Introduction
Wars, natural disasters, COVID, loss of trust in government institutions, economic and social crises, depression, anxiety, suicides.
Why is all this happening now throughout the world with such intensity as never before seen?
Where is God?
Where is justice?
Why doesn’t the Light overcome and defeat all this darkness?
What can be done to change our reality?
What can give us hope?
I believe there isn’t a person in the world who isn’t asking himself these questions.
In the series “Prophets vs. Empires,” we’ll seek answers by traveling back in time to witness history’s hidden truths.
Our journey has seven interconnected chapters. Each chapter stands on its own and invites you to pause in order to truly absorb it.
As these chapters unfold before you, they’ll gradually form a complete picture of what’s really happening in our world right now and what is required of each of us in this momentous time.
This writing is both an invitation and an opportunity to open ourselves to answers that have been given from the heavens to prophets throughout thousands of years.
I invite you to open yourselves to answers that the prophets received from above over thousands of years. These answers are nothing like the limited explanations we keep trying to come up with on our own—explanations which are constrained by our personal perspective.
The prophet Amos said in chapter 3, verse 7: “Surely the Lord GOD does nothing, unless He reveals His secret to His servants, the prophets.” Throughout history, God has shown prophets what the future holds so that people might change their ways in time.
This series will uncover these secrets which—though thousands of years old—speak directly to our lives’ challenges right now and provide the roadmap to humanity’s urgent longed-for change.
Chapter 1 — The Prophets Speak to Our Spiritual Consciousness: “And forms the spirit of man within him” (Zechariah 12:1)
To understand the prophetic concept, the core principle and apply it, we must realize that the prophets directed their messages to the human spirit—to man’s spiritual consciousness.
Today, many people talk about “consciousness manipulation,” and that the real war we are waging is the war over our consciousness. However, they fail to understand that currently, humans possess three types of consciousnesses: Spiritual consciousness, intellectual consciousness, and emotional consciousness.
Most people focus only on developing the latter two—they are aware of their thoughts and their emotions—but they ignore the spiritual consciousness, which is the only means through which we can perceive reality beyond the material and earthly dimension, and become truly knowing beings. That is, to become human in the fullest sense of the word, with the power to change reality or more precisely, to create and shape it!
Most people also don’t realize that if they develop only their intellectual and emotional consciousnesses—both of which are material consciousnesses, as they are bound to time and space—they will never succeed in truly freeing themselves from the matrix. (For those who don’t know, The Matrix is a 1999 science fiction film that depicts a dystopian world where humans are unaware that they are imprisoned.)
This is because their spirit—their true self—is bound in the matrix of their inner world.
We can explain the difference between the “outer or external matrix” and the “inner matrix” using the story of the Exodus from Egypt:
The prophet Moses succeeded in freeing the Israelites from the bondage of the external matrix of Egyptian oppression. However, liberation from the chains of the inner matrix—that is, replacing the slave consciousness of intellect and emotions with the consciousness of a free spirit—required forty years in the desert!
Therefore, it is rightly said that it was easier to take the Israelites out of Egypt than to take Egypt out of the Israelites.
We, too, are in a transition between Egypt (the old world) and the Promised Land (the new world), and, therefore, we, too, will need to “pass through the desert” and free ourselves from the inner constraints that bind our spirit: the intellect and the emotions.
Even if we break free from the system, this doesn’t guarantee our true freedom, which exists only in our inner world.
In fact, according to the Plan of Creation, we were meant to have one consciousness: a spiritual consciousness. The intellect and the emotions were meant to merely be its servants—the executors of its will in the material world.
But humanity developed in a wrong way, and the servants became the masters.
This tragic, distorted development can be described in one verse from Proverbs: “A servant who becomes king,” which refers to the intellect, “and a maidservant who displaces her mistress,” which refers to the emotions.
This profoundly wrong development of mankind—where people no longer understand the language of the spirit—is precisely the immense challenge that all prophets had to contend with!
On their part, the prophets offered a solution that would have been very simple to understand and implement if perceived by the spirit, but it sounded completely illogical when interpreted through the intellect and the emotions.
To illustrate how difficult it was for the prophets to explain their solution to people who are spiritually blind and deaf, I want to begin with a true story about an experiment that took place:
A person with perfect vision was given glasses with very strong prescription lenses.
For several weeks, the person couldn’t see anything through them! His vision was completely blurred, and he had terrible headaches. But as time passed, he started to get used to the glasses: his headaches stopped, and he began to see through them—though what he saw was distorted!
However, when they finally removed his glasses and he should have been able to see normally again—he couldn’t see anything at all!
How is this story related to us?
As human beings, what distinguishes us from other creatures is the spirit, which is our true essence. We were all given a natural ability to see, to perceive, through the eyes of our spirit, beyond time and space.
The intuition—which is the voice of the spirit—is our sensory tool for this.
Let’s take as an example the initial intuition that a woman has about a man she meets on a first date. This could be an intuitive sensation of closeness, rejection, or simply disinterest. Our intuition—which is quick and clear like lightning—gives us the most accurate information, but many times we don’t listen to it.
Why? Because our intellect and our emotions drown it out with their arguments. (In the example above, the intellect might say, for instance: “He is a doctor, so it’s not possible that he’s a bad person.” And the emotions might say something like: “Stop rejecting all these guys, or you’ll never get married!”)
The “silencing” of the spirit’s voice—by the dictatorship of the intellect and the emotions—is something that happened to us long ago. As early as the story of the Garden of Eden—which is a code and not a historical account—we are told about how Adam and Eve fell for the serpent’s temptation—who is Lucifer—and ate from the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge.
At that moment, humanity essentially gave up its ability of spiritual sight, spiritual perception, and put on glasses that have distorted its vision. These are the glasses of material consciousness: the intellect and the emotions.
Since then, we have become so used to looking at reality in a distorted way that we don’t even notice it. We’re even proud of being intellectual or emotional, and we reject anyone who tries to help us remove these distorting glasses and start seeing life through the natural vision of our spiritual eyes.
Therefore, while political and financial commentators examine global reality and try to analyze and explain it through the two material consciousnesses—the cold intellect and the inflamed emotions—the prophets brought a different logic. A different explanation. A different solution.
If our spirit had listened to the prophets—all of our problems as individuals and as humanity would have been solved!
But this is exactly what we lack and precisely what all of us will need to learn in the new world:
To possess a single consciousness which is a spiritual consciousness, while our intellect and our emotions return to being what they were always meant to be: merely servants of the spirit and executors of its will in the material world.
We will no longer have conflicting voices within us, nor will we hesitate to choose, because the spirit always knows what is right and accurate for its development.
However, since the prophets addressed and spoke to the logic of the spirit, the answers and explanations given in these 7 chapters will benefit only those whose inner spirit spark has not yet been extinguished.
The answers and explanations given in this lecture will benefit those who firstly are willing to remove the distorting glasses, although initially they may not be able to see anything or understand everything said in this lecture series. However, if they persist in their decision to become new human beings with spiritual consciousness, gradually they will become ones who can truly see! Human beings who intuitively grasp that if we apply the eternal advice given to us by the prophets, we will experience a transformation in our personal lives and a complete revolution for our nation and for all humanity!
Chapter 2 — The Battle for the World of Thoughts
As mentioned, since Adam and Eve ate from the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge, the consciousness of all humanity has been reduced to the material world.
Mankind no longer knows that life on earth is not an end in itself, but merely a school for the development of the spirit, and therefore—from the dawn of human history until our present day—people have fought over material resources.
The collective form of these wars are empires, struggling for control, power, resources, and money.
In the past, these empires were Assyria, Babylon, Rome, etc., and today they are the United States, China, and Russia. (Later in this lecture, I will address a question that many ask themselves: Is Trump one of the good guys or not?)
However, when an ordinary person looks at today’s world—through the lenses of the intellect and the emotions—he tends to ignore his own desire for material gain and instead sees reality as a chessboard. A board where the kings—the rulers of empires, the ultra-wealthy, the Deep State, the globalist elites, etc.—play as they wish with the pawns—the ordinary citizens.
Such a person might go to protests against the government, write brilliant posts against the New World Order, and perhaps even record podcasts, aiming to awaken more people to revolt against the establishment! All this because, in his opinion, the establishment is responsible for all social injustice!
However, behind closed doors, such a passionate social-justice and human-rights activist will often feel a growing sense of anger, resentment, and even helplessness.
This is because if we look at reality through the lenses of the material consciousness, even if we consider ourselves “awake,” it doesn’t help us change anything in the world. Why? Because according to this perspective, the only way to take back the power from the rulers of the matrix is through a critical mass of people waking up and standing against them.
But, unfortunately, as most people continue to sleep, the awakened people can only observe the plan of the globalist elite, report on it and analyze it.
The typical “awakened” person naturally wants to distance himself from any responsibility for this situation.
Because how could it possibly be that we—the ordinary people—are responsible for the deceptions, wars, corruption, and sexual perversions that are exposed before our eyes on a daily basis?
However, if we were to ask a prophet to explain what is happening in the world today, and what we are required to do to change reality—the answers we would receive would be completely different!
We would learn that no nation is ever defeated from outside before it has destroyed itself from within through immoral behavior and inner decay!
Even an empire destroyed by enemies can be rebuilt. But an empire destroyed from within has no chance of recovery!
Indeed, we can see throughout history a recurring pattern of great empires—such as the Roman Empire, the Ottoman Empire, the British Empire, and others—that disintegrated due to corruption from within.
Therefore, all the prophets first and foremost called out to take responsibility and undergo inner purification, not to blame external factors.
Secondly, the prophets would reveal to us that the true battlefront where this war is waged and decided is in the world of thoughts. We can control our words and actions, but we can’t control the thoughts that arise from our inner world and reflect whether we are of pure will or not.
The prophet Isaiah (one of the major prophets of Israel who foresaw the Messiah and prophesied during the Assyrian crisis) warned that evil thoughts lead to acts of destruction and devastation: “…Their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity; Wasting and destruction are in their paths.” (Isaiah 59:7)
The prophet Jeremiah (known as the “weeping prophet” who warned Jerusalem of its coming destruction and witnessed the Babylonian exile) warned that the evil thoughts within Jerusalem prevent its salvation: “O Jerusalem, wash your heart from wickedness, That you may be saved. How long shall your evil thoughts lodge within you?” (Jeremiah 4:14)
The prophet Micah (a contemporary of Isaiah who championed social justice and predicted the birthplace of the Messiah in Bethlehem) describes how evil thoughts harbored at night lead to evil deeds in the morning, which then bring Divine punishment. (Later in the lecture we will explain that this punishment isn’t God personally intervening, but rather the automatic operation of the Laws of Creation.)
“Woe to those who devise iniquity, and work out evil on their beds! At morning light they practice it… Therefore thus says the LORD: ‘Behold, against this family I am devising disaster.'” (Micah 2:1-3)
However, the prophet Zechariah (who prophesied during the rebuilding of the Temple after the Babylonian exile and had numerous visions about the Messiah) emphasized that the very thought of evil against one’s neighbor is hated by God:
“Let none of you think evil in your heart against your neighbor… For all these are things that I hate,’ says the LORD.” (Zechariah 8:17)
This helps us understand why even the evil thought itself is already a problem, even if the person doesn’t act on it.
Why do our thoughts hold such power?
I now ask those who have not yet removed the glasses that distort spiritual vision to take them off and listen to the knowledge about the power of thoughts. This knowledge explains why the low-level and corrupt thoughts of most of the world’s inhabitants are actually creating the harsh reality in which we find ourselves, and, moreover, even play into the hands of the rulers of the matrix, the globalist elites, and the various empires!
This is because these rulers—unlike most people—know this secret!
In every thought that is created, there is a living Power, and each thought immediately takes form in the ethereal world—a form which cannot be perceived by the five senses, since it is made of fine matter.
This is a real form—which some people are gifted with the ability to see—having a body made of fine matter, whose shape expresses and embodies the deep meaning of the thought.
From the moment a thought is formed, and according to the Law of Attraction between Similar Species—which is one of the basic Laws of Creation—it either attracts or is attracted to similar types of thoughts in the world of thought forms, depending on its strength.
Through the operation of this Law, centers of different thought forms have been created, which greatly affect people through the power accumulated in them.
At first, a specific thought center will influence people who naturally have similar tendencies. Their desire will be stronger, and they’ll even be encouraged to create more similar thought forms, which will strengthen the center.
But even people without those tendencies can be affected if they’re weak in spirit, especially when dealing with a center that’s gaining more and more power.
The people who will be protected from the influence of negative centers will only be those who have developed a positive inner strength, and, thereby, a connection with anything that is different from them becomes impossible.
Unfortunately, hatred, jealousy, lust, greed, and other evil thoughts are those that have created the largest power centers in the world. They do this through the large number of people who connect themselves to them, and they are the ones contributing to the destruction taking place among humanity!
The centers of peace, purity, and love are much smaller, and, therefore, blessed will be the time when thoughts of purity and love once more take a greater hold within humanity!
This is because the moment the world of thoughts is purified from the thought pollution, the effect on the purification of the material world will be immediate!
So, to summarize, the collective nature of human thoughts worldwide—even those never expressed through actions—ultimately determines humanity’s direction and, furthermore, provides power to the rulers of the matrix!
Why? Because we create thought centers, or, if you will “thought clouds,” and whoever is stronger draws these thoughts to himself, strengthens from them, and then simply downloads them—implementing them in practice!
(A cloud—for those who don’t know—is a virtual storage space that connects different computers. The analogy is that all outgoing thoughts rise to the “cloud,” and whoever has access to it can use the information stored there and implement it).
This is how powerful people harness our thoughts and bring them to fruition in reality! The end lies in the beginning—the final outcome originates in thought!
Therefore, the rulers of the matrix ensure we continuously immerse ourselves in negative thinking, because if we stop generating these kinds of thoughts, their power supply will be cut off and they will wither away on their own!
…
Let’s examine a few examples of this profound, revolutionary principle taught by the prophets, so that we can begin to understand that we are all active participants, accomplices, in what happens in the world and by no means mere victims.
Example #1: Sexual Exploitation
Many are shocked by reports of sexual exploitation of young teenagers—and even children! However, anyone who watches pornography and thereby produces distorted thought forms of sexuality is complicit in these crimes! (For those who don’t know, porn sites are among the most popular sites on the internet. According to various statistics, these sites attract billions of visits each month and constitute a significant percentage of global internet traffic!)
Let’s take a more specific example: A person may only think about rape, but this thought will strengthen another person who has a similar thought—even if he is on the other side of the world—and cause him to commit the horrific act!
According to earthly laws, punishment comes only to the person who actually committed the crime, but according to God’s Laws of Creation, even one who merely thinks the criminal thought is considered an accomplice to the crime!
A final example in this matter: In the New Testament—in John 8:3-11—we are told how Jesus saved a woman accused of adultery from an enraged mob that sought to stone her. He did this by calling for anyone who could truthfully say he was without sin—meaning a person who had not committed adultery in his thoughts—to cast the first stone. Of course, no one met this condition.
Do we ourselves meet this condition with regard to our own thoughts?
Example #2: Material Wealth
Many are familiar with the book “The Secret” published in 2006, which became an international bestseller and was later adapted into a documentary film. This book also deals with the Law of Attraction Between Similar Species, and its central premise is that our thoughts create our reality. More specifically, positive thoughts attract positive outcomes into our lives, while negative thoughts attract negative ones.
However, what was the main goal of the book and especially the film? Using the power of thoughts merely to gain material wealth! To become a multi-millionaire!
This, by the way, also mirrors what is offered in most personal development workshops today. They focus exclusively on advancement in the earthly, material dimension of life: money (“attracting abundance”), health, and romantic relationships.
Hardly any workshop encourages using the power of thoughts to instigate and propel the ascent of the spirit and of humanity as a whole.
This is because few understand that if a person were to truly embark on the high road to developing a spiritual consciousness, everything he needs would automatically fall into his lap.
The greatest teacher of all already proclaimed: “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” (Matthew 6:33)
What do we think about? What do we dream about during our leisure hours, when we’re not occupied with work? This is the true test revealing where we all stand.
The truth is that almost everyone aspires to material security and all the physical pleasures that money can buy.
True, many only think and dream of becoming multi-millionaires, and few actually succeed, but most of humanity shares the same dream: material security and success.
If a person has enough money, health, and family—he will rarely seek anything more in life, believing he already has everything he needs.
Therefore, we must understand that our collective thoughts about money as a life goal create an enormous power center, which someone stronger than us who knows this secret simply attracts to himself and materializes it for himself in reality—becoming a millionaire.
Example #3: Wars: How do we contribute to wars? Let’s be honest, how many of us have ongoing disputes with family members over money? (Inheritance issues, for instance.)
How many of us merely think about being wronged financially and silently harbor resentment toward a family member, friend, business partner, ex, or even our current spouse?
As we already explained in the beginning, the great wars between empires are merely a reflection of all these small wars we have with our neighbors, friends or family, whether through actions or thoughts alone.
But even if we don’t have financial conflicts, isn’t there at least one person with whom we’ve engaged in difficult battles because our ego refused to yield?
So why are we surprised that national leaders can’t find a way to end wars? The only difference is that they have larger economic interests and bigger egos than the average person.
Therefore, only a person who is inwardly pure—someone in whom no thoughts of lust, greed, hatred, or resentment toward his fellow man ever arise—can rightfully blame the rulers of the matrix.
But a person who has reached such a level won’t do this. He has already come to know that the way to change the world is through inner transformation. As Mahatma Gandhi said: “Be the change you wish to see in the world.”
Therefore, a person who has purified himself will seek only to continue affecting the world positively through his purified thoughts and to inspire others through his actions. This is so others will join him on the path to purifying the world and building a new one.
Chapter 3 — The Sin of the Spiritual Leadership: “You have departed from the way; You have caused many to stumble at the law” (Malachi 2:8)
The prophets had one simple formula for victory over the various empires that ruled in their time: To align with God’s Will!
If you still don’t believe in Him—because you have a misguided association between religion and God—then we can also say that the prophets demanded alignment with the Laws of Creation, which are actually the Creator’s Will.
The prophets didn’t pursue a “doctorate” on the current empire of Darkness, they didn’t look for external culprits, and they never encouraged going to war!
They called for spiritual activism and never for political activism!
Their message was incisive, clear, and uncompromising: Only inner change will bring external change! A blessing or a curse is solely the result of our inner state!
However, the prophets pointed the finger only toward the spiritual leadership. This is because the fish rots from the head, and if the spiritual leadership has fallen, what chance do the common people have?
In biblical times, the spiritual leadership consisted of the priests.
Let us talk about how the prophet Samuel and the prophet Ezekiel fought against the sins of the priests, and then we will delve into the spiritual significance of these sins for our time as well.
In the first book of Samuel (chapters 2-4) we read about how the two sons of Eli, the High Priest in Shiloh, Hophni and Phinehas, committed serious sins: Out of disrespect for the sanctity of the Temple, they took portions of the sacrifices that were not due to them and lay with the women who came to pray at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting (the portable sanctuary that served as Israel’s central place of worship before the permanent Temple was built).
Although Eli rebuked his sons, he took no concrete action to stop their deeds. Therefore, the prophet Samuel—who served as Israel’s last judge and first major prophet around the 11th century BCE—was sent to him, prophesying the punishment awaiting them: both would die on the same day!
The role of the prophet has always been to serve as the critic of the religious system when it begins to corrupt.
A true prophet doesn’t shy away from speaking the hard truth directly, without compromise, because his loyalty is solely to God. This unwavering commitment typically brings persecution from the self-righteous religious establishment.
During this time, Israel was engaged in battle with the Philistines—a powerful nation of idol worshippers who were longtime adversaries of the Israelites throughout the period of the Judges and early Monarchy. As they faced defeat, the Israelites made a desperate decision: they retrieved the Ark of the Covenant from the Temple—the sacred vessel housed in the Holy of Holies that represented the highest connection between heaven and earth.
But rather than bringing the victory they hoped for, this action led to a catastrophe: The Israelites suffered a crushing defeat, 30,000 soldiers perished, Hophni and Phinehas were killed, and the Philistines captured the Ark of the Covenant itself.
This story shows us a key principle: a corrupt spiritual leadership leads to a national disaster. It also shows that worship objects cannot be used as good luck charms while the spiritual leadership lives in sin!
In contrast, during approximately the same period—around the 11th or 10th century BCE—the young David (who would later become Israel’s greatest king), without armor, without combat experience, and with only a simple sling and five smooth stones from a brook, defeated the nine foot tall Goliath, the Philistine giant equipped with the best weapons of that time, all because of one thing: his unwavering faith in God:
“Then David said to the Philistine, ‘You come to me with a sword, with a spear, and with a javelin. But I come to you in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied. This day the LORD will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you and take your head from you. And this day I will give the carcasses of the camp of the Philistines to the birds of the air and the wild beasts of the earth, that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel. Then all this assembly shall know that the LORD does not save with sword and spear; for the battle is the LORD’s, and He will give you into our hands.'” (1 Samuel 17:45-47).
Now, let’s jump forward 500 years and arrive at the prophecies of the prophet Ezekiel, who prophesied during the final years of the First Temple period and later during the Babylonian exile (sixth century BCE).
Ezekiel’s prophecies concerning the sins of the priests in the Temple are among the most severe and disturbing in Scripture, particularly in chapter 8 where he describes his vision of the abominations in the Temple, which grow increasingly shocking as one enters deeper into the Temple.
In this vision, God shows Ezekiel four scenes of idolatry taking place within the Temple itself:
- The image of jealousy at the altar gate—“the image of jealousy which provokes to jealousy” (8:3)—believed to be a statue of Asherah, a pagan fertility goddess worshipped in rituals designed to provoke jealousy between husbands and wives.
- Seventy elders of Israel burning incense to images of reptiles and unclean animals carved on the walls—“and every form of creeping things, and abominable beasts” (8:10). They performed these rituals in private seclusion, believing that “the LORD does not see us” (8:12).
- Women sitting and weeping for Tammuz—the pagan fertility god associated with springtime, who according to Babylonian mythology every year died and was resurrected.
- Twenty-five men bowing in worship to the sun in the east — “worshiping the sun toward the east” (8:16), with their backs deliberately turned away from the Temple of the LORD.
In chapter 8 verse 18, immediately following these abomination, God declares: “Therefore I also will act in fury. My eye will not spare nor will I have pity; and though they cry in My ears with a loud voice, I will not hear them.”
Chapter 9 then describes God sending destroying angels with the command to specifically: “Begin at My sanctuary!” (9:6)
In chapter 10, Ezekiel witnesses the gradual departure of the Divine Presence—retreating stage by stage as the abominations in the Temple worsened—until its complete withdrawal, which ultimately permitted the Temple’s destruction.
To understand why the prophets overlooked the sins of the empires and political leaders—and saw them merely as instruments carrying out humanity’s collective sins, as we’ll explore later—while placing the majority of the blame on the corrupt priests who brought destruction upon the people, we must grasp the true significance of the Temple and why idolatry was so problematic that all prophets waged an all-out war against it, though they rarely were successful.
Please don’t forget to remove your glasses and practice your spiritual vision when you listen to this explanation (because the intellect certainly will not be able to grasp it).
The Temple was the connection point between heaven and earth. It was the place where cosmic energy—which is the expression of the Divine Power that gives life to and sustains the universe—was poured and flowed in its most concentrated form.
The role of the priests serving in the Temple was to transfer this energy—or Power—to the Chosen People and the Promised Land, which in turn were supposed to transfer it to all of humanity and the entire world!
(In one of my previous lectures, I explain that the term “chosen people” never meant a people destined for superiority, standing apart from other nations. Rather, it referred to a people selected for a specific responsibility: to channel Divine Power to all nations! This was the original plan and true purpose of the Temple.)
Going back, this way of channeling or transferring the Power was first and foremost through the purity of thoughts of those serving in the Holy Temple.
And here I want to expand the knowledge about thoughts:
The Power of God—which is synonymous with life energy or cosmic energy—flows continuously through all of Creation, lies in it, and remains inseparable from it.
This Power exists everywhere: in the air we breathe, in every drop of water, in plants and animals, and naturally, within human beings themselves.
Since human beings are composed of both a physical, material part and a spiritual part, they have a special role in conducting this Power, for themselves and for their surroundings.
How does this work?
Just as a lens collects the sun’s rays flowing through it, transmits them in a focused way, and concentrates them to a single point, so too does man—through the intuitive perception of his spirit—collect the Power flowing through him and pass it on, in a focused form, through his thoughts.
In other words, our thoughts are what create and shape reality!
We must understand that the Divine Power itself is neutral and acts on its own. The nature of our intuitive perceptions and the thoughts arising from them determine whether we channel this Power for good or for bad!
The priests had the closest access to this Power and, therefore, also bore the greatest responsibility!
Therefore, the moment their thoughts as well as their actions were directed toward false idol worship instead of true worship of God, they polluted the entire ethereal world and created dark thought centers or clouds, which immediately influenced the common people!
The priests were the ones who automatically channeled the Power toward destruction, and, therefore, in a later period, the sages determined that the primary cause for the destruction of the First Temple was: idolatry!
But how is idol worship related to us in our times?
To answer this question, let’s revisit the first of the Ten Commandments:
“I am the LORD your God!… You shall have no other gods before Me.” (Exodus 20:2-3)
What is the true meaning of this commandment?
Is it merely prohibiting idolatry in the literal sense—forbidding people from bowing to statues and idols that ancient peoples believed possessed divine powers?
No!
“Other gods” means anything that we place at the highest position in our lives and from which we draw all our power.
With this deeper understanding of what idolatry actually means this commandment—given approximately 3,000 years ago—is unquestionably more relevant today than it was in ancient times! This is because the pantheon of modern idolatry has expanded beyond dedicated hours of worship into every aspect of life. Today’s idols include money, sex, social status, romantic relationships, family, physical appearance, science, nationalism, and more.
Therefore, the powerful grip of idolatry—which we observe in historical accounts and wonder why ancient peoples couldn’t break free from—hasn’t vanished. It has merely changed its appearance while growing even worse in our modern world!
Another difference between idol worship and worship of God is related to the differences between spiritual consciousness and emotional consciousness.
The worship of God originates from the purity of the spirit and the nurturing of spiritual consciousness, which alone enables human beings to perceive their lives on earth as they are truly meant to be, that is, for spiritual development.
Without guarding and nurturing the spiritual consciousness—by those who are supposed to be the spiritual leaders of the people—everyone falls into Lucifer’s net, who has succeeded in imposing on most of humanity the falsehood of material consciousness, in which humans can no longer perceive anything beyond time and space.
In contrast, idolatry is rooted in emotional fervor (emotional consciousness). This explains why idol worship also led to sexual promiscuity. Pagan rituals and festivals—particularly those honoring Baal and his consort Asherah, the chief deities in the Canaanite pantheon—deliberately incorporated the complete abandonment of moral restraints and willful violation of sexual boundaries as central elements of worship.
In addition to all that, Baal’s prophets would engage in extreme physical worship acts, cutting themselves with swords and spears until they bled profusely. These self-mutilation worship rituals were performed to invoke Baal’s presence and compel him to manifest his power by sending fire from heaven.
Is it any wonder, then, that beyond idolatry, the two additional reasons for the destruction of the First Temple were: sexual immorality and bloodshed?
If we summarize this point, it was the corruption and degradation of the priests that received the harshest criticism from the prophets because the priests were responsible for receiving and channeling the Power. Had they fulfilled their sacred duty faithfully, this Power would have been directed toward healing the world rather than destroying it.
Most people would then have received the Power in its pure form and developed naturally along the straight and narrow path toward the Light!
Moreover, had the spiritual leadership remained true to its position and role, it would have had the Power to automatically exert a positive influence on the political leadership as well! This is because throughout history, it was never the role of political leaders to guide humanity toward the Light, but only to act in the material world, using the Power that flows to them from the centers of Light on earth!
This explains why the political leaders throughout history have always sought to capture holy places—they knew that these sacred sites were the dwelling places of the Power!
This was true in ancient times and it is also true today.
In the last chapter of the lecture, we will discuss the 144,000 human spirits, who are meant to be the spiritual leadership of humanity in the new era.
These are the human spirits who are supposed to transfer the Power to those people who will choose to awaken to the Will of the Light and yes…these 144,000 can—in fact, they must—transfer the Power in its pure form, also to the political leaders!
Plato made a similar claim—albeit a more earthly one—regarding the responsibility of the spiritual leadership over the political leaders and the common people. He wrote that the ideal state should be led by philosophers, men of wisdom who had undergone appropriate education. He presents the famous idea that “unless philosophers rule as kings in cities, or those who are now called kings and rulers genuinely and adequately philosophize… there will be no end to troubles for cities.” (The Republic Book V, 473c-d).
Let’s take a quick jump forward and apply what has been said so far to our current times:
Donald Trump, for instance, is a reincarnation of George Washington, and he, indeed, has a significant role to play in changing the world for the better (this explains why he survived the two assassination attempts on his life).
Whether he will fulfill this role, however, depends entirely on the spiritual support—of the invisible kind—that he should receive from these 144,000 human spirits who must awaken to their mission and, specifically, to their ability to access and channel the Power.
Let me be clear: Trump is not the Messiah, and he cannot bring about spiritual redemption, which remains the most important issue during these Days of the Final Judgement!
(This mistake, by the way, was exactly the mistake of Judas Iscariot, who aspired to turn Jesus into a political leader who would bring about political redemption, while Jesus’s mission was solely to show the way to spiritual redemption. By the way, Jesus did not come to establish any new religion. And if you want to know the truth about Him and His mission, you are invited to visit our website almaschool.org for the lecture: “Jesus Christ — The Real Story According to the Laws of Creation”.)
Let’s return to Trump. Trump is a politician who operates in the physical world of action, and his choices can go in either of two directions:
If his spirit receives spiritual support—it will move in a positive direction; and if his ego controls him—because the 144,000 human spirits do not awaken to stand at their posts—it will bring destruction!
Therefore, the question of whether there will be world peace or a third world war is a question that will be decided in the very near future, according to humanity’s spiritual consciousness.
:
Let me take you back in time to the final years of the First Temple period, to the reign of King Josiah, who ruled from 639 to 609 BCE—just 23 years before the First Temple’s destruction in 586 BCE.
If we can truly understand the message of the prophets from that era, we will see why no empire can ever stand above God’s Justice and His perfect Laws of Creation!
This period was marked by wars between the major empires of that time—Egypt and Assyria, and later Babylon—all fighting for control over the land of Israel. (This is similar to the wars between empires today—mainly the United States versus China—because for thousands of years, the land of Israel has always been a focal point for power struggles between empires, primarily for strategic reasons).
The economic situation during that era was equally dire: Crushing taxes were barely paid to Assyria, international trade suffered greatly under Assyrian domination, and the population endured severe economic hardship and widespread poverty.
Does this sound familiar to our current situation? Truly, there is nothing new under the sun—history simply repeats itself (though now with far greater intensity, due to the Days of the Final Judgment).
Following the failed rebellion of King Hezekiah against the Assyrian Empire (701 BCE)—an attempt to gain independence that ended in military defeat—the people of Judah found themselves in a state of national trauma. Many cities throughout Judah lay in ruins, and the population lived under the constant shadow of fear, anticipating further Assyrian retribution. This climate of defeat and oppression led to widespread fear, despair, and a profound spiritual crisis: the people’s faith in God’s Power was deeply shaken, and many turned back to idol worship.
Nowadays this is also taking place. Rather than allowing hardship to spark spiritual awakening, people flee with all their might toward modern forms of idolatry—seeking false comfort and an illusion of control and power—through excessive consumption, escapist travel, mindless entertainment such as concerts, festivals, sporting events and recreational activities, substance abuse, and other diversions.
This pattern of spiritual decline amid impending disaster also occurred in the legendary continent of Atlantis—believed to have existed in the region of today’s Greenland and the North Atlantic islands—some 10,000 to 15,000 years ago. For decades, Atlantean leaders received dire warnings of a coming destruction from a group of women who were prophetesses and priestesses—known as the Ama-Lara—yet these warnings went unheeded. In their final years, as many Atlanteans realized their fate was sealed, they chose to bury their heads in the sand, abandoning themselves to unbridled material pleasures rather than seeking spiritual redemption.
But let us return to King Josiah, who was known as a ruler deeply devoted to God: “Neither before nor after Josiah was there a king like him who turned to the LORD with all his heart and with all his soul and with all his strength, in accordance with all the Law of Moses.” (2 Kings 23:25)
Understanding the spiritual crisis facing his people, Josiah recognized that to save his people, he must implement a comprehensive religious reform to eradicate idol worship.
As a king following the path of the Light, Josiah naturally sought counsel from the prominent prophets of his time: Zephaniah, Huldah, and Jeremiah.
The Prophet Zephaniah—the eldest of the three prophets who prophesied during the early years of Josiah’s reign (640-630 BCE)—supported the religious reforms but warned that without genuine repentance, it would be impossible to escape the coming destruction:
“Seek the LORD, all you humble of the land, who carry out His commands; seek righteousness, seek humility; perhaps you may be sheltered on the day of the LORD’s anger.” (Zephaniah 2:3)
Zephaniah calls for spiritual action: Seek! Search! Act before it’s too late!
He addresses the “humble of the land”—those who already practice true humility, which isn’t a facade of modesty, but a deep understanding that all human abilities are gifts from God meant to serve a higher purpose rather than self-glorification.
He speaks to those “who carry out His commands”—the upholders of justice and righteousness.
Because only those who are humble on a personal level and just in their public dealings perhaps stand a chance to save the people.
(We will explore this point more deeply in the next chapter when discussing the role of the righteous in preventing or mitigating the Judgment).
The Prophetess Huldah was active during Josiah’s reign, around 622 BCE.
The king sent a respected delegation to consult with her about the significance of a Torah scroll that the High Priest Hilkiah had discovered during the renovation and purification of the Temple in Jerusalem.
Scholars debate the exact nature of this Torah scroll, but it likely contained the “Blessings and Curses” passage found in the Book of Deuteronomy (primarily chapters 27-28).
This passage outlines the Divine Laws of Creation—Laws which, when followed, would bring the blessings of prosperity and national wellbeing, but when violated, would bring the curses of disaster and suffering.
Upon hearing its contents, King Josiah tore his clothes in distress, as he realized these curses were about to befall his people due to their persistent deviation from the righteous path over approximately 400 years! (Years during which the prophets had continuously issued warnings and alerts that went unheeded).
The passage is divided into two main sections:
The Blessings:
- Blessings in both urban and rural areas
- Abundant crops and agricultural plenty
- Economic success
- Victory over enemies
- Elevated status among nations
- Abundance and health
And the Curses:
- Diseases and epidemics
- Drought and famine
- Defeat in wars
- Exile and destruction
- Suffering and poverty
- Subjugation to enemies
- Dispersion among the nations
The passage concludes with a description of exile and destruction which, according to traditional interpretation, were fulfilled in the destruction of both the First and Second Temples.
Are the curses described in this passage not what we are experiencing, to some extent, in these present days as well?
However, we must understand that God does not curse or bless. He does not become angry and punish, nor does He become happy and reward on a personal basis. Rather, the Laws of Creation—which express His Will—operate automatically and therefore will bring—sooner or later—upon every person and every nation exactly what they have sown:
Sow good—reap good; sow evil—reap evil.
So if this is the case, why do we read in the bible (the Torah and the Prophets) that God punishes and rewards personally?
I like to answer this question with a real-life story.
When my youngest son was two years old, he—like many children his age—used to put his fingers into electrical outlets.
Naturally, I would gently scold him, and that was enough to make him stop this habit, as he feared my reaction. In contrast, as he grew older, he stopped doing this not because he feared his mother, but because he understood he could get electrocuted.
Similarly, we need to understand that the Bible can be read with the consciousness of young children, where we truly fear doing certain actions because God will punish us if we behave badly, or reward us if we behave well; or with a mature consciousness, which understands that no man with a white beard is watching us from above. Instead, the Laws of Creation—which express the Creator’s Will and have been engraved in creation since the beginning of time and for all eternity—are what automatically and without any possibility of error bring upon us reward and punishment.
But let us return to Huldah’s response to the delegation sent by the king:
Huldah—in her brief and sharp prophetic style—gives the delegation two focused and clear answers:
- All the curses written in the book will come to pass, because of the idol worship that has continued for generations.
- Because of King Josiah’s humility and repentance before God, he will not witness the calamity and destruction that will come upon Jerusalem.
Although Huldah prophesied that the judgment against Jerusalem was already sealed, Josiah nevertheless began an extensive religious reform: he purged idol worship from Judah and Israel, destroyed the altars, purified the Temple, and centralized the worship in Jerusalem.
Perhaps he hoped that if he could bring the people to complete repentance, the decree might be canceled. But his efforts were in vain. The roots of idolatry were so deep, and the reform that was “imposed” from top to bottom failed to take root among the people. Additionally, Josiah lacked the charisma of a leader capable of revolutionizing the hearts of the people (a reform that Bilitis, the Queen of Sheba, successfully accomplished in the Sheba kingdom—during Solomon’s reign around 930 BCE—precisely because she had the ability to reach the hearts of her people).
Let’s look at the response to King Josiah from the last important prophet of that period: the Prophet Jeremiah.
Jeremiah began prophesying around 627 BCE and continued to work until after the destruction of the First Temple (586 BCE). He witnessed the destruction of Jerusalem and continued to prophesy in Egypt afterward.
He too, of course, supported Josiah’s reforms, but warned that they were not enough as a deep inner change was required.
However, the most revolutionary aspect of his prophecy is the description of the cruel Babylonian king Nebuchadnezzar as God’s servant: “Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, my servant.” (25:9, 27:6, 43:10).
The title “my servant” expresses a special relationship of closeness to God and therefore is a title for those who can be considered God’s servants and messengers.
This title appears in the Bible in several places and refers only to prophets and those of high spiritual rank such as Abraham, Jacob, Moses, Joshua Ben Nun, King David, Isaiah, Jeremiah, and others.
And here, a foreign king who acts with cruelty against the people of Israel and destroys the Temple receives this honorable title!
What is happening here?
In fact, “my servant” means: an instrument for carrying out God’s Plan.
Unlike the prophets who were aware that they were only faithful instruments serving God’s Will, Nebuchadnezzar is unaware that he is merely a messenger fulfilling the Law of Cause and Effect!
The people of Israel sinned, and ironically, it is precisely Israel’s enemy who was chosen to be God’s servant to bring punishment upon them; and not only that, but God determined that the Babylonian Empire would rule for 70 years, and any resistance to it is resistance to God’s Will that would lead to disastrous consequences!
Now please remember what we explained in the example about my young son who would push his fingers into the electrical socket, and the explanation we gave about the difference between the consciousness of a child and the consciousness of an adult.
As mentioned, according to the mature understanding, God does not personally punish and reward, but rather the clockwork of His perfect system of Laws brings to each person exactly what he has sown!
There is no randomness in God’s perfect Creation; it is only the narrowness of our intellect that prevents us from seeing how we have woven the threads of our fate with our own hands: as individuals, as nations, and as humanity as a whole.
Therefore, whoever claims that the global chess game is controlled by imperial rulers must also say that the Darkness has more power than the Light and that there is a power beyond the Creator’s Power! This is, of course, an absurd claim, because the truth is that the one who controls all kings is the King of Kings! Or more precisely: the system of the perfect Laws of Creation of the King of Kings!
The rulers of the Matrix may think they are the ones pulling the strings of history, but they are actually just “servants” of the Law of Cause and Effect, because according to the Laws of Creation, even the plans of the Darkness ultimately serve the plans of the Light!
…
Now I want to tell you a true story—that one of my students told me—so that you can see how this principle works not only in major world events, but also in the personal lives of each and every one of us.
This student told me that during her divorce, her ex-husband managed to deprive her of all their shared money. This woman had very strong faith in God and knew that “The LORD makes poor and makes rich; He brings low and lifts up” (1 Samuel 2:7). She also knew that the Laws of Creation will deal with whoever chooses to act dishonestly, sooner or later.
Therefore, unlike what most women would do in this situation, she decided to give up all the money she was entitled to, and instead of wasting her energy in legal battles, she established a thriving business that within a few years made her wealthier than her ex-husband.
One day, she received a letter from the income tax authority informing her that she was due a refund of 8,000 euros, and she was naturally happy to receive this money (because it’s not every day the tax authority refunds money…).
But the interesting thing that happened exactly that same week was that her ex-husband called her (which also didn’t happen every day…) and, with crocodile tears, asked for her help, telling her that 8,000 euros had been stolen from him during a business trip!
Here is an example of the Law of Cause and Effect in action, where only this woman was aware of its wonders.
Her ex-husband was convinced he was a victim (he also always said he didn’t believe in the Law of Karma… well, it really doesn’t matter whether a person believes in the Laws or not, because they operate on their own…).
Meanwhile, the thief who stole the money from her ex-husband and the officials at the tax authority who returned exactly the same amount to the woman, are completely unaware that they are simply executing what had already been woven in the threads of fate and was just waiting for someone to implement and fulfill it.
(Regarding the thief, it’s very possible that by his decision he created problematic karma for himself, but this doesn’t contradict the fact that in his action, he was the executor of the Law of Cause and Effect).
From everything said so far, it is clear that the prophets placed the responsibility for the condition of the people and the land not on the leaders of the empires—who are merely “the executors of the Law of Cause and Effect”—but on the shoulders of those closest to the Divine Power: the priests, who were also supposed to serve as the spiritual leadership of the people.
Because if the spiritual leaders sin and transfer Power to idol worship—the people have no chance!
According to the Laws of Creation, when God’s Power is misused—whether in thought, speech, or deed—the mills of justice of these eternal Laws may grind slowly, but sooner or later, their absolute Justice cannot be avoided:
The Law of Attraction between Similar Species draws every evil thought, speech, or deed to one another, amplifies them—and then, at the appropriate time, the Law of Cause and Effect returns them to their originator many times stronger.
Divine Justice works with absolute precision, and there is no chance for error in the Creator’s perfect system of Justice!
Only our material consciousnesses—being limited to time and space—cannot grasp that Divine Justice does not necessarily arrive within one lifetime.
But let us return to the First Temple period to discover that even if the priests sinned and transferred Power to idol worship—there was still a chance for salvation: the presence of a certain number of righteous ones!
Before the destruction of the First Temple, the prophet Jeremiah calls for a search for just one righteous person, on whose account Jerusalem could be saved: “Roam through the streets of Jerusalem and look around and take note! Search her squares to see if you can find a single person, one who acts justly and seeks truth—that I may pardon her.” (Jeremiah 5:1)
However, the moral corruption that had spread through all levels of society—from the leadership, the wealthy, and down to the poor—meant that not even one righteous person could be found in Jerusalem who could have saved Jerusalem!
But what is the power of one righteous person against an entire nation that sins?
Why is it said (in Proverbs 10:25) that “the righteous is the foundation of the world” and what is the meaning of this saying? In the book of Genesis (Chapter 18, verses 23-33), the patriarch Abraham pleaded with God to save Sodom and Gomorrah, notorious ancient cities known for their extreme wickedness and immorality. Through a remarkable dialogue with God, Abraham gradually negotiated to reduce the minimum number of righteous people required for the cities’ salvation from fifty to just ten. (In the end, not even ten righteous people could be found, and the cities were destroyed by fire and brimstone, just as Atlantis was destroyed. This destruction came not through war, but through other messengers of God’s mechanism of the Laws of Creation—the Elemental Beings that bring judgment from nature, about which it is said in Psalms (104:4): “He makes winds His messengers, flames of fire His servants”).
But even if we’re talking about ten righteous people, what is their power against sinful cities like Sodom and Gomorrah?
First, we must understand that these numbers are not necessarily the actual numbers required to save a specific place; rather, these numbers are a code, teaching us that in the balance of powers according to the Laws of Creation, quality is far more important than quantity. We must also understand that the righteous person is not a leader. Certainly, he cannot be a political leader, but he is not even a spiritual leader (a prophet or a priest).
The righteous ones are usually hidden from the public eye (you definitely won’t find them on social media…) and are often found on the margins of society.
The righteous person is without ego, completely pure, and doesn’t need to “work on himself” to maintain purity—rather this is his natural state! And being such, he serves as a channel for transmitting the Neutral Power to the world in its original and pure form, without even being aware of it himself!
Throughout history, there has always been a minority of righteous men and women among humanity. It is solely because of their existence that the world continues to receive a supply of pure Power, and that is why it is said that upon them the world stands! This is also why it is said that “Light is sown for the righteous” (Psalms 97:11), because the righteous person spreads light in the world.
This is because when Divine Power is channeled toward good, it remains undimmed in its original purity, thereby accumulating strength much more powerfully. Whereas along with the dimming—which occurs when Power is channeled toward impure things—a weakening also occurs simultaneously.
Therefore, the absolute purity of the Power that the righteous person transmits is what will always be most effective and be the decisive factor in any final struggle. The destruction of Jerusalem by Nebuchadnezzar or the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah by the elemental beings—could have been prevented had there been found even a small number of righteous individuals, whose pure transmission of Power could have delayed or weakened the karmic effect upon an entire population (similar to how pure water can dilute polluted water to a level where the pollution becomes negligible).
Why is this happening now throughout the world with unprecedented intensity? After all the explanations given here, we can now summarize and answer this question, along with the remaining questions we posed at the beginning of the lecture.
Throughout thousands of years, many prophecies have proclaimed the “End of Days” or the “Day of the Final Judgment.” They reached all nations and all corners of the earth through prophets and prophetesses who were chosen for this mission because of the maturity and purity of their spirit.
(We could devote more than one lecture just to these prophecies, but today we will mention—as we continue—only the most important and famous among them, which is “The Book of Revelation”).
All the declarations about this period warned and urged human beings to abandon the dangerous paths they were treading, as all these paths would end in terrible defeat!
However, this period, in and of itself, was not supposed to be so catastrophic, and the phrases “End of Days” and “the Final Judgment” were not meant to evoke fear and dread in the hearts of everyone who hears them. On the contrary, they could even herald a wonderful conclusion to an era!
Because, in essence, the “End of Days” means a period when planet Earth enters its final stage. This is in accordance with the natural life cycle that applies to everything material in Creation.
The stages of beginning, development, and disintegration are necessary phases that every tree, every animal, every human body, etc., go through, as well as planet Earth and all solar systems, in order to prevent stagnation and bring about revitalization and renewal.
Therefore, if we had perceived our time on Earth as a school for the development of our spirit, we would have reached the finish line of the “End of Days” in a state where we had completed our developmental path—because we were given thousands of years for this purpose—and for us, it could have been a time of one great spiritual celebration! We would have earned a “graduation certificate” from Creation and when the time came to shed our physical body—given to all of us merely as a temporary cloak—we would have returned home, to Paradise, as completely conscious spirits!
Then, we would have fulfilled the purpose, for which we have arrived here, to the world of matter.
However, since humanity’s conduct and development over thousands of years has been contrary to the Laws of Creation; since in its stubbornness and arrogance it refused to listen to all the messengers sent to it from the Light; since all messages from the Light were distorted into religions; and since even people who were considered “good people” have actually disconnected from their spirit and become beings with only a material consciousness—the Judgment of the End of Days is a particularly painful event in which all of humanity reaps only suffering.
We are, therefore, in the midst of a global event—not because the globalists planned it, but because they are merely executing a much larger Plan that has existed in Creation since the beginning of time.
Here lies the answer to the question: Why is this happening now throughout the world with unprecedented intensity!
Let’s continue to the next questions:
Where is God? Where is justice?
If you’ve made it this far, then you already know that God does not personally intervene in Creation, but rather His perfect Laws of Creation—which express His Will—are the ones that truly embody Divine Justice!
Therefore, even in this period of the closing of karmic cycles, the Judgment occurs according to the Laws and not on a personal basis.
The pressure of the Power of the Light—which we also discussed during the lecture—is steadily increasing and exposing everything that exists within humanity, within every nation, and within each person.
This pressure of the Light—functioning like a greenhouse effect—causes all karmic cycles to close rapidly, bringing to each person’s doorstep the harvest of what he has sown throughout all his incarnations.
Therefore, anyone who speaks of “injustice” is simply someone without a spiritual consciousness, viewing this entire cosmic event through the distorted lenses (remember them from the beginning of the lecture?) of their emotional and intellectual consciousness, which are limited by time and space.
The concept of the “resurrection of the dead”—which most of us have heard about and which is also connected to the prophecies of the Days of the Final Judgement—does not mean that the dead will rise from their graves and awaken, as this contradicts the Laws of Creation. Rather, resurrection of the dead means the revival of everything that is dead within! The revitalization of everything in Creation that remains motionless, so that it will stand in its full vitality in the Divine Judgment.
In practical terms, this means that everything that has lain dormant within us, as if dead, and that we often weren’t even aware of—will awaken and strengthen under the influence of the Power.
And then, if our spirit aspires to ascend, the Power of the Light will strengthen it! But if we deny it and insist on clinging to the material consciousnesses—that same Power will lead to our demise.
The term “Apocalypse”—which usually carries connotations of destruction, ruin, and the end of the world—in its original Greek meaning, signifies nothing but “revelation,” “disclosure, or “exposure.” The exposure of the truth!
The intensified Power of the Light in the Days of the Final Judgement is also the true reason why all corruption is being exposed and nothing can remain hidden—everything is coming to light!
However, remember that this great revelation is occurring not only externally, but primarily within the innermost being of each person. In both cases, we cannot escape our responsibility for all that is happening. We have no one to blame but ourselves, and the only way to be saved from the karma rolling toward us with increasing speed and might is to correct our ways.
Therefore, every moment we have on Earth is now more precious than gold!
Moreover, those of us who begin to view this period through the lens of spiritual consciousness will experience specifically this time as the most beautiful and as the most profoundly meaningful in our lives! And then, even as the false world crumbles around us, the Light will forge new and wonderful paths for us—paths where as you walk you will experience miracles upon miracles!
Yet even the suffering humanity is experiencing may lead a small portion to spiritual awakening. For it is precisely comfort for the body, intellect, and emotions that can cause paralysis of the spirit and even spiritual death.
Hasn’t each of us experienced challenging times and crises that actually led to growth?
For many of us, wasn’t the Covid period a time of great awakening? While the intellect and emotions found it difficult to uncover the world of falsehood—for the spirit, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to initiate change!
During the lecture, we explained that Divine Justice cannot be fully comprehended or perceived within the scope of a single earthly incarnation, and now we add another characteristic: Divine Justice is not directed toward what is comfortable for the earthly body, intellect, and emotions, but toward what benefits the spirit!
Therefore, from the higher perspective of the Light, everything supports our spiritual development, even the greatest of suffering.
The intellect and emotions naturally cannot grasp this concept, as they prefer to silence the spirit and continue living in comfort. But for the spirit, the collapse of both the external and internal matrices may be the only remaining chance for liberation. Of course, this does not mean that spiritual development necessarily involves suffering. On the contrary—if we had developed according to the Will of the Light, we would have experienced health, peace, and prosperity. But because we have strayed from the right path, suffering has become the only way left for us to awaken and change direction.
Where is God?
In light of everything we’ve explained, the question is not where is God—but where are we? The real question is: How has God not completely forsaken us, given all our transgressions and distortions, as humanity, over thousands of years?
Why doesn’t the Light conquer all this Darkness?
To answer this question, we must first properly define what Darkness is and what Light is.
Almost all humans define the Darkness as something bad, as it is perceived by their intellectual and emotional consciousness. But in truth, Darkness is everything that binds and shackles the spirit to the material world and prevents it from ascending.
In other words: Darkness exists wherever there is the aspiration to see the material world as the purpose of human life. This is instead of seeing planet Earth merely as a school for the ascension of the spirit, so that it can return to Paradise as a conscious spirit.
Therefore, illness may be perceived by the two material consciousnesses as Darkness and health as Light; while for a suppressed spirit, the definition would be exactly opposite: it is precisely illness that may cause spiritual awakening.
(I am reminded of my late father who, through the severe suffering of his cancer disease, was able to connect to his spirit and to the deeper meaning of life.)
We’ve already explained at the beginning of the lecture that Lucifer’s plan (about whom we could also give an entire lecture) was: to bind humanity to the matrix of the material consciousness.
From his perspective, everything that helps humans forget about their spirit and continue to aspire only to live quietly and financially secure in the dark world is valid. This also includes, for example, endless vacations and other distractions.
This is exactly what it means to be in the Darkness, although many people would define it as being in the Light. Why? Because for most people, the Light is everything that brings comfort to their body, intellect, and emotions, and allows the freedom to do whatever they want.
But Lucifer did not create evil. He only tempted human beings to enter the dark path where there is no Light, and there, man/they alone created evil.
Because Darkness means only the absence of Light.
Absolute Darkness is actually nothing because there is no presence of Light in it at all.
However, the moment we move away from the Light, evil is created.
There is another important point that needs to be mentioned, which addresses the questions we posed above:
Those who wait for the Light to come save them and look for a savior in human form, do not truly understand the ways of the Light.
The Light illuminates—whoever wants to see and awaken will save himself.
The Light sends messengers to show the right way—whoever recognizes them and strives to adapt himself to their guidance will be saved.
Even the Messiah was not meant to bring automatic redemption, as the churches wrongly have taught their believers. Rather, He only showed the path to redemption—a path that each person must walk on his own, if he truly wants to be redeemed.
What can be done to change reality?
What can give us hope?
The answers to these questions have already been addressed throughout the fabric of this entire lecture.
However, as we approach the conclusion, I would like to answer them from an even higher perspective. This is because for a small number of listeners, this explanation might succeed in touching their spirit, and if their intellect does not interfere—and begin, as is its habit, to sow doubts—they may start to remember the promise their spirits made thousands of years ago…
As we have already said, the most well-known prophecy about the “Days of the Final Judgment” is probably “The Book of Revelation” or by its other name “The Revelation of John.”
This prophecy describes, in many images, the events of the End of Days and the Final Judgment.
(Not all of these images are precise, and most are very difficult to understand without higher inspiration and help from above, which is why “The Book of Revelation” has often been subject to many misinterpretations).
John the Baptist channeled this prophecy—apparently about two hundred years after Jesus’s death—to a prophetess who was illiterate. Since she could not write it down herself, she passed it to someone else to record, with the explicit request that her name not be mentioned, as she was only a channel for John the Baptist.
In this prophecy, John speaks of 144,000 human spirits who promised to stand ready at the Days of the Final Judgement and assist in the necessary transformation that humanity would have to undergo. I would like to explain what is the role of these human spirits in the present time and why they must awaken to their promise.
All these spirits—similar to the priests in ancient times—have, potentially, access and closeness to the Neutral Power.
If an ordinary person—whose spirit spark has not yet been extinguished—has, for example, the power of a match, each of these Called Ones has the ability to reach the power of a volcano!
Through this Power, they can and must act on the spiritual-ethereal plane and, thereby, positively influence the events of the Days of the Final Judgement.
The moment they all work together, they will be able to change the world!
- The first role of the Called Ones is to preserve the spiritual consciousness. Without this, the entire planet Earth would become a kingdom of Darkness, and no human spirit aspiring to the Light would have a chance to be saved from the inner matrix.
There are currently about eight billion people on planet Earth.
Most possess a material consciousness (meaning that they think only about material and earthly things and act accordingly), and a significant portion of them have already truly sunk into the depths of the Darkness and created absolute evil there (murderers, thieves, pedophiles, etc.).
Because of this, the thought-world surrounding the planet is like a cloud blacker than black that threatens to turn Earth into a permanent, eternal stronghold of the Darkness. Remember, Darkness is not necessarily evil, but rather a state of disconnection from the Light!
Therefore, the 144,000 human spirits, who were granted special power, are meant to be the pioneers of the change of consciousness in the new era.
In other words: they must reach the highest level of spiritual consciousness that humanity is required to reach in the Days of the Final Judgement. Only when they, as pioneers, pave the way, will a shift of consciousness become possible: for all others whose spirit spark has not yet been extinguished and can therefore still be saved.
In other words, if the 144,000 Called Ones remembered their promise and were faithful to fulfilling it—the plagues now befalling humanity would not be so severe, because with the Called Ones’ great power, they could purify the centers of Dark thoughts, similar to the work of the righteous ones.
- The second role of the Called Ones is to spiritually support the political leadership.
We have already explained in previous chapters that the political leadership of the various empires is merely an instrument for the fulfillment of the Law of Cause and Effect.
When the spiritual leadership stands correctly in its intended place, it indirectly positively influences all political and national decisions and actions!
- The third role of the Called Ones is to serve as channels through which the Elemental Beings can access the Power needed to implement the Judgment via the forces of nature.
We have already mentioned this point during the lecture, but a full explanation of the activities of these Beings would require not just one entire lecture, but a series of lectures. Today we will just mention that the Elemental Beings are those tasked with destroying all that is false and wrong and helping to build the new and correct.
We call the manifestation of the Judgment from nature, “natural disasters”—because for the intellect and the emotions they truly are disasters—but, in fact, they are part of the necessary purification of the planet during the Days of the Final Judgment.
In the Book of Revelation (Chapter 7:3-4) it is written:
“Saying, Do not harm the earth, the sea, or the trees till we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads. And I heard the number of those who were sealed: one hundred and forty-four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel were sealed.”
The meaning of this is that the Elemental Beings need the Power of the purified thoughts of the 144,000—who bear on their foreheads the seal marking them as servants of God—in order to carry out their work!
(The intellect cannot comprehend these connections at all, so don’t even try to use it…)
So immense is the capacity of the human spirit to shape the world, but unfortunately, our narrow-mindedness is equally as great, since we have become slaves to our intellect and emotions. When we look at the world today, we understand that the vast majority of those 144,000 spirits who promised to channel the Power for the transformation of the new world have not awakened at all and have forgotten their promise!
Unfortunately—although the quest for the Truth is inherent to these 144,000—they, too, have become lost in the labyrinth of their intellect, emotions, and ego, or in all the esoteric worlds (which presume to show the way, but do so in vain).
Instead of purifying the world with the Power given to them, they poison it and, thereby, effectively surrender it to the Darkness. Remember: in the earthly world, the more material power a person has, the more people serve him.
But in the spiritual world, it is exactly the opposite. The more spiritual power a person has, the more people he must serve and the greater the responsibility he bears.
Therefore, the self-purification of anyone called to spiritual leadership corrects the world, while his failure destroys it!
Where in the world today can we find the place to which the neutral Power flows most abundantly, as it did in the time of the Great Temple in Jerusalem?
Where is the leadership of the 144,000? And what exactly is required of the 144,000 Called Ones to truly fulfill what they promised?
Even if your intellect does not understand or remember everything you have heard today, if your spirit is awake, it has heard the Call!
And if that is the case, then I invite you to join the international school “Alma School for Humanity” and discover the answers to these great questions—for yourselves!
Amen!
