Anti-Semitism Raises Its Head In The United States

When I visited Los Angeles late last year, I gave an interview on the subject of anti-Semitism to the magazine Israeli Week, which is targeted to Israelis living in the United States. Here are excerpts from the published article.

In the world there are many anti-Semitic incidents, but the greatest and most powerful anti-Semitism that we have ever known will break out specifically in America. This will happen soon, and the Jews there will have nowhere to escape. The flame has already broken out on the university campuses, and this is only the beginning.

In interviews and speeches throughout the world, Dr. Laitman warns the Jews about being too frivolous while the land is already burning under their feet.

– Is it possible that seven million Jews and a million Israelis living in the United States today don’t understand events around them?

– Precisely so. This is happening right under their noses, but they don’t understand the extent of the problem. In the University of California in Los Angeles, a branch of the Students for Justice in Palestine, tried to compel the Student Council candidates not to go on a subsidized trip to Israel. The AASA academic association unanimously approved the boycott of Israeli universities.’

At the University of Michigan they called the pro-Israel students “dirty Jews.” And recently a professor at Temple University cast doubt about the death of the six million Jews in the Holocaust to encourage the community for an academic boycott of Israel. And this is only a small portion of examples that reflect this spirit that is only going to intensify.

– The Jews and the Israelis in the United States feel safe. The economy is flourishing, there is no threat of terrorism or any military threat, they live in peace and quiet.

– So what? Germany was also an advanced nation in which Jews held key positions and it seemed that they were secure. Six million people were murdered in the Holocaust, and German anti-Semitism was nothing compared to the anti-Semitism that will break out in the United States. It will be much more difficult and painful.

It is not pleasant for Jews to deal with the truth. However, these are not just horror stories, this is truly terrifying. The land of Israel is the only refuge to which they are meant to reach. And this would be preferable sooner than later. They don’t have time to waste. The Jews in the United States must understand that the Americans will not protect them; one cannot rely on this. In fact, the Jews there are putting themselves in a situation like Auschwitz.

In any case, the anti-Semitism will do the work. Soon it will put pressure on the Jews throughout the world to come to Israel. I know that at the moment it is just about impossible to convince them, but the pressure will begin much sooner than they think.

-So what is the solution? I suppose that now you will turn me towards the wisdom of Kabbalah?

– Yes, only in the wisdom of Kabbalah is there a foundation that will lead to a solution. The wisdom of Kabbalah – is a science that reveals how the world is managed and how we, humans, must act within it to influence this system. If we don’t work on the system in which we live, then we are like wild animals – subject to control, and advancing like lambs to the slaughter.

So it is up to us to investigate and understand how this system around us works with the help of the wisdom of Kabbalah. Then we will take the “reins” into our hands and can influence what is happening. Only after a person takes the “reins” into his hands, does he get freedom of choice.

– Do you have an explanation for anti-Semitism that can lead to a solution, which until now many others have not found?

– Recently I met with a world-renowned scholar who studies the phenomenon of anti-Semitism. He said to me that in his study he didn’t find an answer to this question. He only understands that anti-Semitism is irrational. In regard to hatred of Jews, this doesn’t ever happen in regard to any other nation.

We are even hated by people with whom we never had contact. Researchers see these phenomena, but don’t investigate them in depth. They don’t understand the causes and the effects, they don’t know if it is possible to soften them and how it would be possible to do this.

The wisdom of Kabbalah takes us back to Abraham. The Creator asked Abraham for Israel to become a “Light to the Nations” through the principle, “And you shall love your friend as yourself.” What happened in Babylon is happening to us today all over the world. So there was a small group of people living in the world who felt that they were all connected with each other. However, their ego rose up to the heavens and this led to hatred between them.

They found two approaches for getting out of this situation. The popular approach was to move away from each other and settle in different places. But the approach of Abraham, who was known as a great spiritual leader, was different. He claimed that it was necessary to come closer to each other, and to be based upon love instead of hatred. He taught his group to live with love – so that love would rise above the hatred and would not give the ego the ability to manage it. This group became the people of Israel.

However, through the years, the ego rose again, and again unfounded hatred broke out until everything fell apart. And then we found ourselves in spiritual and physical exile, and since then we became distant from each other.

– Ego and love – is this all that there is? This seems like too simple an explanation.

– And we don’t need more. If there is no love, we are not a people; instead we are a group that doesn’t know in the name of what it exists. So we “merited” the hatred from all people.

Love is a “spice” that must be added to the evil inclination to “spice up” the ego. Love is what we must give to the nations, for this is what they are waiting for.

The nations of the world claim that the Jews control the world and all evil comes from them. If so, they are found in the hands of the Jews, and only the Jews can change the world. What the nations don’t understand is that we cannot disappear. They still don’t want to acknowledge this.

And so first of all it is necessary to hate the people of Israel, and it is up to us to shorten this process as much as possible. With the help of the wisdom of Kabbalah, we can transform the hatred into love and to convey it further to the rest of the world.

– How can one eliminate the ego?

– My ego is not under my control. I only know that it is not possible to destroy or reduce it, it can only continue to grow more and more. When we “spice up” the evil inclination, the ego, through devotion to love of others, then it is possible to “eat” the ego instead of being strangled by it.

Today we are living in a “small global village”, and we are prepared to convey this message to the world. When we become a leading group, we can change our destiny, as well as influence the anti-Semitism.

While we are not doing this, a new Holocaust will continue to approach us with giant steps. We will reach what happened in Germany seventy years ago – only this time on a larger scale and with greater force, all over the world, in which simultaneously it will be decided to exterminate the Jews.

This is not just a grim prophecy. This is a reality that is being revealed here and now.

Right-Wing Extremism In Europe, Part 9

Laitman_727Who Is The First?

Question: If the financial and economic union of the European Union for the sake of profit showed failure in meeting its obligations, what is the essence of the right union?

Answer: It is the creation of a single family. Then, we feel ourselves as people living on a small planet, in a small village that must be organized in such a form to align the standards of living and ensure the optimal standards of living for everyone.

This is because, today, the population of the Western world is essentially living luxuriously as compared to the majority who are suffering from poverty and hunger. So. let’s take care of our “ball.”

Question: If we truly want to feel ourselves as one family, will we receive the power of connection that is latent in nature?

Answer: Yes, and so the time has arrived for explaining to all people where we are living, in what kind of system, in what conditions, and under the action of which laws. We desperately need education, a program of integral education, a learning bench for humanity, until it washes its conservative and rigid consciousness and becomes permeated with a new approach, for everyone is suffering. All of us are sometimes on the threshold of despair. Hatred is increasing, the institution of the family is collapsing, and we are deteriorating without knowing where.

All of this must be explained, chewed for people, and they must be given a solution, a new direction that will make it possible for them to be saved.

Question: Is there at least one nation in Europe today that is capable of achieving the emotional intensity great enough to want to be a single family? In my opinion, the Europeans are very far from this.

Answer: Right, but on the other hand, it is specifically this that makes it possible to explain the current situation to them in comparison to that state that the law of nature demands. In spite of it all, it is bringing them closer against their will and pushing them toward connection.

So, the gap between the present differences and the required union will bring war if they continue to oppose the process of the interests of nature. Gradually, we will begin to push them to an understanding of the hopelessness of the current situation in light of which they must still change in spite of it all.

Question: In general, in what place on the face of the Earth is it easiest to awaken people so that they will want to become a single family and would summon the unifying force of nature?

Answer: According to the order of the correction of the world, first of all, we, the people of Israel, must go through this examination, and this will influence the entire world. If we begin to build priorities in this direction, then we will become an example for everyone, and no one will be able to ignore this, shut their eyes and remain indifferent, not a single nation and not a single person.

If we neglect the changes toward the direction of union, then this message will penetrate everywhere. The headlines of the news media will cry out. After all, the Jewish people are always the target, always the center of world attention, and so, through the right example, we will do the work. I have no doubt that Israel must be the first to embark on this path.

Today, they hate us specifically because subconsciously they feel that we are evaders and avoiders, and are not showing the right example. Ultimately, all of the negative processes are designed to awaken us to connection and union.

Pressure Of Seven Billion

laitman_941Question: What is the role of the external part with regard to the internal part?

Answer: The external part is meant to put pressure on the internal part. This is actually what builds the mutual connection between Galgalta ve Eynaim and AHP.

Galgalta ve Eynaim are vessels of bestowal and they don’t want anything for themselves. They have no needs if it isn’t for bestowing unto someone below them. Their state with regard to the Creator is called Hafetz Hesed and they are incapable of more.

It says, “the fewest of all the nations.” What is more, this doesn’t refer to quantity, not to the 15 million representatives of the Israeli nation in the world, but to the fact that we don’t have a strong enough desire.

This is the reason that Israel are few and cannot advance. I simply don’t want to ascend; I don’t feel any need for that. Even if I do feel the need to do so, it is only when I have a reason to or someone to do it for, and if I have the means to do so. The Israeli nation cannot do anything by itself. This is the reason that the pressure of the nations of the world is necessary. Moreover, it has to be great, in the form of the pressure of seven billion on 15 million. We need this Aviut (thickness) of the desire because it will force us to raise the ultimate request, MAN, and to bring everyone to the end of correction.

We will not be able to overcome otherwise. We are unable to want more for ourselves and even the study doesn’t turn us into Galgalta ve Eynaim. We format the complete vessels of Galgalta ve Eynaim in order to help AHP, but if I don’t set it as a goal from the beginning, I will not even be given the state of Hafetz Hesed.

Hafetz Hesed means that I am between the vessels of receiving and the vessels of bestowal and that I want to bestow and to help and am ready to burst from the bestowal that fills me like a cow that bursts with milk and has no one to give it to…

This is the reason that Galgalta ve Eynaim doesn’t grow without AHP. Therefore, the wide dissemination we do, during which we meet the desires of the AHP, and it makes no difference which desires, will push us to connect and to unite. We already know that from our earlier experience.

Nothing is more helpful than troubles, but instead of waiting for real troubles, we absorb the troubles and problems of others.

The Truth About The Boycott Of Israel, Part 1

What Are The Nations That Populate Me?

Laitman_167Baal HaSulam, “Introduction to The Book of Zohar,” Item 66: Bear in mind that in everything there is internality and externality. In the world in general, Israel, the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, are considered the internality of the world, and the seventy nations are considered the externality of the world. Also, there is internality within Israel themselves, which are the wholehearted workers of the Creator, and there is externality—those who do not devote themselves to the work of the Creator.

Abraham is the right line of the spiritual development and Isaac is the left line. They reach a state of the middle line, Jacob, and then they even reach a level of greatness called Israel. At the end, they are already arranged in the direction of Yashar-El (straight to the Creator). All the desires that are not arranged according to the three lines, in smallness and in greatness (Jacob and Israel) are called the nations of the world. This is the total desire that was created and this is how it is divided into two parts.

Later every level is divided into two parts: Galgalta ve Eynaim and AHP. Accordingly the upper internal part is called Israel and the lower external part is called the nations of the world. Thus, there is a certain ratio between them.

Israel receive the awakening, the urge that leads straight to the Creator, while the nations of the world don’t receive the urge to reveal the Creator and to be incorporated in Him and adhere to Him yet.

“Also, there is internality in every person from Israel—the Israel within, which is the point in the heart, and externality, which is the inner ‘nations of the world,’ the body itself. But even the inner nations of the world in that person are considered proselytes, since by cleaving to the internality, they become like proselytes from among the ‘nations of the world,’ that came and cleaved to the whole of Israel.”

AHP and Galgalta ve Eynaim are in the same ten Sefirot, but lower desires cannot work with the intention of in order to bestow and to be called Israel yet. They are under a restriction, but they are not the nations of the world anymore, which means that they don’t yearn for different things, they want to enjoy in different ways anymore. No, they prefer to be under a restriction and are therefore called foreigners. This is the term for the average between the nations of the world and Israel.

The desires of the phase of Israel are aimed straight at the Creator. They are already restricted and have a Masach (screen) and the Returning Light (Ohr Hozer), and they work with the intention of in order to bestow. On the other hand, the desires of the phase of the nations of the world are a vessel (Kli) that are not corrected yet, and that still have an Aviut (thickness), that have not been restricted and has no Masach or the Returning Light. There are desires that are in the middle “proselytes,” which are already restricted but cannot bestow yet.

These three types of vessels can be in the same person: sometimes the vessel in which you want to bestow is revealed in you; sometimes you cannot bestow but you don’t want to receive, and sometimes you don’t care about bestowal and you only want to receive.

These vessels are not revealed all at the same time. Suppose you want to eat and sleep, what do you prefer? To eat and then to sleep? It turns out that one comes before the other and there cannot be two desires at the same time, although they may both be in the right direction. There is always one whole desire.

This means that everything in the world and this whole world is divided into two parts: into internality and externality. This system includes all of humanity and is divided into smaller and smaller elements, which are of the exact same composition, as all the parts are always in the same ratio according to the same principle. The phase of Israel in a person is connected to the light of Infinity and is therefore important.

Laitman_421_01Eliminating The Incompatibility In One Separate State

Question: You speak about the need of uniting the whole nation into one family, but isn’t this the dream of the extremist right wing in Europe: “We are one family, and they are not!”?

Answer: The problem of the extremist right wing is that it puts its nation in a special position, above the other nations. Here, on the other hand, we don’t speak about being superior to others but about unity among the people, so why not?

If I am French, for example, other countries don’t interest me; France is quite enough for me and I don’t want those who are not considered French to live in it. What is more being French is a matter of culture and not nationality.

They may be Belgian and even Jews but as long as we have one general unified culture and a common perspective, France is our common state and we accept its constitution and its laws, its customs, its norms, and its language.

Thus, if a certain sector intensifies this unity, it makes no difference if he is from the right, the left, or the center of the political map, this attitude is good as long as it isn’t fulfilled at the expense of other countries. I don’t look at others. I simply want my state to live in peace and harmony, to be happy and to prosper.

What’s wrong with that? A person worries about his country and wants his people to live as one family, and even if he lacks the wide perspective or the moral powers to worry about the citizens of other countries and even if it is called nationalism, it is in a good sense. He isn’t a chauvinist and doesn’t hate others and foreigners. He only cares about his own people but not at the expense of others.

It is true that in this case the country is unwilling to be part of organizations like the current EU, but it is actually unnecessary to be part of them. First, the specific nation undergoes a new form of education, aspiring for equality, unity, and a general common standard of living that everyone accepts. People gradually absorb new values and already wish to attain some equal optimal average basket of basic goods and services for everyone.

We don’t measure everyone by the same standard, of course. A comfortable life can still mean different things to different people to some extent, but on the whole the differences are small and merely a social act and not a social abyss as we see today.

Question: Will the extremist right wing be more successful if they accept such an approach?

Answer: Of course, but in order to do so the law has to be changed in the right direction. On the whole, all the citizens of the state have to accept the state culture and they have to be French, for example, regardless of any religious faith. A person has to be loyal to country he lives in.

African Americans in the US, for example, do not act against their country. They actually feel that they are Americans. They have conflicts with other sectors but they live in their homeland.

Accordingly, even if you are Muslim living in Europe, you have to be loyal to the country you live in, since otherwise you will be denied the right to live there.

Question: Is this kind of national unity a precondition for global unity?

Answer: No, but now we are speaking about a specific region, about European states where the tension between different sectors is growing and with regard to that a unified Europe is not yet part of the agenda. We can speak about economic and military cooperation, but this isn’t unity, only cooperation based on contracts.

On the other hand, true unity symbolizes the transition to family relations. It is much more intense, intimate, deep, and comprehensive when all of Europe actually becomes the common home of all its inhabitants. But they are unable to achieve that today because they are very far from it.

United Nations Resolution: Israel Is The Only Nation In The World That Is Violating Economic And Social Rights

laitman_272In the News (mixednews.ru): “According to a post of UNWatch, that includes 54 nations, the Economic and Social Council of the United Nations passed a resolution that declared that the nation of Israel is the only violator of economic and social rights in the world.

“The United States resolution accuses Israel of crimes like ‘the destruction of homes and property, economic institutions, farmland and gardens in the occupied Palestinian territory, including East Jerusalem as well as in the occupied Syrian territories in the Golan,’ the ‘exploitation of natural resources’ and the ‘disposal of all kinds of garbage in the occupied Palestinian territory, including East Jerusalem and in the occupied Syrian territory in the Golan, which seriously threatens ecological safety.’

“Hamas is not mentioned even once. Syria is mentioned 13 times, but only in the denunciation of Israel for ‘alleged’ violations against citizens in the occupied Syrian territories in the Golan whose relatives live on land in the Syrian Arab Republic. The bloody regime of Assad is not even mentioned. No other nation in the world except Israel was denounced at the annual socioeconomic meeting of the United Nations.”

My Comment: And I understand them! For nature, meaning the Creator, speaks through them, teaching us through the nations of the world about our situation, which requires urgent correction, by really approaching “and you shall love your neighbor as yourself.” Only by approaching this value will the nations of the world not only turn to us with friendship, but also with love and a readiness to help everyone, advancing the entire world towards its best future, as it is said, “…and all nations shall flow unto it” (Isaiah 2:2). In spite of everything, we must reach such a state, either by the way of suffering or through a conscious approach.

The Race of Anti-Semitism

Laitman_121From the News (cursorinfo.co.il): “The organizers of Holocaust Memorial Day in Ireland have banned the use of the term ‘Jewish State’ and ‘State of Israel.’ Shortly before that, Belfast authorities removed the plate that gave mention to the late Chaim Herzog from the house where he was born. He was a former President of the State of Israel.

“The modern day anti-Zionists of today don’t talk about going to war, they speak of peace, but they demand concessions only from Israel. They do not become angered that the terrorists hide their weapons in hospitals and schools and people’s homes, but blame Israel for disproportional defense, and compare Nazi Germany to Israel.

“Today European countries started the race on recognizing the Palestinian State, a state that never existed, and whose nation always belonged to the Arab nations.

“The Palestinian project was designed and developed as resistance against Israel, and is designed to eliminate Israel. They didn’t succeed in a military way. Today we see the appearance of a legal war. They are trying to remove Israel from its rights and declare an economic blockade on Israel.”

My Comment: Everything is correct, but the issue is that only we are able to correct this situation. And all the nations of the world search for and will continue to search for our destruction. That is nature’s law, and there is nothing to hate them for. We only need to understand that it is in our power to direct history into a good direction.

I wrote about this in the article, “Who Are You People of Israel?”  that was published in the New York Times.

The Elections Continue

laitman_229After the results of the election reached the Knesset in Israel, the social networks presented two strong feelings that were held by the people: happiness and rejoicing from victory and hard disappointment from defeat.

A Divided People

In the recent elections 26 parties participated: How can such a small country have so many parties and opinions?

Even if this is good, it is good only if there is something that unites us into one people. But we see that this is not happening.

Those Who Fell Into Hatred

Within the nation there stands an essential problem: How is it possible to find the right base among us, a reliable common denominator? This will be possible only if we begin to balance the power of the ego that arouses disputes, separation and internal wars between us with the power of love. This is latent in our people and we lived according to its laws before the destruction of the Second Temple, which was destroyed because of unfounded hatred. So we fell from the level of love to hatred, and today, with the end of the exile, we must rise again from unfounded hatred to love between us. Only in this way will we create a situation in which nobody will want to go away from here and everyone will live in peace, in happiness, and in security.

That is how it has always been; only union is what saved us. From the start our people were founded on the union of people who were strangers to each other in ancient Babylon, under the authority and leadership of Abraham. That is how the people lived and existed, in conditions of union and love above hatred, according to the principle, “love covereth all transgressions” (Proverbs 10:12).

Put an End to Division

Even today it is up to us to understand how to establish bridges between us and overcome mutual hatred with the help of love. Only in this way can we continue on the way. I very much hope that this message will be heard by both these and those, that the right part of the population will not yield to strong euphoria, and the left to strong disappointment. For the moment of truth has arrived, but we don’t see where we are.

The next step is a necessary step from our perspective; this is the union of the people above all these differences and contradictions, above the distances, the isolation, and mutual hatred. Struggles have already occurred in our history and we must not allow a situation like this now. This weakens us and threatens us with terrible consequences, which are not even desirable to think about.

The wisdom of Kabbalah tells us that we can’t even be sure of another exile, for the former traditional ties no longer connect and bind us to each other as they did in the past. And so we must now find a means, a method, that will connect all the ends of the spectrum and consolidate us into a single people. It is necessary to rise above the views of the right and the left to a state of a single people. There fulfillment and wholeness is to be found, in it everyone will feel wholeness. It is incumbent upon us and it is possible. I very much hope that the people will begin to reflect and think about this.

First of all, it is necessary to understand that there is no other way out, that the former approach has exhausted itself. It is not worthwhile to close accounts with the past, let’s direct our view towards the future. This is the method and this is the only situation in which all of us can exist from now on.

Right-Wing Extremism In Europe, Part 1

Laitman_419Right-Wing Extremism Rears Its Head

Question: In Europe, extreme nationalism is becoming more and more popular, carrying xenophobia, neo-Nazism, and opposition to the single European Union with it. Recently, right-wing radical politicians celebrated a big victory in the European Parliament elections.

For the first time, considerable representation was received by a sector that opposes immigration and at times neighboring with neo-Nazi ideology, if not supports it.

The French Front National alone, led by Marine Le Pen, won 24 seats in the European Parliament. The extremely right-wing Progress Party of Norway received over 16% of the votes. The Finns Party won 18%, and the Dutch far-right took 10%. The same processes are taking place in Austria, Hungary, and other countries.

Analysts and commentators cite three main reasons:

  1. High rate of unemployment, leaving many young people without work.
  2. The economic crisis sweeping the entire European continent.
  3. Disappointment with previous policies that failed to meet expectations.

Overall, we see how the difficult situation is leading to intensification of far-right sentiments. How exactly does this mechanism work? How do troubles and hardships in different realms cause people to believe that this particular segment of the political spectrum will help them?

Answer: I think that the right-wing concepts appeal to Europeans. After all, they propose taking care of themselves, not immigrants: “We have no work, we have reduced social subsidies; why should we take care of outsiders?” If we used them to perform certain jobs for a set period of time, that is another matter. However, instead, most of them settle in the country and do not bother with employment.

In many European cities, this became a familiar scene: In the middle of the day, streets were full of people from immigrant backgrounds. They passed the time idly while native Europeans were working. So, why should they take them in and pay them money?

In addition, many are unhappy with the clash of civilizations, saying that they are against our culture, against our educational system. They do not want to learn from us, to become like us, to integrate into our society. They are generally repulsed by absorption into the European environment. So, why are they in Europe?

I personally asked such questions decades ago when the United Kingdom first opened its borders to immigrants from its former colonies. It was entirely incomprehensible to me what Europeans were rejoicing about as they received people who were extremely distant from Europe in their mentality. A symbol of goodwill is one thing, but a door wide open for the sake of partisan goals within the framework of political struggle is something else entirely.

While parties coming to power worried about their own reputation and preempted any criticism in their direction, the influx of immigrants kept expanding. Eventually, millions of new citizens filled large cities, staking out entire neighborhoods and establishing their own order at times in place of police who prefer to bypass these areas. Mosques are being built, Muslim holidays celebrated, and an entirely different spirit brought from their countries of origin reigns there.

In America, the coexistence of different nationalities originally was built on different principles. The United States was created as a “melting pot” where everyone intermingled among themselves and formed the American culture, albeit around an Anglo-Saxon core. At its foundation lay the element of pioneering, conquest, and development of new lands, an entirely different message.

Europe, however, with its ancient culture, has taken in people who disregard it completely. Therefore, there is a grain of truth to the current right-wing movements. They want to protect their homeland, their country, and their children to whom they would prefer to give the resources that are currently spent on immigrants. In short, there are many fair premises in their claims, and they certainly will intensify more and more.

As long as they remain within the law, I do not see what they can be accused of. What are they wrong? Is it in the fact that they do not want to accept immigrants and pay for them? Must they be responsible for that? Where is it written? Someone is gaining political capital from this, all the while, after climbing to power, extracting personal gain from it. So, why should Norway, Sweden, and other countries be filled with immigrants when they lived for hundreds and thousands of years in a “frozen” state? Meanwhile, Europe opened its doors, and this process has gained momentum.

Question: Can we say that history is repeating itself? Before World War II, there was an economic crisis and masses of people could not find work. It became a “remarkable” basis for the rise of fascism.

Answer: If in today’s Europe everyone were working and immigrants also joined the labor force so that production would grow and contribute to prosperity, then the cries of right-wing radicalism would have no place.

However, there is a shortage of jobs and social budgets are being cut. Moreover, they are cut in such a way that the funds flow from native citizens to new ones, and people do not agree with this.

In addition, the inability to establish proper international relations is playing a role here as well. The initiators of European unification expected economic benefits from it, but failed to consider basing this unity of nations on a common culture, common education, and overall on a common foundation. After all, the European Union is not just a word; it should stand for a certain united territory, a common reserve, a joint socio-cultural space.

Today’s Europe, however, has nothing of the sort. Banks? Industry? They barely cope with the role of unifiers when they are able to demonstrate momentary benefits. Of course such unity is destined to become a fiasco and only provides all the more reason for the rise of the far right.

To be continued…

Wars: Worldly Or Spiritual?

laitman_570Question: What can the Islamic neighbors of Israel bring?

Answer: The idea is that even among the prophets it is indicated that at the end of the world, when humanity will need to rise to the next level, to the next dimension, the engine of this process will be the Arabs. This will be revealed in the end of history and they will start great wars on land, in the air, and in the sea.

Unfortunately, since all of humanity and the people of Israel bear great egoism, so the connection between them can only be egoistic. And this is what war symbolizes; with egoism there can be no other connection. So mutual connection between peoples must be discovered before their correction, realized through a process involving several wars. These could be physical wars and they could be spiritual wars. On the spiritual level they will happen much more rapidly, without blood, without destruction and reconstruction. But for this there must be leadership of this process; this is what the people of Israel need to take upon themselves.

If we can connect among us, and with this connection and union put ourselves against the whole world, that is how we will provide it with an example; then there will be wars between the forces of Light and darkness on an ideological level in the form of explanations and discussions, but not in the form of physical war. In the opposite case, this will be a long, drawn out process with much suffering. But this creates a problem; how do we reach this? The idea is not with representatives of Christianity or Islam, but only with the people of Israel, how much they can unite presenting themselves as a single complete unit and show the world an example of union. And when it proclaims this, then all of the clashes will subside.
