My Thoughts On Twitter 11/17/20

By annulling myself to the group, I receive the upper force from it, which influences and awakens me. I was below everyone, but now with the force received from the group, I influence everyone else, becoming like the Creator for them. First I received from the friends as Malchut, and now I bestow to them as Keter.

I am below and the friends are above. That is how we lift each other up, like mountain climbers tied together by a rope. I annul myself before the ten, trying to feel that I am smaller than everyone, and through that I receive forces. With these forces, received from the friends, I help them.

A person cannot rise from a descent on his own—but only if others set an example and awaken him. This will be the right ascent, not on account of egoism. A friend helps me rise, and I help the friend, meaning I work in the group where the forces of unity operate. This will be a spiritual action.

The Creator’s revelation comes from the lowest state, from the “dust,” as written: “You came from the dust, and to dust you shall return.” We always fall into the state of dust, losing all interest in spirituality, all desire and taste. And from this dust we must rise…. “A person shall help his friend”

The joy of a commandment, when I can perform an act against the will to enjoy, is greater. It may be a small achievement, but what matters most is that it will be done with regard to unity. All that I need is unity with the friends and the lesson: these are the two instruments for coming closer to the Creator.

The more difficult is the state, which is not felt in the ego as pleasant, the better it is. It means I do not have any ego-motivation in this action, and I operate against egoism. Then I really carry out the Creator’s instruction to come closer to Him despite resistance from my egoism.

A person fortunate enough to be in a ten that has reached revelation of the Creator, gives Him pleasure. The ten is a channel that conveys the Creator’s revelation to everyone. Friends in the ten want to connect to the Creator and pass His revelation on to all creatures.

We come to the lesson not in order to accumulate knowledge, but in order to attain new, additional unity. The lesson, “Shiur” means “extent”—the extent to which we can connect with each other even stronger.

As we develop, we become more differentiated, each one comprised of his “I” and the Creator—in contradiction to himself. Thus the future holds divisions of everyone and each person—and the means of conciliation is not for one person to suppress another, but for each one to come out of his own nature, to freedom from it…

My Thoughts On Twitter 11/14/20

Dr Michael Laitman Twitter

In the body, every part takes care of everyone else—this is called love. For us, love is taking pleasure in fulfilling ourselves.

When we see that we don’t have the truth, but it is vitally necessary—that is when we will reach the truth. When we understand that no compromises are possible, we will then have nothing left but to rise above the schism in society, above the two forces of nature to the third force—faith above reason. It combines both forces and this is the Creator.

Without revealing the Creator in our world, we will not reach a sense of peace. A split into two opposing halves who hate each other will grow worse until degenerating to a world war… Then the world will begin history anew, in order to attain correction…

Truth can be ascertained with the full correction. In the meantime, we still haven’t attained faith above reason.
There will be no agreement in the world since only the principle of truth allows us to attain true balance…

Instead of truth, people use: mercy, justice and peace. The truth is concealed, we hide it. No one wants to see the truth, how much I owe everyone to ensure the integral system of the common soul, Adam HaRishon. This will obligate me to work only for the benefit of others. No one agrees to this.

No one feels where the real truth is. Each one thinks he is right, but there is no evidence that this is the truth, which is the same for everyone. As soon as we come closer to truth, we engage in extreme conflict with one another. No one wants to give up their own truth, ego, their opinion

It’s very difficult to manage the world by the category of truth since we are ruled by egoism, which prevents us from organizing society in a true form. We don’t know how to estimate every person’s forces, desires, aspirations—we cannot be guided by truth even though that would be best of all.

Dr Michael Laitman Twitter

We all have to assess what is happening as a result of our state in relation to correction. The #coronavirus is a result of our uncorrected state in relation to nature’s demands.

There are two conditions: each one bestows everything he has, using all his abilities for the common unity. We complete one another, like ants in an ant-hill. Revelation of truth turns the universe into a sphere: everyone becomes included in each other—and the force of bestowal, perfection is revealed inside them.

We must reach unity between us and the Creator, reveal the force of unity, so each one will be ready to bestow with all of one’s heart and soul. That is how we will attain the degree of truth. We won’t count who did more and who did less—each one will bestow 100% and then truth will reign.

It’s as if we want to make up for what the Creator has done incorrectly. The Creator seems to have set up injustice in the world—we see that the world was corrupted from the beginning. We are trying to perform correction from outside, outside of man, instead of correcting him on the inside. This is the whole problem.

My Thoughts On Twitter 11/9/20

Dr Michael Laitman Twitter

As a result of unity, new light comes from above and fills me. I feel that I have made a breakthrough into a new state, onto a new degree and have advanced forward. “And there was evening, and there was morning—one day.” The day begins with darkness. First there will be evening and only then will the morning come, as one day.

If there is no light in the present and no light for the future—this is a sign of transitioning to the next degree, when I am facing a new state, which always starts with a complete zero. One must close one’s eyes and become more invested in the group, think only about unity, and nothing else.

There is just one opportunity: to reveal the upper force, which will connect the two camps together. Revelation of the upper force and everyone’s unity—this is our work, as Kabbalists. This will soon be clear and we have to be ready for it. The world will want it, will come and ask for it.

The whole world will divide into the right and left. “Israel” will be responsible for billions on one side and billions on the other side not being able to connect with each other. We have to learn the middle line, which is established by the upper force: “He who makes peace in the heavens will make peace between us.”

There is no middle line—it will come from above. That is how the world and nature are built. Kabbalistic groups that work on coming closer to the upper force, to the goal of creation—Israel, those aimed “straight at the Creator,” will be in the center of the world and of everyone’s attention. They must provide a connection between the left and right lines.

Nature does not help people to unite, but on the contrary, it will divide them into two equal camps, as we are now seeing in the USA. Society has split down the middle, with millions of people on one side, and millions on the other.
A handful of people tip the scale to decide who becomes the American President.

The ego grows in the course of its development—the discrepancy between the right and left does not get smoothed out. They grow further apart from each other, the conflict and arguments between them increase. This is clearly expressed in America the left and right parties cannot come to a common denominator. This breakage exists even within families.

Everywhere, as soon as a problem appears, we can enter an “ark,” meaning the degree of Bina, and find refuge there. No one will be able to harm us, since the degree of Bina is like a baby in the mother’s womb, protected from all sides. It is the safest place.

In the ark, we can take refuge together with all our egoistic desires: still, vegetative, animate, and human, closing ourselves inside the ark to be in the common unity. Even if each one wants to devour the other, the ark acts upon us with its force of bestowal.
In this way, we will safely get through the “flood.”
#COVID19

The #coronavirus is a flood that incites us to build an ark upon the face of the earth—relationships that envelop and protect us. Each one treats others kindly, not trying to devour them. Everyone enters one ark and they understand that they mustn’t harm one another. #kindness

Dr Michael Laitman Twitter

Everything begins with each person thinking not about himself, but about his neighbor, about everyone, and thus ascending to a higher degree. To exit oneself means to enter the Creator, for He exists above our egoistic thoughts and desires.
Faith above reason is the path of attainment of the next spiritual degree, higher and higher still.

We’re going to feel our true human powers, all that is hidden from us in the universe: black holes and dark matter, all the forces that acted before the world’s creation, and that have created it. We’re going to start delving into creation, and sensing where we are. This is no fantasy, but real science: Kabbalah.

“Everything shall be resolved in the thought.” Thus we will bring to balance all the forces of nature, which is presently deliberately muddling our life, like mixing a deck of cards. Everything depends solely on our desire on the human level, which is the highest level of this world.

If every person were to care for others instead of himself, we are going to transition from the path of suffering to the path of Torah, the path of light, ridding ourselves of the coronavirus and all other problems. If we start thinking about unity, everything in the world will automatically work out. We need only to correct our thoughts.

The Creator is the quality of love and bestowal. By fulfilling His desire, I arrange a communication system between myself and the Creator through the group, the ten, all humankind. I don’t think or ask for myself, but only for others: for them not to forget about or disconnect from the goal. I redirect my mind and my heart to them.

Faith means rising above one’s opinion to the Creator’s opinion. Our opinion is knowledge. Each degree begins with darkness, with what my nature demands, but I aspire toward the Creator’s opinion, and I must rise each time. I don’t think or do what I want, but I do as the Creator wishes.

The Creator prepares the creatures: He builds us up and breaks us down, and then again and again. He has built and shattered all the degrees, all the worlds, up to the world of infinity. He has prepared all the states, one opposite the other, so that man could live among them and rise above both, above good and evil.

Man must combine within himself two opposites: darkness and light, evil and goodness. The evil must appear before so that man would come to desire to disconnect from it, to rise above his nature. The desire to enjoy develops due to the light, by repeatedly connecting and disconnecting from it.

The Creator decided to create man with a great desire to enjoy, who would be opposite to Him, doesn’t agree with Him, resists Him and can even feel anger and hatred toward Him. All this must exist in our foundation, so that we could feel and understand the Creator, and unite with Him.

The spiritual world is revealed to the extent of faith above reason—i.e. when a person imagines egoism, knowledge, below the Creator’s will, faith. And tries to constantly operate by placing bestowal, connection with friends, above thoughts of himself. Think the way the Creator wishes, and you will start to feel Him…

There’s panic in the world because people do not understand how they should act. But the solution is simple: only come closer to one another, go against the egoism that distances everyone from everyone. And most importantly, not coming closer in actions—the pandemic is specifically halting them, but in thoughts—intentions. Then everything will be good!

They say that masks help not for avoiding getting infected yourself, but avoiding passing your germs to others—that is how nature unconsciously imposes the right relationships on us. Granted, they are unconscious and unaware, but this too is effective and will lead us to become aware of the reciprocity…
