Spiritual ascent and finding the Creator occurs through the upper light. It acts according to our efforts to gain its property of bestowal and connection/love. If despite one’s desire to receive he strives to bestow and connect to the group, his efforts over the ego are faith above reason

We feel this world that exists in the property of reception. The upper world exists in the property of bestowal, which can be felt if we obtain its properties. By building relationships of the upper world in the group, we draw its effect on us, get transformed and begin feeling it.

Since Jews are comprised of 70 tribes of Babylon as a minimodel of the world, its nations pressure Jews to unite so that the world nations can also unite. Israel’s vitality was in unity and it fell due to hatred. Israel’s condition projects the condition of the nations of the world

The principle “Love others as yourself” isn’t a fantasy, but nature’s rule for us to reach a higher rung of existence, where the governing forces, our thoughts, desires, eternal motion, and perfection are born. It’s the level of the Creator—the upper force, the goal of our evolution.

Jews aren’t a nation, but a group assembled by Abraham from 70 tribes of Babylon. “Jew” (Ivri) is the transition from egoism to altruism. Isra-el means “aspiring to the Creator.” Israel is a small model of the world, destined to be an example of spiritual ascent to other nations.

We have to constantly prove the legitimacy of our existence to the entire world. Kabbalah says that Israel can exist only to indicate to the world the purpose of its existence—to unlock the upper world through our total unity, to unlock the heavens in our existence! #Israel

The world will end Israel by removing it from all organizations, a collective boycott. Trump carries a new trade and finance ideology. The world will resist and make the Jews take the blame. But it’s in our hands to convey the message of Kabbalah about unity to ourselves and the world.

The US and EU closed the free market; they found that if no one stops China’s procurement of Western developments, everything will end up in China. Now all sales decisions must be approved by the state. The free market closed as soon as it became unprofitable for the national elite!

Faith/Bina is the property of bestowal, unity. One must continue to rise from the achieved faith that became knowledge to a new rung of faith. As soon as the image of faith above reason is built, it fades and moves away, so we need to aim at faith above reason again, more accurately

Spirituality cannot be experienced in a selfish desire, Malchut, but only in Tzimzum Aleph, the screen, Ohr Hozer. The sole purpose of its desire to enjoy is to build a desire to bestow (Ohr Hozer, Faith, Bina) over it, which is where we attain the Creator, in Faith Above Reason.

Attainment of the Creator arises from Malchut merging with Bina: Malchut ascends to Bina, and Bina transmits its properties to Malchut. If I have risen to the next degree, the previous one turns into knowledge for me, where I discover the Creator. And then I must keep ascending.

Evolving in faith above reason, a person constantly senses the difference between what is desired, Faith, and the reality, Reason, while simultaneously existing in these two states. And this is not a war, but а convergence of Malchut and Bina, which is a way of life.

Rising above sensations, one thinks as if he is in the bestowal properties of the spiritual world and perceives the group in spiritual attainment, knowing that he is still in the ego, within reason and calculations. He lives on two floors, Faith and Reason, Bina and Malchut.

A person tries to imagine the next step, the stage of bestowal; it’s vital for him to begin experiencing this spiritual state as life. And at the same time, it’s built above reason, Malchut, as if he already is above the material world, in the properties of bestowal, faith, Bina.

On the path of faith above reason, we aren’t delusional; we know we’re only imagining the upper step and act it. We exist within reason in this world and at the same time we’re holding on to what seems like adhesion with the Creator. So, with efforts we attract the Light that reforms

The situation in #Israel will become dangerous. #Trump won’t improve it but will aggravate it, for his ideology is to break the financial and international trade systems. The whole world and half of America will resist Trump. It’s a dangerous conflict and we’re surrounded by hatred.

How is it possible to ratify a law on the national charter of a nation without discussing and defining what is the nation, people, land, what is their origin, development, and mission, and with enemies of the state being part of the government. Is this a provocation? #Israel

Allowing this speaks to our inner weakness, the lack of a spiritual basis to our nationhood, our country, and our land. We don’t know our purpose. Hence we are weak in the face of our enemies who proclaim that our existence is futile.

It’s paramount to rise to the degree of Lishma. The spiritual ladder is built on it. Acquiring the force of bestowal, faith, above the force of reception, which the Creator awakens. He advances us by awakening darkness, and we stay above it with the light of Hassadim—bestowal.

It’s vital to reach Lishma (on which the spiritual ladder is built) by gaining the force of bestowal/faith above the force of reception that the Creator evokes in us. So the Creator advances us, through darkness; yet we stay above it by holding on to the light of Hassadim (bestowal)

Advancing by faith above reason: the acquired knowledge becomes the step we build faith on. And faith acquired above reason becomes a new knowledge over which one must rise to a greater faith. So the new stage of bestowal, faith, turns into a new stage of reception, knowledge.

Ascent occurs due to the fact that we don’t ignore the desire to receive pleasure; it is filled with darkness and desperation—all that pertains to selfishness. But we act as if we are in bestowal, in Bina’s property, in unity: “They have eyes, but they do not see.”

We must work on two levels, so that one does not cancel the other. I know in my common sense that I live in selfishness and do not want to give anything to anyone. I am not attracted by the conditions offered by Kabbalah. This is how I feel in my ego and am fully aware of it.

I stand with my two feet on the ground, for the judge has only on what his eyes see. And at the same time, I think of the spiritual rung, as if the upper light has already come and filled me, granting me the power of bestowal, unity, adhesion with the group and in it with the Creator

Faith becomes a new stage that does not cancel the first. I exist simultaneously at two levels that do not cancel each other, but exist each in itself. Thus I build the stage of faith above reason: there is knowledge, Malchut, and faith, Bina, above it.

The way to live: if I manage to hold on to faith above reason, by putting in a full measure of effort, then I feel how the state I am in is changing. The previous stage of faith gradually turns into knowledge, and I need new faith, new bestowal, at a higher degree.

I climb the steps of the spiritual ladder: that which was faith turns into knowledge. Bina transmits its power to Malchut. Malchut grows. And I rise above it to a new stage of Bina: higher and higher!

It is difficult to remain at two levels at the same time, Malchut and Bina, so that one doesn’t cancel the other. Don’t keep yourself in one state like children do. An adult stands on his feet firmly in this world and keeps his head high up in the future world.

The ascent on the spiritual ladder to the end of correction occurs solely by faith above reason. The group’s support is vital. The fate lies in mastering the principle of rising from the rung of Reason to the rung of Faith—the basis of the spiritual ascent and acquisition of soul.

The Creator creates conditions where I act by faith above reason and remain in adhesion with Him in all of His and my actions. Thus I reach the stage of Bina, by exiting the desire to receive pleasure and clinging to the Creator’s property of bestowal, meaning, I planted myself in Him

“Nuclear weapons are deterrent weapons.” The truth is out, which boundary we can and cannot cross. With weapons, the Creator brought mankind to disillusionment so that mankind began to put itself to use. When you are facing an equally powerful opponent, you start #peace talks.

All states come from the Upper, who lives in me and controls me. Faith above reason is perceiving the Upper as good who does good. The Upper acts in the best way that leads to correction. Therefore, I must accept the heaviest feeling as the most advantageous.

Learning nature makes clear that all is built on connection, the Creator’s force of bestowal. Separation is the creation’s force made by the Creator to reveal His power of connection and love. Creatures have the opportunity to gain this power and connect to the Creator accordingly.

Life is unification on 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 levels:
1. unity of particles via energy, 2. bioenergy exchange, 3. information exchange in living organisms, 4. exchange of feelings, 5. on the spiritual degree, exchange of qualities of bestowal above qualities of reception.

The Jewish nation exists not in order to elicit the whole world’s hatred toward it, but to live by the principle of love for others and to teach it to the whole world. Therein lies our spiritual power, which cannot only neutralize all our enemies, but also turn them into friends.

A nation has the right to protect itself within its boundaries. Freedom of speech can be allowed only within the framework of this right. Statements calling to destroy a nation are statements of enemies.

Our desire is like a radio receiver—it must be tuned to the required frequency. Then the same wave will appear inside it as the one outside—upper light!

Since WW II world order’s been guaranteed by the USA, who’s exiting. EU must decide its own fate, but its will and strength don’t fit EU’s desire to assert itself; it’s angry, but forced to submit to USA. Chinese, Russian, US leaders are nationalists, so military power is vital to them

Order of actions:
-Restriction: stop thinking about myself and what I feel.
-I care about what’s happening to the group and not to me, like a mother cares for her baby.
-If I can rejoice for the group and the Creator, it means I am in faith above reason, bestowal above pleasure.

Kabbalah’s method is not about destroying egoism, but replacing the intention “for myself” with “for others”—with the help of the upper force. “Kabbalah” means “reception,” with the intention for the sake of bestowal, which allows us to make ourselves similar to Nature.

The world will say the #Jews are controlling #Trump. It wants to abolish Israel as a state, strike it out of all international organizations, ban trade with us, and reject our planes.
Kabbalah explains: Only thus can the Creator compel us toward correction.

Hate toward #Israel is growing around the world. We will soon feel that we are surrounded and there’s nowhere to flee.
Kabbalah: our destiny is in our own hands. Our salvation is the pursuit of unity. “Love your neighbor as yourself” must be fulfilled for the sake of our survival!

Liberation is achieving what we wish for in exile. Exile gives rise to the right request, and I get what I want: to think only of the Creator, His contentment. And this is actualized through the same attitude toward the friends. So the group reveals the Creator between us.

If I know that there’s a condition in which I’ll wish to bring contentment to the Creator thru the friends, but now I still don’t have a desire for it and am unable to want it—then I’m in exile, controlled by the forces that don’t allow me to want it. This is the degree of exile.

Exile is a feeling of incapacity to give contentment to the Creator. I wish to, but I cannot. This feeling is called exile. Each condition is determined in relation to the opposite one. Therefore, there is no liberation without exile, and there is no exile without liberation.

Desires are constantly growing, so that we correct them in the connection between us and fulfill each other. Otherwise, desires grow and suffering will as well. They accumulate and will force us to realize that they come in to push us forth toward connection, bestowal, love of others.

Regarding the evolution: Desires grow—suffering grows. The only way to correct them is to turn them into bestowal. Suffering comes only to the desires that through unity can be turned into enjoyment. Great ego-desires are waiting to unfold in us. Correction is in unification.

Egoism develops to such an extent that its rule goes from being pleasant to unbearable, which pushes us to look for a way out of it.

Each time we rise by faith above reason, the former faith turns into awareness; and we rise above that awareness to a greater faith that afterward becomes reason. Therefore, the one who walks by faith above reason continually increases his awareness, and becomes wiser!

Try to be above any condition, by holding on to the Creator. Whether you are in an ascent or descent, cling to Him, like a baby to the mother. If he’s attached to his mother, he needs nothing else; this is his all. And while we grow, we also become similar to the Creator.

Capitalism is dеgrading; socialism hasn’t succeeded. But Trump’s wrong: there’s no return to prosperous capitalism! Ahead is the birth of a new society—equality and brotherhood by the law of spiritual nature: in agony/world war or in consciousness/correction of ego with Ohr Makif.

Strong states after prosperity fall into contradictions that destroy them. There’s no way back. The USA, Russia, and China are looking for the format of their future. A new world ahead—in a conscious, over-egoistic connection, achieved by education in Kabbalah. Or the world will split!

First emerges the desire,
Which launches the development of thought—
To distance or develop the desire.
