Hi Johan,
Everything that we reveal, we do so within our desires. We reveal the current world in our egoistic desires. When we correct the ego, in that corrected desire, we will reveal the spiritual world.

Hi Johan,
It’s a type of malfunction in our egoistic nature.

Hi Johan,
When we take our desire to receive pleasure and correct it the direction of bestowal, that corrected desire is called a soul. Since none of us are born corrected, we don’t yet have this thing called a soul, but only a soul in potential, which we call the point in the heart.
If we realize that potential, we can grow that desire to the level of the soul, if not, this same potential continues to reincarnate again and again until it gets fully realized.

Everywhere I look I see evil. I turn on the TV, I see evil. I put the radio on, I hear evil. When I hear celebrities and the like, I hear evil. The school system across the world is failing. Do you believe that the wisdom of Kabbalah should be disseminated across all avenues of media, all children to be forced to learn this wisdom the way they are forced to learn “His” “Story” in school? Should the wisdom be heard on the TV, radio, and billboards to get more people involved in this wisdom and understand the laws of nature from the very beginning of their life? Thank you.
Hi Ronny,
Disseminated to the world – yes.
Forcefully – no.
As we learn “there is no coercion in spirituality”. But we do disseminate as widely as possible, so whoever is indeed interested in learning these things, will have the opportunity to do so. We’ll learn how to properly disseminate the wisdom of Kabbalah in the more advanced semesters.

Hi Johan,
Egoism. It is the source of all of our problems because it makes us opposite to the Creator, to His qualities of love and bestowal. And when we’re opposite to Him, we experience an opposite world. Instead of experiencing His reality, in which only goodness exists, we experience our world, full of problems and sufferings.
All of this follows the law of equivalence of form, which we’ll learn in depth in the upcoming lessons. In the meantime, check out this blog post from Rav Laitman for more details: https://laitman.com/2013/04/everything-is-attained-by-the-equivalence-of-form/

Returning to the source, climbing the 125 steps is probably not possible in one biological lifetime. How can a person be reunited with the source and others in one soul, if human life expectancy is about 75-80 years?
Hi Nuria,
We learn that “there is no time in spirituality”. Reaching it does not depend on time, but only on the right desire. If we build the right desire, within it, we will right away reveal spirituality. If not, then even if a few thousand more years were to pass by, we would still not reveal anything. It all depends on us, on our efforts to build that desire.
And it is possible to perform this correction within our lifetime. This is precisely why life expectancy went up so much in recent years, from 30-40 years like it was a few hundred years ago, to our days of 70-100 years. So if we use our time correctly, there is plenty of time to reach our full correction in this lifetime.
