Opinion: (Jose Manuel Barroso, European Commission President): “A Greek default would have unforeseeable consequences and cause the euro zone crisis to spread, European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso was quoted as saying in mass-selling Bild daily.

“‘If we give up on Greece, there is a big danger that the crisis will spread to other countries,’ Barroso told Bild in an interview to be published on Monday, echoing comments of German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

“Barroso noted the euro zone had no experience with the possible bankruptcy of a member state.

“Barroso added that Europe needed to correct the ‘orgy of consumption’ that had taken place in some countries due to the introduction of a strong common currency with low interest rates.”

Opinion (Alex Jones, an American talk radio host): “The international banking cartel is using Obama and the US military to start World War III.

“The controllers of the New World Order believe they can achieve their one world government by destabilizing every country in the Middle East and Northern Africa and draw Russia and China into crisis to create a world-wide catastrophe. Once this event occurs, and the world is brought to the brink of total obliteration, the global banking cartel plans to move in with their final phase: a one world government and eugenics agenda.

“We are right now in the beginning stages of World War III. If this situation escalates, it can result in the worst world war that mankind has ever suffered.”

My Comment: My only comment is that we have to disseminate rapidly the knowledge about the true cause of the crisis, about nature’s design and goal of our development, and about the method of advancing along this path. It should become known to the masses, and then it will be clear to everybody, even to the President’s advisers.

In the News (from The Financial Times): “From Mr George Soros and 95 others: Sir, the euro crisis needs a solution, now. The current measures are too little and too late and are precipitating global financial turmoil. The euro is far from perfect, as this crisis has revealed. But the answer is to fix its faults rather than allowing it to undermine and perhaps destroy the global financial system.

“We, concerned Europeans, call upon the governments of the eurozone to agree in principle on the need for a legally binding agreement that would: 1) establish a common treasury that can raise funds for the eurozone as a whole and ensure that member states adhere to fiscal discipline; 2) reinforce common supervision, regulation and deposit insurance within the eurozone; and 3) develop a strategy that will produce both economic convergence and growth because the debt problem cannot be solved without growth.”

My Comment: None of these proposals can be realized in practice because they are based on the previous state of man and society: “an individualist and egoist among his own kind.” And today it is already “an individualist and egoist in the network of mutual guarantee.”

If we do not take into account that the world has become globally dependent and integrally connected, not by our economic and industrial trade ties, but within itself, due to its development, we won’t succeed in anything and will always shoot off target. When solving any personal and common problems, we have to take into account the new conditions and our interdependence.

Opinion: (Mohamed A. El-Erian, Pacific Investment Management Co.): “Pacific Investment Management Co.’s Mohamed A. El-Erian said organizations such as the International Monetary Fund need to act with European banks at risk of being engulfed in the region’s sovereign-debt crisis.

“‘We’re getting close to a full-blown banking crisis in Europe’ … ‘We are in a synchronized global slowdown. There’s very little confidence in economic policy making both in Europe and the U.S.'”

My Comment: Although the participants of the IMF and the World Bank meetings are already disappointed by their own abilities, they do not see any other options. What’s needed for them to hear us? I think it’s the voice of the people. When the available funds for solving the crisis run out, protests will begin in the developed countries of Europe and the United States. The revolution will take place in people’s mind: They will understand that they face the problem “above themselves,” which they cannot solve, and then they will hear the voice of the Mutual Guarantee movement.

In the News (from CBS News): “Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain accused anti-Wall Street protesters of playing the ‘victim card’ – and suggested that those participating in protests nationwide against corporate greed and a lack of jobs are merely doing so out of ‘jealousy.’

“Cain argued that the recent protests against the financial sector were ‘anti-American,’ and that they were meant to be ‘a distraction’ from the Obama administration’s ‘failed policies.’

“‘The free market system and capitalism are two of the things that have allowed this nation and this economy to become the biggest in the world,’ he added. ‘Even though we have our challenges, I believe that the protests are more anti-capitalism and anti-free market than anything else.’

“Fellow GOP presidential hopeful Newt Gingrich… pointed to the protests as an example of ‘class warfare’ waged by the president against the wealthy.

“The former House Speaker blamed a recent ‘hostility to free enterprise’ on America’s educational system. …  ‘And I regard the Wall Street protesters as a natural outcome of a bad education system teaching them really dumb ideas.’”

In the News (From Vedomosti.ru): “Analysts talk of a global revolutionary wave. Riots have swept not only Greece, which threatens to default, but more affluent countries. In the USA, the protests have spread to many cities. Online communities for the organization of the actions emerged in dozens of cities. Activists from Canada and Australia are joining the protest.

“Calgary, Vancouver, Ottawa, Toronto, and Montreal are going to join the 99 percent of people who are struggling for survival, while 1 percent of the wealthy continue to prosper. …Protests are held under the new scheme: They do not have organizers; participants learn about the place and time of a protest action through social networks or through the website occupytogether.org.

“The crisis inevitably leads to the escalation of protest movements, but the feature of the current protests is their re-export. It is the first global wave of revolution: The protests began in Western Europe and the USA, have spread to the periphery, the Arab countries, but now are returning. Today’s protests could become a trigger for change.”

My Comment: Humanity is becoming a single community, and its inner connections guarantee the transfer of desires and thoughts among all people, up to full unification into a single organism. This is the law of evolution of human society. The one who understands this trend of nature and goes along with it will win. Opponents of this natural process will only lose.

If governments do not understand this, people will suffer, but the change will still happen. It is better not to resist, but to study nature, as Kabbalah suggests, to study the laws of mutual guarantee (Arvut), of new relationships of humanity as one body, and follow them. Otherwise, protests will force to do this but by bloody methods because the laws of nature are relentless.

There are disorders taking place everywhere, including menacing cases that become expressed spontaneously and uncontrollably, and no one can predict the outcome of what is happening. Just like the crisis itself, its waves are rolling over everyone and no one is left in peace. The rich are forced to help the poor, while the poor manipulate the rich’s dependence on them….

Every economist in the world has his own opinion about the reasons for the economic crisis that is taking place. But we are forgetting that the crisis is not economic, but pertains to all of civilization: There is not one area of human activity that is not undergoing a crisis.

The crisis is happening in all of the social systems we have created: healthcare, public assistance, marriage and family, education and upbringing…. Undoubtedly, everyone started paying attention to the crisis when it became being expressed in the economic and financial realm because our survival depends on this directly. But to reveal its causes, we have to examine it as a whole, as a crisis of civilization.

The reason for the crisis is just one thing: every day, the world is becoming more interconnected and interdependent from within, by nature, and therefore, every day it is becoming more and more opposite to the external connections and culture that we have imposed on it in the form of separate countries, societies, opposing systems, and so forth. Precisely the difference between the world’s unity, which grows bigger every day, and the culture of separation we have created, is the crisis that is growing worse.

We are incapable of stopping the expression of the world’s inner globality and integrality. This is coming from its original nature, which we are unable to influence.

We also cannot observe the constantly growing opposition between the world’s inner structure, where its unity is being revealed, and the external one, humanity, where its divisions and contradictions are being expressed. This is evoking a multifaceted crisis inside of us.

The only solution to the problem of the developing crisis, our growing opposition to nature, lies in all of humanity’s gradual attainment of unity, mutual guarantee, and balance between humanity and nature, reasonable consumption. However, this contradicts our egoistic nature and therefore it is possible only when the environment exerts a wholesome, positive influence on every person.

For that, it is necessary to form a new social, personal consciousness that can be attained through universal global education and upbringing about the global, integral connection among all people that is being expressed in the world. To achieve this, every country has to decide to form an environment around its society, a setting for educational influence.

Creating a mass media system that involves scientists and experts who explain the new, global world, its new social laws, the need to follow them for the sake of survival, is the educational part. Creating large virtual and non-virtual connections that will pull people in, give them an example of unification and joy in it, is the part of upbringing.

Undoubtedly, by taking the first steps in this direction, we will immediately and clearly feel the crisis receding.

Question: People agree with the idea of mutual guarantee, but they don’t know what to do with it. People accept our explanations in good will, but what next?

Answer: This is enough. First you give a person an explanation of the situation with the integral interconnection, informing him of the fact that in our global world it is inadmissible to give in to protectionism and isolationism. “It’s none of my business” is no longer a viable excuse. We are all interconnected like cogwheels whether we want it or not and there is no clutch pedal that could separate us from one another. There is no other way to go: We simply have to take one another into consideration, to understand the essence of mutual unification and the single human system. Only by mastering its laws will we be able to decide what we should do together from here on.

In the past we were separate and I was able to take anything I wanted from you for my own needs. But now, when we are welded together, I do not take away yet another “sack” from you, but simply move it around from one place to another in the common warehouse. And eventually, this will harm me.

We still don’t realize the meaning of “a single system.” If you don’t take all of its parts into consideration, then you cannot act. The world today is demonstrating the general interconnection to us, and this is just the first, smallest, most proximate spiritual level. Without ascending to it, we won’t be able to fix anything in our lives. From one day to the next, the external pressure will grow, the screws will tighten more, and the conditions of this first level will advance clearer, more precise demands to us.

Eventually we will have to get to know the single system, understand it, include it inside ourselves, and adjust ourselves on the inside to its laws. Then we will suddenly see abundance everywhere. As soon as we attain unity, the abundance will come to light. It will become apparent that peace and order reign everywhere, and we have reached peace on the first spiritual degree.

After that the next degree becomes revealed, and we are again faced by disorder, injustice, chaos…. That is how we continually discover our non-conformity to the following level of ascent.

Question: Yesterday, on October 15th, an event was held in Tel Aviv called “Uniting for change in the world.” During one of the discussions an activist said that he is sorry about how weak the protestors are, “We won’t achieve anything because we let the authorities take apart our tent cities. We have to be more aggressive to be heard….”

Answer: This is the regular egoistic approach. We acted this way throughout all of history. But who said this is fair or just? That kind of struggle won’t lead to any results because any “accomplishment” will be achieved at someone’s expense. What’s required here is general social agreement, compensation via all-enveloping consideration.

In reality, all of the disorders, all the hatred and animosity, all demands of the social protest are intended for us to reveal the upper force. If people try to establish good relationships on the social plane, they will reveal nothing but evil. In the egoistic reality, there is no hope for peace. However, while they are inside of that reality, they cannot imagine or envision anything different.

This is why people are demanding to take money away from the rich. We already know the price of pretty words about fair distribution.

Therefore, we have to remember that we are dealing with “children” who do not understand the ways of the universe, are in no way connected to the forces operating in nature, and do not see the true, final goal. It’s as if I take my disobedient child by the hand and lead him in the right direction. On the way he shouts next to every fast food stand, “I want ice cream! I want potato chips!” So what should I do? I buy him an ice-cream and lead him further since otherwise he would remain in the same place and continue going wild pointlessly.

This depends on who organizes the correction. If we give the instigators freedom to act, their “correction” will lead to disorders and bloodshed, which might have unpredictable consequences, both in separate countries and in the whole world. Besides, they won’t attain what they desire because they are going against the goal of creation. Instead of correcting the interconnection between people, only hatred will become revealed in them, more and more. That means one way or another, we will have to explain the real state of affairs to the world.

As for those who “wave their fists in the air,” their rants will end with the first blow that misses. We were all young and hot-blooded once. Everyone, including the government, understands that at this age it’s necessary to let a person “go wild.” But nothing can be achieved that way.

In the News (from ynet.co.il): “There is a new generation of homeless people in Greece, Italy, France, and Britain: the middle class people affected by the crisis, who were dismissed due to budget cuts.

“‘I’ve never thought this could happen to me,’ said Petros Papadopoulos, 40, from Athens, a former chef who lost his job and then his home in 2010. ‘I later realized how thin the line is. It can happen to anyone. We are all potentially homeless.'”

My Comment: I have already written that the crisis will destroy a lot of “extra” professions because in the future society, which is in balance with nature, there are no professions and jobs except for those necessary for existence. All superfluousness is harmful, and therefore is deliberately annulled.

A person will receive everything necessary for normal existence, and the desire to fulfill oneself above the necessities, which we call egoism, will be satisfied by the feeling of connection of a single system. This will give us the sensation of eternal and harmonious fulfillment because initially (before its breaking), our egoism was created to be satisfied specifically in this form. So namely the middle class will lose their jobs….
