Scientists cannot offer a solution to the Coronavirus, we ought not rely on a vaccine. This pandemic isn’t like the previous localized ones: those weren’t aimed at correcting the last generation, stemming from the general force (Mashiach).
Today, it is working on all of humanity for the first time!

The spiritual world isn’t found in three dimensional coordinates. It has no axes, but is like a sphere. By awakening a single cell, we activate, animate all creation. Then we will see that all of the universe’s endless spaces, all the galaxies amount to nothing as we will enter completely different dimensions.

The most vibrant combinations and delicate aromas, all of the beauty of scrutinies is achieved by adding additional tens. As in our world, there is a foundation that is essential, but beauty is achieved thanks to additions and spices that add flavor, aroma, color.

The Creator’s revelations happens both on a quantitative, as well as qualitative levels. The power of the revelation is determined by our success in expanding our Kli, adding more tens to it. The quality of the revelation grows as well; the main Kli is clothed with additional ones, adding partials to the essential note.

To the extent that we unite in the ten, we will begin to feel the necessity of attaching to ourselves more and more tens, expanding the boundaries of our unity, because this is the only way we can draw ever closer to the Creator.

The ego (Pharaoh) has developed so much that its authority is turning from pleasant to unbearable, and is thus forcing us to seek a way to escape it.

My Thoughts On Twitter 9/12/20

Even Darwin asserted that it’s not the strongest that survives, but the more adapted. Human history teaches that it’s not the strongest that survive, but those who are friendlier, who do not rule over others. This is true at all degrees of nature and throughout all human history. Cooperation trumps force.

When I have faith above reason, the force of bestowal, I enter it and start to gradually build myself. This is called spirituality: the degree of Bina above the degree of Malchut, when we want to think, feel, understand, and see everything according to the following degree above myself.

All degrees, all states already exist in reality. We have to make efforts in order to enter them. I lead myself to the degree of faith, Bina—and those who are outside of me, the group and the Creator, are more important than myself. I see, feel, and hear what happens in the friends, and not inside of me. This is already a spiritual sensation.

Above reason is to act in the will to bestow, for the sake of unity, according to spiritual definitions. In the material world each person exists on his own—there is no unity, since each one looks out for himself. But through unity and mutual bestowal, I feel reality and through it I look at the whole world.

I want to see everyone with different eyes: not my own, but the eyes of the ten. And the same for sensation, in the heart and mind—in everything I strive to attain the collective perception, in order to see the world not as one person, but as a ten. A ten is a spiritual structure in which the spiritual state is revealed

We have to realize the reason for the coronavirus. If we understand how to transform our interpersonal relationships—all the problems will disappear instantly! Nature’s goal isn’t to lead us through illness and heal us, but for the suffering and viruses to compel us to reveal our bad relationships.

Every day it becomes more and more clear: we have to realize that there is one common enemy—our egoism. We cannot destroy it, but we can rise above it together. The United States shows: society is incapable of regulating itself.
We can still reach an intelligent cooperation, or there’ll be war…

Above all human conspiracy theories and other ploys, in any case, there is the Creator’s plan, which determines our path. We wallow in our thoughts and do not wish to rise to the Creator’s degree, by faith above reason. Everyone stumbles in this place, but he who walks forward enters the Creator’s world.

We do not hear nature’s warnings: that we have to be integral, connected by goodness, and treat each other well. Otherwise with our behavior we determine nature’s behavior and do not allow it to enter balance; hence, we suffer together with all of nature.

The coronavirus is a small blow, coming from love and mercy for people who do not understand the purpose of their life. We have to realize why we have reached blows such as this. Why don’t we hear the first warning of the parent, like good children, in order to change our behavior and live well…?

The situation could have been much worse than the coronavirus epidemic. But the Creator did not use harsher methods. It’s because nature has a goal—to bring all of us to the proper connection. We are living in a time when unity between everyone has to be clearly implemented.

Every illness contains healing, the illness cures. We have to see where the #coronavirus is leading us, and reach this healthy state on our own. For that we have to understand the blow. There is a force behind it that does not wish to simply hurt us, but wishes to cure us.

The virus strikes us on the biological level, affecting society and families. We must therefore understand why nature is treating us this way, and what we can do so we don’t hide from this phenomenon, but get cured.

Before the coronavirus the world was in crisis and people spoke of a world war or ecological catastrophes. The situation was very problematic, there were many problems, like with a person who doesn’t know what illness he has, but manages to inject painkillers for the pain and to somehow keep living.

It’s still early to speak of the future if we do not know the present time, which is not joyful, but constantly brings new restrictions and blows. If we could understand them, we would see the light at the end of the tunnel.
But for now we do not see that things will get brighter. We do not even understand the darkness in which we find ourselves.

One thing becomes clear with each passing day: we must recognize that our one common enemy is our ego. It cannot be destroyed, but we can jointly rise above it. America proves that society is incapable of regulating itself. We can still come to mindful cooperation; the other alternative is war.

Democracy untethered from liberalism turns into dictatorship. Everything stems from disillusionment that the Internet and social media haven’t become a means of enlightenment. The majority think that the government is built on degradation and must therefore be destroyed. The elections produce a doubting elite class.

Just as it happens in any system (organism or machine), the defects accumulate until they manifest as a malfunction. Likewise in society with the coronavirus, the integral dependence of life is manifested.

We must realize that the reason for all our troubles is that society is fragmented by egoism!

My Thoughts On Twitter 9/7/20

Dr Michael Laitman Twitter

The blows of the coronavirus on all facets of life are showing us that we have entered a new period of development, when nature no longer treats us as children, but as adults—and punishes us, showing that change for the better depends on the degree of proper relationships between people.

Three kinds of forces of reception that are revealed in our world are three degrees: still, vegetative, and animate. The human being is the transitionary degree to the upper world, to its still, vegetative, and animate degrees. Onward, Adam, the human being of the upper world—is already the state of adhesion with the Creator.

Even though I’m only one Sefira in the ten, when I calibrate myself toward the other 9, I come to realize what’s required of me. Like tuning a guitar, I check each string relative to the rest. In the same way, I tune myself relative to the group.
Otherwise, my state is never going to change…

The ten and the world group protect the person inside it. That is why in Kabbalah the 10 Sefirot are called Blima (consuming). That is, consuming all external influences. And the Creator evokes such influences upon us that, by the good path or the bad, we will come to the necessity of finding shelter in the ten!

Dr Michael Laitman Twitter

Just as children don’t understand how to keep social distancing, so we don’t understand how to treat each other in the right way.
How can I feel another person, so I’ll draw near him in the right way, so that I destroy the virus by getting nearer in the right way?

Freeze!
Start to love the disturbances you see in the world.
And you will then see that the negative is not coming from the world to you, but from you to the world.
Good luck!

We have entered a phase of correction of the human ego. Nature will be constantly compelling us to renounce the ego in all its manifestations, amongst ourselves and toward nature. Unless this happens, all the world’s people have no right to expect any improvements to their state.

My Thoughts On Twitter 9/1/20

Dr Michael Laitman Twitter

The coronavirus cannot be stopped by masks, by sitting at home and closing down schools. A correction has to be performed at the highest degree—in the relationships between people. When we begin to correct ourselves and establish the right connection we will thereby disable the virus. It is written “Love will cover all crimes!”

The coronavirus emerges due to an improper connection between the elements of creation, which have to begin to connect in our time. In places where connections are meant to emerge, according to the program of development toward the end of correction, viruses emerge out of places of breakage, like out of cracks…

One does not build the soul by own’s own desire, the way one erects a building, but rather one waits for the Creator to build it. The right request to Him passes through unity in the ten to the Creator. I only order this construction, but don’t know how the Creator will build it. Especially when we are building the 3rd Temple.

Dr Michael Laitman Twitter

We must rise above the ego, to faith above reason, to the force of bestowal instead of the force of reception. We have squeezed the EGO (force of reception) to the last drop in attempts to find a way forward. From here, no more opportunities exist to advance in the ego. All attempts on the level of the ego lead to ruin.

Many types of bacteria prefer living as a collective. When attacked by antibiotics, they warn the collective of danger, selflessly send a notifying signal to their own, fight back against antibiotics, and create a defense against the medicines that have slain their comrades. We can learn a thing or two from them!

We have tried all forms of society, from the left (USSR) to the right (Nazi Germany) and everything in between. Only the opposite remains: a society built on common mutual connection. But for this, we must become disillusioned with our state, and the best way is to convince one another of it.

Dr Michael Laitman Twitter

The Creator, a force of good, has created the force of evil for us to reveal Him at the conjunction of these two forces instead of at their opposition. Herein lies our longstanding error!

The whole universe is one system. With our attitude we calibrate all of nature. We can blow up stars, trigger wars, establish peace. Everything depends solely on our connections. If we want good things for the world, we must establish good relations between us, and the world will be that much better off.

The Creator had purposefully broken the law of absolute mutual guarantee so as to give everyone one’s own “I”—a point of shattering from which one could feel that he exists and attains unity, mutual guarantee. Thus we embody the Creator’s name, reveal Him, and raise Him to reign over all of creation.

If I’m willing to give my efforts to the Creator only when I receive pleasure from Him, then I am like a woman who sells herself for money… But if I rise above the condition to bestow only if I receive pleasure, then I become a man, I can then even bestow to the Creator…

Dr Michael Laitman Twitter

The middle line in relationships can fill conflicts with new meaning: when the fire of hatred is burning, let’s forge unity out of it together!

The desire to achieve a mutual guarantee brings us to the Creator, for only He can unite us. The Creator has the upper light—the only force capable of giving us the sensation of a mutual guarantee, or connection. As we build a mutual guarantee, we begin to feel just how much we miss the Creator.

By assembling our individual souls into the soul of Adam, we are called the Creator’s partners and sons of Adam (Bnei Adam). This work turns us into sons of Adam, for we work jointly with the Creator to build a vessel after His likeness.

This is a puzzle of a billion pieces that are constantly changing. We realize that “it is not up to us to complete this work,” yet “we cannot be free of it.” All that is required of me is to take part.

Man’s work consists in reconnecting all the broken pieces of the soul of Adam. The Creator had purposefully shattered them to give us the opportunity to put them back together and see the ways in which they match. Until we complete this puzzle and become a single whole.
