For what purpose did the Almighty create evil in the world?

For what purpose did the Almighty create evil in the world? For us to rise above it, not let it affect us, and overcome it. http://twitter.com/RabbiGinsburgh/status/16987116290441216

Egocentricity vs anarchy

However bad egocentricity is, especially when one makes God prisoner to his egocentric view on reality, moral anarchy, chaos, is worse. http://community.livejournal.com/galeinai_ru/12788.html

After the reign of Mashiach, God will reign alone.

After the reign of Mashiach, God will reign alone. There will no longer be any need for a political system to control society. http://kabbalah-live.ru/twitter/posle-pravleniya-mashiah-bog-budet-tsarstvovat-odin/

When we say that anarchy is bad we mean moral anarchy

When we say that anarchy is bad we mean moral anarchy. If all of us were good, living by Torah, then political anarchy might be good. http://itzik-roytman.livejournal.com/120577.html

Disbelief is chaos

So we may conclude that disbelief in God and morality (as defined by the Torah) borders on insanity, i.e., living in chaos/anarchy. http://itzik-roytman.livejournal.com/120538.html

A person without priorities deserves neither reward

A person without priorities deserves neither reward for his good deeds nor punishment for his bad deeds. A fool is not obligated by Torah. http://twitter.com/RabbiGinsburgh/status/16932733641031680

A sane person is one whose mind orders his desires

A sane person is one whose mind orders his desires, creating a hierarchical pyramid of desires. God is sane, He has top priority desires. http://kabbala4all.wordpress.com/2010/12/20/zdravomyslyashhij-chelovek-tot-chej-razum-pri/

Native intelligence doesn't judge the essential morality

Native intelligence doesn't judge the essential morality of desires, it just orders them. If you want to be accepted in society don't steal. http://twitter.com/RabbiGinsburgh/status/16928741875781632

That's why God created the world with words

That's why God created the world with words, so that you'll never know why! Unless your soul resonates on the vibes of His inner desire. http://itzik-roytman.livejournal.com/119532.html

The same goes for written or spoken words.

The same goes for written or spoken words. If you're not on top of them you take them on face value and have no clue what's behind them. http://kabbalah-live.livejournal.com/41410.html

But perhaps his ulterior motive for working

But perhaps his ulterior motive for working so hard is to afford a vacation, to take a week off work, and that's why he's smiling. http://community.livejournal.com/galeinai_ru/10381.html

When I see someone sweating at his job with a smile

When I see someone sweating at his job with a smile on his face I think that he is by nature a hard worker, that he loves working. http://community.livejournal.com/galeinai_ru/10199.html

The Creator desires "a dwelling place below."

The Creator desires "a dwelling place below." "Below" is our ego. God desires that we reveal Him by choosing good within the context of bad. http://twitter.com/RabbiGinsburgh/status/16813732592099328

Egocentricity is the source of all evil.

Egocentricity is the source of all evil. Connect with all your heart, soul, and might, to good as embodied in the leader of the generation. http://twitter.com/RabbiGinsburgh/status/16810571882045440

By misusing the free choice given me

By misusing the free choice given me I can pervert all of my innate desires to serve my egocentric will to obtain immediate pleasure. http://kabbalah-live.ru/twitter/zloupotreblyaya-darovannyim-mne-svobodnyim-vyiborom/

The highest desire is to fulfill my purpose in life

The highest desire is to fulfill my purpose in life, after that, to procreate, after that, to live. http://itzik-roytman.livejournal.com/117753.html

All of my desires derive from 3 basic

All of my desires derive from 3 basic, innate desires given me by my Creator: to live, to procreate, to fulfill my purpose in life. http://kabbalah-live.livejournal.com/39671.html

The Zohar speaks of 72 bridges.

The Zohar speaks of 72 bridges. 72 = loving-kindness. Fill your desires, mind, and body with thoughts, words, and acts of loving-kindness. http://twitter.com/chassidus/status/17101011361468416

The initials of body, intelligence, desires spell "bridge."

The initials of body, intelligence, desires spell "bridge." They are the bridge between you, nothing, and the outside world. http://kabbala4all.wordpress.com/2010/12/20/iniczialy-slov-telo-um-zhelaniya-sostavlyayut/

God gives us free choice

God gives us free choice, to choose to be something or to choose to be nothing. http://community.livejournal.com/galeinai_ru/7777.html

God created something from nothing

God created something from nothing, He created us to fell that we are something when in fact we are nothing. Something covers nothing. http://kabbalah-live.livejournal.com/37998.html

Who am I? Not my body, not my intelligence, not my desires

Who am I? Not my body, not my intelligence, not my desires, they were all given me. So who am I? I'm nothing, one with the Almighty. http://twitter.com/RabbiGinsburgh/status/16801041668382720

Can you imagine a world without you in the center or without you at all? Try to. The truth is that if you're not there I'll miss you. http://kabbala4all.wordpress.com/2010/12/20/mozhete-li-vy-predstavit-sebe-mir-bez-sebya-v/
