Freedom is a state where a person rises above all restrictive limits and from the point of view of his inner freedom gives everything to society. This is what gives him the opportunity to feel absolutely free and not limited by anything.

If he can give everything possible for the benefit of society, then this is his main purpose of living. This gives him fulfillment. He does not feel any restrictions from egoism because he uses it in order to bestow.

Question: Does it mean that a person in the future society will not feel any restrictions?

Answer: No, he lives in another dimension, in the dimension of bestowal—not reception. He as if changes his nature.

The society of the future is the happiest and most perfect society of all possible and existing. Humanity is already destined for happiness.

The main criteria for such a society are connection between people, love, mutual responsibility, and unity. Nothing else, everything is very precise and clear.

Question: Is it possible to have a perfect society in one confined place?

Answer: History knows a few attempts to create such a society by a group of people in some particular places. This idea did not succeed and this society did not last long. Creating such a society must derive from continuous expansion until it becomes the only one on Earth.

If a society becomes isolated in its own happiness, it eventually collapses. Throughout the development of mankind, there have been perfectionists who wanted to bring the whole world to happiness or to do it in a particular area. But they did not succeed.

One may be diligent, but no person shall enjoy the society more than the backward. There will be an equal standard of living for all (Baal HaSulam, The Writings of The Last Generation).

A necessary condition for the existence of a future society is an absolutely equal income, payment and supply. Everything that everyone has should be the same as others have, but in accordance with the personal needs and tastes of a person.

That is, one can be satisfied with two kilograms of something, and for the other 500 grams is enough. One needs, say, special clothes and shoes, and the other does not need them. Everyone will receive everything as much as is necessary for him.

Question: Will a person think about the things he will receive from his actions in society?

Answer: In such a society, everyone thinks only about bestowing to others. It depends on the education, on how much society itself influences a person. And society will think about him and provide him with everything he needs.

The balance between reception and bestowal will be set by the person himself because the most important thing for him is to receive what is necessary from society and feel that it is completely sufficient.

A person will be feeling the balance internally, the fact that his bestowal is equal to reception.

Question: Who is the driving force behind the changes in the society of the future: leaders, youth, scientists, or people?

Answer: Education that permeates all layers of society. It should be built in such a way that everyone cares about the balance between reception and bestowal.

All people are created as different, and therefore, everyone is given the opportunity to realize themselves as much as possible for the benefit of others.

Question: Does a person feel these differences? If I am 100% in the desire to bestow, then in theory I should not even feel them.

Answer: Everyone feels equal to others although they can work much less than others. After all, everyone is required to participate in the common work within his capacities.

A person does not feel himself as bigger or smaller relative to others and does not feel discomfort in the difference.

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.

Question: Kabbalists talk about this concept of building a society where everyone is united. How do they envision it?

Answer: First of all, we must fully recognize the evil of egoism. But once we realize this, what then?

Let’s say I understand that there is nothing in the world but evil. Can I replace it with an opposite quality?! After all, there is either a force of attraction or a force of repulsion. We are either giving or receiving. Can I work in a mode of giving instead of receiving? No this is our nature.

But it turns out that there is a force in nature that can change us into the opposite and simply transform us. Today I work only in the receiving mode: where, what, and how to receive. Not to mention, I want to do it more comfortably, more cheaply, with less effort and while giving less and receiving more because this is the formula for my whole life and my activity at every level: physiological, mental, spiritual, whatever.

Can I really change myself? Yes. There is a force in nature that created egoism. It can have such an effect on us that it will change us toward the opposite direction. And suddenly, instead of always acting according to the formula “give less and take more,” we will begin to live according to another formula: “The connection between us is the most important thing and it determines all my actions.”

That is, my actions will be aimed at being as connected as possible with others, not receiving for myself, and uniting with everyone. At the same time, I will discover myself and the whole of nature as one single entity. And if this single whole is not connected together, then it will become more and more destructive and eventually destroy me just like cancer destroys the body.

If I understand this clearly, I will have no option but to find a way to change myself and connect with others. Now, when we are approaching a global catastrophe and because the whole world is externally connected and everyone depends on each other, we are simply obliged to do this.

And here Kabbalah becomes revealed, saying: “There is such a force in nature. This is the same force that created your egoism and keeps influencing it. It can affect your ego and make such an inversion instantly. If you understand that you have to be interconnected with others through good connections, this force will do all the work for you. How? Here’s a methodology for you.”

Then we will really be able to change the nature of man. Not ourselves or any political dictatorships, but the force that we invoke. We see this in the example of the Kabbalists who have been putting this into practice for many generations.

Today we are approaching a state where it can be done by all of humanity. And In this lies our bright future.

Question: What advice would you give to a leader or a manager who feels a desire for power? What should he do?

Answer: They should decide to conduct elections only according to the criterion of kindness and love of the candidate for power: what he wants to do, what kind of good deeds, and how he wants to fill the space subordinate to him with his love.

Comment: Usually he has an entire list of things he wants to do.

My Response: No! The list will not help here. It is necessary to constantly check his management:, every day, every week, every month, and every year. If it is not according to these criteria, he should be dismissed immediately.

And behind him there is a queue of people who will fight for kindness! A queue of people who want to show the power of love in relation to society.

From My Facebook Page Michael Laitman 2/20/22

Every deficiency, lack, or negativity we feel, every worry we experience, and every concern in our hearts, are only the results of the severance of the loving connections we once had with one another. This is why the only way to correct anything in our lives and in the world around us is to restore and improve our human connections.

When we move toward connection rather than toward separation and hostility, as is the case today, everything that seems threatening, menacing or empty, every ache in our hearts and every pain in our bodies will become positive, filled with joy, connection, and love. All we have to think about is changing our relationships from hostility to friendship.

Because we are different, we are stronger together and weaker apart. When we care for one another, the differences between us complement each other to form a whole, and wholesome society. When we are apart, they weaken us. This is why we needn’t try to make everyone the same, but rather caring, and leave our views and characters as they are. Then, the whole world will find its peace and harmony.

New Life 1328 – Rank Discrepancy In Organizations
Dr. Michael Laitman in conversation with Oren Levi and Yael Leshed-Harel

How can organizations ensure that employees at every level feel important and appreciated? While hierarchy is necessary, it can lead to comparison, competition, and separation between higher, middle, and lower workers. These obstacles can be overcome if everyone is included in working together toward a common goal.

Management should hold regular talks to emphasize that mutual benefit can be achieved only through the efforts and participation of every worker and all will prosper through working together. All are equal participants toward accomplishing the goal, and even simple work is essential. We are all mutually dependent, each one does their part for the good of the whole, and recognizes the value of each one’s unique contribution. Everyone is responsible for creating an environment where everyone is valued, where each one is greeted as a friend by all the others.

Upon entering the gate of the workplace, each one should peel off all their shells and enter with a warm heart and uplifted spirits for having been granted the opportunity to work together in common purpose.
This summary was written and edited by students of Kabbalist Dr. Michael Laitman
