Question: How do Kabbalists communicate with the upper world?

Answer: Kabbalists exist in it, however, not as people, but as souls. After all, a Kabbalist is a person who has transformed his egoistic desires into altruistic, which are called his soul.

A soul is not something ghostly descending like a cloud from somewhere. It is not connected with the body. These are desires directed towards love and bestowal.

A person can sense the upper world, the system of the governing forces, within his corrected desires called the soul. The one who fills this world with pleasure is called the Creator. Everything is very concrete–in one place.

Question: And what is the Kabbalist doing in this upper world?

Answer: He is enjoying it.

Question: You speak about the upper system that controls our life. Will it help me succeed and improve my life and my fate if I begin to study the wisdom of Kabbalah and learn this system more deeply? Will I be able to control my fate?

Answer: On the whole, the wisdom of Kabbalah allows a person to discover what is going on and how to improve his life.

Then, with everything that he has learned, he can be on several levels of mutual cooperation, or he may know what happens and remain passive as he continues to flow with the current of life. But at least he acquires some peace of mind and understanding of why things happen, that everything has its own account, and where everything stems from. This is a great support for a person.

There are many such people. We cannot say that everyone reaches the level at which they can manage their life after studying the wisdom of Kabbalah.

There are those who don’t settle for passive study and who advance into greater depths. They actually can attain a state in which they improve their lives and manage it by themselves.

We are interested, of course, that people will advance to this level and that we will have such students who advance until the ultimate goal, but it all depends on the person himself.

Question: Why do I sometimes have outbursts of unwarranted aggression and rage toward people?

Answer: It is because you feel that you are an egoist, and you are unwilling to accept it internally.

This aggression gradually will switch to love of people, but it will take a long time and many years of studying the wisdom of Kabbalah. So I recommend you start now since, otherwise, you will not be able to get rid of this aggression.

You are the one who suffers from the fact that you are so aggressive toward people. You hate people and relate to them harshly, and hate yourself because of this attitude. You don’t want to be in this position, but you cannot get rid of it either.

Question: Are particular skills and abilities required for attaining the wisdom of Kabbalah?

Answer: No, only a desire is needed.

Question: Are there people in our world who have reached the upper world?

Answer: Certainly, today in our world there is a certain number of people who have attained the spiritual world. In addition, many are engaged in our system and are on the way to attainment.

In the previous generation, these were people who studied the wisdom of Kabbalah under the guidance of my teacher Rabash.

Before then, there were people who studied Kabbalah under the guidance of his father Baal HaSulam. And even earlier, if we go deeply into history, there were great Kabbalists from whom remain great writings for us. They all were involved with the discovery of the system of management and the way to use it in the way most beneficial for all of humanity.

There were even hidden Kabbalists who didn’t write books and didn’t have students. Their role was to create contact between our level and the higher level. In the sources, they are called the 36 hidden Tzaddikim (Righteous Ones). However, 36 is a symbolic number.

Question: I cannot go above reason. Doubts and concerns “drill” my brain… Eventually, I find answers to my questions, but who knows if they are correct.

My question is: What are the cases where I should go above reason? Never in my life would I not trust you, dear teacher, just like that, not agreeing with everything you say, but extremely speculatively. And where I do not understand, such as Talmud Eser Sefirot, I’ll simply trust your words because when it comes to things that I do not comprehend, it is as you say, anyway. It is faith above reason?

Answer: No, because when there is no knowledge there is no faith that can be built “above reason.”

Question: What is the soul and how is it born?

Answer: A soul is a certain space inside a human being in which one senses the upper world.

In an ordinary person living in this world, there isn’t a soul; there is only a point, an embryo, a drop of semen, from which develops the speaking level.

If one starts developing him or herself, submitting oneself to the Upper Light’s influence, the Light transforms the drop into a soul that develops from our Reshimo (spiritual informational record).

Question: Does a soul have a gender?

Answer: No. There are various modifications of the soul, but it doesn’t really matter. Each one of us has a soul. But at the same time, there is one common soul for everyone.

Question: How do we calculate the number of souls? Is it possible that is an excess of them?

Answer: What does “an excessive of souls” mean? The soul does not exist apart from a human being. If one develops it internally, then one has a soul. If not, one doesn’t have a soul. Each one of us is granted a chance to cultivate a soul and feel the next level of existence, the future world.

Question: What do souls do after death?

Answer: Souls do not die and have nothing to do with life or death of a physical body.

Question: Why can’t the Kabbalists describe the spiritual world in such a way that we can understand that it is worth aspiring to it?

Answer: The problem is that it is impossible to describe the spiritual world because none of its properties or sensations exist in our current desires. The laws of the spiritual world do not coincide with the laws of our world.

Therefore, Kabbalists describe the upper world using a special language, the language of branches, which is not intended to provide an explanation because we still cannot even imagine this world, or depict it in our egoistic properties.

For example, your computer has one program and suddenly you receive an email composed in a different program that you don’t have. Whatever you do, you won’t be able to receive this message.

Instead, it will open as confusing information in the form of various characters. You will not understand what was sent to you. You will not be able to absorb it or receive it in your computer.

The same is happening here. The Kabbalists tell us something about the upper world, but we look at them like an animal looks at the human. In order to understand them, one needs to obtain the property of the upper world, and then it becomes clear what they convey.

Question: How do you solve personal conflicts with people?

Answer: I know that many don’t agree with me, but I am always willing to listen to anyone. I see that people don’t understand me and this arouses a feeling of hostility and rejection in them.

But I don’t feel any hatred towards them, and this is in something that corrects me.

According to what I am learning about the disclosure of the upper management, and accordingly my ability to change, I change.

I justify people who don’t understand me; I am not coming to them from above. I truly understand their nature.

Question: How does our reality help us advance in spirituality? Can we consciously pay attention to any signs so that we can advance according to them?

Answer: There is only one sign that clearly shows that a person can begin to engage in attaining the upper world. It is the emergence of the most serious question about the meaning of life and the yearning for the world that will help him know what he lives for. Otherwise, he simply has no reason to live! It isn’t indifference or depression, but a yearning to discover the essence of our existence.

In this state, it seems that a person cannot do anything, “Leave me alone! I don’t want anything.” But this isn’t a descent—although it may be what we expect—but a state in which he is drawn upward toward where he can attain the source of his existence, the source of life.

Question: Will everyone feel the yearning for the search of the meaning of life, for reaching the upper world?

Answer: Gradually, more and more people in each generation feel the need to discover the upper world. Forty years ago when I began studying Kabbalah, very few people were interested in it. And today there are hundreds of thousands. I hope that there will be millions in the near future.

We see this in the number of people who are depressed, use drugs, and are detached from life. These are all signs of the lack of meaning in life.

So I think depression is a normal disease because a person’s physiology is healthy while his psychology, which means the soul, begins to feel the need of spiritual search.

Question: Does Kabbalah teach the correct attitude to all kinds of events occur during the day?

Answer: Kabbalah does not teach how to navigate your way in this life, but how to find the entrance to the upper world, to identify where the door is that I will open in order to enter it.

Question: What if I’m interested in corporeal life? Let’s say I have a problem with the bank.

Answer: Kabbalah deals with the upper management and helps a person to create such signals to our world that then his life in this world will also start to change.

The method helps us to pass from our world to the next higher state. It depends how we use this method. Someone uses the wisdom of Kabbalah from the top down, and some from the bottom up. But most important is that we direct the connection to the upper management that engages in our world and also the spiritual world.

Question: And who arranges our physical problems?

Answer: We are talking about the overall management system, and if you attain it, you will see how you are surrounded, managed, and with this you will understand how to manage it yourself.

A person begins to understand what the essence of his or her free choice is, and where one is enslaved. He discovers that until this moment, in fact, he had no free choice in life; all his movements were compelled; he was completely programmed.

But now, he can exit from this slavery to freedom, to the extent he begins to recognize, understand, and realize the highest management program. He begins to connect with it to merge, and to enter it as a free element, as a factor in the equation.

And all his problems in material life: the choice of a profession, the country of residence, a life partner, etc. will be resolved by themselves.

A completely different system of values will appear in him that will change his plans.
