will AI understand us better than how we understand ourselves?

Will it be intuitive enough to know alone?
Will it be inquisitive to ask questions until it understands what we really want?
Or will it continue as usual?

Clear mind

Once my mind is clear you don’t want to mess with me. (Scott Adams)

A cleared mind has made the decision that no matter the consequences it has its purpose and path.

That place of checking and figuring and wondering have gone. Now is that time of action.

Clear minds cut through bullshit better then anything, just be careful that it isn’t just an adrenaline high.

The balance

We hear people wanting a balance in life. A balance between what exactly?
A balance like the YinYang? A balance between negatives like good and evil?

Isn’t that nice? Don’t we enjoy hearing things like this?
Don’t we all just want to HAVE OUR CAKE AND EAT IT (TOO).
Are we willing at all to hear the truth?

God is willing to show us his truth. He is willing to enter our hearts and open them. If we are willing…

When we are born, our humanity/humaneness is born with us. God also plants within each of us his spirit.
Our existence is to embrace his spirit as the basis of our existence and completely put aside our frail and lying humanity.
There is no balance between our humanity and God’s spirit.
There is only ongoing war with no peace-fires.
Satan sells us balance, telling us that we can have both spiritually and humanity.
But only if we forgo completely to God’s spirit can we start to live.
And it’s not "just once" It is an ongoing process.

“Look! I have set before you today life and prosperity on the one hand, and death and disaster on the other.

What I am commanding you today is to love the LORD your God, to walk in his ways, and to obey his commandments, his statutes, and his ordinances. Then you will live and become numerous and the LORD your God will bless you in the land that you are about to possess.(Deut 30:15-16)

רְאֵ֨ה נָתַ֤תִּי לְפָנֶ֙יךָ֙ הַיֹּ֔ום אֶת־הַֽחַיִּ֖ים וְאֶת־הַטֹּ֑וב וְאֶת־הַמָּ֖וֶת וְאֶת־הָרָֽע׃ אֲשֶׁ֨ר אָֽנֹכִ֣י מְצַוְּךָ֮ הַיֹּום֒ לְאַֽהֲבָ֞ה אֶת־יְהֺוָ֤ה אֱלֹהֶ֙יךָ֙ לָלֶ֣כֶת בִּדְרָכָ֔יו וְלִשְׁמֹ֛ר מִצְֺותָ֖יו וְחֻקֹּתָ֥יו וּמִשְׁפָּטָ֑יו וְחָיִ֣יתָ וְרָבִ֔יתָ וּבֵֽרַכְךָ֙ יְהֺוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֔יךָ בָּאָ֕רֶץ אֲשֶׁר־אַתָּ֥ה בָא־שָׁ֖מָּה לְרִשְׁתָּֽהּ׃(דברים פרק ל פסוק טו-טז)

Levitation

From Wikipedia:

Levitation (physics), the process by which an object is suspended against gravity, in a stable position without solid physical contact
Levitation (paranormal), the claimed paranormal phenomenon of levitation, occurring without any scientific explanation
Levitation (illusion), an illusion where a magician levitates somebody or something
Levitation of saints, a mystical phenomenon attributed to some saints.

I have a history of dreams with myself floating in the air. This morning again I was woken after such a dream.

Life is normal, I just can float about. The weight of gravity effects me as I please it to, or not.

Is it that I am completely free of the pressures of this world? No there here, but I am free to accept them or decide to ignore them.

When God is my rock of ages. My existence is totally dependent on him and nothing else. When walking into the furnace of fire is not what fears me, but the fear of walking into an existence which is godless.

Thank you God for you have shown and will continue to show me your path. Thank you God for giving me from your strength to choose you.

You must keep carefully all these commandments I am giving you today so that you may live, increase in number, and go in and occupy the land that the LORD promised to your ancestors.

כָּל־הַמִּצְוָ֗ה אֲשֶׁ֨ר אָֽנֹכִ֧י מְצַוְּךָ֛ הַיֹּ֖ום תִּשְׁמְר֣וּן לַֽעֲשֹׂ֑ות לְמַ֨עַן תִּֽחְי֜וּן וּרְבִיתֶ֗ם וּבָאתֶם֙ וִֽירִשְׁתֶּ֣ם אֶת־הָאָ֔רֶץ אֲשֶׁר־נִשְׁבַּ֥ע יְהֺוָ֖ה לַֽאֲבֹֽתֵיכֶֽם׃(דברים פרק ח פסוק א)

Defamation, persecution and discrimination of minorities remembering day

I expect that Yom Hashoa v’Hagvura will be replaced by this.The Holocaust isn’t "in", nether is National identity.

The creating of the push for Holocaust remembrance, was to prove that Israel has a right to exist. Those who pushed it no longer claim that.

When is dialog not an efficient technique in stopping aggression.

Dialog may not be an efficient technique in stopping aggression in certain situations. Here are a few examples:

Immediate physical danger: If a person is in immediate physical danger, attempting to engage in dialog may not be the best approach. In such cases, it is important to prioritize safety and take immediate action to protect oneself or others.

Extreme emotions: When a person is experiencing extreme emotions such as intense anger or rage, they may not be able to engage in dialog effectively. It may be necessary to wait until the person has calmed down before attempting to engage in a conversation.

Mental health issues: In cases where a person has mental health issues such as psychosis or severe depression, dialog may not be effective in stopping their aggression. These individuals may require professional help and support to manage their condition.

Power imbalance: When there is a significant power imbalance between the parties involved, dialog may not be an effective technique in stopping aggression. This could be the case in situations where there is an abusive relationship, workplace bullying, or systemic oppression.

In general, it is important to assess the situation and determine the best approach for stopping aggression. In some cases, dialog may be an effective technique, while in others, more immediate action or professional support may be required.

והיו לעץ אחד

חלק מהותי בגאולת ישראל וגאולת העולם כולו היא שישראל יכריזו “יהוה אלהינו יהוה אחד” באחדות.

כפי שהיה במתן תורה. וַיִּסְע֣וּ מֵֽרְפִידִ֗ים וַיָּבֹ֨אוּ֙ מִדְבַּ֣ר סִינַ֔י וַיַּֽחֲנ֖וּ בַּמִּדְבָּ֑ר וַיִּֽחַן־שָׁ֥ם יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל נֶ֥גֶד הָהָֽר׃ (שמות פרק יט פסוק ב) “ויחן שם ישראל”

הכוחות שדורשים לגרום שעם ישראל יהיה שסוע ומפולג יש לא מעט. יש שדיברו בעבר על “מדינת יהודה” מול “מדינת ישראל”. היום הנסיונות באים מכיוונים אחרים.

יש העומדים על פילוג כמו פרופ’ רחל אליאור “אתם לא אחים שלנו!” כשאחרים המשעשים ב“מדינת יהודה ומדינת ישראל – פתרון 4 המדינות”

אבל דבר אלוהים דורש אחדות.

דַּבֵּ֣ר אֲלֵהֶ֗ם כֹּֽה־אָמַר֮ אֲדֹנָ֣י יֱהֹוִה֒ הִנֵּה֩ אֲנִ֨י לֹקֵ֜חַ אֶת־עֵ֤ץ יֹוסֵף֨ אֲשֶׁ֣ר בְּיַד־אֶפְרַ֔יִם וְשִׁבְטֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל חֲבֵרָ֑֯ו וְנָֽתַתִּי֩ אֹותָ֨ם עָלָ֜יו אֶת־עֵ֣ץ יְהוּדָ֗ה וַֽעֲשִׂיתִם֨ לְעֵ֣ץ אֶחָ֔ד וְהָי֥וּ אֶחָ֖ד בְּיָדִֽי׃

וְהָי֨וּ הָֽעֵצִ֜ים אֲשֶׁ֨ר תִּכְתֹּ֧ב עֲלֵיהֶ֛ם בְּיָֽדְךָ֖ לְעֵֽינֵיהֶֽם׃ וְדַבֵּ֣ר אֲלֵיהֶ֗ם כֹּֽה־אָמַר֮ אֲדֹנָ֣י יֱהֹוִה֒ הִנֵּ֨ה אֲנִ֤י לֹקֵחַ֨ אֶת־בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל מִבֵּ֥ין הַגֹּויִ֖ם אֲשֶׁ֣ר הָֽלְכוּ־שָׁ֑ם וְקִבַּצְתִּ֤י אֹתָם֙ מִסָּבִ֔יב וְהֵֽבֵאתִ֥י אֹותָ֖ם אֶל־אַדְמָתָֽם׃
וְעָשִׂ֣יתִי אֹ֠תָם לְגֹ֨וי אֶחָ֤ד בָּאָ֨רֶץ֙ בְּהָרֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל וּמֶ֧לֶךְ אֶחָ֛ד יִֽהְיֶ֥ה לְכֻלָּ֖ם לְמֶ֑לֶךְ וְלֹ֤א יִֽהְיֻה֯־עֹוד֙ לִשְׁנֵ֣י גֹויִ֔ם וְלֹ֨א יֵחָ֥צוּ עֹ֛וד לִשְׁתֵּ֥י מַמְלָכֹ֖ות עֹֽוד׃ וְלֹ֧א יִֽטַּמְּא֣וּ עֹ֗וד בְּגִלּֽוּלֵיהֶם֨ וּבְשִׁקּ֣וּצֵיהֶ֔ם וּבְכֹ֖ל פִּשְׁעֵיהֶ֑ם וְהֹֽושַׁעְתִּ֣י אֹותָ֗ם מִכֹּ֤ל מֹֽושְׁבֹֽתֵיהֶם֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר חָֽטְא֣וּ בָהֶ֔ם וְטִֽהַרְתִּ֤י אֹותָם֙ וְהָֽיוּ־לִ֣י לְעָ֔ם וַֽאֲנִ֕י אֶהְיֶ֥ה לָהֶ֖ם לֵֽאלֹהִֽים׃ וְעַבְדִּ֤י דָוִד֨ מֶ֣לֶךְ עֲלֵיהֶ֔ם וְרֹועֶ֥ה אֶחָ֖ד יִֽהְיֶ֣ה לְכֻלָּ֑ם וּבְמִשְׁפָּטַ֣י יֵלֵ֔כוּ וְחֻקֹּותַ֥י יִשְׁמְר֖וּ וְעָשׂ֥וּ אֹותָֽם׃ וְיָֽשְׁב֣וּ עַל־הָאָ֗רֶץ אֲשֶׁ֤ר נָתַ֨תִּי֨ לְעַבְדִּ֣י לְיַֽעֲקֹ֔ב אֲשֶׁ֥ר יָֽשְׁבוּ־בָ֖הּ אֲבֹֽותֵיכֶ֑ם וְיָֽשְׁב֣וּ עָלֶ֡יהָ הֵ֠מָּה וּבְנֵיהֶ֞ם וּבְנֵ֤י בְנֵיהֶם֙ עַד־עֹולָ֔ם וְדָוִ֣ד עַבְדִּ֔י נָשִׂ֥יא לָהֶ֖ם לְעֹולָֽם׃ וְכָֽרַתִּ֤י לָהֶם֙ בְּרִ֣ית שָׁלֹ֔ום בְּרִ֥ית עֹולָ֖ם יִֽהְיֶ֣ה אֹותָ֑ם וּנְתַתִּים֨ וְהִרְבֵּיתִ֣י אֹותָ֔ם וְנָֽתַתִּ֧י אֶת־מִקְדָּשִׁ֛י בְּתֹוכָ֖ם לְעֹולָֽם׃
(יחזקאל לז:יט-לז:כו)

כי משכנראה מפספסים כולם היא שאין ברירה, אלוהים רואה אותנו כעם אחד ומטפל לא דתיים לחוד ולא חילונים לחוד לא בימיניים לחוד ולא בשמלנים לחודף אלא בעם ישראל עם אחד.

אַל־תִּקְצֹ֤ף יְהֹוָה֨ עַד־מְאֹ֔ד וְאַל־לָעַ֖ד תִּזְכֹּ֣ר עָֺו֑ן הֵ֥ן הַבֶּט־נָ֖א עַמְּךָ֥ כֻלָּֽנוּ׃ (ישעיהו פרק סד פסוק ח)

חייבים להתפלל לזה “והיו לעץ אחד”

“You know nothing, …”

You have learned a lot and are full of intellect, wisdom, knowledge and understanding.

But you still know nothing.

There are other ways of knowing things besides these.

Intuition: Intuition is a type of knowing that comes from within, often described as a gut feeling or a hunch. It is not based on conscious reasoning, but rather a sense of inner knowing.

Experience: Experience is a powerful way of knowing, as it involves direct interaction with the world around us. Through experience, we gain practical knowledge and learn how things work in real-world situations.

Emotion: Emotions can provide insight into our inner world and how we relate to the world around us. Sometimes our emotional reactions can provide us with a deep understanding of a situation or person.

Perception: Perception is the way we interpret sensory information from the world around us. It involves making meaning out of what we see, hear, touch, taste, and smell.

Imagination: Imagination is a creative way of knowing that involves the ability to form mental images or concepts that are not present in our immediate environment. It can help us to generate new ideas, explore possibilities, and solve problems in novel ways.

But you still know nothing.

Some you attempt to enlarge from learning, reflection, and practice. This involves seeking out information, analyzing it, and making connections between different pieces of information to deepen your understanding. While it is possible to develop and enhance all of them through intentional effort and practice.

You still know nothing.

Even using all these different ways of knowing and working them together to complement each other to provide a more comprehensive understanding of the world and our place in it.

You still know nothing.

Until God shows you his place, where it is and how he wants you to be there. What could you know?

You and your household must eat them annually before the LORD your God in the place he chooses. (Deut15:20)

לִפְנֵי֩ יְהֺוָ֨ה אֱלֹהֶ֤יךָ תֹֽאכֲלֶ֨נּוּ֙ שָׁנָ֣ה בְשָׁנָ֔ה בַּמָּקֹ֖ום אֲשֶׁר־יִבְחַ֣ר יְהֺוָ֑ה אַתָּ֖ה וּבֵיתֶֽךָ׃
(דברים פרק טו פסוק כ)

זכריה פרק יד פסוק יב

וְזֹ֣את ׀ תִּֽהְיֶ֣ה הַמַּגֵּפָ֗ה אֲשֶׁ֨ר יִגֹּ֤ף יְהֹוָה֙ אֶת־כָּל־הָ֣עַמִּ֔ים אֲשֶׁ֥ר צָֽבְא֖וּ עַל־יְרֽוּשָׁלִָ֑ם הָמֵ֣ק ׀ בְּשָׂרֹ֗ו וְהוּא֙ עֹמֵ֣ד עַל־רַגְלָ֔יו וְעֵינָיו֙ תִּמַּ֣קְנָה בְחֹֽרֵיהֶ֔ן וּלְשֹׁונֹ֖ו תִּמַּ֥ק בְּפִיהֶֽם׃
(זכריה פרק יד פסוק יב)

האחיזה בפשט מפספס כל כך הרבה.

חרון יהוה על כל האמים הנותנים יד נגד גילוי רוחו, מחשבותיהם תבלן, תפיסתם תכזב, והדברים שלהם עוד עומדים תתפקד. ויראו כי חרון יהוה עליהם.

"The LORD’s wrath is upon those who dared to raise a hand against The Spirit of God. Their mind will deteriorate, their perception will wither away, and their words will disintegrate while they still stand. Beware, for the wrath of the LORD is upon them. #BibleVerse #TheSpiritofGod"
