We should transfer the external earthquake into an internal shaking of the heart, that is, we should feel that everything depends on us, and this is how we will be able to correct them. If we all connect together, we will calm all the earthquakes, the earth will not be able to shake.

An earthquake occurs when tectonic plates shift relative to each other because breakage occurs between them and there is no connection. But if we humans connect with each other, then the entire earth will connect and become stable. There will be no more shocks. Otherwise, we will end up on a planet that is shaking all over.

We just need to get closer to each other with our hearts, nothing else is required. Bringing hearts closer together is what will correct the world.

To come to the congress with an open heart means to be ready to take into your heart every friend from every corner of the earth from where he came, as well as all those who for various reasons could not come. My heart is ready to accommodate everyone, and in the end, all of humanity.

The heart of every person is able to accommodate the whole world. When we hold the whole world in our embrace, it will not be able to be shaken by earthquakes or suffer from epidemics and natural disasters. Everything will be fine.

If we want to connect all our desires and all intentions together and direct them to one Creator, to one source, then we bring our world into a stable state. There will be no unpleasant shifts in it, and everything will move only to an even greater balance, smoothly, carefully, and slowly. We will live in a peaceful world. We can do it.

Everything depends on the person, but only when all of humanity will be like one person, and not billions of people, each of whom is pulling in his own direction.

Question: In this world, in this illusion, we are given the opportunity to connect together. By playing in connection with each other, do we thereby correct the spiritual?

Answer: In playing with unity, we call upon ourselves the surrounding light to the extent of its similarity, like children who play and thereby call upon ourselves a special force that develops them. This force exists in nature. If a child does not try to play, to do something, he or she does not develop.

The same thing happens to us according to the same principle. There is nothing supernatural here.

We are trying to unite, but we do it consciously. We know that we must call a higher power upon ourselves and we use all kinds of advice from Kabbalists for how to do this most effectively. Therefore, a group of ten people comes together with a certain intention and discusses those topics that bring us closer to the power of the light.

This is the light of reason, the light that fills us, and from which it becomes warm inside. This is how we operate.

You can call it a ritual, how the ancient priests caused some kind of phenomena, it does not matter. The main thing is that our actions should be aimed at challenging the positive force of nature, which immediately affects us and gradually, step by step, begins to purposefully change.

These actions become vital for you, because thanks to them you change, and it happens absolutely clearly. You feel how from time to time completely different realizations occur in you, an understanding of what is happening, and your relationship with other people, with the forces of nature. Moreover, you yourself begin to influence this force, attract it quite intensively, and change faster than all other people because they do not use this opportunity. This is what Kabbalah gives us.

Question: There is an area in Kabbalah called Kabbalistic geography. What is it?

Answer: Kabbalistic geography is not only the geo-science of the Earth and the consequences that the upper forces cause on Earth. It includes the study of our world, our universe, as a mold from the next, upper world. After all, from that degree, forces descend into our world that determine all corporeal parts: inanimate, vegetative, animate, and human levels and their interaction with each other.

Moreover, a huge number of forces are occupied by inanimate nature: an infinite number of stars, galaxies, planets, nebulae, and other celestial bodies. But, despite the quantity of these forces, their quality is scanty in comparison with the vegetative and animate nature that exists on Earth, and even more so with the level of “Human.”

That is, as more qualitative forces appear in our world from the spiritual world, their quantity in our world decreases accordingly, but their quality increases.

If we go further in this quantitative and qualitative influence and the similarity of the upper world to our world, then we can say that all the countries of the world, all the imprints on the surface of the Earth, are Kabbalistic geography, that is, they are the result of the influence of upper forces on our Earth, on its surface.

Everything that determines ecology, geography, topography on the Earth, and not only on it, but also underground to its center, everything that surrounds our Earth, all this is a consequence of these upper forces.

But the most interesting thing is that it relates to a person. Therefore, in Kabbalah, we study more about the connection between the Earth, its geography (climate and all kinds of geographical features) and those peoples who live on it, and from generation to generation moved by various means: either wars, or the discovery of lands, and so on.

As a result, the most interesting thing is, of course, the development of the people of Israel, since this ancient Babylonian group, practically a part of all humanity, carries the method of correcting it, raising it back to the upper level, from where all the forces that form our universe descend.

Question: When you had been with Rabash for 12 years could you see the changes taking place in the great Kabbalist?

Answer: You can’t see this. How can a small insignificant person, some kind of bug, crawling on the ground, appreciate the cosmos? It is impossible! These are completely different dimensions.

Do the students know who I am? They don’t know at all! They may be upset as they think I can do something for them but do not. They forget that everything depends on them.

They evaluate everything based on their properties and qualities; they constantly try to judge me based on themselves or them based upon me.

Comment: But there is an inner world that forms one’s external attitude to all things, including these.

My Response: No. You won’t understand or appreciate it. You can’t, it’s impossible! Trust me!

I have seen many Kabbalists who lived in the 70s, 80s, and 90s of the last century. After all, I have been studying Kabbalah for more than 40 years. These Kabbalists were outwardly simple, ordinary people: They loved jokes, humor, sports, and physical work. The only thing is they were very stubborn.

Question: But you do remember yourself during this period of your development. What changes occurred specifically in you?

Answer: It’s impossible to convey. And why? If someone is interested, he will make a spiritual transformation himself. And those not interested, will not care anyway.

After the exodus from Egypt, which symbolizes the beginning of the spiritual development of a person, there are 40 years of wandering in the desert. This wandering happens with the help of the light, with the help of the quality of bestowal, and constant resistance of egoism.

On the right side is the quality of bestowal, the Light—the revelation of the Creator—and on the left side is egoism, the Pharaoh, who is always resisting, and you are constantly restoring the control of the quality of bestowal, altruism, and love for others over the quality of egoism, self–love, and hatred for others.

Being inside Egypt is a state when, in general, you feel good in absolutely everything, except that egoism rules over you.

Today in our world we are experiencing the birth pangs, and therefore we begin to feel bad in corporeality. In principle, we go through a qualitative recognition of evil when everything is fine, but still we cannot put up with it. “What are you missing?! It seems like you have enough of everything. Some people have nothing to eat, but what is wrong with you?!” “No, I cannot stay with this. It is better to die than to live like this.”

This is the recognition of how unbearable the control of egoism is that we should feel. Then we will perceive the control of altruism, bestowal, and love as a way out toward freedom.

It cannot be expressed in words because we are talking about completely different levels of nature, different dimensions when we begin to feel everything that is happening in a completely different way.

There is a connection between the root and its consequence. Even at the lowest level here in the land of Israel, there is a special force because spiritual forces are in a very small form, but still are projected onto it. Each part of the Earth has its own properties. Therefore the spiritual world is divided into parts of the Earth.

For example, according to the influence of the upper force in the spiritual world, there is such a division as the land of Israel, then Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, Babylon, and the rest of the world.

The greatest force is felt in the land of Israel, even stronger in Jerusalem, even stronger on the Temple Mount, and even stronger in the place where there was a special room in which only the great Cohen entered once a year on Yom Kippur. This is all a set of all kinds of external attributes that speak of the very highest force and its so-called conical end.

It is impossible to describe in detail the difference, say, between Moscow and New York; both are considered to be practically on the same level regarding spirituality.

With regard to spirituality, only this difference is considered: Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, and Babylon. They are different from all other geographical places.

As for Egypt, this is the lowest place in the world in terms of the influence of the upper force. And in the future, of course, it will manifest itself in this way. Syria, Lebanon and Babylon (Iraq, Iran) will be opponents, but then all this will smooth out.

Therefore if we look at the forces that affect these lands and take them into account, then in the future we will have a completely different political alignment.

Question: You say that transitions from stage to stage are adaptations for receiving the force of bestowal so that it does not feel like hell to us. Does this period of preparation give us the ability to withstand the upper light that may seem terrible to an unprepared person?

Answer: Yes, of course. It seems terrible because it is the light of bestowal, the light of love. It is very difficult to bear.

Would you not run away from too much love, even if it is egoistic? It is very difficult to bear it. It takes possession of you, puts pressure on you, obligates you, and you are not able to just be “under it,” as they say. It suffocates, conquers, and deprives you of your freedom. We prefer freedom above love. Why do we need a love that takes away our freedom?

On the contrary, in spirituality there is no freedom without love and no love without freedom. After all, by connecting with everyone in common love, interconnection, mutual assistance, and complementarity, you gain unlimited freedom in this new connection.

Comment: Every person has his own natural qualities. You said that if a person is prone to violence, then he can use it in the right way, for example, in becoming a butcher.

My Response: All of our qualities can be aimed in the right direction. That is why I say correct egoism, but do not to destroy it, ask the Creator to correct our bad desires into good ones. That is, the desire remains the same but its usage changes.

Question: What are other examples in our life when a negative quality is used positively?

Answer: There are no such examples in our world. It is not about examples to other people.

When a person changes his qualities, he begins to feel the next level of creation, the universe, and exits squabbles with other people. Questions emerge in him of a different, universal type, which deal with eternity, perfection, and attainment of the harmony of nature.

Completely new depths of nature are revealed to him. While in this world, he begins to feel other worlds: transparent, extended, even I would say, the main ones. And our world as the smallest.

A person begins to penetrate into this and see the whole world in the form of forces and qualities. This is such a huge, three-dimensional, holographic mural in which he himself participates, and simultaneously creates these worlds and realizes that they are all inside him. After all, there is nothing else besides him.

Comment: Let us say that a person encounters hatred for others for the first time, ie., hatred for friends, and this blinds him.

He does not understand anything and does not know how to act. After going through this state several times, he understands that there is no need to do anything unnecessary here, and it is better to be silent and not interfere with anyone, otherwise you can cause harm.

But at the same time, it is slipping out of his control, and he still wants to vent his aggression. There are times when the mind understands, but the feelings experience something else.

My Response: This is how you go through these states. Trust me, you will pass them and will not remember.

Question: What is the next stage of the Kabbalist’s work? After all, you implement these states somehow.

Answer: I am trying to determine errors, obstacles, and opportunities for correction in these states. This is my work: to search where I can add and not lose the desire for getting closer to the upper force. In principle, this is my concern, fear, and inner worry: how to not lose any opportunity to advance a little more.

Question: What is the feeling of a person who is on the next degree? If we take your Kabbalistic past and the layer that you have accumulated, you perceive these states completely differently.

Answer: I perceive them as states of growth without which I would not be able to be who I am now. Therefore, today I look at others as an adult looks at small children.

Question: Did you remember this force when you were in these states?

Answer: Yes. Therefore, I calmly experience all this in others. I know they have to go through this, and I am waiting patiently: another 10 years, another 15 years. Of course, they are impatient like a small child who wants to be grown up. However, I understand that it will take another 10 years to do this.

Question: How is it possible to tolerate this?

Answer: This is like communicating with children.

Comment: But many do not tolerate children in their manifestations.

My Response: It means that they are unreasonable, ill-mannered parents who were not taught philosophy or understanding of what growth means. This is a problem of education.

Question: What is luck in spiritual work?

Answer: Luck, Mazal in Hebrew, is from the word “Nozel – drips.” If drops of light, photons from above, drip on you, then you are lucky.

Drops of light illuminate your path a little, ignite a spark in the darkness, and then you can at least see something. Although, drops of light give points of sparks, lights up and goes out, lights up and goes out, nevertheless, from them you get some idea, not of the picture that is around, but of how you should act in it. It is most important!

Based on this, one can begin to annul oneself in front of the group. This is the biggest problem! We hear about it, we read about it, but we are not able to internally understand it in order to begin to annul before the friends. That is why the beginning of implementation is so difficult.

And before that, you do not understand at all: “Could it not have been done at least a couple of years earlier? For ten years I was sitting and listening, but I was just listening!”

What does “heard” mean? For the first couple of years, it passed by the ear at a distance of ten centimeters, then at a distance of five, two centimeters, and, finally, it began to enter me. But by the time it came from the ear to awareness and from awareness to the heart and you realized that you need to do something, ten years have passed. It is not too long.

Question: What is this barrier? What is it?

Answer: The barrier is in the stupidity of our egoism. It does not want to hear anything! This is not ordinary egoism; the sharpness of the mind of a person and one’s special grasp will not help here. The ego will find any reason not to do it.

But this is very important information that a person receives about himself and about his qualities.
