QIn the News (BBC): “The ‘mountain’ of waste electronic and electrical equipment discarded in 2021 will weigh more than 57 million tonnes, researchers have estimated.

Question: So many gadgets are thrown away. People will not give up gadgets, electronics, or anything. Where does it all go when it is thrown away?

Answer: I believe that a person who buys something new is obliged to bring the old one and take it to the same store for recycling. It is necessary to organize everything in this way. You can’t buy any new product without returning the old one.

Question: Otherwise they should not sell me anything else?

Answer: Yes. They don’t have the right; they have to get the old one first.

Comment: Once you said something fantastic, that if a person changes his thoughts, then all this will not need to be done; it will disappear by itself. People perceive it as fiction.

My Response: No, the fact is that if we were spiritually close to each other, we wouldn’t need these gadgets. Why do we need to talk or correspond so much? It’s all in the air. We would just feel and understand it, and we wouldn’t have to write. Why should I write things that are already absolutely clear and understandable to everyone?

And so we clog up the ether, we clog up the earth, we clog up everything. All this is “hanging in the air,” as they say. All information.

This is even more than gadgets. What is happening in the air now? It’s all being recorded. There is an organization, each country has its own, which records on one huge disc, as on a CD, everything that is in the air. Absolutely everything! And when you need to get something, it is read at a certain frequency. And there you can hear your frequency, my frequency, his frequency.

And that’s how our conversations are pulled out and listened to when necessary. And when not, the record is deposited and a new record is recorded, for example, a new one every day.

Question: Are you making up some kind of scenario or are you talking about reality?

Answer: I’m talking about something that exists. Imagine a disk on which absolutely all the noises in the air and passing through all networks are recorded. And they are all recorded on this record. It’s a terrible noise, there’s nothing in it. But when you then read it with a certain filter tuned to a certain frequency—for example the frequency of your gadget—then you can hear what you were saying there.

Question: So there are no secrets? All phone conversations, all recordings?

Answer: There is no question about it at all. Who cares about secrets today?

Comment: We started with the environmental problem of gadgets, and now we are approaching the crazy problem of pollution of the entire ether.

My Response: This is a very big problem!

Question: What is scarier?

Answer: The ether is scarier, but we don’t know much about it.

Question: In what case will we get rid of these gadgets, these records, such thoughts?

Answer: When we have a good relations between us, a good connection between us, when we will not hide anything from each other and it will be clear between us without words how we treat each other.

A baby, when he is in his mothers womb does not need any gadgets. And when he comes out there is already a language, some gestures. But in principle, this is all a pitiful semblance of an internal connection between them. It’s the same with us.

We must gradually strive for an inner connection between us, and then we go to a completely different level of interaction and do not clog up any ether; rather we lift everything only to the area where there is only one upper light.

Question: So we become such an embryo of the upper light?

Answer: Yes. We exist in it now.

Question: Our task is to realize this?

Answer: Yes. And to abandon these primitive devices of ours, these means of communication, and so on.

Remark: And then a miracle will happen?

Answer: Yes.

Comment: I read an article “Forward to the past or how to stop negative evolution” [in Russian] where they wrote that degradation has been going on for decades. Food is getting worse. Incomes and the standard of living of the middle class are falling. Security, education, medicine, human rights, and social protection are being destroyed. The institution of the family is in decline, the birth rate is falling. Culture, art, fashion, cinema, everything is in decline. Legislation is being rewritten in favor of the rich and powerful. Theft is flourishing, we need to provide for ourselves, for our children, as the future is dark. A sharp left turn to improve the lives of citizens will provoke turmoil for years, and right-wing conservatism is not much better.

I read no conclusions it is just full of this is bad and that is bad. That’s what today’s time is like.

My Response: I think if electricity were switched off, then everything would be fine. Everything would go out, subside, machinery would stop. And that’s it.

Question: What would this blackout mean?

Answer: It is energy, any type of energy that feeds our egoism in all its egoistic manifestations in this world, energy of combustion, electrical energy, energy of movement , we use all this to our detriment. We need to go back 120 years and realize how we to create the world anew.

Question: So we have to understand why we would be given electricity? Not to steal progressively and earn money, but for something else? What for?

Answer: Just to restore the right connection between us. And to this extent we can use all the energy.

Question: Why do I turn on the lights, turn on machinery, and drive cars?

Answer: Only in order to transmit goodness to the world. I need energy for everything kind and useful I can do for the world, connection with others. And if I can’t do it clearly, if I don’t know how, then I don’t need energy. Don’t let me, don’t allow me to come in contact with other people at all.

See what is going on with the Internet! This is terrible! How much hatred there is! As soon as we turn on the energy, electricity, all the evil rushes out.

Question: Should a person translate the word “good” in different ways or in one common context?

Answer: For the benefit of others.

Question: What is the benefit of others?

Answer: The benefit is that they should also think about the benefits for others.

Question: And then what is the general benefit?

Answer: We should all be wrapped up in common concern for the benefit of others. That’s it.

Question: Is that why we need to turn on the light?

Answer: Yes.

Question: A lot of people write to us that it is practically impossible for a person to survive on today’s pension. They try their best, but it’s very hard. Now few people believe the government. They try to put aside something and save up. Thoughts about retirement frighten everyone approaching this age and today even the young ones.

Thoughts of what if I can’t make it and many thoughts surrounding it pervade people.  What kind of thinking should there be in order for a person not to fall into depression, into constant stress? What kind of thought should a person cultivate in himself?

Answer: He must still imagine how little he needs in order to exist, and try to prepare himself for such an existence. So that he could feed himself in this way. And everything else, of course, he must prepare in advance, the place to live and so on.

Question: So, one way or another, think about it in advance?

Answer: Sure.

Question: Let’s say I prepared this for myself. And how to prepare internally?

Answer: It is the same internally, to come to joy that I don’t need anything more.

Question: Is this called “rising above the situation”?

Answer: Yes.

Question: And how to come to joy?

Answer: From the fact that I don’t depend on anyone, I don’t depend on anything, I can feel like an absolutely free person. Mostly in spirit. That’s it!

Question: Can I communicate at this moment, as you say, with nature, with the Creator?

Answer: Of course! Especially in this state.

Question: What should my prayer be?

Answer: I turn to the Creator as the only upper force of nature, apart from which there is nothing, and I want to be in mutual, good relations with the Creator. It’s very simple.

Question: And this will come back to the person?

Answer: Sure. Depending on how I relay to Him, I will immediately feel that He is relating to me.

Question: Can it be taken as an exercise to train the spirit like this?

Answer: Yes.

Comment: So you said: “I’m free, I don’t depend on anyone.”

My Response: I have my own place and what I need minimally. And I’m satisfied with that! I think it’s realistic. It is only necessary to give a person an entrance to this inner freedom.

Comment: This is the most important moment. A person constantly is not free.

My Response: Because he makes himself dependent on this world. And he must break away from it and be internally free. It is very important.

Question: And can someone break away?

Answer: Imagine that you are really independent of anything and anyone. This is the way to your own inner freedom, absolute freedom! And to me, from this moment onward, it doesn’t matter what happens. Then I begin to feel completely independent from anything and from anyone. And no matter what happens, I am already in a state of complete disconnection from this world, its limitations and its fears. There is nothing, that’s it!

Question: Is this called that I connect to nature, to the Creator?

Answer: Yes. You gradually restrict your egoism and connect to nature or the Creator, which is the same thing.

Comment: Insects are no longer considered exotic food. Also food is getting more expensive now; everything is getting more expensive. Insects are considered an excellent source of protein without allergens or toxins. It is even said that protein supplements from insects are more beneficial for the body than meat.

I heard that producing one kilogram of protein from insects requires 500 times less water than producing one kilogram of protein from beef. There is a lot of such interesting data. About two billion people worldwide already include insects in their diets without any particular consequences.

To be honest, if I imagine eating a beetle, it is unappealing.

Answer: No, not just one beetle, you eat hundreds of beetles. They are ground up and well processed. And you are eating them in one form or another.

Question: So you think that one way or another we are getting closer to eating locusts and such?

Answer: There is no problem eating locusts at all. Locusts are kosher.

Question: So, Jews that keep kosher can eat locusts?

Answer: Of course!

Question: Man can eat anything, really. Even if he is disgusted by it, he can still consume it. Why?

Answer: Man is built like an animal. Therefore, he can eat all various protein compounds.

Question: What do you think we will be consuming, anyway? Let’s say humanity keeps growing. What are we going to eat?

Answer: There is no problem in the world regarding raising cows, steer, chickens, or anything else. No problem! It all depends on our desire, on our consent, on the level of society that we are building.

Question: And the fact that prices are rising and it is becoming less affordable? And hunger?

Answer: It is all a game.

Question: Whose game is it? Who is playing?

Answer: People are playing it.

Question: A third of the population is probably starving?

Answer: Probably, yes. Because people have an interest in it.

Question: So that some part starves? Why?

Answer: All this is being done, I would say, from above so that people would realize how vicious a society they live in is. What vicious qualities and relationships they live in.

I hope that we do realize the lowliness, the inferiority of those people who live today, including us, and that we will help each other rise a little. Then we can discuss whether we should catch bugs and eat them or not.

It is not about what we are going to eat. The question is “What will we be like?”

Question: And if we were, as you desire, corrected, kind to each other, then what?

Answer: Then we will transition to another state.

Question: But will we need to eat something?

Answer: No. We will not need anything. We will exist in a completely different reality, not this imaginary one, but a different, upper reality.

Question: What will sustain us?

Answer: The upper light. This is the real sustenance. Not some surrogates of our world.

Question: Then what is light?

Answer: The universal filling of everyone and everything.

Question: And one does not need anything else?

Answer: Nothing. That is how we are made.

Humanity’s Major Problem

In the News (apa.az): “The WHO believes that humanity has passed almost 60% of the way in the fight against COVID-19.

“Chief researcher of the organization Soumya Swaminathan, said that it is premature to predict the timing of the end of the pandemic, APA reports quoting freenews,

“Humanity will soon pass 60% of the way in the fight against COVID-19. However, unexpected obstacles may still be ahead, so it is premature to predict the timing of the end of the pandemic.”

Answer: We have not entered this path! In our attitude to our condition, to the pandemic, we have not entered it yet.

Question: So you consider that the beginning of the path is if we at least gradually approach the root?

Answer: The beginning of realization of the source of our problem, for example, the pandemic, and other problems, lies in us generally treating nature incorrectly, absolutely negatively.

We must realize that otherwise nature, which is the Creator, cannot push us to His goal except in this way.

Question: Through viruses?

Answer: Yes. Such terrible, ugly creatures like us can’t be pushed otherwise.

Question: So you are saying that we haven’t even entered this marathon yet?

Answer: No, of course not. We do not know the reason why we feel such blows from nature. We do not know the consequences of this. We do not know how to turn to nature, to the Creator. How can we control our condition, how can we say that we have made it 60% of the way?

There must be a revelation of evil, that we feel bad. This is not evil yet.

Evil is when I realize that it comes to me because I am an egoist, I communicate incorrectly with people and with nature, and therefore I cause such blows to myself. The realization of the way I am is the realization of evil and it is the realization that it is bad for me. We have not uncovered the cause. And without uncovering the cause of the disease, no WHO will help here.

We just need to realize this and start correctly demanding our correction from nature, and not its correction or changes.

Question: And this is the beginning of healing?

Answer: Yes. The medicine is in us.

Question: Why is pursuing the truth, even if it is wrong, restricted by censorship? Basically, the whole world is censored.

Answer: The whole world is a totally egoistic field only engaged in planting weeds at the level of still, vegetative, animate, and human, trying to create something out of them to conquer the world, win, defeat, and break it. It is natural. Our whole world is built on a completely different nature.

If some company creates a website where people would advocate an ideologically correct direction of human development, then, of course, they will have to come to Kabbalah.

Question: Could there be disputes and differing opinions?

Answer: Of course. There can be disputes in revealing the truth. But these are disputes not about who is right and who is wrong but what the truth is. The main thing is to have the correct ideology. It does not matter to me who is right or wrong. We need to find out the law of nature that is outside of you and outside of me. We scrutinize it, and we strive for it together.

Question: We know that Kabbalists of the past always had different opinions. Were these disputes aimed to identify a higher level?

Answer: Of course! They greatly encouraged the difference and variety of opinions. This is how truth is revealed. As it is said: “Truth is born in a dispute.” But not in disputes that are currently taking place in parliaments of different countries.

The UN has issued another statement condemning Israel. However, we must understand that the main reason for the hatred of Jews is the fact that we are not fulfilling our purpose in the world, which is to explain to all nations how to achieve good connection and peace; otherwise, the world will slide further down its downward spiral.

The growth of antisemitism comes from the general law of development of humanity. If humanity has to develop and we do not sweeten this development through our correct behavior, then we cause hatred toward us. This is a law of nature.

Therefore, antisemitism will grow, and there is only one solution, which was described in the wisdom of Kabbalah and in the Torah thousands of years ago. We will not be able to escape from our mission. We have nowhere to hide. There is no place on Earth where we would be able to exist if we do not establish correct relationships.

Then it will influence all the nations of the world and they will look at us differently. Everything depends on the good and correct connection between Jews because the people of Israel were assembled from representatives of all the nations of the world. Only in this form can we oblige all nations to good association and connection, and then peace and tranquility will come to the entire world.

We are holding the key to happiness for the entire world. I cannot express how painful it is for me to see how people suffer and do not find solutions because they do not understand in what form nature operates and what interconnections exist in it. Yet, there is a solution. According to what the wisdom of Kabbalah and the Torah say nothing is required except for one thing: to bring the people of Israel to unity, and we will thus cause all the nations of the world to unite.

Unfortunately, it is easier for Jews to unite with their enemies and haters than with each other. After all, uniting with each other belongs to correction, and uniting with haters belongs to corruption. Our stony heart is drawn to corruption.

While we do not do that, nature will be beating us. Two days ago, more than hundred people died as a result of a tornado in the US state of Kentucky. In a few seconds, the city turned into ruins, an apocalyptic scene. And nature is already preparing more tornadoes.

It is possible to stop all natural disasters by uniting people. Let’s try. Maybe it will help right now. The force of unity of people is more powerful than any tornado, any natural disaster. It is even stronger than the upper force.

Any disaster—a hurricane, a financial crisis, a viral epidemic—all these are blows of nature in response to the lack of unity between people. The connection between people is the most internal force in the world, and if it is not sufficient, then nature reacts with blows.

Yet, people cannot unite because there is a group in humanity called Jews. This group is mandated to come to unity first and thus awaken the feeling in all the nations of the world that unity is the cure for all troubles.

Therefore, the nations of the world need to turn to the Jews and demand that they start working on their unification. This is what the United Nations is for. Instead of condemning the State of Israel, let them protest against the people of Israel all over the world for not working on unification in order to prevent natural disasters in all corners of the world in any form.

It does not matter in which country a Jew lives, in Russia, in America, or in Israel, whether he is rich or poor, any Jew who does not work on unification causes disasters in the world. Therefore, time is running out, we need to unite right now. Only if we show the entire world an example of unity, will we fulfill our purpose.

Question: Is there a spiritual root of natural disasters?

Answer: Of course there is. But the fact is that we invite them ourselves. It is the person, humanity, and their development that forces the entire nature to change.

Comment: It is strange because these disasters existed even before man appeared.

My Response: It does not matter that man allegedly did not exist in nature. He was in different states. As Baal HaSulam writes, everything develops only for the person and exists only for him. We are the cause and the purpose.

Question: What is the purpose of disasters?

Answer: To bring us to complete, absolute balance between us. Natural disasters are not punishment, but a force of development.

Comment: But every year millions of people are left without homes, tens of thousands of them die.

My Response: Nature hardly takes these things into account since they happen at the level of the animalistic existence of protein matter, not at the spiritual level.

Inanimate, vegetative, animate, and human nature in their various disasters affect each other from below upward and from above downward . Thus, the entire picture of the world moves forward.

The development of disasters can be prevented only by balancing the relationships between people because we are at the highest level of nature. If we stop taking the animate, vegetative, and inanimate levels of nature out of the state in which they are below us and dictate by our own balance their balance, then they will naturally come to it.

Question: Why does the law of natural development, as Baal HaSulam calls it, push us forward through suffering?

Answer: This happens according to the law of “negation of negation.” When I no longer want to stay in the previous state, then I accept the next one.

And the next state is always more complex, more unattractive. Why should I go from first grade to second, from second to third? It is better to remain a small child.

Therefore, it is very difficult to move from egoistic existence in this paradigm to the completely opposite one.

Question: Baal HaSulam writes: “And each good state is nothing but the fruit of the work in the bad state that preceded it. Indeed, these values of good and bad do not refer to the value of the state itself, but to the general purpose: Each state that brings humanity closer to the goal is considered good, and one that deflects them from the goal is considered bad.”

So no other goals are taken into account? But in our state, we do not even know that there is a purpose of creation.

Answer: That is the problem—that we do not know the final goal. And all our actions, everything that happens to us is only in relation to approaching the final goal. Nature directs us this way every moment.

But when we want something else, nature, like a mother, drags us by the hand like a stubborn child and if he resists, she drags him in the same direction more forcefully. And we resist all the time and try to go in different directions. This disparity between us and mother nature is called suffering.

Comment: You said that all the states that a person has to go through in our world are predetermined, one cannot change anything.

My Response: Mother nature will still drag him wherever is necessary. But he, feeling suffering, will scream and swear at it all the time like a little child.

Question: What kind of actions should a person conduct so that nature does not correct us with harsh methods?

Answer: Let a person correct himself. Correction is the movement toward mutual assistance, mutual understanding.

A man to a man is a friend, a helper, an empathizer. The most important thing is a good connection between people! With our negative attitudes, we cause constant explosions in nature.

Question: All primary sources write only about the spiritual states of a person. What is a volcanic eruption from a spiritual point of view?

Answer: It is an explosive movement toward balance when there is tremendous pressure. This is how it manifests itself externally.

But we can make all of nature beautiful without any problems that are observed today with the environment and everything else.

It depends only on our good relationships with each other. Therefore, I hope that humanity will still suffer a little, but then it will begin to listen to what Kabbalah says.
