Question: There is a kind of parallel between childbirth in the material and spiritual world. In our ordinary life, the very process of birth, the pain that a child experiences, also happens in the spiritual, or is it just an allegory?

Answer: This is not an allegory! It is not a very pleasant feeling, but serious external and internal work.

The one who is being born also helps himself get out from within, to escape from this dark realm. It already seems dark to him, he does not want to stay there, he twitches, beats inside, as if in a cage. Meaning, the former good womb of the mother becomes a prison for him.

At any stage of our development, the beginning something seems good to us, then we discover the bad in it and strive for something better. It is the same here. This is growth, awareness.

Question: So this is the development of the same egoism?

Answer: Not only egoism, but attainment, awareness, sensation, and connection with the upper. It is a symbiosis of all kinds of attainments, sensations, and qualities.

Comment: When you look at beginners that study Kabbalah, you see that they have a very strong desire to participate in various activities. But then it turns out that it is very difficult for them, and they do not know what to do with it.

My Response: We are going our own way. I do not pay much attention to either the new ones or the old. I take into account the general, optimal atmosphere that leads us to victory.

Can we go at this pace? We cannot go at a slower pace; it does not work out, then we immediately fall asleep. We will not be able to sustain a faster pace, and we will not be able to make these long-term efforts because everyone has a family and a job. But at this pace we can!

In principle, the world, its development and deep free fall into a crisis forces us to do this.

Question: How do we ensure there is no fanaticism on the part of the newcomers?

Answer: There can be no fanaticism since there are no conditions for it in spiritual work. No one rises above anyone, no one elevates anything to a cult, no one bows to anything. On the contrary, if people are looking for something sacred here, before which they can prostrate themselves, they do not find anything.

In Kabbalah, nature is a force that you need to catch in your properties, to become a saint yourself, to each and all together, rising above inner egoism. Therefore, in real Kabbalah, absolutely all opportunities to worship something are cut off. One can only use one’s nature to achieve a higher nature.

Comment: You have several students who regularly sleep in class. No matter what you do, they sleep.

My Response: That is their nature. For them, this is a normal state. There is nothing you can do here. It does not bother me.

Question: But you keep saying: “Wake each other up.” Does this apply to such states?

Answer: No, it does not apply to this! If they do this chronically, then they cannot do otherwise. They participate in all events: seminars, congresses, in everything, so I have no complaints about them.

Comment: I once tried to wake a person during a lesson to no avail.

My Response: He is internally disconnected anyway. He does not hear the lesson. He cannot concentrate or catch this wave like a radio receiver. It is necessary to give a person the opportunity to be present. If he cannot do it any other way, so be it.

Why do you think that he gets nothing out of it? He exists together with his friends in the same spiritual field, and this is his maximum participation.

Such is his state.

I do not want to compare him to an animal, he is no worse than us but bring a dog or a cat, they will nap next to you. This is the normal state of the animal organism: when it does not have to make an effort, it is napping.

Question: Why do you give more explanations during the study of the The Study of the Ten Sefirot than when reading The Book of Zohar? You say that before achieving spiritual attainment, students do not understand at all what is written in the TES.

Answer: It is not about whether they understand it or not. It is about what they think at the moment. When studying the Torah, that is, those texts that have concealed light, a person should think about how to extract this light. That is all.

When we begin to clarify, discuss, and debate that among ourselves, then all the time we subconsciously try to break the cover of concealment and attract the light so that it influences us more. We think about its impact, about how to put ourselves under this shower so that it pours out on us, envelops, penetrates, cleanses, and makes various switches in us.

When we talk about the Partzufim, the worlds, the Sefirot, and pronounce other definitions of the spiritual world, it does not matter that they are not clear to us. The main thing is that at the same time we want all this to happen to us internally. In our world, when someone talks to you, he thinks about what he will get from it, what benefits he will receive, and so on.

We should treat our conversations about the “Teaching of the Ten Sefirot” or the Book of the Zohar: what I have at the same time, what influences I attract to myself, how it can help me, and so on.

We should treat our conversations about the The Study of the Ten Sefirot or The Book of Zohar by thinking about what I have in this case, what influences I attract to myself, how can this help me, etc. One must always be “duplicitous” like this.

Comment: Your students believe that they are closer to understanding the upper force and closer to the Creator because they are on the path.

My Response: Yes, my students are closer to the Creator than anyone else. The rest of the world is terribly far from the Creator.

Question: But don’t you say that everything around is a manifestation of the Creator?

Answer: It is the entirety of nature! The Creator is a common law of nature, a common force. We are inside Him. If we say “There is none else besides Him,” then you cannot point to one thing.

The Creator is all of nature, including my “I,” except for the awareness that separates me from Him and which I must also connect with Him. This is our movement toward nature.

In principle, what are we created for? What is the current crisis? It is in order to connect our consciousness and our understanding with this very nature. Only in this we are different from it and, by identifying ourselves with it, we bring ourselves into full equivalence, into full integration, with the entire system.

This integration is called the complete correction of a person. This is what we have to come to. The current crisis shows us the reference points in which we have not yet reached integration.

The Creator is everything. This is the system in which we exist.

Question: Children have a very developed sense of attachment. Suppose a child went to his grandmother’s for the summer, rested, got used to it, and when he leaves, it is like he is being torn away from this forever. But the older a person gets, the easier it is to break these ties.

And for someone who studies Kabbalah, on the contrary, the task is to build up connections as quickly as possible so as not to get stuck in spiritual work?

Answer: Yes, but to do it using what is called “this world.” For him, the whole picture of the universe, the whole system is one, he does not break it. There is nothing to give up, to break away from. It is such an amazing discovery when it all comes down to one single world. And there is nothing superfluous, everything mutually includes and mutually complements each other.

Comment: Moreover, people have different attitudes toward attachments. For example, you can remember the car you sold for a long time, or you can quickly sell it and forget it.

My Response: It does not depend on whether a person is more sentimental or less sentimental, thinks quickly or slowly, but on how much he is engaged in higher or lower things. If he is engaged in high things, then the importance of lower things for him disappears very quickly.

Let’s say he changed cars, changed apartments, but his head is still occupied with some higher problem.

I traveled a lot to different countries. Do you think when I was driving that I felt that I was somewhere? If they told me: “You need to go out to take a photo or a video,” so I went out, walked along the Champs Elysees, or filmed in Berlin near the Reichstag, or in Italy next to the fountains. That is, I did what I was told, and was not eager to see the sights.

And not because I am indifferent to these places, I really love architecture and paintings. I am a man of this world and once I was seriously interested in them. But if you are captured by a higher idea, then all these cities and countries spin like a globe.

I remember how, as a child, when I could not go anywhere, “abroad” seemed to me some kind of magical world, something unrealizable, extraterrestrial. I sometimes remember my childhood performances when we lived behind the Iron Curtain. It is a small pity that today I do not have that aspiration, desire, admiration. Everything is being suppressed by the higher levels I am at, by what interests me now.

Question: It is natural for a person to share his grief or his worry with others, but is this not welcome in Kabbalah?

Answer: We should not share personal states because they are only yours and the Creator’s. If these states are only mine and the Creator’s, based on the root of my soul with Him, and yours is based on the root of your soul with Him, then we can simply harm each other.

Two souls cannot feed from the same point, they feed from two different points, each for itself. Therefore, in our world, it is impossible to openly consult and talk about our personal states, about how everyone progresses, how someone goes forward and reveals the Creator, the upper force, and the world. This is the same thing since the entire system of the universe in which we exist is called the Creator or nature.

In Kabbalah, it is not acceptable to share our inner states because each of us will confuse the other.

We can talk about family, children, and everything that exists in this world because these are all animalistic states at the animate level. In addition, it is possible to discuss, not our momentary states, but the general actions that each person should perform on the path to the Creator since there is a common methodology, theory, and practice of spiritual ascent and revelation of the Creator.

But I should not talk with anyone about my personal contact, and what state I am in with the Creator.

Question: Is it possible to say that the Creator plunged Himself into a state in which He perceives Himself as a creation?

Answer: No. All creations, in fact, are in one single, absolute, perfect state. In order for the creation to attain the Creator, it goes through all kinds of phases, which are called “exile,” so that they can attain from these phases of concealment, exile, and darkness the state they actually are in.

This can be compared to the way I deliberately make faces for my child as if I am angry, happy, suffering, or passionate about something in order to evoke all kinds of reactions in him, and he will begin to understand me better and develop.

Look at how many toys we invent, how many methods, not for the bodily development of children, but for their intellectual development. After all, if we did not do this, they would remain at the animate level as if they had been abandoned in a forest. How much humanity invests in kindergartens, schools, and education; this is a huge world!

All this is only in order to pull up a child who is born like a piece of meat, like an animal, and give him development. In just a few years, he goes through amazing revolutions inside himself and becomes a person who understands not what we understand, but more than that!

Can you imagine what is inherent in us from the very beginning?! What potential! All this is only thanks to the correct attitude to children.

Question: What is the difference between the method of Kabbalah and other methods? You say that in other methods there is no way to draw light.

Answer: It is not that they do not have the ability to draw light. If a person does not have a point in his heart, there is no basis for the development of his soul, so there is no way to prove or show something to him. He will not be able to discover by himself to know which method suits them and which does not. Therefore, people advance through trial and error.

We are constantly getting confused in this life, inventing something, believing that we exist in some kind of reality and for the sake of it. Then, if a point in the heart arises in someone, this person comes to Kabbalah and begins, from this point, to build a correct perception of reality in himself.

There are not many such people. To date, there are hundreds of thousands of them, maybe even a couple of million along with those who are interested and those who are on the periphery. But this is a very limited number of people.

All the others, who do not have the embryo of the real state, cannot develop it. They live like the billions of people in the feeling of this world that cannot really create a picture of the next level for themselves. They just exist in this world.

But what can they do? Gradually, under the influence of suffering, they will begin to feel their insufficiency and will join those who have a picture of the upper world. In this way, everyone will enter this picture because they will be connected by their desires.

Question: You said that we are not corrected to the extent that we can perceive the writings of Kabbalists. Everything that comes out of their mouths comes from the Creator. Does this mean that a person in spirituality cannot be wrong?

Answer: Kabbalists express what they attain. What they attain is part of the upper universe.

Of course, they may also be wrong. After all, any attainment consists of several parts: a part that I clearly know, a part that I feel only at the moment and am in it now, and a part that shines before me, i.e., my attainment in the future.

Therefore, it is impossible to say 100% that I will not make a mistake. Just as in our world there are people who understand more or understand less and attain more in-depth or less.

Let us say that I am talking through a computer connection right now. What do I understand about it more than a couple of buttons? And there are people who know about all these modems, switching frequencies, providers, and so on. There are those who develop these technologies, and they are already sitting in the future.

It is the same in spirituality. It all depends on the size of a person’s soul. It shows how much he will be striving to go forward.

Comment: But you said that the Creator speaks through the mouth of Kabbalists. They do not have their own calculations when they talk.

My Response: Yes. This means that they have attained the qualities of the upper world and speak based on these qualities.

There is no Creator except what they have attained and exist within it. It is as if the Creator broadcasts to us through them, as if through a mouthpiece.
