Altruism – The True Law of Nature
April 23, 2009
The Wisdom of Life Elementary school will educate children according to altruism because these are the true laws of nature. The fact that we are distorting the laws of nature so much in our society, twisting them and existing in opposition to nature – is what is bringing us all the problems we have nowadays. General problems of all of humanity along with the individual problems of each and every one of us. Therefore, we mustn’t think that an egoistic person is succeeding because at the end of the day the accounting in not in his favor.
If we want to give children security and a correct path in life, we must educate them in the correct manner, according to the true meaning of altruism. Being altruistic does not mean distributing your worldly goods to all four corners of the earth. But rather that children will know that bestowing to their fellowman and altruism bring a person to the purpose of creation, to bestowal to the Creator, to equalizing and being in adhesion with Him. We are talking about achieving a spiritual goal through corporal life – that is a person’s purpose. If a child witnesses this entire perspective, and children pick up Kabbalah studies very quickly, then they remain in it and begin bringing it into their life. We do not really understand how clever kids are. The more they hear these things, the more they absorb them and transform them into a way of life. They begin to use this wisdom and its path to view the world.
If a child receives an understanding of why this world exists, why the world goes around, why people make mistakes, and that it is better to live in bestowal than in reception, then a child begins to see the world through this understanding. He sees completely different relationships, and this gives him a different feeling about life.
A child is different than we are. We need to receive this knowledge on ourselves against our nature, forcefully. While a child, from the moment he begins to grow, connects all the things he has heard about the true nature of the world, compared to the misleading society and everything he sees in the world, and then he compares one against the other. This builds him in a wonderful manner.
