Question: Anti-Semitism always develops in a spiral. Relatively short periods of tranquil Jewish life alternate with outbreaks of anti-Semitism. For example, in 15^th century Spain, Jews assimilated successfully into Spanish society. Many of them were politicians and financiers close to the royal court. But at the peak of their positive impact on the country and positive contribution to society, they were expelled from Spain. How can this be explained?

Answer: As a rule, a society is managed by natural envy, not just envy but the resentment of the people, “Who governs us? Why is it bad for us? It is because rule by the foreigners is directed against us. They have no interest in the Spanish people!” It is clear that not only the people, but also all the elite, the courtiers, and the rich are also not interested in seeing and feeling foreigners among them.

But the surge in anti-Semitism is not attributable to the rise of the Jews and their activities. The fact that after their elevation comes a completely unpredictable decline relates to our overall program  and general historical development.

Initially, wherever Jews appeared in Spain, in Germany, England, or any other nation, the country came to life with their arrival. But as soon as they were forced to leave, even without taking anything with them, everything immediately declined. This is quite clear, and, in spite of this, there is no way to convince the leaders of some nation to retain the Jews so the nation would continue to flourish. Spain knew very well that with the departure of the Jews, it would be worse for them, abut still had to expel them.

Question: Why did a great blow always come following attempts to assimilate in a foreign society and the subsequent separation within the Jewish community?

Answer: This was completely natural because, if we don’t connect together and have great opposition between us, we don’t exist as a people. This law is completely clear. To the degree that we are connected and united, we are a unique spiritual force, and then we have nothing to fear. We need to be connected internally between us, like a single “spiritual fist,” a person to person connection, each one surrendering oneself to the others. That is how we connect among us, integrate together, wanting to feel ourselves as a single whole, as one family. Everyone thinks not about oneself but about the people in general and about how to serve them.

When there is mutuality between us like that, we bring good not only to the nation in which we live, but we also can protect ourselves from all problems. Then those nations where we have come and people within them look at us differently.

But it always ends up that we could not hold onto the state of connection that formed between us in the previous place we were expelled for long, and then the decline begins.

The moment that we are expelled from some nation, the hatred of the population compels us to connect together. We leave there “naked and barefoot.” We throw everything into the hands of fate, and this united us.

When we enter into another nation as a single united people, we truly infuse a vital higher power into it, but the moment we settle there, we begin to engage in making profits, entering into national and social institutions, and then the separation between us would immediately begin.

When we are poor and naked, we are all equal, but the moment that we get along in the nations of exile, we begin to separate and split apart. Who is higher; who is lower? So, the environment into which we try to merge influences us. It divides us according to level and direction. As we distance from each other, we lose the connection between us, and then hatred toward us flares up in that society. It would no longer feel that we were influencing it positively, and then the period that leads to another expulsion begins again.

The cause for all the expulsions of the Jewish people is only one: our separation. In each country we arrived internally united, spiritually united, so that we could occupy it spiritually: entered it and gave it our spiritual potential. Then, the nation would flourish. But once this action was made, it also gave rise to a connection with the people living there, and this would separate us from each other, which is what leads to the expulsion.

Question: Is there anyway out of the world’s conflicts?

Answer: There is no way out. The developed nations agree that people may kill each other, but not in their “garden,” somewhere further away, not in Europe, America, or Russia, but let’s say it is in the Middle East or in the Far East or Africa.

The challenge of Europe is to move the disputes and conflicts, their exacerbation and their so-called “solution” as far away from themselves as possible. The Americans feel and are trying to do the same thing; that is why they are heating up the military conflicts in Iraq, Yemen and other nations, so that instead of one world war, they arouse ten regional wars; that is how the world exists in the meantime.

Humanity constantly evolves, as it develops. It doesn’t build any long-term plans for itself, but designs everything so that tomorrow won’t be worse and that’s all. Those who manage the world understand how limited they are, and so what is important to them is not to get involved anywhere.

Ultimately, humanity will reach a situation where it will discover its absolute failure and will understand that it is inside the evolution of some forces of nature, that it doesn’t know how it is managed, and doesn’t know towards what they are heading.

In the past we agreed with this, and every day we tried to get along as well as we could. Whereas lately, we see how we have less and less influence on what is happening. There was a time when we thought that the Americans would run the world, but now they are coming down from the stage following the Europeans, the Russians, etc. This means that economic power doesn’t provide much in this case.

The world is looking for war. There is no other way it can get rid of the redundant mouths to feed or even mouths that are not redundant. This is the reason that the world welcomes wars. The Americans, for example, are proud that ten thousand ISIS members were killed in bombings in Syria in the last six months.

Military conflicts are started intentionally and we will see more and more of that in the future because of the sharp population growth and the need for a solution. This is the reason that humanity will aspire to annihilate as many as possible of those who simply take up space.

Europe is finally beginning to realize what a terrible mistake they made in allowing huge numbers of immigrants to enter its borders. How can this be corrected now? After all, we are not living in the Middle Ages now when people can simply be annihilated like on St. Bartholomew night. This is impossible!

The world is facing very serious problems and people are not looking for peace at all! Everyone realizes that something needs to be done, but it is impossible to solve anything in peaceful ways, and therefore we have no way of coping with the growing Islamic pressure on developed countries. This is the reason that the gradual overtaking of Europe, America, and Russia by Islam will continue. The only difference is that in Russia it will seep in through Tatarstan, Chechnya, and partly even though Turkey, while in Europe it will happen through North Africa and the Arab states. America will also be flooded by immigrants who will increase the mutual hatred through growing pressure. We see what is happening in the US now, what problems there are between the police and the blacks. This conflict is ignited on purpose. Humanity is not looking for peace. It realizes that it cannot exist that way.

Wandering in the desert is a very difficult internal state through which a person gradually grows.

The desert changes him from being a slave of the egoistic desire to being the ego’s master. This occurs in the 40 years of wandering in the desert. A person gradually ascends his ego, step by step and changes it into the attribute of bestowal.

It isn’t easy to cross the desert; this is man’s problem, and it must be overcome. This is the reason that the Torah ends with the crossing of the desert and entering into the land of Israel. That’s it! That’s all we need. We get the force we can advance onward correctly with.

But why doesn’t the Torah tell us how to fight and to conquer the land of Israel. After all, the spies said that seven nations live there. It is because it is futile to fight them. Today we live in the same way.

We were given a method that tells us how to absorb the Light of correction, but nothing more than that. It turns out that if you bring yourself to the land of Israel, it seems that you are left on your own afterward, because at this point you advance directly toward conquering the land of Israel, which means toward overcoming your true egoistic desire. Before that it was only the preparation. Now you enter your egoistic heart and begin to conquer it, to digest, and to process it into the attribute of love and bestowal.

In the past we built the First and the Second Temples, which were destroyed. Now after these two destructions, we have to build the Third Temple on the foundation of the first two. But we cannot build it alone, not only the nation of Israel. It has to be built by the whole world. This is the reason that it is so powerful and eternal. The Third Temple is the correction of the global egoistic desire that the Creator has created. The whole world must take part in it. It is like the prophet Ezekiel says: “The nations of the world will carry the children of Israel and bring them to Jerusalem,” which means that they will bring them to the necessity to build the Third Temple.

Question: Does this mean that the Third Temple will no longer be Jewish but international?

Answer: Yes. Today the world already begins to feel that all the problems come down to one intricate network, to something everyone shares: if you pull the string everything will fall apart just like a house of cards. If there is a small problem in some part on the globe, it is immediately echoed all over the world. The world becomes more mutually connected every day so that we will begin to realize that we have to find a global solution to the problem and we are not prepared for it. Our role is to bring humanity to the understanding of how to be ready to face this new situation.

A Jew is a person who choses transitioning from this world, the lowest step of the Universe, to a higher degree as his purpose in life.

“Jew” derives from the words “Laavor” and “ever” which means “transitional.”

In my opinion, not all representatives of our people are “Jews” even though historically they possess a special, inner potential, which has not been implemented. They are “sleeping” Jews.

But judging by the conscious actions, it is possible to say that our students belong to the category of Jews. Others are still in a “stand-by” state. They have to be awakened.

Comment: Historians began to speak about the appearance of anti-Semitism not long before the destruction of the second Temple. But even before then a particular hostility toward the Jews existed. But true anti-Semitism appeared specifically at the moment that the Jews began to scatter all over the world.

Answer: Anti-Semitism appeared when the Jews shattered the good connections between them. Hatred towards them appeared precisely at this moment because they stopped being the source of good in the world.

As long as they were connected, the good force reached the world through them. The moment that they lost this connection in the time of Rabbi Akiva, in the period of the destruction of the second Temple, the world began to sink into darkness, and simultaneously hatred towards the Jews began to increase.

And rightly so, because when we don’t carry out our role, we convey a force to the world that unites them in common hatred towards us. But if we connect and unite above all the contradictions between us, we guide humanity towards the good.

Unconsciously the nations of the world demand the Kabbalistic method from us. This even began in ancient Babylon when we disconnected from the rest through our method of existence and seeing the structure of the world and its purpose.

We began to perceive the system of nature from within ourselves as it truly is, and we began to feel that there are two opposing forces found in nature: positive and negative. Both forces come from the same source, but awaken relative to us as different. Thus, we can work with them,  and with their help learn about the part of nature that is concealed from us called the upper world, the system of management, and enter into it so that we are influenced by it through our mutual action. And it already is influencing the entire world.

But there is a problem. If we influence the entire system of management correctly and it influences the world, we seem to bless all of humanity. But if we influence it incorrectly, not connecting between us sufficiently, then ultimately we have a bad influence on the world. In other words, it appears that we are to “run the world”.

Comment: So the influence of the Jews on the world is not done directly, but through the influence of the higher power?

Answer: It is not important how it is implemented. The main thing is that the nations of the world feel their dependence on the Jews, and this is what they cannot tolerate! And if things are bad for them, then we are to blame! This is the source of hatred, because the world is in a terrible condition. And the Jews are always guilty because they have the possibility of influencing the world through a higher power that they don’t understand: It has no image, it is impossible to perceive, it is impossible to appease, it is impossible to bring it a sacrifice, it is impossible to do anything with it.

So how is it possible to at least get along somehow? There is no way!

The Wisdom For The Existence Of The Jewish People

In the News (russian-bazaar.com): “The times when the Jewish community in the US was Israel’s supportive shield are gone. From now on,  they side with ‘liberal values,’ which are in contrast to the existence of the Jewish state.

“The voice of the American Jewry was unheard during the heated debate about the agreement with Iran. They voted for Obama, who is the embodiment of the liberal ideology and the positive outlook, twice. The Jewish organizations are at the forefront of Obama’s lawyers, and are involved in everything regarding the ‘peace process.’ Some of them do not settle for simply supporting him but also support the New Israel Foundation that subsidizes dozens of ‘human rights’ organizations that engage in defaming the IDF and Israel.

“They argue that Israel shouldn’t object to the agreement with Iran, so as not to subject the American Jews to accusations of double loyalty. The leader of the American Jewish community, Rav Steven Wiess held the same position during WWII, when he didn’t want to bother president Roosevelt with complaints about the sufferings of the Jews in Europe!

“Although the left wing sector, J Street, presents itself as the protector of the Israeli interests, it always sides with the Palestinians thus demanding Obama to put pressure on Israel. The founder of J. Street, Daniel Levi, called the foundation of Israel ‘a step after which everything began to go wrong,’ while at the same time J. Street supports anti Israeli activity on campuses.

“It is hard to believe, but it is actually people who have an Israeli nationality who are behind the crusades against Israel. The dispute in the Jewish community is already spreading among those who argue for a compromise and those who negate the right of Israel to exist. Young Jewish people on campuses are poisoned by the atmosphere of hate towards Israel, just like their peers. It is all because Israel today is challenging the liberal values of American Jews.

“The American publicist Jonathan Rosenblum wrote that for most American Jews Israel has become a hazard and a liability that stands in their way of living peacefully and they would be glad to get rid of it. He says that if the American Jews woke up one day and discovered that Israel has disappeared from the world map they would feel great relief and satisfaction.”

My Comment: I believe that the American Jews want to bury their heads in the sand, but as we have already seen in the past, we will be beaten indiscriminately, regardless of any opinions one might have. Only unity and connection can save our nation and the world.

Question: Why is it that throughout history the Jews have been hated so much?

Answer: In different times, various excuses have been cited. After all, the Jews weren’t always accused like they are today for running the world, manipulating everyone through the banks, and enslaving humanity this way. In the past, it was rumored that they were starving people, sending all kinds of infectious diseases, causing corruption and the evil eye, etc. In general, to every normal person it is clear that the Jews had some kind of secret that is impossible to grasp in any way, even if you were to grab them and strongly shake them. It isn’t clear, but they have something of the source that is unusual, and what is unusual is the fact that the Jewish people have succeeded in existing for so many thousands of years.

There are even various theories about their creation. They are different from the rest in that supposedly they came to Earth from a distant star or were created from a different type of ape, etc. There are a multitude of reasons for not liking Jews, and if some kind of negative event happens in the world, then it is always possible to pin this on them. On one hand, it is easy to make them a scapegoat, but on the other hand, there is really something about them that makes people feel that they are to blame for everything.

Among the nations of the world, this is a natural feeling. Suppose that I am not a Jew. I look at them and feel that they have something that we don’t have. It is not clear what it is, but it is there. How can one fight against this? What can one do with it? I don’t know.

The Jewish religion, even though it is the foundation of all religions, is directed against them for some reason. Christians, Muslims, Hindus, and Confucians, all of them, are centered on themselves, whereas, for some reason, the Jews have a relationship with everything.

The Inside Information of the Jews

Question: All people who become dispersed among other peoples must disappear after three generations according to geopolitical laws. Only the Jewish people have held onto their position for not only three generations but for 2,000 years in exile. On one hand, for the length of their existence itself, and on the other hand, the hatred of humanity toward them makes the Jewish people something illogical. Where does this irrational hatred come from?

Answer: From the point of view of the wisdom of Kabbalah, it is because in some way we truly are the source of evil for all of humanity. We have a remedy through which we can make everyone happy, and we not only don’t give it to others, but we also haven’t discovered it ourselves because we don’t know that we are the ones who possess this remedy. The idea is that the method for acquiring happiness is concealed within us and is kept as inside information, as something that could be revealed to the world.

This method has been latent in us from the beginning. We became a people based upon it. Around three and a half thousand years ago in ancient Babylon, we became detached from all of humanity and gathered together to the call of Abraham, “Whoever wants to understand the meaning of life, the essence of what is happening with us, what stopped us from understanding each other and why we built the Tower of Babel, whoever feels that salvation can only be through connection and consolidation, come with me!” That is how we consolidated around him. Moreover, Abraham gathered representatives of completely different tribes who didn’t understand each other and didn’t know what to do. But he explained what was happening to this mixed audience, and he showed them how it is possible to rise above the separation, above the hatred, above all the differences, and connect into a single whole, and this single whole became the Jewish people.

Question: Now, do we carry a genetic memory of this unity within us?

Answer: This is not just a genetic memory. It is a program that plays within us. We are connected to each other according to a particular algorithm, and from our connection, we have understood somehow that it is necessary to continue to develop the idea of mutual connection even though, at every moment, we really want to get out of it.

Question: So were those people who followed Abraham drawn toward this unity?

Answer: They understood through their inner sense that there is a method for salvation here because all of Babylon was in a terrible state and humanity dispersed throughout the world. In his historical writings, Flavius Josephus described in which directions all the various tribes (clans) scattered. Some went east, others to the north, to the south, and so forth, becoming the foundation for the present civilization. However, Abraham gathered tens of thousands around him who had the same outlook and actively showed them how to connect based upon the method of connection circles.

These were practical lessons that included all of the nuances of their common life within them. Abraham took them out of Babylon and led them to the land of Canaan (present day Israel), and with their adaptation to this land, it also was called the “House of Abraham.” They were engaged constantly with connection because, every day, every moment, the aspiration to scatter again appeared in them. After the ego grew in them, rejection constantly flared up between them, and they needed to connect again. So, their method constantly became more sophisticated, despite and thanks to the development of the egoism within them.

Opinion (Aristarh Rabinovich): “A year or two ago a political revolution developed in the communications media about the involvement of the police in many ‘scandals’ regarding the use of unnecessary force, sexual harassment, excessive violence and so forth. And so naïve people believe all of these slanders, and as a result, the population is beginning to support the ‘revolutionaries’ who are destroying the nation. A few months of riots in the streets and there will be no nation.

“And suddenly it became Israel’s turn. As if on command, in the Israeli news appeared about ‘police lawlessness.’ They had seen that it was not okay to apply pressure on Israel from the outside. Shooting attacks only consolidate the society against an external enemy. So the United States went in another direction: the United States is preparing a diplomatic coup in Israel, dividing and splitting the society through national disputes and differences. The Americans very much need to oust the rebellious Netanyahu, who is leading Israel towards independence from the United States.”

My Comment: I think that whether this is correct or not, we can stand against any threat and win only if we are united. When we unite, the unique power of unity appears among us, the Ohr Makif (Surrounding Light), the Upper Light, which shields us and transforms enemies into friends. Everything depends on us!
