Baal HaSulam. The Freedom (A Path of Torah and a Path of Suffering)

Subtitle: A Path of Torah and a Path of Suffering (twice)

Subtitle: The Collective’s Right to Expropriate the Freedom of the Individual

1.R. (03:35) We have very principal questions here about the management of the nation, the country, the world, who to follow. Maybe a small part of the nation can control the other parts, must a person agree to what goes against him, or should he bend himself and accept the view of the public, not only subjugating forcefully, here it is as if Torah obligates us. If you are against, you have to change yourself and be in favor. What is this all about, in what way are we connecting between us so that on the one hand, we are becoming connected. On the other hand, we are keeping all the multiple views, desires, history, of each and every one in order to bring us all to the corrected vessel of Adam HaRishon, corrected with all its intensity and not that each one will annul himself to all of the others, and what would we have then. Here, we are examining what Torah is requiring. It is telling us that this is the way we should do it.

Reader continues: “as we have shown in the second tractate….”

2. S. (08:14) What is the division that Baal HaSulam is referring to here between the society and the connection with the Creator?

R. There is a society under the laws of society and this is in a level that society can maintain and guard itself, bit by bit to raise itself to a spiritual degree. Some laws are about the correction of the soul, they are higher in a spiritual level where our behavior should be different and more special.

S. When does this division happen because we work in a society to reach this connection?

R. In order to reach but we're not in it and that's why we need to bit by bit elevate ourselves to a level.

S. It's not two states at once?

R. Well, how can you understand that the future of human society whether we want it or not, by the stages to advance but it will certainly advance to a whole connection between everyone. If this is correct how can we talk about it and tell all human beings if you start talking about it they will think you are a communist or delusional. What are you talking about, living in a commune where everyone is connected by love that no one seemingly has a personal life. Can you tell people about it, can you do this today? Of course not, it has to be an internal correction. When the Russians wanted to do that, how did they do it, by the KGB and they saw it was impossible, they thought by pressure and fear that they can do that. This is completely against what the wisdom of Kabbalah is telling us, that we have to connect that is correct, that we have to be as one man and one heart, that is correct. We have to get rid of all of the personal assets. Everything is correct because we have to care only about the soul as bit by bit we are losing our corporeal part but that is according to your development, according to how much you are building an environment. How much the group becomes the entire humanity and how much the entire humanity starts understanding these things as higher things, as necessity and the only thing that you need to yearn for is that, certainly it doesn't go together corporeally and spiritually. This is why we have to act on both levels.

S. The Creator does use these KGB methods it seems, because if we don't want to advance on our own part he has other methods in due time.

R. That's not exactly true, it's called the path of suffering and it is not that you're about to acquire a higher degree and so this higher degree opens necessarily and then you feel the negative effects because you're not ready for it. Then it is as if you have come from first grade to second grade but that you haven't concluded the first one and you're not yet ready for the second grade. What is revealed is revealed in a way that you feel bad as you're not in the right place. It is because you have not attained the right preparation for the second degree and you are going through all kinds of states that you must correct yourself to the second grade. Whereas the Russians did not take that into account in our world, when we only act by force we don't have the upper light by which we can correct the person. We can forcefully act from below, not from the light that bestows from above. So what they did is they ruined it all as they thought they could forcefully do horrible things that they did. This is why until today this is felt in Russia. This is why we have to understand that only by the light that reforms, that appears by the study of Torah in the right way in the group, according to the development of a person we draw the light that reforms and he already makes corrections in us and according to the corrections we advance. In spirituality you can't go into a state that you want, you can only go into a state that you are ready for, meaning correct for. The equivalence of form has to be between the vessel of Adam and the light of the Creator, this is how they should appear in each and every degree, on the ladder of degrees.

S. In the connection that we do in the light that we draw, how does this allow humanity to be ready for the next degree?

R. We are part of humanity and the more that we connect in correct ourselves and feel more and more the changes in us, these changes go not because of us but due to the upper light that bestows on us. Bit by bit we are ready for more internal connections that we are in already but we just don't feel them practically and there is a difference between potentially and actually. Potentially we are in spirituality, theoretically we are there already but actually in practice we can't yet act. That’s how we will advance.

S. In these states that we are potentially there, how does this help humanity to advance and want to get to the next degree?

R. We are part of humanity, we have no opportunity to run away from our role and we must simply see that what we do, we do in order to correct humanity. Just like he writes to us in the article of Arvut and a few other places as it is explained by Baal HaSulam and Rabash. Our main role is to worry for humanity and to bring it to connection as ultimately in sum total we are Israel, those who are yearning to the Creator because we received the point in the heart from Him. Meaning the capability to yearn and then we reach some connection with Him and we must carry after us all of humanity and we have no choice. We must show all of humanity what is the path and to be the leaders despite that that is not simple but it is an obligation. Like he writes, the nation of the past, meaning Israel, straight to the Creator, those who have such a desire does not depend on nationality or skin color, those who must recognize this and bring themselves to the correct role and to be this transition between the entire world and the Creator. Actually this is like ZaATof Bina, the lower part of Bina, the upper part of Bina belongs to Keter Hochma Bina but the lower part of Bina is already the transition of those parts of GAR, Keter Hochma Bina to ZA and Malchut so we are with you like ZAT of Bina that we must be connected on one hand to the upper forces, to the Creator and on the other hand to the desires of the lower ones of ZON and to see in this our role. We must simply be obligated to everyone, both humanity and the Creator as this is our work, our place and our role and we hope that we fulfill it.

3. S. (19:26) It says we should consider freedom of the individual and then it says that when it comes to Torah and Mitzva we should consider the collective that this is for everybody, so who do we consider the individual or the collective?

R. Both this and that, it is up to us to take it into account and to know how to work with the individual in the meantime is only between us and to work with the general is our work in the dissemination of the wisdom of Kabbalah to the entire world, to the extent that they are willing and capable of digesting and accepting it.

4. S. (20:30) I want to thank you for last night, people were amazed, the feedback was fantastic. It is written that the dispute in the matter of Mitzvot between man and the Creator are about the right of the society to exist. Can you explain this?

R. In this that you connect with the Creator, you can disconnect from the society and so here there must be a correct arranged system from all of the ten Sefirot from the GAR of the degree through the ZAT of the degree, ZAT of Bina, to the ZAT of the degree, we will speak about this how we will arrange all of these connections in the correct manner.

S. Why should there be a dispute between the man and the Creator?

R. The dispute results from the lack of our corrections, of course there's no dispute that the entire world in its corrected form is an entirely round world both according to the vessel and the light but the dispute is in the meantime, in the time when we are making corrections.

5. S. (22:17) You just talked about our part in the system in our duty to take care of the correction of the world and this obligates us to connect more. I think this is felt better, but the manner of the explanation to the world, I feel that it is really unclear, in what dissemination is, the explanation to the world is, for two reasons. First of all, as you said it's very hard to find the words, without being heard as if we are religious or some fantasy that we are selling. The second reason is that only a small number of people are in charge of this explanation, only the writers that meet you. Most of us can only just press the links or share them, so it’s really not clear what we can do in this part?

R. You need to learn how to do it and what to do and to do it. I can't answer you now in just a few minutes. Get into the system of dissemination and see how much we can connect the spiritual Godly part with the corporeal Nation. How much on the way here we need to make these degrees of descent, the diminishment of the idea and so on. As usual, like every science don't think that we can awaken humanity in excitement. They won't get excited but they will get excited if they are lacking food money family honor respect knowledge, their life is becoming harder and harder and then we need to see how according to their concerns, their worries within their worries we stream our answers so they will begin to understand what is the root of their problems and how to rise above it. There is nothing new here.

S. I tried to hear the writers' meetings and when you hear it you really get at least an emotion, a feeling of pressure and concern. Maybe we can find a way of how we can incorporate a part of the lesson as I'm not certain how many friends in the world Kli are a part of it. The problems of the world are felt but what to do with it, this is not clear.

R. If I tell you that it is really clear to me, that is also not true. if it was clear to Baal HaSulam or Rabash, or the Kabbalists also no. There are things that the Creator conceals from the created beings, even the unique created beings that are clothed in the Creator and it is written about that, what the mind doesn't do, time does, that we must perform what is up to us as much as we understand and the Creator will complete for me in each and every action there is a part that you leave for the Creator's action and the Creator finishes it. But with respect to the writer's meetings, you're right. I recommend for everyone to hear them and maybe even to make a file out of it and advertise it.

6. S. (26:26) Humanity itself, can it affect its own development?

R. No, humanity can only suffer but from within this there's no point in the heart as there is in each and every one of us, it's not in connection with the Godly system and thus it is not capable only from the suffering to reach the solution because there is nothing that ties between the suffering and the point of the heart and so only we must be here in the middle and that is the role called the nation of Israel.

7. S. (27:32) Is the majority that is undeveloped and the minority that is developed, does it happen in the 10 in Bnei Baruch or only in the general society?

R. We accept all the people who want to learn the wisdom of Kabbalah, the method of revelation of the Creator to the created beings in this world, we open the door to everyone. We want to advertise what we know about the purpose of creation, but the purpose of man also to everyone and we have no limitation on this as Baal HaSulam writes, it is equal to all. The difference is that the person determines how much he has a deficiency, a desire, a yearning and accordingly he enters and progresses or maybe does not enter at all. This is what we need to perform, to build such systems of entrance to us from all sorts of directions that everyone can come close, can come near. Don't look at each individual, what somebody is doing and some group, all sorts of groups sprouting, “studying the wisdom of Kabbalah”, “spirituality”, we need to learn according to our method from Baal HaSulam and Rabash. What will happen is already from above.

S. Do our tens also divide into a part that is more divided and a majority that is less developed?

R. It can be that way it is true, but it is not the tens, because in any case there are those who are veterans, those who have a lot of experience on the path and those who are less experienced but with respect to the general vessel, I would say it is not important. The world belongs to the young, meaning as much as we have friends who are younger on the path that they are more important and we need to specifically advance them.

8. S. (30:37) What happened to Russia was a result of what? Is there room to make mistakes here?

R. I don't think we can be mistaken in this, the world already went through that point to learn that, it had to learn about communism that was in Russia and along with all the rest of the methods that were in all different places, in suppression of man's nature in a manner like it was in Russia. I think this time has already passed and now before us there is truly an opportunity to progress by the scrutiny in the society, meaning as much as we connect and scrutinize these matters we will correctly advance.

9. S. (31:49) The world belongs to the young people, how do we collect all the young people in Bnei Baruch and what is their role?

R. Youth means by the spirit, not necessarily the age and this is how we need to see it, it is written about this, what to do with kids who have grown old, yes they are still kids but they have grown old and the opposite could be. We need to advance, to be able to build systems for them that they will enter and incorporate and we need to expand our dissemination that we will reach states that even people who have a desire or deficiencies for spiritual development that they should also incorporate with us. We need to search for the means. I turn here especially to the women that need here to enter with all of their force because the woman's nature that she gives birth and she cares and develops the next generation and spirituality also must be such. I think that we have time remaining for a workshop.

WSQ: What do we feel today different from yesterday by the event that we had yesterday evening?
