Dear Mr Laitman,
In my lifetime, so far, I was educated that woman are emotional and men are rational.
In my experience and perception this is the opposite.
Man are emotional beings and woman are rational beings.
For example: intuition is something that woman do have, but this is rationality on steroids.
Is this false understanding?
Cheers,
Ron
I come from Slovenia, Europe and Im 29 years old. First I want to apologise for my mistakes and for a long writting. I always felt that this kind of living is not right,that I dont belong here, that love to all is our true nature. And I begin to study, study everything to learn why are we here. I read about history, almost every religion, spirituality, everything to know why and If Im right. I have been in India, I studied there Ayurveda, quantum physics,….and stil I felt that Im right, besides everybody around me. My goal was and is to be financial undependent to gain respect amoung people, to gain trust and then to dedicate my live to show and teach people that love is everything, that we can change, … but I still had desires When I began to study Kabbalah I cried, because now I finally know that for all my live I feel the right thing. I watch Kabbalah tv and I have seen all your documentaries and tv shows, read books, I also meditate and practice silence and a few days before it happened. My world changed, I changed, I can feel now, I feel love every minute and Im conected every second. Im in love in everything. Everything was there at the same time that I needed it, and everything went right with everything,it still is.
And now there is something that I dont understand, Im very confused and I really need to know. I worked hard for a few years now, than opened my company in another country(Croatia) and I almost lost everything. Now my company is at the beginning of success and now is time when I can spent money and enjoy. But I dont know. Is it wrong to desire a nice house that I never had, a car,.. . I was never materialistic, but this is the first time, that I can really buy ME something that I want. Is this ego? Is this that ego that I want to get away from with kabbalah? Is it wrong to buy something and feel good, feel loved? To finaly achieve my desires? Because I feel like this was given to me and at the same time I feel wrong to enjoy in material things- IN MONEY. Is it wrong? Is this ego?
I really dont know and until I do i dont know how to respond on my new life.
with LOVE

Rav,
What’s the difference between reading Kabbalistic texts from a hard-bound book rather than through an e-text, such as my computer or an iPad. Is the intention not the same?
Best,
Joe Donnelly
Dear Rav,
I am student of the Education Centre, currently attending the Spring Fundamentals. My question is what books would you recommend beginners like myself to read and in which order?
I am currently reading Kabbalah for the Student, during the class (the articles discussed during the class) but also every evening before bedtime in sequential manner as well as “Attaining the Worlds Beyond”.
Many thanks,
Fabrizio
I have no question but I need to tell you that:
Dear Rav Litman, its true that I don’t know you and I never met you but I now know what you did for us!!! Kabbalah is great as well as your effort to spread the light and the wisdom all over the world. I can only LOVE you ♥ thanks to you and to all BBEC team… ONE BIG HEART ♥
I have been studying for 5 years at BB. My wife admits she does not yet have the “point in the heart” but she wishes to support me and the Kli in the spiritual work. Is she permitted to attend workshops and conventions and to participate if her only desire is in support of me and she does not have the need to reveal the creator?
Dr Mr Laitman,
I do not why, but I do feel a urge to bring the following again to your attention.
It is said: “One thousand enter the study of Kabbalah, but only One comes out of the study being a Kabbalist.”
If one thousand students enter Kabbalah then they can only come out as One, when one comes out of his own, he is not a Kabbalist.
Understand, that if you enter a group of students, and your wish is to leave the group as THE Kabalist, you are a slave of pharao.
One thousand enter Kabbalah study, and they come out as One.
Cheers,
Ron.
Dear,
i Have watched all the videos from your website by anthony cosinec …..I am interested and I think the whole concept seems to be logical….but I have a question ….. In the video it says that kabbalah was kept as a secret and it was revealed on 1995….why was it revealed now after being a secret for thousands of years….its clear about whats in it for us ….but whats in it for the one who revealed it….Please answer my question as this is the only doubt that i have about kabbalah….the rest is perfect
Dear Rav,
It looks like Greece is set to leave the Euro. What effect will this have on the EU and what would you advise the members of the EU to do ?
Kind regards
Kristian.
How do we work when we feel nothing, no hatred, no love, not even towards our friends or family?
Dear Rav Laitman
We experienced a great congress, filled with strong bonding and raising of the importance of our exalted goal, of the Creator.
From the congress lesson, your guidance always come to my heart at the right time; We must defeat the Ego that wants to separate us from eacho otherl, in a period of descent.
Thank you.
What role does “the Group” play in our spirituality? How can it help us?
This year is 5772. There is some dispute as to what happened 5,772 years ago: the creation of the universe or Man. If it is man, the universe was created 5 days earlier.
Rosh Hashana starts in Tishrei, the seventh month.That has always confused me. How could the universe start in the 7th month?
Dr Mr Laitman,
The Lord did not create us as egoists, we abused His gift and turned our self in to selfish monsters. WE are the creators of egoism.
Cheers,
Ron
Dr Mr Laitman,
Is it not that The Creator did give us consciousness to share His LOve, but that we turned it in to self love, egoism?
He created us to love, but we turned it in to egoism…
Cheers,
Ron.
Hello
I’ve been studying Kabbalah for over 5 years .In the beginning I was over-whelmed with the information I’ve learned and slowly my life seams to have a bigger meaning than before.Right after Yom Kippur last year it seams that my desire/ego started to over-rule and it became more difficult to stay proactive, to use tools of Kabbalah in order to transform. It seams that I’ve never study before.Why is this happening ?
I have a question about maaser . I have my own company and I would like to know if I have to pay maaser on the income of the company ( the sales ) or only on the salary that I give to myself ?
Dear Mr Laitman,
Why do you present the thoughts of BHS and Rabash in such a archaic manner?
Cheers,
Ron
