Our main problem is our division. The tensions and extreme differences of opinion, the covert and overt #hatred, #intolerance toward other views, exploitation of others, are destroying our #society

My Thoughts On Twitter, 3/4/18

Dr Michael Laitman Twitter

As man keeps failing in all areas of life, his faith in #religions, #mysticism, charms and other “havens” will vanish. A cornered humanity will be ready for anything, even the transition to the principle “Love your friend as yourself.”

#Kabbalist_advice
– Does man attain the Creator after much suffering and pain?
– Not necessarily. Man must suffer, but this must be the suffering of love, like someone in love who yearns for the object of his #passion. Therefore, there is #suffering, but it’s sweet.

The attainment of a new degree is followed immediately by a descent. One must accept it with understanding and gratitude, with a “prayer to return the soul to the Creator.” So that one can get an even greater #ego to correct in the next #life, in an ascent. #Spiritualwork_ML

Each member of the group must fill it with livelihood daily. The friend who weakens along the way feels the influence of the group and that it breaths into him the spirit of life and strength to reach the goal, so that obstacles and weakness disappear by the power of the group.

Spiritual #salvation from the #ego comes only to those who demand it immediately. And to someone who can wait—it will never come. To achieve such a perfect desire and demand is possible only in strengthening unity with the friends, which makes the demand absolute. #bestowal

It is necessary to constantly care about increasing the #connection and love because the ego keeps emerging, causing the connection to cool down. When receiving gifts from the Creator in the form of nearing, one must cultivate his increasing gratitude, which reveals the Creator.

– What is #suffering from the viewpoint of #Kabbalah?
– Suffering from the viewpoint of Kabbalah is sensations that appear as a result of being disconnected from others.

The Purim Story Actually Explains the Solution for Social Division and Anti-Semitism …

#Antisemitism

#Kabbalist_advice
– What do you mean by the ego?
– The ego is resistance to unity.
#ego

On the #spiritual #path worldly thoughts sometimes capture & subordinate a person. And only when he blindly clings to the teacher and books can he return to the right thoughts and desires. And no clever objections will help—only a blind adhesion to the teacher & the sources.

When waking up, connect the first moment with the #Creator, for Him to keep you connected to Him 24 hours, so that nothing hides Him from you. And constantly check if something conceals the Creator from you. And if it does, immediately ask the Creator for constant adhesion.

When one receives support, he feels a taste in spiritual work. The support is to fight the ego. If he doesn’t use it against the ego & sees nothing to fight, the support is withdrawn and he craves the earthly again. So one must overcome himself until receiving help from above.

If one began spiritual work not waiting for the desire to be given by the Creator, and the desire for truth pushes him forward, then if one fears losing the Creator’s #oneness, he asks for help and the Creator gives it. Expecting help from the Creator, he won’t receive it.

Having assumed the will of the Creator, a person doesn’t feel burdened by #spiritual work and can constantly adhere to the Creator. Only a fool doesn’t suffer in isolation from the Creator, or by the act of bestowal or prayer he would be calling for the Creator to help him.

#Faith should be as if you are standing before the Creator with love & trepidation. Until you reach such faith—do not rest and do not sell yourself for earthly awards that neutralize spiritual desires & pain. But worrying about such a threat guards one against descents. #quote

Today a small illumination fills ego-desires, hence the world & science hit a dead end, a crisis, no breakthroughs. We’re left to clarify connections of various phenomena. This allows us to recognize the world’s boundaries & total interconnection of all its parts. #consciousness

All #sciences besides Kabbalah are revealed w/ a weak light that can shine into desires to receive w/ the intention for oneself. So our whole #world exists w/o intention to bestow. But this small illumination allows the egoistic desires to mature to the necessity for correction.

#Kabbalist_advice
– Why does a person become more lonely with age?
– Because nobody needs him. You need to make it so that people will have for you, so you could help them. And then everything will be good, and you won’t feel lonely. #loneliness

#Mankind is entering a new age. This transition takes place in the ongoing evolution of our perception of the world. We’re no longer just material in the Creator’s hands, but are actually contributing to our development. This is why #Kabbalah is being revealed. #Evolution

No matter how unpleasant the circumstance, try to imagine everything stemming from the Creator. If you attribute everything that happens to Him, keep doing it, stubbornly, until you begin to sense #Evil as Good, and may even reveal the Creator.

The main thing is to attribute all problems exclusively to the Creator, no matter how contradictory they may appear to Him. And then we’ll see that though they initially separated us from the Creator, if we exert to attribute them to #Him, the separating events connect us to Him.

By connecting among ourselves in the group/ten, we picture ourselves #TOGETHER and thus draw the upper light OM. It brings us closer. We try to draw closer, and to the extent of our efforts, the light changes us and brings us to the 1st unification–the #spiritual embryo

Only by aspiring to leave the ego’s authority (Haman, intention for self), I discover its power over me in thoughts/desires. #ego #egoistic #Haman

A question arises: How do I use desires w/o intention for myself (Haman’s intention), but for the Creator’s pleasure, w/ intention to bestow (Mordecai) #purim2018 #Haman

“The Creator’s nation” is when people are completely interconnected with the law of total bestowal, love, mutual aid. When they live in the sensation of “WE” and not “I.” #we #love #mutualaid

One who wishes to reveal the #Creator reveals evil, plus the chance to confirm that it comes deliberately from the Creator, to help one hold on to the thought “there is none else besides Him.” And if one remains convinced that everything comes from the Creator, one reveals Him!

Just as #Israel turns 70, a new global wave of #Antisemitism is upon us. It is masked as legitimate criticism of the state of Israel. Its goal is to strip away Israel’s right to exist. Its root and cause is explained in The Preface to The Book of Zohar (to be continued…)

The #ego in which we were developing had exhausted itself. Development stimuli (#money & #power for which we studied/worked) have dried up. Distorted forms: abstract work & money. Global #crisis of humanity. The recognition of the necessity to create a society similar to nature.

#Purim teaches us that the next stage in mankind’s development is prosecution of Jews by the world’s #Antisemitism, by all nations & countries for their troubles. Germany was a mere rehearsal for the world #Holocaust. Salvation, as in Purim, is only in unification of the

#Purim. The need to transition toward relationships of love & bestowal arises when the ego manifests its endless power, and it becomes clear that it threatens and leads us to destruction, a world war. Only then do we come to need the method of Kabbalah, to change ourselves.

The Creator purposely puts the EGO #Haman to govern the world. And only when man realizes that the ego threatens his existence, he turns to the Creator for help so as to defeat the Haman in him. It follows that with his threat to destroy, Haman helps man awaken to Creator.

Social media is in crisis. Bots (posts and comments (from nonexisting ppl) & fake news have flooded the Internet, forcing users to retreat into discussion niches. Like a cancer, the #ego kills the body and dies along with it! The solution lies only in curing the ego! #FakeNews

Before the Holiday of #Purim we must realize that we can’t oppose our huge, #evil ego. The righteous within us is weak, sitting on a rock at the king’s gates like Mordechai – an old man nobody reckons with.
And our ego, Haman, rules in us like the right hand of the king, Creator.

#Purim is the kindest holiday, revealing the Creator’s mercy. It symbolizes man’s entire spiritual work. All the holidays speak of breaking the broken soul of #Adam that must be made similar (Adame) to the Creator. And Purim speaks of concluding the process of correction.

My latest on @newsmax Laws Won’t Cure Social Epidemic of Gun Violence —

We must focus on building a value system within the person & a social environment around the person, which balance the human ego and direct it toward positive realization.  #Shootings

In the future, all holidays except Purim will be abolished, for Purim is the final correction of egoism by the full Upper light. We gradually correct 288 parts of egoism out of its 320 parts. In each correction, we involuntarily correct 32 parts, thereby revealing the whole Light

The meaning of the month of Adar is in overcoming thoughts & desires arising in man against the Creator, His #singularity, which distances from Him. It’s necessary to see obstacles as sent by the Creator himself – to give one an opportunity to come closer to Him in spite of them.

Preparation for #Purim – awareness of ego’s evil nature, Haman, ready to kill anyone wanting to unite to be similar to the Creator, the quality of bestowal & love. But there is no strength to resist Haman. Find who dominates you, Haman or Mordechai, and accept Mordechai’s power.

#Purim

Haman believed he could destroy Jews, because they are separated from each other and therefore separated from the Creator, thus deprived of His support. But Mordechai brought Jews closer together and to the Creator, thereby defeating #Haman and saving the Jews from extermination.

#Purim in the month of Adar distances man from the Creator. Hence there’s room for effort to go against common sense and doubt in His governance, and claim that it all comes from the need to lead us to efforts to trust in “There is none else besides Him” until He reveals Himself.

Psalm_91 He who dwells in the shelter of the Highest. My refuge & fortress my #GOD, in Him I trust. He will cover you with His wing. You will see the recompense of the wicked. For GOD is my pillar. No evil will touch me, for He has loved me. He saved me for I have known His name.

Dr Michael Laitman Twitter

#Attainment of the Upper world, the Creator, or my future undergoes 125 steps. Each of them requires an answer regarding the meaning of life, agreement with the Creator, and how I implement it. It turns out that with my attitude to the Creator, I define my future, I control Him.

In spirituality there is no time; so, there are no corporeal questions. The spiritual question arises from the difference between the present and the future. Hence, in spirituality there is only a question of attainment, and greater perfection, greater disclosure of the Creator.

The #Torah is not a historical narration. It’s about the development of the desire in us, about how to manage it, and how to rise above the power of the ego-desire (to exit Egypt), which locks us in ego-worries. And we must see ourselves as exiting from the ego, or Egypt.

Problems in a kabbalistic group are solely from lack of unity. The group doesn’t think enough about itself as one whole. It is vital to think not about one’s problem but about including all into one. Therein lies similarity to the Creator and impact of the Reforming #Light.

The correct answer comes only from the connection with the group, because in it resides the force of bestowal, the Creator. Hence, Kabbalists say not to solve anything with a corporeal mind but only with the ten. Then the answer is from above, from the power of your #development.

Every step forward on the #spiritual path requires closing the door behind so as to not escape. The door closes behind and opens in the front – like in a sluice – there is no way back. After all, it is the path of a gradual exit from #egoism, which is my whole nature.

“Preface to the Book of #Zohar“: The cause of hatred toward Jews is that the Jews, as carriers of the method for mankind’s correction, don’t actualize it by “Love thy neighbor as thyself” and reveal the Creator, and thus they conceal happiness from the world. #AntiSemitism

Poll: The credibility of the #media in the world tends to zero. Followed by the sector of financial services. Concern for the rating pushes to attract the reader at any cost, which destroys the credibility of the media. Will a global, independent source of #information emerge?
