the the the on them like the parenthesis
were written by the
why
yeah
took my momm the transcripts that were
written and he wrote a lot of Harus
when he published the look of the tit
that's how it was published
right
so we began last time we began when was
it Thursday we began the first class on
the mimer alimbat
where it speaks about the wars between
the king and the king of Moyov and the
king is a name who was one of the
greatest kings in the empire of the how
he conquers and alraim the poets
say
come to
and and the br says
that this is all a really a parable it's
a parable for life
those who are they rule the say
right let's come and calculate and do
some reckoning with our world with the
And uh began to explain this. He's going
to get back to it of course later in the
mime. But the first we discussed the
first part of the mime. So uh please
turn to look at
128. Yeah. We started the first
paragraph. We're middle of this. We're
middle of the the next page which is
column one. 129.
Hookas 129. Sam column one. We're middle
of the page. The line starts.
So again,
129 in Hebrew column one. In the middle
of the page, the line starts and we're
holding the words.
Today's class
Today's class is dedicated by a dear
friend Tamil and Judy Goodman
in loving memory of their fathers Kalman
Kaim Ben Rabav and Kaim Zalman Ben Rabav
in their loving memory and
and may their souls be a continuous
source of love and light and inspiration
and confidence and empowerment and
blessings to you and to your children
and to the entire family and all of the
families and all of the communities and
all of our people
until the great moment of
mishain and thank you very very much.
They also dedicated
to their daughter Ora on completing her
IDF services. She's been serving since
October 7th tirelessly with tremendous
devotion to Midas Nefish. Both their
grandfa both her grandfathers would have
been so proud of her sacrifice and
dedication and they want to wish her
maze and only blessings. Amen. Kenya and
thank you so much.
So the safi tells us that everything is
divided or everything is connected to
sha nepheshm
is space sha is time and neph is
consciousness soul and the way the
alterb explained it was that is the
world and the world includes where every
every single creation
every single creation is part of from
the tiniest to the are just from the
inorganic, inanimate to the organic, the
animal kingdom to the human race to the
world of produce and plants and to the
inanimate.
Everything in our planet and everything
on all other planets and everything in
all other worlds, physical and
spiritual, it's all and the diversity is
endless. As he said, everybody's gof,
everybody's goof is made differently.
It's a different chemistry
and it's therefore capable of channeling
different frequencies of awareness and
of energy. You can't compare the brain
of a squirrel to the brain of a
chimpanzeee, the brain of a chimpanzeee
to the brain of a human being. You can't
compare the chemistry of what the stars
are made up of or the planets are made
up of to what mountains are made up of
even though there's similarities. And
that's and then you have nephesh.
Nephesh is the divine energy that
animates it called mimal kalman. It
fills it, it animates it, it vivifies it
and it is really one with it. That is
what it really is. It's manifesting that
energy through its caum through its
vessels. That's nephesh. That's the
soul, the spirit, the consciousness that
vibrates and cruises through everybody
and everything. And just like has
endless levels because everything in the
is unique, right? Even twins don't have
an identical DNA. Everything has its
unique imprint. Even though there's the
common denominators, there's the
similarities because ultimately it's all
made from one source. So there's an ato
that pervades, but nonetheless, the sea
or the form is different. So has endless
levels. And as you said, you can't
compare the goof of the the body of the
rock, right? The physical container of
the rock, so to speak, and the physical
container of the human soul, of the
human being, the physical container of
the plant, of a blade of grass to the
physical container of the lion, which is
an animal with consciousness, with
emotion, or the elephant. You can't. And
yet even the blade of grass, we say
There's no grass that doesn't have also
a spiritual force. So just like is so
diverse is diverse. Meaning the kios the
life of godliness is tailor made and
custom like to fit the hand inside the
glove. It has to be perfect for this
glove. If the hand is too big, it won't
be able to fit in this glove. If the
hand is too small, again the glove won't
be able to carry this hand. So this is
true. True. They write that the nephesh
is custom made and tailor made with
precision to the
and then he added the last point was sha
time
and this was the critical point that the
this life force is renewed every single
moment
as we say in twice in the beginning of
the first blessing before at the end of
the first blessing right in the
beginning
which he quoted here and then at the end
of the same blessing we say it again
just a little bit different but the same
concept
and he explained that the concept of
this renewal has to do with that since
essentially you're dealing with
with infinity so there is a paradoxical
motion in every single
aspect of the energy that animates the
world. One is rats which is the yearning
to go back to its source and be subsumed
just complete infinity and yet which is
the instinct to return and animate that
which is
in a way that is finite so that it
should be able to exist and that's why
the whole system of life is based on
these paradox as he gave the example of
the human breathing the nishima the
exhaling and the inhaling
and also the circulatory system of the
heart contracting and expanding which is
all a reflection of the of the whole
world which is
and as as we explained at length in the
first in the previous year very much at
length and as a result of that time is
created because what essentially is time
if the kay of Hashem would just be
communicated to the world and stay like
that that's what it would be just energy
so it would be what it is But because
the kayas is defined by a paradox,
there's a flow and then it returns and
then it flows again and returns which is
why it's constantly renewed every
moment. And that is essential to life
because if any of the two wouldn't
happen, the whole system would fall
apart because it's all about
communicating the infinite to the
finite. So therefore in the kay itself
there is a paradox and that's what is on
one hand it feels this is not my place.
I want to go back to the source. And yet
this is my place because this is my
mission. That paradox that the kay
itself is conflicted in its own
identity. I'm here but I'm not here but
I'm here but I'm not here but I'm here
and I'm here. And in the here it's right
away taken over by the feeling I'm not
here. I'm not supposed to be here. And
then of course I'm supposed to be here.
That is what time looks like. That is
time. The way it evolves and comes down
in our world. It's the tangible time
that we relate to which is the second is
it's not. It of course it is. No, it's
not.
That is in the most tangible
incarnation.
Tangible. I mean, it's not so tangible,
but relative to what Zman is in a higher
plane, this is how it comes out.
You can't hold on to it. You can't
control it at all. You can only be part
of it. You can't control it. You can't
hijack it. You can't contain it. You
only surrender to it and become part of
it.
That's the only way to deal with it and
if not it's a true tyrant and a dictator
as we explained at length in the
previous class. And with this ends my
summation
okay
[Laughter]
and uh and uh every summation needs a sh
to be able to finish it and we continue.
And if you didn't understand anything I
said, don't worry. It's hard stuff, but
you can listen to the previous class
because we discussed it relatively.
So now continues
this is a very very
sha is the between and it's the the
matchmaker between nephesh and is sh
because sha is a product of so that's
the the bridge between nephesh which is
pure infinity and which is all about
parameters and boundaries and finitness
and you need a shkin
that is sha That's what time is.
Interface.
Yeah. An interface. Yeah. Time. Time is
the embodiment of the paradox. That's
what it is, right? It's here and it's
not here. It's here and it destroys
itself. It's here and it delegitimizes
itself. The mo at that very moment. You
can't even hold on to it for what we
would call a split second. Doesn't
exist. You say, "Okay, so now is now."
Not anymore.
The moment you hold on to it, you're not
holding on to anything, right?
It's very very elusive. That's exactly
the point. It's elusive. It's not not
containable.
Yeah. Always a rhythm. That is that is
what it is. It's a rhythm. And that is
the flow of life. That is the of life.
It is a rhythm. And if you try to like
boom, I have it. You have anything but
it.
Huh.
Right? And as we explained, that's why
life is always now. It's it's it's being
part of that rhythm, not being stuck in
anything else.
The ego has a hard time with that. The
ego, as we explained, wants to control.
It wants to take you out of the rhythm
because it wants to have some form of
control. It wants to stay small and
safe, but at least safe and in control.
So this is the the these are the three
dimensions of Sha and Nephesh.
now continues
now after we gave this
which is the critical of
now one should which now it's time to
explain what is the word and the meaning
of the word so usually we translate it
as world and he explained it here it's
not just the whole world it's every part
of the world is every pebble is every
grain of sand, every flake of snow,
every droplet of water is ism. Yeah.
Every cell is every neuron, every atom,
it's all it all makes up the it all
makes up the universe. It all makes up
the world. And then there's everything
on this planet and then there's other
planets and then there's higher worlds
and higher worlds and it's all part of
that's what he explained.
And that's why there's so many so many
so many different levels and it's all
based on as he put it his
he said earlier right the refinement of
the material of the fabric from which
the is made
he said you can't compare the body of a
human being to the body of a blade of
grass as I said earlier it's all part of
but it's a different and therefore it
channels a different aspect of nephesh a
different aspect of of of divinity. See
he says but now let's understand the
word the word
what is it
because the one aspect you have to
understand here is that the key word is
and here is the real ethmology
The shyish the root of the word is helm
concealment
from the word helm which in Hebrew is
right what is
many helm is
you have
in you forget something it's concealed
from you
it says in vanelum it's concealed
it's hidden information it's not it's
not it's not conspicuous.
So he says so he says this divine divine
energy in every world which is mislabbed
by it's manifested and it's integrated
in it to give it life
and we call that life force nefes it's
like the soul in its own body what do we
see by the soul and the body the body is
alive from the soul every single moment
but the soul is not visible the soul is
mist the goof is a real lavush a real
lavush means it truly dresses it
and completely conceals it.
In other words, the entire relationship
we have with our soul is only via the
mechanism of the body.
Most people don't have a tangible
relationship with their soul. What does
my soul look like? I don't know my body.
I can hopefully have a relationship with
your body. This is not to be detached,
but if you have a relationship with your
body, that's that's the vista to your
soul. That's where we begin.
And in many ways that's where we end
those. So it's all through the gof. You
can you can know you're in shama but
it's all through the gof. What your
heart is experiencing, what your legs
are experiencing, what your chest is,
what your head is experiencing.
So it's like an shama with its own goof.
The same is true the ultimate ne the
cosmic neesh with the cosmic goof.
Because the human being is a mush. It's
a metaphor. Our goof is like the cosmic
goof. It's it's it's it's a tiny branch
from the cosmic body.
And then you have your sh is like one
one frequency of light from the cosmic
of the entire
metaphorically it's like
the king who sits in his room in his
chamber in his sanctuary in his palace.
means quarantined, right? Locked in and
concealed.
Everybody knows that there's a mel but
in especially these days when said this
I think 1807 this
to see the melik was a unique privilege.
That's not a simple thing. You know he's
there, but the room contains him and the
room the room conceals him.
He's not exposed to anybody.
Huh? Yeah. Yeah.
So the room on one hand is his presence.
His presence is there, but it's presence
in a way that if you're outside of the
walls of that room, you have no access
to that presence. Not in a visible way.
There may be a knowledge but not a a
visible relationship, a visceral
relationship.
This is all a metaphor.
The light and the of divinity of is
closed. It's enclosed and it's concealed
inside all of the worlds.
All the worlds and all the is the
chambers just like we said by the king
conceal and eclipse the light of the
divine that it shouldn't be revealed.
Just like
it's concealed. It's not visible. It's
not conspicuous.
He sees but is not seeing. Look over
there in
that's why they're really called
every has a dual function. On one hand
it manifests the light because that's
what it is. It's a reflection. It's a
manifestation of the light. But
precisely in that moment it also
conceals the light. And of course the
two are dependent on each other because
if it wouldn't conceal the light it
wouldn't be able to be is defined by
whatever it's defined by the brain of a
human being by the body of a human being
or by any other creature. In order for
it to be defined that way, the nephesh
which is the is limiting itself in order
to become the engine and the chemistry
and the creative force which gives life
and existence and creation and
functionality to this being with all of
its aspects. The entire chemistry
physical chemistry is essentially a
manifestation of the spiritual
chemistry. If the spiritual chemistry
would be just revealed as pure infinity
as pure limitless as pure blev as pure
ah
then the would not be the it is. So
therefore the walls of the chamber
conceal the king the very product of the
conceals the is really its entire mits
its entire existence
and we have that in the person every
moment the body is being vivified by the
nishama by the consciousness by the
inner consciousness but we don't have a
direct experience of that pure
consciousness it's always through the
goof through the helm of the goof
ah however
how much is there concealment? That
depends that depends on what it is. Just
like we said before, there's so many
different levels of
and because of that there's so many
different ways in nephesh and and
because of that there's so many
different levels in sh time. The same is
true about this point the helm. It
depends the depth of it, the magnitude
of the concealment. That's that's always
commenurate with the level of the that
you're talking about from the higher
level from the highest to the lowest
as explained before.
What do we mean by a higher world? What
do we mean higher? That the helm of is
not so intense.
The helm is less dense. It's more
transparent.
Opacity.
The capacity.
Opacity.
Opacity. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. The see-throughness is much
more powerful.
Yeah. Yeah. And the lower it gets, what
does it mean? Lower. Lower doesn't mean
physically lower on top of the mountain.
Lower means it's more opaque, more more
eclipsed, more helm.
Talking about
talking about
No. No. There's our world, this per
earth, there's higher planets and then
there's spiritual worlds.
Well, there's what
etc.
So he's saying the higher a world is
what does it mean that is less the
concealment is less
virtue
is less
less
It's more fusion.
More fusion. Yeah.
So it's not only less
it's less liquid.
It's more fusion.
More fusion. Yeah. Exactly. Yeah.
As the mad as the steps continue to
descend more and more
from one cause from one antecedent to
its effect and then to another
antecedent because one becomes an all
becomes an for the next lowest level and
then that all becomes an
so it's always going down and down. So
what in one world is an alul in a lower
world that becomes an
right
in the higher world was a child like
said in is be do you want to be a tail
of the lions or a leader of the foxes
right do you want to be the lowest level
of the higher world or do you want to be
the highest level of the lower world
it's an interesting question you want to
be a son of la oralam huh
You want to be a big fish in a small
pond or you want to be a tiny invisible
fish in a big pond. Which one do you
want to be? Huh? You don't have to
answer.
So theul in a higher world, it's an it's
a result. It's a child in the lex world
that becomes the Yeah. He becomes
and so it goes. He did this. That's what
he means.
You start off as an and then and then
you become an etc etc. So in that whole
process
until the end of the world of the world
of action
as in our humble world
the concealment reaches its full
crescendo.
The darkness reaches its full intensity.
Where do you see it?
To the point that heaven and earth
become visible as
that's the the thesanity of this world.
It's gashifred.
It's almost like is describing how hard
it is for him to believe this that there
could be such a mitz. There's gasham
nifred mish gasha means it's physical
nifred means it's separate and mamish
means and it's nifred like it's not a
joke all the philosophies in the world
don't take away that that's the visceral
experience of our world the heaven and
earth
reach a place of helm in the lowest
space that what that they they
experience themselves and we experience
them because we're part of this world as
completely physical realities ities
really separate from any source without
without alignment without oneness.
The moment you go higher than this
material universe
says we say in
once you hit which means a higher space
there's already a consciousness of of
prostrating themselves of continuous
there's a continuous relationship
there's a gratitude there's a surrender
and when we say it's not just spiritual
even in this world itself you could see
different gradations
The higher planets you could sense more
all of the galum the planets they have
such a in there's such a life force over
there it's so intense even if you talk
for example the speed the speed of
things that it has symptoms it has more
symptoms of of ble
once you hit our our space
below the moon
our elements
here there's such a there's a thickness
there's a density in the in the material
or it's like for example the physical
earth the physical soil the physical
dust it just is
it doesn't necessarily mean that
fact that it's not one state
right
motion movement the garra says that
everything it goes right east to west is
so it's a form of the point is that
there is a a dynamic over there that
represents the that's why he brings this
that's
I
that it's
like the sun is almost I'm looking for
God. I'm looking, you know, I'm just
looking for God.
Well, the faster it goes, the
the speed represents it's the physical.
It's a physical manifestation of a
tremendous passion.
A yearning, a passion to the point of
uncontrollable. The sun is moving with
200 km per second.
Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. 180 light travels.
Light itself.
Right. Yeah. 200 km per second.
Wow.
I mean obviously planets go around them
together. We are too.
Yeah. We are too.
We are even more because our own.
So you're saying the sun travels 200 km
per second. W Yeah.
A little bit more. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So asks a other what's
the secret? What what's what what's vu
vu relax
and he says that there's there's there's
a spiritual consciousness of such
inspiration.
It can't relax.
It's like you see somebody hears an
unbelievably piece of news whether
negative or or or positive and they're
overwhelmed. Relax. I can't relax.
We tell the sun to relax, right? Cuz we
were like, what are you doing? Relax.
But in that's what he's saying that the
moment you go higher, if you open up a
little more of the you see. No, there's
how could you relax? You know what's
going on? Do you understand what's going
on there?
Because they feel more what's going on.
They can't relax.
Of course, That's why the that's the
whole point of the mime. You see it in
in science. The deeper you go into the
the more the more insanity, the more
chaos in a good way, the more speed,
right? You go to the atomic level.
You're looking at a t like you look at
what do you see? Nothing.
I'm here. I'm here. I'm always here.
I'll always be. I'm not a I don't I
don't I don't budge for anybody.
That's what tells you. I don't get
excited by everything. You can do
whatever you want. Yeah.
Organized chaos. organized chaos.
Exactly. Tremendous. Tremendous is
not
very
No. So that's the point that on the
level of the more the that's what he
means
and don't mean in space. doesn't it
could also be in space but it doesn't
mean that necessarily. He means in terms
of reflecting the internal
energy
like like he says the melik in the room
if somebody's in the room or there's at
least a window there's there's an
opening to what's inside
there's a densess a denseness it's like
it looks par it looks like it's
paralyzed like he says gishim
looks like it's separate broken lonely
paralyzed and just pure physicality when
the truth is there's no such It's a
thing. It's all consciousness
and it's alive. And and you see it also
with a person. The more the body
reflects and manifest the soul, the more
dynamic, the more creativity, the more
energy.
And that's why the deeper you go into
the the deeper you go into the material,
the more you see movement and not just
movement, but speed in a ways that are
incomprehensible.
Right? Everything is made up of atoms.
Everything the atoms are the building
blocks of the world. Everything is built
from atoms. So when we look at
something, we say it's
that very division is a very external
division. What makes means silent dead
what? Because that's what it looks like.
Is called trees are called animals are
called humans are called. But that's
from an outer perspective. It's
important to know the difference between
a mountain and an animal. Yeah.
But behind it all,
but behind it all, if you go deeper to
the if you go to if you go to the the
the deeper core of the earth, anything
even a grain of sand, the atoms are not
dead,
constant motion.
Constant motion and with a speed that's
incomprehensible. The nucleus there's
the atom has a nucleus, a center, right?
And then you have the the the circle so
to speak around that center and the
speed of it is incredible. And that
speed is essential to the life force. If
not it falls apart.
So what is that? That's a form of
in the planets you see it with your
eyes. On here we don't see it with our
eyes. In fact, you need a microscope.
That's why it's less. That's why
huh. superposition
of course
less
and therefore the deeper you go the the
superp position because defining it in
one space that's a product of p that's a
product of separateness
infinity is not here or there so the
more the is reflecting what it really is
the less it's defined by one space
yeah and the same is true with time also
changes with speed everything changes
Because the moment you go up a madrega,
the moment you go up a level, space
changes and time changes and everything
else changes because nephesh because
nephesh is more. Remember the whole
point is that and nephesh and sh are all
reflecting each other. So the level of
is based on what nephesh it's it's it's
it's transporting it's transmitting it's
revealing which is based on the helm the
concealment.
less congested.
Less congested, less dense. Yeah. Yeah.
It's actually interesting because
I mean we travel
20 km hour as the earth and then the sun
200 km per second per second. 20 km per
second. 200 km per second. The galaxy
600 km per second. Galaxy moves like
really fast. So we're just chasing each
other. How fast does the galaxy go?
About 600 km per second.
Per second.
600 km per second.
That's like 350 miles per second.
Almost.
Huh?
We're almost in California.
No,
we pass now. We passed California
already. Yeah.
California.
Whoever's in California, I don't know if
they're up yet, but yeah. Good morning.
Huh? Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. When it says it says in that inn
is
[Music]
what does that mean? Really it's not
mafik. You're in Australia. I'm here. Of
course it's mafik. The answer is of
course it's mafik. When you're in a
place of course it's mafik. There's a
wall between you and me. It's a mitz. Of
course it's mafik.
The moment you go out of that place of
even in physical that's what he's
smoking when he say he says even in this
world the moment you go to a place
that's deeper than the mak is not mik
this man is not mafik the time and the
space and if you go deeper then there's
no time and space
right
yeah yeah that's what it means beyond
time beyond space
I mean so it's so ridiculous for our
mind to understand the sun makes a
circle around the galaxy. I think it's
like in 200 million years.
Imagine the space of our takes and it
runs 200 km per second, right?
But it still takes like 200 million just
to get.
So that's what's that's what's so
astanding like why is the sun running so
fast? Like usually we run because
there's like a destination. You need to
get there by six o'clock. So you run and
run and run and run and run and it
doesn't stop. So there's obviously some
fire in the belly, some fire in the
belly of the sun burning.
It says in medish that you know Yeshua
says Yeshua stopped the sun. He said she
says in that giml on the third of Yeshua
stopped the sun. He said she
so the says how did he stop the sun? He
commanded it to stop saying
He commanded the galgalum to stop saying
sh.
Yeah. In other words, it's all the sh
it's all a song. It's a dance. The son
is dancing for the and you could learn
from it what it means to dance without
self-consciousness. Like we spoke about
David,
right? And his wife felt insulted and
denigrated and she rebuked him. How do
you embarrass yourself this way? And
David said, "I would do it even more.
I would do it even more.
This is not called embarrassing. She
said she's like, "You're one of the
maids. You're one of the you're one of
the bums in the street who has no job.
This is not normal. This is not how you
know fine is behaved. It's not
aristocracy." And Malik says, "No, that
is that's the real aristocracy."
So the sheamesh one thing it doesn't
have is doesn't have an ego. It doesn't
have self-con doesn't need a shik. It
doesn't have to be a upright standing
member in the community. Doesn't have to
get its girls into seminary.
It's already in the seminary. It's in
God's seminary. So, it's it's of course
it's running. There's even a when you
know what the sheh is experiencing, then
you would ask why it's not running even
faster.
That's the pella.
And it's a that that question I heard
from their but
because gimmel Thomas is the day that
Yeshua stopped the son. So he spoke a
whole Indian of that. So he said if you
would know with experience what the
she's experiencing the
he gave us the pel.
[Music]
So this is the in that the deeper you go
into the right the movement is so much
more powerful and and even faster
because even the faster represents the
fact that it can't contain itself.
Remember the physical and the spiritual
reflect each other. The more rzo there
is
spiritually the more rut there's going
to be physically. When a person is
running for their life they're going to
run much faster. Yeah. When you're just
running to get a lollipop you're going
to run slower. The deeper the the
emotion, the deeper this physical speed
too. Everything reflects each other. The
adrenaline, the you the blood that's
pumping, the muscle, the heart response,
the goof responds to the nephesh.
The more meaning, the faster you go.
So all of the goofy, everything that
exists in the higher sphere in our own
world, the is more transparent.
So they're like, "How could you be
relaxed? What do you think? We live on
Earth. We don't live on earth. We live
in heaven. We're not We don't We're not
couch potatoes.
They're so aware of the energy of the
divine energy and they're so overwhelmed
and excited by it that uh they're
running. And the same is true in a
person. The the moment there's a a
puncture in the helm of the goof and the
goof is more in touch with the soul, the
person's energy is not just quadrupled,
but it's magnified infinitely.
All depression, all anxiety, all
paralysis, all deadness is the more the
goof is is is hiding the nephesh
misalignment.
Misalignment. Yeah.
And when the goof is not milish anymore,
there's a a natural flow of light and
therefore tremendous excitement and joy.
And that's really what joy is. Joy is
not a created emotion. We learned in
scis it's really creating an opening
when there's a flow that the is not just
pure plain deadimemer
on its own is dead it's supposed to be
dead you're feeling dead yeah no
question it's actually it's actually
appropriate feeling it's dead is dead
the only thing that makes not dead is
elus
nephesh spirit consciousness it is dead
so of So if I'm only feeling my yeah I'm
dead.
Sometimes it's opposite more person is
secular appears like it's super alive
but it could be dead.
Well there's always a there's always a
question you know if if I'm busy living
or I'm busy dying. Right. You could be
busy dying. You understand the
difference?
Like a fish crying fish.
Exactly.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I told you once was
this uh I'm not going to say the story
now but when you take out a fish from
the water it looks very very ledic
in the water the fish is very very calm
and can even seem lifeless take out the
goldfish from your tank in your dining
room and suddenly you'll see it's doing
hakus
but come back 30 seconds later and uh
vadash
so not everyone who's leaping and
jumping
Not it's not always a sign of life.
Sometimes it's the opposite.
People who have very very exciting
lives, every night they're somewhere
else. I'm not sure that they're busy
living. Sometimes they're busy dying.
I run here. I run there. Run, run, run,
run, run, run. It's distractions. It
looks on the outside. It looks, yeah,
I'm very, very busy. I'm very busy. Such
a long night.
But that's not their life necessarily.
His life is in presence. It's the
quality.
There's a person who could be in the
same place for many, many years, but
they're alive like the fish. Fish is
very happy in the water. I'm alive. I
don't need action. You don't have to
take me anywhere. I don't have to go to
dinners, banquetss. So, I'm good right
here. Keep me in the water. Invisibility
is perfect for me.
It's it's connected to its source.
That's what it is. It's how how
connected I am to my source. That's not
about how many places I visit, how many
people I speak to, how many interesting
projects I'm involved in, how many
things I know, how many windows are open
at the same time on my phone and
computer. That's how it's connected
with,
right?
Somebody told me that there was a
teenage girl and she took her life and
the mother was at the funeral. So the
mother like a little maybe naive or
innocent she's like I don't understand
like very few people came. She's like on
Facebook she has so many friends where
are they all on Facebook she has so many
friends where are all these people
right? So there's friends and there's
friends
so
in every situation the more the is
connected and aligned with the source
and less concealing of it the more
there's a flow of life there's a flow of
creativity.
And when a person feels the dulling of
life, they need to be able to stop and
breathe and tune into the fact that
there's a disalignment over there. That
the body is shutting down. It's it's
it's somehow afraid or somehow doesn't
have the tools right now to open itself
up. It's like closing down. It's like
shutting down and it's creating a bigger
wall on a mita and therefore you're
feeling this. So you don't have to take
it so seriously. It's just that there's
a disalignment. There's a blockage. And
that blockage is part of our life. It's
part of the whole world. This is what
this world is. That's what that is
saying.
That's why it says about the future
comes.
The expression is that heaven will go up
like smoke and earth will uh decompose
like a garment. What's the point? It's
not a doomsday dire warning. It's
basically
the decomposition of the of the of the
of the of the brute and crass and and um
and gross material and fabric that
eclipses the nephesh. That's what's
going to rattle away. That's what's
going to decompose.
There will be renewed a new light, a new
creation, a new heaven and earth. It
says
built
This is what has described here. You
have it going to be a new heaven and a
new earth. What does it mean a new
heaven and a new earth? So, doesn't it
mean that the world will physically be
destroyed?
Apocalypse just destruction and
purgatory which means consciousness.
There'll be a new heaven and new earth
that I make. So, he says that is the new
heaven and new earth. Everybody touches
the p. I'm going to make a new heaven
and a new earth. He says, "No, the new
heaven and the new earth is going to be
one that you'll see that I made it."
That's
that is the new heaven and the new
earth. In other words, right now the
heaven and the earth that we know
conceal the they conceal the that's why
it's called from the word.
Of course, there's many levels of but
from the highest to the lowest it's all.
The question is how deep, how powerful,
how potent the concealment is. What
happens? It's a new heaven and a new
earth. It's not opaque. It's
transparent. Not only translucent, but
transparent. You know the difference.
You know the difference between
translucent and transparent.
The other one is color.
So one you could see through, but one is
not just you could see through. It's
complete. Complete. There's no
opakquakeness. There's no there's no
blockage.
Yeah.
And that's
we're going to see eye to eye. What does
mean eye to eye? You know when you see
we see eye to eye means the way you see
it is how I see it. I and means God's
eye and my eye are going to meet. We're
going to ah we're living in the same
world. Ah wow.
That's when a relationship begins,
right? When you when you see eye to eye,
we're living in the same world because
two people could live in the same house,
sit at the same table, sit at the same
couch, but they're not living in the
same world. That's how it is very often.
United,
huh?
United untied,
right?
Oh, united untied.
Yeah. Yeah.
Very nice.
So therefore it's going to be
all this that we spoke about about
Shaesh
world which is the container time which
is
which is divine consciousness. All this
that the is enclosed in every world and
every world according to its er
according to its price meaning according
to its measurement and chemistry as
explained
and no two are the same because
everyone is a different space of how
refined the kali is and how deep the
concealment is and therefore what
manifest from the
this is what we mean when we say he
fills the world.
That is what the word male means. Means
it's the light and it's the energy that
is enclosed and concealed in the worlds.
And the word is vanilla male almond.
Alman means world and alman means
concealments. He fills all the
concealments.
Why? It's the same thing. For there to
be there needs to be concealment. Mal
means concealment. Mali means I fill
you. I don't fill myself. I'm not
expressing myself. I'm filling you. To
fill you, there has to be you. I have to
be tailorade. I can't fill you by just
expressing myself. Right? And everybody
understands that in any relationship
take a child a student. You want to
express yourself or you want to fill the
other person connect to the other person
that requires symptom. It requires
holding back and actually tuning in to
their life force to their frequency. So
the word mimal means you're filling the
kali. For that you have to be measured
according to the kali according to the
vessel which means you have to be
concealed.
You have to consider the walls. The king
in our marshall the king has to remain
in the sanctuary with these walls. Yeah.
I can't go outside of this. I can't be
visible.
The reason the neph is concealed is out
of respect to the goof.
It doesn't want to overload. It doesn't
want to overwhelm. It doesn't want you
to go into chaos and psychosis.
And all mental all breakdowns is
essentially too much. The and the kali
are not working with each other. That's
why people are struggling the most.
Usually have the deepest light, not the
less light. They have more light.
The medical community still needs to
catch up because usually what we want to
do is we want to shut down their light
so they're normal. That's not that's not
their healing. Their healing is by
giving them the vessels to understand
their light. That's a different avoid.
It's not simple. I'm not saying it's
simple. I'm just saying it's a different
approach.
The approach that we have today is
you're crazy. So shut down your light
and become normal like me. just be like
me.
Slow things down.
Slow things down. But that's not the
issue. The issue is not that there's no
there's too much and the kali doesn't
know how to handle it. So it creates
tremendous chaos.
That's that's that's why is malam.
That's what's so important to
understand. It's not this two separate.
He fills the world and he fills the
concealments. It's the same thing. Is
helm. Why is it helm? Because that is
the definition of the definition of is
not what god gives. It's what God holds
back.
The act of creation was an act of self-
suspension much more than of
self-expression.
Right? That's the whole of Tim. The act
usually we speak about creativity is
expression. You say your creative show
me your creative power. Look at this
art. Look at this architecture. Look at
this music. Look at this literature.
Whatever field of creativity, right?
Look at this athletic display. It's
creativity.
So when you want to look at God's
creativity, you look at the world. He
says, "No, no, no, no. Actually, what
you're seeing is what you're seeing is
the the ability to suspend, to to re to
conceal, to hide much more than reveal.
The creativity requires
a complete sense of a very profound
sense of self self- concealment,
self-suspension.
And when there's too much of it, it's
not it's not the kali. So that's the
idea of soal means I fill you. And to
fill you, there has to be you. I want
there to be you. So therefore, the is
measured according to the kal and
therefore it's concealed. As much as
it's expressed in it, it's concealed by
it in order for it to maintain its
identity.
And the higher the world, the less it's
concealed. the more flow the lower the
world for the to be for the to bear.
You don't want offer to be the sun. You
want offer it to be earth over there.
There's more helm. There's more
concealment.
Yeah, that's clear. That's what he's
saying.
It's for the whole structure for the
structure to be maintained.
But now there's another.
So everything we're talking
which so much of is based on
is saying all of it is true. But you
have to understand one thing. It's all
malic.
It's all malic.
And because it's all malic now I'm
giving a little bit commentary here. And
because it's all malik so you could
learn kabala your whole life and you
could nosh from kabala and you could
take kabala and you could play with
kabala or not. I don't mean play in a
bad way. I mean you could nash from it
in this and you know all the levels of
but it's all
say it's all everything you're dealing
with
which is incredible. It's amazing.
It's the whole spectrum of existence as
we know it and as we don't know it much
more than we don't know. You know we
don't still don't even know an atom. But
whatever we touch, we're touching it
from the spect from the perspective from
the experience of a mole as opposed to
as opposed to what's going to be the
next piece in the M.
And and just as a little intro to what's
going to happen here is because
the MA began after the after the after
he spoke about
70 years the began understanding why the
came into the g we say but he says
doesn't make sense because before the
came down it was in such a lofty space
of standing before God why does it have
to go through such a drastic descent as
he said
such a stupendous to come into a
physical
in a very lowly world when anyway when
the nishama leaves the goof it's going
back to where it So it was there. So why
leave this bliss and this amazing unity?
It can't get any higher. So you leave it
just to come back there. So don't take
me away. You slept me out. You tear you
tear this soul away from its mother's
arms. And then you say much and then
you're going to come back. If you're a
good boy, you're going to go back. Thank
you.
That's that's that's a big question.
In other words, if you tell me that the
nishama before came down into the goof
wasn't in such a good place, I
understand. But the nish was in the best
place possible. There's nothing that's
better than oneness with God. So why
change the equilibrium? Why break up the
system? Why, as they say, why ruin
something that's working? It's working.
It's nice. It's beautiful.
That was the question of the
said in order to understand this, we
have to understand.
And then he starts off with a whole
explanation of
that is the that is grasped in the
worlds and it comes down with a seder
and a shea and it's grasped inside the
world meaning it's defined by each world
containing it and owning it. In other
malic you that is malic
it's really God but it's you. It's the
way divinity becomes you. That's the
whole point of it.
So yeah, you are the real you. The real
you is the neph that's that was the
whole that's how we start.
So you have to understand what he's
saying.
As long as you only know about you'll
never have an answer to the question of
why the soul came down.
It's it's it's it's a crazy thing. You
went it was in the best place possible.
What can you give a person more than
complete intimate connection with God?
What else do you want?
Right. So what else? What am I going to
cotton candy? What am I going to give
you? Rice.
I'll give you a building. What am I
giving you? Real estate, a nice coat, a
nice suit, a nice tie, expensive. What
am I giving you? What are you giving the
nish? You have to have a good reason.
A person buys a lottery ticket, he gives
up $1, $2 or $10 hoping he's going to
get $300 million.
It's usually the guy in Montana wins,
not the guy in Brooklyn. But okay, a
month. But fine, that's part of uh part
of the the world.
But I hear you're giving away $1, hoping
you're going to get $300 million. That's
how life works. You invest in a company
$10,000 or $100,000 or $5 million and
you hope you're going to get back $20
million or at least make back the money.
This all makes sense. You're tearing
away something precious for you. But
there's a not
here. What are you doing? You're taking
it away from to give it what? Candies?
A cup of coffee. It's nice to have a cup
of coffee once you're in the world. A
cup of coffee is nice. We're not
complaining. But is the so he say no
you're going to go back to Ganed I was
there you know that famous very cute
parable about this you know my
this multi-millionaire
here from America and he decides he
needs vacation
right so he's getting rid of his phone
for three weeks and he goes to some
remote island in India you know the ma
yeah huh
yeah and there's a guy over there on a
boat fishing all day and he gives him
rides back and forth and then he says
you know I'll make a fish for you
and it's the best fish he ever tasted in
his life and he's sitting there by
sunset you know and enjoying the fish at
the at the water it's like wow this is
life you know and it's amazing amazing
and and he's there and he's overwhelmed
by the fish and he meets the guy the
last day and he says you know I have an
amazing idea for you this fish can go
cra this can go viral
you know there's no reason you're making
you know $5 a day five miserable dollars
a day and living in this hut and here at
the water. And he says, "What can I do?"
And he explains to him a system of how
he has to hire people and delegate and
catch more fish and then buy a kitchen
and then buy chefs and then you have to
label it and transport it and
commercial. But you need freezers, a
whole infrastructure. But you know what?
I'll invest. I'll invest with you and
it's going to be a multi multi-million
dollar business cuz fish like this
nobody has.
So the guy looks at him, you know, he
never heard these ISIS and he said,
"What happens afterwards?" He says,
"Afterwards, you make millions of
dollars." He says, "What happens
afterwards?" He says, "With millions of
dollars you could do whatever you want."
He says, "For example, you can go on
vacation for three weeks, not worry
about anybody and anything, and sit at
the water for as long as you want." He
says, "I do that.
I do that with my $ five dollars, right?
Huh?
Yeah. You know, we make a joke, but how
true is it about so many aspects of
people's lives?
Huh?
I get it. I get it. So, it's all about I
chose it because I have $20 million in
the bank and I chose this guy Nebach has
to do it. He likes it, but how do he
compare to me? I'm overwhelmed and
stressed, but I choose it and he just
has it.
The truth is the question is much
greater than the answer because so much
of life is just fitting in to models and
expectations created completely by
others and everybody's just trying to
catch up. As somebody once said, we
create institutions to facilitate our
dreams and then we become prisoners to
those institutions created by our
dreams. Initially the institutions were
dreamed they were reflections of dreams
but then the institution becomes anar
and now you just got to fit in
and it's important when we spoke about
what's really this is really what means
means how much of my life is responding
to pressures and expectations created by
others who were themselves are
responding to pressures created by
others right it's like somebody once
said you know in my mother's house we
only ate lef leftovers. We're still
looking for the original meal.
You know, what's the original meal? You
know what what what's it all what's
what's it all for?
It's not such an easy answer because you
know people are married, they they're
they have children, right? It's nice go
to India to a lake and sit there. I
mean, it sounds romantic, but it's also
not it's also sometimes, you know,
another
that's completely divorced from who the
person is. It's a very internal space of
of energetic consciousness.
How did I get into all of this? Oh, so
you tell the nama, go to the world, make
millions and millions and millions of
dollars.
Millions of dollars says, "What do I
have? You'll come back.
I'm here. Thank you.
There's something off about it." No. Now
you'll come back with more receipts,
with more toys.
It had already everything. In other
words, the premise is if it's one with
God before,
you're not going to get better than
that.
So, you have to
and then you also tell them, by the way,
if you mess up, you're going to get
you're not coming back so fast. Really,
don't give me your honey and don't give
me a bite. Don't give me I'm very I'm
happy very the nectar is very nice and
gaden before. I want you to understand
this question that comes up in every not
in every mime but in probably many many
of the my it's it's a heights kasha why
it's a it's it's the fundamental
question because it goes back to square
one where what is all of existence about
if you don't answer this question you
can't be alive what is it all I need to
know what's happening I don't mean know
with my my physical brain but experience
what what's the
Yeah.
Huh.
[Music]
Projections from God.
Of course,
what's the difference? There's a
tremendous disparity. I could live my
entire life based on projections of
others, expectations of others, and I
don't even once pause or maybe I do, but
I maybe I don't know what to do about
it.
God also has expectations for us,
right? But I don't have to tell you that
religion and God are not always
connected. You should know that by now,
at least if you come to this class.
They're not always connected.
Unfortunately,
religion can be a trap like any other
trap and sometimes a very big one
because it sounds religious
because
we are actually trying to fit into
religious expectations.
Yeah. Religious expectations and
projections can be as
as big a trap as
as big a trap as any others but
sometimes a bigger one because they
speak in the name of God.
Yeah. Yeah. So it's it it could be very
hard.
So we come back now. But even to even in
the most beautiful and and and and and
and
idealistic scenario,
you're coming back to where you were.
Thank you.
Maybe you're a few miles ahead of the
game. Okay. So the whole m began started
with this. So now when he goes in civ
basin, everything we spoke about here is
malik.
But now there's something else and the
whole
is all talking
the world of and you don't have a good
answer for this
any
so the only way to have a real answer
for this is by stepping away from a
malik. So what is now saying here in
this is that every a person could learn
their entire life.
We're talking
but essentially they're touching
and important to emphasize not in a
judgmental way but to understand that
the whole of
even on its highest levels
you're talking the highest the word is
helm is concealment which is what malic
is because that's what makes it mali
mali means I fill you and to fill you,
you need to be you. And I need to make
sure that you're you. And if if you're
not going to be you, it's not mal. I'm
not filling you. I'm overwhelming you.
I'm obliterating you. Which fine, but
it's not you. Mali means it's about you,
not about me. That's what the word mamal
means. Mali means I fill you. Meaning
it's about your capacity. It's
integrated. That's what we always say.
It's integrated. Integration means it
suits who you are. That means it's
defined by who you are. If it's defined,
it's concealed. That's there's no that's
what it means. Defined is defined equals
concealment. If it's defined, it's
concealed.
It's working within the parameters of a
helm in order for it to be able to
become the engine of this particular
chemistry of this particular chemistry
even the highest spiritual chemistry and
certainly the lowest spir physical the
lowest chemistry as he said you know
physical earth where it's a gisham
nifred mamish the divine energy has to
go through such crazy insane infinite
filters that whatever it's vivifying
looks at you and says there's no god I
was I am I will be I'm here for myself
and there's nothing else. You're not
there's no no part of anything greater
and that's also God
because that offer that grain of sand is
also nephesh it's also it's also it's
all part of that but the am here is in a
way that it's completely concealed
right when a person is emotionally
depressed as we said there's a
disalignment between the gof and the
nephesh that goof that is depressed and
experiencing that's also the nama
Because every feeling is a nishama. But
what it's getting from the nishama is
just I'm worthless. Life is nothing.
That's what it's getting. It's also a
frequency. It's a very low frequency,
but it's a frequency. Depression is an
experience. It's not a fun experience,
but it's an experience. It's the soul
experience. It's the body experiencing
something. It's just the lowest lowest
frequency, you know, together with guilt
and shame and the lower frequencies.
They're called the gravitational
frequencies. The gravity that pulls them
down.
the higher higher frequencies, love,
surrender, faith,
trust. There's less gravity there, but
but you have to like you have to go into
a spaceship. You have to get out of the
you know the gravity doesn't pull down
so much. So it's not so easy. The
frequency of guilt, shame, depression,
sadness, hate, jealousy, negative
competition, all that. Those are much
easier fre they're available everywhere.
It's like the eight sadas. It's
available.
It's like termites. It's available
everywhere. Parasites, there fungi. It's
available. The higher frequencies are
not so available. You have to like go
high. You have to climb trees, you know.
It's not so simple cuz these are all
pulled down. So, wherever you are, you
can, oh, I'm jealous. Yeah, I hate you.
I'm an I'm anxious. I'm angry. These are
all but they're all frequencies. They're
all malic they're just very very it's so
concealed. The energy is concealed to
the point that there's no energy, so to
speak. The energy is expressed in the
fact that there's no I have no energy.
I'm not interested. Lazy. I'm lazy. I'm
dumb. I'm depressed. I'm It's a very low
low frequency of energy, but it's an
energy.
It's not an energy you want to choose to
live in, but it's certainly an energy.
Yeah. Yeah.
So tragedy
when he first discovers something
something touches something that was
never expressed before
right
and suddenly he gets sucked into where
everybody expects
like this this like that this like this
so and then eventually he loses what
yeah that's why that's why
that's why every bouva
it's not only I don't know if I ever
said this but it's probably true. It's
not only from people who need to become
baluva. Balich chuva also have to become
balich chuva
eventually. Yes.
Bali chuva also have to become balich
chuva in a good way. The fact that
people have to become baluva. We know
that. But today balichu also have to be
baluv. It's takes a lot of courage to do
chuva. Chuva means to return to return
to what? To return to the space.
Pre-expectations and pre-projections.
That's the movement of cha
and it doesn't mean necessarily to move
tomorrow to India
and run away from the whole world. Yeah.
And rent a bike or buy a bike and go to
New Zealand and bike for 6 months and
tell all your friends that you
discovered your soul and you're done.
Maybe for some people it means that. I
don't know. But that may not help at
all.
It's just another distraction away from
yourself,
right? It's about the self. It's not
where I am. You know, sometimes location
is important, of course, but it's really
who I am. What's happening inside
the fish, it could be anywhere in the
water, but just keep me in the water.
You take me out, you take me to an
interesting place, it could be as death,
as deathly as anything else. So once we
explained that the whole tisa
could be could be about mamala kalman
and the person never leaves mala kalman
it's extremely important
because there's a lot of people kabala
there's people into cababala a lot of
kabala this one that one might not
sometimes it's this way that way more
clarity less clarity but that's what
he's saying that the whole
it's all That's malikal.
But now it's important to go from a
malikal to the next st the next thing
and he's going to talk about from here
you're also going to come back to the
first question.
What happens to the soul? Why would the
soul want to and agree and why would God
want it to leave a lofty space where it
really can't get any better? It's not
like it's missing. It's not missing
anything. just to go away and ultimately
to come back
and mit the framework of a malikam you
don't have an answer to that
when I say an answer I don't mean a
mathematical intellectual answer I mean
you have no response to it there's no
there's no reaction to there's no real
response to it
but once you can go out of the whole
system that cabala articulated so
beautifully whichever puts into the
genre into the spectrum of Malikal
a new reality opens up and the reality
that opens up you don't see in cabala
so much I mean everything is in cabala
because it's part of titus everything is
there but emphasized we're talking here
emphasized
and that's the element of the
physicality
where suddenly only the physical world
which is the most dark place that we've
just lambasted and and denigrated that
there's nothing here and you don't see
anything that suddenly becomes the
purpose for which the soul was ready to
go through this crazy rupture just to
get to this place in the framework of a
malikal that does not make sense all you
could say is on the contrary be
sensitive to the fact that on earth you
feel nothing and know that and that
itself is powerful
And therefore you strive to heaven and
therefore kabala ultimately is you're
going for another madrega another
madrega another sphere a higher world a
higher a higher and it's not a small
thing it's not a small thing to
cultivate consciousness and expansive
consciousness
[Music]
but the ultimate answer to the soul
leaving
just to come back which seems senseless
and even cruel and so challenging and
difficult only comes from a completely
different framework which is not really
a framework. That's going to be the
point and that it wants to go to this
place where the nephesh is concealed
more than anywhere else where the
reaches the ultimate helm like you said
the like we see in our world and not
even in the world of the planets which
is also a place of darkness. The world
of the planets is not it's not it's not
it's a physical world. And with a
spaceship today, you can even get pretty
far.
But when we're talking about this world,
the soul doesn't go into the world of
the planets. It goes in here.
Here where the invisibility of the
spiritual consciousness reaches its
ultimate peak and crescendo
and that becomes the tased in the soul
says this, this is what I need.
And it's in that process that it's
extricated from the world of mamal.
And this is where this is this is where
this is where
this is the gileus.
So we have here this mimer it's really
in every mimer but if you contextualize
it it opens up o vista to the entire
revelation of
and you see those who learn kal of kabal
if they're sensitive are learning and
learning
malman is pretty infinite I I don't when
we say you're talking about from the
highest to the lowest made
the quantum leap of is not it speaks a
lot about of course it does
and only there and therefore it has an
emphasis on the physical world that
kabala you won't have on the contrary in
kabala you denigrate the physical not
real you don't denigrate the physical
world the physical world is part of the
but the emphasis
and the ability to be able to be to
appreciate the darkness of this world
not just as a and not just as a
challenge and not just as an obstacle
not just as a barrier
But actually as a talas
in a way deeper than all of the highest
worlds and not just in a way but truly
that can only come from something that's
outside of
it doesn't work that way. You have to
call a spade a spade. Darkness is
darkness and you're not going to compare
to and the best you could say is go to
masia but come back to and then the
question was I was at
I was fishing. I had a beautiful life. I
don't need to go to Harvard,
[Music]
become an anti-semite, make millions of
dollars. I could do chuva and then do
meditation for 10 hours in India. I'm
doing it. I'm good.
But if you learn that in there's
something that doesn't have ah of course
I want to go to
that you don't that you don't have so
much in Kabala. Again you have
everything really in cababala because
it's so everything is connected when
it's em everything is everywhere but I'm
saying in an emphasized uh structured
fashion so the already teaches this
really systemized it so to speak because
the bump was more like he threw out the
sparks you know he threw the atomic
energy but al systemized it
the system of it so that it could be and
that itself he wanted so it should be
able to be integrated yet
this is a hagda I'm not explaining
anything he said yet like what's this
thing outside of a malam
right and what have to do with this
world and weird suddenly does it all
make sense but this is the introduction
to understand when you're learning this
mime it's not some another idea another
idea oh this is now let's go it's it's
appreciated there's a there's a very
serious serious evolution happening here
in terms of
in terms of and in terms of
and in terms of of course of how it's
integrated in a person's life
and as a result of that
a person understands something that's
very very deep and that is and this is
what he brings out in this mment at the
end of civ bay
at the end of civ bay in a very very
emotionally dramatic way
that ultimately
such a big focus on Yiddish kite and a
beautiful focus especially for people
who learn kabala on his slavos
experience ecstasy spirituality
and that's what people strive for a lot
of people that come here strive for this
you want a little love you want a little
awe yeah you want to feel something
I don't want to be bogged down by life.
I want to be uplifted by life.
How do I do that? I don't feel anything.
I'm dead. My religion is dead. My
Yiddish kite is dead. My taid is
lifeless. My mitzvah are lifeless. I'm
not even interested. Some people have
the days they don't I'm not in the mood.
I don't do it. I'm only doing it for my
kids, maybe. Whatever it is,
and it catches up to you. It's called a
midlife crisis. And people respond in
different ways. Some people start going
to the kiddish club on Shabas. They got
a drunk shop this afternoon and some
people respond in healthier ways
delay, right? Some people buy more toys
to distract themselves and some people
say maybe it's time to look for a
different type of toy.
But all of this is assuming that the
tlas is finding some very deep spiritual
connection. And it's very true and it is
a major taklas and it's critical.
But ultimately that doesn't answer the
question. Let's say let's say
you can have a sh let's say this shia
could go for 10 hours every day. It
could by the way
you're saying halavai. He's like oh no
this is long enough. Like
my wife asked me who are the people that
have no job that sit with you for two
hours. Who are these people? And why
don't they get a job? What am I supposed
to answer? telling that I'm the
fisherman.
You're the fisherman in India. You
already you already had a job. You made
money. You're done. You're in India.
Please tell your wife that in order for
us to have to wake up at 5 hours before
Okay.
It's not a mus to you. It's a musa to me
that I go for so long. My wife says,
"What are you talking for so long?"
People have a life outside of your
class. They have a life. Recognize that.
But let Nobody forces anyone to sit
there.
I hear you. I hear you. Nobody's forced
to sit there. Okay, Bar.
I don't want to fall asleep in the
middle of the action.
Why am I talking about my the length of
the Shia? Ah, even a person you could
sit taka 10 hours in Ganeden. It still
doesn't answer the question. The shear
of the soul before coming down with all
due respect to Rabbi Wa was better.
In fact, it didn't have to have a
shield. It was it was there. You don't
have to talk about embodiment and yes,
embodiment and nervous system and get it
into your system and feel it. Didn't
have all these issues.
It was less humorous though.
Huh. That's true.
That's true. That's true.
That's true. Very good. It was less
humorous. In fact in in fact in one of
my says that the first Jew is called the
first Jew born as a Jew is called
because what happens down here is the of
humor laughter. Very good. Looks good.
Parish has told us told us both
everything is about the laughter because
humor always comes from contrast,
right? When something is in flow, it's
beautiful but it's not humorous.
You know, you look at the river flowing,
it's a beautiful experience, but it's
not humorous.
Right? When you look at the salmon
fighting the flow, you're like,
"Wow." It like it opens something new.
Why? You're fighting the flow. Like
that's the kesh. Every good joke is
basically going against the flow, right?
People are expecting a punchline and
you're like boom, the curveball. What is
that? It's not the flow.
You said that beautifully. Humor is
created by the interruption of flow.
When you know how to exploit the
interruption and deviate from it and yet
use it
as a source of a new awareness because
you can also not use it and just get out
of flow and then it's just you know the
joke plots as it flops.
You understand? Going out of flow is
dangerous if you know how to take the
curveball and manipulate it and use it
for your advantage. Like the real
athletes, they can take a curveball and
then they use it against you
[Music]
first.
So that's really what happens. The soul
learns how to take the darkness of the
world. This darkness,
dark humor. Very good. Very good.
Take darkness and turn it into humor. It
takes the darkness of the world and
shows and transforms it and reveals
something in it which it could never
have had before. It had everything
before. We know it had everything. It
was amazing.
And that can't be from the framework of
Malikal. And that's why Kabala as far
and amazing as it was outside of Nigla
deeper deeper deeper
ultimately it remains infatuated by
But the real the real redemptive quality
of is that the places where you're
confronting your darkness are not just
oh so valuable and there's some form of
being tested but that really is where
the only uniqueness that makes all of
life worth that happens. So it redeems
that entire aspect of life that we're
all dealing with. Of course, you could
sit at a let's say you could sit at a sh
for 15 hours a day and being unadened,
but that's not where that's not where
it's happening. With all due respect to
the Shia,
you need it. We all need we need the
psyche education. You need the you you
you need the you need the you need you
need you need the foundation, of course.
But where it's really really happening
is in those moments where I'm
confronting that which completely
eclipses everything that I know and a
deep down to be true.
Now the question is why? Like you just
made a beautiful theory. Fine, nice.
It's like almost looks like a cliche. So
now we'll redeem the darkness and
everything is good. But this is anything
but a cliche. This comes to this is this
is the DNA of the secret of existence.
This is it.
So that's the whole
heal
but it's it's it's revealing a certain
frequency of elus which is incredible.
I'm talking about we're talking about
we're not we're talking about I'm
talking about real cabal
few babas you know selling kameas
yeah it's very very it's it's
transcendent it's pure transcendence
really kabala came to pop the bubble to
burst the bubble on the helm on the of
the world like you know if you study
kabala
there's a system there's everything is
part of a bigger picture and even in
people right would look at somebody and
he would say a was a gilgle of this one
in other words it's the idea that the
soul there's a soul in everything that's
kabala there's a soul in everything
and that soul also has a soul
so the soul of one level relative to a
higher level is a body what is a soul in
this world becomes a body in a higher
world and what is its soul is a body in
the higher world like we said of Allah
right the of a higher world becomes the
of this world so the of this world which
is a soul in the higher world it's only
a goof and its soul is that but then
that goes to a higher world that becomes
a goof and that's really much of cabala
and it's very exciting it's extremely
exciting and those who internalize
kabala the real makabalam lived there
they lived in higher frequencies they
really
And it's something that was forgotten
from so much of jury because of whatever
reason.
So there's a huge thirst to bring it
back.
But there's a very very critical
component and that is where does all the
darkness come in. So yes, if you can
cultivate expansive consciousness, got
it. But the real healing is when
everything comes together. everything
real fusion, real integration. All the
pieces are part of it.
And that's that's you right away know
it's a different frequency. It's a it's
a much deeper frequency. You have to go
to a place that's deeper than light if
you want to redeem the darkness. You
heard what I just said.
You have to go to a place that's deeper
than light in order to redeem the
darkness. If I stay in light, it's
amazing. Stay there as much as you can.
But that can't redeem the darkness
because light is light and darkness is
the opposite of light. You must go
higher than light to redeem the
darkness.
Huh?
Yeah. It's it's a place that's higher
than the frequency of light which in the
language of the alterb is
the light but that very light is
concealed and that's what makes it
effective. If there wouldn't be
concealed there wouldn't be light. Light
has to be light is about effectiveness.
If light is not effective, what what the
point of light is effectivity?
I don't know if I just made up a word.
The point of light is functionality.
It's utilitarian. I should be able to
see things. That's what light is,
right?
Communicate. Exactly. If you're
communicating and nobody understands
what you're saying, so just keep it to
yourself. The point of communic
communicia
in Hebrew communication is
communication. Community the word
community means you want to create
community which is communication which
means connection
and for that you need to connect and if
you're not connecting so stop
communicating
right just be quiet and then and keep it
keep it for yourself.
Communication is mamal that's effective
communication
so what's beyond communication is
actually ability to disco
so kabala focuses on
here also focuses but as he finishes
basin he says all this is mal
and he's going to but there's going to
be a but there's always a But a but and
because of that
deeper reality so to speak if we could
use that word because even the word
deeper reality is a mamal kalman term so
that's why I don't like that word here
but it's the best I can come up with at
the moment
absolutely
because you're not going to be dealing
with a deeper reality we're going to be
dealing with ultimate reality right
which also is not a good word but
whatever you got the problem there
because of that you can also go to a new
step and that is the redemption of
darkness the idea that in the
physicality in the lack of dus
find something that it couldn't find so
when you ask somebody what's the purpose
of yishkite so usually the more
spiritually oriented will say and we
always say that dvas connection yeah
connection attachment
and it's true but there's a big question
because it was much better vague as
before. We were attached. It's not like
we if we weren't attached the purpose is
attachment. We were attached and we were
attached perfectly attached. Couldn't be
more attached. And there's nothing
better than that attachment. You can't
give me anything. No chocolate in the
world, even Swissling chocolate without
sugar
won't cut it.
So what what exactly is this new
attention? You had all the attachment in
the world. That was the before.
So what we're going to learn in the M is
no actually the purpose is not vus.
The moments when you don't have veus are
as purposeful as the moments you have
the veus. Of course vas gives it the
luster and the beauty and the gishmach
and one must have vas. That's where the
whole davening is. But if that's the
beginning and the end of it, it was much
much better before because even if you
have the vas here, it's going to be
interrupted. It's going to be filled
with struggle. It's never going to be as
powerful and as clear as he said, it'll
be more humorous. Funny. But that's
exactly the point. It's humorous because
it's new because it's weird. Funny
things are weird. Not things that are
not weird are not funny. It's weird.
Vacus is weird. Yeah.
So, we're going to learn the purpose is
not vus.
Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. Designed for purposes,
right?
But not the source of
right is like light.
Answer this question.
That's usually
already before the reason.
No, no, no.
It's not wrong. Huh?
Yeah.
Is a beautiful answer in a answer. When
you when you own something, when you
earn it, it's much better. I'm not just
attached because you made me attached.
You actually sent me away and I forced
my way back in so to speak in a good
way. I own it.
So that answer the question.
The question is not
you own the attachment.
Right. But
attached.
But ultimately you can ask a deeper
question right this idea that if I don't
own it it's not full attachment
was taught to me
right when the nam is in that space of
attachment it's not missing anything
it's not like the nam is feeling
horrible before it's born it's like you
know I'm like maj from the
I don't own anything and like I'm this
mish this homeless is beggar and like
that's what feels
Hashem gave it this feeling of is part
of what God did
because a separate entity
right but
then could have stayed there with full
and full
with self-consciousness
yes
or he would have been part of
a separate conscious double
warm.
So,
right. So, you need a a deeper you need
to go into a deeper space.
You just made me and you giving me like
what's the relationship? I'm
embarrassed.
Right. Right.
question.
You could have had the tea. Not to be
embarrassed.
This goof is a creation, right?
We could have had a nature that you get
everything. In fact, there's some people
I know like that.
is the people that give the money.
Yeah. They scream at you. They make you
feel guilty. Do gland, right? They say
there was a guy in Bur Park. He was
collecting money. So somebody walks by
with a suitcase dressed
and stuck. It's stuck. Guy says, "I
don't have what you don't have. I need
seduck." He said, "I don't have." He
says, "Go work.
I I work hard. You work hard.
They said there was a mish he called
Rothschild at 4 in the morning.
Emergency. He wakes him up. What's the
emergency? I need stuck. He says 4 in
the morning. You had to wake me up. He
said, "I don't tell you how to run your
business. Don't tell me how to run my
business. I do things 4 in the morning."
My point is, I don't mean to make all
these jokes. My point is that itself is
a nature that we understand today. We
all understand it. But that itself is a
is is is
a bria.
You're right.
You're right. And that's why with
intellect.
It's very limited because every Y needs
another Y. And when you get to the first
Y, it's like aoy. So you could have said
that in the beginning. You're right.
And even by the way in the world of of
science and physics and mathematics
they'll there's a concept that calls in
musculus
muscalis means the paradigms of
rationality
that you have to accept by uh by faith
so to speak
they call it a laws
of nature
laws of nature like ultimately
if if you're going to keep on asking why
they're going to all scholarship will
seize
They're like, "Yeah, you could do that,
but if you want to accept this as a
paradigm, I could build on it. If not,
okay."
And and and and it's not a bad it's just
a truth of life. And there's a reason
for that because Seel is a nra. So if is
a nra, which is aish in other words,
there were those in the world of
philosophy who didn't think was a nra.
The Maharal accuses the Rambam
of thinking that Seahul is not a NiveRA
and he he goes out at the Rambam.
Alterba came to the defense of the
Rambam and said no the Rambam was just
always talking postsum.
That's it.
You have to put the Rambam in context.
You have to know who the Rambam was. The
morale gets very upset at theam because
theam calls
the moral says according to the they
should have called hashem
notes
that's what the moral writes in gurus
hashem but the truth is
that is a nra there were those who
thought is not a nra logic is not
created logic is is absolute it's logic
2 plus 2 equals 4 you have to create
tell How do you don't create that 2 plus
2 equals four pre-creation
tissues you have to create
mountains maybe you have to create or
for sure you have to create but uh but 2
plus 2 equals four a child is younger
than a father you could you have to
create that you know of a father who's
older than a child today's teenagers are
older than their fathers but
biologically let's put it that
chronologically
if the father was born tough his son
can't be born. Option in just doesn't
work that way, right? If you're a child,
you come after. If you it's how can you
argue with that? So if you can't argue
with that, you don't have to create it.
So they said is an absolute
and the said it's not created.
Right.
Right. Right.
Okay. We'll take a break here. Basham
will continue.
Thank you for listening. Thank you for
listening. I just have to make a call.
Give me a second.
