I have enjoyed watching daily the english translation of your lessons of the Introduction to the Book of Zohar. It seemed to me that today’s lesson, and your answering of questions was exceptionally clear.

Being American, the portion of the lesson which I received the most was your answer to the question concerning the New York conference. I want to express that I agree that the American groups are falling apart generally.

The ideal on which this country was founded causes everyone to believe that they have a right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, and they do. However, their pursuits existing in their ego has caused deep rifts in relationships and unity among people in this country. The time in which I have become aware of the wisdom of Kabbalah causes my heart to ache for my country. I see such wonderful potential accompanied by great laziness and lack of desire for correction, and I feel that if we continue to fall behind the development of Asia in particular than we shall have a lot more to fear than surviving hurricanes.

I know not the full condition of other countries of the world, but in my region I observe people scared and disconnected from one another. As I try to internally bring myself to correction I find great joy in establishing previously unrecognized connections among my peers. Yet I know that this is not enough.

For reasons such as these I pray that God continue to bestow upon me the means by which I may travel to Israel and other countries that I may continue to perceive the Upper Light and perhaps make an impact for the sake of my future children.

I hope this comment is moderated and finds you well
