What is the languages of Roots and branches?
I understand that these books are written in a special language called the language of branches. What is it? The language of branches, Balasulam explains about it already in the first part of Tess, that all the books, real books in the wisdom of Kabbalah, are written that way, in the language of branches, meaning that we have a system that is above the attainment of a person and that gradually comes down, materializes, comes closer to us until it comes to a state where an ordinary person can start studying it, learning it, and by it become closer to ascend to spiritual degrees. And this is actually the first, very first purpose of the writing of such a book. I heard that people that read Kabbalah books can draw special lights into their life. What is that? Yeah, that's correct. It's because the subject of the book speaks of spiritual forces, spiritual forces that are not revealed in our world. So what follows is that we, by starting to study about them, by connecting to them, even if we don't really know, we draw these forces upon ourselves, and this is how we, as if, come closer to them, so much so that we start feeling them. It takes much time and effort and persistence and studying, learning. This is how we begin to acknowledge these forces. When a person starts to feel and become acquainted with these forces, it means that he starts developing from below up, seemingly, as if. What do you mean as if? As if he's ascending. There are no physical ascents and descents here. What then? There is an ascent here in terms of attainment. I want to ask about the books that talk about the attainment of a person. I understand that the main books that we study in our time that describe the ascent from below up are the books written by Balasulam, introductions, articles, and also his son, the Rabash, who was your teacher, and many of the articles that he wrote. What is actually the main theme in these books? What do they talk about? They talk of the actions of the Creator, that the upper force that we call the Creator, the way he created man and arranged different systems in him, and how does a person exist in these systems that the Creator has created for him, and bit by bit, gradually, attains the Creator himself. What's the role of these books that describe the ascent from below up in relation to me? What do they want to bring into my life? They want to acquaint you with the upper system that governs the whole of reality. They want to acquaint you with the upper force, the Creator, through the several forces by which he works on us, and that we from below up to him can come to know him. What's special about the books written by your teacher, Rabash? Rabash added to his father's books, Balasulam, he added many explanations, brought the wisdom of Kabbalah even closer to us, so much so that we can feel ourselves close in feeling, in understanding, in realizing what Balasulam wrote. Can these books bring me to feeling the upper force? Of course, this is their purpose. How does it feel to all of a sudden feel the upper force? It's something that you can't describe. It's simply a person enters a reality that he starts to feel it. What does he feel? He starts to feel that these forces really act in the world, that it is a network of forces that we can discover, that we can connect to, that we can live with. What does it give a person if he starts living with the upper force? It gives a person the ability to understand the spiritual systems and that it is all for him. Does it broaden one's mind? Yes. And the emotion? Emotion too. What does it emotionally do to a person? Emotionally, that he enters it as a person who suppose for the very first time hears music, that before that he never heard music. It's hard to imagine because we all heard music. But this is what happens, that suddenly he starts to feel how the world around him, it's playing. Playing what? Love. Love. That's beautiful.
00:00
I understand that these books are
00:02
written in a special language called
00:04
the language of branches. What is
00:05
it? The language of branches. Balasulam
00:09
explains about it already in the
00:11
first part of Tess. that all
00:18
the books. real books in the
00:21
wisdom of Kabbalah. are written that
00:23
way. in the language of branches.
00:26
meaning that we have a system
00:29
that is above the attainment of
00:33
a person and that gradually comes
00:37
down. materializes. comes closer to us
00:42
until it comes to a state
00:44
where an ordinary person can start
00:47
studying it. learning it. and by
00:50
it become closer to ascend to
00:54
spiritual degrees. And this is actually
01:04
the first. very first purpose of
01:07
the writing of such a book.
01:10
I heard that people that read
01:12
Kabbalah books can draw special lights
01:15
into their life. What is that?
01:17
Yeah. that's correct. It's because the
01:21
subject of the book speaks of
01:30
spiritual forces. spiritual forces that are
01:36
not revealed in our world. So
01:40
what follows is that we. by
01:43
starting to study about them. by
01:46
connecting to them. even if we
01:48
don't really know. we draw these
02:00
forces upon ourselves. and this is
02:06
how we. as if. come closer
02:10
to them. so much so that
02:15
we start feeling them. It takes
02:18
much time and effort and persistence
02:24
and studying. learning. This is how
02:29
we begin to acknowledge these forces.
02:33
When a person starts to feel
02:35
and become acquainted with these forces.
02:37
it means that he starts developing
02:39
from below up. seemingly. as if.
02:44
What do you mean as if?
02:45
As if he's ascending. There are
02:47
no physical ascents and descents here.
02:49
What then? There is an ascent
02:52
here in terms of attainment. I
02:57
want to ask about the books
02:58
that talk about the attainment of
03:01
a person. I understand that the
03:03
main books that we study in
03:05
our time that describe the ascent
03:07
from below up are the books
03:09
written by Balasulam. introductions. articles. and
03:13
also his son. the Rabash. who
03:15
was your teacher. and many of
03:16
the articles that he wrote. What
03:18
is actually the main theme in
03:20
these books? What do they talk
03:21
about? They talk of the actions
03:24
of the Creator. that the upper
03:27
force that we call the Creator.
03:31
the way he created man and
03:34
arranged different systems in him. and
03:42
how does a person exist in
03:45
these systems that the Creator has
03:48
created for him. and bit by
03:51
bit. gradually. attains the Creator himself.
03:57
What's the role of these books
03:58
that describe the ascent from below
04:01
up in relation to me? What
04:02
do they want to bring into
04:03
my life? They want to acquaint
04:06
you with the upper system that
04:08
governs the whole of reality. They
04:12
want to acquaint you with the
04:15
upper force. the Creator. through the
04:19
several forces by which he works
04:22
on us. and that we from
04:26
below up to him can come
04:30
to know him. What's special about
04:32
the books written by your teacher.
04:34
Rabash? Rabash added to his father's
04:45
books. Balasulam. he added many explanations.
04:54
brought the wisdom of Kabbalah even
04:58
closer to us. so much so
05:02
that we can feel ourselves close
05:08
in feeling. in understanding. in realizing
05:20
what Balasulam wrote. Can these books
05:24
bring me to feeling the upper
05:28
force? Of course. this is their
05:31
purpose. How does it feel to
05:35
all of a sudden feel the
05:36
upper force? It's something that you
05:40
can't describe. It's simply a person
05:43
enters a reality that he starts
05:50
to feel it. What does he
05:52
feel? He starts to feel that
05:57
these forces really act in the
06:00
world. that it is a network
06:04
of forces that we can discover.
06:08
that we can connect to. that
06:16
we can live with. What does
06:18
it give a person if he
06:20
starts living with the upper force?
06:22
It gives a person the ability
06:27
to understand the spiritual systems and
06:36
that it is all for him.
06:39
Does it broaden one's mind? Yes.
06:43
And the emotion? Emotion too. What
06:46
does it emotionally do to a
06:47
person? Emotionally. that he enters it
06:51
as a person who suppose for
06:53
the very first time hears music.
06:55
that before that he never heard
06:57
music. It's hard to imagine because
07:01
we all heard music. But this
07:05
is what happens. that suddenly he
07:07
starts to feel how the world
07:10
around him. it's playing. Playing what?
07:17
Love. Love. That's beautiful.
