So you thought that generosity came from good will and caring for other people? Think again.
New genetic research shows that it may just be a matter of genes. From Kabbalah’s viewpoint, however, this is hardly news. That’s why we were sure that a meeting between Geneticist Prof. Ebstein and Kabbalist Dr. Laitman would be extremely fascinating.
Read “A Kabbalist, a Geneticist and the Meaning of Life”
From the Meeting:

Kabbalah Today Reporter, Oren Levi: Earlier you mentioned that what a person does is 50% influenced by his genes. What about the other 50%?
Prof. Ebstein: That comes from society, the education one receives from his parents or his school.
Oren Levi: Okay, so if this adds up to 100% - 50% genes and 50% society - then where am “I”? What do we have left of the person himself?
Prof. Ebstein: That is the question.
Oren Levi: And what does Dr. Laitman say about this, from the perspective of Kabbalah?
Dr. Laitman: What can I say - there is no free choice. more…

The Consumer Effect
Feature Article in Kabbalah Today Issue 10
The globalization of economics means that any local market is inextricably tied to the global economy. The ongoing dollar decline, lately spurred by changes in China’s market, clearly demonstrates how interdependent the world’s markets have become. We have to discover the right way to act within an interconnected system—and what’s a better example to study than Nature, the mother of perfect, integral systems? more…
