Baal HaSulam - Peace in the World (Practical Difficulties in Determining the Truth)

Reader “Practical difficulties in determining the truth”

37. R. Indeed, it is not a simple question. The Creator created the created beings and an environment in which they exist in this environment. As we feel ourselves as existing in this world, we feel that together with us in this world are created beings which are all like the still, the whole universe. We don't understand it whether we feel it or not. There's a vegetative on planet Earth and perhaps on other places in the universe, too; the animate, which also exists next to us, and perhaps also elsewhere in the universe. On the speaking level are we and who knows, maybe there are other types that could be attributed, related to the speaking species, it’s unknown. They all exist according to certain rules, certain laws that the Creator, the common force of nature, the upper Force, God (in Gematria, equal to Nature), it determined. So the question is why are there, here, in the laws that we exist in, in the system; why is there something that extends the law that goes beyond the law, that there is something that can be good or bad, maybe it is maybe it is not, it is working not in a clear way as it should be in nature. It is as if there is this white spot here, where things can be this way or that way and there are doubts, good, bad...Why is it built like that? It is unclear. We learn that the Creator created it on purpose, creating this unknown spot, a blurry white spot that is unknown that we exist within so that we would want, with all of the means at our disposal, that He gave us so that we, by ourselves, will build the conditions, the country, the society, the world, the Galaxy, the way He would have created but left it for us, seemingly. So, we have to learn what qualities He gave us. What qualities He didn’t give us? Precisely by the qualities not given to us and He did give us, by them we will be able to look for what the Creator means. What He wants, what is missing in order to complement creation, instead of Him, where we complete creation. In this way we can come to a state where the Creator begins creation, and we compliment and complete creation. By this, we attain completely his desire, his ability, the forces that operate, the system that needs to, in short everything. It is interesting how he made it, a part of creation emerged, and a part didn't. It emerges in such a way that we can use all of the parts that he designed for us and says use it, in order to make creation and complete it in the most solid, complete, internal way. This is what we have to do and that complementing, haShlemah, from that comes the word Shalom, Peace, completeness is the name of the Creator it comes from that word: completion. Which is why this article is called by this name. Therefore, in our world specifically we are operated not by forces that are clear to us. There is this still, vegetative, and animate and in them everything runs by instinct, everything is clear, there are no questions. There is bad there is good, this way or that way, but we have something in between, it is unclear what is good or what is bad, it's not this, it's not that. This is why we are in constant doubt, questions, uncertainty and blurriness. This is what Baal HaSulam wants to explain to us in this article, Peace in the World.

Reader “When we discuss the attributes in theory...”(06:17 - 07:26)

38. R. Let us think how good it would be if everything were clear, he writes elsewhere. If I ate something that was bad I would choke; if I did something good I would succeed in front of everyone, more than everyone, but we don't understand in advance what is good and what is bad so I don't know what to do. It is a wonder why we operate unlike plants or animals. I don't actually run away from this and move toward that, animals don't need laboratories to check if something is good or bad like food, it is enough for them to sniff or taste it. Plants know what is bad for them or what is not, when to close up or when to open themselves. Man knows nothing. He was born in this way, he lives in this way where he doesn't understand and doesn't know anything, he needs constant support from everything, from other people, from the environment. He himself even when he is a grown up he is in constant doubt he doesn't know where to go. We see people among us also there are people who came and suddenly they leave and they come back again and they don't know what to do, we are in between several forces there is no one force operating in us. We know that this is how we should work and how it should go, mindlessly. I want to be like a soldier, to get up and do nature's commands and I don't have a choice and I do them. No, it's not like that, we have to constantly be in doubt and we have to grow wiser all the time and that way advance. This is why he says that the drawback is that this quality is not accepted by the collective, the quality of Truth. Thus, the practical difficulty in the above-mentioned truth is proven, from itself, that there is some drawback and a cause that makes it unacceptable to the collective. We must examine what is the drawback why can't we accept to receive the quality of Truth...

Reader ”When you closely examine the above-mentioned truth...”(10:17 - 11:07)

39. R. In other words if we speak truthfully everyone should be equal everyone should be in one line following everything like ants. We don't know exactly what happens inside their structures, their nest but that is how we are no one looks at ants how much they work or how much they don't, it is irrevocable instincts that everyone does what they should do and no one looks at the other it is a very clear example of how the society should work if it is to work according to the truth.

Reader “But how do we think that we can scrutinize....” (11:53 - 12:27)

40. R. In other words if we start pressing the collective and manage it equally from above that also would not be good. If this necessity, to give everything that I can if it doesn't come from within and it is in me this necessity, then from above they can't pressure me this way because none of us is equal to the others. For example, one is smarter than I am so it will be easier for him to do some jobs. If I am stronger than him, so for me it would be easier to do other jobs. A third person is quicker, he does things very quickly and me by the time I understand and do it, it takes time. So no one is the same as others and therefore we can't demand from above the same productivity from each one.

Reader “Moreover there is an evident lie here...” (13:38 - 15:43)

41. S. How can we scrutinize this truth in a way that it is accepted? Everyone's talking all day but they're not listening. It goes in one ear and out the other and you're saying that the creator has started creation and we have to complete creation. It sounds impossible. Impossible.

R. I don't know, again here, you and I are disputed. I am saying that although I see everything in front of me the way that it is I have to do whatever work I am given. The Creator gave me work. He said take this and I have to take it and do it and not ask, but the reward is that he gave me work, that is the reward and I don't ask when it will be over. I have to rather check what I do only from the perspective of how best to do my job, I don't ask anything beyond that, otherwise it won't be in order to bestow.

S. When will it end, when can we start seeing signs?

R. I don't want to see signs, it would be a reward.

S. Signs are a reward?

R. Yes, you bet. I want to get up the same way in the morning for a thousand more years and not see anything, but just have one ounce of desire from which I begin to develop my correct desire and approach to the new day.

S. On the other hand we want the world to be good and we want people to start learning something?

R. Correct, this is why I get up. Tell your guys about this.

S. You say I should come in the morning and do my work in front of the people like yesterday to participate with four thousand people and in the end not to want anything, I just want to come and sit and connect?

R. You want to do the desire of the Upper One, you want to observe it, why is this not enough for you?

S. What is the Upper One's desire?

R. It is for you to work in order to bestow without asking why, like an ant.

S. So like you're saying in the morning and the workshop, you say guys you come here, you are “giving up on the billion dollars,” we don’t want anything?

R. Yes, precisely. So you can ask how you're given a chance, you go into the ten and are you acquiring the power to “relinquish the billion dollars” and not just in order to take pride in the eyes of others, but you work in the society and you draw the reforming light which will give you such greatness of the Creator that will be greater than a billion dollars, to bestow upon the Creator will be worth more.

S. According to what you say it can really be attained?

R. If you were given a ten without the creation of the soul and the breaking of the soul then you can't do it, but once you have the soul ,and the breaking you can do it, this is why Rabbi Akiva was so happy that the First Temple and Second Temple were ruined, meaning both in light of Hochma and in light of Hassadim everything broke, now we have a way to build it.

S. The question now is when we see the end of this?

R. You don't need to see the end, I want to get up this way, to the end of days, an infinite number of years and days just like that I want to start from 0 to infinite greatness of the Creator and nothing else.

S. Without correcting the world ?

R. This is the correction, what other question do you want?

S. That people will learn Kabbalah that they will learn how to bestow.

R. Yes that's what it's about.

42. S. (21:00) You're speaking about ants and the living degree. It seems like all animals are living in pleasantness and the Creator left humans expecting us to bump into one another and in some way find this method and go towards Him?

R. Right now you said it correctly. It depends on Him. Therefore each and everyone at the time when he should, he finds the method and begins to work according to this method. As it happened with you for example. It is the same for everyone.

S. What about the other 8 billion?

R. It is not time yet the corruption hasn't fully materialized but you will see it will happen and everyone will wake up as Baal HaSulam writes in his prophecy. This little one will be great and they will all rise and they will all reach that same recognition and awareness of the greatness of the Creator like everyone. As it is written, “They should all know me, from the least of them to the greatest of them.” This is what we are beginning to build now. This system that we, you, I, everyone, we have to pull all of humanity to the Creator and bring everyone to Him so that we will all embrace Him and unite with Him without any differences between us and him.

S. So we are expecting this huge state for everybody?

R. We're not waiting, we are doing it, it depends upon you and me, on us. We will do it.

43. S. (23:15) Nature around us is all in bestowal it was given to us so that we can learn something from nature around us?

R. Yes, how the still vegetative and animate work instinctively and how we, who should reach the degree of Truth and now we will learn it is not that simple to reach the degree of Truth but through preliminary other forms. We come to the degree of Truth and sustain it or keep it with faith just as the still, vegetative and animate keep it instinctively.

44. S. (24:09) You said that we work in order to awaken the world through dissemination?

R. Yes.

S. But do we need to be cautious to make certain we won't make a mistake that we don't harm, we're not professionals. Maybe our deeds and actions can harm and dissemination to the public?

R. No, we can't make mistakes, we just continue the way Baal HaSulam and Rabash write to go as we go and even though it seems like you're making a mistake you're not. In retrospect you will see the Creator made you make this mistake because by your mistake you also corrected something, revealed something that was broken and this is how it happens. Don't worry if we go together the Creator watches over each and every one of us and over the whole system and reveals to us each day a little more and a little more of how we should advance. I feel it on myself that I am not doing what I want, but that it is dictated to me from Above and that is how I work, that is what I do. I get up, I come to the lesson I have nothing of myself, I feel that this is how I am being directed and that’s it and I am just obligated.

45. S. (25:54) You say we have to start from scratch each time. How do we begin from scratch if he didn't have anything to begin with?

R. Ideally you should get up in the morning and see that you have nothing, not the Creator and not the wisdom of Kabbalah, not the group. The alarm clock goes off, what do I need to do and why do I need to do it, what do I get out of it, how come? What am I going crazy, what is happening here? We begin to a new degree from zero, it is the opposite. We have to fall from where we were, so your zero is not the zero of a person who just came and started learning, your zero is far lower and this is how it will be each time, you will get used to it and you will see precisely this way this how you correct creation.

46. S. (27:16) In a corrected humanity, the lazy will work in our day and the quick will work 10 to 12 hours a day and it will be accepted?

R. You are terrified and scared, each one will work as much as he can give according to his physiological and psychological conditions, yes.

S. If I can't do it in an hour because I'm lazy and 1 hour is not enough to sustain my family but that's my physiological ability?

R. That's different, because now you're talking about the reward. You shouldn't get the reward according to what you do but what you do is according to your internal and natural conditions with which the Creator created you. Let's say naturally I am not strong, physically I'm not strong you can see it on me. So how can I be strong like the other who is, or one who is smarter. That Godly system that created me this way requires me to be precisely in my place of work within the common vessel, to be there in my place and do my duty and not more.

47. S. (29:04) The speaking level of man is this a kind of spiritual robot?

R. No, not at all you have the freedom of choice, you have it all just your general destiny you don't determine that. That is determined by the root of your soul but it is understood because if it is a general system entirely and it is clear and discreet everything is in the right place, so how can it be that you are just wondering according to your spirits, no. You have to do and it is for your own good, you have to do or fulfill your destiny in your state and also in your destined time.

48. S. (30:12) This whole concept of competition that forces you to develop according to your environment, how does it work if you are only working towards yourself according to your ability? What is the role of the environment in aiding to extend one’s personal abilities?

R. The environment is also in the hands of the Creator, everything is, we just have to try and subdue ourselves.

S. Those people who work in society, if they examine what they receive is only according to what they are, they will have no motivation to grow and develop because they are weaker than others but they have to achieve more. We are living in a competitive world that forces us to move because we see that others are getting more than we are, and if I don't feel it then I get according to my abilities and it is enough, I'm not advancing, I don't force myself to extend my own limits.

R. That is the whole point. Why does Baal HaSulam write this article, how can we determine to ourselves a system of relationships, such a corporeal society that can give each and every one a place to implement themselves in corporeality, and in spirituality. That it will all be one whole, that is what he writes about. Not each and everyone will receive the same thing in corporeality because, for example, I need to eat 10 kilos a day and someone else is a special person who only eats 1 kilo a day. Without all the philosophy, let’s advance and you will understand.

Reader “Thus you find that the attribute of truth...” (32:44 - 34:33)

49. R. This is how the will to receive dictates that the whole world came to serve me...

Reader “In simple words we will say that the nature...” (34:43 - 35-17)

50. R. Not even when we bestow good to one another, still we want to exploit the others with that.

Reader “The reason for this is that the nature of every branch...” (35:29 - 36:01)

51. R. Meaning where do I get this feeling that I'm special, that I'm even an individual in the world and all the rest are below me? That comes from the Creator, that feeling, the fact that I think and look like that everybody in a certain way is my internal point. It is a Divine part from above because the Creator is above all creation than that same part of the Creator that is in me puts me above all humans in such a way and all of creation. There's a lot of questions from here, is this good or is it bad, should I do something about it, maybe that is the only point in me from the Creator?

Reader “The only difference is in people's choices...” (36:52 - 39:43)

52. R. I really hope that you will read this in every opportunity you have, to read it a few more times, this part of the article Peace In The World. There is a lot of material here that we need to take and stretch and pull in all directions and speak about it a lot. We will answer a few questions now as much time as we have left, but just understand that it won't satisfy you. Because here, it is really more about the inner work that a person has to think increasingly more or discuss in the ten and workshops in between you and then you have and it will be a lot more clear and you will be able to understand this better. These are things that we need to scrutinize, not the teacher with the students but between the friends more.

53. S. (40:53) The law of singularity in man's heart that Baal HaSulam just spoke about, how does a person convert this law of singularity in his heart towards the state of “the whole world was created for me”?

R. That is what we will have to learn, now we still haven’t solved this problem. As he just explained that the same Creator who created us actually gave each one an obstacle, that we can't connect to one another. Because in each and everyone there is a part of the Creator, a special part of the Creator. That is why each one can't accept the other one, that we can't connect with one another because we are all contradicting one another. And the whole system if it can exist correctly, so it has to exist as if only one force is activating it. Like in the still vegetative and animal, then there is no problem it doesn't make mistakes. You can't say that a beast makes mistakes. As for man you can say that he constantly makes mistakes and every time he learns a bit from it, but it is nothing for its next step. The next step he falls again and makes another mistake, and again. Meaning what he did in the past he corrected it by falling and rising, falling and getting up. But for the next time he has to fall again and get up again. It is written about that, one thousand times a righteous will fall and get up. If so, how can we, that we are billions that fall and rise, again and again, how can we connect between us in such a system, such a reality that is whole. How can we even ask about such a thing about an ability, and opportunity, there is no such thing. This is actually our state, and you understand as much as success is impossible, everything was sold in advance. What will be, that is what you're asking about? So I have hope that we will read this later. That by the quality of Truth you can't rule the world because we don't have that truth, everyone has his own truth and it contradicts the truth of everyone else. So how we have to connect that nature is pressing upon us to connect, so how can we not harm each other and maybe change ourselves so that we can connect with one another and complete one another. To such an extent that we will connect and be at love to one another that each one will serve the others. Here is where we still have to check, how do we build such a system from the Creator. From nature this doesn't come, on the contrary it is all a mess we are in a state where each one can only kill the others and has no attitude towards the other but only as an enemy. How can we, instead of this, reach a state that we love each other? That each one is willing to die for the other, to connect to such a state that we complete each other. That, we still need to see how the Creator prepares such a correction. That we start to implement it we start understanding as much as these things are huge. Completely.

54. S. (45:31) The Creator is a system that is built already and it makes its own calculations, on one hand. On the other hand, and we see that there are friends who leave the group, maybe even harder examples from the outside world where the system, the general system brings people into drugs, suicide. We know that the system is good and does good but it manifests in different ways in people. So who gets access to the system, only those who study Kabbalah or it depends on the root of the Soul?

R. It depends on the root of the Soul. Each one will gradually reach the realization of the root of his soul and it all exists in the system and the system determines everything. As he says, the Creator puts the angel before a person with a certain letter and if that letter doesn't settle in, so he changes it. Anyway, It does not depend upon us. What does depend upon us is if we come to a group and we have the freedom of choice. So in what is our freedom of choice as Baal HaSulam explains in the article The Freedom, only in that. So don't run to all kinds of places to try and see what I can change, you can only change in what belongs to your freedom of choice, only.

55. S. (47:39) To ask about the term truth that Baal HaSulam uses?

R. I will tell you in one word what truth is: instinct. Still, vegetative and animate exist according to their instincts. This is why they do not make mistakes. A man does not have instincts, meaning an inner impulse that directs him correctly, that is why he is always in a question.

S. So, instinct, basically, is satisfaction in the will to receive? That's what I want and if I get it is good, if I don’t get it it is not good?

R. Correct. Sometimes we see that it also happens to the animals. Let's say that they are sick we see what happened to the cat, why can’t it jump, did it made a mistake, is it because it's sick, but actually, the instincts in the still vegetative and animate: that is what they have instead of the truth, for them the truth is an instinct that directs them correctly.

S. For a long time I didn't understand what he's talking about, because in our world, in our terms, truth is a fact as it is, someone tells me something and if it is as he said and I say it's true and if it's not as he says I say it's a lie.

R. Here, you are speaking about the laws of nature, not what you think, or someone else. These are the laws of nature. We don't know how to determine our actions because we don't see the law, that law doesn't work in us. If this law would work in us so I would call it an instinct, and from not having an instinct, I am in a lack, everything is vague and I do whatever I want or what I hear from others, that is why I am constantly in mistakes.

56. S. (50:30) Today politicians have the power and the public wants to be a part of them, in the future will Kabbalists rule or will Kabbalists direct?

R. In the future the whole nation will be in control, will be the leaders, because they will feel that only the Upper Force that the nation as a group invites the Creator to be revealed in them, that is how the Nation will be in control. In short the Creator will be in control under the conditions that the lower ones invite him to rule over all. That He will be the King.

57. S. (51:36) Not everyone has the same forces and ability, we won't be required to do the same efforts or works, so will everyone have to go through the path and become Kabbalists?

R. In somewhat yes, but not in the way like we are because we have to know the whole system and include all and pull the Creator in there and organize it so it will be like one ten, this is us called Yashar Kel, Israel, the rest will join into us and upon them the same forces of the Creator will be in control of the law of equality, equivalence of form, of bestowal, love that will control everybody but they won't need to implement it in such a way like we, they will just go in there and do it. It will be easier because they can't according to the root of their soul do the difficult work like we do it all depends upon the root of the soul but in the end the Creator covers all and fills all and expands all equally.

58. S. (53:14) How do we tell the outside world about the just society of the future?

R. We have to know how to tell it, go into our system, learn and there are people also that teach how to do this.

59. S. (53:39) Baal HaSulam probably wrote this for the general public, not for his closest disciples?

R. Let us say so.

S. Among your students, what obligation do your students have to convey and explain to the world?

R. We will learn this whole article, we will speak about it, how we can process this to the general public. Obviously this is not enough as here he is speaking in a very concrete way and for the general public you have to mix it up and divide it into many portions and then to learn how to convey it to them. Do you have little kids?

S. Yes, I do.

R. Do you shove a big spoon in their mouths or a teaspoon and then a bit more and a bit more?

S. They're grown-ups already.

R. You remember how it used to be this is how you have to give it to the public, just like that.

S. In the work in the ten, how do we use the quality of truth in our work?

R. Each one gives as much as they can to support in their forces as much as possible and the Creator according to that will fill us.

60. S. (55:42) Are you satisfied and pleased with us or do you need to add?

R. Everyday, I give gratitude to the Creator for giving me such students. Every day I love the Creator more because every day I discover how special you are.
