Question: Why do you speak about the need to attain “There is none else besides Him” so often? Why is it so hard to understand that everything stems from above? Many people know that. Is “There is none else besides Him” a unique mantra in the wisdom of Kabbalah?

Answer: No, it is not a mantra, but an attainment, which means a feeling. We are in this one unique force, which totally controls us and we clearly feel it. You cannot escape it any more.

It is in this feeling that we must exist. It is indeed true.

This is the only force of nature! Even if you speak to scientists and physicists they will not negate this fact. They will say: “Yes, it is obviously so, although we have not discovered it yet.”

Question from Facebook: Freewill is how to attain the Creator, but if our actions are predetermined, is the way to attain the Creator also predetermined?

Answer: The way to the Creator consists of two branches. One way is straight, smooth, and comfortable, like a highway. The other way is bumpy and you cannot drive a Mercedes on this road, but only a cart pulled by a pair of worn out horses. So our choice is in which way; a person chooses that.

The goal is set, the starting point is also. It is only which path that depends on a person. There are people who overcome it quickly and are already at the end of the way, already enjoying the attainment of eternity and wholeness above this world. You don’t need to die in order to attain this. You can attain it in our world. There are, however, people for whom it will take a long time to reach the ultimate goal. Still, everyone will reach it, but the question is how much suffering they will have to undergo.

The role of the wisdom of Kabbalah is to guide a person on how to follow the fast and easy road toward the predetermined goal.

Question: What reason does the Creator have for looking at a reality that has already been determined?

Answer: The reason is very simple, first, bring the person to the possibility of a true freedom of choice. And to do that, the person must transcend himself, transcend his nature.

Second, he must replace his nature with the nature of the Creator because only the Creator is free. And then, by ascending to the level of the Creator and acquiring the characteristic of bestowal, he will constantly be able to measure himself in relation to the Creator. Achieving the level of the absolutely free Creator is the result of all of our work.

Question: The upper governing force is love, and it cannot be attained by the mind. How can we reach it?

Answer: The upper governing force is love. It can be reached only to the extent that a person develops it within himself. In our world, in our states, this feeling does not exist at all.

Our corporeal love is egoistic. It is not the correct, natural, true attitude of one person toward another. However, Kabbalah gives us the opportunity to attract the upper light, the upper energy, which builds the quality of true love  in us.

Question: Does the upper governing force need us?

Answer: The upper governing force needs us, because in this way we feel its attitude to us. It wants us to become similar to it from the opposite to it, as it created us, to become as it wants to see us. – as she wants to see us, from the opposite of it – as it created us.

By transforming ourselves into the ones similar to it, we begin to reveal this force, understand it, draw closer to it, and literally adhere to it.

Question: Does it receive something from this?

Answer: No, it does not need it at all. Everything is done only for our sake because the upper force is absolute goodness.

Question: Who does this power come from? Is there anybody behind it?

Answer: There is a root that is not attained, but its actions are attained; the science of Kabbalah speaks about it. It teaches us to attain the actions of the Creator, but not the Creator Himself.

Question: Is there such a thing as female intuition in Kabbalah? If so, how does Kabbalah influence it and help it develop?

Answer: Of course there is. In our world, a woman is much closer to nature. She is more realistic about everything than a man who remains a child until the end of his life.

It is due to the fact that a woman must give birth and educate children, she in some way receives from the higher system, from the Creator, His functions: giving birth, developing the next level of nature, the next generation.

Therefore, a woman in our world is more mature and more realistic than a man. But on the other hand, this is compensated for in men by such properties that women do not have.

I believe that the existing separate male and female groups, in principle, complement each other. Therefore, it is not necessary to put pressure on anyone, but let them develop freely.

We are only the first generation of the open development of Kabbalah in the world. And therefore, we must first study this phenomenon on ourselves, and then it will manifest itself, and we will learn how to proceed further.

The transition to the state of spiritual embryo, which starts to develop in the upper world, is very difficult. This is the most difficult transition of all spiritual processes. We can say the same about corporeal conception and birth of a new life, which is a miracle.

Therefore, the spiritual transition requires a lot of patience and perseverance, a daily examination of what we can add to the state of spiritual conception in order to transition from the feeling of this world to the feeling of the upper world, from externality to internality.

Such a transition requires complying with many conditions and strictly following the advice of Kabbalists, working in the ten with complete subjugation without which it is impossible to come closer to the Creator. My friends are very important to me because only through them can I influence the Creator and advance.

Through the coronavirus pandemic and all other problems such as fires and floods, the Creator teaches us that it is only possible to approach Him if you value society and become integrated into it as much as possible. There are still many such problems ahead of us, and all of them are in order to make us think about the way to escape the blows. Salvation is possible only through collective work, all the way to complete connection.

This is how we will reach the solution.

The blows bring us closer to a better understanding of the connection we should be in with each other. Nowadays, blows are happening on a global scale and are affecting all of humanity because we live in what is called the last generation, which must begin the correction. That is why the Creator arranges such lessons for us—so that we can find out what He requires from us based on His actions toward us.

We must understand that the only way to protect ourselves from blows, floods, fires, and viruses is through good relations between us. Until we learn this, we will receive blow after blow. We will not be able to return to a quiet life. Nature is preparing unpleasant surprises for us from all directions. Since the modern world is connected by a global network, wherever a blow occurs, it will resonate everywhere and reach everyone.

Everyone will feel the blow, which will help us recognize that we are connected and dependent on each other. If we do not want to come to this voluntarily, then the Creator will have to teach us through such collective punishments.

Everyone will receive some kind of blow: some will suffer from fires, others from floods, others from viruses, others from extreme heat or cold. We cannot know why each of us received precisely this kind of a blow, but in the end, everyone will suffer.

This is exactly what is happening now and will happen in the future. Our life is determined by the time in which we live, that is, by the stage of general correction. Hence, world wars, extensive fires around the globe, floods, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions can possibly occur. Nature has enough measures of influence.

However, it all depends on how quickly we can put a protective shield against all these problems, that is, can come closer to each other and thereby cancel all evil forces.

The Earth will immediately calm down because with a good connection between us, we can calm and balance it and live a wonderful life. We will continue to strengthen our connection more and more until we reveal within it not only the sensation of this world to its full depth, but we will also begin to reveal the upper world ever higher and higher.

In the News (“Why Our Pursuit of Happiness May Be Flawed”): “It is an emotion linked to improved health and well-being, but is our obsession with being happy a recipe for disappointment, asks Nat Rutherford. …

“Yet more and more aspects of life are judged in terms of their contribution to the phantom of happiness. Does your relationship, your job, your home, your body, your diet make you happy? If not, aren’t you doing something wrong? In our modern world, happiness is the closest thing we have to a summum bonum, the highest good from which all other goods flow. In this logic unhappiness becomes the summum malum, the greatest evil to be avoided. There is some evidence that the obsessive pursuit of happiness is associated with a greater risk of depression. …

“By misunderstanding happiness, the modern conception increases the likelihood of disappointment. … Instead, aim with Aristotle to embrace those blemishes and to flourish in spite of them.”

My Response: I agree absolutely and clearly! For an ordinary person it is so. And if he really wants to find happiness, then he must first understand what it is, proceed from there, and achieve it.

Question: Happiness comes all the time, then it slips away, it comes and slips away again. How can you define what happiness is and near it so that it is not illusory and so that we really achieve happiness?

Answer: It must be real and not that everyone will have their own happiness and constantly change.

Question: Is it necessary to look for happiness all the time or not—real happiness?

Answer: You do not need to look for it. You need to define it. It exists and it exists in only one form—in understanding the meaning of life. Only what exists in the present and not what you invent for yourself over and over based on your condition.

So if you know exactly how to reveal this meaning, it will lead you forward, it will reveal the meaning of life more and more, and in finding the meaning of life, even if you are unhappy and dissatisfied with it, you will still be happy because you understand the meaning of life.

Question: What is the meaning of life when I can feel unhappy on the path?

Answer: It means that you are not yet able to develop yourself to such an extent that you can understand the meaning of life.

Question: And understanding it will make me happy?

Answer: Yes. The fact that you aspire to it. That the meaning does exist outside of you! Even this already creates a feeling of happiness in you.

That there is life and there is happiness in it, and happiness is in understanding the meaning of this life. Even if I still do not understand it but I am moving toward it, I am already happy. I am already absorbing it, looking forward to a future meeting with it.

Question: It is amazing when I am happy on the way! What kind of happiness is this, please tell me?

Answer: It is being happy to feel the harmony of the universe.

Question: I enter this harmony and also become harmonious?

Answer: Yes. Like entering a black hole and I reveal absolutely everything there!

Question: Why do we need to rule the upper world and how can we do it at all if we are not even able to govern ourselves?

Answer: Indeed, a person cannot control himself and even more so not the upper world. But you can achieve control over both if you strive to connect with the upper force, with the properties of bestowal and love. Then you will be able to control the upper worlds.

Question: Does a person start literally from the zero point?

Answer: He starts from a very good state, from the complete opposite of the upper force. This opposition is the basis, the pledge, the condition for its correct movement.

Question: The element of silence is often used in Kabbalistic meals. What is its meaning?

Answer: The meaning is not in the silence, but in intention. When you eat with your friends on the spiritual path, you delve deeply into very strong inner intentions about how to strive together toward the goal, how to unite, to what even greater degree of connection you want to develop now, and then from that connection to the Creator.

Therefore, it is very important that people sit quietly absorbed in themselves.

Remark: Kabbalistic melodies are also often used at meals.

Answer: Yes, there are certain melodies, usually without words, that people sing together.

All these elements help them to come closer together internally in order to raise the common inner connection to the spiritual source—to the Creator.
