Man is a receiver in which the surrounding field is manifested and it includes absolutely everything. Depending on how similar we are to this field and how much we as sensors capture it, our informational, conceptual, sensory, and other structures change.

In principle, man feels this field to the measure of his similarity to it, and he divides this sensation into feelings and reason. There are many divisions in the feelings, many gradations in the mind.

Thus, the feeling of oneself and everything around us as existing is a measure of similarity or, conversely, dissimilarity from the information field in which we are located.

Apart from man and this field, practically nothing exists. Inanimate, vegetative, and animate objects and people are only a projection of a person’s consciousness on himself. And there is nothing that actually exists in relation to it except for this field, which is informational in terms of knowledge and sensations.

Question: If today people could somehow change their attitude to their consciousness, what would you advise them in order to see some changes in their lives?

Answer: I don’t think it’s easy. To master the Kabbalistic technique, a teacher is needed who shows the students how to properly cancel themselves in front of each other, how to level their egoism, how to begin to perceive others, how everyone is enriched at the expense of the other nine participants, and how they are included in each other.

And then these inclusions turn them into one common whole where everyone no longer separates himself and the others, even if he perceives and absorbs from others what is in them. At the next level of consciousness, they turn from ten to one, into one whole.

And then you can collect a lot of such tens, turn each of them into a unit, connect them together, and so build a pyramid. Then you will see what happens with the exit to integral consciousness. There are very big opportunities here.

Question: What is the purpose of the brain in human life?

Answer: Kabbalah says that in his perception of the world, a man consists of two components, the desire and the mind. The most important is his desire.

Our desires can be egoistic, i.e., completely aimed at revealing oneself and the world precisely in an egoistic manner, in terms of personal comfort. They can also be altruistic, that is, opposed to egoism. But altruistic desires do not initially exist in nature, they need to be achieved. When we enter above the egoistic area of our cognition of nature, we investigate it, as it were, independent of ourselves.

However, this is relative independence because it is us who are exploring anyway. But this is completely different research, which speaks of what exists outside of a man, and how he can attain, cognize, and use it.

Thus, there are two types of cognition: cognition in egoism and cognition in the property of bestowal and love to others when a man, as if from himself, emotionally transmigrates into others. Then he feels the world outside himself. These two types of cognition are studied by Kabbalah.

Our brain is just an auxiliary tool. It helps us connect pictures of the world, either egoistically or altruistically, helps us explore them, and is directing us to this.

The Book of Zohar, “YaYera, Item 114: “When Adam HaRishon sinned, he sinned with the tree of knowledge of good and evil, as it is written, ‘but of the tree of the knowledge.’ And he sinned in it and caused death to the whole world.”

The world is everything I feel. When, on a spiritual level, I started to use my egoism, then immediately my world, all my sensations were reduced from the huge, higher, immense, eternal, perfect state in which I was to a small, flawed, egoistic, dim, temporary world, which quickly ends with my death.

This is exactly what happened in the sensations of people who fell from the spiritual level to the corporeal one.

I feel the whole world inside me. Everything that enters my senses is formed, added up, integrated within me, and is given to me as a picture of my universe, my world, what I absorb into myself.

If however, spiritual sensory organs are formed in me and they are practically immense, then I seem to get out of myself, out of my limitations, and I start to perceive nature in its eternal perfection.

Question: How many people throughout history have crossed the Machsom? Are there only a few, tens, or thousands of them?

Answer: Millions of people. However, we must understand that this is a process. Souls are not some blocks separated from each other, but rather, they are desires that constantly mix, change, and connect. That is, it is a complex integral system.

Question: Where do these millions exist?

Answer: They exist outside of bodies, in desires. After all, the most important thing is desire. The body appears to us as existing in the same limited volume as our world. In fact, there is no material world. Only the spiritual world exists. Therefore, we need to move to the feeling of the spiritual world and make certain that it is the one that exists and not this world.

Question: Where do people exist after crossing the Machsom, and what do they do there?

Answer: They exist in their qualities. Everything that is outside of these qualities, all kinds of inanimate, vegetative, and animate matter (there is no human matter in our world; it is classified as animate) are perceived only in our earthly feelings. In reality, all this does not exist.

Feelings change, and this world disappears.

The entire reality is filled with our great egoism. The entire world, inanimate nature, plants, animals, and people, all these are degrees of our egoistic desire in which we must begin to make room for the force of bestowal, the force of the Creator.

We work inside ourselves, inside our perception of the world, our connection, and create a place where the Creator can place the embryo of His quality of bestowal and begin to grow within us.

The Creator influences us both from within and without. We are inside the white light, which has purposely restricted itself so that we can exist in it. Thus, we find ourselves inside an empty space freed from the presence of the Creator, and we do not feel Him.

A ray of light entered into this empty space and started building spiritual objects and worlds inside this emptiness. Therefore, we are inside the Creator, under His full control. But this is how it looks from the side of the Creator.

From the side of the created beings, we exist in an empty space, supposedly free from the control of the Creator because we do not see this control and do not feel it. Therefore, we think that we are the masters of this world and our lives.

But in fact, the Creator educates us and brings us to the realization that we do not know where we really are. Then we begin to search for what our life depends on and discover that there is the upper force that determines and realizes everything, and we yearn to reveal it.

This is how it happened to all the Kabbalists of the past generations until they disclosed the method that allows us to connect with the Creator and passed on to us the method of revealing the Creator to the created beings in this world, which is called the wisdom of Kabbalah.

Question: Which Kabbalistic book was the first to fall into your hands and reveal the yearning for spirituality in you?

Answer: The Preface to the Wisdom of Kabbalah, this is a very complex book.

I read many different books and articles. I tried to immediately delve into serious things, but was confused, and did not know how and what until I found my teacher. This happened after three to four years of independent study during which I went through various so-called Kabbalah experts.

However, when I found the teacher, I stayed with him for the rest of his life. I was his assistant, his personal disciple. And after him, I continued his activities.

Question: What is the first book you would recommend in order to start studying Kabbalah?

Answer: Kabbalah is a science. Therefore, it may be able to attract, but only to some extent. After all, a person must have some desire to discover the meaning of life.

If someone has it, he will understand that Kabbalah answers the question of how to reveal this meaning, how to change himself, to change his life, and what internal tools he has for this. They are within the person. In general, this is the science of cognition and understanding the surrounding space.

Then a person will begin to see this space in a more expanded form, actively, in interaction with everything around him. By changing his attitude to the environment, that is, by changing himself, he changes the reaction of the environment to him.

My egoism looks for flaws in my friends, but if I want to advance spiritually, I must, on the contrary, see their merits and envy their success. After all, I do not have enough desire to achieve the goal, and where else can I get it?

I once was Adam HaRishon, one common soul, one great desire. But then this desire broke into many pieces, and I was left with only a tiny piece of the entire huge vessel of the system of the common soul. Now I have to move from this meager piece to the huge desire that I had when I was included in the entire system.

This can only be achieved through envy. Envy is a very important tool that increases our desires and opportunities. And without growing the desire, it is impossible to move toward the goal. The Creator needs a certain volume in order to be revealed, called “full measure”(Seah). He cannot be revealed in a vessel capable of receiving only a few grams of filling.

Let’s say that the spiritual experience begins with receiving ten kilograms of filling. When I find the need to receive such fulfillment, I begin to feel my desire empty and then fulfilled. And if my lack is less than that, I do not feel anything.

All our sensory organs are arranged in the same way, working only in a certain range. Devices detect that there are many different waves around us: sound, light, but we do not see or hear them. We begin to perceive the signal, starting from a certain level and up to a certain level, that is, in a limited range.

It works in the same way in the spiritual world. If we want to begin to experience spirituality, we must increase our desire to enjoy in addition to what we received in the shattering. At the expense of what can I turn one gram of desire that I have into ten grams? Only by taking over the desires of others can I be impressed by their qualities and needs.

So we get together in groups, learn together, discuss, and thus get involved in each other’s desires. And the one who does not mix with the desires of others has no chance of revealing the Creator. The Creator reveals himself between us in my desire to receive that is increased by connecting with my friends. Therefore, without envy, which allows us to expand the Kli, we will not be able to reveal the Creator.

The fact is that before the sin of the Tree of Knowledge and the breaking of Adam HaRishon, we were all connected and included in each other in an ideal way. But as a result of the shattering, each one has separated from the others, and now he lacks what is in others.

Before the shattering, everyone had the same common desire, and now only his personal point remains while all other qualities are lost for him. And without attaching them to himself, he will not be able to reveal the Creator in them. Therefore, the revelation of the Creator depends on how much I have become involved in the qualities of a friend.

It is about this that it is said that “You lack nothing but to go out to a field that the Lord has blessed, and collect all those flaccid organs that have drooped from your soul, and join them into a single body.” This is our job. In this field, blessed by the Creator, we find all our broken desires and want to gather them together, to join them.

And all this because of envy. I am now in my egoism and I envy my friends, what they have. Because of this I approach them, engage in their desires, and restore the whole vessel of Adam HaRishon. In this way, I correct the shattering and approach the goal of life, the goal of creation.

Question: What do forward and backward mean in the spiritual coordinate system? Is it cause and effect, time, or something else?

Answer: There is no going backward in spirituality at all because that is regression, and the only direction we move is forward.

Moving forward is based on greater connection, unity between us. The more we accelerate time, which makes us closer, we ourselves try to get closer to each other, the more we will hasten time and advance toward the future ahead of all of humanity.

We can easily find ourselves 200 to 300 years ahead while all of humanity will still be in our miserable 21st century.

The only thing we need to do is to accelerate the unity between us. A group that does this becomes like a spaceship. It flies through time feeling it as one of the parameters it can change. This is what we also say about the spiritual world that is above time and space.

Question: You keep repeating the same phrase: “Love your neighbor as yourself,” and you say that this is the way to live. But if I hate myself, what should I do about it? Don’t you need to first love yourself and then your neighbor? Or is there something I do not understand?”

Answer: You are right. This is exactly what this phrase really says. You are actually on the right path to understanding the meaning of this great phrase. “Love your neighbor as yourself,” that is, you must love yourself and your neighbor as yourself.

You exist in this world. What does it mean to love yourself? Make it so that you feel good in this world, warm, safe, and calm. How to do it?

How would you do it for a loved one, as a loving person? Imagine yourself in place of everyone else around you Then you will see that the entire world is really just you.
