KABBALISTIC HAIKU: HOW TO DEFEAT YOUR ENEMY

-by Rabbi Michael Laitman

Comment: Our viewers asked you to comment on your haiku.

Observe your external enemies,
Uncover your internal enemies,
And win!

My Response: Yes. It is precisely the internal enemies that you reveal and conquer.

Question: How do I reveal them through the external ones? Right now I am surrounded by external enemies, everything, including nature and my neighbors.

Answer: Try and see why these external enemies surround you. Try to determine that this is a consequence of your inner enemies, which are inside you, your unbalanced properties: envy, jealousy, hatred, greed, and so on. All your egoistic properties, of which there are many, are projected onto the surrounding world.

If you want to live in balance with the world around you, you need to balance yourself inside and not be in such a contradiction with yourself. You must love all your properties equally and, in accordance with this, love everyone outside yourself so that you feel at peace inside yourself and with the world around you.

And first of all, this is done at the level of interconnection with people, and then with the animal, vegetative, and inanimate world.

Question: That is, I have placed myself in this laboratory, called “humanity,” and in it I have to work in order to change myself? And then I will change everything around me?

Answer: Yes. But you didn’t place yourself, you were put here. And you should reveal your inner enemies and defeat them. That is, you have to overcome them. You must contact them correctly. And then the external enemies will disappear, dissolve as enemies.
