The nations assert: the #Jews control the world—all the evil comes from them. They feel that they are in the hands of the Jews, who are able to change the world. The Jews need to be corrected first. With the help of Kabbalah, we will turn hatred to love and will transmit it to the world. We will thereby change our fate and the fate of the world.

The Jewish nation has to feel that by uniting among itself, it manages the enormous system of the world by the good path. But if it doesn’t unite among itself, then the system turns around toward harsh unification by way of suffering.

We are incapable of living in harmony with each other. Our egoistic nature does not allow this. But we can act out good relationships and by that, awaken the influence of the upper light upon us. We will then begin drawing closer together! And the Creator will be revealed in our convergence.

I look at the world through a non-transparent glass. I don’t see anything. But if I oppose egoism, thinking about unity, the good of the group, the goal of creation—then I draw the reflected light (Hassadim). It turns the matte glass into a transparent one and I see the Creator in the quality of bestowal and love.

The Creator is revealed between 10 desires of ten friends. If the desires aspire to unity and to the Creator, then the Creator is revealed to the degree of our unity and influence on Him with the quality of bestowal.

There is a special force in the 10—we don’t feel it and it therefore elicits lack of understanding. The Creator must be revealed in the connection between us, through the connection of 10 desires. For this, we must tie our desires together into one desire to reveal the Creator by mutual self-annulment.

We are in exile in the egoistic desire, which separates us. To realize the method of correction we must get organized into tens, the way this happened after exodus from Egypt when Jethro came to Moses and they started creating tens out of the nation of #Israel.

All of the Jews’ destructions and descents were but a consequence of them belittling Kabbalah, the method of the nation’s unity. Studying anything besides Kabbalah leads to the destruction of the nation and the world. The attitude that the nation of #Israel has to Kabbalah determines the world’s attitude toward the nation of Israel.

“In the last six months … [there were] a staggering number of violent attacks directly targeting Jews…” R. Lauder, President of the @WorldJewishCong (World Jewish Congress).
We wrote about this in all of our materials. For those who follow us, the tsunami of #Antisemitism doesn’t come as a surprise—it was foretold!

The USA Presidential election, in case Trump wins, may become the start of a left-wing revolution. Just like Hitler came to power in Germany, so the left will seize power in America by “storming the White House.” This will be followed by an extreme left government, as with Obama, and will proceed along the same natural scenario.

You can ascend spiritually if the Creator and the #meaning of life is more important to you than complaints against other people. Otherwise you will remain in your beastly existence.

Imagine: you are living in Babylon when Abraham’s group appears and asserts that you must love one another as you love yourself. You hate them and want to kick them out of Babylon. They understand that they must leave Babylon. What will you do then? Are you ready to join them?
The choice is yours.

Every person, according to the root of his #soul, is obligated to rise above corporeal disturbances, which are not disturbances, but conditions for the soul’s development, and to aspire to unity despite the reciprocal rejections.

All nations, the whole Babylon, must rise above its #egoism and perform the work of correction. This is today’s condition. And we act as #Abraham, who said, “Whoever is with the Creator—is with me!” This is that same Babylon and the same challenges, but in a modern form.

During the last exile, the nation of #Israel had no awareness of its spiritual mission. The science of Kabbalah was concealed. This was a preparatory period: sometimes more inner or surrounding light, and sometimes less, and humanity was drawn this way or that, respectively.

If we don’t succeed in disseminating the method of unity, a new world #war will befall the world, after which it will take centuries for humanity to recover and get itself together to implement the correction. The end of correction has to be realized in this world.

This world does not exist: the spiritual form that now appears before us as the material world must be such, so the process of correction would begin and end in it. When we complete the correction on the degree of this world, it will rise to the spiritual degree.

American Jews think that emancipation and assimilation will help them dissolve in American society and thus eliminate #Antisemitism. But history teaches that this leads to none other than our own extermination. Salvation lies in rising above this world.

We exist in this world, but in it, we must attain our spiritual predestination. What matters is the goal for which we come closer to each other and the goal for which we grow distant from each other. Closeness or separation can be judged only in relation to the goal of creation.

Spain’s deputy prime minister, appointed by Sanchez, hosted an Iran-funded TV show, calling Israel an illegal state and urging a complete #boycott of #Israel as befits an apartheid state: “We need to act more firmly on an illegal country like Israel”; these are the iconic claims of global #Antisemitism!

The increased recognition of American #antisemitism is a positive first step toward addressing the problem and unearthing its solution: to reverse our attitude toward one another, develop mutual responsibility and care, and spread it to the world.

Drug legalization: Why the use of #drugs will continue to grow ….

#Financial #crisis #EconomicSlowdown

#ClimateChange Nature is doing everything to stay in balance, while we’re doing everything to breach that balance.

“But if you do not drive out the inhabitants of the land, those you allow to remain will become pricks in your eyes and thorns in your sides. They will give you trouble in the land where you will live.”
Torah, Book of Numbers 33:55
We should have heeded the #Torah
#Jews

We are inside nature, and nature constitutes immutable laws that descend from one source. The one source has just one law—and we must study it well. It’s like physics or mathematics —when we know the one main principle, we can then deduce thousands of consequences from it.

#Antisemitism appears from the nations of the world because they never had the force of bestowal. But likewise, the nation of #Israel, which had one time attained the force of bestowal, later fell from that degree, and hence it hates bestowal even more than the nations of the world. This determines the current state.

It is precisely the dissemination of the method of unity among the nations of the world, the general movement toward one goal, an explanation of nature and the causes of #Antisemitism as the moving egoistic force toward the goal of creation that will divide all those who study Kabbalah into two parts.

With our unity, we draw the light that reforms, Hassadim, which pours out between us—and we are like in a cloud of mercy. The upper light of Hochma descends in order to advance us—does not enter as a knife, since it clothes into Hassadim, and by equivalence of form reveals the Creator to us.

By uniting, we awaken mercy, the light of Hassadim in the world. The light of Hochma, which comes to propel Isra-El and all of humanity toward correction, enters the light of Hassadim, which we have prepared from below. Hassadim comes from below, and the light of Hochma comes from above. Everything depends on our unity.

Baal HaSulam knew what would happen in Germany and tried to save the Jews. They did not allow him to do this and perished. They could not change anything: a certain period of time is allotted for freedom of choice, to make a decision. Once the decision is made, the authority is transferred to the force of correction by way of suffering.

Israel is us, those who aspire toward the Creator.
Torah is the upper light that directs us and all of humanity around us.
The Creator is the force that’s revealed in the center of the group, in the center of our efforts.
The result of correction is the unity of all creatures and the Creator’s revelation in them.

While in the middle line, we turn the ship’s steering wheel correctly, which must always be aimed at the central point: the unity of Me – Us (the ten, all of BB) – Humanity, as one whole. Then the one single force in the world, the Creator, will be revealed in us.

To steer the wheel is to strive for the middle line so that “all crimes” on the left side are “covered by love” on the right. The middle line will arise in the middle. We do not destroy the left line—those who disagree. We look at how criticism awakens those who agree, helping them to make the right choice.

The mankind ship will tilt, first to the left, then to the right. And if with the help of our efforts we manage to turn the steering wheel, this huge ship will go in the right direction. This is what our work is about—to feel responsible and lead the process of correction.

In reality, no one can have himself corrected and achieve the goal on his own. But, if we act together, as Rabash and Baal HaSulam advise, a path opens before us. Moving forward, we are thrown to the left, then to the right line. We though must make our progress in the middle line.

No one has a patronage from above, but there is a privilege—the opportunity to get involved in the process of correction, to discern all the pros and cons of this process, and to advance consciously, by consent. And consent always comes from disagreement, like the light is revealed from darkness.

Inside of our unity, we will clearly reveal the upper force, the Creator. There are only two forces in the world, which must be brought into balance. This balance is what we create in the group by our unity. The method of Kabbalah is very practical and specific, and we can implement it.

There are two forces in nature: the positive and the negative. The positive force of unity is concealed, while the negative force of egoism is revealed. If we in the group aspire to unite above egoism’s rejection, then the positive force awakens and helps us, that is how we advance toward unity.

There is a simple method to attain unity: we awaken the force of unity by connecting among us above our egoism, in spite of it. To the extent of this connection, we reveal the force of unity between us, which is called “the Creator,” revelation of the upper force.

We must study how to reach correction and awaken the whole world to it. The whole world divides into two parts: those who work for idols and those who work for unity. The upper force is unity, unification. Bringing all of nature to complete unity is the upper law of nature.

If we don’t convince #Jews in the world and in Israel to start uniting, there will be harsh, unprecedented sanctions directed at Israel from all nations, including the USA. In Israel, we will feel like we are under siege. And if we don’t unite, we will be thrown out of this land.

American Jews are admitting that the problem of #Antisemitism is escalating in a menacing way. The courts, prisons and police in America are standing on their guard. But in the case of Antisemitism, the government’s actions and attempts to extinguish Antisemitism will have no effect. Because here we are dealing with a law of nature.

#Antisemitism is the sensation in the nations of the world of the need to receive the light through the unity of the Jews. The most vehement Antisemites are precisely the ones who will join the Jews, as soon as the Jews unite—and the purpose of creation is then revealed. We have already seen such drastic turns in history.

The upper forces are organized such that only the nation of Israel, the group gathered by Abraham from all the nations, is coming together again—all the paths are opening up before it. There are no obstacles, the forces of nature are ready to assist it to raise it to the spiritual degrees. And after it, all of humanity will happily unite as well.

The law propelling humanity toward unity, operates in a harsh and cruel manner. It first of all pressures those who must be the first to lead humanity, the one nation that is obligated to do this work, to become the pathbreakers on this path and lead the whole world along with them.

Since the times of the ARI (16th century), Kabbalists say that we have entered the era of egoism’s final correction. The nations of the world are pressuring the nation of Israel—this pressure is intended to obligate us to unite by way of suffering if we do not wish to advance toward the correction on our own, running ahead of their pressure.

As fear still ripples throughout the Jewish communities of #Monsey, #Brooklyn and #JerseyCity following the recent string of anti-Semitic attacks, today’s Solidarity March in NYC, organized by the @UJAfedNY aims to counter the negative sensation, and bring Jews together.
#JewishandProud #StandTogether #NoHateNoFear

The people of #Israel are any person who feels the obligation to unite, in order to correct the EGO-nature of the world. After all, Isra-el (Yashar-el) means yearning to be similar to the Creator. Abraham picked these people from all of the Babylon and taught them the principles of unity – how to love others as oneself.

While we are in solidarity with the Jewish people of #NYC today, we should recognize that unifying against hatred and fear is far from the kind of unity that originally made us Jews.
#JewishandProud #StandTogether #NoHateNoFear

The essence of our unity is not reactionary to hatred, but to positively connect with a common intention to equalize with the laws of nature.

The development of #Antisemitism: fractions and parties will emerge in the world and infiltrate politics. Nations will form alliances based on hatred of Jews, demanding that #UNESCO, the UN and other international organizations cut off #Israel from international deals and trade with sanctions.

Why is it that for the nations of the world, assimilation usually leads to good consequences, whereas for the nation of Israel, assimilation always has negative consequences? It’s because #Israel is being corrected, going back to the roots, whereas the nations advance forward toward the goal of creation!

What if it was your son? What if it was your father? Your grandfather? Brother? Friend? #Antisemitism is growing in the US & around the world. We don’t feel what they’re going through, but our connection can protect them. Think about the connection & them. Because we’re all one.

Is it correct to understand that the nations of the world are willing to accept the nation of Israel only when it preserves its foundation? Only if the nation of Israel is the head of the soul, an example, leading the nations to the goal of creation, will the nations accept it and help it in every way to attain the general correction of the body of the soul.

By virtue of an outside factor, I can become human. But this is against all of my desires and my nature. This is why I need an environment: it will help me overcome the laziness and difficulties, and prove to me that this endeavor is worthwhile.

If we feel darkness gathering for us, it means the light is here and that is exactly why we are seeing #darkness.
#kabbalah #quotesaboutlife

The external factor cannot affect a person directly, but indirectly, in a roundabout way, it exerts a very serious influence.

External factors have enormous impact on a person: we transmit thoughts, desires and values to people, and receive the same from them. That is how all of humanity develops under the influence of society. The influence of the media is particularly apparent… as it destroys man.

Only man has freedom of will—by using the external factor, he can choose the direction of his development. We have an opportunity to turn to the spiritual factor, which will develop us—this is our freedom of will.

Anti-Semitism is a disease that has only one remedy.

#Antisemitism #NYC #Jews

The Creator is the sum total of the entire light of Infinity, the entire corrected Kli, and each time, as we pass from one state to the next, we reveal that it is contrary to all our previous notions. By working among us first, we prepare ourselves for that which is opposite to us.

Dr Michael Laitman Twitter

The most important thing is to give humanity an explanation of the future state, of the need to unite. It already exists in nature and must be revealed. If we are ready for it, then we feel the revelation as times of goodness. And if not, then we do not feel them as pleasant times and we suffer.

In relation to the Creator, we are always working above reason, since He is above our Kelim, our perception. We do not know Him by Himself, but reveal Him according to our reactions to His influence. The Creator’s revelation happens inside the vessel—”come and see”—as a result of our work among us, inside reason.

The work is divided into two stages: work in relation to the friend and in relation to the Creator (place). The “place” is the ten. To the extent I am united with all the friends, to this extent I can unite with the “place.” There’s no Creator without a “place”—our unity. There’s no light without a vessel.

Bowing down before the friends means asking for others, not wanting anything for myself, but only for them to receive everything. This will be my fulfillment. I am inside of them and I care for them, ask for them, and can be fulfilled only by this. Such is the degree of my inclusion in the friends.

Creation divides into Israel and the nations of the world according to the force of desire that remained after the breakage. The point that awakens in a person and pulls him toward correction is called straight to the Creator (Yashar-Kel), Israel.
Such a person must receive help from above to organize the environment and the work from below.

When will my heart of stone agree that I have to unite with the friends? Only after many breakages and disappointments, that I will die unless I annul myself before the friends. A person goes through inner crises and agrees to do all that is necessary.

“Israel” is the intermediate channel connecting the Creator to the creatures. We have to become the Creator’s devoted workers, considering not our own successes, but only our mission as those who serve the Creator and the creatures.
Then we can become the Creator’s partners in creation.

Mutual guarantee is the law of all of creation and the particular law of any person. If we correspond to this law, then we do not err and advance along the shortest straight line toward the goal of creation. If I cease checking myself for mutual guarantee, I will immediately stumble, fall, and get off the path.

“The end of the act is already contained in the initial thought.” We must now already see the final goal and the final state, verifying our every step by how much we are realizing that goal. Our entire path is the embodiment of the goal of creation, the finally corrected state and perfection.

The goal of creation is the general end of correction, and we must therefore constantly aspire to it. This will be liked by the upper force, which wishes for all to come to know it—from the least to the great. We must bring this knowledge to all the people of the world and provide them with a connection to the force of correction and unity.

We have to attain a connection with friends inside reason: connect with them, love them, and support them—inside reason. This projects the map of reality that must be ours to have—the structure of the soul that the Creator has given us to work with.

🇮🇱Israel’s obligation toward all of humanity determines all of our work, which is aimed at the final goal: to unite all creatures into one man, in adhesion with the Creator. The inner part of the Creator is Atzmuto, His essence, and the external part is His attitude to the creatures

The nations of the world must find out about their role, how they should use the negative attitude toward Jews and turn it into a demand—carrying out the correction together with the nation of Israel. The method lies in the nation of Israel, while the force lies in the nations of the world. We must therefore walk together toward the end of correction.

The nation of Israel has to feel the need of the nations of the world for correction, for attainment of the plan and aim of creation. All of the world’s troubles come from the fact that humanity is not receiving an answer about the cause of its torments. These torments come from the lack of the light of Hassadim, attainment of the Creator.

#Antisemitic attacks are the initial signs of the final process of the general correction of the world by way of world war. We are living in the last generation, in the era of the end of correction. War will envelop the whole planet; everyone will begin settling the score with one another.
#Antisemitism #war

#Antisemitism, the #Holocaust, #Nazism—these are painful topics, but we have to open up this wound and check, in order to understand: what did we do wrong and how do we proceed? This is important in order to heal. The puss-oozing infection was internal and now the doctor is cutting it open in order to heal it, and that is obviously painful.

They key to the entire historical process lies in the nation of Israel. 🇮🇱
The acute reaction of the common egoism in the nations of the world is elicited by the fact that the #Jews are resting on their laurels, in no hurry to do the correction. We must act together—Israel and the nations of the world. #Antisemitism is awakening in order to push the Jews forward.

Humanity is standing at the threshold of world war. The topic at hand isn’t isolated extremist incidents, but salvation from a global catastrophe—a third world war, as described by Baal HaSulam. It can happen at any moment. It suffices to push a button—and half the world will be destroyed.
#war

We can participate in our development independently—then the stages will become pleasant for us and will impart us with understanding, attainment. We will undertake our own therapy with the upper force’s participation. The development will become desirable—we will look at ourselves from above, will desire to receive the force of bestowal.

With each passing day, it becomes more and more obvious that the world is in need of unity, otherwise it will all disintegrate into pieces. The glue is #unity, which can only be attained by #Israel’s example. There is no other path, according to the laws of nature.
