The human experience of love and hate are determined through a part of the brain called the pleasure center. This small part works in the interest of the ego or the desire to receive and differentiates between pleasure or love and suffering or hatred. It is said that the feeling of hatred pushes us to communicate with the upper force and understand what He wants from us. Hatred is awakened in us so that we will eventually learn to look within and correct ourselves. We can change our negative, egoistic attitudes in such a way that we will see a good world full of love. Instead of being dominated by egoism, we can manage it by changing ourselves. The wisdom of Kabbalah teaches us how to correct ourselves in relation to the world. When we attribute everything to the upper force, we begin to understand that no one is hating or loving us. Instead, when we want to reach bestowal by giving to the world and the upper force, we realize that the whole system is taking care of us.

Paradoxes are resolved through awareness of the Creator. They come to me from one integrated source and I want to return them to this higher root. By working on myself to constantly be in bestowal and love, I discover the complementarity between opposites. The connection between good and evil is done only through transcendence to a third line, which unites the opposites. In spiritual development, we don’t destroy evil, or the ego. Instead, we transcend it because evil advances us. Human egoism is a destructive force, but if we construct a more advanced system of thought in which bestowal is more important than reception, it becomes a stimulus for spiritual development. The Torah encourages paradoxical thinking in order to elevate a person to a spiritual level. We can learn to love without eliminating hatred by rising above it.

There is nothing bad in the world. Everything that happens can be used for the positive advancement and development of humankind. When something happens that is not exactly what I want, it awakens resistance in me because it undermines my ego. In the wisdom of Kabbalah, a person encounters all kinds of resistance and this promotes his spiritual ascent. In order to correct ourselves, we must see others as emissaries of the upper force and learn how to absorb contrary opinions. We must see everyone as puppets of the Creator and behave as though we are relating to Him in every scene.

The results of the research in the wisdom of Kabbalah are beneficial to the whole of humanity because the Kabbalist opens a way for everyone to reach out to the Creator. The researcher is the material being studied because the Kabbalist studies the world within himself. In other words, he adapts himself to what is concealed from him and examines his behavior under the conditions he wishes to investigate. Furthermore, he himself is the ruler with which he measures how much the upper force dwells in him. Proof is attained when the researcher reaches and reveals the same level as his Kabbalistic predecessors did. The results of these historic experiments have been recorded in the writings of Kabbalah for 6,000 years. In general, the Kabbalist studies how the thought of creation is realized in him or how much he can resemble the Creator.

By nature, the person is a small, egoistic animal who does not see beyond the limits of his perception. Only after we transcend our nature and acquire the loving nature of the Creator can we investigate His providence over us. The wisdom of Kabbalah is based on experiments that a person conducts within himself after he transcends his egoistic nature. It investigates the hidden world that is not perceived in our five senses. The main research question is, “How do I discover the upper force in the maximum at every moment in my life?”
