Is There Something Such as an Evil Eye?
Yes, the evil eye exists, but not in the naïve sense that someone simply looks at you in a certain way and something bad happens. It is much deeper than that.
We are all connected by our desires in a single, enormous desire that was created by a higher force of love, bestowal, and connection that dwells in nature. This is a unified system. Therefore, through our desires, each of us influences everyone else from the root of their soul. When we think badly about someone, when we harbor envy, hatred, rejection, we harm both them and ourselves. We act through our desire, and desire is a force.
Most of this happens involuntarily. People mostly do not realize it, but why is there so much negative phenomena in our world? It is because we think negatively about each other. This is the evil eye. Does anyone genuinely wish good to another without calculation? Of course not. Our entire world lives on rejection, on people pushing one another away internally.
From the outset, we are not directed at goodness. We are not built with a natural inclination to care for one another. If someone behaves well toward us, we might respond well, but only under certain conditions. By default, we have no good feelings toward others. Why should we? Our nature is egoistic, i.e., a desire to receive at the expense of others.
It is unpleasant to admit this, but a person is created in evil. This is our foundation. There is no escaping it. Only a very precise form of education can raise us out of this egoistic swamp, to pull us out, cleanse us, and then begin to fill us with something good. Without undergoing such a form of education, which is a correction process, our inner gaze remains negative.
This is precisely what the wisdom of Kabbalah deals with. It teaches how to transform the evil intention, this negative gaze on which our world currently exists, into a good one. It is a method of correction, of how to elevate a person from a world built on rejection into a world built on benevolent connection. That new perception, that good gaze, is called “the spiritual world.”

What Can We Learn from Wolves About Taking Care of Each Other?
In a wolf pack, the order of movement is very revealing. At the front walk three old or weak wolves. Behind them go several of the strongest. Then comes the main body of the pack that is being protected, followed again by strong wolves. And the leader walks last, making sure that no one falls behind. This shows that being a leader does not mean standing in front and showing oneself. The leader is the one who ensures that everyone arrives safely.
The main responsibility of a leader is to care for the safety of every member of the group without exception, including the weakest and the elderly who walk in front. This is precisely how a real leader is evaluated. Their strength is not measured by dominance but by their ability to protect, guide, and carry responsibility for everyone.
Among wolves this works naturally. For people, it is much more difficult. Humanity has greatly corrupted itself over thousands of years. In animal packs, instinct works in a clear and precise way. There is an inner understanding of necessity. They live according to nature, and therefore their organization supports survival.
We humans, however, often behave differently. Everyone tries to escape responsibility, to avoid being accountable, to let someone else deal with the problems. A person says, “It has nothing to do with me,” and looks for a way out instead of taking responsibility.
However, if we want a healthy society, we need to learn from nature. A leader needs to see everyone and walk behind them, ensuring that no one is left behind. We must build such a community, a “pack,” so to speak, where people willingly join because they see that everyone cares for one another.
When I say “we,” I mean a group that lives according to these principles. People will come to such a group because they will feel that there is mutual responsibility, that everyone is protected and supported. There is no other path. If we want to preserve ourselves, raise our children, and provide security for the elderly, for women, and for the next generation, we need to organize our society in this way.
