In these cases, it’s possible to apply an external force in order to overcome the mutual repulsion. This will force one quality to enter inside the other. Yet, even then, both qualities will still continue to exist. For example, we can mix liquids together by way of vibration, or cause metals to merge together by way of fusion. This produces different types of metal alloys that are soft or hard, malleable or rigid, as well as the type that can be made into thin sheets. However, this is not true unification.

In spirituality we have to attain true unity between opposite qualities. We don’t yet understand what this means. This isn’t just simply taking a little bit of Malchut and a little bit of Bina and mixing them so they would exist side by side. Spiritual unity is when each one helps the other and each enters inside the another. The qualities of Bina penetrate the qualities of Malchut, and the qualities of Malchut enter Bina. Thus, they exist together, complementing each other for the sake of attaining a mutual goal.

Found a pic of Vicki, Al, Nadine, Emanuel and I brainstorming  the launch of this site last year at the kab convention. We are planning already for the Zohar convention in the Catskills – few miles past New Paltz – May 7-9.  www.kabbalah.info

Things that come from the heart   enter the heart           (4x)

Our world exists below the speed of light

My friends stay up and study all night

I’m not hiding – just waiting on you

To come and put your dress on.

A simple girl becomes a queen

A little boy wakes from his dream

First you hate me then you love me

Things that come from the heart enter the heart           (4x)

I want to lift 2 million pounds

I want to feel you all around

New York is kissing the world

Come on world

Come on world

Come on world come on world

Come on world come on world

Things that come from the heart enter the heart           (4x)

You can be hanging out with your best friend, listening to music and having a great time.  You think the world of him.  If you somehow found out that earlier that day, he had stolen $40 from your wallet, you would feel differently about him.  If you never found out, you would continue enjoying your time together.

So I’m going to start talking about perception of reality – this is where it begins.

Brief history:

Isaac Newton said there was reality and there is me and they are both constant.  There are fixed laws that govern our relationship and they can be measured.

Einstein said there is reality which is constant – it is vast as can be, but the laws of it are constant E=MC2, you can count on it.  And “I” change.

Hugh Everett, about 15 years after Einstein said, there is reality and there is me.  When I change, reality changes.  This is what quantum physics is telling us, that the observer actually affects what he is observing.

All right, last weekend I was at a kabbalah convention, a Zohar congress and the kabbalist Michael Laitman

gave a lesson about the spiritual perception of reality.  “Kabbalists” he said, “tell us that all of reality is inside of you.”

So who cares?  Why even philosophize about it?  Yeah, let’s not philosophize about it, but try this on…  If all of reality is inside you – and if this sounds like a load of shit, just try it on, I’m going to get more into this in future posts – but not to philosophize about it, but to yearn for a new state, a new reality.  If reality depends on my state, then what I should change and arrange in me is arranging this eternal reality.

You determine your life.  If you start feeling that everything is in you, then you don’t die, you carry on.  If I achieve changing my attributes, my perception, if I feel all on the outside as if it is all my inner phenomenon, then there is nothing that changes or dies.  I ascend to infinity where everything is inside of me.

The truth is (yeah, I know the truth    that our bodies and matter don’t exist.  we begin to feel that everything exists in our desires – there are phenomenon in our desire of inanimate (rocks, etc), vegetative, animate (animal world, etc) and the speaking level – it is as if we are really living in a matrix.

So concentrate on your perception of reality.  It is futile to try and morally educate people.  All we can do is set an example to others of how much we want this experience of total fulfillment.  Our qualities will become like the true, infinite Reality that exists beyond our five senses.  (A bug sees life different than you.  A dog sees with his nose, etc, but reality exists in a bigger way than any ‘being’ can sense it – I’m talking about perceiving that One true reality.)

We live in all of these phenomenon, these hormones and experiences, its as if we are in a dream.  All that needs correcting is our desire for the One reality.  Always see myself from within.  And how do I change my perception of reality  All I see outside me is within me.  When those outside of us  me are as important to me as myself – when we want this unity, then we’ll be equivalent to the Light, to the One reality where everything is connected and whole, then we can feel always fulfilled.

What’s the difference between saying, “I love you” and meaning it and saying “I love you” and thinking about something else?

The thoughts, the intention behind the actions is where the fuel is. The acts have to be.  But they are easily misinterpreted. 

The real movement is in the thoughts, the intentions. 

Think about being at a concert and the amazing feeling when everyone is in the zone with the performer and something happens that doesn’t happen when the performer plays the song in his living room alone. 

When the group gets together and thinks the same thing, rides the same wave, the same intention together, something bigger is created, something bigger than the combination of individuals there.

Despite what happens today, hold on to the thought that there is purpose, that we are destined for a good life.  Despite how it feels, you are loved.  We will see it through.

Look at all this laundry

Look at what I’ve done

All the seeds I planted

They all have become

-

And we’re destined to be seeders

Wherever we go

And we plant and we plant and we sing and we dance

And we try to get into the flow

–

And we seek and we find

And what’s blowing my mind

I see what I’m needing to see

It’s happening, I fit into this thing

Thoughts rule.  When I’m in a good mood I don’t care about obstacles,I’ve got the strength and energy to move on.  In a bad mood, I’m stuck, every step is a drag.  To the universe, what’s the difference between thoughts about my life and thoughts about what I’m dreaming of my improved life?  This is my signal to the world.   I’ll tell you that staying in  a positive frame of mind about life, amidst the obstacles reframes it all.  And remaining in the dark, fearful place perpetuates more of the same and the people who are positive don’t want to be brought down by close contact with such darkness.
Gravity is pulling the movie in my mind into darkness and distrust.  And so we gotta become happy regardless of the shit we encounter, focusing on the good and drawing that goodness to us, like a magnets.

All right then, let’s do it.

………………………………………..I’ve been reminded that I’m the one who creates my destiny.  That the world is here for me to be happy.  Every day, the world is made for me to be happy.  I can figure out my problems while I’m freightend or while I’m happy.  It is like a weight that I was just not strong enough to lift and after all this time, somehow, I am finding some strength to lift it, to focus on something else, to focus on me, that I’m not going to wait for this other person to make me happy.  I will change my perception, I will be happy, make a list of what I’m happy about and thankful for – start from there.

I need reminders, I need constant reminders and that comes from a special encounter with a friend or a good read from a good book, or piece of inspiration during the day and slowly (while I wish it was fast), I see that my destiny is in my own hands, that I cannot make someone change their feelings, but I can change mine.  And the world is here for me to be happy in, what is the alternative, that it’s here to make me miserable?

So, on top of these tidal waves of horror and despair, I’m riding, I’m surfing, I’m flying, I’m happy.

I’ve got some gross flu bug.  My knees ache, my elbows, writsts, ankles.  My muscles ache, I’m nasueas.

We had a recording session this weekend.  I can’t wait to show you the videos and the audio we recorded.  Titled the Unity Sessions, we began recording an album, completed 6 songs and captured the entire process on video, plus a live show on Sunday in the studio.

I couldn’t get out of bed to make it to the last 2 days of work in the studio.  I was so sick, tossing and turning, restless and achy.  Nasueas and tired but not able to sleep.

And I’m wondering, if someone told me on Saturday, while I laid in bed suffering, if they said, “Seth, there is a million dollars cash waiting for you under a bridge in Brooklyn, all you have to do is go get it.”  I wonder if I’d have been able to go get it. What if it was only $500,000.  Or even $100,000.  I think I would have crawled to the car and made it.

I’m interested in this phenomenon and what it means to humanity’s state of crisis.  It is so much easier to find the fuel to satisfy ourselves,  but when it comes to satisfying others, it is so much more difficult to muster the energy and motivation to do it.
