Fast Transition To Change

Question: To introduce the method of connection, one needs to implement several practical tips. First, use the media. This is the instructive and educational stage.

We see how mass media today influences and shapes public opinion. Therefore, it is possible to change public perception by constantly advertising that everything depends on the unity of people. Then this value will be more important than any personal qualities of an individual.

Second, open—and this already exists today—research centers for studying the unification of humankind.

Third, the upbringing of children in schools. Indeed, only knowledge is given in them today but not upbringing.

It is also necessary to develop specific training programs for the unemployed, inmates, people living alone, and other segments of the population.

How long do you think it would take to implement all this? And how long will it take to learn new communication skills between people?

Answer: If people see this as an urgent, collective necessity for humanity, which is practically facing the threat of destruction, then this will be realized very quickly and accepted in the shortest period of time. It can be hours, days, or weeks. It all depends on how clear it becomes to people that a terrible fate is hanging over them.

Question: Will suffering be the catalyst for this process?

Answer: Undoubtedly! Only that! Man is an egoist. If he feels good, he will not lift a finger. And it takes energy to lift a finger.

Remark: But he wants to get better.

My Reply: Depending on where it is better: “Do I understand what is better? Am I sure of this? No, I will look at others for now.”

Unfortunately, this will not work in a positive way. We see that a person is used to lying on the sofa. And only if he is approached by someone with a stick does he jump up.

Question: Is it still possible to positively come to changes in human psychology regarding relations with other people?

Answer: I hope so. At least such an example should be given to humanity. I work in this direction as much as possible. True, I am not engaged in the dissemination of Kabbalah among the broad masses, but I teach Kabbalah as a method of correcting certain special individuals who have an internal predisposition for this. I hope that in this way it will be possible to educate true teachers of the generation. And that generation is already taking shape.

Question: I know that Kabbalists are not engaged in predicting the future. Still, could you specify a time frame for when will the people of Israel be able to become a conduit? How long can it take?

Answer: I think that this will happen within the next few years. This will require some pressure from above, but in principle, people can grasp this very quickly. All the conditions for it exist today.

Therefore, visit our website and try to master our materials. This science will definitely come in handy for you anywhere any time, and you will not get away from it. Correcting the world is the goal of all humanity. And first of all, our goal.

Who Is More Prone To Order?

Question: Who, in your opinion, is more inclined to order—a man or a woman?

Answer: It depends on what level. On an everyday level, a woman, while a man does not feel or understand it at all. But he is more inclined to order at the level of comprehension, implementation, and management.

Question: Does the attitude to order change with age?

Answer: Slightly, but changing. Perhaps it even depends not on age, but on the profession, the nature of the occupation.

New Life 1274 – From Despair To Hope

New Life 1274 – From Despair To Hope
Dr. Michael Laitman in conversation with Oren Levi and Nitzah Mazoz

Despair comes from nature’s plan, purpose, and goal for human evolution toward the next stage of our development, which we do not yet understand. We are like children who want to feel good and cry out in demanding protest for mom to satisfy our desires. We do not yet recognize the evil of our approach to life and one another, that we wish to build our good fortune on the ruins of others.

We must reach the dead end of our egoistic development, the wall inside of our hearts that works against others. Once we are rid of all of our imaginary engagements, are left only with basic provisions, realize that our leaders are powerless, and are despaired of all of our forces, we will be able to cry out to the heavens and new options will unfold that we are currently unable to see. We will build a new, tranquil, peaceful society based on good relations between everyone. We will think about how to benefit others and no one will lack anything. We will have the best possible life that mother nature has prepared for us in advance.

It Hurts Me That The Entire World Is Suffering

The most important thing is to feel that today’s crisis is the common problem that unites us and helps us understand that we are connected with each other.

Let us all pledge that from this moment onward when we think about the coronavirus in relation to our family, our city, the school our child is going to, and our work, we will worry about all of humanity.

We will want all of humanity to be cured of the coronavirus, which is caused by our egoism that is revealed more and more every day. If we feel close to each other and are able to connect and embrace, then all viruses will disappear.

As soon as we think about our personal misfortune, let’s expand it a little and think about our common, global problem.

Egoists are usually happy that the whole world is suffering because then their own problem does not seem so terrible anymore, as it is said, “A trouble shared is a trouble halved.” But here it is just the opposite: I suffer for the entire world. My suffering is much greater if I see that not only am I suffering for my children, family, relatives, acquaintances, but all of humanity is suffering.

We need to start treating it differently. The fact that everyone is suffering with me does not make me feel better, but on the contrary, it hurts me much more because the entire world is suffering.

Cracks In The Heart

Why did the coronavirus appear? Due to the fact that there is no correct connection between all the elements of creation, at all levels: inanimate, vegetative, animate, and human.

Where a connection should already appear, according to the general program of development, that moves us toward the end of correction, but it still does not exist, from these places of rupture, like from cracks in the walls, viruses crawl out.

Viruses are the will to receive that should have been corrected by now, but which we have not yet corrected. That’s why these viruses appear. We try to fight them at all levels, in all forms, but in reality, we have to treat them at the highest degree where they manifest, that is, at the human degree.

Besides the fact that the coronavirus harms our health, even worse, it leads to our distancing from each other, closes workplaces, kindergartens, schools, and so on. In those places where the virus has a negative impact on human society, we need to make a correction through our correct connection.

We cannot stop the epidemic by putting on masks, hiding in our homes, closing schools, kindergartens, and cinemas—all this is not required. We just need to make a correction at the highest degree, that is, in the relations between people. Let’s begin to correct ourselves by making the correct connection with each other, and by doing so we will neutralize the coronavirus. It is written, “Love will cover all crimes (that is all viruses at the human degree).”

Then we will see how, with the help of the most powerful weapons, we begin to put the entire creation in order from above downward, more and more, until these viruses disappear from the lower degrees: from human bodies, from animals, from absolutely everything. This should be the level of our impact on all the problems that we reveal in nature today; all correction is only through our unity.

Through our connection, we will caulk all the cracks from which viruses, these little vipers, come out, and the epidemic will stop. The disease is getting more acute day by day, but there is a cure!

From the 2^nd part of the Daily Kabbalah Lesson 8/31/20, Writings of Baal HaSulam, “The Arvut (Mutual Guarantee)”

Who Does The Virus Hit More – Men Or Women?

Comment: The coronavirus has hit almost everyone: presidents, ordinary people, from fisherman to academic. Millionaires, not understanding what is happening, sit all locked up.

On the other hand, statistics show that twice as many men as women die from the coronavirus. There are many different explanations. Women supposedly have a better immune system and are less addicted to bad habits. How would you explain this?

My Response: I think men are more attached to and more responsible for correcting the world than women. They are more opposed to integral nature than women. They are more selfish. Therefore, to this extent they are more affected by the virus.

Question: Are men more selfish than women?

Answer: Of course. In its manifestations regarding nature, the surrounding society, etc. Women are still more likely to share, somehow balance. Their inner animal essence is like this. Not so with men. He is a conqueror, he is all about competition, and so on. So, the virus refers to them more. Therefore, they are more susceptible to viruses, weaker. Women are stronger. I think this is clear to everyone. A woman’s body is much stronger, much more resilient.

Question: Is it because they have this warmth, home, birth?

Answer: Yes.

Question: And the men have belligerence, hatred, and a desire to kill, capture?

Answer: This is a different kind of egoism. Of course.

Comment: You said something very important. Men have a greater responsibility to the upper system, to nature.

My Response: Yes, to become like it precisely because they are more egoistic. This is a very complex system, and it is impossible to begin examining now to what extent women and men are the opposite of an altruistic nature each in their own way.

Reasons For The End Of The Consumer Society

Comment: Some economists claim that the consumer society is coming to its end. The first reason for it is lack of trust, which seriously inhibits trade and economic relations.

My Response: But this can be overcome.

Comment: The second reason is environmental pollution since we do not yet have enough technology to process all the waste that we produce.

My Response: Who cares about this? If there is enough technology, it will be possible to produce even more.

Comment: The third reason is limited natural resources.

My Response: Nobody is interested in this either. We will find them. Let us fly to the moon and bring them back from there.

Comment: The fourth reason is growing inequality between the poor and the rich. Even in the post-coronavirus period it can be seen that the rich are getting richer. And everyone has huge egoism, and people are unlikely to tolerate it.

My Response: Of course they will not. The rich will have to pay a certain percentage of their huge income to buffer the discontent of the poor.

Comment: The fifth reason is uncertainty. They say there is a term “wealth effect.” Even people who have money are afraid to spend it because of the uncertainty so the consumer economy is coming to its end.

My Response: There is nowhere to spend! Offer them something so that they can produce it and make money on it.

Comment: They are afraid to spend money because they do not know what will happen with employment tomorrow. There is no confidence in the future.

My Response: Then these people are not really rich. A rich person is the one who has practically unlimited possibilities to cover more than his vital needs.

Comment: The sixth reason is the development of technology, which will lead to an even greater division of rich and poor, and correspondingly, to unemployment.

My Response: Of course, since there is no consumption. Therefore, big wars periodically occur. But today they are very expensive, and no one knows how they will end.

In principle, once wars solved problems, but today they do not because there are no borders: go where you want, live where you want. You can buy any passport. Therefore, there are no objective reasons for wars. Only religious, ideological wars remain.

Question: The seventh reason is a change in man’s internal needs. In your opinion, is this the main reason?

Answer: Yes. It kills everything else. This is the end of the consumer economy.

Now the virus is destroying a huge industrial jet that has been driven by tourism and travel. Hotels around the world, planes, cruise liners, guides, and huge masses of goods associated with this industry, all this no longer exists and will not exist. People do not want to wander around the world. There is nothing to entice them.

Something will have to be done with thousands of unnecessary planes. Maybe take them somewhere to the desert. They say they can be kept well there. And what will come up there? A museum of our era? But you cannot get away from this. It is just over! We need to understand that we cannot build a new world with old tools.
