Regarding the year 1995 when it was said the Kabbalah was made available to us, the lay person, were there any significant events that led up to this reveal?
Hi Annie,
Yes, Rav Laitman wrote about it in one of his blog posts, here’s an excerpt:
“Question: You said that 1995 was the starting point of the current events. What happened in 1995 that you are referring to?
My Answer: I felt this because suddenly, the students that started coming to study with me were different: They were serious, diligent, and persistent in their pursuit of the goal. Today they still make up the core of the worldwide Bnei Baruch group. Of course, there were also inner changes that are concealed from the average onlooker – a clearer revelation of new spiritual forces in the world.”

There is 5 levels of Spiritual worlds.
So my question is does this 5 levels are connected with 5 levels of the soul?
Text sed that there were durning away from Kabbalah to philosophy.As l understand all religions are based on philosophy, mysticism,humanism etc,but still consist spiritual knowledge.
Did the Greator personally intervene and mix in Kabbalah wisdom so that the people would have the will to return back to Greator?
Hi Anu,
1. Yes the 5 spiritual worlds are connected with the 5 levels of the soul.
2. Kabbalah is not a philosophy or a religion, it’s a practical scientific method based on the research of the Kabbalists.

Could you explain more about the connection between the ‘Roots’ in the Upper World and the ‘Branches’ in our world?
Hi Olqama,
The spiritual world is the root of our corporeal world. Meaning that everything that happens in this world is a result of the spiritual forces acting upon it. As such, by connecting to that spiritual root, a Kabbalist can understand why things are the way they are in this world, how these forces shaped our reality in the past, and what awaits us in the future.

On the topic of realising our egoistc nature is the root of all evil in this world and actually seeing that in a real life situation, how do we go from there, beacuse if we need to see the detruction our ego causes how do we heal and trasnform to a new state of being that is more loving so we dont have to go through it again? And how do we heal the situation we hurt, for example trust, safety, honour? i hurt somebody and i want to restore the connection and trust so they will feel safe again, and I also realease i need to change… but how
Because i see that my egos desire is selfish and even when i understand that its way is wrong i cant resist it it seems, i mean gradually yes iahve but not enough it seems. Im starting to feel a need for a permanaent change because i dont want to ruin my the situation im trying to build in life and maybe thats even from the ego but i am desperate to grow now, im seriosly done with this chaper of my life.
I dont know if its good that i feel helpless because i know that its only Hashem that could ” fix me”
Hi Yeabsera,
It’s indeed good to feel how much we need the Creator’s help. The system is such that without His help, it’s impossible to succeed. This is because our very nature is egoistic. Just like a PC cannot just reprogram itself to run as a Mac, we too cannot just change our own nature. We need outside help for this.
This help comes to us from the light. It’s a special force that has the ability to change our nature. Our work boils down to extracting more and more of this light, especially through the Kabbalistic studies, and it does all the rest.

Hello, could you please help me to understand: From which of the five worlds do our thoughts and inspiration come? Why do we have a drive to read or to create? thank you
Hi Svetlana,
1. Our thoughts come to us directly from the Creator. Baal Hasulam writes about it in “Pri Chacham Sichot. The Secret of His Name”. Here’s an excerpt:
All the thoughts that enter a person’s mind are the act of the Creator. That is to say, it is not what a person feels, that he draws them from some place or that they originated from him. This is false, the biggest lie. Rather each thought, the smallest of the smallest, the Creator sent it to the mind of man, and that is the motivating force of man and of beast and of every living thing.
2. Our nature is the desire to receive pleasure. Meaning that every single action that we perform, from the simplest to the most lofty action, consciously or subconsciously, we perform it in order to acquire more pleasure or to have less pain.

Are there such things as aliens and extra terrestrials from other planets, and if so, do they also have access to the wisdom of Kabbalah?
Hi Guner,
There are higher forces in nature that are currently concealed from us. When we begin to aspire to come out of our egoistic nature and acquire the qualities of love and bestowal, we will begin to reveal these forces helping us accomplish that.
As for aliens from other planets, I have not seen such things. In our current corporeal state, the only aliens are those with awakened points in the heart. At least that’s how we feel ourselves relative to the rest of humanity.
