We are in a closed sphere, which affects us all around through the principle of unity. However, our egoism is opposed to this; on the contrary, it divides us, literally tears us apart. The world is integral; we are not. So, we need to change. Today, whether we like it or not, it is already impossible to play protectionism.

Dr. Michael Laitman: In the wisdom of Kabbalah we learn about the birth of the spiritual Kli, about its growth and about changes of state.

After that it melts, disappears, dies, and in its place another body appears, and another, and so forth until we go out to the level of the completed correction. We return into the bodies all the time because they are imperative for us for our independent attainment of every spiritual level.
