Question: How can we be sure that it is actually the wisdom of Kabbalah that reveals the upper force? After all, every religion claims that.

Answer: That, I cannot say. The wisdom of Kabbalah doesn’t focus on attracting people.

A person must delve into the sources, listen to what they say, dig in the primary sources on our site, and then realize if it is what he is looking for or not. If it isn’t for you, keep on looking elsewhere, and if it is for you, we will be very happy.

Of course, we are interested in people hearing us because, as I have learned from my own experience, the wisdom of Kabbalah gives a person a feeling of eternity, wholeness, and a feeling that he manages his own fate. He is not afraid of dying in the physical sense since he ascends to another level of existence while here in this life.

I think that nothing can give a person what the wisdom of Kabbalah does. I am not speaking about different religions, since they appeared as a result of the wisdom of Kabbalah being concealed. It is the foundation of all the religions, spiritual practices, and even philosophies.

The wisdom of Kabbalah is the foundation of all of the sciences. The ancient sources tell us about that, and all of the wisdoms and sciences stem from these sources.

Question: If life is a play, how can we live without knowing the rules and the goal of the director and the playwright?

Answer: It is all revealed to a person gradually. People who study the wisdom of Kabbalah attain the plan of the system of the upper providence with regard to themselves and to all of humanity.

They discover how to be incorporated in it, how to fulfill it correctly, and how to succeed personally and in relation to others.

In principle, each of us is the director of this universal play. When we unite in order to improve the plan of providence, we become one common director.

Opinion (Hal Lewis, physicist): “It is of course, the global warming scam, with the (literally) trillions of dollars driving it, that has corrupted so many scientists, and has carried APS before it like a rogue wave. It is the greatest and most successful pseudoscientific fraud I have seen in my long life as a physicist. Anyone who has the faintest doubt that this is so should force himself to read the ClimateGate documents, which lay it bare. (Montford’s book organizes the facts very well.) I don’t believe that any real physicist, nay scientist, can read that stuff without revulsion. I would almost make that revulsion a definition of the word scientist.

“So what has the APS, as an organization, done in the face of this challenge? It has accepted the corruption as the norm, and gone along with it…

“I do feel the need to add one note, and this is conjecture, since it is always risky to discuss other people’s motives. This scheming at APS HQ is so bizarre that there cannot be a simple explanation for it. Some have held that the physicists of today are not as smart as they used to be, but I don’t think that is an issue. I think it is the money, exactly what Eisenhower warned about a half-century ago. There are indeed trillions of dollars involved, to say nothing of the fame and glory (and frequent trips to exotic islands) that go with being a member of the club.”

My Comment: In our times, everything in the world is up for sale, or exchange for other benefits. This is evident in the awarding of Nobel prizes, the empty talk of the United Nations, UNESCO, etc. The circle closes and clearly reveals the primitive nature of humanity, the egoistic desire.

In principle, how is it possible to condemn these people if none of us is able to make the smallest movement without any benefit for oneself, which is the energy required for motion! Only a higher reward, the discovery of the Creator, can awaken and push a person to carry out altruistic movement.

Question: What criteria make it possible to speak about Kabbalah as a higher science?

Answer: The problem is that the wisdom of Kabbalah cannot be accessible to by every person who studies a few years in a university and already considers himself to be a budding scientist.

In Kabbalah, you must wait for internal changes where you begin to perceive the world according to completely new personal qualities that manifest in you under the influence of the development of a unique method.

Then you will begin to feel the world in an expanded form, above your former characteristics, and will observe its past and present sensations from the side.

This new reality makes it possible for you to be your own researcher; in fact, being on a higher level of attainment, you simultaneously feel your present physical level. We call that a beastly stage because it is perceived only through our physical (beastly) body.

A Kabbalist is a person who goes to the level of attainment through his new characteristics, perceiving the universe through them, which looks completely different to him, and simultaneously he observes his previous state. This means that he sees both what he perceives through his five corporeal senses and what he perceives in his new spiritual senses.

So, it is difficult for us to talk about the reliability and repeatability, the truth of this perception, because it is only in those who reach these changes within themselves. But everyone who have gone through them generally attain absolutely identical feelings. They begin to develop a recording, a reconstructing apparatus, a personal response.

In principle, they engage in exactly the same science as the scientists of our world, but it is on another, higher level. The only problem is ascending to this level, generating five new senses within myself to perceive our world through them, but more expansively.

Question: But every person has a personal root of this soul. So each discovers it in his own way. Does it follow that a Kabbalist is subjective until he or she reaches the full completion of correction and understands who, where, and why?

Answer: Yes, a Kabbalist can speak only about what he perceives. Only on this level does he have the right to express himself and, even then, in a very limited way because the accurate scientific understanding of every spiritual level is connected with all the other levels until the full correction of our perception.

So, even on the smallest intermediate levels, in every case, some parts remain that are not fully comprehended and we feel our limitations through them.

When we ascend the ladder of the spiritual worlds, we pass through 125 levels, but every one of them is apparently limited in the width and depth of its attainment. In other words, it is impossible to understand all the levels to the end as long as we haven’t completely gone through them.

Kabbalah recognizes and accepts this, so there exists within it a completely precise understanding of all its limitations.

Question: Does Kabbalah have a patent for how to find enjoyment?

Answer: Our world enables us to enjoy less and less, despite the fact that we make enormous efforts: advertising, TV, all kinds of tricks, sports, leisure, and tourism. A person does everything he can in order to find enjoyment. And nothing. Everything disappears and fades away very quickly. In the past a person was happy with a piece of meat or cheese and some vegetables.  Today you walk into a supermarket and there is such an abundance that you don’t know what to choose, and still people have lost the taste in life.

The wisdom of Kabbalah is the wisdom of receiving, of pleasure and satiation. It explores the nature of our world, the desire to enjoy, and teaches a person how to do it correctly.

Why is the wisdom of Kabbalah considered a secret study that is concealed from people? Because people had to undergo a great multi-millennial history in order to find out that they cannot find enjoyment in the framework of our nature, while on the next level, the levels of the spiritual nature, they can be filled with an eternal upper pleasure.

This feeling of eternity is the feeling of the eternal pleasure of perpetual movement in a huge bed of love, comprehension, content, and revelation. This is called the upper world, the next world, the Garden of Eden. This is where the wisdom of Kabbalah is leading us and it is all open for us.

Question: Does a person have to do any special exercises or meditations in order to achieve that?

Answer: No. You don’t need to pray or to meditate, you simply need to study two or three hours at least a couple times a week. You can do every day. We have opened Bnei Baruch Kabbalah Education Centers.

In addition to the study, we also have conventions in different parts of the world, from South America to North America, Europe, Russia, and other countries. Everyone is invited to these conventions, including those who have just begun to study.

The most important is the study of the correct mutual interaction between people because this is how you begin to understand how the system of connections in the upper world is built. It is opposite from our system, and pushes people to get closer to one another. It is actually in the connection between us that we find the entrance to the upper world.

Question: Baal HaSulam, the greatest Kabbalist of the 20^th century, wrote in one of his letters about the possibility of a Third World War and even a fourth. What do the Kabbalists think? Will this happen or not?

Answer: The Kabbalists see the general system of management, the possibilities that are ahead for us. They see that freedom of choice exists for every person and for all of humanity.

There are two ways by which we move through all kinds of states: the way of suffering and the way of Torah (Light).

If we want to go according to the usual route of physical life, we think only about that and don’t invest effort in lifting ourselves above our world so this world will begin to bring us into an even greater blind alley ultimately compelling us to ascend.

However, before we decide to begin our ascent, we would experience intense suffering, including World Wars Three and Four, and other terrible situations. We see that nothing is changing for the better in the meantime.

Question: In other words, World Wars Three and Four are latent in the higher plan, and now everything depends on how much we, humans, are consciously included in the program of nature.

Answer: Not only this, latent in the program of nature are ecological problems, hunger, climactic blows, earthquakes, etc. All of this is for the purpose of shaking us so that we would feel a need for the next level of development, but all of this is through the beastly perception of the physical body.

However, if we want to raise ourselves spiritually, we combine this with completely different forces because we would begin to influence the system of management itself! Our lowest system won’t obligate us to go out to the next level. Rather, we ourselves voluntarily ascend to it.

Then, our participation would seem different, and the world would become wonderful. We would become integrated wisely in its management and go forward. We would understand why. This would change our lives completely and our attitude toward them.

A movement like this is called movement according to the ray of Light. The Light is ascent above our beastly existence. It is a desire to approach something higher.

The system of management is found above me. This is what I must understand, knowing that I must be integrated into it. The approach toward this is called the movement of the Light. Every person must go through this, and those who have not gone through it will go through it.

Question: When you are sick, you continue to give lessons for three hours. How do you do it? When I have a fever, I stay home and don’t go to the lesson.

Answer: And do you go to work?

Comment: When I have a high fever, I can’t move.

Answer: And in the case that you would be fired from work and your family would be left without any means of subsistence? You see this is the question: how could you stay home?

I am asking the same question. Because I work and receive a salary, but it is spiritual. I am being paid with the opportunity to bestow and so I get up for the lesson. After all, man simply calculates what is more important to him and acts accordingly.

Question: The Book of Zohar is a major part of studying Kabbalah, but, at the same time, The Book of Zohar is divided into many parts and is very complicated. There are three volumes that explain the five books of the Torah (the Pentateuch).

Beyond that, there is The New Zohar and other books that are not included in the other volumes such as The Secrets of the Letters (Sitrei Otiyot), Raza de Razin, and so forth.

Recently, I have come across a book called Parashat Pinchas (the weekly section of the Torah Pinchas) in Russian, translated by Ephraim Bauch, and I have not found this book in the editions you have published.

So, is all of that The Book of Zohar? Do all of these books draw the Light, even the above-mentioned Raza de Razin that speaks about different lines on the palm of the hand? Please tell me what is the complete Book of Zohar?

Answer: There are many versions, commentaries, and translations of The Book of Zohar. To avoid confusion, I recommend only The Book of Zohar with the Sulam Commentary by Baal HaSulam or Zohar La’am in Hebrew or the version that is translated into different languages.

Running Hurdles

Question: New technological developments will improve and develop our sensory organs of perception in the future. Instead of eyeglasses, there will be a chip implanted in the eyes, instead of a telephone, a chip in the ear or in the brain. Will this process lead to the advancement of the human race?

Answer: Humans don’t develop in this way. Instead of advancement, it only gives the opportunity for others to control us. If a computer or a mobile telephone is implanted as a chip in our brain, it would be possible to connect to us and broadcast a movie that replaces the reality. So, for the rest of our lives, we’ll lay in bed all day thinking that we moving about in the world.

And how do we know that our world today, without a chip implanted in our brains, is not a hallucination? We live in a matrix program. Human advancement is possible not because of advanced technologies, but only as a result of internal growth. With the help of the wisdom of Kabbalah, we learn to perceive a new level, the upper world that is eternal and perfect.

Kabbalah develops a new organ of perception in humans—love of our neighbors, through which we eventually will sense a new world. We just need to overcome a psychological barrier. This is possible because it’s not a wall, but only a small obstacle, like running hurdles. Together, we can leap over this psychological barrier and start sensing a new reality.

When it happens, we’ll discover that everything depends only on our attitude. Should our attitude to others decline, we’ll return to the level of this world, i.e,. descend from the upper realm. However, if we correct our attitude to others, we’ll rise back to the upper world.

What will a man of the future be?

The purpose of human development is to change our properties to the extent that our locked, deaf hearts open to others.

This goal is set for us by nature. When we pursue this purpose, we discover new sensations and replace our egoistic desires with the desire to bestow. This new attitude will allow us to discover a new world.

Question: What is the desire to bestow?

Answer: It is a desire to give, share, and take care of others. With all our heart, we want to be connected with something that is outside us.

But so far we cannot treat our neighbors in this manner since people around us act egoistically and all we’ll achieve by behaving altruistically is that they will take advantage of us. That’s why we start in a small group that strives to annul selfishness and connect with others. We begin sensing a new reality in our common, benevolent, mutual desire.

Question: Will people of the future be completely different from our contemporaries as if they are aliens?

Answer: The only thing that will be different is their attitude to still, vegetative, animate and speaking levels. In the future, people will sense others as themselves.

But this is a gradual process. If we treat others altruistically now, they will simply take advantage of us. That’s why we open our hearts only to those who are ready to respond to us in the same way.

We should unite as one man with one heart. If we succeed, we’ll sense a new world through our joint desire and common heart.
