Question: Despite the fact that we are constantly producing all kinds of medicines, why do new diseases appear all the time? Is there any solution here?

Answer: This will not be corrected until all of humanity is corrected.

After all, everything is built on earning more. What for? This question is not asked. This is a goal of society that is not judged at all. To earn more! This way I will be higher than others, more important than others, and stronger than others. What for, why, for what purpose? All this is no longer important. The main thing is that wealth is respected by society, and therefore, man chases after it.

For this purpose, millions of medicines are produced. Moreover, this is probably the largest consumption market in the world. There is a whole army of doctors, manufacturers, and advertisers who are constantly trying to fill us with all sorts of medicines. In general, we constantly poison ourselves.

I cannot imagine a quick solution to this problem except if we really dedicate ourselves to correcting the person. Then we will come to the point where we want to correct everything else. Our correction will have such an effect on the surrounding nature that we will be able to grow vegetables, fruit, produce meat, and everything we need in an unmodified form. They will not rot; there will be enough for everyone. But it will happen only when we take care of ourselves instead of chemicals.

Comment: But at the same time it is written that “A doctor is given the right to heal.”

My Response: There are no real doctors today! In practice, these are unhappy people who think that they help us.

But in fact, they deal with people who are completely poisoned and with whom it is no longer possible to do anything. They are trying to sell them some additional kinds of poison that would do something to them and somehow hold them together. This is how we live. Of course, one can object and say that 500 years ago people lived 30 to 40 years, and today they live 60, 70, 80 years and even more. This is true. But the fact is that here we face the question: “What for?”

People who come to the congress first of all invest in themselves. This is the only real contribution! Everything else burns out.

They come, pay, and are ready to participate in everything because they feel that everything else is worthless!

I remember when I started studying Kabbalah, I was told: “What are you doing? You are 30 years old! First, take a walk, earn money, and travel around the world! You have not been anywhere yet! Why are you burying yourself? And when you are close to 60, closer to retirement, you will start studying the future of the world.” I heard it often from people. “So young…” That’s it. What will you do?

Question: How does the accumulation process work? How does a person invest himself?

Answer: As a shareholder, one invests in a common sensor, and it becomes a part of him or her.

This is really a contribution to the most reliable bank! This is not Bank of America, but an eternal, perfect bank! How much effort you put into it, it is all yours!

Question: What does the first restriction mean?

Answer: The first restriction is an action when the desire to receive created by the Creator decides that it will receive pleasure not for its own sake, but only for the sake of the Creator.

Meaning, all the pleasure received from the Creator the creation will receive not in order to enjoy, although it was created in this way, but in order to feel how it gives to the Creator.

In other words, the light cannot enter the egoistic Kli. In the spiritual world we cannot enjoy for our own sake. And the fact that in our world we do it for ourselves, it is only in order to prepare us for a real spiritual sensation.

Therefore, it is impossible to use the connection with the Creator for your own sake. This is called the law of the first restriction.

Question: When a person finds himself in a difficult situation, often hopeless, he turns to the Creator. Today, many people in our country turn to the Creator. Some have already lowered their hands in helplessness, some in anger, some in a plea, prayer, and demand, meaning, the Creator turned the nation to Him today.

Our hearing is sharpened today. What do you think we should hear? What does the Creator want to tell us?

Answer: That we should unite. This is the most important thing. If we unite, then we will defeat our internal enemy and external enemy, and in general then we will win.

Comment: You separate internal and external enemy; please explain this.

My Response: The most important thing is our egoism. We must defeat it, and then we will defeat the external enemy.

Question: So, one depends on the other?

Answer: Yes.

Question: And yet, what is the Creator telling us now?

Answer: He only tells us about connection. Nothing else! He will act in accordance with our connection.

Question: Today, every mother and every father who have a son or a daughter in the army, flinches at the sound of a doorbell ringing even more than from a siren. It isn’t from a phone ringing, but a doorbell. It is clear why; they are afraid that three officers will come in and suddenly tell them that their son, their daughter, or their husband has died.

The question is in what exactly is our maximum effort to save the lives of our children, relatives, and loved ones who are now on the front line?

Answer: The answer is the same—in our unification. In our unification in all cases and under all conditions.

Comment: You say “unification.” We hear this around us too, but you add something else to it.

My Response: What I mean by this is that we must unite in such a way that the Creator wishes to create a dome over us that will protect us, and most importantly, unite us. The Creator is waiting for this.

Question: Does He expect us precisely to turn to Him or that we want to unite and then turn to Him? What is the sequence?

Answer: That we will unite and turn to Him.

Question: And why do we turn to Him when we unite? After all, we have already united.

Answer: We begin to feel the need for Him then.

Question: Why does precisely this effort to unite lead to the need for the Creator?

Answer: Because then we begin to feel this upper force that can protect us, unite us, and save us from external and internal hatred.

Question: And if we now offer this formula to everyone that our unification leads to… what? How would you put it?

Answer: Our unification leads us to protection from above. Then the Creator is with us.

Comment: So far the world supports us. So far everyone is horrified by the footage of Hamas fighters as they were attacking, showing how they were killing, and as they were taking prisoners. The world shuddered. But time is running out, we are launching an operation to destroy Hamas.

And you understand that literally after some time pressure will begin, and it will be a terrible pressure, enormous, from the whole world.

My Response: It depends on how much we will be together.

Question: If we are together, we can have an answer?

Answer: To move on and on. They wanted to throw us into the sea, we have to throw them into the sea.

Question: What are these attributes: mercy, truth, justice, and peace? Are these special forms of desire in a person, as in the carrier of these attributes? Where did this come from?

Answer: This came from human nature, which gradually developed these attributes in itself. They are manifested in us in this way.

Question: But we study the development of desires in the wisdom of Kabbalah, and here some attributes appear in a person. How does this relate to the nature of the person and to his development?

Answer: This is directly related to our nature. Based on it, all four attributes develop in us and oppose each other.

Question: We are all different in the ten. Some demand to be pressured since they realize this is the way for them to advance. Others, on the contrary, say there is no coercion in spirituality. How can we properly apply this pressure in the ten? What is the correct formula?

Answer: Do not be afraid of pressure; you just need to behave correctly in the ten, as clearly as possible,  and then all problems will be solved by the Creator Himself and not by us. We only need to properly relate to the states we are in.

After all, everything that happens is done by the Creator, and we must ask Him to correct the imbalance between us, which determines all the negative events in our lives.
