today's Wednesday and
it's it's the third day after was
Sunday since the last time I recorded we
had the the end of my
the
highlight and of course we've also
all
experienced the
incredible that we as one huge family in
particular have been going
through and and the has been severely
challenged by these by these incredible
tests
I want to mention that for the last I
don't know how many weeks we've been
learning the myor of the from the summer
of and then into the
of and we continuously talk talked about
the Yumer war and how the's attitude was
that the reator reacted that incredible
T and that was an unbelievable T was D
through one of the stories which
actually read theim from in one of the
last classes I gave you in the
my was that that refus to take a Pion
when he was offered a
Pion and I'm not going to let you alter
my attitude
of um with your own heaviness and then
and he protested the fact that
the are not providing Clarity to their
and to the new generation about the
attitude
of
and heals and solves all problems and as
the spoke in the
of that year which was three days into
the war that how could we sit in when
some place else there's Jewish people
are at War and it was a terrible
terrible War and the
said that the fact that is happening in
a time when we don't say is a message
from hasem that's phrase It's a message
from that from the day before till the
end of we don't
say this can be
overcome and there's no question in my
mind this is at least I should say no
question in my heart that this has to be
the approach now we have to engage in
this
Challenge and Hashem has to give the
Jewish people the courage and the
strength and the will
to do what they need to do to make sure
that the Jewish people in are safe in a
way they don't have to look over their
shoulders and as the spoke so many times
about the idea of finishing what you
start and not to show weakness not to
bend from pressures that certainly are
going to come from the
outside and to remember
that it's not we're not the ones who do
these things does but we have to do our
part
and we have to do it in a way that shows
our belief in the abish and in his
protection
and this will be the last time the
Jewish people have to shed tears and we
should
have and we should continue growing and
we continue
growing simply by growing
go and certainly gives and he makes the
which is an even higher
M now I'm determined to teach teaching
my modm and teaching them with the same
Spirit another words
um we're going on we're continuing not
way that's not aware of what's going on
but with and with and with trust that is
g to
make so we're learning the second class
on the
of the second day of in
um we already had one class on this m
which I gave you the day before sh I
believe and we learned the middle of the
in the middle of
theed and he explained what
means means even in the very highest m
and means that the Jewish people connect
even the highest M of shame to what's
even higher than shame what's even
higher
than
and the only way to be able to to add in
terms is
through and certainly to be to bring
forward it's above any kind of any kind
of form that it should be it should
bring Holiness in a revealed way to the
to the of the relationship but the world
it's only through this we learned in the
previous class now we're going to learn
the beginning end of this m and it's
clearly continuation of the M before and
it's also a SE after if you look at the
differ the way they divide I'm saying
that all
three and
then which said
to and the basic
them he starts off with the idea
of he very very quickly goes on to idea
of elevating physical things as you see
at the end of today's class at the end
of today's this two M the lower M when
physical
things explained at length in the
previous and when you do
physical himself as the is going to say
on the very top of page 24 in the name
of the that the is the not it comes from
the yes it is the yes and when we show
that it is Godly we're revealing the yes
of the
yes and of course in this particular you
have the additional aspect of
sim not that s is
reveals and the now this is already now
interpretation this is
conjecture
the you see in the next is going to
raise up all in a very interesting and a
very unusual way the M after this one is
almost
[Music]
like but the
of
having within
themselves other and the reveals it so
the message is clear that
find said in the previous it
affects we're going to start from the
beginning of the and we're going to
learn the first two pages page 18 19 the
very top of page 20 and then we'll go to
the bottom of page 23 and everything is
numbered so we're holding number
18 number 18 Till 23 till I'm sorry
till till um 26 number the end of the M
which is number 27 in other words the
beginning and the
end but before we do one more point of
introduction in the previous m
the
spoke about two translations of the word
v the first that that's a commandment
you should love your godah commands to
love
the and the second is a promise you will
love now typically these two
interpretations are seen as a graduation
first you work to love with your
unlimited powers and when you graduate
from that you're
the
like it says
in but also the in the in
the that's a culmination after your you
do
an which is the
of to the
promised but here flipped it on the
other side turn it upside down and he
said that the Commandment of a is the
only from
the and the promise for
is and he explained why because a
promise means for something that by
yourself you'll never be able to get you
won't be able to get it in the typical
fashion which is
called you won't even be able to get it
in the atypical fashion of the idea
of that after you
have they reciprocate his Blessing for
our a in accordance with our then they
able to give us us something
Transcendent beyond
[Music]
our here it's a promise because there's
no way we could earn it directly or
indirectly and not
even which
is and therefore the only we have gives
us and what's the that when loves not
just his
also with his animal soul and his animal
soul and then the immediately says this
doesn't only mean the animal Soul it
means physical things which is why MIT
physical things like the physical the
physical the
physical
so
lights which are hard than Lights
of the way he explains it is because the
lights of defined by the the K defined
what the is and the lights
of the themselves defin the simply acts
as a passive medium to bring in the
forward but the comes as the is and in
today's class you're going to see and he
did to some extent explain it in the
previous class as well that it's not
just so in this also we're going to have
this notion of a commandment and a
promise the Commandment is going to
be you're commanded to sit in a now in
this scheme of last M you would say that
means you're sitting only with
your is not a command it's a promise and
according to the scheme of the previous
M that's going on the sitting in
the but this m says different thing it's
based
on the lower levels of the and is a
promise that the higher
levels which is called y are also
brought into the Su through them and
it's also a promise so in one way this
mid is very consistent with the previous
M just like in the previous M there's a
lower level of love which is a
commandment and a higher level of love
which is a promise so in this m you have
a lower level of sitting in a Suka which
is a commandment and a higher level of
sitting in a Suka which is a promise the
difference was that the previous M the
higher love which is a promise is about
fighting with
theam in this might the higher level of
sitting in a which is a promise has do
with which is above the Goof and in some
cases above the all together and I don't
think the two things are contradictory I
think they're quite compatible
because one causes the
next promises him promis him that he's
going to reveal
this explained in the
previous so let's start with that
background
okay is the promise and we
begin you should sit in seven days call
all the citizens of Israel the
word will
sit 30 years
ago 1943 44 in the Tash which is the
middle of the war said on this actually
looked up
the he asks a few questions first of
all why is there a general commandment
general means it speaks to all the
Jewish people as a
unit if you're a Jew you're being
told then he speaks to a particular
segment of the Jewish people a slice of
the Jewish people that are called e
which We're translating again as
Citizens
will
second so even if you want to speak
about the Jewish people collectively and
then you want to speak about this
subgroup
called all the Jewish people sit in the
including whatever means and again we're
transing citizen
but the need to say a second time is
redundant that already says you should
sit in the and even though the T seems
to divide the Jewish people up into two
subgroups
all of the Jewish people and it should
say the only
ones the have asked a second
question further asks in
the why is it necessary to single out
this subgroup of Jewish people that are
called e which We're translating as
Citizens and identify them distinctly
and say separately they should also sit
in
a the argument is
says you should sit in the seven days
that already include all the Jewish
people in other
words anybody that's part of's Covenant
and he lists
the which already includes all 10
segments of the Jewish
people why does he have to specify as a
separate s group
that and finally the third question now
I want to tell you something about this
third question this third question is
classic there's so many my mod that ask
the same question it's a funny kind of a
question it's a really weird question
but the adds something here which
actually offers more insight into the
reason behind the
question you had this in in both years
in a lot of places but
you should sit for seven days so
explain is a it's a it's something which
envelops means to sit but
philosophically mean to means to settle
and means that you have to settle the
something which is available to
indirectly you have to make your own in
a settled way and my argu that that's
impossible how do you
bring how do you make something which is
indirect and infinite personal and
Manifest this is what my M say but it's
based on the new on of
the you have to settle the now that's
not the simple of the simple you should
sit in the it's interpreted that you
have to make the here the asks that
question but shows you why it's a good
question
finally questions also asked
but the detail that brings here I don't
think
is uses to support the it says
twice so says the
following the fact that the same it says
twice and they're clearly unnecessary
they are
redundant is compared to a idea which is
called now this
expression is apparently predominantly
used regarding carbonis
K when it comes to carbonis in order for
to be
unchanging it has to be Beed twice I I
came
across where the asks the question why
specifically by is it necessary to have
it
twice twice he proposes that perhaps it
makes sense that by Kim more than than
anything else one time should be
sufficient because Kum everything has to
be so precise and he explains because
Kim is changing the
world means when the T says the same
idea twice it becomes
affirmed in a way which cannot be
altered it cannot be changed it's
basically the idea the way I understand
it
now um I'm not an expert in Kim I
haven't learned Kim that's the honest
truth
but also indicates that sort of almost
like an extra
P the meaning of the state is when the T
says something twice now usually when T
says something twice we try to say it
means two different things but there are
instances where you cannot find the
secondary meaning so in any case that sh
all say same thing twice and you cannot
find how the two times that it's
mentioned are representing two different
things in other words it's literally
said twice then we say it's it's meant
to point out it has to be precisely this
way I just want to say this now that in
the next M which we're going to learn
after this
one they was going to bring
a that compares Su to to him which makes
this idea
of a very interesting idea as you see in
the next when you have the saying the
same thing twice and you can't learn
from it to different things it becomes a
and that's the my mod ask that since
says twice t t doesn't just mean sit it
has to mean something which is absolute
and that's the idea of settling let's
read the
inside and the idea of settling and
sitting are opposites because first of
all a heart is a temporary
dwelling that's number one and number
two it's
in as much as they're comparing it to a
house it's a Mak so there are two issues
t means to settle and t means to make
permanent the Suka is not the kind of
thing you can settle because it's a Mak
it's not the kind of thing you can make
permanent because it's temporary and yet
the is saying
twice means that you have to take this
temporary dwelling which you relate to
an indirect way and not you have to sit
in it you have to settle it make it
permanent
and make it something that you're able
to internalize and that's the's
question how can you settle the Mak this
is the fundamental question of the okay
those are the three questions and the
answers are coming in the next paragraph
number 21 if you follow me with it and
it begins with the
answer
is brought so much it brought also but
here it brings a a new from the which is
wonderful I shouldn't say new different
or
another the first part of the is a
command you should sit in a and as says
in
the
of if it's a it means we're in a
position to do it on our own if tells us
do it that itself is proof that we're
able to do
it when it says in the second part of
the every Cien of Israel should sit in
the it's a blessing and a promise of
come come
come the blessing and
the the way said it in the previous when
does the give you a when you're not able
to do it on your own now the previous m
able do on your own in this able on your
own and obviously those two things the
two sides of a coin and he
explains we do the work that we're able
to do on our own which
is we sit in the for seven days which is
explained amongst other things to make
from
the they gives us a promise that every
citizen of Israel is going to sit in a
this is not a mitvah this is something
which happens as a byproduct so to speak
but and he adds one more important
detail now we translate like the modern
definition of the word a
citizen says no
means to shine to radiate light means
the light of every is will automatically
sit in the now you see at the end of the
is going to bring that it's really
something which is supposed to happen
after M comes that then there'll be the
Gil of now we're saying that under
there's a Gil of e even
now he proceeds to explain and he
explains it
says and as I told you many times
there's so many that explor this
including in the beginning we exper and
the
last right before
the also
explains 50 years later in the
[Music]
year in general these five levels are
two that means levels of the that are
revealed directly into the person in an
internalized and a personalized way
which is like the word tast
which
is is the liver the heart and the Brain
which is the the garments thought speech
anded and the heart and beina which
means understanding the indirect levels
of the meaning the levels that do not
have a seat in the body so they're not
able to be fully revealed in the body
which is the level of which is sometime
connected to
the which is even higher than or
alternatively it's it's of the and this
is
the first the lower parts of the the
ones that we have direct control over
because we have a k an A in the Goof to
represent neish we have an k a in the
Goof to
represent the represent since we could
control these things Hashem commands us
that we should sit in the which
is it's a commandment for serving on the
three levels
of add a detail which I don't fully
understand and it's mentioned in this
more than
once seven even is 10 he says is s and
he links it to the
fact sit in the for seven days it
doesn't only mean seven days it means
for seven ideas just like it says
in have it in the in
the that he created the world
but so here he
says the idea that a person has been
given a commandment an instruction to do
which means Hashem tells you to do it
because he knows you can do it on your
own and what does he tell you to do that
you can do on your
own that the level of sh you can settle
in
the and Sh goes on all three
level the seven days are the cycle of
life seven days are the idea that every
single day a person has a different
avoid and each one of those seven days
each one of those seven avidas are you
just given the instruction to sit in the
Suka since he can do it on his own he
must do it again the irony is that n is
including
all certainly from
B and then connect it to the number
seven and then the end of the m is going
to go back to it again and talk about it
in terms of the whole cycle of time so
I'm not sure exactly what the broader
the deeper intent is but we move
on then it happens automatically a
revelation any transl doesn't mean a
category of Jew it means a level within
each Jew which is this of every single
Jew the shine of every single Jew is
promised that you're going to sit in the
automatically if you did the a that
you're able to on your own the abish
guarantees that the higher levels of the
are going to come into the
indirect levels of meaning the levels of
that we don't have direct control over
because we don't have a tool and a limb
in the body to represent him because
they're infinite and hidden and indirect
we cannot make them come into the Goof
like I can tell my mind to think a
certain thought and to a limited degree
I can tell my heart to feel a certain
feeling and I can certainly tell my arms
and my legs and my mouth to do certain
actions but my soul that above my mind I
cannot control and the ab therefore says
I'm going to guarantee I'm giving you a
promise you do the part that you could
do and I will give you the part that you
cannot your
text the indirect levels of
the are going to drawn down and radiate
the pneum and now you have a very
interesting expression this is very
sweet now I wish there was a way for me
to highlight this to such an extent that
even a stranger visiting my site and
finding this class would find this you
have this so
much but takes a few
words and in them you see
how I'm beginning with the fact at the
printed in America was
the now it seems like he's saying and
it's true but when he ever he says he's
in words he shows you individual words
and from these words he builds
ideas and here he's
G
here says in
his which now is 80 years ago when the
said it it was 30 years ago but it's 50
years the bonding of the
with means
joining the lower levels of the which
we're able to control and if we can be
commanded is going to be joined by the
levels of the do we not have direct
control
over no it's
more me doesn't
mean he says at the end of the
paragraph is the whole and nevertheless
there a difference between the word
which
means and the joining
of I wish to explain this is a hard
talking
now he goes back to the where he also
spoke about the five
level and he spoke about
them in the context
of and he connected it to tr
that comes
the that you're revealing and you're
revealing and said that revealing what's
called like
it there's a tiny spark that's a created
spark that's called that's coton which
is
called so is the fifth level of
the
is the point
in that the touches and he's going to
explain
[Music]
his we explained
before that even though in so many
places that's how it
is on the other
hand based on
that when you say
that you really have to say that there's
something even higher
than so the says the same idea
here even the level of which is so
frequently consider is only a name of
the and the the very essence of the soul
and I hate the word essence the soul as
it is entirely by itself without any
definition regarding which you say that
there's five names is higher than and
this is called it's the spark of cre
which
is the level of which in other mym is
considered and here is considered the
highest of the five names of
the explains in his and
thens this is the meaning of that phrase
first of
all doesn't mean
me which is joined with me which is
higher than the idea of being
[Music]
a later on in the same uses a different
expression when they uses the
expression the Revelation called this
doesn't mean that
means
intent when we do the job we're able to
do which we can be commanded to do which
is first of all but not
only also the Which is higher than the
and the Which is higher
than the spark of Creator which is and
then he finishes
with
and and there's a difference between
how and
how each is the whole thing and also do
a concept
of so the here is hard but the math here
is easy right the math is you can be
told to do what you're able to do which
is you can be promised what you can't do
which is
called does not only include also incles
and the is not in the it's not
but what does this mean what does it
mean that is only a name does that mean
everything it do is
false doesn't seem reasonable it's
reasonable to assume that all the things
you learn in the about is
true means the level of the that's one
with in the kind of way that it's
responses to the aish that don't have
any whatsoever other than the fact that
it's so also what's a difference between
how and
how so you have a clue the first clue is
but it's
called but it's not called it's called
even though brings to talk about this
sixth idea
called
but the is distinguishing between the
word and and the word even though by the
way in many places theb would misquote
this but here he quotes it as a more
classic
expression so you want to know the
difference they're both they're both
connected
absolutely is how
with in the next paragraph there's
another clue and I want to say this now
in the next paragraph there's another
clue if you'll jump ahead and you look
in the next parag page 19 second
paragraph six lines down he
says he wants to separate the word
from and this separation between the
word and is
separation
between right means
one means the first means the only one
so means the first means there's always
going to be a second y means the only
one there'll never be another is in the
middle means one one means there is an
idea of more than one but one also means
there isn't a reality of more than one
there's only an
idea so means there's nothing other
means a first
means there could be another but there
isn't sort of in between and and the
brings this distinction between and and
explains it in the following way I'm
reading the words
inside when you say only
one you can't even say that there's
extremes you can't say that there's
higher and lower and that Y is
everywhere there isn't that
everywhere when you say there's a heaven
and an earth and the is everywhere when
you say there is no there's absolutely
no distinctions
whatsoever you cannot speak
about it's a high
level on the level of Y there is no
concept of high and low and therefore
just like you cannot call it low you
can't call it high it's beyond the
phenomena of being defined as being
special it's beyond the idea of being
special it's
absolute and this second clue offers
more insight into the difference between
and clue number one is that is called is
called and clue number two is that is a
high
level is not even a high level so what's
the difference what's the
difference
is is the where a piece of the and being
a piece of the gives a power of never
there absolutely no limits whatsoever No
Limits whatsoever at
[Music]
all but being a piece of the that makes
him Beyond any limits whatsoever is a
very powerful
M which is not being a piece of being
himself you can't call it powerful you
can't call it weak it's just the
truth so what do you know what do you
know based on what I just said about
what separates the M of
now I have two thoughts on
this the first
is the
says is a very simple prayer and it's so
simple that t doesn't touch it like it
says
in and of course they bring
the
original so the said but there something
higher than which
is you open your eyes you're simply
aware that you are you haven't yet said
at that point you can't even say you
have a simple relationship with God
there only God is if you are God and
that's where the
says you have to add that when you're
talking about shouldn't call you should
call you shouldn't
say that's my first commentary on these
two Clues and my second
is talks and gives two
levels is infinite which is ready
for
but it's outside of the person meaning
to say like Russ great and he comes to
America because when there's no there's
no
subsides but then
the which
is this level of the Nish is so powerful
that you could see the Infinity of the
Nish in your brain in your heart in your
senses there's no contradictions between
infinity and infinity or to say it in
the language or this there's no
contradictions between
and or
and so those are four insights to
separate from
number one is called is
called number two is a high level cannot
be called a level number three is like
and is
like and number four in this one we can
debate but that's how I'm interpreting
it is the power of
Infinity
but it doesn't
have
and
Y is the which is so beyond high or low
that it can show itself even in a simple
idea in a simple feeling in a simple
action because it's not limited by it's
being unlimited it's
not if you join all these four Clues
together you have a sense of what it
means that included in
is not
only also when he comes into
a the gives him even that level in
himself that place in a which is so one
with that you can't call it high you
can't call it low you can't call it a
piece you can't call it sacrifice it's
just the truth it doesn't have an
expression not even an expression of
saying so that I
explained I don't know but I certainly
gave you some food for thought okay
underlining issue is that we had our
question started with three my
questions and we answered at least two
of them right the third question about
being we haven't answered but the first
two questions of why you have to specify
after you say all and why it has to say
twice we explained based on but we
develop further based on what says in
his mind
next paragraph 19
second the idea that the higher levels
of the which we don't own that are
given we do the mitvah that we're able
to do of sitting in the and
automatically
as is call in your name do everything
that they're doing on the level on the
level of level they're able to do the
dovah eating drinking and spending time
in
this to the gift of the levels of the
which we have no control
over so we do the and the is a of much
much much higher but now that has a cash
and this cash opens up the the point of
this that
physical like he explained in the
previous year
about so we're on page 19 second
paragraph with the number 25 is which is
the third line into the
paragraph the question is we just
said and this is talking
and that we discussed earlier so the
question
becomes gashi our contribution our
half
is physically eating food and drinking
and sleeping for those who sleep in
the in other words we perform the
Mitzvah not only in a physical way but
with physical
things which like it says in tiny number
of places we have in common with
everybody we're not unique to Jews
Everybody Eats everybody sleeps
everybody drinks how is it
possible by eating physical food and
drinking physical
drink to bring down the
idea what's the reason for
the is an incredibly high level when you
understand what means the way the
explains it the beginning of that
explanation is the word yes that it's a
promise from the said and I said to you
before the reason has to promise this to
us because we cannot get it on our own
so has to promise US the M which we're
not capable of getting on our
own to be sure now that I have add the
second point which I gave you earlier
when I discussed with you how we
understand the difference between is to
be
sure you can't even call a high level
you can call a high
level you can't even call a high
level the includes
also the difference you see he do he
doesn't
say and he just presumes that we'll
understand
that and is obviously is the same Hebrew
word and he
explains a of singular is in it can't
speak about poles sides directions no
time there's no space there's no there's
no higher there's no low there's east
west north south there's no Dimensions
there's no
reality we speak about something which
is beyond any kind of form any kind of
reality you cannot speak of it as in as
being a high
level there is no concept at all of n
high and low if we're only talking about
you could say is a lower level is a
higher level but you're talking about
it's such a high level you can't even
call it high and all of this is being
given
to as calls it for eating and
drinking the question if it
becomes how by sitting in the for seven
days and doing theah and of course the
Mitzvah level is the lower level the one
that were able to do on their own and
therefore we're commanded to do on their
own and is not going to do it for us
which is the lower he tied it into the
number seven which compares to the seven
days of the week how by sitting in a for
seven days with the lowest levels of
doing physical eating and physical
drinking are we such gifts from the
which are
Transcendent was this
possible
days and then add listen you can eat the
you can drink in the you can in the
which we're going to call which is so
controversial in from what I understand
you can sleep in a but you also learn in
a
go says not so
simple say is known in footnote
14 of all the things that a person has
to do in the you have to do everything
in the why because you're supposed to
live in the way you live in your own
home and just like in your own home you
learn you d you eat to
sleep in the E to sleep however there's
exceptions to the r where you're being
disturbed by being in the Suka and when
it comes to that it actually turns out
that the things that areally most
required to beun in the Suka are the
eating and the drinking not the learning
and the
ding the primary commandment of sitting
in the all
together eating and drinking
emphasis when it comes
to person
lacks means Clarity Lucidity in
the he's not only exempt from sitting
he's told don't sit in the sit in your
own home because your ability to
concentrate and your learning is more
important than sitting in the
Suka does not involve sitting in the
Suka and having your quality of your
learning interfered with because he
can't
concentrate and again all this
isere
with and what remains
is the mitah sitting in the basically at
all costs unless it's raining
on you have to do it even if you would
prefer to be someplace
else in the drinking more than the
learning in the ding
if the eating and the drinking are
worthy of the label eating and drinking
not just having a taste a SLI having a
real
meal eating a substantial amount which
is must eat in the and drink in the it's
not only that sitting in the as a
physical Mitzvah it's sitting in the is
a mitvah that involves those things that
are things that we have not in common
with all human beings that not
distinctly holy or religious or
spiritual they're just physical things
and the question therefore is
repeated and the question
becomes since we do the proactive part
of the MIT we do the Commandment of the
M we do the part of sitting in the Suka
which we're able to do and if hasem
tells us to do it that he's not going to
do it for us which is
called that it should bring about a
higher love of sitting in the
which because we cannot get it on a Rome
which is the idea
of which
is and how is the mitz sitting in
the eating and drinking physical food
food and drink which is parochial and
material and worldly and
physical so the question is a really
good
one the abish says you do something
basic and I'm going to compound it by
something which is far Transcendent but
even the basic has no Holiness in it so
how is it that physical eating and
drinking is this effective to be
also asks a different question and the
different question basically is how do
you make the extraordinary the
abnormal let's compound it further now I
I started three lines from the bottom of
the number 19 and in your margin there's
a number 26 there although I intended it
for the second line from the bottom
where it says but it's hard to know
where I should have made this division
what begins now is a new question the
question we had until now
was um how is physically sitting in a
Suka especially if the whole the primary
MIT eating and drinking being very now
comes another question how do you make
something crazy
normal it's compounded by the question
because we all
know brings two opinions but this is the
preeminent opinion has
been the reason we is to remind us of
the fact that we sad the tense of
Glory the T of Glory was spiritual thing
even though protected us us physically
and they did all kinds of Supernatural
things to make our lives
materially Pleasant their
is and yet from this we're making a
physical the reason gave us and
therefore gave us a mitzah of sitting in
the Suka to celebrate
this turn to page 20 took us out
of which is GM says the is so true
which is extraordinary and we were given
what to sit in the and eat and drink in
the most normal
way why is the Commandment relation to
to sit in the cirle our own home which
makes has a certain prence when we're
celebrating either something which is
entirely spiritual or even if we're
celebrating something spiritual we're
celebrating something spiritual which is
extraordinary this second question is
really the third question that we had on
page 18 right the first two questions on
page 18 were already
answered those two questions we
addressed the third question at page 18
was the classic question in that is a is
an oxymoron it's a
paradoxus is
is and and the fact that repeated twice
brings and I mentioned it before but I
want to look up the again to see exactly
what the says
about how do you make something which is
by definition indirect and Transcendent
personal and internalized here he ask
the question differently how do you make
something spiritual and totally
Supernatural into something which is
every day which is more or less the same
question making something completely
Beyond very pis so let's say as we go
forward that we have two questions let's
say as we go forward that we have two
questions question number one how do you
make
how the
deepest through the physical mitvah of
eating physical food and drinking
physical drink and the second question
is the Suka represents and the is
reminiscent of and the Suka is allog
together
super extraordinary and we connect it
to in other words the mystical
interpretation of the
word which is to settle is consistent
with definition of you live in this like
you live in your house the says how can
you make something so special that's
mean that it's aah
def but it's aah that's incredible and a
Mitzvah that such incredible how does
that
become these are the
questions now we're moving to the end of
the M which is page 22 at the
bottom and um we know the answer because
he learned it
right and they reveal it through when a
does a
physical the idea that physicality
is that physics physical things are R
than means when you do a MIT with
physical things even the physical things
are the lowest
in so now we go to last pages of the
which means page 23 and we P read inside
what we just said let me just Begin by
stating you have of
course the
which you always learn by the way during
both in a regular year and a leap year
it's just arranged a little bit
differently in the
two
and what the is discussing is the
definition
of makes the world in such a way that it
doesn't know its
source but the makes a unique
argument when you say yes yes makes
something he doesn't make it from
nothing he makes it in the way that it
looks like he made it from nothing right
it
seems means make something and it's
created in a kind of way that it shows
no clues no reflection of its source it
exists in a way of Separation which is
called a separation of the Creator from
its
Creation in part is divide this into two
ideas the truth of the matter is if you
learn the mym you can divide it into
three
ideas U but for this conversation we'll
say that this two idea there the first
idea is that the world exists in a way
that's it's independent That You Don't
See its source but there's a second idea
in addition to the idea that when you
look at the world you don't see the
world's
Source there is the idea that the very
existence of the world says I have no
Source the two very different things
there's many things like spiritual
things think for example that exist in
the kind of way that you don't fully see
in them their
Source but there's a second component
the second component is not only does
Abisha hide from his creation the Abisha
give the creation the sense that it's
his own God and there are two separate
points philosophically Point number one
is
called that the Creator is hidden from
its creation and point number two is
that the yes reveals the look at the
creation and you see a sense of of self
dependency self reliance which isn't
true but that's the perception as if
it's
God so the first idea is a beautiful
mystical philosophical idea and it has a
Vari of different explanations there's
and there's there's and's there's a
different explanations for how this
notion of the world coming into being
without being able to see its
source are is
but the notion that the creation says
I'm God that you look at the world and
you perceive it as if nothing came
before
it says has to come from
himself because only hasem himself is
yesh everything else
is and this is what the AL is presenting
in part it's not the ho but it's in part
that when you talk about there are at
least these two ideas number one the
separation of the creation from the
Creator because
of and number two the investing in the
creation the sense that basically it's
like God
yes and argues that this second idea
that the creation seems to be so
independent that as if it's its own God
yes comes from the truth of the abish so
the big lie that this world is tot
doesn't need anything outside of itself
is rooted in the great truth which is
the
now if you'll turn to page 24 and you
read the first
line is a direct
word this this sense of I am God that
you perceive as a physical means I need
nothing other than myself is not coming
from it is the the sense of Independence
this world has is actually
the but you don't perceive it as you
perceive it as self but the sense of
Independence only Hashem has and in the
creation you see it because you feel as
independent as the himself because the
power of the is invested and you don't
realize that it isn't you it's him and
the margin I wrote and I I have to
rescan
this where he explains this more
comprehensively if I remember correctly
this notion means that we talk about the
physical world there's different aspects
there's the physicality of the world
there's the independence of the world
and there's the I'm god of the world and
of course the I'm god of the world is
the big
lie but when you say I'm God is a big
lie there's two resolutions to that
number two you expose the lie and show
that it isn't real and number two you
expose a lie and show that the truth of
this lie is the truth of the abish I'm
God and I'm real
this is called in our culture Atmos and
it's found only in the physical world
only in
the gash physical things that they exist
in the kind of way that not only we
don't know their Source but they give
you the impression that they need
nothing outside themselves yes which is
roed than yes so the says this is
why doing physical Mitzvah which is the
lowest thing and in this m it's not just
doing physical Mitzvah we're doing
physical Mitzvah which are really Unholy
eating and
sleeping they go to the truth of the
yeses of Hashem to the independence of
the abish the truth of hashem's
independence of any other creation of
anything because the yeses of the abish
is found only in them and this is the
answer to the
question
why or how can physical Mitzvah which I
do on the level
of give me this of receiving the reward
of
because the physical has in itself the
of and when the red in this world we see
this world himself it makes us a CLE to
reveal have the highest levels of
raled so we begin on page
23 for the work of a to affect the
bringing for of
the work we do must
be
parallel to the atmos that we're
bringing down when we do physical
Mitzvah we Reve Atmos so the physical
MIT we do must be similar to
it in general in our relationship with
the there really is no such thing as
reciprocity we talk about it all the
time there's no such thing as I do and
he Rewards
people uh I do and you reward or you do
an i reward because of our similarity
and because of our mutual dependency
interdependence and limitations but the
there's no
deals nevertheless he created a
relationship with us that conforms to
what appears to be anthropomorphic form
deals what we do triggers him and what
he does triggers us and so on and as far
as that is
concerned the only reason hasm
reciprocate the M we do is because he
chooses to not because he's
compelled moreover even after will it
that we do should should create a
reciprocal response from him even
then is never forced it's always a
choice
because nothing we can do for hm's hand
ever it only works because he wishes it
to work the same
time it's still
necessary should be somehow similar to
the what being brought from above
because that's how we set up his
relationship with us it's not only a
game just an act it's a design of a
relationship and design of relationship
is he so to speak puts himself into a
framework of a relationship with us
where there is interface and there is
reciprocity we act and he reacts he acts
and we Rea and
so idea that he is bring himself which
is done through the physical the
physical cheing of the the physical
sitting in the which affects
the the revelations
of requires specifically and priority
primarily physical behavioral
MIT discussed at length earlier in
this we
bring through
BL
sound in physical things you have the
power and there's a variety of reasons
for why and in this mind reason is
because the of this world is the of as
you'll see in a couple of
moments you know he's
to 43 but that
is I wonder why don't bring it this four
by the way if you go
to the glass terms I have like 10 or 11
classes on B I went through all four of
these and I went through each one of the
four both on the level of and the level
of by the way you have it a little bit
that I mentioned
earlier is even higher than that is is
really the idea that the truth of the
creation is
himself I showed you before
the
so
but makes the argument that this lowest
B has a an advantage of all the higher
bittles and basically the advantage is
submission when have a higher B the B is
based on an experience and on a richness
is the lowest B is the lowest B it has
one
advantage I don't feel great I don't
feel exalted in myself like you
experience a safe and it lifts you up
although the B is more complete but it's
a b of richness a b of of you becoming
transformed into the
godliness I exist I'm and I submit
there's a subsur botles in
that that there's a connection between
the lowest B and the of where you see
that the truth of the yes is the itself
which is only possible when there's no
experience because when you have an
experience the experience is always in
not and therefore it precludes
revealing there's no experience of and
therefore does not preclude the
experience of that's why the
lowest has the highest and that's really
in other words what theb is going to say
on top of the next page that I showed
you
earlier but now the adds a
Nuance
the we learned a before this one the
first in this three that's why I'm
teaching it where he talked primarily
about the he didn't talk so much about
the Suka he talked about the the next m
is going to talk about both but the Suka
is going to take primac are going to be
learned from the
Su but on the previous M we talked about
and this m is talking about in that
previous when spoke about
the he talked about the idea of
being and
when he quickly then went on to say in
addition to being
from and physical but the focus of
being and the way he
explains the light is defined by the k
and a light where the K is only there to
help the light emerge but the light
emerges as it is by itself in
itsm
but still only it's only he says over
here we explained in the previous we
talked about the idea of which is
physical things have the Sparks
ofin secondary so the air shines as it
is the's role is not to be primary but
to Simply represent the and the comes as
it is naturally as opposed to with is
here to define the a cu the primary
thing is the K A has to be suited to the
K and tell you it's the opposite so
now idea physical the be
of we have a second idea and a much much
higher
idea in addition to the fact that
physical things have Sparks of you have
the other
idea physical things have the power of
the himself the yes
because the truth of the LIE of this
world is the is the truth of
the the ofical
things page
24 and therefore it
carries
explains the phys
is in fact the of himself and
we we're revealing in this world how
this world is the of the himself not
you're destroying this world because but
you're showing that the of this world
does the himself and this is why MIT on
a physical level and specifically
physical
MIT and that's the answer to the first
of the two questions that we had
uh
from we'll call let's say p b of the
page 19 top of 20 and continues and he
says we do the Mitzvah that we're able
to do and therefore we're commanded to
do what we need what we can do we must
do and is not going to help us but then
there's going to
be
we sit in the for seven days which is a
manageable mitah in other words we're
doing on the lowest levels of our on we
were able to the Mitzvah and we're doing
it in a physical way within the
parameters of physical
time
is which
is what the is saying is that it's
physical and limited and therefore
possible manageable but I think theb is
also trying to imply that in this limit
it's what you
call
particular was mentioned earlier in the
m and when we came across it earlier in
the M on
page the very bottom of 18 and top of 19
I told you then I didn't understand what
the point
was seven contiguous
days all of time and the comp the
implication is the limitation
time from
the single
week every week at starts all over again
and by the way the real source of this
is in the middle of the short little p
where he
explains that everything goes seven days
and starts again because it reminds us
of creation
and now he brings Words which I don't
understand like we know what's
brought on this
statement a in charge of creation that's
so he's a very very great Mal but he's
great as which is lower of course
than so he's the highest Mal in
relationship limitations of and this Mal
Z is limited by time and limited by
space and the brings this here to
further support the idea that the world
is limited and the mitvah which we do
are limited to time and space and
nevertheless in them there
is itself is also physical it's a
physical act of
sitting especially when you add what we
learned earlier in today's
class
the sitting is mostly it's more about
eating and drinking than learning and
doming and you don't make when you learn
you don't make when you so much you make
it when you eat which focuses
on and as we learned in
this we the previous
paragraph So Physical mitz in general
access especially physical Mitzvah that
about physical things physical eating
and
drinking do this Mitzvah of sitting and
according to our limitations everything
about the Mitzvah is physical and
everything about the Mitzvah is limited
and limited the
physical physical space and means to say
the limitation of physical space which
is what physicality
means physical time and the limitation
of physical time which makes it physical
and the physical act of sitting and
sitting for the sake of eating and
drinking by doing a physical on a
physical level about physical eating and
drinking to bring down the levels of the
which we have no access to and therefore
there's no command there's
Noah happen by
itself iser so what makes us k for the
revelations of the higher levels of the
is the physical mitah why so in the
previous spoke
about and in this
about and that's what means that we're
we radiate we shine the light of into
this world from above the world and then
that's really the that's really
the means the which Shin is revealed in
the world
not but isn't it TR
it will shine in the future which means
it's not now so you could
translate being and We're translating
because being concurrent as soon as we
sit in the through our efforts
automatically and immediately
thereafter you can very easily
say is only going to
be it's true that me and certainly there
going to
be but it's now
also it's a statement and he explains it
based on
the know he
translates says when you said the world
to come you don't mean it's going to
happen later now it doesn't exist you
mean it exists now already but it
happens after this
world it's called the world to come
becomes after the MIT that we do in this
world but it happens immediately it
already exists and it happens
immediately and the same is also true
when it
says and you can translate that in the
future the levels of be
revealed which happens through our doing
our which is sitting in the mitah
sitting in
the which is the lower levels of the
doing a lied Act of time and space and
eating and sitting says
the sitting in
parthis which
means also which
already immediately after we sit in the
happens that the me we use the word
means it will shine in the future as it
means the second we do our half which is
the lower half of the the higher half of
the is automatically
manifest the moment we fulfill our half
which is the MIT of sitting in
days brings the revelation of the idea
that the higher levels manifest which
so even though means but doesn't have to
be in the far future it could be in the
immediate future as soon as we sit in
the and of course the is what we're able
to do expects us to do and he wants us
to do it on our own what's beyond their
capacity he gives us and he gives it to
us right away and the sh of the how gmas
is able to earn that Gil is answered by
the statement only
can earn
that and then of
course the idea that every of every is
going to sit in the circle in the future
which We're translating to
mean now but it also means L because
it's going to be and every single every
single going to be revealed and they're
going to sit in
the the Su which is made from the which
is here it
say we just finished
the and it's the second of what I'm
calling that's I'm teaching it the first
M was primarily about
lul this MIM is primarily about
Su and the next M goes full circle he
starts off with Suka and it goes back to
that's how I see
it the
second it's all revolving around
the and the focus of the that you defeat
the war a
through is how I'm interpreting it
and so the first was about the second
about the next M which is shorter is
going to be it's it's five page M this a
seven page m is going to be about Su and
about but first and then lul and it's
going to go full circle it's very
interesting is going to in the next
mind that
from that the idea that
there's is more than any other physical
Mitzvah even then
citiz and then he's going to argue not
using but using that if it's true of
the Su it's even more true of the lul so
to me the way works is if you want to
help who are busy fighting
with do MIT with them especially shaking
a and bringing them into a bringing them
into a and shaking with them aul he
starts off at lul then he celebrates the
Su in this m and the beginning of the
next M he goes back to lul after
[Music]
