Blitz Of Kabbalah Tips – 1/9/22, Part 4

234Question: Is it right to pray for the correction of friends when I know that I must first correct myself?

Answer: In order to pray for the friends, you do not need any personal correction. Praying for the friends is already your correction.

Question: It is said that everything is obtained by the power of prayer. What do the words “the power of prayer” mean? How is this power expressed?

Answer: The power of prayer is expressed by the desire. It is the force of the desire to correct ourselves, to become similar, to unite, and to rise.

Question: Is praying to see the spiritual greatness of my friends the main prayer for the friends?

Answer: This is not a main prayer, but it is a prayer. The main one is connection. And here you are asking for something auxiliary, personal. But it is nevertheless a good request.

Question: Is the request from society for the benefit of society?

Answer: The request of the group should be in such a form that we raise our common Hissaron (deficiency) to the Creator and ask Him to connect us so that we, from our common desire and yearning, can awaken Him to treat us as one single whole.

The Period Of Judges

570Question: There was a special period in the history of the Jewish people that lasted 300 years called the period of judges. At that time, there were practically no kings or regular army. Can we say that this was a special spiritual level that people were in?

Answer: Of course. Everything that happens in our world comes from the inner, deep states of man and society. You cannot tear one from the other.

Therefore, the spiritual state of each one and everyone together especially at that time after leaving the Egyptian slavery when people felt themselves under the rule of the Pharaoh (egoism) and could not escape from it anywhere, after becoming free, that is, as if they crossed the border from themselves, from the egoism that enslaved them, to freedom, they felt they were in a completely different world.

They no longer had to obey their inner instructions, habits, and inclinations, but could be free from their nature. Thus began the period of judges. It meant that people could judge themselves, rise above themselves, and feel what states they should be in.

Each person could separate from egoism and objectively judge himself and others. But, in addition, there were judges who personified a measure of responsibility and a measure of understanding of what state the people were in.

Question: Did the judges have such a moral level that it allowed them to rule the nation even without executive power?

Answer: People had their own power. They were at the mercy of their forces, thoughts, and decisions. They were their own judges. Therefore, this period is called the period of judges.

If We Want To Rise Above Our Egoism And Achieve Interconnection, Love, And Interaction

630.2Question: Is the impact through witchcraft and magic on other people due to the fact that we are initially connected with each other?

Answer: No. These days these things no longer work. And the fact that there are such psychological phenomena as the influence of a crowd, a group of people on an individual, these are consequences emanating from our original source of complete interconnection, Adam.

Question: By studying the science of Kabbalah, a person invokes the surrounding light, which changes his nature, thoughts, and intentions. Can this be called witchcraft?

Answer: No! It is a physical law; it is when many people come together and with a certain intention think about how to achieve the right states among themselves.

Question: How long do you think it will take humanity to move from superstition to the true knowledge of nature?

Answer: It does not depend on time, but on when we start doing the right things. If we want to rise above our egoism and achieve interconnection, love, and interaction, then we will really begin to approach the state that is called “Adam” in Kabbalah. This is what we need to achieve.

Blitz Of Kabbalah Tips – 1/9/22, Part 3

294.4Question: Every day, every minute we invest different efforts. How does the light react to this and how does it affect the entire work of the world group?

Answer: We just need to feel it. I cannot express this in words, just like I cannot accurately convey to you the taste of something you have not tasted. Let’s come to this and taste it.

Question: Why does corporeal egoism and ambition decrease as spiritual egoism grows? I do not want anything at all.

Answer: This is just for now. As you continue to develop spiritually, you will see how much your corporeal needs grow. In the meantime, there is no reason to cry that you do not want anything. On the contrary, this is help given to you to take the first few steps in the correct direction.

Question: How can we always remember that we are addressing the Creator and first of all to begin with a request for connection?

Answer: The group should think about this. When everyone thinks about this together, no one will escape this thought. This is the mutual guarantee.

Question: What does it mean that the corporeality of the friend is my spirituality?

Answer: If you accept their desires and want to implement them, then these desires become the structure of your spiritual Kli.

Question: You said that spirituality should not mix with corporeality. How can we reach this?

Answer: I meant that you cannot ask for your family, for your children, or someone else. You can only ask for what is inside the circle of the group.

Question: How can I determine whether my actions are for the benefit of the Creator or for my good?

Answer: If the group agrees with you and you raise this issue together to the Creator, then this is an action for His benefit.

Question: What should we do to get out of the descent that will follow the congress? Or maybe we have already reached such a stage that we will not have descents but will only be in ascents and rise?

Answer: Absolutely not! There must be descents, otherwise there will be no ascents. They should alternate with each other: ups and downs, downs and ups. But we have nothing to fear from either of them. On the contrary, it is from the falls that we rise and earn spiritual degrees.

How To Address The Creator?

232.1Question: Would it be correct to pray to the Creator for a new heart that desires nothing for itself but only for the friends?

Answer: Yes, but you need to understand what a new heart means. You must feel it. Mechanical words in prayer simply kill! Better not to say them. You must feel! You must feel everything you say on a sensory level and not just use the words that you read in a book.

Question: But we do not know and do not understand what exactly we need and what we should ask for. In this case, should the request be only for connection?

Answer: Well, for now, let it be only a request for connection. And then you can ask the Creator to teach you the most elementary requests so that you understand how to address Him.

Move Forward With Closed Eyes

565.01Question: What should a person do if he agrees with his egoism that says: “Do whatever you want, just do not raise a real prayer”? After all, the ego knows that he will get an answer.

Answer: This is how the Creator plays with us. But a person must go forward with his eyes shut.

There are several such points on our way when we suddenly stop and do not want to move forward. We are even ready to go backward, to give up everything. Moreover, we decide this very soberly, not under the influence of any special circumstances.

Therefore, we need to know how to overcome such situations and together, with the group, regardless of anything, still move forward. What will be, will be.

Prepare To Perceive The Creator

294.3The Creator is everything. There is none else besides Him. He has no name, title, image, form. He is not limited by time or space, absolutely by nothing. He is above all limitations and worlds. It is just everything there is.

But although the Creator fills everything in infinite measure with infinite number of sounds and forms, we must prepare to perceive Him. For the sake of connecting with us, He wants to develop us so that we gradually grow, expand our sensory organs, and are able to feel and understand Him in all His might.

To do this, we need to infinitely develop our organs of perception, which means to exit the egoism that restricts us and drives us into a narrow framework and forces us to evaluate everything only from the standpoint of our own benefit or harm. And with such an approach, it is impossible to get closer to the Creator because He is above such a calculation.

It is only man, intentionally created as an egoist, who, when he comes out of these limitations, can correct himself with the help of the Creator and understand and feel what the Creator has done for him.

Without this, it is impossible to attain the concept of the upper force because we are not in the dimension where it operates: beyond the desire to receive, beyond egoism, beyond our perception.

We perceive reality with five senses, and that is why we see such a world. But the Creator is not limited by anything, and He cannot be felt by these material organs we feel the world and the universe with because all this is perceived due to limitations.

The Creator is the force of bestowal. He wants to give, to grant, to love, and to fill. This is how His desire is revealed to us. But outside of us, we cannot say a single word about the Creator. We do not know if He has thoughts and desires. Most likely not because He is above all this. The perfect one cannot be subject to emotions—bad or good—because He is not limited by anything.

Therefore, He cannot have bad or good feelings. All our feelings are caused either by a lack of something or by filling. But all this is not inherent to the Creator. The Creator is absolute kindness and He only wants to fill everyone with goodness.

“Beware Of Looking At Women”

560Question: Why is it said in the primary sources in the “covenant of eyes” that one should beware of looking at women?

Answer: In our world, we have a set of very simple and clear desires for food, sex, and family. These are the three basic human desires, which, in principle, animals also have. This is what we must, first of all, direct to correction.

The strongest and most vital of them is food. And after it, the most necessary for existence is sex. It proceeds from the fact that we must connect the opposite elements of creation so that we again get a whole closed system.

And the woman personifies, as it were, a person’s desire for physical union. And so, there is a special condition here that we should beware of even looking at them.

Speaking about spiritual states, a woman symbolizes the egoistic desire to receive, to bring closer to herself, to be filled directly from the source of pleasure.

Question: If I have thoughts like, “Why is the Creator not revealed to me directly?”, then are these all egoistic thoughts that should be guarded against?

Answer: Yes, that is the point. Basically, we need to beware that all the properties that are in us in a natural animal form (food, sex, and family) are aimed at attaining the Creator and to use them for one’s own sake only in the intention to achieve this goal, to attain the Creator.

Great Programmer’s Plan

281.02Question: To what extent do the catastrophic phenomena occurring today in nature, in social relations, and at the level of changing the goals that people set for themselves accelerate or delay the revelation of the programmer who created the universe?

Maybe He is deliberately pushing us to some kind of turning point after which there will be no other way out?

Answer: But, we still have no way out. We have only one way: either to develop according to His plan automatically or to apply our own efforts to this.

His plan is for these beings that He created to comprehend Him and find that everything He created was created in the form of great good. And since they do not want to comprehend this, they exist in an opposite world, in opposite sensations, in their egoistic desires.

Nothing new is proposed here, only to change our nature from egoistic to altruistic. And then, having mastered it, we will understand that the world, the universe, and the cosmos have a completely different picture. In our corrected brain, this will be reflected correctly.

Covenant Of The Eyes

276.02Question: In Kabbalah is there such a thing as a covenant of the eyes? What does it mean?

Answer: The covenant of the eyes is a high union, already into the light of higher comprehension, the light of Hochma.

As in our world there are people who say, “I heard,” and there are those who say, “I saw.” In Kabbalah, sight symbolizes the light of Hochma and hearing is the light of Hassadim.

As for the light of Hassadim, we cannot say exactly what we feel. We hear, but it is not a full realization. Full realization is seeing.

Accordingly there are prophets who said, “I saw” or “I heard.” “I saw” is an absolutely complete comprehension of the Creator and we treat such a prophecy as the highest.

The division into “seen” and “heard” is in everything that happens to us. Of course, we receive everything from the Creator. Whatever each of us experiences in life comes only from Him.

He alone fills us and moves us all the time. But the most important thing that we desire is absolute comprehension, and it can only be in the light of Hochma, that is, in vision.
