In this interview with Spanish podcaster, Mercedes León, we talk about economic hard times in Spain, brought on by rampant real estate speculation. Later on in the conversation we switch gears and Mercedes takes us on a wonderful audio tour of her favorite sections of Barcelona. It’s a great interview, if I must say myself.  [...]SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "VEE #035: La fiebre de la propiedad", url: "http://spanish-podcast.com/2008/11/17/vee-035-la-fiebre-de-la-propiedad/" }); Less

On Friday 10.24.2008 I gave an international children’s lesson which was translated from Hebrew into English, Spanish, German, French and Russian. The topic of the lesson was: “We are the generation of correction,” as well as preparation for the Congress that will be held in Israel in February 2009. Our children (the children of the members of our organization all over the world) are the children of the future generation. They study Kabbalah: the creation of the world, its development and the goal it is moving to. They live and grow with this knowledge. As they study the regular school curriculum, they interpret it according to what they learn in Kabbalah. They realistically see themselves in both worlds. Their worldview completely includes the common soul and its current shattered state. They see the events happening in the world as movement toward the souls’ correction, their unification into one whole and the subsequent adhesion with the Creator or Nature. Their interactions and attitudes to themselves and the environment show that they see themselves and the whole world through this picture. They understand how different they are from others and they conceal their knowledge from their classmates in school. They interpret all the phenomena in the world based on the general picture of the universe, with which they grew up. I consider them a miracle in our world! My lessons with them are translated into six languages and broadcasted to children all over the world. Groups of children from our centers worldwide gather together and participate in the lessons together with us in real time. Share This Less
