Torah, Deuteronomy 11:11: But the land, to which you pass to possess, is a land of mountains and valleys and absorbs water from the rains of heaven, …

The land of Israel is described very poetically, but the Torah is not referring to physical images.

Water, symbolizing the life-giving force, is the Light of Hassadim. This is exactly what is missing in order to revive everything, because the Light of Hochma—the Light of knowledge and power—is a very strong, tough, hard light. Clothed in the Light of Hassadim—the light of mercy and mutual connection—it connects the right and left lines.

They complement each other so easily and simply and interact with each other in such a way that we begin to feel ourselves as existing in another dimension in which almost all of the physical sensations of our world—distance, weight, and height—disappear.

An entirely different measure appears, a measure of the correct interaction is when you dissolve in two opposite forces, move between them along the middle line, and all of itself is revealed before you.

Question: Why is it written that this is a land of mountains and valleys?

Answer: The mountains symbolize the height of the Light of Hochma, and valleys are the expansion of the Light of Hassadim. These two parameters must be balanced with each other.

Torah, Deuteronomy 11:25: No man will stand up before you; the Lord your God will cast the fear of you and the dread of you on all the land upon which you tread, as He spoke to you.

A person shouldn’t be afraid of any desire that rises within him and seems to him unattainable and terrifying. All the fears and everything that the uncorrected egoism paints for him are worth nothing. They are required only to ensure that he attracts even greater appearance of the upper Light, which balances the uncorrected desires and rises even higher.

Such immense desires that are very hard to correct appear in a person on purpose. He ascends to the world of Infinity by correcting them.

Question: Does it mean that if he ascends, all the nations make way for him?

Answer: Yes, it happens exactly when he understands correctly how to attract the upper Light.

It is not easy to reveal the wisdom of Kabbalah today after 2,000 years of exile.

People come to study the wisdom of Kabbalah because the desire to discover the meaning of life is ignited in them. They look for something, hear something, and even without knowing what the wisdom of Kabbalah is, understand by a sixth sense that it is for them, and so they find us.

They begin to attend the group meetings and to study, each in their own way. Then they begin to participate in the study, in different events, in meals, and the force of the group begins to affect them.

It isn’t the force of an ordinary group, but a spiritual force. It shines on them as if through a magnifying glass and people begin to feel internal changes taking place in them

Even when studying at a university, in different courses, or when we study different psychological or so-called spiritual methods, we feel different changes inside us, in our mind or our feelings, but these are ordinary corporeal feelings.

Here on the other hand, we begin to feel the revival of egoism. A person who is very enthusiastic advances purposefully at first but then he begins to feel a kind of dullness, darkness, and weakness. Where does that come from? Why? For what purpose? Everything is lost; nothing is interesting anymore; he feels powerless… what is going on? Additional egoism has emerged in him, but there is no power in our world that can overcome it.

In order to overcome it, we have to receive the Light, the force from above, from the next state, from an upper state, from the upper world.

If we continue to study in a certain way and pull ourselves forward, we gradually exit this state and reach the next state, and then fall again and once again find ourselves in a lowly, hopeless state. We don’t understand where it’s from and how the egoism emerges, and once again we gradually crawl out of this state.

Thus, we undergo many descents and ascents; this is how the Upper Light operates on us.

A person’s spiritual path is like a cardiogram. We move up and down from plus to minus. These movements can be very frequent or may be rare. Everything depends on the intensity of our participation in the group.

Many don’t hold on and leave. If a person leaves, everything he has gained remains in him as a minus because the egoism was revealed in him so that he could ascend above it and eventually acquire the upper world.

But if a person studies for many years, he reaches a state, which is revealed in him as a great descent. During this descent that is caused by a special upper force on his specific level, he begins to feel that the only thing that can help him is the connection to the source of this force, to the Creator. He begins to demand the Creator. This is his first contact with the upper force.

A person begins to realize that the Creator caused his descent to this terrible state from above so he can actually equalize these two levels inside him and not be in a state of an ascent or a descent but actually connect the two.

Moreover, the lower level has to be like Malchut and the upper level like Keter, and the ten Sefirot between them. Then a spiritual Partzuf is created, or a soul, thanks to the fact that a person equalizes the two poles inside him into one.

In the past, he has undergone descents or ascents, and now he seems to cause a short circuit between them on himself, by focusing on “there is none else besides Him,” both in the positive state and the negative state. Everything he is given in the negative state stems from his positive state, and it is all in order to bring him to connection, to understanding the Creator, because he now can feel and understand his own internality on himself, his absolute state, and his uniqueness in his most negative and positive feelings. If a person attains this state, it can already be called the birth of the soul.

According to the wisdom of Kabbalah, in contrast to other corporeal methods, the problem is that the time a person has to undergo this process until he reaches this state can take even ten years. Kabbalists don’t hide this fact. One shouldn’t be afraid’ it is better to advance decisively in order to make one’s self a human being on the next level of human development in the upper world.

Torah, Deuteronomy 11:12: … a land the Lord, your God, looks after; the eyes of Lord your God are always upon it, from the beginning of the year to the end of the year.

If a person aspires to the middle line, he has no shortage of the right line or the left line. He always can balance them with each other and join them into the middle line.

“From the beginning of the year to the end of the year” means that a person closes all borders at the beginning and the end. He never has unfinished affairs, and the end of his work is always visible.

In other words, the right line comes to the aid of the left line and balances it into the middle line, and the middle line measures itself correctly in order not to be at full height, but only at two-thirds, called VAK. It is only in this way that a person can advance correctly.

All of the measurements will be before us, and we are never wrong in our calculations. This is the secret of the middle line that we need to master.

Question: Do states of ascent and descent happen equally among men and women or are they different for women?

Answer: The same adjustments and connections exist for men and women.

In our world there is a difference between men and women in materialistic circumstances, but in spirituality there is no difference.

Everything that we see in our world is completely irrelevant in spirituality, not food, sex, family, knowledge, control, or honor, or physical forces or special internal forces.

The materialistic ego is designed only to serve the perishable body, while in the spiritual world this is not so. In the spiritual world we receive an absolutely different egoism, which reveals the Creator to us.

Question: Can there be any contact with those who studied the wisdom of Kabbalah and passed away?

Answer: Our world is not a barrier when it comes to feeling the whole creation. You don’t feel the whole world now, the whole system, but you will be able to do so with time. An internal attribute will be revealed in you by which you will feel the whole universe while still living in this world.

Then you will leave this life and will feel the world not only through your body. The reason is that we don’t feel the upper world through the body but by senses that are created through the soul. When you leave the corporeal body, the soul doesn’t undergo any changes and will continue your spiritual path, your development, just the way it is even without a body.

Therefore, it is important that you discover the Creator once while living in your body and then you will be able to move onward.

Question: Will I be happy in the future?

Answer: You can be happy, not in the future, but today together with us if we all connect and make each other feel happy. If you don’t think about your own happiness but about the happiness of others, about what you want to give them, you will feel happy. You simply need to learn how to do it. It is impossible to attain happiness any other way.

Question: Is it possible to share happiness?

Answer: In our world it means tearing something off yourself and giving to another, while in spirituality if you share your happiness with someone, your happiness doubles. This is a wonderful opportunity to increase your happiness! Share it with others.

Question: Sometimes a person is afraid to be happy and to experience the feeling of happiness because he knows that it can fade away. How can we feel happy all the time and not be afraid?

Answer: Don’t be afraid of anything. If you gradually acquire the Kabbalistic method, you will get used to feeling that you are in a sea of the upper Light, of goodness, of happiness and wholeness, of love toward you. Try to feel it all the time and thus mutually cooperate with it. It is best to do it through your friends. Then you will feel that there is nothing to fear and that there is no evil in the world. We are in a sea of the Light of Ein Sof (Infinity).

Question: Is it possible to feel happiness while alone?

Answer: It is impossible when you are totally alone because the correction is only in a person’s connection with all of humanity, so that through the connection he can convey the upper Light to all of humanity. Then he resembles the Creator and can be His partner. It is important to be connected to others even virtually. This is also enough.

Question: How are time and space measured according to the wisdom of Kabbalah?

Answer: In the wisdom of Kabbalah, time is not measured with astronomic hours; rather, it is according to the number of spiritual states called ascents and descents.

Time is a function of the intensity and frequency of the integration of a person in a group. The group is an amplifier of the intensity of the Upper Light, and the frequency of integration grows accordingly. It is possible to move the same distance in ten years or ten minutes.

Spiritual distance is not measured according to parsecs, kilometers, miles, or inches, but by the difference in intensity between the egoistic levels.

Suppose a person is on a particular level and later on a higher level. The difference between the levels is the spiritual distance. What this means is that distance is the difference between the spiritual potentials of a body that is sometimes found in one state and sometimes in another state.

Question: What is the connection between time and egoism?

Answer: Time depends on the intensity of the operation of the ego. A person can accelerate or slow down time; it doesn’t change by itself. If a person doesn’t take any action, he doesn’t go forward in time. Therefore, spiritual time is equal to zero until a person begins to create it within himself. Time, like every other parameter, depends only on me.

When a person is within a group, the upper force, the Light is in the center of the group, and time is determined according to the strength of the longing that a person has for the center of the group. This means that time is a function of the strength of his longing.

Question: Does a person need to change himself or not?

Answer: A person needs to change himself in accordance with the Creator.

Question: What must I do if I am sick and tired of my delusion?

Answer: You have not yet begun to participate. It is up to you to apply it to your development.

Question: I am very much afraid that the higher system will punish me because of wrongdoings against other people. I torture myself because of this. What must I do?

Answer: It is absolutely forbidden to punish yourself and think about punishment that allegedly is waiting for you in the future. It is not. A person must think only about how to do something good for himself, for his soul.

Question: We know what a crime is in this world. What is a crime in the spiritual world?

Answer: In the spiritual world, there is only one type of crime: not moving closer to people to discover the Creator within them. There is only one commandment, that is, one good deed and an evil one. A good deed is when you pull together with other people and reveal the Creator in this approach, and an evil deed is an action opposite to this.

Question: You say, “By correcting ourselves, we correct the whole world,” but you yourself are changing, but wars continue. What can be done?

Answer: What can you do; I am not yet corrected.

Question: As one ages, why does a person become more and more lonely?

Answer: This is because no one needs him. We should make sure that people need us so that we could help them. If all goes well, you will not feel lonely.

Question: Are we “angels” to each other managed by the Creator without freewill?

Answer: We truly are angels to each other. But, when I come in contact with other people, learning from their properties, these properties being angels within them, then these properties come alive within me.

Question: It is physically difficult to communicate with people who get tired after a few minutes of conversation. Can the wisdom of Kabbalah help me?

Answer: Certainly, you will be talking more with each other and with the Creator.

Question: What does the wisdom of Kabbalah recommend for achieving maximal success in communication? How do you interpret the term, “communications genius,” a person who has achieved maximal success in communication?

Answer: Everything depends on the way that you imagine the surrounding world. If you look at everything as a theatrical performance behind which the Creator is standing, you will begin to relate to others like this, trying to connect with them and, through them, with the Creator. Then, everything will be simply wonderful.

Read the article “There is None Else Besides Him” and a few other such articles from the book Shamati, and you will find the correct attitude to people, and you will be all right.

Torah, Deuteronomy 11:18: …and bind them for a sign upon your hand…

The left hand is receiving and right hand giving. The hand that Tefillin is worn on is the weak left hand in order to tame egoism. It symbolizes the correction that a person should have on his upper spiritual degree.

This is a very high level in the world of Atzilut – Arich Anpin. There are Tefillin Jacob, Tefillin Rachel, Tefillin Leah, and Tefillin Israel.

Torah, Deuteronomy 11:18: …and they shall be for ornaments between your eyes…

Eyes are the quality of the level of Hochma in the head part of the world of Atzilut, meaning they are very high corrections. To reach such states we must do serious work on ourselves.

But there are also support programs that help implement a common program. It is like recording a new program on our desires. After all, nothing was created in the universe apart from desire. And the Upper Light gradually, like a laser, records the new program on our previous program without canceling the previous one.

In other words, all our egoism remains and just begins to work according to the different program. Therefore Tefillin, Tallit, and all other attributes symbolize the spiritual connections that we must restore between us over our shattered desire.

Question: Do these material attributes help us?

Answer: Unfortunately they just distract us. The fact is that by realizing commandments on the material level, a person thinks that he does everything required. However, it is good if along with performing physical actions that explanations are given: why, what for, and what is behind them, so they remind a person about his inner abilities of implementing the correction.

And it is bad if he thinks that by tying the Tefillin boxes he already fulfills the commandments.
