New Life #302 – Interrelationships In Nature, Part 2

New Life #302 – Interrelationships In Nature, Part 2
Dr. Michael Laitman in conversation with Oren Levi and Nitzah Mazoz

Summary

Competition is leading human society into a total crisis. We are evolving toward mutual destruction rather than happiness based on connection. Our development is negative because the biggest egoist wins in today’s society. Only one can be “king” while the rest suffer pressures and stress. In the future, competition will be based on doing good for the whole society. We will learn how to use the ego and our free choice properly toward positive outcomes that benefit everyone.

New Life #301 – Interrelationships In Nature, Part 1

New Life #301 – Interrelationships In Nature, Part 1
Dr. Michael Laitman in conversation with Oren Levi and Nitzah Mazoz

Summary

In nature, development is based on a prey and predator dynamic since everything lives by consuming the others. Parasites, for example, consume their hosts just as a baby takes what it needs from its mother. Humans are more sophisticated predators because we have a sense of self, a “private ego” that distinguishes the individual from everyone else. Hatred only exists in humans. We depend on one another while we simultaneously want to destroy each other.

New Life #289 – A Solution To The Global Employment Problem

New Life #289 – A Solution To The World Employment Problem
Dr. Michael Laitman in conversation with Oren Levi and Yael Leshed-Harel

Summary

The world is facing an economic crisis and the labor market is about to undergo far reaching changes. What is required of us socially, economically and politically and how will integral education help us?

Today, for the first time in the evolution of the human race, a person is required to change himself, to be upgraded. The modern person will need to learn how to feel happy without working for a living and without exhausting all of the natural resources. This person will learn to value relationships more than the unnecessary consumption of goods and services.

New Life #288 – The Global Employment Crisis

New Life #288 – The Global Employment Crisis
Dr. Michael Laitman in conversation with Oren Levi and Yael Leshed-Harel

Summary

The number of unemployed is increasing all over the world as robots replace people.  Nature is being destroyed as jobs are being unnecessarily and artificially created. The youth feel they deserve everything and also don’t want to work as unskilled laborers. Since the nation will be able to provide for people’s existential needs, only a small percentage of the population will actually work in the future. The question therefore arises: How do we make people happy?

New Life #213 – Turning Relationship Education Into A National Mission

New Life #213 – Turning Relationship Education Into A National Mission
Dr. Michael Laitman in conversation with Oren Levi

Summary

The distance between people is the root of all kinds of crises in life including depression and many other health problems. Without connection to others, we feel abandoned like orphans. Correcting the morbidity of modern society should begin with the couple and family units. People need a supportive and warm environment in which they can continue to develop throughout all stages of the lifecycle. People no longer want to marry, but they must be in long-term, committed relationships in order to raise their children properly. We need to create a social-educational process that teaches people how to love and build mutual support as a national mission.

New Life 943 – History In The Light Of The Wisdom Of Kabbalah

New Life 943 – History In The Light Of The Wisdom Of Kabbalah
Dr. Michael Laitman in conversation with Oren Levi and Yael Leshed-Harel

Historical development occurs according to five stages that repeat themselves at different levels.

You can look at the history of the human race as a person whose life (or egoism) has evolved over the generations. The human ego has developed through the Stone, Copper, Iron and, now, Plastic Ages. Today, we face a state of despair as we are on the cusp of a new level of spiritual existence. Since God was revealed to man for the first time 5,778 years ago, the human race has been in the process of becoming a spiritual creature in consciousness and feeling. We are about to acquire new forces such as the ability to feel things with the desire to love rather than the desire to receive.

New Life 942 – How To Treat The Past

New Life 942 – How To Treat The Past
Dr. Michael Laitman in conversation with Oren Levi and Yael Leshed-Harel

The human being’s roots depend not on his relatives but on the root of his soul. In contrast to animals, which have no interest in their roots, people are intrigued about their relatives even though attitudes passed from parents to children can take on an opposite shape or expression. It is worthwhile to learn from the past and direct oneself to a higher goal, but not be immersed in it since it is already dead. The best remedy for a person who has lived a difficult life is to find a higher purpose that will illuminate to him and start a new life.

New Life 941 – How Does Man Change Internally?

New Life 941 – How Does Man Change Internally?
Dr. Michael Laitman in conversation with Oren Levi and Nitzah Mazoz

In previous generations, people had stability at work, married once, and were less likely to desire change. These days, the desire to enjoy, which is inherent in all of us, develops constantly and our lives are always changing. We want to look good in the eyes of others, but eventually this pleasure also fades away. Eventually, we ask about the meaning of our lives, and this leads us to study the wisdom of Kabbalah. We learn how to acquire the attributes of the Creator and see reality differently. We discover the upper force, learn about the power of love, and become included in eternity, revealing the secret of life.

New Life 940 – The Essence Of Change In The World

New Life 940 – The Essence Of Change In The World
Dr. Michael Laitman in conversation with Oren Levi and Nitzah Mazoz

The purpose of creation is for the creatures or humankind to become more like the Creator, meaning that the creatures have a desire to love and give like He does. Creation develops in its desire to enjoy both quantitatively and qualitatively through the inanimate, vegetative, animate, and speaking levels. The Creator develops and fulfills the desires of humankind with vitality. The influence of the Creator is constant and constantly changing in order to bring creation to a state of absolute goodness and mutual love. According to the wisdom of Kabbalah, there are no changes in the external world but only in the heart of man.

New Life 937 – The Wisdom Of Kabbalah And The Wisdoms Of The World

New Life 937 – The Wisdom Of Kabbalah And The Wisdoms Of The World
Dr. Michael Laitman in conversation with OrenLevi and Nitzah Mazoz

The wisdom of Kabbalah is the origin of the seven wisdoms of the world. Humanity needs to develop the characteristic of bestowal, like that of the Creator, in order to understand this higher wisdom. It is the harmony, connection, and the thought of creation, which is hidden above everything and all the stages of development.

Without the general rule “And you shall love your friend as yourself,” it is impossible to recognize our present state as evil and approach the higher wisdom. The wisdom of Kabbalah teaches a person how to rise above his self-centered nature and see reality as it truly is, through the nature of the Creator.
