Part 2:

Baal HaSulam. The Teaching of the Kabbalah and Its Essence (The Order of the Evolution of the Languages)

Reading (00:24) “The Order of the Evolution of the Languages” Twice

1. R. (04:31) Is it clear until here? This means that the biblical language is the first language because it's close, it's easy to understand, maybe to feel to somehow depict it. That's why first that was being used to come close to the spiritual matter.

2. S. (04:59) It's interesting because the biblical language depicts the same system.

R. All languages describe the same system of languages, it's what connects us to the spiritual system to the Creator, that's what we call a language. All the rest if you say English or French or all that that's not languages, these are not languages, it's expressions of human beings according to what they feel in this world. A language is what connects us to the Creator, to spirituality.

S. It's interesting, people who lived during the time of the first and second Temples, they spoke in a certain language and was it clear to them that they were using terms of the Upper reality?

R. Some understood it, some didn’t of course.

S. And if we entered from the other side in principle can we say that during the period of the language of the Bible did people reveal what we see in the TES, the Sefirot, the worlds? Did they have such names?

R. Some attained it, and some did not. What's not clear here? Humans all connect, they're all graded according to their will to receive and to what extent their will to receive is close to in order to bestow, accordingly they start feeling that they are in a certain level a certain concept of godliness.

S. It's just interesting why if the system is one and there are different languages why should we describe that system in the language of the Kabbalah that came from the Ari a few thousand years after the language of the Bible?

R. It depends on the height of the souls how much humans are evolved by the lights that are clothed in them that awaken the desires and these desires start becoming closer to the spiritual system.

S. Meaning it can say that these students of Rabbi Shimon revealed with the same details what the Ari describes the Sefirot the Partzufim they go by different names?

R. I can't even explain that. What you should understand is that every generation there is a different aspect a different kind of attainment of the Creator they have reached and attained and they were really the ten of the Rabbi Shimon was truly in attainment of all the corrections on one hand, on the other hand they could express it in a different way, they didn't have it was enough for them the way they felt and understood because it doesn't depend on what they feel but rather how much the world is not yet ready for the revelation of the Creator, and so even though there is a ten in the final correction and it's clear that for thousands of years meaning thousands of incarnations of the soul they won't be able to discover what they discover but they didn't have whom to hand it out to and how to express it in a different way except for the Book of Zohar. It's a matter of a development of the languages that's why this is what he writes the order of the evolution of the languages and each and every generation we have such Kabbalists that do receive such revelation of godliness and they go with it and bestow to the whole generation and even to the next generations. But they don't have all these four languages.

S. The language of the Bible it's also interesting to ask, you once said that people used to live within that language?

R. That's correct.

S. For them it wasn't just a book like it is for us, but it’s a perception of reality and a sensation and they felt that and that's how they could remember it, how does a person feel that?

R. First of all we can say two things even today there are many people, in Israel for instance, that learn the Bible, the Torah and the three books that make up the Bible and they learn it and they know it by heart, they know it by heart. It's this thick book and if you tell them a few words he can keep on going all the way it's not a problem for him because some people don't want to read anything except for that. They learn only that, that's all they read and through that they can even reach a connection to God it depends on what level but yes it works this way on them.

S. What's interesting is that this text…

R. It was taught in all these as well, in ancient times each and every son, every boy had to learn everything that was revealed to them the Torah and all the three books, the one book that is made of three parts.

S. What was that text for them, the text that they studied, was it an inner sensation of theirs, was it connection with the Creator through that text, what was that text for them in this language?

R. All you have to understand is that even a generation or two generations ago I remember my grandfather, so he wouldn't read anything, any novels, or any literature, he wouldn't want to even hear of it. All he had was the Bible, that's all. That's how people used to live. Moreover if you're talking about generations ago moreover if you're talking about generations ago like from my childhood.

S. According to what you said now there's no other impressions, just the language of the Bible how did the people look at life in connection to the Creator through this text?

R. We can't imagine that because we're in a different kind of perception of reality, a corrupt way of the perception of reality that’s why I can't even pass on to you this way of connection to reality it was something else. For him all of reality he received all of reality through that book whatever that book said he looked at our world as well. Later we will understand that out of our work but basically it’s something different.

S. What's the connection between language as a channel of communication with the Creator and language as a written language?

R. Written language is something else it's in order to write it, it's in order to keep it from one generation to another, so here you have an additional matter of the signs how it's written, what the shape of each and every letter is how much a letter should contain of the ink for instance or the place around it and the shape of the letters and what order they come in the words and the laws of grammar there are many, many laws here.

S. The language of the Bible in English communicates that outlook on nature?

R. To a certain extent it does. I asked him about that, and he said yes. In something each and every language ultimately, even though they are corrupt, very corrupt because they have been changing for generations, but it passes on some characteristic way of connection for that nation to godliness.

S. Why does he write here that the language of the Bible was the easiest language to use? What's so easy about it?

R. It's original, and it didn't go through any change. That's why we have the same laws today. It's no longer this way because all the wise people, the scientists, they changed the language and also there is an influence between one language and another but in truth there was a time where the whole language, the Hebrew language, was completely adapted to the laws of nature, 22 letters and the MNTZPCH, five letters at end the words and all that according to the right grammar the right connection between all forces of nature which is the five degrees of coarseness.

S. Here it is known that every essence is connected with several connections and with several disturbances, the question is, if in our generation there is a Kli that is suitable to the light?

R. Of course there is. We see it from what Baal HaSulam writes. Why should we think about it? Baal HaSulam writes that our generation is a special generation that is really intended to reach the final correction. That's why it's all before us. Each of us has to feel that for him everything was prepared, and he's invited for the last generation.

4. S. (19:26) What we learned about the topic of the languages. One part of the question is it a projection of the development of the four phases of direct light?

R. Yes, of course there's no question here, everything stems from the four phases of direct light.

S. If that's the case we're in the last generation, if all the languages other than the language of Kabbalah, are they not for our generation are they for previous stages of development?

R. No, no, no, no. Everything is intended for our generation, in our generation we have to discover the connection between all the languages and how all these languages connect to one language that we discover the Creator in us in all of the connection between us of humans, yes, that we discover it in a complete way and a language is the end, it is the limit where we discover our vessels in a way that they can show all the borders all the discernments in them we perceive the Upper light and in it is revealed in us between all the partitions and all the connections and all the distances between us and this is how we discover all the lights and they all clothe in us and that's the complete attainment we want to happen.

S. We always learned that whatever accumulates is something that was taken from the ancient language so my question is that should we not learn the language of Kabbalah directly which is made for the last generation and interpret all and that this language doesn't need all the previous languages if a person starts an introductory courses and after a few months, why do we need all these languages that the big group learned once and bring it through the natural development of the group?

R. But we do learn the language of Kabbalah. We don't learn anything else besides that. We learn the language of Kabbalah meaning how we receive the revelation of godliness in a gradual way according to how much we can connect our qualities to it. Our qualities are the connections between us, the more we connect and as much as we try to perform such a connection between us that inside it we discover the Creator.

S. Thanks Rav, that's the answer, that we need to learn the language of Kabbalah in the last generation

R. Ultimately that's what we do.

S. Ok, that’s the answer. Thank you.

R. Thank you.

5. S. (23:04) We learned that Baal HaSulam and Rabash used the language of legends a lot in their letters, an article of Rabash about the group or the article of Arvut, an article of Baal HaSulam, they reveal the things those laws of behavior and what language is that?

R. That's all part of the language of the branches. That’s all part of language, of the branches and I hope that we will start feeling these things the moment we go into a spiritual feeling then we will discover how much all these things are connected together. It's not for no reason that first the language of the Bible the language of the legends, the language of the law, and then the language of Kabbalah, that's how our development requires it's not only our development it's of the entire humanity together which is more and more gathering towards the revelation of the Creator.

6. S. (24:41) In my experience before I came to the organization I remember that I talked with a Turkish Jew Rabbi and I asked him some questions about Kabbalah and he told me that who are you that you will understand, why do you have to study Torah, you have to study Talmud, you have to study Halacha, and I was really despaired and I see that still this religious opinions exist in this generation, generation of Kabbalah, so how should we approach this, what can you say about this matters?

R. It is written that a person only learns in the place his heart desires, and this is why each one goes according to his heart ultimately. If one can learn according to the heart's desire a person really realizes himself. I couldn't be like the people, the ordinary religious people, even though I had questions every time there. How you can't, how you can. There were many people that came to me and they wanted to straighten me up according to the line that exists in ordinary people and I couldn't be like ordinary people, I wanted to attain something beyond that and I couldn't agree to close up some of my qualities and to become like a person, like someone in the street, no, I couldn't. That's why this is how it happened. Some people they don't require anything just tell them what to do in order to succeed and they'll do it that's most of the people 99% of humans will do what society tells them, but 1% still will go and develop according to the desire their own heart and some of these people also come to the wisdom of Kabbalah. They won't agree to be like everyone else going by the following of the herd, like one cow goes all the other cows follow, there's no question there. why? No one asks why, she's walking, so it's walking we walk with it, the main thing is that someone walks and after there's a way to follow. So we have to come to a state where each one will try to express his free choice, free choice, and by that each one will be aimed at the personal individual connection of his with the Upper force and he will come to the purpose of his life.

7. S. (28:24) We learned that language is communication between the Creator and the creation, and these four languages are a language that we receive light, spiritual information from above downward but is there another important language, another form of communication from below upward? A language of prayer? Are there some certain laws in that language and something that we can organize in the most suitable way in that form of communication?

R. First of all of prayer is truly communication from below upwards and there were times that each one would turn to the Creator in his own address, in his own prayer, in his own words and later the people of the Knesset the Gedolah organized for us a Siddur, a prayer book, when according to that book we can all of us turn to the Creator and ask and to speak in the right way in the general way for everyone and still the prayer is called the work of the heart and if a person knows or doesn't know what his heart wants and how his heart turns to the Creator that this is basically the prayer this is the request of a person and his connection with the Creator and if we want to aim our heart to the Creator and connect from the heart then we will be called wise of the heart the sages of the heart and then we will truly have the right connection with the Creator.

S. If I want to describe this language to someone can I tell him that there are certain laws or is it enough to say that this is the language of the heart and that's it?

R. What situation are you talking about? Something that is written in the Siddur?

S. No, I'm talking about the language that the person should turn to the Upper force?

R. That's his language his attitude but in that you read articles, letters, of Baal HaSulam and Rabash, in that your read Talmud Eser Sefirot, the study of the ten Sefirot, or the Book of Zohar, so when you read those things you pray, you direct your heart to the Creator.

S. Is it possible to describe the laws of this language so that we can describe it to people who don't know how to do?

R. How would it help you if you tell them laws? They wouldn't know how to manage emotions, the heart, so what does it give if you write to them how they need to speak? The main thing is that when we turn to the Creator we can organize our thoughts and desires, our intentions to the Creator such that we would be in a certain equivalence of form with him.

8. S. (32:36) There's one more way of communication and that's here in the lesson to ask the teacher questions so I wanted to ask something about that if I'm a I'm really scared to ask questions because sometimes your answers are like an arrow straight into my heart, now I just heard from another friend he's also scared he has also many questions but he's afraid to ask them what can I say to such a friend?

R. Leave him alone he still needs to grow so cook with it a bit.

9. S. (33:28) Baal HaSulam writes in one of his letters that ...

R. Yes, that's Ohr Hassadim the light of mercy, the light of bestowal.

10. S. (33:56) I would like to ask the language as a means to pass on the method to reach the quality of bestowal. Years ago you told us that the wisdom of Kabbalah this language is more for the physicians, the doctors that will heal the world in the future, but I'd like to ask about today's dissemination, should we take the wisdom of Kabbalah and make it simpler or maybe to develop a new language?

R. We need to elevate humanity to the level of the language and not to lower the language to the degree of humanity. That's impossible, to elevate humanity to the height of the language because language is connection between us and the Creator and then we will know how to heal everything.

S. What is that bridge that we seemingly need to make? How can one make this bridge?

R. That is called I am for my beloved and my beloved is mine, on our bestowal to the Creator we will reach a state where that is language, language is connection between us, between us and with the Creator.
