Discovering Spirituality Within Us

Here's an excerpt from today's morning lesson for August 20 2009:

What does it mean that everything is within me? The spirituality that everyone is talking about cannot be discovered on the outside - it is all within us. That is why it's called the internal part of the Torah.

Here's the Hebrew clip

By the way today's a really big day here in Israel - the Children's Congress!! 1200 parents and kids coming!!! Watch the promo here (kids from all over the world singing in Hebrew at the last congress)

Living Above Time

This is an excerpt from today's morning lesson - August 19 2009.

How can we experience the past and future and correct them now? The answer lies within us.

A person rises above time, starts feeling reality above the time of yesterday. This is hard for us to grasp, but he feels that past is felt as present, and then he corrects it. There is no past, because past, present and future are our states that are in Malchut D'ein Sof. 

Hebrew clip where Rav Laitman explains how to rise above the dimension of time.

Major Kabbalah Event in Berlin

Bnei Baruch is hosting its “Uniting Europe” congress taking place in Berlin, June 19-21, 2009. At this historic event the world’s foremost Kabbalist, Michael Laitman, PhD, will be signing copies of his latest book, Bail Yourself Out: How You Can Emerge Strong from the World Crisis, published May 2009 (120 pages; $5.00). All the lessons and activities throughout the event (lessons, workshops, meals, songs and cultural evenings) will focus on the central theme of unity in a global world.

In the words of Michael Laitman, “A new global world is shaping before our eyes, a reality in which humanity and nature are all interdependent. We need to study the global laws of nature to get along in this new world. Kabbalah is a 5,000 year old wisdom, destined for our times, with the sole purpose of teaching humanity how to achieve balance and complete harmony amongst ourselves and all nature in a global world. Come join us to set the path for a better future, for Europe and the whole world. People from around the world are invited to embark on this groundbreaking journey as we strive to build a European spiritual union, based on love and friendship – a model for the entire world to follow.”

The congress is open to anyone with a desire to change himself and the world we live in. Students currently studying with Bnei Baruch via the Bnei Baruch Learning Center on their own or through www.kab.tv are especially welcome.

Michael Laitman will be giving five lessons throughout the congress. The lessons will be given in Russian, with simultaneous translation into English, German, Hebrew, French, Spanish and Italian.

The Wisdom of Life Elementary School

Since we are a few days before the largest congress to ever take place in the U.S. with over 700 participants flying in from all over the world, it's a good time to think about what we want.

We are currently working on raising funding from philanthropists and foundations for the Wisdom of Life Elementary School in Israel that will open its doors in September 2009. We are doing this through BB USA which is a registered nonprofit with 501(c)(3) status.

Come check out the site for more information about the legacy we want to pass onto our children, and children all over the world.

The founder of the new school is Dr. Gilad Shadmon, who teaches the special kids lessons on our TV Channel with children from all over the world participating in real time through huge screens in the TV studio.

The children are the key to fixing everything that is wrong with our world. They hold our future in their hands. They are truly the best investment we can make.

The 2009 North America Unity Kabbalah Congress is taking place May 15-17th in the Catskills. Everyone is invited.

Din ve Kabala

     

What is Kabbalah, is it a religion?

Din ve Kabala

Herhangi birisine  Kabala nedir  diye sorduğumuzda hemen aklına Madonna, kırmızı ipler, kutsal sular geliyor, oysa tam tersine gerçek otantik Kabala öğretisi bu dünyada varoluşumuzun sebebini ve  bütünüyle yaratılışın amacını keşfetmemizi sağlayacak bir ilimdir.

Tabii bir de Kabala’nın din olduğu önyargısı ile karşılaşıyoruz sık sık, bunu da açıklığa kavuşturmamız lazım. Her din veya öğreti  kendisini diğer dinlerin üstüne yerleştirir, bunun sebebi de tüm dinlerin insanın  egoizminden kaynaklanmasıdır. Tüm dinler ve milletler arasındaki nefretin sebebi budur. Kendi içinde bile dinler çeşitli dallara, tarikatlara ayrılmıştır.

 

Kabala bizlere sadece kendi dinimizdeki ya da grubumuzdaki insanları sevmeyi değil dünyadaki tüm insanları sevmeyi öğretir; “Komşunu kendin gibi sev!” deyişi Kabala’nın ana prensiplerinden biridir. Şöyle bir düşünürsek, kendisinden nefret eden bir insanı sevene pek rastlanılmaz. Tarih günümüze kadar gelen dinden kaynaklanmış nefret ve şiddet olayları ve savaşlar ile doludur.  Din her zaman insanları ve milletleri ayırmıştır.

Sonunda tüm dinler yok olacaklar çünkü hepsi insanın egoizminden doğmuştur. Kabala dinler üstü bir öğretidir zira hiçbir ayrım yapmadan (din, dil, ırk, millet) dünyadaki herkese hitabeder.

Voorjaars schoonmaak!

 A post about how we, as women, prepare the Kli and how my spring cleaning madness reminds me of our Goal.

Vandaag is het voor het eerst sinds tijden weer aangenaam weer. De kilte heeft de lucht, in ieder geval voorlopig, verlaten en ik zie kinderen met de jassen open buiten spelen op het pleintje. Persoonlijk krijg ik er de lente kriebels van en ik denk met mij veel van ons!

Toen ik net de slaapkamer van mijn zoontje aan het stofzuigen was schoot me in een keer te binnen dat ik vroeger altijd zo'n hekel had aan schoonmaken. Op alle mogelijke manieren verzette ik mij tegen het rolpatroon dat er heerst, mannen werken - vrouwen onderhouden het huis en voeden de kinderen op. Maar nu ik Kabbalah studeer is me zoveel meer duidelijk geworden over dit "rolpatroon". Want; "is het wel een rolpatroon, bedacht door de mens? Of heeft het een diepere betekenis.. een spirituele wortel?"

Natuurlijk heeft het een spirituele wortel! Alles op aarde heeft een spirituele wortel, want zonder spirituele wortel zou het simpel weg niet bestaan!

De mannen brengen het geld (om het gezin te onderhouden) thuis maar ook de "spirituele bacon". Onze mannen werken zich te pletter voor hun gezinnen. Overdag bij hun baas en 's nachts gaan ze er om 2 uur uit om 3 uur lang les te volgen bij Rav. Daarnaast staan ze altijd voor ons klaar en niks is ze teveel. Ze bestuderen de boeken, verbinden zich met andere mannen en dan willen wij ook nog dat ze gaan staan stofzuigen? Wauw, wij vrouwen zijn wel erg veeleisend (maar ja met Malchut als onze wortel is dit ook niet zo raar, wij willen álles!).

Nee, zonder gekheid! Momenteel zie ik het als een éér om ons huisje fijn te maken voor mijn man. Binnenkort komt hij in Nederland wonen (5 mei!!!) en ik wil hem in de watten leggen. Met het schoonmaken van mijn huis voelt het of ik onze Kli aan het voorbereiden ben, of ik het groter en sterker maak zodat hij (en omdat alles met elkaar verbonden is ook alle mannen van de Wereld Kli) zich kan richten op de taak die hem toebedeeld is.

De taak van de vrouw is mij veel duidelijker geworden sinds ik Kabbalah studeer en verzet voel ik allang niet meer. Het is een heerlijk proces en ik verheug me op de volgende stappen die komen gaan. On to Gmar Tikkun!

Liefs, Karin

Neden acı çekiyoruz?

 

 

Why are we in pain? How do we find out the truth?

 

Acı çekmeden Tanrıyı hatırlamıyoruz hiç; ne zaman hastalıklar, ölümler, ayrılıklar yaşasak birden aklımıza geliveriyor Yaratan.  Neden bunları yaşıyorum, benim günahım ne diye sormaya başlıyoruz. Kendimize dönüp acılarımızın gerçek sebebini araştırmak yerine “kader” nosyonuna sırtımızı dayayıp yan gelip yatıyoruz. Ve işte sığınacak kapımız hazır, işin kolayı da bu zaten.

Algıladığımız dünya, bu acılar acaba gerçek “realite” mi, yoksa bir hayal aleminde mi yaşıyoruz? Peki ıstıraplarımızın bir sebebi olabilir mi? Elbette! Zira tüm realite sebep-sonuç ilişkisi üzerine kurulmuş ve bizlerin bunu algılaması ancak henüz sahip olmadığımız bir algı geliştirmekle mümkün olur. Ve ancak bu algıyı, maneviyatı algılayabilmemizi sağlayacak altıncı hissi geliştirdiğimizde Yaratan’ı, yaratılışı, neden ıstırap çektiğimizi anlayabiliriz. Öyleyse nasıl geliştireceğiz bu hissi? Tabii ki tüm bunları algılama arzumuzu geliştirerek...nasıl mı?
