Question: Maybe we cannot create a time machine because our protein world is illusory and exists only in our imagination?

Answer: It exists in you in such a way that you are now sitting in front of the camera and talking to me. And there are ten billion people around you, and so on, and so on. In principle, this is all, of course, your world.

This is what appears to you. I also exist in this world of yours. And I also imagine myself existing in some kind of my own world.

Kabbalists write that in the future all people will unite into one single humankind and become like one organism in their feelings. In this state, time will vanish.

If no one feels like a single person but only as the totality of all mankind, then no one from the future will come to you because there will be no such state when we represent individual people. All of us together will become one person called Adam.

And then, as it is written in Kabbalah, material reality will disappear from our senses because we will not feel disconnected from each other, but we will begin to exist in one common spiritual body.

Therefore, we do not need to create a time machine to soar into the future because it exists in a completely different degree.

The upper expects only a reaction from us. Portions of light come from the upper to the lower (to each of us), and require us to respond correctly. The upper knows exactly what is happening to the lower one, what state the lower one is in, because He forms this state for him.

Of course, the upper one knows what the lower one is ready for. He arranges for him all the external and internal conditions for free choice and leaves to the lowest only one thing incomprehensible and unknown to the lower—the middle third of Tifferet (Klipat Noga). It is in this state that the lower one must form the middle line himself.

If the lower one, in response to the influence of the upper one, correctly builds the middle line, it means that he has been awarded. Then he really inclined himself and the whole world (the whole environment that the upper formed for him at that moment) to good.

Therefore, all that is required of the lower, when he feels a lack (Hisaron), is to turn to the upper and get the component that he lacks from Him in order to incline himself and the whole world to good.

After all, the lowest lacks knowledge, sensation, and then the ability to decide. He must receive all this from the upper.

The upper one leaves him a Klipat Noga so that the lower one wishes to turn to Him and get what he lacks. If the lower one is ready to receive this filing for the Klipat Noga, then he receives it, and this is the additional force of bestowal that he acquires at the current degree, and due to it rises to the next degree.

Question: How do you feel how far your student has progressed?

Answer: I conduct an analysis and see. The analysis is not of medical indicators, but of the spirit.

The spiritual is the same material, but not for everyone. For example, you can do an analysis of various waves, radioactivity, gasses, or some other natural phenomena, and I can measure the parameters of the spirit, and the other cannot.

Question: But how is this measured? Due to the fact that a person does some certain actions, or does he have internal changes after all?

Answer: Of course internal changes are taking place in him. I incorporate him in myself, as if in my laboratory, and measure using my ruler. Previously, he got, say, up to 20 divisions, and now up to 25.

Man needs a weak body and a strong soul, one that prevails with strength. And then the Creator loves him (Zohar for All, Vol.3, Chapter “VaYeshev”).

The will to receive is called the body, and the spiritual force is called the soul. The stronger the soul is than the body, the more opportunities a person has to advance correctly.

How can we make the soul stronger than the body? When we yearn to connect, our connection becomes stronger and stronger. In this way, we rise higher and higher until we begin to feel the Creator, the true reality, the upper worlds, and the spiritual degrees. It all depends on the level of our connection with each other.

Through the increasingly strong connection, we ascend the degrees of revelation to ever greater and greater levels of sensation.

Now that we have been rewarded with all the above, we will have some understanding of His uniqueness, that His thoughts are not our thoughts, and all the abundance of matters and forms we perceive in this reality before us is united in Him in a single thought, being the thought of creation to delight His creations (Baal HaSulam, The Study of the Ten Sefirot, “Inner Observation,” Chapter 5, Item 22).

Question: It is written that the Creator has only one thought—to delight us. Why is it so difficult to see this in our daily life?

Baal HaSulam writes that if, at the end of a person’s life, you weigh how much that person enjoyed and how much he suffered, then he would not want to be born at all because we are always at a loss. On one hand the Creator has a purpose and a thought to fulfill us, but on the other hand we do not feel this. Why?

Answer: It is because no one wants to listen to the Creator; no one wants to follow His advice.

The Creator says a very simple thing: You can reach absolute enjoyment, fulfillment, knowledge, or anything, only on the condition that you love your neighbor.

Once you have reached love for your neighbor, that is it; you are already connected with the Creator and you are already enjoying. But where do you see people who, upon hearing this, would immediately begin to aspire for such a state?

Comment: They just do not understand what it is.

My Response: What do you mean by they do not understand? It is very simple. Can you imagine being loved? Do the same to others. “No, anything but that!”

Comment: Basically, yes. It is hard.

My Response: I would say it is impossible. But this is a mandatory condition.

Comment: There is a strange postulate in the classification of cults: “You must become a member of the group immediately.”

My Response: No, absolutely not. In our community, before joining a group a person studies on campus for at least six months, participates with us in congresses, in joint meals, but not in a group.

After he graduates from the campus, he becomes a member of what is called the young group—young not by age but by the number of classes. People study there for two or three more years.

Before a person settles in our group, several years pass. No one drags him there. Why? So that he leaves tomorrow? On the contrary, it is better for him to settle first and only then—if he really realizes that this is his path—to come to us.

Question: Some people have mental disorders and think they are in the spiritual worlds. A Kabbalist who has attained spirituality also feels a certain duality. Where is the boundary between mental instability and a person’s spiritual attainment?

Answer: People come to me and say: “I am already in the world of infinity. I corrected everything, and what about you?” There are such interesting impressions a person gives about himself. From the outside, of course, you can see, or cannot see whether he is in spirituality. If it is an outsider, he can conceal himself.

Usually, each of us sees the upper world with his inner sense, with the quality of bestowal developed in him only if he has already entered into constant contact with the upper nature and the Creator has been revealed to him, and not just for a moment.

After all, if he really wants it or suffers a lot, he can feel the manifestation of the upper force implicitly for a short period of time. But this is not an obvious feeling of the Creator, but a feeling of warmth that you are entering.

A person clearly knows and understands spirituality only when he has already passed the barrier between the two worlds. How can you determine whether one is behind the barrier or not?—By the quality of bestowal and love, which constantly embraces him toward everyone. But it can also be deceptive.

Can a strong, connected Kabbalistic ten overcome all the problems we encounter in life? Overcoming problems means accepting them as sent by the Creator since there is no other force in the world, and then trying to convert these difficulties from problems into mercy through your connection in the ten, which is growing stronger and stronger.

That is, we need to see that these problems come only to help us connect and advance even more. In this way, the Creator gives us the opportunity to connect and come closer to Him.

The strong ten is connecting so as to become one powerful force capable of canceling all judgments, and even more to turn these judgments into mercy. Due to this, we connect with each other even more and rise up.

If the Creator gives a person a serious illness, the most correct thing is to adhere to the Creator as much as possible together with all the friends, with the entire ten. To pray all the time and ask to adhere to the friends even more tightly until you completely dissolve into them, as if you do not exist at all, as if you are fully dissolved inside the group. Through this, all diseases and all problems go away and disappear.

Question: Baal HaSulam gives an example of a rich man who feeds and gives gifts to a poor man. The poor man feels direct pleasure from this. But as he receives gifts, he begins to feel shame.

We strongly dislike the feeling of shame because there is no reception in the Creator at all. Does shame also come from the Creator, or does it appear only in creation?

Answer: No negative feelings come from the Creator, only positive ones. They are negative because our disparity with the Creator was created.

The feeling of shame before the giver exists only in creation. It does not exist in our root.

One of the important qualities in spiritual work is patience; one should grit his teeth, shut his mouth, and go through all states.

This is what you do all of your life if you are dealing with the Creator, if He is standing before you, and His revelation and connection with Him is the only thing important for you since He is really the only reason for everything that is happening.

Where else can we go, and what else should we pay attention to? We need the commandment love your neighbor only in order to train and reach His qualities. Neither my neighbor nor I exist here, but only the way to reach the quality of the Creator.

Question: Is patience especially important during a quarrel?

Answer: A quarrel is the appearance of a contradiction with the Creator, when He puts me in such conditions that I do not accept the picture that He paints for me.

Question: In principle, when there is conflict between friends, is this also one of the elements?

Answer: Of course. They just do not feel it. If they are in a group, then this is a lesson for the whole group. They make a hole in the boat in which the whole group sits.

When they quarrel among themselves, they break the unity of the group, and the whole group suffers from this. Nothing can be done here! In such a relationship, no group will achieve any spiritual ascent or revelation of the Creator.

At first, all of this is forgiven and not noticed. Then it reaches such a state that we are obliged to work on ourselves so that the group is similar to the Creator. The relations in the group will always be terrible, nasty, awful, disgusting, and hateful, as in the example of the group of Rabbi Shimon, the creator of The Book of Zohar. But we must rise above this to love.
