#Global_unity: Every nation has a force compelling it to aspire to its traditional form, rejecting outside factors that shake it out of natural state. Therefore, the nations must connect only above their natural egos. And this is only possible with #Kabbalah!
#Concealment_Choice_Faith CONCEALMENT: problems force us to reveal that the Creator fills all of reality and governs it. CHOICE: I exert to picture the Creator’s rule in all of His concealment. FAITH: It is revealed that the Creator truly fills the whole world. #faith
#Freedom: One is responsible only for the actions freely chosen, but not those that happen unwittingly. The environment calibrates him to the right actions, and ultimately determines all of them. That is, #choice is not in which action to take, but which environment to be in!
The Book of Zohar is especially important for our correction. It is the Kabbalistic commentary on the Torah. The Torah contains all the information about the world, but Zohar was written to correct it, precisely for our generation, to reveal the upper light that corrects the soul
If a generation isn’t ready for #correction, the wisdom of Kabbalah remains concealed. Baal HaSulam (Y. Ashlag) wrote many compositions, many of which he concealed and even burned, because he was restricted in disseminating Kabbalah.
#Wisdom_of_Kabbalah was always concealed, for it is revealed only as ppl become ready to correct themselves, i.e. as they recognize the evil in themselves & the world, in order to use the wisdom for the correction. That is why special preparation is required for its revelation.
By taking spiritual (beyond the ego) terms from #kabbalah, ppl described what’s in Kabbalah as happening in our world, without exiting the ego. The description became clear to the masses, leading to study & dissemination in the world. Thus #Theology (root of religions) was born.
We must determine: all the problems are sent by the Creator to force us to turn to Him, put Him between us, or we won’t be able to keep hold in the raging #ego. We must draw Him into our lives. To decide that He determines our existence. To feel the necessity of Him.
The people around me are actually part of me. If I’m in harmony with myself, I’ll be in harmony with them–thus we achieve perfection in the world. To achieve a perfect reality, we must become perfect ourselves. #Reality_ML #success #Wisdom
The #Creator made only one ten (HAVAYA, 4 stages of OY). It has developed, shattered into pieces, souls. So as to attain the Creator in unity. Thus we must organize into tens and unite in a way that the ten assumes the Creator’s form, 10 as 1—and we’ll #reveal_the_Creator.
The common #religion of all nations must compel all societies to carry out the main commandment for all nations: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” Aside from this, each nation can adhere to its own customs. Rabbi #Akiva (2nd century AD): “This is the main #Law_of_the_Torah.”
Only in efforts to unite 10 friends as 1, with the help of OM, we attain the quality of love/bestowal, #Creator’s_quality, who clothes into the connection between us. Don’t look for the Creator outside the ten. Not even His concealment exists there—this we also reveal in the 10.
He who overcomes crisis overcomes himself. #success #QouteOfTheDay #Wisdom
The #Creator is a law of nature. Thus, He doesn’t change anything (ani havaya lo shiniti). He’s constant. You’re in a computer program running from the start to the end of creation. But as you become like Him, you reveal everything. This gives the sensation of #eternal_life
Cause of the crisis? A single force entering society without congruence. It’s possible to get rid of fear only by changing it to fear of being distant from the Creator. Being free of fear-in bestowal. The 10 is felt by the Light, being similar to Him. Being equal= complementing
I am an egoist, thinking only of myself. It’s hard to think of US. The #Torah speaks of similarity to the Creator (Adam=similar), achieved via special unity in a group of 10. Precisely unity shapes the image of Adam (soul, similar to the Creator). The Torah speaks of the ten.
To read the #Torah correctly means to imagine not this world to oneself, but the little desires separated from one another by the ego. They are called names, surrounded by nature—inanimate, vegetative and animal desires. #Spiritualwork_ML
When a problem arises, quickly determine that it appeared btwn you and the Creator. And cling to the Creator, like a child, searching for the solution to the problem (new ego Reshimot) in Him. Then realize that it’s not a problem, but a means to compel you to adhere to Him.
#Spiritualwork_ML: If I relate to the friends in the group as the Creator, and they toward me, by Mutual Guarantee, you will begin to sense Him addressing you, manifesting in the world. Concealments will vanish, He’ll be revealed in all. Only man & the Creator remain, in unity
The path of correcting desires to equivalence with the Creator is clear. The desire to understand the #Torah as His work (point in the heart) is given to few. Picturing the Torah stories as a correction of one’s desires is only possible by a group effort to reveal the world.
#Kabbalistic_term: He who overcomes the ego=man. He who submits to the ego=woman. Regardless of #gender. The upper world is revealed as you build it within. All the problems vanish if you accept the Creator’s governance as perfect. I exist in full equivalence to Perfection.
But today the #world is recognizing the ego, lies, purposelessness. The need for change will appear as the chance to escape catastrophe. Thus the prohibition is lifted in our time, revealing the obligation to reveal Kabbalah—the means of correcting self and the world.
As the wisdom of #Kabbalah became revealed, the world would rewrite it into forms clear for the ego. Thus from the wisdom of Kabbalah arose religions, mysticisms, philosophies, sciences. Everything stems from Kabbalah, for it is the science of the essence of nature and the world.

Jesse Bogner: wisdom from Dr. Michael @laitman. words to live by. sadly, most people aren’t smart enough to balance contradictory ideas and forces.
If Kabbalists simply tried to erase those disturbances as ordinary people do, they would remain in “faith below reason.” But they gain knowledge against the faith, and build the faith over the contradictions, over the desires of the body. That is why they can understand things that are beyond our conception.
In other words, the spiritual world opens before them, because they acquire the screen with “faith above reason.”
We essentially allowed Logan’s generation to pick up their examples, role models and values from a media culture that’s extremely saturated with violence, and now we are letting them be the role models for today’s kids. #Logan

Spiritual genes are constantly rising in us, demanding advancement. When spiritual genes begin demanding their actualization, we’ll see that we exist in evil & lies. And then we’ll desire to change the present state to a new one… #Education #socialmedia #Motivation #Society_ML

The revelation of the laws “None else besides the Creator” & “Good that does good” happens not in us, but btwn us, in a group of Kabbalists, in the aspiration to establish “Love your neighbor as yourself” over the growing ego—a consequence of the Soul’s shattering.
#Law_of_the_upper_world is “None else besides Him, good that does god” can only be revealed in a group of 10. The revelation begins with the state of Embryo—I practically annul myself before the group, like to the Creator. Thus I cleave to the Upper one under any circumstances.
#The_path_above: If you feel a descent, it means the Creator drew closer to you, and so your differences from Him are revealed, for you to correct differences to similarities. Hence, rejoice in the descents, and ask for correction in joy! Thus a Kabbalist differs from a layman.
#Spiritual_work_ML. The Creator cannot be one’s personal teacher. It’s our ego that wants to acquire Him. But only to the extent that I bond with the group, when I “enter it,” annul myself in it, I discover the Creator’s presence at the center of the group’s unity.
At every moment it’s important to see that you received from Above everything you need to achieve the best possible future! #MotivationalQuotes #success #future
5. So, we must try to attain unity in the group until there’s: a) relative desire for it, b) realization that attaining it is impossible with our own strength and qualities, c) realization that it’s only possible in the Creator’s quality of bestowal, with His help, d) request…
4. #Spiritual_degree. Upon receiving the spiritual quality of love/bestowal, in which the Creator is revealed, the 10 attains this state—the 1st spiritual degree (1/125). It is filled with the upper light—the Creator’s revelation—and senses a new world, eternal and perfect.
3. #Prayer. The desire to change arises if the group (10) aspires to unite above personal egos into one will to bestow. Such an aspiration is called a prayer (MAN) to the Creator. If the prayer is ripe, it instantly draws an answer to the 10 from above (MAD, means of connection).
#Spiritualwork_ML. Sensation occurs in the contrast of light/dark in thoughts, feelings. Hence, we must comprise contrasting qualities. Perfection is attained from its absence. We already have the ego, but not Altruism! Our world is given to reveal perfection above the ego.
2. #Help_from_above. The upper light triggers the desire 2 change. It arises in the group (10, Minyan) in exertions to unite above the ego into one desire. Exertions lead to a realization that uniting with one’s strength is impossible, and only the higher force (Torah) can help.
1. #Meaning_of_life is 2 reveal Creator based on the law of equivalence, i.e. quality of bestowal a la Creator. But our nature is the will to receive (ego). Bestowal is Creator’s quality. Changing reception (ego) to bestowal is only possible thru the Creator (upper light, Torah).
#Spiritualwork_ML with a spiritual disturbance? Rise above it at once, ignoring the disturbance itself. Regard a disturbance as a springboard that hurls you upward, sent to you on purpose. It seems a disturbance psychologically, but it isn’t—it’s a means for ascent!
#Know yourself. To relate to yourself & others objectively, I propose organizing systematic, regulated “quarrels,” during which, under prearranged conditions, you can unload on your partner. And then, keeping the same control, return to the good state. It helps!
#Reward & punishment in an egoistic perception of the world are opposite to those engaged in spiritual ascent. Those who wish to escape the ego take criticism as a gift—an opportunity to ascend spiritually—and thus turn punishment to reward.
Old Jewish #joke: “I don’t like Pavarotti!” “You seen him perform?” “No, Rabinowitz sang it over the phone.” It’s funny to see critics of Kabbalah, who don’t know the subject & haven’t attained the Creator. I get it: it feels good to bark & show allegiance to the “Jewish KGB.”
Creator’s #revelation is a sequence of internal states that one struggles but connects to the Creator. The biggest mistake is thinking that things come not from Him, but from our world, behind which He’s concealed. By connecting everything to the Creator, I gradually reveal Him.

Why Calling Lorde a ‘Bigot’ Won’t Earn Israel Any PR Points… and What Will
“Instead of trying to tell those who resent Israel that they are wrong, we should first explain to ourselves where these sentiments truly come from.” @BINAlerts BrakingIsraelNews #lorde #israel
Besides corporeal, Torah/Commandments exist on a higher level. It is said: I have created #Evil (ego) & the Torah for its Light (force) to correct Evil to Good, similar to Creator (love), bring everyone to the Torah’s main law: Love your neighbor. This is actualized from hatred.
Controlling one’s #spiritual life means to strengthen the connection between people in the group, step by step, drawing the surrounding light (the Torah), until the Upper Force (the Creator) begins to reveal between them.
Nature’s Program: to create and develop man to the Creator’s level. We’re entering the final stage of our development. The universal #crisis will force us to cease development in our world and transition to developing an anti-egoistic connection on the level of the Upper World.
One receives an aspiration for higher knowledge, Creator’s revelation. But it hinges on being similar to Creator, quality of love/bestowal. If one doesn’t want to exert, one makes up excuses for leaving Kabbalah, as he must justify himself for abandoning the path to the Creator!
Rabbi Nachman: Where scientists’ research ends, Kabbalists’ research begins. Baal HaSulam: The spiritual doesn’t pertain to corporeal sciences or philosophy, for they do not attain or sense it. Hence, we need only the Kabbalists’ #knowledge.
Correction of the #soul: if one aspires to unity but discovers that he is unable to unite, the ego won’t let him, the impossibility of achieving unity/love/bestowal is revealed to him. This sensation of the soul’s breaking, the record of the breaking, is called RESHIMO.
Our #world is false, illusory, appearing as physical bodies instead of souls (intentions). But only the intentions exist. To the extent they’re similar to the Creator, intention to unite into the common creation, Adam, we sense Him. The world of intentions is the Upper World.

“Holiday” is a luminescence of the upper world. The Hebrew for holiday – Hag – stems from the word “arrow” (Mahog) and “circle” (Hug). Unlike our world, the spiritual is devoid of time-space-motion, has only descents & ascents in love & bestowal. The Upper Light determines dates
Chafetz Chaim: Creation is loved by the Creator when ppl r united without envy or enmity, each wants good 4 others. Then the Creator is pleased with his actions. Thus “Love your neighbor, I am the Creator” is actualized. If you love another as yourself the Creator is in you both
Dear friends. I wish you all a Happy New Year, to reveal the Creator in our common unity, for everyone to attain the meaning of life in health and in peace.
Vilna Gaon: You begin studying #Torah from its secret part, SOD, Torah of the world of Assiya where the Creator is fully concealed. Then you study the revealed Torah, REMEZ (world of Yetzira) etc. until Torah of the world Atzilut, PSHAT, for it is free of Creator’s concealment.
A Kabbalist’s joy is the chance to fill others & through them, the Creator. I cannot bestow to/receive from Him directly. Joy is when you give yourself to the group & in it discover the connection to Creator. Together, you-group-Creator meet in the group (Shechinah). #kabbalah
#Israel is founding an organization to clarify Israel’s actions. It’s an old, naive notion. Kabbalah says that hatred toward Jews is natural, and will only change when the Jews show an example of unity for the world to follow. This is their historic mission.

#Kabbalah is a method of correcting bonds between a) people & b) #souls into a unified form—ADAM. Bonds on the level of ppl in our world r to overcome the crisis. Bonds on the level of souls in the spiritual world r to reveal the Creator. But both levels pursue one goal—unity.
