Question: How can the people of Israel manage the realization of the system of attaining love for others if today, in my opinion, it is really behaving the opposite way?

Answer: It makes no difference how the people of Israel are behaving today. However, nobody else except for them can realize this method. This is because there is a spiritual gene in these people, a Reshimo (reminiscence) of that spiritual state in which it already existed at some time. Love of others is the same spiritual state. The spiritual world is love.

Question: Why don’t we feel that we have this spiritual gene in us?  Why is this state so concealed from us?

Answer: This is because we have fallen from the spiritual state of love of others to unfounded hatred, and we feel only that. If I get into an argument and quarrel with someone I love and begin to hate him, will I remember the love that was? At this moment, I am ready to kill him. And with the passage of time I will relax and love him again, forgetting about my hatred.

But this spiritual Reshimo is concealed within us and only needs to be awakened. For this, we were given a method that makes it possible.

Question: Is the latest war designed to awaken this spiritual gene in the people of Israel?

Answer: The war awakens us, but in a very difficult way. Whereas we could awaken ourselves if we begin to realize the method of Kabbalah: We open a book and begin to learn who we truly are, what the nations of the world are demanding from us, and what our duty is to the world, to all of humanity.

From the brochure “The Only Way Out”:

Israel is the nation of the idea, the idea of unity. This nation exists until now in order to implement the method of achieving unity and then pass it further along. Unity and love for the other—this is the example that it must show to the world. Beautiful slogans must become a reality.

Kabbalists have long been calling everyone, and especially Israel, to adopt this ancient method, which is proven in practice. This is only up to us.

“… If they accept the Kabbalistic method, this of course will prove to all the nations of the world that Israel was right in returning to their land. And even to the Arabs.”  Baal HaSulam

Question: Why is Israel, with all its military superiority, losing the war?

Answer: Today is not the government and the state that rules everything but public opinion, not only the public opinion in the country, but also the world public opinion towards different countries.

In this case it doesn’t matter who has the “Iron Dome” and who will win the war. The war is won by the one who can control public opinion both at home and abroad.

In order for us to organize the correct public opinion in the world, we need to justify our actions. We can justify our actions only if we tell the whole world why we strive to live here in Israel, why we are needed here, why living precisely in Israel we benefit the world.

And to justify their actions, we can only if we tell the world about why we strive to live here in Israel, why do we need here, why living in Israel we benefit the world.

This is what we need to do, meaning that we have to explain who we are, what our function in the world is, and how our struggle for our independence is going to help the world, that is, to bring the world to the corrected state.

History tells us that our people gathered around the Idea. Not around the river, not around some area, but around the Idea. We can resent, resist, and scream that we want to be like everyone else. Nothing will come of it. We will not be like everyone else because precisely the Idea determines what we should be.

This Idea was put forward by Abraham 3,800 years ago, in a fragmented, riven by discord Babylon. This was not some philosophizing or guessing. The Law that governs the world was revealed to Abraham.

Then, everything was “ruled” by idols. Every natural phenomenon had its god. And Abraham said: “We worship them in vain. It is not the idols what rules the world. There is a Single Law. The Law of Nature. The Law of Equilibrium. The Law of Unity. The Law of infinite Love. We exist within it. It covers us like a mother covers a child. If we correspond to it, we will prosper. If we don’t correspond to it, we’ll suffer.”

From the entire Babylon, only a few thousand people listened to Abraham. They followed him in search of happiness.

Thus a people of Israel was born. “Love thy neighbor as thyself” was the foundation of this nation. Unity became its root.

Question: It seems that if the Arabs fought one another, it would be for the benefit of Israel since they would leave us alone then.

Answer: We will never be left in peace. First, there are enough people in the Arab countries, hundreds of millions. They destroy each other, but it doesn’t make them any weaker. It is a very primitive perspective.

Don’t assume that they would leave Israel alone because of their inner wars. On the contrary, this way, they actually prepare themselves for the war against the Jews. They would never forget about us because they are occupied with each other.

In Syria, they are fighting and killing each other every day, but do they grow weaker? Every day, thousands come to Syria to replace those who are killed, and newer and better rockets are produced. These things are not related at all, and it is very naïve to hope for a solution of this sort.

The nation of Israel is a very special natural phenomenon. Nature has given it a very special mission, and it is up to them to determine whether the world will be united or separated. The entire structure of the world depends on the inner structure of the Israeli nation. The state of the Israeli nation, whether united or separated, determines the state of the entire world since Israel is the central point of the world. Isn’t that clear by the way the world treats us and pays attention only to us?

Therefore, the world turns to us and tells us that we must change the world for the better and help it unite! The global crisis broke out, and circumstances obliged us to bring the world to unity. The nations of the world cannot unite by themselves. The global crisis is the exact outcome of people’s inability to get along with one another because of their ego. Only the Israeli nation can provide humanity with a cover for their ego.

Question: It isn’t clear how Israel can help the world unite if we are torn by competition and different inner conflicts. They are killing each other in Syria with weapons, while in Israel, we are doing it in legitimate ways.

Answer: It is your fault that the Arabs are killing one another in Syria. It is your fault that there are thefts, murders, and crime all over the world and that the world is full of hate. The Israeli nation is responsible for that and especially you.

The nations of the world cannot correct themselves, unite, and come to good terms among themselves. They cannot do that since they are dominated by the ego.

Question: However we, Jews, also have an ego, even a super ego!

Answer: That’s right, but it is the kind of ego that can be controlled and corrected. When we correct our ego and connect, it will influence the nations of the world and will force them to connect. Without us, they will not be able to do so. It is only if the nation of Israel is connected that it will lead to the good connection of all the other nations, and then the world will reach correction, peace, and wholeness.

However, this can happen only if Israel leads the world to such changes since only Israel can perform them. Therefore, throughout history, the other nations have hated the Jews because we don’t fulfill our role. Today, however, we have reached the true fulfillment since the world is in a state of general crisis, and the nation of Israel has returned to the land of Israel and must fulfill its unity here, in this place, which means to reach brotherly love, the state of “all of Israel are friends.”

Thus, we unite the entire world. This is called, as it is written, “a Light to the nations.”

Question: I don’t understand why you are saying that we lack unity among the people of Israel. I think that in this difficult time a very good connection is made between people: We feel that we are in one boat. During a war we become very attentive and help each other. What kind of connection are you talking about?

Answer: But if a connection like this is created during war, it is based not upon love, but on fear. We are ready to help each other only in difficult times, meaning that there is no love in us. If I love someone else, I would always want to be near him, helping him all the time, like the closest relative, like my child.

It is necessary to understand that through unfounded hatred that separates us, we harm the world. And we can have a good influence on it through connection, like one man with one heart.

Question: So does it mean that there is a connection between unfounded hatred that rests within the people of Israel and the Arab-Israeli conflict?

Answer: All of the conflicts in the world are the result of separation within the people of Israel, including the present conflict. There is no other evil in the world besides the evil of the ego that splits the people of Israel. If we want to correct all of the evil that exists in the world and transform the world into good, we must connect, approach one another. If the people of Israel are divided, the whole world suffers more.

So come, let’s try to connect, indeed that is how it works. We are like a valve that regulates influence upon the world. If we connect more within, a good influence begins to pass to the world through us, and if we are divided, evil comes into the world through us. The people of Israel are unique; they are the origin of good or bad influence on the whole world.

We are not fulfilling the role that was imposed upon our people which was even written about thousands of years ago, and through separation between us we draw rocket fire upon ourselves. It is difficult to accept this, but this is the law of nature. Start thinking about it and you will see that it works this way unambiguously.

We cannot exist if we don’t fulfill this law and don’t bring good to the world through the connection between us. If we are divided, the whole world suffers, including us.

We cannot be like everyone in the world and be like other nations. We tried to do this many times, but we didn’t succeed. We have to fulfill our unique role.

The nations of the world blame Israel for causing bad for everyone. Nations declare this which are found thousands of kilometers from Israel and have no connection with us. And in spite of it all they hate Israel, even though they have never seen a Jew and have no concept of how he looks.

This anti-Semitism is the result of a law of nature. We project separation, meaning the hatred that exists within the people of Israel, to other peoples and cause their hatred, crises, and conflicts. They claim that the Jews run the banks, industry, destroying their environment, almost sending typhoons on them, meaning the Jews are to blame for all their troubles.

The nations of the world feel inside that there is a people found everywhere in the world. It acts only for its own good and causes harm to others instead of bestowing good on the world.

So the whole world stands behind Hamas and supports it openly or indirectly, and secretly hopes that it will be finished with the nation of Israel once and for all. And we ourselves cause a relationship like this through separation among the people, because of which we become the source of all the troubles.

The more separated we are, we give the world a worse example, and it also becomes divided. As a result of this, the nations of the world feel worse, and they feel this evil comes from Israel. The whole world receives the form in which the people of Israel are found. So if we want it to be good for all the peoples, we must connect among us and reach that harmony and love of others that we experienced standing before Mount Sinai, as one person with one heart.

And if we advance towards a connection like this, we will see how the whole world will necessarily begin to be built according to the people of Israel, loving it and seeing it as a good angel. And that Hamas will become the best friend of Israel, the beloved brother who is devoted to keeping its soul. Through our behavior we manage nature, the whole picture of the world. So it is up to us only to realize our role in the world, especially at this time, when the world is found in such a dangerous situation on the threshold of World War III.

Question: You are trying to prove that if we begin to work on improving the relations within the Israeli nation, the Arab terrorists, who grew up in Gaza and who have been preached to since birth that to kill a Jew is the most honorable action and that thanks to that you reach Eden, will suddenly calm down. This claim seems naïve. What is the connection between our inner relationship and the conduct of the terrorist?

Answer: I understand that your doubts are real. But tell me please, why does everyone hate the Jews and why do people say that we are the reason for the troubles in the world? Why is there such strong anti-Semitism in South Korea? If it were a Christian country, we could somehow understand it, but have the Jews ever insulted Buddha? Or have we conquered any Korean territories?

Why is anti-Semitism growing everywhere? Why does it exist? There is a rational, sensible explanation but we simply don’t see the connection. It is just as if prehistoric man would see me press a button on the wall and then see the room filled with light. He would think that I am an angel or a magician. It is the same here, there is a connection. Don’t be as primitive as prehistoric man and try to see the connection between the different phenomena in the world.

This is clear even to people who don’t know the wisdom of Kabbalah, the inner Torah, the true wisdom, but simply from their life experience, from examining and analyzing historical facts. Anti-Semitism is an indication that the Jewish people are special and that they influence the whole world. Anti-Semites accuse us for the evil in the world.

Thus they actually claim: “We depend on you! Stop harming us! We cannot correct the situation in any way, you are stronger than us!” In other words, they are asking us to do them good, and the good state is unity.

You should learn this from nature. Nature is global and balanced and only mankind harms everyone: It intervenes and destroys nature and brings it to a state of imbalance. It is because man doesn’t use his ego naturally in order to live and to receive from nature what he needs to survive, but mercilessly robs nature and destroys it.

Question: So it turns out that our ego is killing us. Is this the diagnosis?

Answer: The ego separates people and we have to learn to connect above the ego. It says, “love will cover all the sins.” We should learn to do it. The Israeli nation knows how to do it and should start this correction. The moment it starts the correction it will immediately spread all over the world.

The nations of the world will feel that the correction comes from Israel and will begin to regard us with love, to help and support us. Our Arab neighbors who are ready to destroy us now will help us live good life.

We actually summon the waves of hate all over the world by refusing to connect and to ascend above the ego that separates us. But if we do so, the waves of hate will turn into the waves of love.

If we look at what is happening from this perspective we will feel shame for not fulfilling our mission, our role. On the whole, we should have begun to fulfill it in the days of the ARI in the 16th century.

But since the beginning of the 20th century we simply have to start the correction, from the moment we were given the opportunity to return to the Land of Israel. Thus we have received the conditions to fulfill our mission regarding the nations of the world. We exist only for the sake of the world.

The Jewish people are the same group that Abraham had gathered in ancient Babel and took out of Babel in order to unite it and with its help correct all of Babel. The wisdom of Kabbalah tells about all that.

Such is our country: a country with one destiny for everyone. And with thoughts about the future. What awaits us? What awaits our children? Our grandchildren? In general, do we have the future, or are we destined to endlessly fend off bandits, breaking into our homes?

But how long can this last? How long can we shudder from news reports: “For the past twenty four hours there were four killed”? And see the pictures of smiling 19-20 year old boys. Today, there are already dozens killed! And each of them is close, dear. And everyone is the crack in the heart.

In this difficult time, we badly want to keep strong, not to lose hope. And we so much want to give hope to others: “Everything will be fine, guys! There will be peace and tranquility! You’ll see, we’ll still be happy here in our home.”

We just have to understand something, to make a small effort. Very small! And then fate turns to face us, and we will say with surprise: “Is it so easy?! And why have we resisted all the time?'”

That’s why we have decided to write a special booklet. And do not be surprised that we start a conversation with another war.

Question: Throughout the history of the Jewish people, they have always won the war against enemies only when it was united. Is the same thing happening now?

Answer: Of course. This is because the laws of nature do not change. The people of Israel should consider themselves as a natural phenomenon. We always won by our unity. It was in the days of Mordechai and Esther, and in the wars of the Maccabees, and in the wars of King David.

However, it was not a simple unity like in a military unit going on a combat mission that ends afterward. It is the unification of the entire nation of Israel as one man with one heart, which nature requires of us. You can call it a requirement of the Creator because nature is synonymous to the Creator. The upper force, about which the wisdom of Kabbalah is talking, is the general force of nature that is above us.

This is an absolutely materialistic approach, without any mysticism, and it’s not faith. Simple prayers will not help, and we are becoming convinced of this: only unity. Today, the people of Israel face the goal not just to unite in order to defeat enemies, but in order to bring good to the entire world.

Enemies are attacking us, putting pressure on us, and wanting to destroy us. In this way, they oblige us to connect with each other.

Question: It’s very confusing because it seems that we need to unite in order to destroy the enemies.

Answer: Today, it is clear, there is no confusion. After all, we cannot destroy them. We cannot even fight them with all our strength. Is it possible nowadays to bombard Gaza? Israel takes time to persuade the inhabitants of Gaza to move away from the house that it prepares to bombard, and if they do leave, then a bomb is dropped on this house.

Question: So, isn’t it a sign that Israel brings Light to the nations of the world? Enemies are launching rockets at us, wanting to kill our civilians—they abducted and killed three children—and we, as enlightened people, knock on their doors and ask them to go out so that we can blow up the house. Is there any other nation who would act in this way?

Answer: However, is this the way Israel brings Light to the nations of the world, showing an example of how we should act? Are the nations of the world expecting from Israel an example of how to fight war in a humane and civilized manner? Is it possible to bring good to the entire world by this?

Enemies say very simply, in the form Israel behaves today, it is better that it doesn’t exist, and in this, the entire world will join them. We no longer have allies. If the UN passes a vote, no one will support us. Everyone will be against.

After all, the main war is not against enemies, but against our own egoism that stands between us and separates us. The first condition is to become the people of Israel, in other words, to be connected within us as one man with one heart. Only then can we be called the people of Israel, and in this case, this nation is supposed to be in the land of Israel if it corrects itself and becomes united. And by this, we will create good conditions worldwide.

Question: What exactly helps to come to a warm feeling of connection in a circle?

Answer: Everyone perceives themselves equally. There are not those who are higher or lower, all want to connect, and this connection is possible only between equals. I accept everyone’s opinion, all hearts, all thoughts. It is important to me to be integrated into them and disappear there, to enter there and dissolve.

And that is what everyone thinks. Within a feeling like this we build one heart as one person. At the same moment when we attain a connection like this, we feel within this shared heart a unique power, an intelligence called the Torah. For we maintain the conditions of receiving the Torah: We have become like one man with one heart.

And so we feel that we have become one desire and one thought. This common desire and thought become for all of us a feeling of an elevated state, higher and loftier than our present corporeal life. This raises us above our families, above this land, above all material life.

We have already begun to feel that power that intentionally arranges for us an uncomfortable form like this in this earthly life, with incessant problems and wars, so that we will rise to His level. If from this moment on we continue by awakening ourselves to an even stronger connection and discover the higher force even more, we can advance without any external disturbances.

On the contrary, we are going on the good way all the time with “I will hasten it” (Achishena), in the way of the Light. And by raising ourselves upwards we attract all of the people of Israel after us and after them the whole world as if we are dragging a net behind us: Everyone joins in and rises.

Question: This is truly so, but the moment that I go out of the circle and look at the news, I immediately forget about the feeling of connection in the circle…. How is it possible to hold onto it and disseminate to all of the people of Israel?

Answer: Again it is necessary to gather for workshops again and again, and outside of your circle there will be thousands of other circles. Each one of them, through its action, influences the others and they influence it.

And so we discover that we can change the world only through such action of connection. We truly become the masters of our fate. But it is impossible to correct the situation through the elimination of a few terrorists and the destruction of their bases. We don’t change history with this, it repeats itself. Our connection is the only means for turning history towards a new horizon.
