Seeds Of Exile, Part 3

laitman_746.03When a Common Root is Missing

Remark: At the beginning of our era, Judea was ruled not by kings and spiritual leaders, but by Roman governors. At that time, the people were highly polarized, and a huge number of sects based on ideological differences appeared. Nevertheless, the desire to regain sovereignty among the people did not fade.

In the year 66, the country rose in a riot, which became the First Judean War. It is interesting that, in fact, the rebels tried to restore the lack of spirit by force of arms. We know how strong the Roman and Greek armies were, but the Jews almost constantly won the wars.

My Comment: Yes, they could fight. Although, of course, they mostly fought in spirit.

Remark: In one of his letters, Baal HaSulam writes: The sages claimed that the reason for the destruction of the Second Temple was not idolatry, but unfounded hatred, because they could not fulfill the basis of the Torah love your neighbor as yourself.

My Comment: Exactly this unfounded hatred became the basis for the destruction of the Second Temple.

Unfounded means that people did not put the connection between them at the top of their existence. You cannot rise above any cause in your hatred of the other, to be together with him in unity. That is, unfounded hatred is equivalent to the concept of causeless love.

Remark: But this is already the opposite side.

My Comment: Yes. This is how it should be seen because the reason for hatred can always be found.

Question: Still, what does unreasonable mean?

Answer: It means that you do not even need to look for reasons to hate, you still do not love him, do not want to live with him, be friends, and communicate.

Question: Where does this come from?

Answer: From human nature.

Remark: The most interesting thing is that this was observed only among Jews.

My Comment: Yes. The fact is that other peoples have a common root. So, their hatred for each other always has a reason. At the same time, they still consider the harm doer one of their own, as a brother hates a brother: Despite the fact that I hate him, he is still my fellow native.

The Jews do not. Here the hatred between people is such that they do not feel a brother in the other. They do not feel it! He is not mine, he belongs to another, completely alien tribe, the opposite of me.

Remark: That is, if there is no ideology that Moses described in his laws, then, in principle, the people do not understand what they have in common.

My Comment: They have nothing in common. And so, there is no reason to be together.

Remark: Flavius Josephus in The Jewish Wars puts the following words into the mouth of one of the generals: “God is a better General than I am. He will give the Jews free of charge into the hands of the Romans, and give victory to our armies without difficulty or danger. While our enemies are slaughtering each other because of the terrible curse of brotherly war, it is better for us to look at them from afar and sit quietly instead of interfering in the conflict of people who are going to their death, fighting madly among themselves.”

My Comment: First, Josephus Flavius, being a Jew himself, understood their nature very well. It was obvious what was really going on.

laitman_293War is an Expression of Egoism

Remark: During the 6,000 years of the existence of civilized humanity on Earth, wars have been constantly waged. In total, they’ve only been gone for 200 years. Historians distinguish five main wars: the First and Second World Wars, and three more wars in China, during which hundreds of millions of people died.

My Comment: This is an amazing state of the world when people simply annihilate each other. They give free rein to their egoism, which cannot tolerate others, and come up with all sorts of reasons to kill.

Remark: War is like an expression of egoism. Every story is a story of war.

My Comment: On the other hand, we do not even imagine what would happen to the world if war had not been waged. Over the past 70 years, there have been no wars on such vast continents as Europe and Asia, and look what happened to humanity. The world’s population has grown from two million to eight.

We see that with uncorrected egoism, wars become necessary, because only in this way humanity restrains and purifies itself.

laitman_747.03The Confrontation Between the Maccabees and the Hellenists

Question: What was the ideological conflict between the Maccabees and the Hellenistic Jews?

Answer: The opposition was that the Maccabees were in favor of uniting the people under one common principle so that all were like brothers who felt the inner unity of each other.

And the Hellenists were for proclaiming each person free, independent, not worshipping the one God, i.e., the one force, nature, and, accordingly, the one uniting principle. Each person chose from a large host of gods to worship, as in ancient times when people worshiped trees, stones, celestial forces, stars, etc.

As a result, there was a huge difference between them in their ideology, behavior, and attitude toward each other. In principle, the Hellenists existed each by himself. Their state was held only by bayonets, despite the fact that later they were guided by reasonable methods borrowed from the Jews after the conquest of Israel.

The World Must Force The Jews To Unite

laitman_571.01Question: Jews are a special group of people. What distinguishes them?

Answer: Jews are the carriers of the method of bestowal, love, and unification of all the peoples of the world.

They are carriers of the method even today, only they themselves do not know about it. But they have a hidden spiritual gene.

Everybody hates the Jews because they do not implement this method between themselves and do not pass it on to others.

Question: But is this all unconscious, not because they don’t want to?

Answer: Yes. But the presence of this method within the Jews still makes them special in other activities.

Question: Is there a formula that everything bad in the world comes from poor connection between people?

Answer: Naturally. But in particular from the bad connection between the Jews.

Question: Does everything bad in the world happen because of Jews?

Answer: This is an axiom. It means the world must force the Jews to unite. And then humanity will unite in a good connection, and everything will be fine.

And we, the Kabbalists, should improve the methodology, bring it closer to everyone.

The Reason For Hatred Of Jews

119Baal HaSulam, The Writings of the Last Generation & The Nation: It is a fact that Israel is hated by all the nations, whether for religious, racial, capitalist, communist, or for cosmopolitan reasons, etc. It is so because the hatred precedes all reasons, but each merely resolves its loathing according to its own psychology.

Question: You claim that Jews consciously or unconsciously unite the nations. And if they do not perform their key function, then pressure from the peoples is activated, which manifests itself as anti-Semitism?

Answer: Yes. Only no one understands this. That is why there is a subconscious demand of the peoples of the world: “Why don’t you unite us?” This is expressed in the form of hatred.

When I see anti-Israel, anti-Semitic processions on the streets of New York, Paris, anywhere, I feel their inner cry: “Why don’t you reveal the unity of the world to us, the supreme existence?”

Remark: You know, I wouldn’t believe it if I hadn’t become acquainted with the sayings of many famous philosophers and wise people.

In particular, the English publicist and politician Addison Joseph wrote about the Jews: “They are like the pegs and nails in great building, which, though they are but little valued in themselves, are absolutely necessary to keep the whole frame together.”

My Comment: This feeling is in every human being.

Irrationality Or Rationality?

laitman_294.2Remark: Throughout history, there have been several types of irrationality about the existence of the Jews.

The first irrationality: Jews brought the world a lot of great ideas and discoveries; they are the founders of religions. 27% of all Nobel Laureates are Jews, 37% of Oscar-winners—Jews, 40% of leading philanthropists who subsidize all sorts of humane projects—Jews. But no one pays attention to it.

My Comment: No one appreciates it.

Remark: Irrationality number two: No matter how the Jews try to dissolve into other nations, they do not become Germans, Poles, or French.

My Comment: They cannot dissolve in the peoples of the world, despite mixed marriages, no matter what.

Remark: It turns out that in Germany during the First World War, about 100,000 officers were Jews. That is, they tried, as far as possible, to assimilate. It did not help.

Irrationality number three: The crazy accusation of using the blood of children for Passover, thrown by someone, exists from the time of Democritus to the present day.

My Comment: A glaring irrationality. Jews generally do not consume blood for food. The most irrational things are the most tenacious.

Remark: The fourth irrationality: Anti-Semitism is not the refuge of uneducated, wild people, but namely the most advanced part of humanity.

My Comment: Yes, as a rule, anti-Semites are educated, advanced, cultured people.

Question: The last (irrationality): It is irrational that for centuries an exterminated people continueד to live.

How can you explain these phenomena?

Answer: They are irrational from the point of view of the earthly approach. If you look at it from the point of view of the structure of the universe and its forces, then there is nothing irrational in it. There is a group, which in its internal structure, its mission, should lead humanity to the property of bestowal and love, to communication, to complete integration.

This group cannot be destroyed because, first, it contains a common rational kernel—the future of mankind.

This so-called Reshimo is an informational record about the final state of humanity when all of humanity becomes one, perfect, and turns into one common system called Adam. At the same time, everyone absolutely clearly and internally understands the properties of each other and, despite the fact that they exist separately in their bodies, they feel each other so much that they do everything in general agreement.

This is connected with the Torah, with the technique that they received. It leads a person to such a state where he begins to feel everyone as himself.

Each is in his body, in his egoism, and outside of his body, outside of egoism, as if with a skin he feels everyone else and begins to understand how he needs to act in order to work together with them for the common good.

Remark: This is similar to the synchronized movement of a flock of birds or fish, only not instinctive, but conscious.

My Comment: Conscious, with great efforts over one’s egoism, which counteracts this movement. Due to the fact that a person consists of two opposing forces—receiving and bestowing, hatred and love—he begins to reveal between them their source, the root, which is called the Creator.

Remark: On one hand, there is natural selection, and on the other hand, there is co-evolution, when for the sake of a common goal, all the cells of one organism are ready to sacrifice some personal interest.
There is personal interest, but the community is more important. It is hard to even imagine such a state.

My Comment: But this state exists in nature at the inanimate, plant, and animal level. We should only add our human level to it, communication between us.

Laitman_931.02After Entering the Land of Israel

Question: After entering the Land of Israel, a good period began for the Jewish people for some time. As Philo of Alexandria writes in the 3rd century BC: “Thousands of people from different cities come to the Temple to cleanse their hearts, make connections with other people and find evidence of eternal unity.”

In The Book of D’varim (Deuteronomy), it is written that the sages speak of the nations of the world who were shocked by such relationships between people and asked to join the people of Israel.

What did the nations of the world see in the relations between the Jewish people, and how was this manifested externally?

Answer: Externally, this was manifested in the fact that, first, there was favor on the part of nature, on the part of the world, on the climate, in all that a person needs to exist correctly and happily on earth.

Second, the Jews were in good connection with each other, and this did not require strict decrees, coercion, and prodding. Everything worked in harmony.

Therefore, this was also reflected on Earth, in society, in raising children, and so on. It was, indeed, a very favorable period between the time when the people returned from the exile and the time when they again began to quarrel with each other.

Sparks Of Aspiration To The Creator

laitman_942Question: You say that there is a natural hatred of the peoples of the world for Jews, the carriers of the unification methodology.

Now, if any person from the peoples of the world joins this group of people, will he automatically start to be hated too?

Answer: No. Today, everything is so diluted that no one notices, sees, or knows.

This is a completely new state that we are only introducing into the world. But gradually, people will begin to feel that something is wrong with these people. Americans, British, Europeans, Russians, no matter who, will look at this person and say: “Something is wrong with you.” They will see in him a spark of something Jewish.

Question: Do you mean that this will manifest itself in people of the ten lost tribes?

Answer: No, absolutely not necessarily. Just in any person from the peoples of the world, a point in the heart, which is in everyone, can appear. A point in the heart is an aspiration for the unity of the world, for its single strength, i.e., for the Creator. Awakening, it begins to bother a person. He wants to understand how the world exists, where this unity is, etc. It is this spark that makes him a Jew.

Anyone Can Become A Jew

36Remark: One of the reasons for anti-Semitism is cosmopolitanism and globalism, which is supported by Jews.

My Comment: This is in Jewish nature because the very approach of Jews to the world has always been integral. The world is an integrated system that is interconnected at all levels. It comes from their spiritual root.

Remark: There is another interesting statement that anti-Semitism is like a virus in humanity, like a cloud of hatred that overshadowed the consciousness of people.

My Comment: As soon as the Babylonian state was organized in which people began to unite and selfishness began to manifest between them, the technique for correcting it immediately appeared. Everything went from there.

The unification technique is called Kabbalah. A group that agrees to connect is called Jews from the word “Yichud” (union). All the others who are against this are the nations of the world.

Remark: You often claim that this has nothing to do with nationality.

My Comment: Indeed, there is no such nationality as Jews. According to Rambam, Abraham gathered his group from all over Babylon.

Question: Suppose, if someone now joins the methodology of unity, will he become a Jew?

Answer: Yes, anyone. People of different nationalities who joined this group throughout history, as a rule, became very great Jews. For example, Rabbi Akiva, Onkelos, and many others. Even the grandmother of King David was a Moabite.

Anti-Semitism In Social Networks And Beyond

laitman_293Remark: Jews are a group of people who have united on an ideological basis and stayed in such a connection.

My Comment: This was back in ancient Babylon at the time of Abraham. People felt that they wanted to be united because in this movement they could find themselves, answer the question about the meaning of their existence.

Remark: At first, this group developed within itself. Then, according to the plan of creation, as it is written in all the sources, they were to pass this method to all the nations.

If for some reason, they did not do this, then another law was activated—the law of anti-Semitism, some counteracting force that separates people, in order to forcefully unite them later.

There are many manifestations of anti-Semitism. Nowadays, it is actively displayed in social media; it is anonymous, and remains unpunished. You can also see this in the comments under your videos. Human nature is evil, and when people also encourage each other, it naturally takes a different turn.

My Comment: I never read these comments. Why should I be soaking in their hatred? I already know human nature. I know they have nothing good to say about anyone but themselves.

Anti-Semitism is within them. It is not from them, but from above. This is a reaction to our incorrect behavior, to our failure to follow the method of correction, to the fact that we are lagging in implementing it.

To the extent that we are late in correcting and spreading the methodology, they hate us and therefore write such comments. To the extent that I am hated by everyone in the world, I see that I am doing my job correctly.

I do not take offense with them. I think that this is mine! Here I work from two sides. Their reaction to me depends on my behavior, on my success in spreading the method of correction to mankind. If they are so angry with me, it means that I still cannot cope with my responsibilities.

Question: Does that sort of reaction from their side suggest that you can’t explain the method in a clear way yet?

Answer: Yes. It is not their fault. They react automatically, they are controlled by nature. So, I look at everything calmly, expecting nothing else from them.

On the contrary, it is all natural and comes from the Creator. I do not relate it to any person, I always relate it directly to the Creator. In other words, I have to test myself to see if I can somehow further disseminate this method of correction, show the world that it is necessary for everyone, and then maybe they will change. But it is unlikely.

Remark: I specifically gave an example of anti-Semitism on the Internet to show just how hatred can become global. If earlier, people were limited to pogroms in some villages, and it did not even spread throughout the country, today, due to the development of the Internet, hatred can be cultivated and grow very quickly.

My Comment: It is global, it is in all continents, it is in all nations.

But in the end, we will overcome the Jewish inertia, and we, Kabbalists, will be heard. Perhaps under the blows of fate that await the Jews, but they will fulfill their historical mission.

In accordance with this, to the extent that the whole world is now soaked with anti-Semitism and will become even more so, humanity will begin to understand and perceive this method on the same scale. Therefore, the whole world is preparing for this, but still in a negative sense.
