Becoming Global on the Inside
First of all
we have to change our paradigm, our outlook on life and the world. I have to change on the inside,
change the boot disk, renew my standard for evaluating myself, the world, and
society. Without changing man, we will not be able to change the world. After
all, the world is his copy.
Human nature
is the basis upon which society, environment, learning, culture, economy, and
all other spheres of activity are built. The world is an external projection of
what is concealed inside a person. Therefore, it is precisely man who needs to
be changed. All the efforts have to be concentrated precisely on this.
The problem
is not the economy, production, or education. Everything will normalize when
man changes. And for that he has to be educated. Education or upbringing is, in
essence, man's inner transformation. No external "stupes" will help.
Maybe this
idea should be presented to the UN, UNESCO, and governments, explaining that
our only objective is to change man. After all, without that he will not change
the world.
That is why
today humanity's best minds do not understand what to do and what to change. We
have entered a level that demands new, qualitative changes from us. From now on
we have to act in our world with the help of a quality called "guarantee." We
can only do it together. By yourself you won't achieve anything.
For example,
a person who opens up a business will discover that it is connected with all of
the businesses of the world and therefore they must also be taken into account.
Otherwise there won't be any success.
From here on
you cannot take one step without considering the common, global system. And
therefore, you have to be global and united with everyone yourself, on the
inside.
But I'm not
global. So what should I do? Could it really be that I will never see success
without that? True, I won't see it. This is an immutable law. Without an
integral interconnection you won't achieve success in anything. Take a look: We are already
immersing in a multi-crisis. And there is only one way out: to change
ourselves.
How can we
change? How can we reformat ourselves? How can we brainwash ourselves? How can
we de-install the old program and install a new one? After all, from now on I
have to have a common sensation and mind with everyone so my actions will
naturally correspond to the new state. My very nature has to change.
This can be
done by the "Light that reforms." People will discover it anyway. Maybe they
will do it by the path of great suffering, but there is no other way to go. You
have to change in order to change the world, and you have the means for that.
However, you have to get to that Light by means of the realization of evil in
order to understand what you lack, "I have to change!" But how do you know? And
how exactly should you change? Do you have a desire that's formed? Not yet.
That is why
you have been given a field in which to work (the group), a means (the science
of Kabbalah), and instructional advice (the teacher). Go ahead, act, start
becoming included in the system of guarantee, playing it in order to discover
the flaw that you have to correct. Then you will have something with which to
turn to the Light for correction.
You won't
even have to go anywhere: To the extent your desires become formed and
clarified, the Light will begin to act by itself. After all, you are inside of
it, and therefore it immediately works in conformity with your efforts. As soon
as you build something inside of you, the Light immediately influences you.
This way, gradually, you change even without seeing the little wheels that spin
inside of you.

Experts, Speak Out!
Question: It is very difficult to explain
to people that the solution to the burning problems lies in the interconnection
between people.
Dr. Laitman's Answer: No, it's not. After all, we are supported by many specialists-not
just theoretical physicists, but scientists who research nature and current
problems, including economists, politicians, sociologists, psychologists,
bankers, and representatives of large companies.
Today everyone is talking about the economy
because it is a connection between us: how much do you owe me and how much to I
owe you. This is not culture or art, religion or ethics. It is money, a precise
measuring device of our mutual bestowal. This is a net of the correct, egoistic,
healthy, solid connection between us. We have ruined it with our "bubbles," but
by itself it was surprisingly adequate.
And so, we have to explain to people that this
network is no longer working. And this has to be explained by the experts whom
we will attract-thousands of people who stand at the head of the world: bank
directors, corporate analysts, and so on. Let them talk while we will stand on
the sidelines. After them the word will be passed over to the scientists, and
then to representatives of the education system. Go ahead-take others and use
them.
That is how I see it happening today.
Question: The
average person will be curious to hear them out in his free time, but this is
still far away from his personal cares and the troubles he encounters in life.
Answer: There
is no other solution. We have to give time for the initial phase to transpire,
until we convince man that this is where the problem lies. In order to
understand the world's troubles, it is necessary to study what is happening.
It's like a sick person who "plows" through the internet searching for
information about his illness and the means to cure it. Thus, we only have to
give people a "link," a connecting cord between what is happening now and the
solution.
This task is incumbent on scientists, and we have
to act in this direction without any further delay. We will implant and
disseminate their, not our, explanations, which are weighty and well-founded.
In principle, we have to become an "advertising machine" that quickly brings
the rush of information from the experts to the masses. Without mentioning
ourselves, we will raise them in the ratings, publish them on sites, and
promote them on networks.
We don't even need our own portal. We don't want
to "win people over" to it from the territory they are used to. This is real
work on dissemination.
Question: what should a small person
understand from this who does not understand anything and eats whatever he is
fed? Is it enough to give him the message that together is good and apart is
bad?
Answer: Yes.
And a "big person" also has to understand just this. You're not really planning
to tell him about the altruistic intention Lishma, are you? He is not
ripe for this on the inside yet. It is written, "Raise a lad in his own way."
Question: Does
this mean that similar to the people who used Facebook as a means to force
manufacturers to lower prices on their products, we should simply push
governments to unite?
Answer: Yes.
We are looking for experts, those who not only understand the idea, but are
able to put together a working action and then to make it happen. There are
several million people in the world who would like to and are able to join this
work that will have to be carried out. This "army" only needs to be organized
to carry out the task.
In the meantime, we will remain behind the scenes.
Today we don't need the television anymore. After all, all of humanity is on
the internet already. That is the only way we will be able to organize
ourselves and that is what our dissemination enterprise will be doing as well.
These are the changes we have to start making now, without any further delay.
