Question: What is The Ark of the Covenant?

Answer: The Ark of the Covenant (Aron Kodesh) is the place where the main desire of all people is placed, where they gather into one single desire.

Although it consists of a huge number of different desires, they all unite above them, and such union gives rise to the opportunity to be connected with the Creator.

That is, it is the most important spiritual force of the people, its central point.

Question: What does “man shoes” mean from the point of view of Kabbalah?

Answer: Shoes are like a protective shield, which should be at the last degree of human desire. Usually if a person is standing on holy ground or in a special place, then shoes are removed. This signifies that he is corrected and there is nothing in the whole set of his desires that wasn’t corrected.

And when he has egoistic desires, they all accumulate in his lowest degree, in his legs. Then he must put on shoes so as not to come into contact with the holy land.

If the Torah says that the order “take off your shoes” comes, it means that you have to check yourself and correct yourself at your lowest, heaviest degree. In other words, you are checking whether this degree matches the holy land.

Question: In the book of Prophets (chapter “Joshua Ben Nun”) it is said that the Creator performs miracles: “And I will work miracles, and everyone will see it.” What should I feel while reading these lines?

Answer: The person writing this book, for example, Joshua himself, sees altruistic actions upon him, in him, and around him, above the egoistic nature (inanimate, vegetative, animate, and human). These actions can be called miracles.

Question: Joshua is the desire that exists in me?

Answer: If it is so manifested in a person, then he will feel what is written in the book.

Question: When the waters of the Jordan stop is it a miracle?

Answer: Yes. Everything that is against the egoistic nature of man is perceived by him as a miracle. When some egoistic thought and its flow stops, then something higher than this nature arises. This is absolutely normal in the spiritual world, but in the egoistic world, it is a miracle because it cannot be in it. Such a phenomenon arises only when we attain the upper world.

Question: What does it mean “they ate of the grain of the land”?

Answer: The desire that you correct becomes a fruit-bearing desire. It gives you the opportunity to exist.

You receive the light from the Creator. Those parts of the light that enter into your desire, fulfill, correct, and develop it are called “the grain of the land of Israel.”

Israel means “straight to the Creator.” In this way, a person establishes a connection between himself and the Creator.

Question: What are miracles and why are they performed?

Answer: There are no miracles! There are no miracles in the world.

Question: Then what is presented in the Torah as miracles from above? For example: the Creator helping the Israelites, etc.

Answer: This allegorically describes the state of people who understand the Creator and His control of the world. For a person who attains this, everything is a miracle because he relates everything to the Creator.

Question: Why does the Creator do those miracles?

Answer: It is simply that all actions the Creator performs in nature are aimed at raising a person to His level, at teaching him. We constantly live in the Creator and we are always in His actions. The whole world is the actions of the Creator. And therefore, everything is a miracle.

Or you can say the opposite, that there are no miracles. We are in a system ruled by the Creator. Absolutely, completely, in everything! It depends on how we perceive this system. It all depends on the level a person is at, on his development.

And when it writes: “The Creator performed a miracle,” it means something unusual, not something that happens every day according to the program of creation.

Question: Why is the Creator doing this? Do people need proof?

Answer: This is necessary in order to shake a person, raise him to the next level of awareness, action, etc.

Comment: Still, a person is weak, he needs miracles.

My Response: No. He perceives revelation of the Creator in this way as kind of a reward, a connection with the Creator. But, in principle since we do not foresee these actions in advance, they are for us something extraordinary—a miracle.

Question: What does “to hear” and “to see” mean in Kabbalah?

Answer: “To hear” is the level of Bina, “to see” is the level of Hochma.

If I am at the level of Bina, then I hear what the Creator tells me. And if I am at the level of Hochma, then I see my contact with the Creator, and this is already a huge level.

Question: What does the “sound of the horn” mean, from which the walls of Jericho fall?

Answer: This is a very large stage of mercy that destroys egoistic protection.

Question: What is MAN?

Answer: MAN is what a person turns to the Creator with, but not something, as it were, that falls from above. From the Kabbalistic point of view, MAN is considered the opportunity to turn to the Creator. But this is a more serious, sane interpretation.

And when it is said that MAN falls from above, it means that a person who appeals to the Creator receives an answer from Him. This answer manages everything in a person and corrects him to the level where he begins to receive another contact with the Creator.

Question: What does the land of Israel mean?

Answer: The land of Israel in Hebrew is “Eretz Yisrael.”  Eretz, from the word “desire” (Ratzon). That is, the concept of land has nothing to do with soil or the land on which we stand; it means “desire.”

Israel (Isra-El) is Yashar-El, aspiring toward the Creator.

Therefore, the desire of any person or group of people striving toward the Creator, toward similarity and connection with Him, is called the desire directed toward Him, or Eretz Yisrael.

Question: The Torah and other sources use the word “stone” very often: stones taken from the River Jordan, stones from which the altar is built, stones placed on graves. What is it about?

Answer: Stones are unchanging objects of nature. A stone is considered something that does not change, something that is unshakable.

From the perspective of Kabbalah, stones are parts of Malchut that a person works with; he either builds buildings with them, shoots them from a sling, and so on.

Comment: It is written in the Torah that the Creator threw stones at their enemies and thereby helped the Israelites. You explained it as a burdening of desires.

My Response: This is also true. However, a stone itself is something unshakable, a part of Malchut.

Stone (Even) comes from the word “Havana,” understanding. If we are talking about the part of Malchut ascending to Bina, then we are talking about understanding when we already realize which part it is.

But if we are talking about burdening, then by stone we mean addition of desires, addition of egoism.

Question: Who are the Levites?

Answer: Levites, as a rule, are teachers, although not only. Among them were tax collectors, and all those who help them are administrators.

Question: What are the Levites in me?

Answer: These are the forces that help you collect all your thoughts, desires, intentions, motives, knowledge, and slowly direct all of them to the intention for the sake of the Creator in all your actions.

Question: Slowly—is this the actual study?

Answer: Yes, gradual learning from easy to difficult. Levites live among the people and teach them. In general, they have many different functions.

Question: What is the Cohen in me?

Answer: The Cohen in me is a point of connection with the Creator. The Levites are those who help me understand how through indirect action I can be connected with the Creator.
