Dr. Michael Laitman’s answer to the question: “What does the slogan ‘WE! Make It Real’ mean in spiritual terms?”
Children In The Shusterman School Appear In UN Voices Of A New Generation Video
The Shusterman School, currently an extra-curricular activity center operating in after-school hours, based on the wisdom of Kabbalah in Israel, has been in operation for less than a year. Its students represented Israel in this UN video “Voices of a New Generation,” which took children from all around the world speaking about what are the world’s problems and what can we do to shift the world’s development in a positive direction.
Here are what the children said in the video:
“Wars… what are wars all about?
About money, respect, control.
Why is that?
What is the essence of this?
Why can’t we just get along?
That’s how we are.
It’s our nature. It’s stronger than us. It controls us.
Thousands of years we tried to live in peace, but we just could not.
We were like that, but we discovered the secret.
We found the solution for peace.
We need to see the person next to me, a little, at least a little, better than me.
It is not simple. Not at all.
But it’s the only solution.
There is no other solution.
Just to see the other as a person.”

Don Miguel Ruiz Interview With Dr. Michael Laitman On Personal, Social And Global Change

[audio:http://flash1.na.kab.tv:8080/eng/shows/crossroads/mp3/eng_mayevent_crossrd_donmugiel-ruiz_26min_2009-05-20.mp3]
Don Miguel Ruiz, guide, Shaman, master of the Toltec Tradition, and author of The Four Agreements talks about personal, social and global change with Dr. Michael Laitman.
Here’s an extract from the conversation:
Don Miguel Ruiz: When I say, “Please, help me change the world,” I am talking to the people of the world because it is time to let go of all those lies, to stop believing in all the superstition, and to stop being fanatics. It is time for us to become what we really are because we have the right to live our life with happiness, with joy. We are not here to suffer; we are here to enjoy life. Then, if we really want to change our world, we will do it for the best, according to ourselves, the best way we can do it.
Michael Laitman: We have to change our main quality, which is a desire to receive, our egos, that constantly forces us to absorb, to receive, and to use our environment and the world. The still, the animate, the vegetative, other people – we constantly want to receive from them, and to fulfill ourselves.
If some people come to sense the universe, the general force of the universe – which is the power of love and giving – then out of feeling it, they become like the general force that they feel. Then they extend themselves and start truly, from the bottom of their hearts, from what appears in them, they start to give and to give, and to love, and they start telling others about it.

Media Creation In Today’s Interconnected World
Listen to this interview using the Flash player below:
[audio:http://flash1.na.kab.tv:8080/eng/shows/crossroads/mp3/eng_mayevent_crossrd_alex-jablonski_10min_2009-05-20.mp3]
Director and documentary filmmaker Alex Jablonski discusses the responsibility of media creators in today’s world with Dr. Michael Laitman.
Here’s an extract from the conversation:
Alex Jablonski: I don’t understand this interconnectedness in my own life on a daily basis, yet. What I am saying is that for me, in my day-to-day existence, I understand the things that I’m viscerally, immediately, and in an immediate space connected to. Do you think it’s a spiritual practice? Do you think it’s a kind of broader understanding of the world? I’m saying what is it that an individual can do to make this understanding complete?
Michael Laitman: No, I’m speaking about it from the perspective of science. There is no spirituality here. I am an expert in cybernetics, which is a science of systems, systems of government, of management. And out of these systems, when we study a closed system where all the parts are like cogwheels all connected and tied to each other, a wheel can’t move however it wants. You can’t turn yourself only with respect to your kin. You have to move with the whole system, the global one. That’s the meaning of being in a global crisis, meaning we have a global plight. We are all connected, but we can’t get along. We’re stopping; all like wheels stopping the others. We are stopping each other from moving, and everyone is affecting, in this way, everyone else. So how do we move in harmony?
