Question: What happens to my sensations in the five corporeal sensory organs during spiritual attainment?

Answer: Our corporeal sensory organs are so small that they become almost invisible. What do you have left of your childhood? You sometimes remember maybe some episodes and that is it because everything is suppressed by other bigger impressions.

Question: Does a Kabbalist stop perceiving this world the way we perceive it today?

Answer: This world partially disappears from our sensations, since it is the opposite of the world we will come to. Our world is egoistic, built on opposition, hatred, suppression, on the destruction of one another.

And the spiritual world is built on harmony, mutual help, mutual complementing, unity, and connection with each other.

Therefore, instead of our world, a completely different connection between the elements of creation appears.

But all the same, the impression from our world, from its opposites, and from its evil does not completely disappear. It enters that new world and helps make it more convex and brighter precisely in contrast with our world.

Question: Tatiana Naumova is simply screaming, in her letter it is written in capital letters: “Tell me, how is it possible to cover this evil with love?! How?!” She gives a link to terrible footage of murders and rapes. Scary footage!

Actually, there are a lot of things in the world today that cannot be covered with love. What would you say about this?

Answer: The fact is that there is only one problem—what a person enters into. If he closes his eyes and enters the world of contradictions, murders, lies, robberies, and everything else, meaning, into the world of evil, then, of course, this is the opposite state. There is no way out of this world.

However, if he nevertheless imagines a world of goodness that is not clearly revealed before us, but we can still imagine it, then he can awaken within himself great desires for such a state and cause their revelation from above. Then everything that he saw as evil, he will gradually see as good.

Question: Even the most terrible things?

Answer: He will not see the most terrible things. He simply will not be seeing them.

Question: What will these pictures, all this horror be replaced with for him?

Answer: It will be replaced with good. Try and you will see.

Question: It is very difficult! I see a clear, terrible evil more and more today. I see evil! What will I see?

Answer: You will see the opposite. That the world is absolutely good, all people love each other, and no one does anyone any harm. How can this be?!

My eyes and my ears say the opposite. They will tell you the opposite of what they are saying now. Everything will change to the opposite.

Question: Should this be accepted as a postulate?

Answer: Not a postulate, but an assumption that you are being told about the fact that you can attain the world in a different form, inverse of what you are attaining now.

Question: You said, “You can.” If I will sort of build it for myself, force myself, think like this, enter it, that this entire world that I see is not that world, evil is not evil, but all this good, is this how I should work?

Answer: Yes. Try and you will see.

Comment: We should advise this to everyone. The entire world needs this today.

My Response: Yes, of course. People will come to this. They will see that it is simply impossible to go on like this, and they will begin to hear such advice.

Question: What is this deeper level of perception of the universe where all objects are infinitely interconnected?

Answer: We exist inside ourselves and watch some kind of movie called “life” within.

In order to understand this, we need to rise above our nature because it represents absolute egoism. This is how we are built—opposite to the eternal and perfect nature of the upper world.

Therefore, we feel only ourselves, we are closed within ourselves. Our eyes are turned inward, our ears are turned inward, and everything is turned inward. And the fact that I am talking now, living in this world, I have a wife, children, grandchildren, all this, including our history, geography, the universe, is perceived by me in this dream.

What does “in a dream” mean? It’s just that this movie is playing inside of me. It is that movie that I perceive and participate in.

And I don’t see anything outside of myself. I cannot “pull” my eye out and see what is happening outside because I feel it in myself. As if there is a screen at the back of our brain and on it I see what supposedly exists outside of me. But in fact it’s all inside me.

Question: Where does a person’s feeling that everything is divided into “I” and “others” come from?

Answer: From our egoism. Our soul is divided into two parts: the inner part, which I feel as myself, and the outer, which I feel as the outside world. These two parts are separated in me by an egoistic partition, which is evil.

Therefore, I do not feel the outside world as myself. I do not imagine that this is also me, that this is also mine. Herein lay our stupidity, short-sightedness, and blindness!

If I saw the world correctly, I would understand that all of it is me, my soul. Everything external, everything that exists, everything that is beyond me, is my one single soul. Then I would treat everything differently.

Our egoism is specially created in such a way that it contrasts the inner part of the soul with the outer one and makes us egoists who care only about what is inside. Everything that is outside, in my blindness, I do not consider as part of myself and destroy and despise it and rejoice if someone is feeling bad. Later it will be revealed, and we will soon reveal, that it is actually me. How badly I treated it! I despised and did everything to the detriment of my closest ones, my children, parents, and so on.

After all, everything that is outside of me is either my parents or my children and grandchildren—either backward or forward. This is all of humanity in previous reincarnations or in the future ones. We cannot imagine that.

Suddenly it turns out that, let’s say, the Japanese are my closest, beloved, relatives. Look what is happening to theme and I am gloating.

Such a terrible revelation of the truth awaits all of humanity! That is, you destroy, kill, harm, and suddenly you are told: “It is your little son.” And you were destroying him.

This is what we will see and on a universal scale. It is this feeling of remorse and horror that will befall a person! However, it will lead us to the fact that we finally shake ourselves up so that we mingle with each other and discover ourselves as absolutely one common whole.

Question: They say that water has memory. What is this phenomenon?

Answer: Water has special characteristics. We know its properties such as its freezing point, dew point, as well as others, without water life on Earth would be impossible. We are completely adjusted to these properties because they are the most basic for us at the bodily level.

And in the spiritual, water is the source of everything. A source in the sense that if it accompanies any living process, there is a place for it and it will be executed correctly. As soon as the water disappears from there, it closes within itself and dries up.

Comment: It is believed that the memory of previous generations is embedded in the water.

My Response: The fact is that memory is not a property of water itself. Water is a carrier of memory, which is transferred through it from one generation to another, from one Partzuf to another. Souls communicate with each other through water. Water is a carrier of information.

Question: Can I fill my desires and inner voids not in the way I am accustomed, by absorbing everything into myself like a black hole, but the other way around?

Answer: Yes. In order to pass over to the spiritual world, we need to exit our world, begin to attract new desires that are uncharacteristic of us, and absorb them in ourselves. All earth dwellers must unite together into one common desire, and then we will rise to the next level.

This is the essence of the biblical commandment “Love your neighbor as yourself.” It was given to us not for the purpose of making life pleasant and safe here on Earth but only to rise higher.

A person needs to see everyone that exists outside of him as his personal integral parts, as his desire, that is, as his “I.”

The inner “I” of everyone who lives on Earth, in principle, represents one single whole. It only seems to us that we are separated from each other, hate each other, and repel each other, and that we are immersed in all sorts of bad qualities like envy, jealousy, pride, and so on.

Actually, this envy, jealousy, and pride should encourage us to connect with each other so that I am the very first in this. And I strive to be the very best in unification with others, to reveal this strength in myself, and to encourage others to do the same.

Question: Why does a person always measure himself in relation to others? What is the reason for this perception?

Answer: We do not perceive anything otherwise! We came out of the caves. And everything that is above the most necessary level, we always measure relative to others.

If I have a house, a cow, a dog, a vegetable garden, I live and see only such a world as mine, then I see how much I am not worse than others. And if it’s better, then I’m already a big man, rich, noble. That’s how I measure myself.

If everyone has a car, a green lawn, and so on, then I also want to be no worse. And if there is also a yacht, then I am already comparing who has the bigger one, the oligarch or me. The little man looks at everything only like that. How can he have any absolute measurements?

Comment: Recently, the Academic Vernadsky has become increasingly popular. According to his views on the universe, he can even be compared to a biblical prophet.

His works are closely intertwined with the ideas of the most ancient science on earth, the science of Kabbalah, which reveals the structure of the universe, its purpose, the place of man in it, and the meaning of life.

Vernadsky, in his research, came to the conclusion that the number of combinations and interrelations we see in the smallest grain of sand of creation are the same on the global scale.

My Response: The individual and general are equal. This is the so-called principle of “similarity of specific and general.” That is, the atom is like the solar system, the solar system is like the greater cosmos, and so on.

We all come from one small point. We are talking about the upper worlds, which then expand and bring us to our world. Our world, our universe, was also formed from a small dot.

And so it is at each level: a small point descends and with the help of the matter formed in it turns into a large, expanded system. Then, at the next level, the whole system is deployed again from its final, lowest point. And on and on. There are five such descents, five worlds.

This is how our universe appeared from a small point, by the force of the so-called Big Bang. In fact, there was no huge explosion. A small spark of spiritual energy broke through from the highest spiritual level to the material level. And because it is spiritual, this spark was enough to create all of today’s matter, energy, information—everything that fills our world.

The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be (Douglas Adams).

Question: Why does a person think that what is happening around him is normal? He is born with this perception and he has no initial urge to change it.

Answer: How can it be changed? I remember when I was a child I was very fond of astronomy and when I was in class I would gaze at the sky. It aroused genuine interest in me and attracted me. I didn’t see anything in it that would repel or threaten. On the contrary, I was very grateful to nature, to the sky, for being able to look and see our states in it.

Question: But only a small percentage of people ask themselves why everything is created this way and not otherwise. Why do most people perceive this as the norm?

Answer: Firstly, because this is the norm and nothing else exists. You can of course, imagine anything like it is done in science fiction. But in principle, this is the norm and we live in it. We exist the way we do because everything is created in accordance with us and we are created in accordance with what we see. If there were another universe, we would be different.

So we will live for now, develop as much as possible, and then we will see. No matter how much we fantasize, nothing else is given to us and nothing will change so quickly.. Therefore, I do not see rationality in resisting the nature in which you, your brains, or your feelings are created. And based on this, how will you resist it? It doesn’t work.

Question: Is fantasy good?

Answer: Fantasy is good, but when it is within the scope of self-control. If I had any opportunities to go beyond the boundaries of nature and from there try to change something, myself, nature itself, or both of these parameters, nature and myself, it would be a different matter. But if I can’t go beyond these boundaries, what is there to talk about? This is truly fantasy.

In the News (“Can Negative Thinking Make You Sick?”): “By now, the mind-body connection is a familiar idea. Most people are aware, for example, that stress can produce physical symptoms like an upset stomach, or that depression often physically hurts. But a growing body of research suggests that negative emotions and thoughts may also have links to other serious health problems, like heart disease.

“‘Many negative emotions such as anger, fear, and frustration become problematic when those emotions turn into a more permanent disposition or a habitual outlook on the world,’ explains Emiliana Simon-Thomas, PhD, science director of the Greater Good Science Center at UC Berkeley.”

Question: Does the appearance of such a disease as cancer relate to our thoughts?

Answer: The fact of the matter is that our thoughts are the basis of all problems. Good thoughts are the foundation of all good actions in the world.

Thoughts are the most important thing! Everything is done by thoughts! In actuality, our hands do nothing. We are tied to each other by thoughts. If something happens at one end of the world, it resonates at the other end.

Today our system is being revealed as a global one where everything is interconnected and every day we feel this interconnection more and more. Moreover, this is not actually being created now because we are simply revealing the essence that has always existed.

It turns out that we are connected all the time. And how are we connected? With our thoughts! The whole universe, the whole nature, is one enormous thought and thinking field into which we add everything with our thoughts.

Imagine how much better the world would be if we controlled and clearly realized how to think in order not to release a bad thought into the world, to stop it before it originates in us, and to make sure that all the thoughts that arise in us were only positive.

That is when we will begin to know who we really are, where all this comes from in us, and the nature of our essence. We will begin to see and feel ourselves not just as a piece of flesh in which all sorts of fluctuations occur like thoughts, such desires, whose origins I don’t know.

I will begin to feel my root, which is somewhere in the depths of me where my desires, thoughts, heart, and mind originate. And I want to affect my root so that everything in it is positive and so that I proceed from my root, from my point, from my I, from my soul, and not use my body to participate in the world, in this whole huge thinking and feeling system, but in this huge field only as a positive element. And so does another person, a third and a fourth.

Then everyone will not grab everything from the world with their thoughts and want to devour it like a cancerous tumor, but will act to the contrary.

The world will become harmonious and built on mutual bestowal like cells in a healthy body that are engaged only in giving to each other and therefore the body lives. Then we will be able to exist in a completely different world, in such harmony that we will clearly feel as an eternal and perfect state. Precisely this will be the upper world.

And we will stop feeling our body because it will disappear. it. Like in the Philadelphia Experiment when the ship disappeared. This is how my body disappears because I will only feel the point from where my thoughts and desires originate and how I am connected by them with everyone else. I will exist only in a field, a volume, and a world where there are only thoughts and desires and there is no flesh.
