We are at the final stage of the development and correction of humanity called the last generation. This is a special mission of the souls that are now undergoing correction and must enter the sensation and revelation of the upper world of the Creator and take all of humanity with them.

Before our time, there were many Kabbalists, but they attained the Creator individually, except for the special group of Rabbi Shimon. There were no other groups at all, just a few individuals who passed on the chain of this knowledge further and further.

Today, there are small Kabbalistic groups here and there working in different ways. Of course, I wish them success since any action is a joint action that awakens the common soul and leads us to complete correction. So individual successes still affect the overall success; therefore, it is very joyful to see the emergence of such groups.

But we are the first group that works for general dissemination within Israel and throughout the world for the sake of all of humanity. We represent, as it were, the brightest part of all souls, called the last generation.

Therefore, new properties are revealed in us according to the conditions we must fulfill to correct the whole Kli—the entire soul of Adam.

So we have a special account with the Creator. But for this, we must expand our ranks and disseminate more and more because dissemination is one of the conditions for our spiritual elevation.

In other words, the group is built in such a way that without dissemination, it immediately narrows and falls. Our whole life is only in dissemination, in growing, in constantly attracting new friends to us, and thus lead all of humanity to overall correction.

Moreover, this process is exponential. So, it does not matter to us how far we are from the goal today, as it seems to us. The main thing is to achieve the goal, and everyone else will gradually join us. They will begin to raise us to the extent that we start to rise.

Question: In his notes “The Last Generation,” Baal HaSulam says that nothing can be done by force, it must be through public opinion. He explains why the altruistic system did not work in the Soviet Union. That social system collapsed because it lacked an element of the upper force. How can this be explained to people so everyone has a common understanding?

Answer: Only through gradual learning.

Comment: Baal HaSulam says that education will not help either. We saw what positive education there was in the Soviet Union.

My Response: No, it should be different. Education should be based on what people feel, where it leads, and how all layers of society support it.

In other words, education and public opinion are tools. But there must be a higher value: why we want to build such a society.

We must understand that humanity’s development has a purpose, which, as Baal HaSulam writes, is to achieve adhesion with the Creator. That is our work. If we do not explain this to people, we will not be able to accomplish anything.

Question: Baal HaSulam, in the article “The Last Generation,” writes that all of humanity should come to an altruistic society, not just one country, because today we are all interconnected in a global system. But some countries adhere to a nationalist trend, separate themselves from others, and try to create an independent economy, and some of society wants to have a global system. How do you see it?

Answer: I believe everything will gradually become a global system. Our interdependence will lead us to this.

Question: Does it mean cosmopolitanism is the correct form?

Answer: Yes.

Question: But if you look at the body’s structure, each organ still has its properties. How can we avoid losing the national values inherent in every nation?

Answer: Each nation will keep its own, and no one will interfere there. We are referring only to the proper redistribution of income and wealth between segments of the population and between countries.

In the article “The Last Generation” Baal HaSulam explains that the biblical principle of love your neighbor as yourself will manifest itself in our world in the future in a social system called communist altruism in which most people will become altruists—not naturally, but after correcting their egoism.

This will be manifested in the fact that they will work for society 12 hours a day and enjoy it.

Question: Actually the picture is not very cheerful. It is hard to imagine that people will work so many hours. On the contrary, they say that, in principle, people will work less, a couple of times a week for three or four hours or even less than that. Perhaps it all depends on what will be considered work?

Answer: Yes, the fact is that there will indeed be much less work, people will work less, but they will have other activities. They will engage in self-improvement. This will be considered their work.

Question: In several articles Baal HaSulam analyzes and criticizes the communist system, which, in principle, corresponds to a primitive communal system, that is, life in communes. He says that we will return to this state anyway. How can you explain this?

Answer: The thing is that in primitive communities people were governed by completely different forces. People felt equal and no one had any surplus.

What they extracted from nature in the form of food or plants, they used immediately.

They had no desire to hoard because everything would spoil, and if there was any excess, they would simply give it to the common fund.

According to Kabbalists the kind of social system that should exist in the last generation is that everyone works, everyone understands that they depend on everyone, and no one runs away from their responsibilities; on the contrary, everyone strives to contribute what they can.

First, there must be a small establishment whose majority are altruists (Baal HaSulam, “The Last Generation”).

That is, these are not just natural altruists, but people who were egoists and corrected themselves.

Question: What does a small group mean? Is it enough to have a hundred people, or should it be several tens of thousands?

Answer: This is not a matter of chance. There should be a serious group of people who have the right to apply their knowledge, powers, and laws to other people.

I think several hundred to several thousand people are enough to begin implementing altruistic principles.

Question: They will probably act as an ideological group. Should the entire nation be involved in the implementation and then the entire world?

Answer: The implementation should occur gradually throughout the entire country. Everyone should be involved in it to the best of their ability.

Question: Baal HaSulam writes that people are divided into two types: 10% are altruists and 90% are egoists. What is the root of this division?

Answer: This stems from the properties of nature. The light, when creating the vessel (Kli), forms it from ten Sefirot (emanations, parts). The uppermost part is Keter, the pure property of giving. Then come Hochma, Bina, Hesed, Gevurah, Tifferet, Netzach, Hod, Yesod, and Malchut, which is the part most opposite to the property of giving.

Therefore, between Keter, the property of complete giving, and Malchut, the property of complete receiving, are all our other properties. Based on this, we can say that 10% of people living on Earth strive or would like to live in a society of giving, love, and mutual assistance.

Question: And 90% are pure egoists who only want to use others?

Answer: Not entirely pure, but generally inclined toward egoism to a greater and greater extent depending on what dominates in them: egoism or altruism. Nevertheless, closer to  Malchut are those parts of humanity that possess enormous egoism.

Question: The idea of ​​transforming the egoistic nature of a person into an altruistic one with the goal of achieving adhesion with the Creator looks beautiful.

But I do not understand how this idea can be conveyed to the masses? To whom? This is an educational process, not just something you tell a person and that is it. The educational process is in the hands of the exploiters, and this is not beneficial to them.

Answer: I think that the educational process of a general type, the one that spreads to the entire system of humanity, is in the hands of the Creator.

Therefore, Baal HaSulam and other Kabbalists write that we are obliged by all means to begin dissemination and lead humanity to this goal as quickly as possible, to explain to it what awaits us if we follow this path correctly and what awaits us if we act incorrectly. We have a clear instruction, and we must follow it.

There is such a force in nature that knows how to lead and develop humanity, we just need not interfere with it and rely on it.

To rise from our animalistic, egoistic level, we need to strive for the next level—the altruistic human being.

We can achieve this either through immense suffering that forces us to reach the goal or through our own efforts when we know what lies ahead and understand the forces of nature at our disposal. Then we can help ourselves and bring ourselves to absolute coexistence.

Question: Should the aspiration to the higher degree, to the Creator, be like fuel throughout this stage? Otherwise why would 90% of egoists suddenly want to change their nature and care for society more than for themselves? They need some motivation. Can the upper force be this motivation?

Answer: Of course.

Question: But how can this happen if it has not been manifested until now? Even religions have not helped although they claim that the Creator is goodness and love.

Answer: Religions operate on a very low level. Moreover, they have already disqualified themselves if I may say so.

Comment: But in the early stages, they really did help humanity; otherwise, we would be like animals.

My Response: Yes, without religion we could not have existed; that is clear. Then began the thousand-year long process separation of religion from progress, from the changes in mankind, up to the creation of educational institutions where natural sciences and Kabbalah are studied.

Today, we have reached a state where we can calmly explain to all people on Earth, without any prohibitive restrictions, what Kabbalah is, why it is needed, how to master it, and what can be achieved with its help.

Question: According to Baal HaSulam, humanity is divided into the enterprising and the laggards who make up the majority. Regardless of the social system, a small part of the enterprising will always exploit the laggards.

Why is there such a division? How can this be related to the purpose of creation?

Answer: Such inequality is based on the correspondence of a person with those periods that he must go through in his development in order to achieve the goal of creation. It depends on generations, on the degree of connection between people, and is a process of correction.

That is, we must be in different states in order to gain some kind of life experience.

Question: Does it have to be imprinted in every soul?

Answer: Yes, and it needs to be able to be directed correctly.
