Question: Isn’t it dangerous to unite with other people; can illnesses and negative feelings be passed on to me?

Answer: In our lives we are in the collisions and interactions with other people and all sorts of germs and viruses are passed from one to another in our life. But precisely because of that we become stronger and build immunity.

The same thing also happens when we fulfill the method of unity. When we work on the ego separately it is harmful, but when we begin to work together and rise above it we find out how helpful it is. It is given as help against us. This is the method of correction that we should study.

We should be grateful for our egoism, because with its help we ascend the spiritual ladder of 125 levels. The higher we ascend the ladder, the more our egoism grows and develops.

It is an amazing process in which the higher a person rises, the more egoistic he becomes and at the same time the more spiritual he becomes. This is how the wisdom of Kabbalah differs from all the other methods because we use all the forces of nature, including the egoistic force. Nothing is left outside my correction. I absorb all the negative and positive forces and unite them in a symbiosis, a special bundle, thanks to which I ascend the spiritual ladder.

Question: What is the difference between a group for Kabbalah students of ten people and a sect whose purpose is to exploit its members?

Answer: A group of Kabbalah students is based on absolute pure love and in such a group you don’t obey those who manage it but only its spiritual goal. Therefore it is up to a person whether to join it or not.

In a sect, on the other hand, there are many conditions; it is very limited and closed, has its distinct ideology, and the closer one gets to the center of the sect, the more and more hidden it becomes. A sect also has typical rituals such as prayers, meditations, etc. Such things are not part of studying the wisdom of Kabbalah.

A group of Kabbalists is not closed. It is based on the principle of mutual love, honesty, warm-heartedness, mutual inclusion, and mutual help according to the principles of Kabbalists and the sources that are studied. The only ritual it encourages is sharing a meal.

There are no conditions as to religion, race, or a nationality. A person who wants to join the group is accepted and if he wants to leave, he can do so. Everything is open and free; all the study materials are available on the Internet in every language; there is no barricade or separation.

The wisdom of Kabbalah encourages the unity of all mankind in mutual love and good mutual relations without any coercion, equally for everyone and with everyone.

Question: Is the soul transferred genetically?

Answer: The soul is not transferred to anyone, doesn’t disappear, and is not born. The soul is a permanent component a person has that he has only to discover inside him. It exists in each of us like a point, like a drop of semen, which we have to develop. When it develops, a person sees that he doesn’t have to do anything with it since it is perfect and perfectly compatible with his other attributes.

Question: When I study The Book of Zohar I feel a strong emotional struggle. Do I imagine that or do the letters have an effect on our feelings?

Answer: You influence what you are learning. It alters you, squeezes, twists, and changes you internally, and rightly so. As a result, your perception will become more three-dimensional. Continue and you will see how it makes a person more versatile.

Question: I used to be a Protestant and lived in a monastery for four years. Fate brought me to the wisdom of Kabbalah, and when I enter a monastery today I have different feelings. The study of The Zohar has brought me closer to my soul and led me to find a group in which I can develop. Could the study of Kabbalah lead me to another place in life?

Answer: Perhaps, but it makes no difference. You will continue to develop and will constantly be critical of what is revealed to you. Try to look at yourself from the next level, from an upper level, so that you will not continue to develop on the same level that is managed by your mind and your desires and you will not be wrong. Good luck!

Question: Do all our troubles stem from that fact that we remain on the level of the corporeal body and have not been taught to be human?

Answer: Yes, all the troubles we feel are because we have not yet received the right education.

Question: Is an illness a sign that the person has diverted from the right path?

Answer: No, an illness is a sign of the wrong connection with other people in a single system in which we all define one another. We exist in a state called mutual guarantee. My state doesn’t depend only on me but also on everyone else and how I affect everyone.

Question: How do you know if you make the right choice?

Answer: It can only be solved in the group. The right choice can only be if we yearn for unity in our group and thus want to influence the world.

Question: How should I behave with those around me who pull me to a lower level? Should I ignore them or descend to their level for a while? Will I have enough strength to rise again from that level?

Answer: You will need a few other friends to raise the others from a lower level to a higher one. An individual never has enough force to rise again. It can only be done together with others.

Question: Do only people with the point in the heart have free choice or do religious priests, politicians, and scientists also have it?

Answer: Free choice is given to simple people, to the masses. However, those who hold high social positions, like great scientists and politicians, upon whom the destiny of other people depends, freewill is taken. All those who are called world leaders are merely puppets on a string and have no free choice whatsoever.

Question: Is there a reason for living like a Tzaddik in the sense of physically observing the Torah and Mitzvot (commandments) without searching for the Creator?

Answer: All over the world, humanity is heading toward discovery of the Creator. And for this purpose it is absolutely clear that it is necessary to begin to get closer to each other and include all the egoism in this rapprochement.

Therefore it is not enough to be a Tzaddik in the physical sense. In addition, today we are not in such serene conditions as before. Ego has grown in every one of us, and it is up to us to correct it fundamentally so that instead of rejecting each other, we must connect among us. This is our work.

Question: Can a person who realizes himself through the wisdom of Kabbalah independently change his fate?

Answer: Certainly, when a person realizes himself, he begins to understand why he acts the way he acts, why he is managed like this, and what the consequences of his actions are. It is not easy to reach this, but he can attain a state in which he will adhere so much with the Creator that his influence on the Creator and the influence of the Creator on him become absolutely transparent to him.

Question: Through being involved with the wisdom of Kabbalah, can a person change his attitude toward the world as well as change events that haven’t happened in our world yet?

Answer: The results of the events are always the same: the correction of the person. Let’s say that I’m in school, and it makes no difference how I behave and what I do, I must graduate. I could be beaten, left behind a second year as a punishment, or on the contrary, be encouraged, but in any case, I must finish school.

Question: Isn’t the desire to reach revelation of the Creator in the best way also an egoistic desire?

Answer: Of course, everything begins from an egoistic desire to escape suffering. However, then we begin to understand that the characteristic of bestowal, unity, and altruism is above all else.

This understanding leads to the fact that we begin to work with Upper Light, which corrects and changes us to such an extent, it makes no difference to us what we receive in exchange for our work. Being in the property of bestowal is above our egoistic nature. This is a great reward.

Question: What is the revelation of the Creator? Does it happen when you transcend the Machsom (barrier)? Is it the exit to a new dimension?

Answer: The revelation of the Creator is the revelation of the one general desire in our unity, above our personal egoistic forces.

Question: You say that the Creator only wants what’s good for us, but how can He want anything? Is He alive?

Answer: This is how, in our feelings, we perceive nature’s (the upper force’s) attitude toward us.

Question: How does the wisdom of Kabbalah explain Spinoza’s theory that God is nature?

Answer: God is everything, and everything is nature.

Question: Why do you speak about the upper forces and not about the God if the wisdom of Kabbalah relates to the Bible?

Answer: The word “Creator” refers to the general upper force of nature, which is called the upper force since it is above everything in its power, volume, and size. It is the force of goodness, the force of giving and bestowal, which determines everything and includes all of the force of nature.

We can discover, understand, and attain this force. Therefore, it is called Creator, Bore, stemming from the Hebrew words  “Bo – re” – “come and see.” We cannot understand what the Torah says unless we reveal it because it isn’t about faith.

We must learn how to read the Torah because it is written in a very accurate, concrete, but secret and allegorical language. Therefore, it isn’t a historical novel, but a code that can be deciphered only by studying the wisdom of Kabbalah. The Book of Zohar is the commentary on the Five Books of Moses (the Torah). We can begin to understand The Book of Zohar by studying the wisdom of Kabbalah and thus understand the Torah.

We don’t use the name God so as not to confuse the students by associations with what they previously imagined the upper force to be and the fact that there is seemingly a God in the image of man who sits up there looking at us, seeing everything and managing us. The upper force is within us, between us, filling the entire space. This is the field we speak of. It isn’t a corporeal field, but a spiritual one that is on a higher dimension, a field that contains everything and affects everything, a field of goodness.

Question: What happens to a person when he transcends the Machsom (barrier)? Does he enter a new dimension?

Answer: Yes, a person exits his egoistic intentions and enters altruistic intentions, which enables him to feel what is external to him, outside of his natural perception.

Question: What actually happens to a person?

Answer: It is the revelation of a new dimension in new attributes of love and bestowal that are above human nature that a person acquires by his efforts to connect to the friends who study the wisdom of Kabbalah with him in a group. The change that takes place in a person is actually a person’s spiritual birth and the attainment of the soul.

Question: According to what criteria is it possible to determine whether a person is going in the right direction?

Answer: If a person carries out what is written in the wisdom of Kabbalah—meaning that he works in a group correctly, making an effort to connect with his friends in order to attract the Upper Light—this means that he is going in the right direction.

With a good connection that is created between him and his friend, he discovers the system of higher management because everything that there is in creation is discovered between ten friends, only in miniature form. Their connection is built like a hologram. There is one big picture within which it is possible to take out some part and see the full picture within it, but on a smaller scale.

In the same manner, we take a group that is composed of ten people (ten small Sefirot), and they attain everything that exists in creation within it, but in a small form. Certainly, we don’t see details and particulars there, but if we join an additional group of ten with this group of ten, our field of vision will grow, and in this manner we can expand the perception of our reality. Our task is to discover the system of creation.

Question: Did you study in a group of ten?

Answer: I learned through a different method, one on one with my teacher. This was a different system through which, in its time, it was possible to prepare a person to continue the work. Studying alone is much more difficult and complicated than studying in a group, but this was necessary because this made it possible for me to acquire the training method.

Today, there is no longer a need for this method. I am sure that I was the last who received knowledge from his teacher like this, whereas now the world has crystallized as an integral system so that starting from our generation and on solitary Kabbalists are not required.

Question: According to the wisdom of Kabbalah, we shouldn’t waste energy on attaining temporary corporeal desires. My daughter absolutely refuses to have children because it takes up vital resources. Is she right?

Should we expend energy on giving birth to the next generation?

Answer: This is a very logical and relevant question today. A person who gets married in his 30’s will have to take care of his family in the following 20 years until his children grow up and are able to take care of themselves and become independent. This means that instead of spending the best years of his life on his spiritual development, he has to dedicate them to bringing up his offspring, not knowing what they will live on and how they will make their living in the future.

Is it worth it? We may say that according to our current lifestyle humanity has to make sure that it continues to exist. People have to work and to invest their energy in having a family and bringing up their kids and, at the same time, they should implement the wisdom of Kabbalah in their spiritual development.

The wisdom of Kabbalah wasn’t given to us so that a person could study for 24 hours a day or during all the time he doesn’t work. By providing all his basic necessities of living, working, and having a family, he will fulfill the connection between himself and the rest of the world as the system of creation and nature require.

The wisdom of Kabbalah is a practical science. Some who study engage in it as a profession. They begin to work with the population, become instructors or Kabbalah teachers. The ratio of ordinary teachers in our world compared to the population is one teacher for every fifty people, while the number of Kabbalah teachers is much smaller, and without them we will not be able to manage in the future.

Our aspiration is reaching the point of having  a great number of Kabbalah teachers so that for every 50 people in the world, there will be one Kabbalist who will lead their team, teach, and take care of that group. Gradually all of humanity will be divided into different groups headed by a Kabbalist teacher. These teachers need to continue studying, developing, and improving their skills, while ordinary people will have to fulfill what they have received like a student who graduates from school, leaves his teachers, and implements what he has learned.
