What Will Save The European Union From Breaking Up?

Laitman_721_03Question: Recent polls show that more and more citizens of the European Union want to leave it. In England today, they account for 50% of the population, and in France and Sweden, 38%.

At the end of the month, a final poll will be conducted in England, and it is possible that the nation will leave the European Union.

Do you think it is a matter of time until, in one way or another, everything will break up?

Answer: I was sure of this from the start because instead of a union of hearts, a European market was created, not a union.

Question: So where is this going and what can be done?

Answer: Nothing except to leave quietly while this is still possible. I believe the EU leaders will not come to anything, but in the meantime, they haven’t heard us.

We, as Kabbalists, cannot come to them and convince them that we are right. They have another belief system and understanding, so they will not accept our approach.

Question: Is this liable to end in war?

Answer: The problem is that everything is unpredictable. I can predict the operation of systems that are in dynamic development, or the opposite, in anti-development. And there is not one or the other. Soon, another million refugees will arrive in Europe. All seething as in a cauldron, and it is unclear what will happen.

Question: Will the division of Europe happen specifically because of the refugees?

Answer: If there were no refugees, Europe would experience a much simpler breakup of the union. The nations of the EU would have found a common path.

Question: Could a leader appear who could unite Europe?

Answer: Do you mean a new Hitler? That is absolutely possible. Such a revolution could happen in France and Hungary, that is, nations that are particularly close to Nazism. And the rest of the nations would support it. Each one would have its own leader. But nothing can be predicted.

We are arriving at the next stage of the world. I do not predict, but only talk about the fact that we must very quickly and urgently bring the upper force of goodness and love. How this power will act in the world is not our concern. Our role is to bring Light to the nations of the world.

“Elites In A Search Of Consensus”

laitman_547_05In the News (vestifinance.ru): “The members of the Bilderberg Club, whose meetings behind closed doors for more than half a century, is an occasion for all sorts of conspiracy theories, once again synchronize watches on key issues on the agenda of the globalist Western elites.

“In 2016 the meeting place for ‘Bilderberg’ guests has become Dresden. …

“Here as always, on the site of the permanent attributes of protest against the Bilderberg meetings: claimed to discuss topics traditionally vague and provide only approximate information:

1. Current events. 2. China. 3. Europe: migration, growth, reform, vision and unity. 4. Middle East. 5. Russia. 6. US political landscape, the economy: growth, debt, reform. 7. Cybersecurity. 8. Geopolitics of Energy and commodity prices. 9. Prekariat and the middle class. 10. Technological innovations. What it will include a discussion of these topics? …

“As always with Bilderberg, it’s just guesses. In this case the main thing is not what is going on behind closed doors. The fact that over the past 60 years, a meeting of representatives of the authorities, the heads of major banks, energy companies, defense corporations, major media of western countries leaves no secret aura of paranoia and speculation, It does not add to the fans ‘Bilderberg’. …

“‘Daniel Estulin, author of the acclaimed bestseller Who rules the world? Or the whole truth about Bilderberg, describes the meeting as a “meeting of the shadow world government … threatening to take away our right to manage our destiny, creating a disturbing reality”. “Imagine a private club where presidents, prime ministers, bankers and generals closely communicate, where people who make war and affect the markets, saying that they would never dare to say publicly,” – he said. In the overwhelming majority ‘Bilderberg’ represent the interests of global capital. They are not accountable to the population. At the same time they discuss issues that directly affect many people… .’”

My Comment: This is characteristic and natural in our egoistic world. They think that they own the controls. Each one of them wants to take everything, and they all agree how to peacefully divide the world. But there is no reason to worry about their decisions because everything is done from above. The Creator establishes and materializes our desires.

If we know how to ask, to raise MAN, we determine the managerial influence that comes down from above! But this is the role of all the people of Israel, meaning all those who are prepared to raise the right request to the Creator. The group of Kabbalists of Bnei Baruch are disseminating the wisdom of Kabbalah, the method for correctly influencing the managing upper force, the Creator; while the powerful rulers in this world are no more than “puppets on strings”—conductors of this force.

Modern Slavery

laitman_600_02Question: It turns out that there is still slavery in the modern world. 45 million people around the world are abused as slaves. This number is equivalent to the population of Spain.

According to recent research, slavery is the exploitation of a person who cannot leave because of threats of violence, coercion, or deception. People can be enslaved because of a debt and so forth.

Answer: Before the destruction of the Second Temple the slaves among the nation of Israel had many privileges. The landlord was required to take care of his slave, and the slave was obliged to work for the landlord according to his powers and his abilities. At the same time, the relationship between them was normal and mutual, just as they are today between an employer and an employee. A slave did not want to leave his landlord because the latter provided everything he needed, as it is written, “… give your slave your pillow.”

As for other nations, they had a completely different attitude toward slaves. They beat them, humiliated them, killed them, and did not treat them as human beings, not even as domestic animals, which were looked after, cherished, and fed.

Question: What is slavery from a Kabbalistic perspective?

Answer: According to the wisdom of Kabbalah, slavery is total obedience to your landlord, “This is what the landlord wants, so this is how I move.” A slave constantly looks to the landlord and carries out his will, and at the same time, totally suppresses his own desire. His efforts, his opinion, his desires, and his thoughts all are aimed at the landlord’s desire so as to continue the latter’s desire. A slave has no desire of his own, but only the desire of the landlord.

Question: Can we say that, in this world, we all are slaves to our egoistic nature?

Answer: Of course! We also can say that we are the Creator’s slaves, but unconsciously! This is because the Creator is the only force of nature that manages us, but He wants us to be independent. This is our problem: to be independent of Him and even above Him!

It is written, “My sons have defeated Me,” which means becoming free of slavery, becoming totally independent, and taking the leadership of the entire world from the Creator’s hands. This is His real desire, His dream. And we, unfortunately, do not want to think about something higher, more sublime, and thus we remain slaves and live as animals.

Therefore the Creator pushes us through suffering so that we will perceive and understand our absolutely poor, paltry, miserable, and limited state, and will want to rise from it.

I hope that as the sufferings grow, people will begin to perceive and understand that. There is no other way to influence people. Then, people will use what the Creator offers them: His knowledge, His method, His wisdom, the wisdom of Kabbalah.

If we begin to implement it, we will see how much we gain from becoming the masters and ceasing to be slaves. This is how we enter a completely different level of existence, a world of eternity, infinity, and perfection, a totally different entity, a different dimension. But this is for free people.

“The Great Deception: Resettlement Of Muslim People In The Guise Of An Immigration Crisis”

Laitman_408Opinion (inosmi.ru): “When the resettlement of peoples is portrayed as a crisis related to refugees, it is the main reason we help and do not betray the weak. For the next four years, the government plans to bring another 100-125 thousand migrants from the Middle East. The government is behaving as if immigration -is a kind of natural disaster, which can not be stopped. The truth is quite the opposite: immigration – is a political catastrophe that can stop tomorrow. …

“Every time on the news or in debates you hear the word ‘refugee’ and ‘immigration crisis,’ you can be sure that you are being misled. This is done either by those who do not know what they are talking about, or – and it’s even worse! – they really know but prefer to use the wrong concept.. …. The word ‘refugee’ hides the fact that we are dealing with a permanent migration of peoples, and not with some transient migratory crisis. …

“When the refugee prefers to leave the camp and secure the country’s status, in the UN their status is changed from refugee to economic migrants. And the same rights are not guaranteed to economic migrants. In fact, economic migrants means illegal migrants in the country that the person either crosses or where he stops. So, why is the press, politicians, experts and participants in the debate in our country still talking about refugees, if we hardly have taken …  countless migrants, i.e., illegal immigrants? …

“Why do politicians and the media continue to deceive the public, making it think that you’re helping or allowing immigration to Europe, or you’re just cold and cynical? We can imagine several explanations. The first thing that comes to mind is the fact that politicians and the press from the heart believe that Europe one way or another should swallow this monstrous Migration. But it is -. … the EU over the years has agreed with immigration for fear of falling birth rates in Europe.

“Instead of paying attention to the circumstances that lead to a drop in the birth rate, the rate was made up with immigration. And first with those from the Middle East, including Turkey. In 1992, immigration has exceeded the natural increase of the EU population.The total number of residents in the 28 EU countries has grown from about 400 million in 1960 to 500 million today. In 2014, immigration ‘contributed’ to 85% of the increase in the population. Thus, immigration – is the EU’s strategy, although Danish politicians can hardly recognize it officially.”

Answer: The mistake the EU is making is hoping that the refugees’ mentality will change. However, in fact, the opposite actually will happen. The Moslems will force Europe to convert to Islam, and this actually will happen during one generation. According to the wisdom of Kabbalah, Ishmael (the son of Abraham and the father of the Islamic nation) will conquer Europe at the end of times and then will set on his journey to Jerusalem.

Village Buys Off Refugees

laitman_766_1In the News (Daily Mail): “One of Europe’s wealthiest villages is refusing to accept any asylum seekers – and has instead voted to pay a fine of £200,000.

“Fears women and children could be at risk from sex attacks as well as the disruption to their peaceful way of life has led the super-rich of Switzerland’s alpine resort of Oberwil-Lieli to vote ‘no’ in a referendum to accept just ten migrants.

“The picturesque village, where 300 millionaires make up 2,200 population, they all used their financial muscle to reject a Government imposed quota.

“Some of Oberwil-Lieli’s wealthiest residents even offered to personally foot part of the fine being imposed by the Swiss authorities for refusing to house refugees.

“‘We do not want them here it is as simple as that,’ one resident of the village told MailOnline.

“‘We have worked hard all our lives and have a lovely village that we do not want it spoiled. We are not suited to take in refugees. They would not fit in here.’

“Surrounded by lush green pastures and with stunning views of the snow-capped Alps in the distance, the twin villages of Oberwil and Lieli would not look out of place on the front of a box of chocolates. …

“The roads are spotlessly clean, gardens are immaculately kept and despite its proximity to the country’s major city Zurich of 10 miles there is little traffic.

“Add a zero crime rate and it is not hard to see why homes in the villages cost upwards of £1million with many others worth three times as much.

“It is this idyll that villagers, a mixture of retirees and young families, voted to keep fearing an influx of migrants would change their way of life.”

My Comment: If we wanted to live in a normal, serene, beautiful, and quiet city where most of the population are wealthy Christians and Catholics, and suddenly poor Muslims join us with a different culture, language, religion, and mentality, naturally we wouldn’t want to accept them.

If the overwhelming majority of the local residents don’t want the refugees, the government has no right to force them. It cannot go against the people. Otherwise, why does it exist?

Question: How can Europe control the avalanche of refugees?

Answer: Only by introducing a rigid integral education that speaks about the unification of all people into one supra-national, supra-religious whole, above all differences between people, according to the general rule, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself” (Leviticus 19:18).

Question: Is it possible to introduce this strictly?

Answer: If people want to live together, what else can be suggested to them? It only can be like this.

Question: One way or another, we see that everything is happening under an unseen management. What is the idea of a higher power that is directing the refugees toward Europe?

Answer: In this way, the Creator is pushing us toward correction so that we would understand that this is not the way.
In any case, we will have to begin to learn and engage in integral education.

The Problem Of The Growing World Population

laitman_423_03Question: Great demographic changes are expected in the near future. Life expectancy is rising and the number of elderly people is growing, while the number of young people is declining.

For 51 years, from 1960 to 2011, the world population grew from three billion people to seven billion. The European population is expected to decrease by 10%, while the population in Africa and Asia is expected to grow by 30%. From 2010 until 2030, there will be a demand for 734 million new jobs and society’s greatest enemy will be aging.

The fact that people today can live to the age of 85 to 90 is a big problem for all of humanity.

Answer: Of course, and why do we need to live for so many years?

Question: A person has a desire to live.

Answer: Suppose we could add some magic potion to our drinking water and prolong people’s life by 50 years. What then?

I believe that a person was not born to work and produce more, sell more, buy more, pollute the earth more, and so on.

A person must dedicate his life to studying and exploring the structure of humanity and to correcting the connection between people since through that he attains an upper energy, the upper goal.

If a person comes to this state, through correcting himself and the world, he saturates the world with goodness, with the upper energy, and then life is worth living.

Therefore, all of the billions of people who come along and the billions who will live 50 years longer must become part of a new integral education system so that they will be taught to be human beings who will bring affluence, freedom, and “oxygen” into our society.

Thus, the problem of unemployment will be solved, the problem of “extra mouths to feed” and all of our problems will be solved without exception.

Everything depends only on the degree to which we are harmonious with nature, a harmony that can exist only when we ascend above our ego. If we do that, everyone will feel good, and if we don’t, then no matter how many people there are, things  will only get worse.

The Middle Class Is Rapidly Becoming More And More Right-Wing

laitman_926_02Question: All over the world, the middle class is rapidly and powerfully becoming more and more right-wing. The values of the middle class are the values of the good old days, which have long passed. They are not cosmopolitan, not open to the rest of the world, and their anger rapidly is moving toward hatred.

They see how billions of insufficiently budgeted funds are wasted in solving everyday problems, and how the unemployed are forced to “sit on the neck” of the nation. This is a trend that will not end well.

Answer: It will not end well; it means that it will end in fascism.

Fascism is control by the highest egoism, where only what is important is us as a nation in which everyone is united and equal from the highest to the lowest, even though, as a general rule, the highest is a dictator or his party. In this situation, the will of the people seemingly is carried out and becomes the motivating force.

Generally, this structure attracts people because it has no bureaucracy. There is no army of functionaries who “sit on the neck” of the people. There is no religion since fascism itself becomes a religion. It is a closed society within itself that works for its own sake. This is what everyone wants.

As a general rule, societies like these flare up egoistically, wanting to swallow everyone else.

They end badly because their structure is absolutely contrary to the goal of creation: to come to overall unity.

Question: What is impeding humanity from advancing directly toward the goal of creation?

Answer: It depends on the awareness of the people. Egoistic development only leads to fascism and national socialism, and consequently to the next world war.

The Kabbalists wrote about two options for the continued development of humanity: either an external war or an internal war within man and society where we are reborn internally under the influence of external forces.

No one can predict in advance how this will go.

Most importantly is that people who are involved with the correction of egoism draw what is called Ohr Makif (Surrounding Light) into our world. This is a force that opens humanity positively. So, if we can insert a sufficient amount of the influence of the Light into the world, the world will avoid war and will continue on in a good direction.

The Introduction Of Guaranteed Basic Income

laitman_626In the News (Independent): “A leading artificial intelligence (AI) expert believes that societies may have to consider issuing a basic income to all citizens, in order to combat the threat to jobs posed by increased automation in the workplace. …

“Dr Moshe Vardi, a computer science professor at Rice University in Texas, believes that a basic income may be needed in the future as advances in automation and AI put human workers out of jobs. …

“In Dr Vardi’s view, governments and societies around the world may have to consider a ‘basic income guarantee’ – a system in which all citizens or residents of a country receive an unconditional sum of money, in addition to any income they bring in elsewhere. …

“If technology-induced mass employment does become a reality in the future, a basic income may be one of the solutions. Governments around the world will be keeping a close eye on the experiments in northern Europe to see just how feasible the concept is.”

My Comment: Capitalists themselves will begin speaking socialist slogans because life will obligate them. So gradually a whole system of relationships based on the unity of all in one system will be implemented. After all, fighting would be to our own peril!

And the money will not be worth anything; everything is going to be reset when when everything that is beyond the basic necessities loses its value. Beyond the necessities will be discovered only the possibility of discovering and fulfilling the soul.

The Massive Terrorist Attack In Orlando

QueLaitman_408stion: In Orlando, there was a massive terrorist attack. A young Muslim of Afghan origin shot fifty people in a gay night club, making it the deadliest mass shooting in the US. ISIS claimed responsibility for the attack.

Answer: Most people in our society lack a sense of love of others, including of gay people. The only question is how society determines its attitude toward those who are different and whether this attitude is determined by the laws of society according to the level of its tolerance or whether it stems from understanding this phenomenon. On the other hand, there is religious intolerance.

In principle, Islam in this respect has never been too fierce. These phenomena have been part of humanity since the beginning of time, but Islam today has become so militant, narrow-minded, and fanatic that it does not tolerate any deviations, no matter how people may interpret them. This is especially true when there is a desire to conquer, oppress, or exhibit, and elevate one’s ideology. Therefore, we are yet to see many such incidences, and no one can do anything about it.

I went to America recently, a year after my previous visit, and I am amazed each time by the rapid growth of the Muslim population there. They feel at home, that they own the place, and they put pressure on others openly, and not taking anything into account.

In other words, they intentionally behave the way that they do and are not afraid of the police. They feel that the police seemingly will be on their side. And so the Americans behave very cautiously toward them and move quietly aside. Consequently, we are sure to see very rapid changes in every aspect of American society.

Question: What can you say from the perspective of the upper scenario?

Answer: The upper scenario is very simple. Islam must conquer the modern world, especially Europe and America, in order to grow very strong and rise against Israel.

Question: Must they conquer the entire world because of a tiny ball like Israel?!

Answer: They will be suffocated by Israel if they don’t conquer Europe and America, and together with them, fight against Israel. However, according to the upper scenario, they will be suffocated anyway afterward!

The question is whether we can act today so that they will be suffocated now in order to prevent more victims in Europe and in America so that there will not be great wars, violence, and the provocations that they are planning against the people in those continents.

The Jews Of New Jersey On Behalf Of The Muslims

laitman_435Comment: Many Jewish organizations in the state of New Jersey have joined their efforts in the struggle against discrimination against Muslims. In addition, the American Association of Jewish Lawyers and Jurists filed a lawsuit demanding the construction of Mosques be allowed in the city of Basking Ridge. More than 70 members of the House of Representatives in the US Congress, among them representatives of Jewish organizations, believe that it is impossible to ignore the opinions and religious views of people.

My Comment: That is how it always has been in America. Catholics, Jews, Orthodox, and Muslims have studied together and served together in the American military. Moreover, in the American military units there are chapels in which everyone prays together, including Christians, Jews, and Muslims. That is how it has always been. The problem is that the Muslims have begun to take on a different character; their religion has been left somewhere on the side and instead they have begun to impose a Fascist approach with demands, claims, and rigid pressure. Their behavior has gone beyond all limits, and clearly it is difficult to tolerate.

Many Jewish organizations in America agree with the Muslims and think that in this way they are expressing their support for the Muslims. They show the world how good they are, but they will be the first to be exterminated. If we delve into history, we see that initially the most enthusiastic helpers of the Nazis and Fascists were Jews.

Question: What is it about the Jewish people that we prepare our own noose?

Answer: The fact is that we cannot be in the middle. Either we protect ourselves, our faith, our spiritual work, our advancement toward the Creator, or we prepare a noose for ourselves. We are a stiff-necked people, polar; we can advance in one direction only or precisely in the opposite direction. Unfortunately, for the meantime, the balance is swinging in the opposite direction.

Nobody wants to hear what the Kabbalists in the world are saying as they warn about the danger of annihilation of the Jewish people just as Baal HaSulam warned in the 20s of the last century. When he was a judge in Warsaw, Baal HaSulam called the Jews of Poland to emigrate to the land of Israel, claiming that in another twenty years they could expect great danger. But they decided not to listen to him and in this way they condemned themselves with a death sentence.

I certainly am not putting myself in the place of Baal HaSulam. But I am appealing to all Jews. We must protect Jews, Muslims, and Christians who support cooperation, friendship, and good mutual connections, and not those who preach Fascism in all its forms.
