if all the energy of the existing nuclear bombs, all the stars, and the entire universe had been added together and could be used for the benefit of humanity. Great opportunities open when all the good and evil forces connect with each other through the resistance to their will to receive and through their connection in the will to bestow.

We can create a true “plus” and “minus” in the connection between us and thereby rise to the height of the end of correction. It is impossible to imagine such power when all the stars, all the worlds, and all the forces in the upper realm, everything will work only in one direction, in order to give us the strength and energy to understand, recognize and control a great will to receive.

All the desires of a person remain, both positive and negative, but they all receive a positive form when he can control his will to receive to such an extent that he will want to serve others. And everyone will act in this way. Then everyone will connect to the system, like the elements of a radio circuit, each of which works in its own way and in its own direction, but all together they perform a common task, which results in the radio playing.

We need to find forms of connection like this, where everyone can bestow to others. Although each has his own character and his own form of work, which may be opposite to the others (like in a capacitor, inductor, resistor, or transistor), but all are connected into one circuit. This is how we organize systems in society that work together.

Society should be built in such a way that, despite their difference from others, each one can find their place in the common system and participate in it together with everyone else. This is how it will be in the end. This last war has shown us a lack of communication between people and the need to achieve some kind of completion. Very strong differences between two close nations have been revealed and these differences show us where we are and what we need to work on.

Question: All the time you say that the world has become one and that we need to understand this. Should there be a national, racial, or state identity? Or, since the world is one, should all this be brought to a single equivalent?

Now history is constantly being rewritten for the sake of the leaders and national pride, Columbus is deemed a racist, Churchill as a colonialist, and their monuments are being demolished, books of great writers are being burned, and operas are banned. The world does not want to unite.

What can be the equivalent for everyone?

Answer: In general, there is no need to choose from all these thinkers, writers, etc, the best or worst people who were for or against some people or association.

I personally am not in favor of connecting all these things. But this is how it turns out in accordance with our egoism; if someone is against me, then I do not like him at all, none of his qualities.

History is always being rewritten. Man does not want to have history at all. He wants to do everything so that at every moment of his existence, it would meet his views. This is why all of it is flexible and dynamic.

Question: So, do you think that there is no objective history?

Answer: No, it cannot be! This is absolutely so; there is nothing to talk about!

Question: Is it necessary to understand this?

Answer: No! We, the Kabbalists say: “You are paddling in the wrong direction, friends.” You will come to nothing. You will sail to the opposite of where nature directs us.

Question: Where do we need to go?

Answer: To the connection between us without remembering or disturbing any historical foundations. We will not be able to sort them out anyway, and we do not need to! It does not matter.

The only thing that matters is, as it is said: “Love will cover all crimes.” We must connect together above everything. Then we come to the state of a one single image of man—Adam. He is one, consisting of all: black, white, yellow, red, all nationalities, and everything there can be. This is the person whom nature or the Creator gave birth to. This is what we need.

Question: Does it mean that even this sentence “Love will cover all crimes” can become the equivalent? Can it be taken as a flag, as a banner?

Answer: Yes.

Comment: Instead of pulling all these “skeletons” out of closets, releasing spirits, and all this…

My Response: We should go straight! Without hiding anything, we do not close our eyes. The past is not important to us! We must look forward and not backward.

Question: Do we say that yes, we are different, we are not alike, we hate each other?

Answer: Of course! This is what we have to work on: “Love will cover all crimes.”

Question: Are crimes our hatred of each other?

Answer: Yes, all our mutual complaints.

Question: You, as a Kabbalist, as a realist, please tell me, will we come to this?

Answer: In fact, we will definitely come to this because it is written, and this final state already exists. The problem is how much we have to go through. This is the only thing. The Creator has time. So what if it takes another couple of thousand years.

Question: Is our entire task in acceleration? By and large.

Answer: Of course. Why should we mess with all these cases? What will it give us? After all, it was the Creator who confused us specifically so that when we strive for unification, in this yearning we will begin to reveal why such opposite qualities are inherent in us, which, in principle, cannot be brought together in any way. And suddenly, the puzzle is coming together!

Precisely this is what gives us great pleasure and admiration to the wisdom of nature, of the Creator.

Question: What do you mean by the concept of raising a new person?

Answer: Raising a new person is the most important thing, it is so that he understands that humanness and connection are the most important things. And according to the scope of our connection, we can judge the development of society.

Comment: We are not talking about one nation or one state here.

My Response: No, we are talking about global connection. But here we must take into account that if you are talking about Finns, then you are accepting the whole nation there. And if you take America, you can’t expect them to be the same as the Finns. And that’s why there’s such a rift between them all. But still, according to the level of communication that exists in society, as long as the level of communication exceeds the differences in society, they are ahead.

Question: Is the single main principle the level of connection?

Answer: Yes. We have to create an even society where there are no big, small, stupid or smart—none. As much as you have earned is yours, be the biggest, the richest, whatever you want, but your hands did it and your head, and therefore in principle, no one will make claims against you.

Therefore Americans more or less agree that they have inequality because this inequality depends on them. No one dictates to another in any way.

Question: Is it a good principle, “do yourself by yourself”?

Answer: Of course. A person should study; he invests in society and wants to be respected. He proves to everyone that he is essential, needed, suitable, and so on.

And therefore when they create some mechanism or device, or make scientific discoveries, and so on, all this is then reflected in the result. That is, the level of connections determines everything.
