The future wars will not be between nations or armies. They are called “the wars of the Messiah,” and they will be wars for freedom from our very egoistic nature, which constantly pulls us each away from each other to everyone’s respective self-interests.
The word for Messiah in Hebrew, “Mashiach,” comes from the word for “pulling” (“Limshoch”). It is the force that pulls us out of our egoistic nature. These wars are inner battles in which we stop looking at the world selfishly and stop blaming other people for everything that happens. Instead, we begin to relate everything to laws of nature, which are laws of love and bestowal behind everything taking place in our lives, and we work on correcting our attitude toward these laws, from hatred to love.
If we perceive the world as hostile, unjust, and cruel, and if we feel that everything is organized against us, then in our very perception, the very nature that created and sustains us is the one responsible for all of it. In that sense, nature appears as the source of our suffering, even as our enemy. But this is only because of how we view reality. If I view it differently, then there is no evil or harm in the world except our own very egoism. The entire correction lies within us.
We need to transform our egoistic nature into the quality of love. We look at the world and see enemies, haters, and opposition, but it is a projection of our inner qualities. When we correct ourselves, when we change our attitude from hatred to love, then those very same people whom we perceived as enemies become loving and beloved. The world changes because we ourselves change. The whole war is about clarifying who we really are, and correcting our egoistic quality that seeks to see ourselves as better than everyone else, into an opposite altruistic quality, which is in balance with the altruistic quality of nature’s, and by doing so, we correct ourselves.
These are serious wars, but they are internal. Moreover, we are not thrown into them unprepared. It is not as if a baby is cast into a battlefield. We are gradually being prepared through life itself, through all the states we pass through, until we begin to understand the necessity of this inner struggle. Eventually, we come to want these wars because we recognize that only through them can we be freed from egoism. When we realize their necessity, that is already the beginning of redemption.
