Single Source Of All Thoughts And Feelings

laitman_289Question: What does it mean to think and analyze? Should I just sit and think that I want to attain spirituality? Or does this imply my actions toward the friends?
Answer: The action is very simple: all my thoughts and feelings should have one basis—the Creator. He creates, enlivens, and places everything that I think and feel in me. Whatever happens to me, whatever manifests in me, the Creator does it all.
Therefore, it is advisable to constantly be in the thought that “there is none else besides Him.” If I aspire to the same thoughts and feelings of the friends and try to unite all our hearts and mind, then we connect all our efforts together into a single massive common effort, one big heart and one big head in which we want to feel the Creator as the source, as the root cause of our feelings and our mind.
If we, in such a way insistently demand that He reveal Himself to us as the cause of our thoughts and feelings, then we very quickly come to a state where, with the help of the upper light, the Creator begins to manifest in us.

New Life #208 – Parenting Teenagers, Part 1

New Life #208 – Parenting Teenagers, Part 1
Dr. Michael Laitman in conversation with Oren Levi and Nitzah Mazoz
Summary:
They key to parenting teenagers is to put them in a good, round environment.Parents need to find external sources of influence that will be respected in the eyes of the teen like a big brother or a slightly older friend. It is best if the environment holds the teen’s positive boundaries. The parent must not play with the child’s trust and must make every effort not to seem evil in his eyes. There is no punishment. The parent gives the message “I am with you.” The youth must feel a sense of shame that arises from within. This is how he will learn to escape from shame and attain dignity.

Does Denying The Creator’s Governance Bring Harm?

laitman_592.02Question: How can I tell when I deny the Creator’s governance? Can it bring me material or spiritual harm?
Answer: You cannot know this. If you could know, you would never exit egoism, you would do everything to get the maximum egoistic reward for yourself and would harm yourself spiritually by doing so.
You cannot obtain this knowledge until you begin to act altruistically, above yourself.

“South Korea’s Love-Hate Relationship Toward Jews” (The Times Of Israel)

The Times of Israel published my new article “South Korea’s Love-Hate Relationship Toward Jews
Extreme Jew-hating and Jew-loving sentiments are prevalent in South Korea, a land where most of the people have never even met a Jewish person. How can this strange paradox be explained? It shows that the phenomenon of anti-Semitism is beyond all logical reasoning. The concealed explanation behind anti-Semitism lies in a deep internal sensation within humanity that Jews hold the key for fulfillment in life, a secret that they are not revealing and are thereby blocking the path to success and happiness for all. This potent secret is the source behind both admiration of Jews and anti-Semitism.
Rampant anti-Semitism in Europe and America is no surprise where, right or wrong, Jewish influence is perceived in basically every field in society. In fact, people significantly overestimate the number of Jews in their respective countries as a corollary to their sense of notorious Jewish power, one of the most commonly-stated reasons for animosity toward Jews. This is true in the case of South Korea with its microscopically small Jewish community and yet wildly rampant anti-Semitism. According to monitoring groups, it is one of the most anti-Semitic places in the world with 53% of its population bearing Jew-hating attitudes.
On the other hand, a fascination among Koreans with delving into Jewish tradition is popular in schools and homes. As evidence, the Korean government announced recently that a Korean translation of the Mishnah, the Oral Torah, will be ready next year for everyone’s access. In addition, Talmud study methods have already been adopted as part of their educational training, a phenomenon rarely seen to such an extent in other countries.
An ongoing quest to identify Jewish techniques to achieve fulfillment and prosperity in life is particularly prominent in South Korea due to their profound social problems. Despite its economic progress, South Korea is one of the most unhappy countries in Asia and is ranked among the most unsatisfied nations worldwide, according to recent surveys. Koreans feel there is something they need to learn and implement from the Jews to flip their current situation. They are trying to unlock what they consider to be the secret power of the Jewish people to thrive and survive.
The wisdom of Kabbalah explains that anti-Semitism is imprinted within the nations of the world. Anti-Semites in Korea accurately detect a “negative dependence” on the Jews. They instinctively feel that Jews are somehow responsible for evil in the world. This impression, however, is not unique to Koreans. It lies in the heart of every person to a greater or lesser extent.
What is the reason for the so-called “negative dependence” on Jews, the instinctive feeling that Jews are behind the evil in the world?
It comes from the network that connects all of us together in a single system, where each lives as an indispensable integral part and each has a crucial role to play. The role of Jews in this system is to exemplify a method for creating positive relationships between people. The keys to this ancient method of connection are found in the authentic wisdom of Kabbalah, and Jews have the duty to pass it on to humanity.
As long as Jews deny the world this important knowledge, people suffer. And as long as this distress continues, humankind will continue subconsciously sensing the source of their deprivation in the Jews.
Unfortunately, most Jews are unaware of their inherent power, of the potent program in their cultural possession that can correct imbalances at all levels, and they too suffer from anti-Semitism without understanding why. It must be made crystal clear that the moment the Jews spread their method of connection to all nations, peace, security, and happiness will be achievable by all, suffering will end, and anti-Semitism will vanish from Korea and all the peoples of the world.

The US: Emerging Nazism And Anti-Semitism

Dr. Michael Laitman






From My Facebook Page Michael Laitman 4/11/19
“If I see that the rising anti-Semitism in the U.S. is correcting the Jews of America, that they begin to move from the Democratic side to the Republican side, then we truly have hope to get through all these states in a relatively positive manner. And I truly hope that will happen – that they realize they are in a very negative and threatening state.
If they don’t get this and remain on the Democratic side – I don’t see a good future. I think they will suffer greatly, as massive Nazi parties will emerge in the U.S. and they will reach places of power, along with Islamic fundamentalists, and they will turn the U.S. against Israel, and then there won’t be any country left in the world that will support us.”

How Long Is Left Until The End Of Correction?

laitman_214Question: If there is no time in spirituality, what is the direct path? Is it shorter?
Answer: There is no time in spirituality. It has nothing to do with our world. There are 6,000 years until the end of the correction. It is now year 5779. So 221 years remain to the final correction.
However, we can achieve it sooner. In general, whatever the science of Kabbalahpredicted happened precisely by the clock. After the final correction, the whole world will rise to the level of the upper world.

The Minimal Time To Reveal The Upper Light

laitman_528.03Question: Have you ever seen a ten in our world that reached the light of Hassadim?
Answer: I haven’t. Close to it, yes. Not a ten, but a smaller number of people.
Question: How long did it take them to reach that state?
Answer: It doesn’t matter because it depends on many variables. Such revelation can happen with five to six people in a couple of years, or might take a decade for a ten. But I don’t believe that it can happen sooner than in three to five years. This is the minimal time.

New Life #207 – Parental Authority

New Life #207 – Parental Authority
Dr. Michael Laitman in conversation with Oren Levi and Nitzah Mazoz
Summary:
As the world is becoming integral and connected, how will we create parental authority and how will we teach our children to manage it in their lives? Parents have authority if their children see them as wise and knowledgeable regarding how to navigate today’s connected, integral world. The integral approach to educating children doesn’t preach morality but brings children to self-awareness by providing them with a positive example. Parents need to show that they are like children themselves in relation to society, nature, the world, and the higher power.

A Friend Is My Mirror

laitman_235Question: How can I help a friend with his problems if they are provoked in him by the Creator?
Answer: And how can I not help a friend if the Creator, by causing the problems, is showing them to me through my friend?
If I see my friend having problems, it means that the Creator demonstrates them so that I can solve them.
In no case should I leave it unattended, knowing that the Creator is communicating with me through everything that is happening to me. He created a desire in me and in this desire He now triggers certain signals. I have to read these signals of my own desire and react to them.
Respond to the Creator through the friends, through the group, through the entire world group, through all of humanity, because it is all but one soul. This is all my conversation with the Creator.

The Degrees Of A Kabbalist

laitman_567.04Question: What can a Kabbalist on the final degree do that a Kabbalist on a mid or lower degree cannot?
Answer: Bestow. Everything is evaluated and measured only by the ability to bestow. The greater the egoism of a person, the greater his or her bestowal, and thus, the greater the degree. In this manner, one reveals more of the upper world, the Creator, and his own state on the Creator’s degree.
Question: How do I determine the power of my egoism?
Answer: For now, you cannot measure the power of your egoism. You can determine it only if we exist in three lines: right, left, and middle. We will then receive an opportunity to measure one side with respect to the other, and the spiritual degrees will emerge accordingly. This is the dimension of egoism.

The Duality Of The Upper World

laitman_944Question: How can I unite my desire with the group’s desire when I want to hide even the smallest degree of the Creator’s greatness as a personal attainment? It is too personal for me to share.
Answer: The best way to progress is to leave all your desires, everything you have, only take strength from it, enter the group, and try to turn to the Creator through it. Take all the aspirations of the friends from the group as if you are an adult and they are small children.
This is what you need to gather from them and then appeal to the Creator with a request to protect them, raise them, direct them to think correctly so that they feel how they should be interconnected, how they should rise in a common connection in order to create a Kli (vessel)—a place for the Creator to be revealed. This should all be in order to give Him contentment, and at the same time you should also be content by giving Him pleasure.
We always move in two levels: egoism and connection above it, unification, and gladness in order to please the Creator. We must clearly work on these two levels.
You will then feel how you emerge into the duality of the upper world where both the corpuscular and the wave theory of light work. That is, light is perceived as waves or particles depending on whether you observe the electrons passing through.
You will see that in reality, it is all one in the spiritual world. Only our egoism divides it into different levels. Therefore, in every level we get different opinions, desires, combinations, everything that kills our world, but this is precisely so that in the next, higher level, we will perceive perfection.

Summary:
How can we use our family as a training ground for building good relationships with outsiders? What values should prevail at home? Also, what is the power of personal example? Developing the ability to communicate with others will ensure success in life because today’s world is connected. The art of building a family bond anywhere guarantees success in the interconnected world.

Purposefulness Of Spiritual States

laitman_624.03Question: Is the state of euphoria acceptable when studying Kabbalah?
Answer: Of course. People want it.
Question: Can it not end?
Answer: It will end and will alternate with tremendous devastation and disappointment and again with contentment and euphoria until a person starts to control the two lines clearly: right and left. Then the happy and sad state, fulfillment and void, will be the same for him because one needs them both and both lead to the goal.
Question: How can one distinguish between joy and delight from ordinary communication with people and joy from unification in Kabbalah?
Answer: One can distinguish it by meaning and purposefulness. In Kabbalah, there is a sense in all states because each of them advances you. It doesn’t matter what actions you take and how you feel, they still bring you closer to the goal millimeter after millimeter. Therefore, life does not go in vain.

What Is Reborn In The Next Life?

laitman_627.1Question: If a person has not developed his point in the heart and therefore has no soul, then what is reborn in the next life?
Answer: Every person has a desire. Desire is a spiritual structure. But it could be ready for correction, change, and connection with others now, or it could not be ready yet.
However, in principle, every person is in their desire as an eternal particle of a single soul.

Weigh Your Wishes And Thoughts

laitman_232.06Question: Why is the goal of creation in such a contradiction with the terrible state of humanity, which is immersed in egoism?
Answer: The fact is that we went through a shattering. Therefore, all thoughts and desires that arise in us are negative, opposite to the Creator and opposite to unification in the ten.
We only need to weigh our desires and thoughts, heart and mind. We have to constantly check these two parameters, how much they help, or on the contrary, oppose unification. Only in this we can see their positive or negative height.

New Life #205 – The Role Of The Parent, Part 1

New Life #205 – The Role of the Parent, Part 1
Dr. Michael Laitman in conversation with Oren Levi and Nitzah Mazoz
Summary:
The role of the parent is to teach the child the wisdom of life, how to connect with others. Children learn best through positive example. Parents should arrange weekly family meetings in which everyone shares and strives for agreement. This creates a common feeling in the center of the family and, as a result, each family member has a sense of belonging to this small society which anchors them in life. Each child must be aware that devotion to the family is above everything else in life.

Shame—The Transition Point

laitman_962.1The descent of spiritual Partzufim, Sefirot, and worlds from the world of infinity downward is the revelation of the desire to receive that emerges in Malchut of the world of infinity because of the feeling of shame from its oppositeness to the Creator. This oppositeness pushes the created being to seek a way to become like the upper. Therefore, all his actions, even though they make the created being more distant from the Creator by lowering him from above downward, nevertheless contribute to the revelation of the desire to receive and to the attainment of the quality of bestowal by the created being.
Yet, so far, this is not a free choice of the created being but rather just a result of the mutual work of the forces of reception and bestowal and of the yearning of the created being to balance these forces. So far, the created being develops on the inanimate, vegetative, and animate degrees, unconsciously fulfilling the program of nature. The decision made in the world of infinity continues to manifest and obliges the created being to act.
Therefore, after restricting the desire and making the decision to achieve maximum possible equivalence with the Creator, the created being begins to act according to the extent of the revealed deficiency. The first action of reception for the sake of bestowal happens in the Partzuf of Galgalta, when equivalence with the Creator’s desire was achieved for the first time through restriction, Masach, reflected light, rejection of the light, and Zivug de Hakaa (coupling by striking) with it, above the desire to receive. However, so far, this equivalence is only at a minimal, inanimate level, in the light of Nefesh.
The force of the desire (Kli) is not measured quantitatively, in kilograms or meters, but by the extent of its equivalence with the Creator. The closer you are to the Creator and the more you are like Him, the greater you are; and the farther away you are from Him, the smaller you are.
Having received the light for the sake of bestowal in the Partzuf of Galgalta, that is, having reached adhesion with the Creator in the inner light, the created being makes a new discovery: he reveals the surrounding light, the love of the Creator, who wishes to give everything to the created being. He discovers the purpose of creation in more depth and understands what should be done, how to receive all of the Creator’s attitude toward him for the sake of bestowal in order to respond to Him with the same love.
This is not about plates full of food but about the connection between the two of them: soul to soul, heart to heart. This is what causes the entire process of descent from above downward. The created being sees that from his current state it is impossible to reach the final goal and to receive the entire light of the Creator, complete adhesion and equality with Him. The Creator wants the created being not to remain a baby that completely depends on Him, but rather to grow up to the height of the Creator and to become His partner, equal to Him in everything.
The Creator is the first because He created the created being. However, in achieving similarity with the Creator, the created being must be first, it must be his choice in order for this equivalence to be a true one. Therefore, the created being rejects the previous reception in Galgalta, seeing that it is not enough and will not lead to the goal. As a result, new desires, limitations, and intentions are revealed, which require what is called the “letters of the work” to be revealed.
Through receiving the light in Galgalta in order to bestow and through rejecting it, the new Kelim, the new attitude, is born. The created being understands the Creator and himself in a new way, perceives the process of development and its ultimate goal in a new way. The collision of the inner and the surrounding light, revealed in the created being, shows him what his relation and connection with the Creator should be. On this basis, the created being builds the following PartzufimAB, SAG, MA, and BON.
To each subsequent Partzuf, the created being comes with an increasing depth of desire, feeling more and more incapable of bestowing to the Creator, and it begins the calculation in a new way. Therefore, it is said that “the expansion of the light and its departure make the Kli fit for its task.”1
The desire to receive develops in four stages of HaVaYaH and stops, reaching full readiness to receive all the light of infinity. However, once the created being receives everything, it feels that it is opposite to the light and begins to burn from shame. This is an unbearable feeling, which forces him to get rid of the fulfillment and consequently, the created being makes a restriction (Tzimtzum Aleph).
Shame is a feeling of oppositeness to the Creator. There was no shame previously—it does not come to the created being directly from the Creator. The Creator gives desire and fulfillment directly to the created being; the Light and the vessel come from the Creator. Yet, shame comes indirectly, as if the Creator has nothing to do with it. The created being feels his oppositeness to the Creator in the fact that he receives from Him.
From this point on, he begins to feel himself as a created being. This is the point we need to reach in returning from below up, and then we will be called human, Adam, meaning similar (Domeh) to the Creator. After all, the feeling of my oppositeness to the Creator is the beginning of a human, and it demands from us to build ourselves in equivalence to the Creator.2

The Spiritual Root Of Suffering

laitman_571.03Question: Why after having gone through sufferings and seeing the results they led to, do you understand that it could not be any other way and you justify them, but when you are going through them, you cannot justify them?
Answer: You really cannot. If you think in advance: “Now I am ready for all kinds of sufferings, and trials, anything there is, because they will reveal the whole world to me, spiritual sensations!”—it is good. But after a minute of experiencing suffering, you are ready to drop everything and run away just not to feel it.
Later, you justify everything. This is how the person is created.
Question: Does this have a spiritual root?
Answer: Yes, these are the two lines that cannot yet be combined within us.
Question: So, I cannot justify them while suffering, and only later can I understand whether they were useful?
Answer: Correct suffering is felt only in the group. It is a lack of communication between the friends, lack of mutual guarantee, mutual obligations, mutual upliftment. Everything else is completely unnecessary suffering, and it is better to avoid it.

What Does The Creator Pay Attention To?

laitman_947Question: A person has a period of accumulating suffering. Does a ten have such a period?
Answer: If you are in a group, you do not need to accumulate suffering. You need to collect the friends’ aspirations and desires and elevate them to the Creator, like how parents ask for their children. This is what we all need to do.
If everyone asks for others, it will be a serious request. The Creator pays attention not to the actual desires that He awakens in us, but to the way we, through our efforts, leave our desires, take the desires of the friends, and ask for them. The most important thing is the quality of our appeal to the Creator.

If You See Only Your Egoism…

laitman_942Question: How can we stay on the spiritual path when wherever we turn we see only our egoism?
Answer: You need to increase your work in the group and try to cancel your egoism toward each other. You have to show that you specifically are playing along with each other, envying one another, to constantly rise above yourself.
This can be realized only in the group until you start receiving help from above. You can do this very quickly.

New Life 204 – Family In The New World

New Life 204 – Family in the New World
Dr. Michael Laitman in conversation with Oren Levi and Nitzah Mazoz
Summary:
What are the reasons for the breakdown of human society? Is it possible to achieve constant happiness and fulfillment in our lives, and how is it possible to enjoy the family again? Building the concept of family between us depends on each and every one of the family members; all are equal in this. Each one participates in his or her part, otherwise a family would not be built. Each one gives to the whole according to his ability. The essence of the wisdom of life is in developing the ability to connect with other people. Whoever has acquired the ability to connect with others at home will succeed everywhere in gathering people around him.

Complaints Against A Teacher

laitman_600.04Question: Why does it happen that at a certain stage your beloved teacher does not seem so beloved anymore? Moreover, it seems that he manipulates you and says things that you want to criticize over and over.
Answer: That is natural. A student does not advance without having complaints and criticisms in regard to the teacher. Advancement occurs on two sides: the left and the right, where on one hand you have criticism, and on the other hand, forceful justification.
Therefore, if a critical attitude to the teacher arises in you, it means that you now need to add from the other side, in spite of your opinion, the opinion of others, and in spite of the rejection and even hatred toward the teacher that suddenly might emerge in you. You need to rise above it in faith above reason, to the state where you continue to hold onto him.
It requires tremendous effort from the student. And if you already are in it, congratulations. This work does not end even when you enter the spiritual world at the first spiritual attainment—it continues even on higher degrees.
To the extent that you suddenly feel rejection from your friends in the group, realizing that a completely irrational hatred toward them arises in you, the same irrational hatred and not just a critical attitude will emerge in you toward the teacher. You will need to overcome it through faith above reason.

Spiritual Screen And Money

laitman_232.06Comment: In our world, money determines and controls everything.
My Comment: In the spiritual world, money also controls everything.
“Money,” in Hebrew “Kesef,” comes from the word “Kisuf,” which means “covering.” In Hebrew the names of objects and phenomena are given for a reason and come from the content, the properties from which they derive.
To the extent that you can cover egoism with the quality of bestowal and love, the egoistic quality of reception turns into the quality of bestowal. This is how you earn spiritual capital, that is, reveal the Light.
Therefore, the spiritual screen is also called “Kisuf” (“Kesef”), as is money in everyday life. Of course, people do not know where it came from, but Hebrew is a Kabbalistic language.

The Only Opportunity To Reveal The Creator

laitman_947Question: If everything inside and outside of me are parts of the system that controls me, then why precisely through the connection with the friends can I control myself and the system?
Answer: It is because they go together with you to search for this connection. Take any friends in the group and try to connect with them.
We all are different, no one orders particular friends for himself. Connect with those in the group.
We all are in a single system and are designed in advance to suit each other. Therefore, we are assembled this way from above. We have some spiritual potential within us. The upper light through its influence pulls us to the revelation of the Creator.
Question: Is it easier to feel this in the Kabbalistic environment?
Answer: It is not just easier. It is the only opportunity.

New Life #203 – The Family Unit in Crisis
Dr. Michael Laitman in conversation with Oren Levi and Nitzah Mazoz
Summary:
The nuclear family is in turmoil and often breaks up. Despite what children need, it is very difficult to maintain a family for long these days. Parents, children, and siblings are all increasingly detached and isolated. At the end of thousands of years we have reached the point where we want to be alone. But what did we gain from it? I have everything of my own, but I’m unhappy. A new space is revealed. With the help of integral education, we can stop the trend of deterioration and build a new family.

What Influence Do Kabbalah Conventions Have On The World?

Dr. Michael LaitmanQuestion: Next month, we will be holding major conventions in North America and Latin America. What influence will these conventions, and the conventions we hold in general, have on the world?
Answer: We cannot openly show the world the influence we have. However, we need to first and foremost trust what the Kabbalists write, that we hold great influence. We also need to see how the pace of the world’s development depends on our influence. The fact that the nations of the world blame the Jews for the world’s problems, although it appears as if they point out issues such as the Jews’ disproportionate influence in finance and hi-tech, the deeper reason for their complaints is due to our need to bring the world to a harmonious spiritual state.
We have the ability to attract the world to spirituality. As the world rapidly changes, with very fast progress in society and technology, I hope that we will be able to explain to the world what form it needs to acquire. According to Baal HaSulam, in the Shamati article “Still, Vegetative, Animate and Speaking,” we learn that the entirety of creation is at the still level, that is, it doesn’t move by itself, but it is moved by nature. Also, as Baal HaSulam explains in his article “The Peace,” Nature (HaTeva) and God (Elokim), that is, the upper force, are one and the same. Therefore, we are made of the force of creation, which is called “I created the evil inclination.” If we oppose that evil inclination, then we acquire the force of bestowal and perform acts of bestowal, which are against the Creator’s acts, which is called “My sons defeated Me.” That is the vegetative force. With that vegetative force, we exit to the upper world, not as the Creator created us, outside of Himself, but we return to Him, and we can then bestow on and influence the world. That is what we need to do.
In bestowal, there are vegetative, animate and human levels, where the entire motion of these levels is in the extent to which we can bestow to the environment, and through it, to the Creator. In the vegetative level, in spirituality as with the vegetative level in our world, it still depends on time and place. Likewise, the animate level, like in our world, is independent from time and place, because it has its own time. It lives and dies, and it also has its own individual motion. In spirituality, such individual motion is spiritual development. However, the still, vegetative and animate are all connected to the environment. The final human level, however, is detached from the environment, rising above all the other levels.
We thus need to see that our whole development is in the construction of the correct environment, through which we can exit our initial nature. By drawing ourselves upward from the still form, which the Creator created, we attract humanity after us, whether they want it or not, because they are at the still level.
Therefore, our conventions are made in order to accelerate the world’s development. Why is that important? It is because the more we attract the world forward, the more the world will experience positive, enjoyable and harmonious development. Wherever we will fail to attract the world to develop spiritually fast enough, then we will all receive blows from behind in order to help us advance.
We thus place a lot of importance and emphasis on our conventions so that as many people as possible will participate. In addition to accelerating the world’s development to a positive and harmonious state, our conventions also provide an opportunity to advance individually in a positive way.
In short, the more participants, the more we draw the positive force of development, and thus the more we can advance humanity to a harmonious state in a positive way.
