Part 3:

Baal HaSulam. Peace in the World (Hopes for Peace)

READING (Hope for Peace)

1.S. (05:53) What is he speaking about truth, mine is mine and yours is yours? What, an egoistic truth?

R Yes.

S. What does he mean that the conditions of peace weren't made yet?

R. There's no conditions yet, the foundation on which to build peace.

S. Why not? You see the truth like mine is mine, yours is yours. It seems that it's suitable. Why does he write that they are not ready yet?

R. It's not conditions for peace.

S. This peace according to how he defines it or the peacemakers defined it?

R. No, according to how it should be.

2. S. (07:00) Why does he call those who are willing to give of their own? Why does he call them fearful and weak of heart?

R. Because this is what aims them. This is what directs them and nothing else.

S. Fear? Fear directs them?

R. Sure. For example, the fear to die. It is not some ideology that holds them higher. They're connected to something that is above time.

Reading again.

3. S. (13:55) What does it mean to be the constructors today in the right way, not to do it from fear?

R. First of all, reach peace.

S. Reach peace? But that's a process we want to come to.

R. That you need to educate yourself and others. For them to be all understanding of how to reach peace.

S. He writes that asking for mercy and the building of the world is the same, so what is that mercy that we need to be with?

R. Hesed.

S. But how is that different from what he says about the constructors that are cowards? How does that change?

R. We need to first construct the society that is not composed of the cowards and that rather the goal is.

S. What is the goal?

R. Connection. Construction.

S. That is the real truth?

R. Yes.

S. From this the real peace will come?

R. Yes.

4. S. (15:50) So according to what Baal Hasulam is describing here we have to build a new Society to reach peace?

R. Completely, yes.

S. So until there won't be a change, an essential change in society, so there's no chance for peace?

R. There's no chance.

S. It's a very strong saying by Baal HaSulam in reality.

R. What he writes, it appears terrible.

S. What can make such a change in society that it inverts into something that can reach peace? It sounds like the upper force.

R. The upper force. If you despair of all other options it is as if you have them. Then you reach the only option that you have in your hands, in your heart which is to scream to the Creator together with everyone.

S. And until we reach that stage, is there anything to do with this reality that is just deteriorating everyday.

R. Only to invest in dissemination. Ok?

5. S. (17:50) What's the problem with mine is mine and yours is yours?

R. No problem. Don't touch me and I will not touch you.

S. Can that bring peace?

R. No.

S. Why?

R. Because the will to receive is at the foundation of human nature.

S. Why if I separate my children I have quiet at home?

R. Because they have control over them, of someone who is bigger and comes to them and bends them and then you have peace. Wait until they grow up.

S. Mine is mine, yours is yours is impossible, it cannot exist in the world?

R. Of course. Okay, I see you a little in despair and this is good for today. So until tomorrow, go over this article again and we will continue this clarification, ok?
