The Desire to Control - Spiritual States with Kabbalist Dr. Michael Laitman
Kabbalist Dr. Michael Laitman and Michael Sanilevich discuss the desire to control in this episode of Spiritual States.
What is the historical experience of how people use power over others? Is the “lust for power” innate in every person? How does unlimited power distort the person? What forces govern life? What benefit do we gain by getting to know our inherent nature? What is the “paradox of power?” What was the power structure in ancient Israel? Is power over others the greatest pleasure? What forces do we need to learn to balance us? What is the difference between animals and humans about power and control? How do we need to educate people in relation to power? What does it mean that a leader should see himself under and worse than others? How can one see oneself as lower and worse than others? Why do we need to attain the Upper Force to place ourselves in reality properly? Why is it that the more a person knows the less confident and more doubtful one becomes? What is the right intention for controlling others? Are we more free today than before? What is the only way to raise leaders properly? Are we educated to become dictators or is it something innate in us? Are men or women in power more dangerous? How should we prepare leaders for elections today?
