External Changes Won’t Improve Our Connection. Only Internal Changes Will Improve Our Connection.
Notes from the third lesson at the
South American Kabbalah Congress
We have all been created as parts in one system, connected to one collective soul.
Gradually, we started feeling isolated from each other until we reached the state of lacking the sensation of unity between us.
That state is called “this world.”
The return to the sensation of true connection between us is called “the system of worlds.”
In other words, in the measure that we reveal the unity between us, we rise in the system of worlds – starting from the world of Assiya – the smallest degree of connection between the souls, through the world of Yetzira, Beria, Atzilut, Adam Kadmon and the world of Ein Sof (Infinity) – the final degree of connection between the souls, as in one body.
My will to connect to others = my soul.
The wisdom of Kabbalah was given to us as a tool for discovering the true connection between us, which is the condition for the revelation of the Upper World.
In order to speed up our development toward the revelation of the connection between us, one is dependent on one’s surroundings.
By nature, the ego is against our interconnection, so we need to create surroundings that value the importance of the true connection among ourselves.
The goal of all problems that befall us are not for us to connect through troubles and pressures, but to help us find that positive part within us, the internal connection between people, by ourselves.
Therefore, the fact that an intensifying connection is revealing among all parts of reality, in ecology, economy, and in the connections between us – this is a good sign.
Everything that seems bad or evil to us in our world is made that way in order to force us to connect with each other.
Therefore, it won’t help us to solve the world’s problems in an external way.
The change that will better our lives is the change of inclination from “correcting the world” to “correcting ourselves.”
Considering the above mentioned, it becomes clear that the sole free choice a person has is in his inclination toward connecting with others.
Today we are all, as if, covered by the external shell of the ego that differentiates between us and others.
Throughout history, we have developed within this external shell, until the fruit within it ripened.
And now, the time has come for us to crack this external shell and connect among ourselves.
Only in that way will the world’s problems be solved.

What Is The Proper Education For Teenagers?
Question at the South American Kabbalah Congress: What is the proper education for teenagers who have so many problems, like drugs and depression?
Answer by Dr. Michael Laitman: As I’ve said, the proper education for teenagers, which is also the proper education for us and the whole world… Why is the wisdom of Kabbalah being revealed today? It is written (in Baal HaSulam’s article “The Essence of the Wisdom of Kabbalah“), that the wisdom of Kabbalah is no more and no less than the revelation of the higher force to the creation in this world. In other words, we need to reveal the higher system acting on us, on our world. We need to reveal it so that it is clear to us.
It is hidden. We see and feel only our world, and not the higher system. We don’t know how it operates on us, and how can we give back to it in return, in a way where we’ll receive only good commands and responses from above.
We need to understand the whole loop between the higher system and our world, how we raise MAN above, and how we receive a response from above, which is called MUD. How can we do that? – That’s what we need to know. That’s why the wisdom of Kabbalah has been opened, precisely in our times. And with regard to your question, it’s the same with the education of children, we need to go that same way.
How can we reveal to children the higher system as quickly as possible, how it acts, and not wait for them to turn thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, when there starts to be problems with hormones, sex, boys and girls, drugs, and all kinds of things? Children need to be taught from a much younger age. The wisdom of Kabbalah states that the age of three is necessary to start the education of children, boys and girls alike. What does that mean? It means starting to teach and develop them.
Today’s education is based one hundred and fifty years ago, at the time of the technological revolution that began in Europe. It’s when people started working unlike how they used to work in ancient times, where there was a blacksmith, a shoemaker, a tailor, and some mechanic who made some cart. This time marked the beginnings of the conveyor belt, and working with the conveyor belt required a lot of people. They then brought people from villages, and taught them quickly in order to place them in factories fast. And like it is in factories, they needed to just stand there and understand what they should do… We see this today in China. Have you seen the factories in China? There are ten thousand Chinese people sitting there, each one doing one activity.
What do they need to learn at school? Continue reading “What Is The Proper Education For Teenagers?”
