#Independence is the realization that Israel and the nations of the world completely depend on each other.
Understanding independence lies in becoming independent of one’s ego, turning hatred into love with the Creator’s light, funneling the light through you to all the nations.

In our world of actions we build the right connections,
We remove the actions—and we get the upper world.
#wisdom #success #kabbalah

Q: Should love be mutual: both from the nation of #ISRAEL to the nations of the world, and from the nations to Israel?
A: The Creator stands between Jews and the nations. Only when we transmit light from Him to the nations will He allow their love for Jews to become apparent.

“If when observing the #Torah and Commandments one doesn’t aim to attain love for others, and from it – love for the Creator, then one’s actions cause even greater fragmentation of the nation, leading the nation and the whole world toward #suffering.”

Precisely because the nation of Israel lacks national love, natural to every nation, it has been commanded to attain love in the form of “Love your neighbor as yourself” through awareness of the common goal, the Creator, rather than by receiving it from common ancestry
#Israel70

Baal HaSulam: “It’s shameful to admit that in exile we’ve lost the most important quality: our national self-awareness, the sensation that bonds every nation. The bonds of love, natural for all nations, have left our hearts.”
We must restore these connections!
#IndependenceDay

… the wisdom of #Kabbalah—and we are becoming ripe to start using it to realize our true role in the world: to achieve “love your friend as yourself” and “each shall help his friend” in order to become “a light unto nations.”

I’m very happy that on Israel’s 70 years of #independence, we’ve been given a golden opportunity to proudly carry the wisdom of truth and publicize it. After 2,000 years of ups and downs, light and darkness, glory and exile, the veil has been lifted over the wisdom of Israel …

All that remains is to rekindle the national love that is dwindling, to revive the national essence that has been inactive for 2,000 years, to reawaken ourselves to unity and illuminate the light that humanity subconsciously expects from us.
#Israel

Our work: with our intentions, to create the Creator’s image “to bestow” out of desires “to receive.” As we build the Creator, we attain Him. By correcting the entire will to receive with the intention of bestowal, we reveal that there really is “None else besides Him.”

Before the Ari (16 C), it was forbidden to spread Kabbalah since egoism, AHAP, would develop faster than bestowal, G”E in the world. But since the Ari, bestowing forces, G”E have finished developing and Kabbalah must be disseminated, including among the nations, to correct the #world.

Israel’s Independence Day—the Day of Interdependence.
Only in a state of total interdependence, under the influence of the environment, do we acquire independence from each other, from our ego, our I—and can become one people, fulfilled by the Creator. #Israel #IndependenceDay

#Darkness and #light, descents and ascents, exile and glory, are all characteristic of the people of #Israel, ancient and modern. We have enjoyed states of blossoming unity and brotherly love at the time of the First and Second Temples. @BINAlerts

Human society is marching into a new age where we’ll all know everything about everyone — from the most basic information that any minor computer geek can easily track, to the most supposedly embarrassing deeds we try to hide from neighbors and colleagues.

Ben Gurion, Spiritual Revolution:
History has given us a great moral power.
“Love your neighbor as yourself” is the highest imperative of our people. Israel will merit its name only if its social relationships will be built on these eternal words.
#Israel #IndependenceDay

Independence doesn’t mean freedom from everyone. At the basis of creation, there are no independent parts, everything is interconnected. So, freedom and independence are only possible in unconditional, selfless #love, when you feel not yourself, but everyone—in mutual guarantee.

Kabbalists are adding to the celebration of Israel’s 70 years of Statehood an additional reason to celebrate: that in the State of Israel, a major spiritual resurgence is starting to take shape after 2,000 years of spiritual exile. #Israel70 #Israel

#Israel70 #IndependenceDay
The wisdom of Kabbalah, as the foundation and genetic record of the Jewish nation, says that we live in the land of #Israel in order to enter eternity and perfection.
Israel’s Independence Day is not just the country’s birthday, but its rebirth-day.

Laws of corporeal nature: those who don’t observe them are punished.
Laws of spiritual nature (relating to man’s equivalence to the Creator):
operate according to man’s development as a tiered judicial system, with a specific law on each degree.
#FreeWill_ML #Kabbalah

Instead of climbing the degrees of bestowal and love for others, and passing light to the nations of the world, since as far back as the 1^st Temple the nation of Israel has been imbued with corporeal desires of the nations. Only a few Kabbalists remained in each generation,

“Israel’s Independence Day—the Day of Interdependence.
Only in a state of total interdependence, under the influence of the environment, do we acquire independence from each other, from our ego, our I—and can become one people, fulfilled by the Creator. #Israel #IndependenceDay”

Our purpose is to lead by example in unity and solidarity, inspiring the nations to build correct social relationships. Then, instead of accusations, they will cherish us and will want to learn the method of unity from us. #Kabbalah #Israel #IndependenceDay #YomHaatzmaut

We cannot exist independently of each other; hence, independence can only be in the sensation of others as yourself.
I must feel that the people of #Israel, all mankind, the whole universe—all of that is me. And that is only possible with the power of love.
#IndependenceDay

By not realizing the Creator’s revelation to the world, the Jews are dooming the nations to suffer, since the latter can’t do it on their own. The nations suffer because Isra-El does not fulfill the Creator’s revelation to the world. This is the cause of anti-Semitism in the world

If the desire to reveal the Creator is there but we don’t move toward its realization, we unknowingly evoke great disasters in the world to alternatively push us toward the need to reveal the Creator. So, by refusing to reveal the Creator, we evoke all the troubles in the world.

Terms in Kabbalah/wisdom of the upper world, differ from our world:
Nations of the world: people’s egoistic desires
Israel – Isra-El (Straight to the Creator): aspiration to equivalence with the Creator
Jew (Ever): desire to reach the corrected state
This is relevant to everyone.

Expansion of the worlds from above downward was preparation for correction, while ascent from below upward is its realization. The descent created conditions of incongruence with the Creator so we would then, from there, reach equivalence with Him, till complete adhesion.

The entire correction of creation happens in the ten.
The prototype of the ten, the first HaVaYaH of the world of infinity, descended until total opposition to the Creator, lack of unity.
Then, from below, we start correcting the breakage by uniting in the ten.
#SpiritualWork_ML

Jews harm the world by not correcting it.
Only they can perform the correction by uniting.
The nations of the world must help the Jews unite, as the prophet allegorically said that the nations of the world will carry the Jews to the Creator’s mountain.
#Antisemitism #crisis

I get angry reactions from Jews for blaming ourselves for the #Holocaust, #Antisemitism and all of the world’s troubles!
But I am disclosing an objective law of nature so we may observe it and thus stop evoking misery upon ourselves!
After all, it’s all starting to repeat!

Once again to address people’s confusion about delineating spirituality:
Anything harmful to others (theft, damage) is a crime!
Anything useful to others is spiritual!
How much you sleep, eat, or party is your own business!
#Ego #FreeWill_ML

The Creator hands Himself over to the creatures and helps them in every way so they will reveal Him more and more. The Creator is revealed in the ten to the extent of the unity of intentions. It takes work to overcome differences and create qualities that conform to the Creator

Spiritual work is preparing a place for light, revelation of the Creator. This is done in the ten to the extent we bond for the sake of this goal and draw the correcting light, OM [Ohr Makif], which returns us to the Source, the Creator, who will turn us into one whole, like the Creator.

We’re driven by one force.
It determines the connections between us.
It controls us, whether we want it or not.
If we resemble a common network, we’ll reveal that force.
All changes happen only in us—
To live in revelation or concealment of that force.
This is our fate…

In Kabbalah it’s particularly difficult for a person to defend his opinions.
He feels danger in going against the common opinion.
And even more so, in speaking the truth. Beastly fear comes over him.
After all, his truth isn’t apparent and egoistic society is set against Kabbalah

Not submitting to society’s opinion, holding on to one’s right to the truth—only importance of the goal can raise one above fear of rejection. Every Kabbalist goes against society and conquers fear, the #evil force. The rest return to the customary world. (See Shamati #4)

Revealing the upper world is tuning yourself to perceive in the quality of bestowal, rather than through society. This tuning is done in the group. But when one’s perception changes, one starts to fear being separated from the world, as if he leaves the world. So he leaves BB.

One always sees the #world through others, unaware to himself.
One always perceives a #reality distorted by others’ opinion.
When a person knows about choosing the group, he changes his perception to a group when under pressure of group values, even if the group is clearly wrong.

We choose the opinion that society chooses, even if we understand that it is false, irrational, and goes against common sense. A person makes decisions by the principle “like everyone,” influenced by others’ similar behavior. His reward is confidence!
#Reality_ML #Kabbalah

Since what we see in our surroundings is our own internal reflection,
The only way to attain revelation of reality (that’s outside of us) is by attuning ourselves to the ten as to a single whole.
This #revelation of reality is practical #Kabbalah
#Reality_ML #Society #perception

#Envy makes us exert.
Envy is useful if it leads to the goal.
I value envy for it is the lifeline
That the friends extend to one who drowns.
I hold on to it and thus, I want
The friends to be taller and stronger,
Since they are my only hope
#unity #MotivationalQuotes #wisdom

The upper nature is a system connecting us into one whole.
But we see a broken world.
Just as we draw a picture and break it up into parts
For a child to put it together and understand,
That’s how we have to put ourselves, our broken world, together correctly,
Using hints from above.

That’s on the level of our world. But in the spiritual world it’s the other way around!

We always see the world through the ten. That’s how all of reality was created—as 10 qualities of the Creator’s name-HaVaYaH. This is why we accept others’ opinion, since we perceive the “reality” that comes to us through them.

… Everything is included in one another, the good inclination and the bad inclination, right and left, #Israel and the rest of the nations, #white and #black. Everything depends on one another.
– The #Zohar, Kedoshim, 7-8.

“Out of #darkness came forth light, and out of concealment came forth and revealed the deep. One came out of the other. Out of good came forth bad, and out of mercy came forth judgment ….”
– The #Zohar, Kedoshim, 7-8.

In modern life, which is globally interdependent, such an approach is very much needed.
#globalization #life

I invite everyone to the World Kabbalah Convention 2018 . I am sure that everyone will head home with a healthy, rational, and practical approach to life, both in relation to everyone’s personal lives, as well as to the world in general.

If it is important for us to find our optimal place in the world, and to have happier and easier lives, then it is important for us to at least learn and experience a little of what Kabbalah has to offer. #happiness #MeaningOfLife

The wisdom of Kabbalah opens up a new and improved map of the world, showing where the #world is headed, and explaining the laws of nature: why and how they work on us.

It addresses the education of both adults and youth according to what is most important in life, how to prioritize human values and engagements, and how to plan personal, domestic and national #life in order to bring about a harmonious #future generation.

… but as a substantive method through which we need to upgrade ourselves and the world in all of its fields.
The wisdom of #Kabbalah explains the structure of human relations on personal, domestic, social, national, and global scales.

Question: What is the main reason a person should attend a Kabbalah convention?

Answer: We are in a state where the wisdom of Kabbalah is becoming more and more widely recognized, not as it has been popularly misconceived throughout history, as religion, mysticism or magic …

May 3-6, 2018 will mark this year’s biggest spiritual event, the annual World Kabbalah Convention in Newark, New Jersey, and we’d love for you to join in the unforgettable connections and life-changing experiences that you’ll share with 100s of like-minded, friendly people.

We create our conventions in a way where there is no need to have any prior knowledge, preparation, or accolades in order to attend. However, anyone who wants to come and participate, even a person off the street, can do so. http://one.kabbalah.info

It’s not just for the 500 or so people who will attend, or few thousand that will connect and listen to it, but for those millions and billions who need to hear something related to connection, unity, mutual guarantee, the #purpose of life, which we discuss at the convention.

The higher up from the animate degree a person grows,
The more the intention determines the essence of the action,
Until only the intention, the upper world, remains…
#quotes #success

The public’s victory in the struggle for privacy will be possible when we begin to develop our “inner human,” and connect meaningfully and positively to others. It is through mutual relations that we will discover nature’s hidden force @Medium #privacy

The world will be redeemed from egoistic nature only by the dissemination of Kabbalah among the nations.
Kabbalah will explain the upper wisdom to the nations, preserved by the nation of Israel for them, and people will realize the reason for their prejudice to the nation of Israel.

Kabbalah Conventions: What Role Do They Play In Solving The World’s Problems? How Do They Accelerate #Spiritual Progress? Do They Require Prior #Knowledge?

Answer: We need to promote our conventions, especially the convention in North America, since from it and onward, waves of information about the world’s correction will spread around the world, and everyone around the world will be impressed by what happens there.

Most opponents of Kabbalah wish to wipe it out so it won’t exist at all—then they won’t feel pangs of guilt regarding being weak and lazy about going against their own nature, ascending up the Creator’s mountain. This way they seemingly prove how right they are!

Everything outside of us is the Creator!
He presents Himself in opposite, repulsive qualities. Upon this, we build our spiritual, anti-egoistic desire (Kli).
There is no will to bestow in us. But our will to receive with a screen works as a will to bestow.
#Kabbalah

The Creator is revealed in the union of the 10, where each person cancels himself to 0. It’s unity of equals, despite all of them being different: by annulling, our 10 zeros come together into one zero containing 10 zeros, like 10 Sefirot.
#SpiritualWork_ML #Kabbalah

No one is free of #social pressure. If society thinks that “the emperor is not naked,” then in spite of the obvious, as long as society thinks this, one has to be brave to go against its norms. Society is ready to suppress anyone rejecting its sacred values!

A person lives by society’s values, not his own.
Besides necessities for his body, the rest is evaluated only by his pride, which is fulfilled by society.
Therefore, we need a #society that will imbue us with the value of spiritual progress—then we’ll advance.
#freedom

The upper nature is a system connecting us into one whole.
But we see a broken world.
Just as we draw a picture and break it up into parts
For a child to put it together and understand,
That’s how we have to put ourselves, our broken world, together correctly,
Using hints from above.

The upper world is only revealed in our generation.
The past was only about preparation.
Never before was spirituality revealed,
but today, it is.
Hence, our generation is called the Mashiach’s generation.
Even though we still hate each other…
#Reality @ML_Kabbalah

Man lives not by his own values, but that of the society.
Besides bodily necessities, the rest is only appraised by his pride,
which the society fulfills.
Hence, we need a society that regards spiritual advancement
as valuable, then you can advance.
#Free_will_ML #Kabbalah

In our world, the ego approves of society’s opinion, for this increases it.
On the spiritual path, the ego opposes connection with the group, for this decreases it.
A Kabbalist must choose group’s or society’s opinion. “The Torah’s opinion is contrary to the society’s opinion.”

We discover that we’ve grown by being disillusioned in life.
The developed ego shuts us in,
And we become bound—herein lies the crisis,
“Babeldom.”
And just like in Babylon, we need an Abraham…
#Spiritual_work_ML #Kabbalah

“Uncontrollable urges arise in man,
So that he sees what a tiny animal he is.
To turn to the Creator,
Ask to acquire importance of the goal,
For all the disturbances
To be of lower importance than the goal.
To raise and not lower him…

There’s no good or evil. There are two forces: bestowal and reception. They must unite in one intention. The process of their unification forges the states of the world. Observe it impartially, or you won’t understand it. “A judge is guided only by his eyes,” not heart.

I can’t get rid of egoism
Since I don’t see it correctly:
Only hindrances to unity need correction!

How long must I wander,
Till I realize
What needs to be corrected…

I tried correcting myself for so long,
Till I realized:
It’s unity with the group that needs correction!

Torah is intended only to correct man and practically bring him to union with the Creator—here, in this world, in our unity, to correct the Creator’s concealment, the broken common soul.
Torah is light that returns us to (equivalence with) the Creator.

“A field blessed by the Creator” is the opportunity we have to work in the ten, where we must gather all the parts of our common soul, which now seem divided to us, and unite them into one desire, a spiritual body. Then the Creator will reign inside it.

There’s harmony all around us.
All calamities are the influence of the intensifying good light,
Which we aren’t able to properly receive!

An egoist is someone
Who’s against unity in the group.
All others are animals!

Shift your focus
From yourself to the group—
Then you are looking at the place of the Creator’s revelation…

I created egoism—
The Creator meant
That He manifested in the breakage of the soul.

One who encounters Pharaoh, one’s ego
And submits to him, willing to work for some grub,
Remains there, unaware of enslavement in the ego,
Justifying himself and awaiting rewards.

The Creator is attained by one who overcomes
The ascent against the ego;
In unity, he reveals the Creator.

A newcomer arrives to find out about Kabbalah,
At first he’s satisfied, but then challenges arise,
Followed by complaints.

Entry to the upper world is described in Torah:
After he came to Pharaoh, things got worse!
But how else can we escape from him?

In vain do you ascribe to Me
Your rewards and punishments—
Since you’re the ones who act, and receive!

To execute or pardon, to lift or drop—
Only the upper light.
But the preparation (Kli) determines the experience…

Jews do not fulfill their mission, causing misery
There’s just one remedy:
Nations, force them to unite!

That’s what the prophet said:
“The nations of the world will bring Israel to Jerusalem,
To fulfill their mission!”

I do not change HaVaYa—it’s you
Who sees the world—your thoughts and actions
On the backdrop of the even, good light

The Creator’s plan doesn’t change, the light is at rest.
The things that happen are the light’s reactions to our actions.
Kabbalah teaches how to act according to the light.

In every person there is a spark demanding adhesion with the Creator. Stirring at times, it awakens a desire to know the Creator or deny Him, which is the same. If a person finds a way to satisfy this desire, he will agree to anything.

#Elijah the prophet: “The nations shall carry the people of #Israel to the Creator’s home.” i.e., the nations’ mission is to help the Jews attain bestowal (Light) in unity and pass it to the nations, thus bringing the world to liberation from the ego and #oneness with the Creator.

Jews suffer for millennia,
Not wishing to accept the reason for others’ hatred of them!
A truly stiffnecked people…

The truth has touched me:
The mission of the Jews is to deliver the Creator’s light to this world –
To shift the world from hatred to love.

#Antisemitism depends only on the Jews! After all, nations of the world have no freewill since they lack the two desires: to receive and (the point) to bestow, but have only the will to receive. Freewill is built precisely between these two desires.
#Kabbalah #freedom

Personal blows don’t count—
They aren’t spiritual!
Only hindrances to the group’s unity are spiritual!

Blows in the group are
Revisions of unification—
Until the Light illuminates inside!

From the start of the path till the end—
All actions—
Are only greater unity of the group!

The group exalts the path—gives energy
So I am certain
That we will reach the goal!

If we’re together,
Then one person’s tribulations
Are no longer necessary for another to go through…

The group receives group blows
Precisely in them
The whole group comes out to the Light!

The nations demand that the Jews fulfill their mission, sensing subconsciously that they aren’t. The Jews must be a pipeline that fills our world with goodness from the upper world. Yehuda Ashlag, Matan Torah: “But by not being united, they fulfill neither themselves nor others.”

#Antisemitism #Kabbalah We must imagine clearly that only the Jews have freewill, and so only they cause all the tragedies. Refusing to understand this is doubly imprudent: like a baby who thinks that by closing his eyes, the bad disappears!—Open your eyes!

The group must only praise
Unity—then each person
Will have the strength to unite

Every state should not be assessed personally,
But how it is in the group,
Does it cause greater unity?

To understand the meaning of blows,
One has to see their necessity
For greater unity

The soul’s body—the nations of the world, can’t draw Light, be corrected, and reveal the Creator inside them. He is revealed in them (Ohr Panimi of a Partzuf) only by actions of the head (Rosh) – Isra-El, Li Rosh, which like a pipe, only transmits upper Light from the Creator to the nations.

It’s the body of the #soul that feels a need for the light! The unity of creation with the Creator takes place in the body of the soul (Partzuf)—this is where an extreme need for that is felt. If Isra-El doesn’t fulfill its mission, it makes itself unnecessary in this world.

THE SOCIAL NETWORK IN THE AGE OF THE THIRD REICH
Long before the Holocaust, Kabbalist Baal HaSulam warned people about it and tried to prevent it. The Jews of #Europe did not heed his words back then. Now, history can repeat itself.
#YomHashoah #HolocaustMemorialDay #EU

#HolocaustRemembranceDay is doubled mourning for Kabbalists. One would think that after such a terrible tragedy, the Holocaust, people would wake up and study the wisdom of #Kabbalah, which offers a chance to resolve the problem of #Antisemitism once and for all.

#HolocaustRemembranceDay is the right time to ask ourselves what is the reason for the hatred of Jews throughout history? And is there a true solution to #Antisemitism? Into Truth reveals Kabbalah’s eye-opening answers:

Suffering doesn’t bring man closer to the Creator because the spiritual idea, unity, is opposite to ego and isn’t revealed by #suffering. Suffering doesn’t bring the understanding that Jews must unite, be a Light onto the nations, but rather the blows come to return us to our mission.

Relax, let your heart be closer to the friend.
Let go of resistance.
Set yourself free, like a bird from a cage.

In the group it’s clear:
Each person receives blows
Required for the group, not him

Shift from self-protection
To firmness toward yourself,
Giving rise to tenderness toward the friend…

#Antisemitism
It’s our own fault that the #Holocaust happened, and not the nations’ of the world who have no free choice. By not carrying out correction, we Jews elicited the birth of #fascism, #Nazism. It’s difficult to realize, but it’s how the system of governance works.

#YomHashoah
On the day we remember the six million
We must make sure
That it won’t repeat.
But how can we guarantee a future
That’s already starting to materialize
As a new Holocaust?
We must delve into Nature’s program
And change it. This is the Creator’s plan.
We must do this!

The #Holocaust brewed for 2,000 years.
It’s a result of evading correction.
Neglecting the Creator’s plan.
#HolocaustRemembranceDay

The #Holocaust was a result of 2,000 years of evading the obligation to be corrected and transmit light to the nations, from the head to the body of the soul of Adam, all #humanity.
#HolocaustMemorialDay

#Antisemitism
It has to be clear that only Jews have freedom of choice—therefore, we’re the ones causing all the tragedies. Not wanting to understand this is foolish—like a baby that thinks closing its eyes and not seeing a scary thing means it’s not there!
Open your eyes!

We must realize the reason for the #Holocaust so it won’t repeat.
But we still haven’t learned any lessons! We won’t be able to hide even in Israel if we don’t fulfill our obligations. We can’t run away from our mission, from the Creator—it says so in the #Torah.
#Antisemitism

If one ponders it, he’ll see that he’s the one opening the door to the oven for himself…
It wasn’t the Nazis’ fault, who served as robots/executioners, but the Jews, who have freedom of will and behaved improperly.
It’s horrible, but the nation of Israel burned its own self!

Find out why people hate the Jews >> 

This, as I understand it, is the meaning of being “a light for the nations.” If we follow the path of solidarity rather than trying to disprove anti-Semitic libels, we will be able to finally uproot #Antisemitism, and in the process heal many of the world’s ills.

It is the essence of our people. We became a nation when we united “as one man with one heart,” under the motto “love your neighbor as yourself.” Now we should revive that quality, share it with the world, and become a beacon of solidarity to the nations.

The one thing that can reverse the social, economic, and political crises ravaging the world is solidarity. Alas, no one knows how to establish it. We, Jews, have that ability latent in our nation’s “genes.”

It seems to me that our fate as #Jews is to establish a society based on solidarity and mutual responsibility, and to share the principles of that society with the rest of the world.

In my view, the fundamental reason for hatred of Jews is the lack of solidarity among us. It is not so much what we do or have, but simply that we are disunited. [More about why people hate the Jews >> NeverAgain_Course …] #Antisemitism

After years of searching for answers, I realized that we cannot settle for reminding ourselves and the world what had happened; we should also discuss why it happened. This is the point where I’d like to make a small contribution to the discourse.

The majority of my family was wiped out by the #Holocaust. Growing up as a young child in the wake of such a catastrophe impacted my life in a very profound way.

Once again #Israel came to a standstill this morning for two whole minutes, while we honored the souls that perished in the worst atrocity for the Jews.

#Spiritualwork #Kabbalah
The nation of Israel, which emerged from Abraham’s group, according to nature’s plan of development, must reveal the upper force, the Creator, in its unity, and influence all humanity with the force of its unity.
See “Preface of The Book of #Zohar“-Item 61

As mankind develops, it reaches despair and instinctively blames Abraham’s group for its miseries. The more developed the nations of the world are, the more they complain, demanding that the Jews fulfill their preordained mission.
#Spiritualwork_ML #Kabbalah #Antisemitism

6. #Antisemitism, whose tragic outcome was the #Holocaust, results from the nation of Israel not fulfilling its mission. We must study our responsibility in the world and fulfill our mission. That will guarantee that the Holocaust will not happen again.
#Neveragain #Israel

5. After mingling with the nations for 2000 years, Israel must unite to transmit light from the Creator to the nations of the world. The nations spur Israel toward correction with their negative attitude to Israel’s neglect of its mission.
#Israel #jewish #Antisemitic

4. The nation underwent development of the ego in Egypt and its correction by reception of Torah. It attained unity and revelation of the Creator in it but then fell back into ego—the fall of the 1st and 2nd Temples, so as to mingle with other nations for 2,000 years of exile, to then correct itself and them.

3. Therein lies the #meaning of mankind’s #development. Our calling is not achievements in the realm of this world. The nation of Israel’s mission is to give an example of unity to the nations of the world, to return everyone to the common soul of Adam, as before its breakage.

2. Abraham taught unity since that’s how one becomes similar to upper light and transmits it to those who haven’t awakened to Abraham’s call.
This group (the nation of #Israel) must serve as a pipeline transmitting upper light to the nations of the world—”a light onto the nations”

1. After breaking, the soul of Adam divided into two:
-souls that awaken to upper light. Abraham gathered them in a group called #Israel (straight to the Creator), through which upper light will pass to all mankind
-souls that don’t respond to the light. They remained in Babylon.

Having witnessed the #Holocaust, we must correct its cause—neglect of Kabbalah. Then every person in the world will strengthen the need of the soul over the body #the world will attain unity with the Creator (“Preface to The Book of #Zohar 70)
#Jewish #Israeli #Antisemitism

“Preface to The Book of Zohar” 70: A #Jew studying external #Torah or Kabbalah elicits the fall or rise of the whole world, respectively.
One who merely carries out commandments, not wishing to understand their meaning—elicits poverty and theft in the world!
#Jewish #Israeli

If a Jew studies #Kabbalah, he causes Israel to rise.
If a Jew lowers the importance of Kabbalah, which talks about correction of the soul, compared to the external #Torah, which talks about mechanical observance, he causes #Israel to be lowered.
“Preface to The Book of #Zohar“ 68

It’s impossible to rise to the 50th gate since it is the final exit from egoism. Therefore, man cries out and the upper light, the Creator Himself, saves him. There is no more work against egoism, but on the contrary, desires are used to bestow instead of egoistically.
#Kabbalah

On the border with Gaza
Attacks on Israel won’t stop … #Israel isn’t just a country. Israel is, firstly, the #Jewish nation, with a specific mission in this world: to become a united nation, showing the world an example of living in peace and harmony.

#SpiritualWork starts with “NO”—prohibitions, to come out of egoism. To rise up from the ego and fall back down, even deeper, in order to rise higher. Ascent is uniting with the group, descent is separation. That’s how we go through the 49 gates of impurity (ego) as we rise above it.

#Zohar, Vaihi 412: If #Israel does good deeds before the Creator, the nations do not rise up against it.

Only we have this solution!

#Israel takes pride in its technological achievements in vain. This isn’t what the nations of the world expect from us. Ignorant of our mission, we think we can be proud of this. But the nations expect us to solve the problem of #peace and #connection between them.
When the nations implement this rule, the Redeemer (Mashiah) will appear and bring everyone to unity with the Creator.

The nation of #Israel is an intermediate link between the nations of the world and the Creator. To the extent Israel carries out the #Torah (its main law, “Love the neighbor as yourself”), it transmits this to the nations.
#Antisemitism appeared with the giving of Torah, as the Jews received the ability to draw upper light and the responsibility to pass it to the nations/be a light for them. Actualizing this determines how the nations of the world and the Creator feel about us. They are subconsciously waiting!

“Love will cover all sins”—
The sins remain
But are corrected by love.

There are no prohibitions,
Except one:
Not for your sake, but for others’ sake…

I checked myself
And was assured:
“The opinions of Torah and common men are opposite”

The knife that cleanses the body of the ego
Is importance of the Creator.
Remove the peel—and bond with Him.

The conditions of coming out to the light are hidden
1,000 enter, but only 1 comes out
How?—Be attractive to the Creator!

Peel the ego off of you
Like removing peel from a fruit on Passover
Then you will be free!
“The monster will swallow and spew out”
After that, man
Will be able to correct it.

Does the Creator make mistakes?
The Light is at absolute rest—
So it cannot err!

Most important is to lose yourself!
Instead of yourself, you’ll acquire others,
In them, you’ll feel the world and the Creator
We’ll turn the guards’ hindrances into a bond
With prayer—then we won’t lose the friends
And will reach the summit

Since Abraham’s times
We lose friends at each degree!
That’s how the Head of the Soul is created

Moses fled his brethren’s snitching
For killing the Egyptian
Inside himself…
The aim of global development is revelation of the One Good Force, the Creator, in unity of nations. This depends on unity of Jews—vehicles of the Creator’s revelation to the world. If #Jews are passive, they’ll be pressured by the nations until they fulfill their mission.

As mankind develops, it reaches despair and instinctively blames Abraham’s group for its miseries. The more developed the nations of the world are, the more they complain, demanding that the Jews fulfill their preordained mission.
#Spiritualwork_ML #Kabbalah #Israeli

My sons have defeated me:
By their unity, they’ve forced me
To be revealed in them!

We unite—Creator is closer.
We separate—Creator is farther.
This determines life!

The Creator is a concealed field
By uniting, we enter it,
And blend with it.

The Creator stood me up, like a baby
In front of Him. Waiting for me to take a step.
I stagger and cry …

How much to take from the treasury of the Creator?—
As much as you can give to the friends.
It is the fulfillment of the soul.
Reflected light sparkles,
striking out of desire the sparks of light and love.
#life #quote

I learn from the ego to be a faithful servant of the Creator.
When I learn from it, I’ll become like the Creator!
Great wisdom: to grow under the skin of selfishness
Fruit—the desire for love and bestowal.
To peel away, after it matures.
#success #Motivation

Our #world has become unsuitable to live in.
But it needn’t be corrected—
Let’s rise to the upper world!

In exile we feel growing distance between us and bestowal, the Creator’s greatness, in order to experience the exile and strive to come out of it. Therefore, exile ends in the sense of total debility and despair! This is the end of the exile—Egyptian darkness!

Building the Creator’s greatness is a lifetime’s work. All of my inherent qualities exist only for this. The image of the Creator’s greatness is the image of my #soul. The soul is the form of the group, 10 Sefirot, and its filling is the greatness of the Creator, upper light.

Sensation of the Creator’s greatness lies in constant thought about Him, like a mother who must leave her baby, but her heart stays with it. Likewise, we’re always with the Creator. His greatness determines this state. On the priorities scale, nothing can compare to Him.

#Passover is realization of the Creator’s greatness. Inasmuch as we increase the sensation of His greatness between us, that’s how much we will advance. If one’s life is guided by the Creator’s greatness, he never errs. All his states will be stages of spiritual progress.

To clean the husk of intentions off myself—
Barriers to unite with the group—
The condition of breaking through to Him. Pesach!

The Creator’s greatness gives pleasure
In ridding oneself of the evil-Pharaoh
Though the notion of fleeing isn’t clear…

Even being born with a point in the heart
You are one of thousands entering the class
Will you complete it? Only if the Creator wishes it.

The impulse to destroy the ego is that same ego!
The right way is to turn to the Creator
On your own you’ll only double it!

49 impure gates close us in the group,
50th turns evil to love.
All the gates reveal the Creator’s greatness.

What a gift to be born with a point in the heart—
It’s the Creator giving me a chance!
How do I not miss it? I worry…

Humanity doesn’t know #Israel’s mission and why it hates #Jews.
Concealment from above is in force.
Throughout #history, Abraham’s group also forgot this mission and didn’t understand why others hate them.
But #AntiSemitism will disappear when the Creator’s plan is implemented

Abraham’s group attained unity (1st Temple). It then fell into hatred—fall of the 1st and 2nd Temples. Then for 2,000 years it mingled with the nations. Now the nation of Israel is starting to unite, followed by all nations. The nation of Israel must correct humanity.
#Antisemitism

The aim of global development is revelation of the One Good Force, the Creator, in unity of #nations. This depends on unity of #Jews—vehicles of the Creator’s #revelation to the world. If Jews are passive, they’ll be pressured by the nations until they fulfill their mission.

The ego is a monster, devouring all my efforts
Then disgorging them at once
Turning them from reception to bestowal, to my joy!

The ego stems from the Creator
It isn’t harmful, but only if used
Why it’s called “help against self”
#EGO #Egoist #consciousness

The ego devours, #competition begets #wars
I know how to give everyone EVERYTHING
And not at the expense of others
