You know, the the most immoral thing I
think that anyone ever did,
>> it's a inflammatory statement and it's
almost impossible that what I'm about to
say could be verified. I think it's one
of the most immoral things.
>> When Stephven Hawking said there is no
heaven, and I'll tell you why it was
evil. Because he was brilliant. He knew
very well how people would take that
statement. and he knew that it was
disingenuous.
Stephven Hawking was an expert in
cosmology in the physical universe. He
said there is no heaven. He knows good
and well that I don't believe that
heaven is some place in the universe.
But when he knows that most people
though when he comes out as an authority
and says there is no heaven. So
basically guys we checked it out. We
scoped out the known universe. There is
no heaven. like it it it's so cynical
because he knows exactly the mistake
that people will make when when they're
listening to him and he did it on
purpose. Obviously, you're not going to
find heaven by flying around the
universe and looking for it. That would
be like saying, "I'm going to chop apart
a piano to find the music." Chopped up
the piano. There's no music in here.
Music doesn't exist.
Where are these worlds? These are not
physical locations. You can't take a
rocket ship and fly to that.
>> But we're saying that that there is
otherness here.
>> So
>> here's the thing. The physical universe
is a manifestation of worlds. The fact
that physicality exists
that is a product of all of these
concealments.
So when we want to try to identify where
do these concealments exist, where do
these states exist and we try to locate
them in the physical universe, what we
what we're forgetting is no, the
physical universe itself is a product of
these concealments.
So where do you find them? I mean they
are ongoing. They are omnipresent.
Everything that we experience is
happening simultaneously on all of these
levels. The problem with embodiment
is that
the soul becomes
uh overwhelmed with physical stimuli to
the extent that that's all we register.
So even though we are experiencing
things in all worlds simultaneously
when we're in our embodied state, we
really can only pay attention to the the
lowest level of it, the physical.
>> For the average person, how would how
would this play out in his day-to-day
life? Does he experience that? Does he
affect these heavenly realms, spiritual
places? For example, if a person gives
charity,
what has he done? Right.
>> Um and you know on the contrary if um
somebody steals
>> right
>> what has what has he done
>> right
>> and and then there's a question of why
>> right okay so first of all yeah one of
the things how it affects a person is
like you're saying the big picture that
you realize that the ramifications of
your actions are not limited to the
physical world. So if I give charity,
what's
>> right? You're not just making the world
a better place, you're making the
world's better places. Uh which is
actually a wild concept that someone in
the lowest world could be improving the
highest world, but you are. That's what
we called uh through mitzvah or mamikus
which means someone does a physical
thing, a good deed, acts of goodness and
kindness in their in their embodied
state in the physical world and it makes
the highest world even more holy than it
already is. It's a cool concept,
>> right?
>> Yeah. But that already leads to the
answer to your question of why this all
exists.
>> Why
>> it all exists for the sake of the lower
world.
The process
is all to get to the end.
The higher worlds themselves serve no
intrinsic purpose. They are a means to
an end.
>> Which is funny because you ask a lot of
religious people like what's the point
of it all? Heaven. You die and go to
heaven. This world is just transitory
and then you die and go to heaven.
That's where it's at. And we actually
say the exact opposite. The higher
worlds which you can call them heaven.
That's fine. Um, spiritual realms are
not the end all and be all. They exist
only for the sake of the physical realm.
Um,
how's that?
>> Because the infinite
to truly be infinite
wants to be expressed in the finite. If
the infinite can only be like be we said
before God created the world oneness was
pretty apparent. There was no otherness.
So that's like infinity by default,
>> right?
>> It's not real infinity. Real infinity is
where God creates the finite. He creates
the other. He creates even something so
finite and other as to be physical
and even more than physical to be uh to
have an ego and have free choice even to
the extent where the option exists to
deny him and then for him to be able to
be found in that that's the ultimate
infinity.
So, and you're going to ask, well, why
does God want that? And that we have no
answer to because
we say
uh on a desire, you can't ask why. And
it's not because you have no right to
ask. How dare you ask? It's God's
personal desire. What kind of aud? No.
The reason that you can't ask is because
the nature of desire is suprational. So,
you can ask, but there's no answer. Uh,
it's not logic. Logic has an answer. Why
is this like this? Because of this.
