Beyond a certain point there is no return. This point has to be reached. (Franz Kafka)

Question: What do you think about that?

Answer: If there is no return, how can you not make a decision? Such solutions are the most rational, although they seem terrible.

Question: Does it mean that if you have made some decision and there is no return, then you have to keep going and that’s it?

Answer: Of course! The main thing is not to leave yourself hanging in the air.

Question: Not to think for a long time?

Answer: No. Otherwise it leads to depression, suicide, or something like that. These pauses should be shortened and the decision should be made sharply and clearly.

Question: When does a person have a feeling that there is no return? Maybe he is just making it all up? Or is it given to a person on purpose?

Answer: He should check himself.

Question: Are you saying that he should still do an analysis?

Answer: Of course. He should check himself often. Kabbalah says that we should not measure once and then start cutting. We need to keep trying again and again, constantly checking the system we are in: Can I trust it? Do I conform to this system? How can I change myself to adapt to it?

Eventually, I begin to see more and more that I am inside a harmonious and perfect system of the universe, which is governed by some single law, and I exist inside this sphere.

Question: Sometimes a question arises in you and even without asking it after a while you find the answer to it. How can you explain this phenomenon?

Answer: If a question has really taken shape in you, then there is definitely an answer to it. The light that gave birth to the question in you will surely descend and fill it with an answer.

The question is Hisaron, desire, emptiness created by the same light that then fills it. Thus you get both the question and the answer.

Prophets, Book of Joshua, 24:11: And you crossed the Jordan and came to Jericho; and the inhabitants of Jericho fought against you, the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Girgashites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites; and I delivered them into your hand.

The seven nations, enumerated by the Creator, symbolize seven properties in man, where the clarification between egoism and altruism takes place. These are the so-called seven Sefirot of Zeir Anpin, which must be purified to begin receiving for the sake of bestowal, and by this move forward.

Bestowal for the sake of bestowal is a property of Bina. Receiving for the sake of bestowal is the property of Keter (crown).

It is necessary to pass through these seven nations, that is, the seven Sefirot of Zeir Anpin, in order to ascend to Bina. This is what they are correcting.

On the spiritual path, we always strive to come close to a state we do not know and we do not yet feel. We have no data for it, no Reshimot.

When the worlds descended from top to bottom, they had Reshimot, and all Partzufim and degrees descended in sequence, according to these data. But when we go from bottom-up, we do not know where we are going.

Therefore, we need to annul and connect with our friends in order to raise a prayer and attract the reflected light, which will bring us to a new state. We do not build the steps ourselves. We only need to know how to annul ourselves with respect to the next step, and then it will clothe on us.

When everything seems to be going against you, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it. (Henry Ford)

All our movement is always against the wind, not by going along with the wind because by this you do not do anything, you do not exist, you are just carried along. Whereas, going against it, in a reasonable and rational way, as far as possible but against it helps you to rise.

Question: Is it when you feel you have resistance, that you have an inner challenge, that you have to go there, or are you still looking for a way around it?

Answer: No, I am not looking for a way around. And I am not looking for an opportunity to fight windmills either.

Question: What do you do? Are you analyzing why or how it came?

Answer: I analyze myself according to the program and purpose of creation. If necessary, I take only it into account, the purpose of creation, and try to take another step toward it every time.

Question: So, are you always starting from the end point?

Answer: Always!

Question: What is that for you, the end point?

Answer: It is the point where everyone will have to correct themselves, unite, and see the entire world from end to end.

Question: Is an absolutely united humanity the end point?

Answer: Yes. Inside one single nature.

At each step, before each correction, we must first of all feel our deficiency. We all emanate from the sin of Adam HaRishon, from the shattering. As if we were driving a car and it suddenly fell to pieces; the wheels and steering wheel fall off, the engine breaks down. Not only do they break down, it fell apart into pieces. Instead of a car, you end up with a heap of rubble.

And now we need to check every piece and find out how to assemble them back together. So, we check every part with the intention to bestow, that is, whether it is ready to connect with other parts to become an operating car again. From the parts that are ready for it, we begin to assemble the car, checking what fits and what does not, and how it can all be assembled. This is our practical work.

Comment: It is said in the book Prophets that Joshua, completing his mission, bequeaths to the people not to miss a single word of all the good words of the Creator and not to break the covenant to serve Him, otherwise they will disappear from this land that God gave them.

These instructions and threats are repeated there all the time.

My Response: These are not threats, but a condition, the disclosure of the formula, that if you do this, you will come to a good state, and if not, then to the opposite. This is a law of nature, and this is how it works at every level, one against the other.

Question: There is always an element of suffering in your explanations. And if we don’t begin to correct ourselves, then one way or another they will intensify?

Answer: It is required. We need to talk about this. By making corrections at the spiritual level, we will stop feeling suffering at the animal level.

Question: Do you think that a person should be constantly frightened?

Answer: You don’t need to scare them! You just need to reveal it! Since he is no longer a child, but an adult, he needs to be shown the correct picture of nature and society.

Question: Can he move if pushed from behind by a stimulus and to pull forward with a small illumination?

Answer: Yes, both at the same time. Only by two forces.

This movement is very simple. The only problem is its implementation. We will move and hope that we will implement it. In our time, the science of Kabbalah itself is revealed by us and in us. And then whoever wants to do it correctly, everything will be fine with him.

My new article on Linkedin “La Palma – A Reflection of Our Toxic Relationships”

The Cumbre Vieja volcanic ridge on the Spanish island of La Palma, part of the Canary Islands, located some 70 miles off the coast of Morocco, in northwest Africa, has been spewing lava since the 19th of September. The eruption has now continued for more than 50 days with no signs of abating. Already, it has destroyed more than 2,600 buildings, cut the coastal highway, and formed a new peninsula. The lava has also destroyed the town of Todoque, and the fuming flow has reached the town of La Laguna. This eruption has already caused more damage than any eruption on La Palma since records began, and it shows no sign of fading. There is a way to stop eruptions, or at least mitigate them significantly, and it has nothing to do with how we treat the earth, and everything to do with how we treat each other.

Earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, hurricanes, floods, and gigantic fires have all been growing more frequent and intense over the past several decades. But the forces that set them off are not related to the phenomena themselves, but to the human species, which intensifies them and causes them to erupt more frequently and fervently.

Earth’s ecosystem is built like a pyramid. Its base is the inanimate level, the land masses and oceans that cover the planet. The next level is the flora, the plants that cover the earth, followed by the fauna, the animal kingdom, and at the top of the pyramid is humankind.

The forces that govern the planet stretch from the top down. Like a hurricane, the eye of the storm is the least turbulent, but generates the mighty winds and torrents that surround it and destroy everything they touch. We are the eye of the storm. Our subtle but sinister intentions toward each other create the mayhem unfolding around us. It is therefore we, and only we who can calm the storm, for its engine is within us. Until we switch it off, the planet will keep burning.

Nature is not only trees, animals, clouds, the earth, and the universe. Nature is first and foremost a force that fills all of reality. We exist within it and influence it through our conduct. When we, the top of the pyramid, conduct ourselves positively, we have a positive influence on all of nature. When we conduct ourselves negatively, this is the influence we have on everything.

The pyramid-like structure of nature permeates all levels, including our thoughts and intentions. Therefore, when we spoil our intentions toward each other, the blight spreads downward like a cancer sending out its malignant metastases. If we want a calmer Earth and a kinder climate, we needn’t focus on carbon emissions or plastic waste. These will be fixed when we fix the top of the pyramid, the eye of the storm, namely our negative relation toward each other.
