The Thought of Creation

By Amite Neman

This book was written after many years of research and comparison between the Torah, Kabbalah, and science books. I started on this subject following a personal crisis. I had the opportunity of seeing people and phenomena beyond those experienced in the daily life. "Go out of Egypt," I was told. The meaning of it was to step out of the material routine, and start dealing with spirituality.

I tried to examine all new information and study on the topic of the creation of the world, and the connection between the Torah and science. I searched for proofs to this connection in the most thorough way possible. Was the world created by accident, or with an initial thought? What was the world created for? Is the Big Bang the beginning of creation, or was the world created much earlier? What is the universe made of? What maintains it? What will happen to the universe in the future? When was man created? Was man created from the monkey? Is there any kind of connection between all of humanity? How can you even research creation? Can you possibly prove the existence of God? How can you even reach Him? Who can provide answers to that?

The answers to these questions are "hidden" in the Torah. The Torah is a secret language. The Hebrew word for "world", Olam, hints on the words: Hidden â Ha'alem, Ne'lam. Scientists study the world every day, and the results of their studies are surprisingly similar to the prophecies of the Torah. Jewish thinkers, world intellectuals, and tzadikim, are able to find a connection with the hidden worlds. They told us that there is a Creator to the world â God. The world was created with initial thought: The thought of creation. Man has a special and unique role in the world; to connect with the Creator by thinking of, and helping his fellow men, "Love your neighbor as yourself". The nation of Israel is a "bridge" that connects the material world with the Creator. Will we successfully climb the right bridge? Will man connect the world and humanity? Will the nation of Israel successfully carry out its task? "Love your neighbor as yourself"... this is how the soul is built. Let's connect to it... Good luck.

Preface

Dear readers,

The writing of this book is the result of a deep and great inner need. One which grew in me for quite a while. A need to prove that God exists in this world.

My interest in Kabbalah started when I purchased Yigal Arica's book, Kabbalah in Clear Light. I read the entire book a few years ago on Yom Kippur and it awoke in me a great interest regarding the spiritual worlds. This interest led me to the Bnei Baruch Kabbalah group, headed by Rabbi Leitman, a man of science who became a spiritualist in Kabbalah.

I spent several years hearing and reading the letters of Rabbi Ashlag, the Zohar, and different articles about the topic of the union (Ahdut). Following my exposure to these texts, I have decided to examine how the world of physical science connects to the world of Torah, along with the Kabbalah and the spiritual worlds.

My aim in this book, as a faithful member of the Israeli people, is to strengthen the belief in the existence of God. To this end, I use scientific and technological information and research to provide tangible evidence that a higher spiritual entity does exist, in other words God. This spirit both operates this world, and is also its providence. It is my aim that the reader will see, think and believe in God.

I have experienced many events, personally, which made me see the existence of the spiritual entity. My story will be told here without personal details. It is my aim to strengthen the belief in God and not to draw attention to myself.

I will describe eight enlightening events that occurred in my personal life:

First event – I was very sick and appealed to a cabalist rabbi. I asked for his help and he told me, Make an exodus from Egypt, it reforms the soul. I tried to understand the meaning of this. He told me, "To exit the sorrows¹ of the material and move toward spirituality, it will help the body to heal. This is how I came to understand that a higher spiritual power pushes" me to spiritual profundity, and this is a mission which was assigned to me in this world. After I had surgery, I grew more interested in the world of Kabbalah. I found real pleasure in comparing the Torah and the Kabbalah. In this comparison I discovered an amazing parallel between the two fields.

Second event – All the events that happened to me (in the past), happen to me (in the present, and will happen to me (in the future), appear in two books. The Torah and the Etz Hayim². I received many clues when I discussed with tzadikim, which I approached for counseling, and they assisted me in managing my daily routine. Things that were said to me (about me, my family, and even about animals) turned out to be true and became real and actual. It appeared to me that a man that is a real tzadic, like a grand rabbi that knows the secrets of the Torah, such a man can read and identify the root of the soul of every Jew in the Torah, the Etz Hayim, and additional sacred books. This he can do by the person's birth date, address, phone number and additional personal details. A true tzadic of stature can identify where and when the soul of the Jew came to this world. He knows how to guide that person and prepare him for the way, literally, his life in the world. Such a tzadik can reveal facts and events that happened to the person who came for counseling. He can also warn him of possible dangers. He can preform spiritual action such as prayer or channeling, and guide the person on how to conduct things better, and even positively change a person's fate. A real spiritual person can see the past, present and future of a person. He can hear what the person thinks, know how he feels, and examine his conduct in the future. Therefore, he can guide this person on how to act. Spiritual men can also contact family members of the person and assist them during the guidance.

Third event – Using a dream I recognized sparks of the soul of my family members and me. The soul has the ability of appearing as an ethereal body, through a dream. I could recognize a familiar figure, which is a spark of the same soul from which someone in my family was created. During this time, I learned to identify additional sparks. When I talked with the figure from my family, I felt a kind of spiritual connection and intimate closeness. When I met another figure, in a social situation, I felt the same spiritual connection and intimate closeness as I feel with my family. The tzadik I counseled with, when I told him about the figure I met, said that: One thing I can tell you about her, your relative…. In fact, he told me that my relative and the glowing figure, both come from the same spiritual source. A few years later I saw this closeness in a dream. In other words, the source of the two – my relative and my friend – are from the same soul, even though they are two separate women. When I read and studied the structure of "the soul of Adam Kadmon³", which was scattered to 600,000 souls and each soul with different sparks, I could feel it on my flesh. My relative received while dreaming, information about another family member (life/death). It was an amazing thing, which cannot be explained through natural means, only through communication with spiritual forces.

Fourth event – I was given a chance to see an ethereal body of a relative, which gave me a certain message. I was frightened, but got a full explanation to the phenomena by a spiritual man, and relaxed.

Fifth event – In the middle of a dream I saw a figure that looked just like me when I was young (today I am over 50). This figure assisted me in climbing to the top of the trees. According to my interpretation, it was my soul connecting with me in the middle of a dream.

Sixth event – I had another experience sitting in front of my computer screen. Suddenly the screen, during Screen Saver mode, turned to a turquoise-blue color. On the screen were tiny short black lines, moving around, as one black line turned into a black circle. The little black circle turned into a black figure of a man. The feet of the figure grew and the body got longer and longer. The figure stepped toward the corner of the screen. Next to me was a little girl, I asked her questions about the passage I was reading. She replied and the figure in the computer responded to her words. She heard a small voice coming from the computer, and I heard it too. The girl said to me: Every time you ask me something and I'll reply – he too will reply. She heard and felt his response to her words. When I returned from the girl's house to my own, I opened the book The Coming Revolution by Rabbi Zamir Cohen (2005) and saw the exact same figure but this time it was colorful. The figure described in the book is a kind of a picture of the spiritual man, the figure that I saw was all black.

Seventh event – During my work I had to mediate between two persons in a dispute. A relative of mine suddenly appeared in the image of a hand. This hand was seen by one of the persons (not me) and she was told, Don't worry, it will be OK. At that moment, the other person felt a pressing at the sternum. At this time they became very excited, but I didn't see or feel anything.

Eighth event – In the middle of a dream I saw a relative who had passed away. In the dream I saw the round earth and a choir was singing the phrase No, don't go away from me, don't go away from me, as a strip of the earth is moving to the right. My relative seemed as a figure that is plugged within earth. I understood that the singing moves the universe. In my flesh I will see God said Chazal. Why does the soul fill the body? Suffers it, sees and cannot be seen so does God fill the world, suffers it, sees and is unseen (Midrash Tehilim 103, 5)⁴. This event brought me to reach two conclusions: One, ). The second is that there's a guiding hand in the world, and events which I experienced in the past are directly connected to events which I am experiencing in the present and will probably experience in the future. I felt that I needed to investigate and find out what is the goal of all these events. These events awakened many questions in me: What is my role in the world? What is the role of man in the world? How should man operate in the world? How should he act in order to rightly conduct his role in the world? These and other questions led me to the decision of writing this book.

You don't have to believe me, but it would be interesting to read about it. Wouldn't it? This is why I've decided to write a book, in which I will try to bring before you testimonies of different people. Scientists, doctors, researchers, rabbis, tzadikim, reporters and people from all walks of life. Some of them experienced metaphysical experiences which are beyond the powers of nature.

How did I start writing? I started with many questions. I told my children, and one of them immediately responded: "Mom, the Lubavitcher Rebbe wrote about it. Go to the Igrot Kodesh⁵ and ask him." I wrote a request for the book Igrot Kodesh. I referred a question to the Lubavitcher Rebbe: Am I a squashed fly, can I dare and write a book? Especially a book in which I intend to connect the bible – literally the interpretors and the commentators and tzadikim and Kabbalah, the world of nature and science? The answer I received was positive, and it said: "In a world with great darkness, even a tiny light can scare the darkness away. I was very excited. I understood that I am a tiny light, and even though I am a regular human being," nonsecular and not a huge tzadika, just a person who really wants to: I have the power to act.

In the past, the Lubavitcher Rebbe came to me in a dream. He appeared through a strong wind that came close to me, a thing which caused me great excitement and awoke in me the will to improve and become worthy of this kind of revelation.

This revelation, the inner need in me to read a lot, to discover the similarity between the spiritual worlds and our material world. A need to affect and change, first myself and then those around me. The personal events, some very hard and some only shook me, these brought me to write this book. Hoping that in doing so I will assist in strengthening the good in the world.

I hope that you will derive great pleasure from reading this book, as much as I enjoyed writing it. Together all of us will strengthen the good and the light in the world.

I take this opportunity to thank all those that assisted in my writing this book.

The Bnei Baruch group and the center for Kabbalah, from which I received books, articles, and even purchased The Zohar, from whom I learned a great deal.

To the people of Chabad, from which I regularly receive the Dvar Malchus leaflets. From Chabad I purchased great books of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, and books of the Kabbalist David Toledo, from which I learned a great deal about the principles of Kabbalah and with my own eyes saw the application of these principles.

To Bar-Ilan University for the enriching lectures on spiritual matters and Kabbalah.

To Eli Reifman, Dr. Sheli Goldberg, Dr. Avi Elkayam, and Dr. Shahar Zadok.

To Esti Kamai, my music teacher, who knows how to talk about the connection between matter and soul, through beautiful songs and words that have light.

⁶. The printing of the book reflects the transition between the spiritual and the material. This transition is symbolized by the letter Tav. Chava, thank you from the heart, in hope of continual work in mutual cooperation for valued goals, let us help in promoting light and goodness in the world.

A special thank you to Ahuva Levin, for the editing of the book and its paging. A special thank you to Ahuva Levin, for the editing of the book and its paging.

In my dream I am thrown in a foul sewage pipe.

My failures and sins are lying with me in a thick and black puddle.

And there before me, an old man crawls,
