Kabbalah develops one’s qualities of bestowal and compassion. This constantly expands a person’s perception and awareness of the world and allows him or her to be fulfilled by it while never becoming empty.
The study of Kabbalah not only expands and heightens one’s perception and awareness of the world, but also develops one’s compassion and ability to give, or ‘bestow to others.” When we become fulfilled by giving rather than receiving, we are perpetually satisfied and feel no lack or emptiness.

Changing the thought behind an action is the way to produce positive & purposeful results
The end result of an action is already contained in the initial thought.
Our individual thoughts and actions affect the entire human system. Most of us are unaware of how we affect this system so our thoughts and actions benefit ourselves only; when our individual intentions for ourselves are combined with others, they are naturally in conflict.
At the global level, crises reveal the initial thoughts behind our actions.
If we become aware of our individual egoistic thoughts, we can consciously determine the purpose of our actions.
It is clear that changing the thought behind an action is the only way to produce positive and purposeful results.
This is the law of purpose.

To enter spirituality, we need only evoke the spiritual sensation within us, sharpen our senses & open our perception to what is right here.
We cannot take a train or a plane to the spiritual world because it is within us. To enter spirituality, we need only evoke the spiritual sensation within us, sharpen our senses, and open our perception to what is right here.
We will then find ourselves in a never-ending, wonderful adventure that will astonish us and fill us with awe; from then on our sense of awe will be never-ending.

The way to solve today’s world’s problems is by viewing the world as one whole.
We view life as being multifaceted due to our fragmented impressions of the world.
We divide nature into different branches of science—but how many can there really be? Nature is one. We are the ones who divide it into disciplines such as biology, zoology, botany, and geography; because of our limited perception, we don’t grasp it as one.
Humanity continues repeating the same mistakes because we solve problems differentially—we cannot solve a single problem because we are not internally holistic. The only way to solve today’s world’s problems is by viewing the world as one whole.
There is an integral approach to solving our problems: we can transition from division and differentiation to interconnection. When we consider anything happening in the world as being part of our common world, we will no longer make wrong decisions.
Unity among people awakens the single force of Nature—the force that unites and includes everything, including us.

Altruism is nature’s underlying principle, and it is humanity’s goal to equalize with this principle.
Everything living receives and gives to its surrounding environment. This is nature’s underlying principle, the law of altruism.
An individual cell not only sustains itself, but also supplements other cells and organs: they must “yield” to each other, know about each other, interact, and “help” one another.
This is what happens in any living body. Biologists describe it brilliantly: they say that this is “nature’s wisdom”; that nature lives by this principle, that this is the general law of nature, and that without it, even crystals could not unite, and atoms could not interact.
Researchers are discovering such “altruistic” behavior in the substance’s tiniest particles. Moreover, altruistic behavior of the entire organism and its components clearly manifest at the vegetative and animate levels, where growth is possible only when cells unite and allocate a role for each cell without seizing foreign territory in the “cell community.”
They are talking about self-denial, about mutual understanding and mutual support of cells, parts, body organs, about each being ready to kill itself for the success of the common program. We see that such actions take a form of mandatory law in nature, in general as well as in each of its parts—except for the conscious activity of humans.
In all of nature, this law of altruism acts according to the program inherently instilled in all creatures, without any room for free will—except man. A person must reach such disillusionment with one’s own development and progress to realize the necessity to fulfill this universal law of nature, the law of altruism, within oneself as well.
When together, we exert to adapt to this law and its properties—to yearn for this law to enter our consciousness and to have the strength to establish this rule over us—we will correct the whole of nature and become an integral part of the entire creation.
