At this time on earth, something new is attempting to be born-a higher consciousness is struggling to emerge. This consciousness, and the force behind it, is coming from the upper World of Creation. In the Kabbalah, the mystical tradition within Judaism, this world is called Olam haBeriah

It is a consciousness that has the potential to uplift and transform, sweeping away our traditional concepts of duality, division, and separation, in a great spiritual awakening. In this birthing process there are both positive and negative forces at work and there is obvious destruction. The coming times, however, need not bring unending suffering or relentless violence.

It is a central teaching of Kabbalah that, in addition to influencing our physical world, every soul has the ability to influence the spiritual worlds above. These worlds play an important role in determining unfolding events on earth. Thus each one of us can effect the future in ways far beyond what we ordinarily think possible.

The forces being unleashed upon our planet are beyond the control of any institution, state or government, and it is now up to each of us to direct the future. No matter who we are, what we have been taught to believe, or how insignificant we may feel, this is the real purpose of our lives; this is why we are here.
