A Tale of Two Souls - Likkutei Torah Ki Seitzei "Ki Siyenah" #2 - By Rabbi YY Jacobson

the yeshiva dotnet okay page 75 right he said say the reason says and it's explained that length and tiny in the second section area for the vimana everything in the world has a soul everything the result says that even offer even earth yeah glob of Earth on Evan Iraq certainly a a flower plant everything he says has a nefesh roughness has a spiritual soul which and explains because is that VAR Hashem is the energy of our Shem that gives it to use and creates it every single moment and that is its nefesh certainly an animal and certainly a human being and this is jus not jus this is every creature diamonds and make I'm a damn it in fact the resource said this hundreds of years ago today we know the marshal that even what we called diamond what we call diamond means silent lifeless you look at a rock it's lifeless we know that it looks lifeless but internally if you see it spin amia s-- right with a microscope we know that in every single existent being even a drop of water even ah a drop of rain I mean push that the atoms even the atoms you have not millions but billions trillions zillions and even more of atoms that are all in a constant movement Swift movement with a perfect harmony and organization and structure and not one atom moving the billion and each one then they're all working together in perfect symmetry so even from a pure scientific secular point of view sudah lepida Cavell everywhere it's it's lemma dick what we look at just you know uh at that table it's far from dead and it's far from a table it's far from the table so when the result says it has a nefesh and a fuse in erroneous in it so today you even have the tools to be to appreciate it more of course he's not only talking about atoms he's talking about a realistic Esaias the divine energy in it when energy in it so that's cool about everything and of course the nefesh obamas to everything lives from the devar hashem so in many ways in the nefesh a Bahamas dis also a nephesh Eliquis because there's the godly consciousness that gives it its own caius and identity but it gives it highest as a nephesh a Bahamas Hashem gives it a guy just like he gives guys to the tree as a tree and to the flower as a flower and to the animal as an animal to the insect as an insect and each insect that's on Christ the nefesh a Bahamas in a person that itself also has a highest from a shell and that is its own its own core but what does it experience itself as it experiences itself as an animal song that's the difference in every shell the kiss experiences itself as divine energy right the nephron bahamas doesn't experience itself as divine energy it experience itself as an animal there's a magma from the bomb Latanya he has a safer called my mother had more luck in a set on the bottom my partners on Miami they I once saw that he says Lahav in hot Tom that everything in the world is happy all bollocks I am are happy also mayekar happy and all by them are happy besides people who are miserable well hovering at timewise everybody happy besides people Nautilus an animal feels pain there's no question and I more sometimes cry in their own way one song you could see documentaries when mother hand every one hand when birds lose a chick you know it's shaking the nest dies or penguins penguins are elephants one could see a certain element of grievance a certain elements of pain I didn't mean but there's there's no pain and you know of course there is but judging based on our study of animals and our observation of animals we know that usually animal are not concerned with questions like meaning and like purpose and like truth in other words their consciousness is basically focused on existence and that's their beauty and that's their SH licious that's what they were created for you know they're doing their job they don't sin animals never sinned that's the beauty of animals on their own they're not corrupted unless like reaction says by the marble you know they hang out around people and then I feel the ballet I initially so famous now actually an ayah para Shira it's beautiful there's a deep spirituality that vibrates to them and not it's just how they were created you know with raava my sacrum they're really products of the divine and they don't corrupt it they don't have our ability to corrupt themselves because they don't have the same spiritual abilities to rise in that way so every person has a mission as a new bottom Shivan Sarna that we work with the two souls it's almost a dance between the two souls and an act of a relationship and the judiciary that one's life span one's life course one's years of life according to this discourse of the ballot Anja are allotted to them based on how much work they need to do with their animals soul so this gives out this brings out even a deeper depth in the preciousness of our work with our animals so it's like don't run away from your animal because this is exactly where your mission lay this is exactly where you're purposely or to put it simply in simple words maybe a little more blunt that which you fear most is probably that which you need most that which may be most difficult for you is probably that what you need most in other words the fact that your animal soul is really resisting this this may be your very mission so you say oh I thought I was over with all over this he says no everyday there's gonna be animal , so the more sensitive you are to and life it's not that life becomes easier the challenge will expand to different realms different categories on the contrary because you're completed one now you could move on to the next you know like a Spartan Race you know Spartan races they have these athletic races where they really test your your athletic skills so you know you finish one major challenge you know you have to swim through a lake of month you have to swim through a lake of a month right so you're done so what happens now now you go to a harder challenge yeah so the Kevon is not the battle and aggravation the Kevon is the relationship to be able to confront the animal Solan happens on two levels sometimes we wage battle and we simply have to fight it so just be punching in the face and say no and then there was a deeper process and that is beard it's happened a refining sublimation elevation education enlightenment just like an education there's Sumi rawness a toad is the discipline element where you just say no no ifs no buts no whys no wins and then but that's not the ultimate ultimate of Education is not just that you always tell your children not yes you need that but the ultimate of Education is say hey shall haveth Allah may allow to inspire the child you want that your children should be able to inculcate the values and they should become their values not your values so in this sense also there's the element where I stand guard with my nefesh obamas but then there's an element of refinement I want to work with it that the nation is saying about him shiva shaman Bozell padishah costs of the Apple is wrong you see the line starts in March at the superlative you have it the cell Peter's a cost of happiness wrong this is the deeper meaning in the pasta the Otto emotion of a mythology people the otter is roll marsh Emily catfish I'll mimic or in a few places but RT so now you see role so what's the Virata she says the Virata is arter dark abyss man has a sharp would have metal necklace a national Buscemi's wrong she's literally started on the not safe as never shabam muscle optima relative have a lot of Sydenham are basura to my are women are titular year her rock lava let it started a little Samantha Lake Kariba shame you strong but after he saw means now you have to be honest wrong now in this stage there's still a battle and therefore you must rise to the state of his shock ISA Risa email akin be my notion Latasha you should be able to rule over Ellie came over the Middle's of your animals soul and I'm not some over the habits of your animals soul but to kill you should be able to prevail now is a time when you must fight and you must rule and you must win why because there is a his arrows there's a need for buddy read because there are and the Toyama or if everything is mixed together and you need a struggle to refine and extricate the toy from the route but there will be a time in the future when the spirit of impurity will be removed then you won't have to be called you stroll that after now you're a battler really strong hub in perilous you need to stay on the Fosters Little Compton Bilaam Hassan to understand now what is the ultimate purpose of this he said what but why what's the ultimate purpose of two souls coming down to battle in this world a hooray what's the question I heard a cigar nefesh I see unist item sure you are the best of it since summer have my super Michaela Patel abortion the lumberyard the call couch all useless Loretta's Gama never shall the kiss love viral ELISA can almost hear the outcry in this question he said I don't understand in its source the nefesh of the humans before it descended through all of these evolutionary planes of concealment and restrictions it was also bottle by it was also nullified and submerged in the infinite light of God as we're explaining in the animal soul is not inherently evil and the main avoid it is an act of extra extermination what we would call mill chemists mad no ultimately the ultimate goal is a mill comma see no hit it's an educational process that's what it is which is one of the biggies so this here that he's trying to establish and that's what we're dealing with and by the way I should just add that this every every every Nakota here morphs into many more details and it could be discussed with many different angles I often asked us to young people teenagers especially Ashima buckram and so on and so forth how do they see the ultimate function of Yiddish kind as the destruction of the self or the engagement of the self in other what is the message that is communicated to most Baccarat more girls that let's say go through the ultra-orthodox system or whatever system I don't know I want to give names you know the system of so does Victoria mitzvos in in an intense way what is the ultimate message the ultimate message is you trust yourself or you distrust yourself you repress yourself or you express yourself you deny your emotions or you celebrate your emotions you love yourself or you hate yourself to put it very simply what do you think so many people at least are hearing the latter at least that's what they're experiencing whatever is itself is not good whatever I'm really excited about must be bad and ultimately avoiders Hashem is an act of repression and this also has to do with obedience obedience there was somebody I was giving sure in like some in some community so there was somebody who was coming to the Shura and he would come in at the end and leave early and he was like hi so the camera shouldn't get him so I asked him once what's your afraid to to be caught in my presence I mean what's gonna happen you're on the witness protection program what's what's the issue he told me that in his yeshiva they would throw him out if he comes to learn these texts I said today why what's the big deal what are we learning about what was everybody if men a very smart kid she tells me that Shiva doesn't really mind he's a smart guy but he's scared to lose control so what type of control will he lose maybe you'll appreciate you describe more what's the controls gonna lose he says the control he's gonna lose is that I will be thinking on my own he will not create for me the system of what God wants and what he doesn't want huh I don't know if it's a current zone so I'm just telling what somebody once told me so this was very interesting to me I said so what I say asked him why anything your Shiva wants to control your mind what to tell you what to think what not to think he said for good reasons because he thinks that that's the way that's the real path you have to control people's minds so I thought if I thought about it you know in other words they could be ah there could be that there is in certain branches of Judaism perhaps a certain mahalik and that is that couldn't you really trust the human soul can you really trust the human soul or the masses are the masses and they have to be harness they have to be directed not everybody could be exposed to everything there's certain people maybe yes you know maybe certain spiritual elitists or the bailer you sir all but the masses have to be told not only what to do but also how to think and and a person once told me that they of a certain sheet of a particular person I say why because we come in he tells us what to do and what not to do and it's simple it's not confusing right so it's a very interesting Mahalo and it comes down I think to a very deep concept and that is do we embrace the self or not ultimately if you negate the self somebody has to tell you somebody better superior wholly has to tell you what to do and even what to think and what to feel but the Derek about Shelton was very different now somebody was in my house last Shabbos and and she told me that her siblings even though they grew up very different her siblings became Casa de SH so I said I'm sorry you have to explain to me what that means I don't know what that means so she says they put on a stri Mille so I said if could you maybe define in terms of character not in terms of garments cuz I can also I mean anybody could put a nice try mall I mean I could take my cat and put a stri mall on my hat cat's eye I never knew that garments are actually represent something significant is there a character definition so she said yeah that they stopped thinking for themselves that's what she told me so I was thinking us I told my wife after I said you know this is an interesting tragic situation the baal shem tov was a revolutionary and the baal shem tov constantly in his teachings explained the idea that god's light to be found in every person you have to find your own god and yet today the very term cassadee's became associated with very perfectly stin some places or by some people I'm not giving a generic term for everybody has ultimate repression and obedience in the sense of you just go with the masses you go with the herd when this whole mission when a major part of his mission statement was self discovery and really discovering you know the God within you the soul within you so that's a that's a pretty tragic I think phenomena if that's true so I'll call palm and we so this is a very powerful idea that the ultimate avoided with an official Bahamas is never about repression it's never about repression of self never about abnegation of self never about destruction of self yes discipline yes but not destruction but discipline is not destruction discipline is to help the animal soul become who it is sometimes you have to put a muzzle on its mouth I want my child to be healthy sometimes I have to say no you can't eat the candy not because I don't believe I believe that the child has to be an obedient robot because I understand that if I put poison into a person too much although they see they just discover that pasta is very good for you I see they used to say pasta is the worst thing in the world but stepside me I see now on a new article I know the doctor agrees you saw in the New York Times yep it's a hush of an article that pastas mama's boy did it is this young man wish on employers I don't know I always I was told pastas like the malla some of us himself before they about so yes do we know what's poison what's not but the point is discipline is a hack sir it's a means it means for an end so here comes the big question if the nefesh of Bahamas in its Shailesh is really holy and it's buckled by RFM it just descended into a space where it's not aware of itself so why did this have to happen it's like almost a game or a game you take the nefesh obamas which is really one with God you send it on a journey where it becomes a beast and an animal and now the real tragedy you take the nefesh of the kiss and you have to send it into the Lions then and the whole life it's engaged and entangled and enmeshed with this animal soul and not sure who it is who it's not doing battle and so forth lover why did this or why did this all of this happen suddenly happening you're not surgical I have been killing animal combos mano so this we have to give a hug dogma about the concept of this battle and the time of the battle i'ma for Bazaar which this is explained in sorry sorry that color says very interesting lush sighter decarava he cited it slicer the time of Davin is a time of war desire that find what is dominant it's a time of war man the Cottle Olivia your hovering they brought to the mauka that's licensed he says that the king said is a snake and whoever kills the snake give you as a snake I give him my daughter I give him brat I give him my daughter of a mouth as as drafted the mouth give him the daughter of the king that's why sand that's darvany babbling is from one best battle against the snake and for that you get the daughter of the king what does desire mean what do you mean babbling is a time of Muhammad so Mela not sure where everyone is screaming at each other see this that definitely the time of Muhammad what strap down third Avenue is a time he's speaking to God what's up some will come of course what he's gonna explain it it's not almost coming with other people that's that's not happening it's talking about it will come within yourself in other words dominating is so to speak it's the Olympic Games of the spiritual battle it's when the nefesh are the kiss and the nefesh a bahamas really go at each other it's when the divine soul confronts its animal soul and talks with it negotiates with it handles with it and according to the ballot Anya the whole Musa Hut villa was structured by the antique necessary Delilah and by the kazaaam and by the guy in him as you know the different parts of dominic were added at different stages of jewish history until we have our long and elaborate avenue that we have today and really from a spiritual perspective every part of domine was designed simply as part of this battle as part of this let's call it conversation fork or complex conversation that goes on between the godly soul and the animal soul during Avenue so it's almost like the nefesh of the kiss is engaging its opponent or apparent opponent I should say a parent opponent in a very intense process that's what the ZOA means sauce oyster sauce Grover and that's why as he says elsewhere the worst mark Chavez artists will usually come in middle of Domini not only because people are bored by domine that's part of the problem but it's even deeper than that even if you having a successful davon Inc when you're having an arm wrestle with somebody so in the beginning he may not be working very hard but when you're about to get him down what's gonna happen in order to gain some face save some face and maybe even try to win he will muster all of his resources and resist to try to get to try to get you down so it's precisely your success that engenders such opposition so the more successful of dominant other words the more successful the nefesh Eliquis is in sri guerring its own fire the more it will engender the opposition of its appearance opponent who will search for every type of thought to put into your head in order to derail you so it's not because you were unsuccessful it's because you were successful so the mammoth darling is a very serious time of a Malcolm that's why in his world the world of Fela was very intense it was very powerful very intimate extremely intimate time it's a time when a person really it's a very deep internal spiritual time of therapy so to speak of trying to understand who we are what we are and the various contrasting forces that exist in the exist in the human personality OB attention baby Suki the similar are the manner and I'm at time shipping option Bom the first step of domini is look at the zimmerit look at the similar meaning the verses of praise and with the focus is that the person needs to be able to talk to the nefesh a Bahamas and help it separate itself between maker distinguished in its own right and its own type commercial Asif we same took at a Zimmern who remembers kale burger a number therapy fears the other the exaltedness of God is in their throats and a double-edged sword is in their hand so the way we we did the pastor says lastest nakami by going to facials my moment but the ballot angus says then a comma volume is talking about yourself it's all yourself meaning meaning stay P ice why does the sword have to mouth so you say it's a double-edged sword you know just to to jab to to harm the person from to to harm your opponent from - from - two points two blades he says nom Liholiho toy of Allah my Allah Allah - are a LeMat one edge is there to bring up the good and the other edge is there to be mastered around look like inverted is taking out the oil and it's throwing away the Presonus this is tricky the zimmerit look as in as job is to help the nefesh obamas to caress it and say listen you're not evil you're a good guy you're a cute little puppy you're a cute little puppy I love you I cherish you the only thing is I need you to understand yourself that not everything that you crave superficially is really who you are we need a process of boiler we need to select and refine your own type from your own rap what's your type your toy is that in you which is really good and pure and beautiful Mira is that in you which is negative and harming or on even a more subtle level that definition of yourself that is disconnected from God so that's the carrier of tufa fears for who so this begins a process we're how do you do this to the nefesh the Bahamas and what's the Clinton took it as INRA we the splitters cooker the Zimmer come in with elevating the nephesh a Bahamas the credit is no connection between that she's going to explain the process of how the different stages of Dominic is took it as imminent as business Trish matters krishna the serene astronaut the different stages of vomiting are all stages in the inner confrontation between the two souls of man so look at the similar focuses la Marshall on nature much of Socrates Imre most of it focuses really on a study of nature right take the hollow Lucas a nice and shallow cut somewhere care for your father we speak about in one of the hollow Lucas shemesh the array of age vara shallot hitter harlem voice h3 kaya Bahama grammars with super Knopf it's a meditation on natural phenomenon of the universe much of cicadas Imre as a meditation on time on space on creatures on nature on heaven and earth and as we're going to see this is a conversation with the nefesh a bahamas to be able to help and understand that the whole world that we observe even the nature that we observe is really divine energy it's really have a look on Luis a seminar some I'm a little bomb Roman he quite a sham loyal um Malka Malka scholar Lama what this is doing is helping the animal soul almost explaining to it explaining to it that it's not detached explaining to it that it's not alienated and this nobody's gonna go on to explain how the various parts of Davenant are there to be able to help the two souls make a certain level of peace during governing which then has its impact throughout the whole day which after this we can then come to understand better what was the purpose of sending down the neshamah for this for this mission the primary time we explored this this moment this discourse of the altar ember of the rav of the ballot Anya in partially said say explores in some detail the fact that every human being every Jew particularly doesn't operate one operating system but actually possesses two operating systems in other words operates on two levels of consciousness and these are known as the two souls in other words the story of life is a tale of two souls in one city and that is the fact that we operate on two levels of consciousness one is divine transcendental it's a piece of a Shem it's a fragment of God and therefore it sees really the world from a divine perspective and it's ambition in life as goal in life is intimacy with its source oneness with its source and it seeks transcendence it seeks to work to go out of the confinement of a separated autonomous ego and be one with the core of all reality but there's another soul which is called the beastly consciousness or animal consciousness the nefesh obamas which is focuses on self-preservation and self gratification and essentially it's not evil in fact essentially says it comes from a very very lofty and sublime place it just morphs into a state of consciousness where it feels completely self-contained and separated from its source and therefore it has to make decisions for survival not feeling itself as part of our team so it's psychological and spiritual and mental makeup is one that it can experiences itself detached and severed from its divine source and like every animal if it's not trained if it's not disciplined if it's not refined if it's not educated if it's not enlightened from a cute little you know from a cute little animal puppy it can turn into a scary or very aggressive or uninhibited monster and this is what happens to a person's animal soul the animal soul of it's not nurtured if it's not protected if it's not preserved if it's not trained educated enlightened from an animal of could become a instead of being domesticated it could be become undomesticated and it could become extremely powerfully aggressive and sometimes destructive and the journey of life he says this journey was suggested is the partnership between these two souls is the marriage between the souls and the objective of creating Shalem bias harmony between them is a goal in life and he says every person is given the amount of years that they really need in order to work through their animal soul and every day something else comes up in this struggle as he puts it every day there's a Maha Maha dosa and the main time that this negotiation or piece is supposed to happen is during the time of Davenant domine was designated as a time when a person works out his issues or her issues with their two souls the godly soul and the animal saw now the cloud here is that magnificent nefesh serenity and life can only happen when the animal soul ultimately aligns with the divine soul because the divine soul is never going to become an animal just by Nature a divine the prince cannot become a it's just it's contrary to its very its very essence it's very self so the divine soul is never gonna become an animal if you had the choice of turning your divine soul into an animal so then theoretically there would have been a possibility to have serenity and wholesomeness in life if you just live like a beast uncontrolled unrefined undisciplined unchallenged it would work theoretically because you wouldn't have no tension but because there is always a godly soul that will always remain divine so therefore when one ultimately doesn't align their animal soul with the divine there is a void that they will not get rid of and this is a key idea in his teachings that this void is a very very powerful it's a very real authentic void because a human being has to know who he or she is if they want to understand the path to Manuka so nefesh to serenity and wholesomeness so wholesomeness although we never completely get rid of the battle in life but we could still be wholesome within our battle because if you know who you are you're supposed to do and what your mission is and where your struggle is coming from so then you have peace in your okay Webster will include its piece in your piece lessness that's really the objective to be able to find harmony within the fragmentation it's not like one gets rid of the battle because in most people's cases the nephesh a Bahamas has not completely transformed ever there are unique souls Dovid emilich says Willie be Hollow Beaucaire be right into hilum so cuz I'll say only AIT's a heart a harbor Batali's D rashon me says in Broca's vomitus s Laveau vein a monophonic olive avoid about Rama vino you don't use enough shabana's well even if you don't use it you may not use it but it's still gonna be present and the question how its gonna express itself it may express itself in addiction sometimes you'll have a person who's an addict and the only reason they're addicted is because they have an official Lucas I once heard from dr. torski at a conference for addiction he said that in Boca Raton some time ago see he's got up and he said that he's found from 50 years of experience or 60 years of experience a long time that it's usually the most sensitive spiritually people that go into addiction to become addicts because their pain is more acute and the reason their pain is more acute is because they're more sensitive so what other people just dismiss and gloss over and don't notice they take in very deeply and when you're more sensitive and you're more spiritual so your spiritual needs are much higher and your sensitivities are much deeper and when they're not met your sense of pain and emptiness is far more acute you know what acute means Sasha Schaffer asked if I and therefore it may play itself out and much more destructive behavior to dull it the more pain I have the more I have to dull it and every day I have to up my game in order to feel some sense of serenity so the paradox is as he often possessed about time differences color gávea Boyard LaMotta we assume that the higher you are the often lower you for because when the highest part of the wall falls right the higher the rock is the further it's gonna fall the higher part of the tree Falls much further pushed and gosh miss but spiritually it's also that way so sometimes the deeper the nefesh al the kiss the deeper the void when one is not living up to that state of who he is I cannot ultimately deny Who I am I could run from it I can hide from it I can repress it I can try to kill it through drugs alcohol gambling websites whatever all the other things out there in the world are in here in our hearts but I can't ultimately get rid of it I can't I can't destroy it it's not something that's destructible and ultimately my essence but on the other hand since the animal is not essentially essentially ungodly the animal also comes from Hashem it just went through a whole process so therefore peace of mind ultimately is only possible by aligning the the animal with the godly not by aligning the godly with then look at the nothing's never gonna become an animal it's not gonna become a beast but the Netflix of Bahamas will ultimately join the godly so sometimes begrudgingly and sometimes willingly and sometimes enthusiastically that depends where you spend which space you're in sometimes it's progressing Lea right we say in the morning the coif SC journalist a bad loss every morning in in the he rocks and rain right before before in the middle of breakfast at chakra the Haifa Israel what's the Haifa Israel from the Washington coif at 5:00 like in Rambo - I say actually I married Sunday sometimes it's be grudgingly sometimes you have to call the puppy and say and it comes but it comes but you're not gonna go into the garbage can ever why not just doesn't work that way because you're not going through the garbage can but the dog will leave the garbage in the beginning will resist it but ultimately is happy to go with the master when the animal soul follows the divine soul it never regrets it because it's being true ultimately to itself oh so when the godly soul follows the animals soul not only they're not being true to itself it's not even being true to the animals soul its abusing that I'm also the animals soul as he's gonna say soon is gonna is craving sublimation it's that's the whole reason this should have happened it's craving sublimation select said father and I have physalis so when I follow my animal saw I'm not just doing injustice to me that's besides the put I'm also ultimately doing injustice to the animal soul which was one of the great ideas that the ballot Anya always brought out that for compassion for the animals soul you have to have compassion for the animal song not only for the godly saw right yes what what keeps some animals from becoming BC to harass some well that's the microcosm of a comma the end of overcome at the first panic what's been a tireless and what's not been a tired was right you know remember the Mishnah the last mission of a camera is enough to some of the few darlin has Ava hadou Eva Hanako a in him in pain a therapist every few years you hear in the news you know how in the zoo the Tiger was taka trained and the lion was trained and the gorilla was trained but but at some point they're they're untrained that the trainer innate the trainer it's very sad yeah yeah stomps Marva khuskhus Thomas I met this little husky smooth that's even a show but then there's animals that I'll have Scylla not been a timer so that really has with the genes that you know that that they have been created with you know what what they're capable of and of course even in a person himself first off you can't compare one animal soul to another animals so you can't compare a subs nefesh a Bahamas the yak hooves nefesh the Bahamas yacouba's each Tom yo Cheever Holland and a silver say dayit side dish soda and everyone has their own journey that's why says everybody has their lifespan because no to animal souls are the same everyone has a whole different different Mahalo it's like almost designed for you you know are some designs he makes up that does you know all the Boogie Mamina Shania the first evoke is you never inshallah kissing in a fish Obamas but the more you speak to your nefesh a Bahamas the more you you get to know yourself and you can create a real plan for yourself because you really have to know it you have to know you have to know it's ends and it's outs and it also teaches you a few things because it has a lot of potential he's gonna say also something very interesting and that is animals are more powerful than people brute power exists in animals which is what the divine soul gains from a relationship with the animal song so there's really a give-and-take as well but let's not jump ahead of ourselves the main time in in the world of in the world of hostages the world of Mister and generally I should say really the whole world of Yiddish got no difference nickel or mr. fidlow was the main time when a person focuses on his really Hacha but it's also the main time when he focuses on his relationship with our chef in terms of his two souls so Tefila is really designated as a time with the animal soul and the divine shall enter into a dialogue not a man monologue but a dialogue and whatever I say I dialogue is a monologue means you know I talk and you listen or you're full of sleep usually a dialogue is there's actually a conversation so that the animal soul is listening to the divine song that my soul is is trying to talk and communicate and persuade and elevate and help the animal soul so that during the rest of the day it should be able to live a more focused and wholesome life so that is the the key of I mean I guess the summation with some elaboration of some of the issues that we we have been exploring and now he gets to the details of what da Vernon is so look at the Zimbra which is a major part of this is randomness Calvin arnhem the hare if he fears be other than P fee isit says the Gemara says in Baracus I think it's care of shall stay pious which he says the stay pious represents not to stab him in two ways but one edge of the sword is there to elevate the toif and one is two separate around in other words the nefesh obamas needs help doing boiler to be able to separate its own soilless from its own eiffel its own filth its own toxicity from its own goodness and that as you know is a very big avoider to know what to embrace what to reject what belongs to you what doesn't belong to you what you want to run with and what you want to say goodbye to that's the hair of shall stay pious the hook sham is bone another big doula Sasha a major part of Dominique cicada Ximena is a person should meditate his bone Ernest comes from the word bina right like we say the same believed a new beam on Lahav and the word his by notice the hey me avoid Nanao from the word being hazed by - is contemplation or meditation or if you wish it's a state what we call today mindfulness but it's mindfulness that takes time his venomous is to go into a state of mindfulness of awareness for this you need silence what I mean by silence is not necessarily there shouldn't be any other person 60 miles range that sometimes helps too but his binding us also means silence the sense silence from yourself that you should really be able to enter into a space which is very hard for people it's extremely hard for people to think about something for more than a few seconds thank God today we have iPhones so even if you not interested in things somebody will text you so there's always a distraction you know that some people they cannot stay still for a few minutes they right away have something and they look at it and that's always a distraction but distractions are the opposite of his by nemesis biting this means that you actually focus on something and it's a difficult thing it's a difficult thing to focus on something actually tuned into some that's called his bonus bucshon is one of the most frequent words used here Fukushima's Bonin hadam big doulas Hashanah when a person contemplates badula session now the dual assertion in the terminology of the ballot and usually people will translate as the greatness of God I think a better translation would be the truth of God or the infinity of God gudule in the terms of God wash animal oh my god doesn't mean he's big he's powerful he's muscular he's a he's a you know a heavyweight and he's a black belt God no means god--all means actually the greatness means the infinity the all-pervading reality of God some criminals are some means he contemplates the all-pervading reality of God all pervading means that it's it's infinite it's its presence fills everything and he's gonna explain right away you'll see why I'm translating it the imminence I mean imminence right imminence yet imminence very good extra who Matthias Coulomb then he gives life to all which we say absurdism river otter Matthias column and by now you know it's a pasta in the kemiya Omaha VII school up and he gives existence to everything Micaiah school um Omaha VA is : and there's a difference between Micaiah and Mahalo and it's a very significant difference Mahavir comes from the word Hiva like javea Hoya Baraka Marva hahhaha Isla meaning it brings something into existence it becomes it becomes something that's called Mohave from the word his his harvest or high evolution Hiva when we say deborah costs of behavior of our hive acid however means that which is isness mojave means God makes everything is Theos Mejia is not just its isness its particular life in other words it's individual function its individual purpose its individual chemistry and design the godly and this itself has a lot to it we don't say that God created all the worlds we save atomic is Coulomb that's even deeper creation means that there's a common denominator between everything and that is God created everything the Optima highest Cola means that the divine energy constitutes the individual identity of everything in other words a relationship with God means ultimate individuality and that's important because there's a question in philosophy and generally and in hish kapha I think it's still raging today in the Jewish world consciously or unconsciously for relationship to God ultimately means repression of individuality or not you know we've discussed this numerous times in the ultimate calling is it about repression of individuality sometimes there is a feeling that for certain people avoiders Hashem means the negation of self some something of themself gets lost in the process sometimes one feels that in talking to certain people they felt maybe unconsciously they didn't know this they didn't process it that they had to cut off a little part of themselves maybe emotions or talents or expression or personality in order to be an airless Fiat or psychological terms maybe to become a little laying or meat or hunchback I mean hunchback psychologically speaking in order to serve God because if I'm hunchback ultimately it means I'm bottle i'm nitsana Rashi says a knight the Mishna says a nebulous foul element as covetous or actually says haha so what does harnaam mean sub-saharan profits the beginning of the first page fourth parrot what is subservience mean so there is mean literally no subservience we know the physical gesture of subservience right you know how the Japanese demonstrate subservience action ah so we don't do it like the Japanese exactly but hang out with me you know like a little party you become a subservient person in essence that's a question that would be if Hashem is Mahavir the world but if he's my value of the world then it's the other way around because if he's muhabba the world then it means that a connection to God means you can to the source of creation but if our sum is much higher the world and you connect to God by actually going into yourself in a deeper way by finding you unique individuality because that is also divine and that's really the two premise of ciphers and mamala mojave and Messiah I'm just putting it in Kannada to understand he's not repeating himself when he says here but my highest coulomb Omaha VA is cooler it's not sama redundancy it's a very significant very significant dual reality that Hashem is the common denominator of everything which transcends individual differences shovel master cotton Vinod oh but then there's also Fatima hi escola Messiah means it's my fears and my fears is not your fears and the fuse of the worm is not the fears of the caterpillar and the fears of the caterpillar is not the trees of the frog or of the turtle or of the drop of rain or flake of snow or blade of grass or little little pebble everything has its individual budgets scientifically it's chemistry what it's made up of its unique molecular structure as we would call it or atomic structure everything whether it's the mineral world or the botanic world or the animal kingdom or of course the human race diamond cements I'm a diamond or the heavenly plug that Palin it's the galaxies everything has its chemistry its physical chemistry but the physical chemistry is a result of the spiritual chemistry and the spiritual chemistry is basically the unique devar hashem Basara morris never harlem not one - second admission of our labor my method yalla Boris he could have created the world with one minor so the ballot annex meant what's the question what's the question but my miracle idiotically Burris would mean that the world should experience itself as one entity if we win a Miami record there would be no diversity what do we mean - it wouldn't be diversity but diversity wouldn't be significant you know why cause it wouldn't be divine there would be superficial in fact throughout history one of the most fascinating and really ultimately sad attempts have been to create a socialist sense of unity and mankind no differences between people even in terms of ownership take socialism communism now these are very idealistic attempts you had in a here here in America you know part of the of you know the hippie movement still today you have that element of obliterating you know imagine there's no Boundaries no borders no limitations nothing no heaven no nations no cultures there's something very idealistic about it it speaks to young people the reason it speaks to young people is so it's easy to dismiss and say it's it's fixed the only because there's a truth to it the truth is it's the truth of career ahead of pique ahaaa career Decker says everything comes from one source for Optima harvest cooler so by obliterating diversity we actually can reach the source of everything Madhu what is Nassau Kalasha the the problem is and this was the dirt off loggers mistake was the first mistake that you cannot impose superficial unity on a diversity that is inherent to the fabric of creation diversity is also divined diversity is not clipper diversity is divine that versity doesn't only come because God has concealed diversity officer comes because God is revealed because mamala column and the optimist is cooler you give the individual content to every nivea so if i am not true to my content i'm not true to my divinity so my relationship with Hashem with demands an individual relationship with myself but because I also know that I'm a harvest Pullum I don't become an extreme narcissist kappa capitalist nice assist the capitalist which is the other extreme socialism was a response to capitalism which is all about greed me me me me me only individuality me that's dine you take care of me I take care of me you take care of you Shelley Shelley Sherlock Sherlock absolutely no cross over the done cross pollination is also essential to creation ultimately there's one world as a cohesive world as one axis that's the combination that's why the Optima Havas Coulomb at the messiahís cooler are two key features in the Mamluk love you disguise we're completely won and we're also very diverse and they're both very true and we can ultimately discover our one is through our diversity and our oneness also leads us to diversity it works both ways diversity has arrows to oneness and oneness has arrows to diversity when you understand the origin of oneness and diversity and that's why about Witcher ever once shared a story that his father-in-law the Rebbe rocks was the sixth car driver was on a train in the 1920s and in those days the isms were very powerful in the world young men and women would sit in cafes and salons and in Berlin and in Paris and in Russia and instead of discussing iPhone 6 iPhone 7 they would discuss or they would discuss what's the future of civilization everyone had an ism it was a lot of idealism so a lot of isms that especially Jewish youth were attracted to the biggest was socialism and communism of course secular Zionism and many other isms yet the Buddhists in the adidas Tony and C Aniston and of course capitalism and many other isms Judaism was not very popular at the time it was actually in a very serious decline in the 1920s and 1930s very serious decline more than even people imagine today so he was on a train and and there was a big debate there was a big big debate among Jews a classic debate there's two major shifts at the time Lenin and Trotsky and Stalin and all those guys they wanted socialism to rule the world that was the time there was a few years after the Bolshevik communist revolution in 1917 which basically plunged the whole Soviet Union into living hell for as close to 70 years under Stalin's dictatorship because everybody is equal in socialism but some people are more equal than others Teodoro so they were discussing which and politics is the most consistent with China so one set that Toyota is obviously all about socialism because constantly in today about two fishermen at sea board or something laps me money stocker paillette get to my society my sir on the allele a girl pionen Levin manana it's see where everything this community and in in Judaism you know this simmer we had yesterday a tiny simmer the still a bit simpler everything is you know the Omni the Gary the awesome the harmonic because Harlem Colossus caller Tom Kuya and these are obligatory doesn't want to get stuck in my mask you know so you come into this house and you take a lot of role is there's no there's no such a thing you live for yourself and others were saying it's not true take a look Christian misfit Kenya and King and King and say my name is got the bark I went through mine this is this this this property their domain this ownership the whole Christian Richmond is based on ownership individual ownership but become above Mencia this do traditional assessments it's all about bounds reason so they're arguing this one is saying no Toyota's social distance honest ain't anus capitalist and so forth they went over to the Obama children their ever right yes and they asked him what his opinion was so he said as follows he said a beautiful Lance he said ain't toys below you're a vain rabble oi tithe says it's a free Kabbalah there's no good without evil in this world is no evil without good every that is a human invention has in it toy Vanara it has gems of brilliance beauty idealism and morality but every person also has frailties and some other stuff in their psyche that are not always perfect and they're also mixed into the so you any most dissing life most political philosophies of how countries should run are usually a mixture they have taught even them and there are some elements that are beautiful and tremendous and something or not they said as follows its tackled by I sub around the desire says that though retired is the blueprint of the world then the Kudus had toys that exists in every ultimately comes from Tyler the Nicholas had told that exists in every comes from Tyler she says in socialism you'll find very powerful in the colors of Taif and those in the Kudus of Taif come from toyota in capitalism you'll find the codis of time you'll also find the buddhist of rock and those are the quickness of types come from is this italia is the conglomerate of the positive and each one of these churches that's why i tell it's a very delicate balance are we one or are we not one it's not 10% they have to give it stockin 90% I don't have to give it's Tucker why not this guy's a multi-millionaire right give 80 person doesn't work that way he has to it's a good thing he should have he should give more it's adopted no question because Toyota is a very delicate balance between the interplay of the individual versus the community and hillo says it right he may not need lean melee if I am NOT for myself who will be here for me but my shiny laughs me mommy but if I'm only for myself then what am I so if I'm not here for myself who will be here for me so after being for myself the question is what is myself if my self is only myself that Mommy then what is it so that's the two expressions this Optima Havas cooler and Optima highest cool so your path to shell works through two ways one is transcendence of self and one is actualization of self realization of self mixed arias zelicah and that is critical for the work that the godly sold us with the animal soul because with the animal soul itself there's going to be these two elements one is allowing it to transcend itself and one is allowing it to go deeper into itself and in life sometimes the advice to a person is forget about yourself and sometimes the advice is you have to go a little deeper into yourself what's the proper advice there's no book no forget about yourself or go deeper into yourself so you have to be able to look beyond yourself which is not repression it's just the ability to be able to look beyond yourself now that was your oppressive because you put it in context you put it in context that's what you do and sometimes you actually have to go much deeper into yourself so the who let's see this line again is boiling in are the medulla session when a person meditates on the eminence of Hashem Matthias column how he gives life to all Omaha VII school Amanda gives existence to all so every single reality exists is existing from him and gets energy from him vitality from him like we say in Davin in Virata Micaiah s Coulomb you give he is your Messiah everything the Coulomb but a LeMat slow his Baraka and one realizes that everything is bottle at leas bar as everything is so to speak part of him or in him it's it's nullified by him and in him it's all an expression of his of his energy Vakula come a Coleco chef and all in his presence doesn't have a separate and independent significance an independent reality outside of him cooler all khmer in his presence keloid scar sheriff it does not have a separate significance or identity outside of him commercial cosa like we same suka dissimilar from the from the pot second every

particular item and yet he transcends both male and save Earth that's Kadosh command Mira's Allah's the Gomora says at the end of my sector Magilla Magilla the flama Dolloff mom reach the end of the Messiah but Malcolm chapter might say toodle-oo SOI sha Mata might say in verse no sign in the space where you find this greatness that's where you you find you find his humility so what is it what is the Gemara saying the Gemara says that call mahkum shuttle might signal also somewhat on my shamelessness generally antonov wherever you'll find the posit that extols ashrams greatness right there in the same posture core afterwards the pasta will also explain his humility so for example we'll say Nia Shia moravica - ash coin as - Farah his MA Ramiz exalted Kaddish is holy and he dwells with the one who's broken and humble and the camera goes to various sukham that the Tanakh always contrasts it in a place where you find his go doula in the very same context you always find also his another his humility that's literally shot of the Damara here in Lakota Toyota the ballot Anya gives a twist not just a fascinating spin to what this Gemara means when welcome shot I might say the law says I'm not too much and was no Sun it's not in the same space where you find his greatness you also find you militant it would be like saying about a person he's such a great man and yet he's so accessible he's so humbly so normally so human which is a compliment because sometimes you know people who are big or at least they think they're big so they act that way so will you say but Malcolm Shanta might say doulos a somewhat a mise en vez no say he's so big God wash animal omar the nonetheless he is humble what the balloting is going to explain now a hole deeper vartanus - huzzah the mahkum chateau might see the lhasa shamaton rights and was no se means it's really the same thing in the space where you find this godless that's where you find is another meaning what we call GU doula from another perspective is actually the opposite it's actually humbling yourself what for one from one person's vantage point is an expression of tremendous greatness from another vantage point is actually nothing but humbling as he's going to explain this means a 4-piece of the demacian fakers even though we say in ASHRAE God Allah Shah Mohammad and his Padula has ain't shakin what does look the law saying shaking me so this despotic is an interesting passage in Asha and I call the God wash mm although milliard we say three times a day maybe four times a day so something to the family depends how many times you say Ashley well these three times a day right twice and chakras and once by minister tomorrow says I'm Attila beloved give up on Macaulay I must allege subhanAllah mom so when you say Ashley saying God will Hashem amo who annoyed Hashem is great and he's praised exceedingly and then you say but look at the law say ain't fakin it was this a little contradiction uncle God Allah Shama Mahalo Mei he's very praised and by the way like the Lord said to his greatness ain't taker there's no research there's no inquiry there's no investigation so the ballot Anya asks Elstree says you're contradicting yourself first you you make a qualification you say God Allah Shamu oh by the way there's nothing to talk about so when you start saying Mahalo might some people shot you'll say well that's what you're saying you're saying God will our shaman will hold on more and what do I mean I mean you live the Lhasa and Hagen but the Emmis is that it's actually talking about two components there's God Lawson take one is referring to a model column and I want is referring to save of Columbus God lush mm Olamide means God is very great then he's very praised that relates to the God that I know how do I know him I know him from knowing me by knowing you you also know Hashem like the passage says in to heal them and knee yaad aati we say Chavez morning Annie yaad aati he God Allah Shah Mardan a nameko I know that a sham is great and our master greater than all the gods so most people think the focus of the pasta kazamia dieting in Guadalajara which is true but the plastic is also saying omnia that another option I know and the way I know nobody knows it because everyone knows something about Hashem that nobody else in the world knows why because nobody knows you like you know you by a Vassar Yaakov Levada there's a place in everybody in every person where you're alone we say in partials were useless it was the middle of the night for vas a Yaakov Levada by of a Kish in my adolescent there's a place in the world of place in existence where everybody is alone that's how the degelman airfryer and the grandson of the Baal Shem Tov explains the pasta in viola there's a place where you're alone you may be surrounded by a spouse Yaakov and Yakov's case for spouses she certainly wasn't lonely and he had many children and he had a great and tirage but loneliness is an inherent and inherent quality loneliness not in a negative sense necessarily as in the lonely man of faith but also loneliness in the sense of there's the pasta the mattresses on that faucet harder who deceive in Misgav smile Avada by Yo Ma who was the connection to my a vas a Yaakov Levada to disco smile of a day by Emma who that's the song he put the two together right who's that slam Allah he put it together so that's interesting he put together the pasta with the Madras ok so what's the shyest look Ida here it's yak hooves vulnerability he's alone so that's why he gets attacked by a gangster middle of the night because nobody's dead a protective and here he's saying witness kovash Amla vada by Emma who he's alone because like a night Movado so the dagger machina frying brings out that real avoiders hashem you have to recognize that you're alone in other words there's certain aspects of life that you can only tackle alone you can get advice should get advice and you can have company and you can have friendship and mentorship but is ultimately a place where you stand face to face with yourself and it's not it's not because you're antisocial is because people don't have your back even if people do have your back that's also often true that people don't have your back somebody once said just because I'm paranoid it doesn't mean the whole world is not against me but the point is that in a powerful way there's something that I have to make it something I have to make my own decision Vanessa Varsham Levada Hashem is alone in the world and be surely never a eylem sometimes you have to look at yourself that you're alone in the world and therefore the decisions you make are faithful the responsibility you carry is unique because imagine if you were left alone to carry to carry the world now you can get neurotic and do sometimes getting erratic about this I think I heard once from doctor Twersky that when he started off as a psychiatrist he was in hospital once and there was this man who was mentally challenged and he stood all day with his hands up and they could get they could do nothing to get him to put his hands down it was a disaster and everything they tried didn't work and he was a young I think he was a resident or so he said he went over and he whispered something to the man and that person put his hands down and they wanted to know what he said and he said he went over to him and he said I will hold up the world now you could put your hands down I will do it and he put his hands down so basically in his mind you know he was holding up the world and there was no negotiating about that so you have to be careful with these things because you know like everything they could be misconstrued sometimes too of extremities extremes but the point is does all Avada it is omnia data you've gotten Russia there's a place where a person is alone alone means really really alone nobody nobody cops that if I can add some it's a place of essence yeah existentialism yeah so you have an essential ISM again in a very to get in a very depressing way you know but dagger machina fryin brings it out in a very uplifting way in terms of responsibility in terms of empowerment in terms of empowerment venise go hashem Levada it's like Hashem himself LaVonda my mo so on that level you could say God will Hashem Omaha Omaha Ania Dottie I know how god is great because I know me and there's something about God that gets conveyed only through you through nobody else so there's something about truth that every person knows that no other person knows there's no person in the world that cannot share a novel truth to the world or novel truth in the world there's a to put it in in musical terms everyone contributes a distinctive verse or note in the cosmic symphony and your note is indispensable and nobody could play that note because it's my individual note even if I want to I can't play your note I don't have the capacity I have my brain my cell my soul I'm near dotty God lovscheim mother there's something about Hashem and since everything is a Shambo after Mathias column this really means it is something of God that only you Express in the world nobody else could nobody in the past not because they're greater is smaller not because you're more talent or less than that because you're smarter or dumber it's because it's your distinct note in the world this is so important for students in children and youngsters teenagers especially to hear boys and girls that you know this whole thing with competitiveness competitiveness is good to a certain degree when it's there to inspire you to reach your greatness it's horrible when it when it competes with the very nature of people having an identity and their note to play and in that level there's no race there's no race I could try for a hundred years from the date of the more I cannot be you and you cannot be me and don't want to there's a light that you express in the world that I cannot express and there's a light that I express that you can't express and when you express your life I should be happy because that allows me to express my life easier so it's the other way around which was the difference between competitiveness from the Greek perspective and competitiveness from a Jewish perspective it's difference in this net so hemorrhoid net cell has competitors from a Greek perspective and that reason says the net so can I ask on Ekambaram hanukkah's nexif in height is Purim Masonic is basically the battle against the Greeks and this the Greeks were the ones who invented you know the Olympics and tremendous competitive culture now competition does it brings out good stuff in people you know the Olympic Games which the world this will soon be consumed right after the Democratic convention and and all these time is generally sports you know it brings out competition is is powerful keen aside from Tiger Hoffman but this competition Greek Greek star competition to respond okay so it's a significant anthem I'm bringing out that there's something god--all are sama Mahalo murid that's your God Allah Shannon I know something about reality why do I know it because it's it's me it's it's my reality something that you know nobody else like a secret it in a good way a secret then this look at the loss and take little Ozzy and take a means there's a badula that I can't begin to discuss because that's like size of kalam comes the gomorian says and about the cavorts the mahkum chapter might seek de la Sol a summit on my Chen WA snow say what's planned she I for pecially the law saying hey ker even though is godless has no hey Kerr in other words it's it's tremendous when we speak about his godless its in cake I can't investigate it alcohol's and nonetheless with all of this who rom or miss nasty beginners good de la Cite he is greater than being a gobble you ever knew that is something greater than being a girdle he's greater than godless he's greater than Gazoo Dula he's greater than being called great action leaders badula nash of another the shiftless lafawn of his burrow so what we call Ghidorah is actually humiliation is actually a humbling humbling not humiliation humbling it's an another it's an act of self self suspension it's an act of an event shiftless that's the chattering MRT but Malcolm chapter might sing the lossy is not will you find greatness you also find humility let's pop it shot really great people are also humble they're not arrogant what he's saying is deeper but Malcolm shaft might say to us that which we call doula that space that we fine oh that's a doula you should know what it really is it's really is another what's the meaning of this the Gemara says amass after brothers have to do loads ooh my simulations or goes through the hopes on Koshchei module ugh food at the ferrous right I've dualism isolation Stefan is a mountain tyler bringing us a line on that sucks opinion your sonic more goes through the pasta have to do Liz my simulations God Los Alamos and this we say a faker whatever we know about my simulations doesn't scratch the surface of my simulations after thousands of years we know that we still don't understand the secret of one atom we don't understand what's contained in one cell in one cell we don't understand and in a body that's close to a hundred two trillion cells and the word was trillion and we we barely understand what's in one cell in one atom we we barely understand so it's like the law saying hey this is my simulations when you speak about creation you speak about gudule assertion something Amara schemata might send us know say what you're calling doula on one level on another level from another vantage point is actually the ultimate another because here's the question usually and now think about this question does creation Express the Reeb initializer does creation expression the instinctive answer should be of course how does an artist express himself look at his painting how does an architect express himself look at his mansion how does a novelist express himself read his novel how does a composer express himself listen to his Symphony how there's a contract to express himself look at his building every talent every art every artist expresses himself what do I mean himself his creativity his wisdom his brilliance his genius through his might what he creates whether it's the book that he writes or the ballad that he composes or the symphony that he conducts or the mansion that he erects for who leave a in every field of arts and really every trade how does the enterpreneur the businessmen express himself as crucian business you look at her you know how he handles so how does God express himself look around study the universe study the universe it's quite an impressive job as the Year Shani says even if all citizens of the world come together they can't create one year toosh one mosquito one flea they can't create because study the brain of a flea and it can occupy not one lifetime but many lifetimes the brain of a flea that's it which doesn't even look like there's something there ah yes flex that good to Shila so now you to show me let's get inked finish but it says in yiddish sami a film is staunch and cold boy olam they can't create one Yiddish so does express themself and this is one uterus one flea never mind when you study the entire planet and never mind when you study not only planet all the planets and we study the cosmos and even whatever we could study and everybody knows this I mean scientists anybody who studies even a little bit of the world it's astounding it's astounding the the the uniqueness of it the extraordinary wisdom and harmony and brilliance it's beyond what people imagine in all different types of praten Sola fide he expresses himself through the world does he express himself through creation but here were introduced in the concept known as symptom which diarrheal introduced and that's the point he's bringing out here that it's actually the other way around creation does not express but Malcolm chata might say Doulos - I might I might say this no sign what some people call godless actually is a humbling it's an active of which is extremely humbling when you humble yourself it means you're actually stepping out of your natural potentials and you're lowering yourself to be able to be available to the need at hand that's what I love is what we call godless is really a move in other words creation is not an act of self-expression creation is more an act of self suspension of self-forgetfulness of self transcendence and the reason is because if our sham would express himself in creation then everything would appear as is infinite the fact that creation allows for identity and allows for a sense of separation and separateness is actually because creation is much more an act of another than it is an act of self-expression it's about self transcendence or self suspension or self-forgetfulness stepping out of the self rather than expressing more than he expresses himself in creation he actually huh for creation to happen he actually had to hold back not Express the actor withdraws infinity he had to create an empty space that's devoid of his present infinity that's where creation can happen he had to hold back much more than the gift if he would actually Express like the artist does with a piece of art or the novelist does with the book then existence would not be able to be there so the muhkam satellite signal rasa that space that you call dual as I said Wow Wow well actually it's on love it's not a well from your vantage point it's a well from his vantage point it's actually a very humbling experience an act of absolute self suspension self withdrawal self-abnegation it's his bittle it's his bittle to be able to create space for us in tiny he brings the kimono but Mencia other fascinating that he makes this comparison avid attack as a sub awesome the Gemara brings me about certain ami Ryan that their bodies were push it very big and the Gemara asks how was it possible for them to have children Washington gosh miss doesn't seem like they were capable of doing engaging in that would you have to engage their children that

ballot on he uses this Gemara to describe what Simpson is the love that Hashem has he wants to connect with people it shrinks his flesh in other words from infinity he so to speak becomes finite because if he was infinite there's no room for anything infinity excludes all reality so a ver detect assess a posture that's the another that novice the humility to so to speak shrink and suspend his infinity to create space for the you and for the eye to emerge to be able to engage in a relationship so even save of kilometers already another even save of kawaman is already a booking of another because tell you kilometer is also a relationship with the world's it's just a transcendent relationship but it's already a relationship it's like a shovel master Koth ruler that's a relationship that yzma half of all the worlds but that itself is a minion of another even that is a restriction look I be his godless that's what he's saying even a Malian save of is still a preemie that the myth is module is also another verse shuffles the phone of his burrow now this has a lot of ramifications in life as well because when you think about it in many ways you know the house I'll often say that share has him the Madras says sure shade him is a metaphor for the relation between Hashem and the Jewish people which is like a groom and a bride the lover and the beloved Aniela died even ideally the Rambam says in his true vampire if you'd that ostracism is based on the paradigm of that the relation between a Shem and the human being is one of ávila condition and he shower who are extremely enthusiastic about each other and the Rambam is very very detailed and graphically and he'll construe the peer-reviewed about this now the act of creation in other words was an act of according to the Tanja and many others this was a big Eastside by the Talmud about summative really from there is all from desire even more it was basically the ultimate act of love of marriage if you want to say it in simple words you could say that pre creation if I may speak a little irreverent but I don't want to just convey the point pre creation you could say God was a perfect bachelor now a perfect bachelor ask any perfect bachelor they're always perfect they're tall and they're slim and they're wonderful and they're impeccable and they're flawless there's only and they have everything going for them right there's only one issue with a perfect bachelor that is that he's a bachelor which means he's not married because even in 2016 marriage still necessitates another human being I know it may change in the future and after all there is merit to say that you should be able to get married to yourself and get a tax discount because most people have split personality so why not but at least according to the to present conception or definition of marriage you need another person for marriage so the perfect bachelor is perfect but what makes him imperfect is that he's perfect that's the debts of only imperfection you're perfect and therefore you don't need anybody you're self-contained and a relationship requires somebody else in many ways the most perfect bachelor in history was the master himself perfect impeccable flawless infinite certainly good-looking all the money in the world an extra house in Switzerland any rush a lion even a prime everything going for himself the only think of a Alcala sham was missing was that he wasn't missing anything that was the only human know there was no room for a relationship so the act of creation was essentially God's bent for marriage it was a proposal proposal is always vulnerable because she might say no that's why Pyrrha free-choice is so important to you discuss free choice is not a calamity like we often teach people never we have to here because our Shem says you know you have to choose maybe gonna go to get Hannah no here is basically the idea that is a relationship if you don't choose a relationship it's not a relationship it's a dictatorship mouth who say be rots in Kilauea there's a different enamel and a mela marshal is a dictator Fidel Castro would give seven hours of speeches and you had to be there you had to be there because that was part of the maloca I don't have to go so back to speak it goes so far to speak about dictators Mao who say Melek is not a dictator Mao who says always Bharat some Kip Loyola if I didn't choose you you're not my mother here mine my so you flex your muscles you reign over me with your power that's not a king in our vocabulary a king as a king but in in in in tired of my Lucy Barraza here is essential to the story of humanity because it's basically the whole act of creation was God had control he wanted to not have control that's what marriages before you married you have control what happens when you get married ask anybody you don't have control anymore you give up you create space for other nests now that has risks that hasn't everybody knows it's full of risks because when somebody else comes into your life the question is what happens then we all know that it was the old cynical joke right this guy it's Wednesday night then he tells his wife oh my friend you know Yankel is coming over for dinner just suddenly Wednesday at nine o'clock Yanko was coming over dinner the house is a mess I'm not sure s there's no food you what are you what are you inviting a guest Wednesday night without telling me well are you crazy why in the world and sure enough the ankle is ringing the bell he's right there in the houses of mass you know men are clueless and there's no food and she's why in the world would you do this and he whispers just I was coming in basically the poor guy is thinking about marriage I just want to show so so marriage comes with marriage comes with a lot of risks but that's the only way you can have a relationship with somebody else a relationship with somebody else means you create space for the other so here's the big question this is not a theoretical question if your child were asked to in should look some age talk to your mommy what is the prerequisite from what is marriage about is marriage about self-expression or is marriage about self transcendence what is the ultimate purpose of marriage is it about an opportunity to express yourself is it about an opportunity to transcend yourself what is it is it that through your partner you will reach your realization of self or no it's an opportunity actually to forget yourself CreateSpace father's what would you answer if your daughter or son was asking you this question tell me what marriage is about I want to know is it about forgetting yourself or is it about actualizing yourself no really Wow I'll tell your wife you said that so as good Jews were active Kate said Morocco so as good Jews you want to say you know it's both right but there's a beginner could to here because it comes back to creation was creation and act of self-expression or an act of self suspension marriage essentially is a replica of creation you getting married is Hashem creating the world for that sin getting married so when you say the muhkam shot that might see the large amount of my time with snow say it means that one of the deepest components in marriage as prerequisite was Hashem didn't express himself he actually created space for the other the prerequisite to a relationship is creating space for the other another the muhkam shot I might say do loseth on my semo's knows what we call the ultimate greatness of God meaning look at the world Wow for him is actually the place where he's most concealed it's an act of ultimate humility of suspension of lack of expression even though he's expressed in the world but what's expressed in the world was expressed in the world is a very restricted form of reality so therefore this teaches a person also that the prerequisite in a relationship is done love the space we create for the other
