Uncover Your Endless Desire Within
A teacher is not the flesh and blood person you see in front of you, but attainment of the Upper Force and experience along this path. What you should be absorbing from him is not the earthly things, but his connection with the Upper. More

The Book Of Zohar Shows Us The Path
To A Well Of Living Water
 
As we read The Book of Zohar, we should understand that it speaks only about the connection between our souls and the one general system in existence of which we are all a part. The Zohar speaks about the various degrees of connection and the actions that bind us. The only focus in all of this is the correlation of desires, and the reader should imagine himself inside of this net of connections. Then The Book of Zohar will begin to influence him.

It all speaks only about the inner connection between people. Just imagine how everything it describes is about you – it is you who ascends and descends along the spiritual degrees, relating to different parts of it which are called Jacob, Noah, David, Abraham, Isaac, and so on. All of this is you! As a result, you will see this entire picture before you. For example, take the following excerpt: More>>

Sensing the Warming Breath of Spirituality Through Kabbalah


Question by a Student:

   What is that eternality?

Answer by Dr. Michael Laitman:   "Eternality" is when I want to be only in this. For me, it is the greatest thing that exists. Our desire must be complete, because "spirituality" is completeness. It turns out that I must be similar at least to this completeness. Not to bestowal, not to anything, but at least to ascribe myself to spirituality, like a baby who is attached to his mother, and this is already enough to feel enlightenment.

Then you feel it like some kind of spiritual breath, like a force that operates on you, some kind of warmth. And this is not a psychological sensation, but something that later on becomes levels, consciousness, understanding, and attainment. More>>

Tapping the Universal Source of Love
A desire develops only after we “taste” something, it disappears, and we then feel the need to run after it. Intensity of this aspiration to the desirable is called a desire. More >>

The Language of Kabbalah is Bestowal


Question:
Are there rules for how to study Kabbalah that a student has to follow in order to learn the language of Kabbalah?

Answer: The language of Kabbalah is the language of bestowal. All four languages of Kabbalah (the languages of the Bible, Law, Legend, and Kabbalah) explain how to bestow. This is what you should be learning when reading all the books and explanations. You should always remember that everything you are reading and hearing is teaching you about bestowal.

Language is a program that you place inside you and set in motion. This program makes you think and want differently, and gives you a new attitude to the world. So, the language of Kabbalah is the language of bestowal. More>>

Spiritual Correction Through the Study of Kabbalah is an Inside Job


Many of us strive to create harmony and balance; it bothers us to see unfairness in the world. We see that some people are very rich while others have so little that they struggle just to survive. So why don’t those who have more than they need share with those who have nothing? Wouldn’t that logically fix the problem?

The problem is that we aren’t willing to do anything unless it benefits us personally. This is human nature; we are egoists. Human behavior is in sharp contrast with the rest of Nature. In Nature, every component of a living organism works together for the benefit of the whole; plants and animals instinctively follow this natural altruistic law. We do not.

But, by studying Kabbalah we can implement Nature’s laws within ourselves. When our individual connections are repaired in accordance with Nature, we not only correct the problems between people, but also provide the real and lasting repair for all the problems in the world because they exist only as a result of the broken connection in humanity.

Kabbalah’s Secret to Lasting Pleasure Is Knowing How to “Flirt” With It
 

The wisdom of Kabbalah, says that even though the greatest sensation seems like the peak of enjoyment, it is but a microscopic dose of what one feels upon discovering the spiritual realm of reality. Indeed, the spiritual sensation is so intensely delightful that none of us would be able to bear it within our current abilities to feel. Kabbalah teaches us how to develop and expand our senses, reaching a level of perception where we experience eternity, perfection, boundlessness, and infinity.


Kabbalah reveals a very unexpected method of receiving lasting pleasure: All we have to do is “conceal” our desire in a process that is very much like flirting. The concealment attracts, causing the pleasure to be revealed. Similarly, while the lasting pleasure we long for is concealed from us, we have to acquire a desire for its revelation. Once we reveal the pleasure, the trick to keeping it going is to conceal that revelation from our own egoistic desire. If we veil or conceal pleasure from our egoism, we rise above our egoistic desire and reveal a vast spiritual pleasure. More>>

Kabbalistic Text Bridges our Realm to the Spiritual


Question:
Kabbalah books speak only about the spiritual reality, whereas I only have a perception of the material reality. Where is the bridge on which I can cross from the corporeality I perceive to spirituality?


Answer:
We must realize that the spiritual world is only concealed from our senses. We live in a dream, in concealment. While reading Kabbalah books we need to want our senses to become sharper so that we will feel these forces, so that the world we are reading about is not disconnected from us, but is connected to us and is right here, operating inside of us. This is called "revelation," and this "revelation" occurs only through the Light's influence.


We do not know what this Light is. But by yearning to reveal the reality of which the book speaks, we awaken inside ourselves a force that influences us and slowly opens us to that feeling - at first to the feeling, and according to the feeling, also to understanding. This is how we are born in the spiritual world. More>>

Forging the New Reality Within
The purpose of Kabbalah is the correction of the entire world, without exception. We therefore cannot confine it to artificial limitations, since all of the souls have to unite into one and return to the state of Infinity. More >>
From Michael Laitman's Personal Blog

Kabbalah Is The Operating Program Of Reality

The science of Kabbalah is not just a description of all reality, but rather it is the operating program of the whole of creation, instructions for the creatures as to how to use this whole reality. The program is written in such a way that it is an entire reality all by itself. When we read Kabbalistic text, when we talk about them, when we think about, or feel them, we involuntarily absorb the Light within ourselves, in our not-yet-formed desire. The Light molds this desire, leading us to a new reality.

The actions that the science of Kabbalah talks about are actual actions, and if we were able to read these lines as they were written, we would have performed the actions while reading.

The science of Kabbalah is the actual realization of all the material of reality and not just a description of the structure of creation and how it operates. More>>

It’s Time to Become One with Humanity and Nature

These days, in our development, we have entered a global system, in which we are all connected to one another. In the past each one developed on his own, we have now reached a stage where we all belong to a single system, and thus, we have become reversed to the force of Nature, which is also One.

In the past, every one of us was somewhat of an egoist, and everything we went through occurred in order to raise us, each one according to his ego. But now the Light operates on us for the purpose of bringing us to correct partnership between us. And this is a completely different kind of Light - a Light that makes us opposite to the Nature. If so, where is the major change? It is in that Nature is "One," and there are seven billion of us. And now it is time for us to be "As One Man in One Heart." More>>

The External, Global Force Known as Desire
Success lies not in the magnitude of the effort, but in uniting all of the small efforts together. If they unite, the common effort will be directed at the quality of bestowal. This is enough to be born into the Upper world. More >>
From Michael Laitman's Personal Blog

Your Desire is not Yours, but a Force of Nature


Everything takes place within the desire for pleasure, which was created by the force of nature.
Man is not yet aware that the desire really isn’t his and that it rules over him. He is yet to distinguish these two aspects within himself as separate: desire and man.


But then inside of him awakens the point directed at bestowal and one begins to feel his desire as alien to him. He begins to distinguish between 1. Desire and 2. Me (point in the heart).


One’s efforts to change his desires further distance himself from them, and one begins to feel like their slave. Regardless of whether they bring pleasure or pain, one begins to understand that these desires are being sent to him. One’s reality appears to comprise three components: 1. External Force 2. The desires he is sent 3. Me. More>>

In All the Universe, Desire is Virtual and Confined by Perception


Question:
In order to feel the spiritual we need to develop a sixth sense, which does not pertain to the physical body. How does it work?


Answer:
Everything that we feel is perceived by our senses, and presented to the consciousness in the form of a ready-made image or concept.


My notion is built from two components which are, “I” and “what I perceive.” In addition, everything occurs in the desire. After all, the desire is the matter of the world.


We can measure different reactions of the body to a glass of juice for example, but in any case this will be a measurement of the reaction, and not a measurement of the desire.


Therefore, any desire is virtual, in the material as well as in the spiritual worlds. The desire itself, whether it is egoistic or altruistic, does not exist in matter. More>>

Correction Begins From The Highest Levels


Question:
I disagree with what you say, that “None of our actions really have any effect on climate change.” Our actions are driven by our egoistic desires, and therefore they do have a direct impact on climate changes. Doesn’t this make sense?

Answer:
No, it does not make sense to me, because you are only seeing the effects and then making up theories about what you’ve seen.

Our world is a world of consequences and everything descends upon us from Above. This is why correction at a higher level will bring a result in our world, while in our world, we can never make any “correction.”

We learn from Kabbalah that everything happens under influence of the Light from Above. More>>

Sense Beyond the World You Perceive Through the Study of Kabbalah

It is well known that we discover the world using our organs of perception. We are like a black box that only perceives things entering it from outside. To be more precise, nothing actually enters the box, it is only being affected or "pressured" and then reacts to it.

Whatever "gets" into us - a self-contained system, through the five organs of perception is recorded, processed and analyzed. Whatever is not picked up by our five organs of perception we do not feel.

Kabbalah is a method that allows us to develop an additional organ of perception, i.e. to receive additional information about something that exists in the external universe. By mastering this method we start feeling the surrounding world in a completely different way: that world will be perceived as independent from our egoistical body and isolated from our "Self". A person that has sensed this is called a "Kabbalist".

Equipped with the Kabbalistic methodology, a man, remaining in its physical body, living in our world, can sense beyond the limitations of his egoistical “body” i.e. his desire to receive. He can acquire the ability to sense the world outside himself. More>>

Unity - A Net Of Connection That Binds All Hearts
Indeed, there is a spiritual net between us, within our desires, that binds our hearts together. We won’t feel that bond, yet. The bond is a law of harmonious existence in Nature, which we won’t feel until we install the program called “humanistic interaction.”
The fundamental principle of such interaction is relating to another human being like a close member of your family. The true bond means that we behave like people in a “small village” where everyone takes care of one another. The current system sets conditions for one person to use others, the new one will make it unthinkable. Using another person will become tantamount to putting your hand into a flame or stealing from your son.
We can attain harmonious existence and feel that bond of humanistic interaction by rising above our ego and uniting. Through the method of Kabbalah we learn how to rise above our egos and reveal the spiritual net that binds us together.
We can build and experience this bond between us is in the upcoming North American Congress. We look forward to seeing you all there! More>>

Spirituality, Freedom And Bestowal Are The Same
Question: Today people no longer have to drive or walk to the Kabbalah classes in the rain. They can just watch it from their home. But is each person who watches our broadcast lessons granted the freedom of choice?
Answer: The freedom of choice doesn’t depend on how one connects to the lessons, but on one’s point in the heart. If the point in the heart is ripe, then one has free choice: the choice to establish a connection with the environment that will help him draw the Surrounding Light – the Light that Reforms. When a person feels the need for such a connection with the environment, this is called the free choice.
Knowing the terminology, actions, and structure of the worlds won’t reveal the Upper World to him. But it takes some time for a person to realize this. The freedom of choice begins from the moment a person begins to understand that a connection with all the rest of the souls is necessary to reach the attribute of bestowal. After all, this is what spirituality is. More>>

Develop a New Inner Sense & Reveal the Book of Zohar
Question: Why can’t everyone understand The Book of Zohar?
Answer: First of all, your mind won’t help you reveal anything. If we read The Book of Zohar trying to understand it with our minds, then we will see nothing more than a system of ethics, repeated warnings, instructions and strange tales.
It is only by opening up a new sense inside you, called the point in the heart, that you will begin to see a whole world when reading that same story. The Book of Zohar will suddenly begin to reveal itself within you.
When a person begins to attain qualities and definitions inside him, he enters deep inside the text of this book. The book itself begins to clothe within him, and the person reveals everything he is reading inside of him. More>>

Feel Impressions of the Spiritual World  through Kabbalistic Music
What is music? It is an emotion captured in its evolvement. Only music can deliver the process of transforming feelings through time. That is why, to those who have not yet perceived the spiritual world, the music of Kabbalah provides a certain analogy of the impression of spirituality that is felt by the Kabbalist.
Kabbalistic music expresses two conditions of Kabbalists: an aspiration to sense the spiritual worlds, and an aspiration to merge with the source of life in the joyful sensation of total perfection.
There is no need to know anything about Kabbalistic music before listening to it, since it is wordless. Its affect on the heart is direct and swift due to the intricate connection between our souls and the roots of the notes. Hearing Kabbalistic melodies over and over again allows the listener to feel the music penetrating deep within the soul, completely unobstructed.
