Weekly Consciousness Tune-Up
March 7th – March 13th
The Weekly Consciousness Tune-Ups are intended to help you focus in on your life, so that you can experience positive changes. However, this week I would like to get you to enlarge that focus to include the world around you.
There is a story of two men rowing a small boat across a lake. Suddenly, one man starts drilling a hole in the bottom. The other man yells, “What are you doing”, and the first replies, “What are you worried about, I’m drilling on my side of the boat!”
Though this answer seems preposterous, the truth is, this is how we think. We do not see the bigger picture of how our actions affect our surroundings.
According to Kabbalah, human consciousness directly affects the physical world we live in. This means that ‘thought pollution’ creates physical pollution.
Water is a prime example of this. Recent scientific discoveries are confirming ancient Kabbalistic teachings that water reflects the consciousness of the human race.
Kabbalah tells us that before the Great Flood described in the Book of Genesis, water was a wondrous and powerful healing agent, and drinking water removed all impurities from the human body. After the Flood, however, water lost its almost unlimited power to extend lives and maintain health. The deeper reason for this change was the negative consciousness of humans.
It is said that the negativity was so great then, that a person would be put to death for performing an act of sharing. This might seem hard to believe, though after perusing the daily headlines, perhaps it’s not.
The mission of the Kabbalah Centre and everything we do is to transform the polluted, negative actions and thoughts of mankind into actions of sharing and Light. As we affect the lives of more and more people, we are helping to transform the physical earth.
This week, by eliminating (or at least reducing) your anger, treating others with human dignity, and meditating on the 72 Name below, you will help awaken and restore the healing powers of the earth’s water, as well as reverse the toll human negativity has taken on all of nature.
All the Best,
Yehuda Berg
I am now switching off destructive thoughts emanating from my ego. My heart is opening and filling with the Light of the Creator. I feel warmth and acceptance—of all people and of myself.
