The Oiz Oiz, page lamid vov.
The Oiz Oiz says kulam al ha Torah, this
too
is the treasure that someone who toils
in Torah has.
A person
becomes holy through the light of Torah.
He is lifted higher
than a physical
like outlook, a physical grasp of life.
This is like the one of the highest
levels, the very end of the Mesillas
Yesharim. The ability to transform his
physical needs into spirituality.
Into ruchniyus, like his eating and
drinking become acts of ruchniyus.
This is
>> always say that.
>> What?
>> Like Mesillas
>> Who is him?
>> Yeah, but there's like there's there's
there's many there's many many many
madregas of it.
In other words, there's a madrega of
being involved in the physical
and using that for kedusha, and then
there's a madrega that's much much much
much higher where the physical is
actually kedusha. It's not hachana for
kedusha, it is kedusha, like putting a
animal on the mizbeach. Like I think I
think he'll bring, like pouring wine on
the mizbeach. It's like an actual act of
kedusha.
I'm so Mesillas Yesharim who says it out
of the Torah. The Mesillas Yesharim
explains the essence of a talmid chacham
in perek hakadosha, in the perek of
kedusha kishama kamai, because that's
where it belongs.
U'kedushas ha'Torah
norahi.
The power of the holiness of Torah is
awesome.
And Nefesh ha'Chaim mevaer the Nefesh
ha'Chaim explains ki kol ha'olamois
yeish lahem
begovei meromim.
Right, this is what I said over today
half is the way. Remember I spoke about
the Torah at the beginning of share?
Um
that all the worlds, all the different
ilomais cuz each our world is connected
to a higher world which is connected to
a higher world
almost, you know, without number until
the kisei hakavod.
All the worlds are connected up to
Hakadosh Baruch Hu
and mishtalshelim lema'ala lemata, but
as they come down world after world
after world, each world serves as the
pnimius of the world that comes after
it, like a neshama to a guf. And then
that guf is the neshama to the outer
guf, a little bit like those dolls, you
know? And then that guf becomes the
neshama to a to So that's how the worlds
go lower and lower and lower, more and
more and more megusham until the world
before us, so to speak, the world above
us are
its physical existence, the totality of
that world is the
is where the shefa from shamayim comes
from to en- to to to to um
to provide a connection to ruchniyus in
this world.
And that means that from the time
something leaves shamayim until it gets
here, it has gone down, down, down,
down, down until it's like this table.
It's a physical object, very removed
from being part of the shechina.
So kasha hein mishtalshelim as it comes
down like the chain shalsheles is a
chain mile ma'ala lemata from above to
below ad oilam ha'asiyah until the world
of asiyah
the physical world yoser vi yoser
mitstamtzem oirom ukedushasam. More and
more its light and kedusha becomes
narrowed.
Ad oilam hazeh until you come into this
world naseh chulin legamri. Most things
issue at all,
right? You go into the forest and
there's a tree. It's not a holy tree,
it's just a tree.
Even though everything comes from
everything should be holy. But has this
process where things that are
removed from him are not considered
or at least their is not revealed.
And
it's physical
and it's close to evil to it's able to
become
it's correct to that.
The
Torah is not that way.
Even
though the Torah itself also comes down
from world to world, the way the Torah
is in this world talking about
you know
someone gets married and didn't have
children that those of this world
concepts.
Man and woman don't get married in upper
worlds, right? Just this is where this
human beings this is where this that and
everything in the entire on food or or
or
all of that are things that are relevant
to this world. The Torah in higher
worlds is in a higher form.
And there's parallels but it's in a
higher form. So the Torah also is
it comes down
until
the point that
brought it down
from above to below
into that.
He's quoting the poem. Even though the
Torah also
it went down like you know like a chain
it went down and down from
from its root from its source in
by
holiness my trigger is
an unlimited amount of levels from one
world to the next to me my trigger
in all
with all this could you
have a
come my show bemekor sharasha reishis
darka bakodesh. It is the the the the
kedusha of the Torah remains in this
world exactly the way it was in
shamayim.
It doesn't come down in in in madregas
at all.
It's almost It's almost It's almost hard
to imagine. It means the Torah that we
learn is the Torah as if we It's like
the Torah that's learned by the Kisei
Hakavod.
Even though if we heard the Torah being
learned by the Kisei Hakavod we wouldn't
understand a word of it. Because the
level of kedusha is beyond and we
probably would die from hearing it.
But when we learn that's the level of
the kedusha. Kedushasa Harishona kemai
shehi bemekor sharasha reishis darka
bakodesh kedakoi koi it remains gam
b'zeh oilam even in this world shakula
kodesh which is completely It's
completely kodesh but asur leneg bameni
chol has v'shalom and you cannot treat
it with any amount of chol
at all. This is the unbelievable segula
of Torah that's like it's the It remains
on the highest highest highest highest
highest highest madrega no matter what.
Today in shiur I said over that the
pshat in the medrash that the medrash
says on Vayikru Li Terumah so Chazal say
without getting into all the pesukim
involved but Chazal say that it's a
moshel to a melech who marries off his
daughter but he tells his new son-in-law
I can't separate from my daughter.
So build me a house and that's the
Mishkan that wherever you go I will come
along.
It's not some acute statement as people
think, you know, that Hashem wants to be
close. That's not what it is. It's this.
It's saying that the Torah I can't
separate from. The Torah is always on
the madrega being right by Hakadosh
Baruch Hu. That's the That's the That's
the madrega of Torah.
Hareini Hakadosh Baruch Hu hoyrid es
Toraso. Now the mashgiach at least tries
to explain it a little bit. Hakadosh
Baruch Hu brought the Torah down
letayach hamusagim v'hatziurim
ha'enoshiyim shelanu
the
human
ideas like I explained earlier, human
ideas and images, right? The Torah
speaks about things that we recognize in
this world. Right, the Torah doesn't
talk to us about things that are in the
other other worlds. The Torah speaks to
us about what's here. You know, you have
going to drink water, you make a shakal.
You It's comes sukkas time, take
branches and make a sukka. So, always it
talks about things that are here.
Right,
there's very very very has the concepts.
All the Mishnahs, all the Mishnahs of
the Torah,
but in the
Kedusha of the Torah,
but in the Kedusha of the Torah,
Tzimtzum, no narrowness has taken place.
Just as it is written
in black fire on top of white fire. The
highest highest levels of Kedusha. Our
Torah is the same. Therefore,
the person that learns it is
with a tremendously high Kedusha. He
becomes uplifted even
above his physical Torah has the
capacity to connect us to something much
much much higher than ourselves and it
makes us look at the whole world from an
uplifted an uplifted vantage point.
In a few
few words. Expresses
this
in one of his letters.
He says the main treasure of the Torah
the main treasure of the Torah brings a
person
to a very high level. The
to
recognize his his obligation in this
world.
And it's how you day I may shall take it
comes from the hard work of Torah.
The
other mice have been you say. The more a
person adds to his toil and not take
with the heavenly
the ropes of the become
detached. And my beta
have a volume and he rejects foolish
pleasures. The
mistake is in his heart yearns the rich
shake
the feelings of Russia. The heart of the
pleasure of the heart.
The message
of the life and the sweetness of the
purity of heart the heart of the life of
the heart of the heart of the heart.
That Adam is not merely flesh and blood
but Adam is a heart of the heart of the
heart of the heart.
You find this by
tell me the heart of the heart of the
heart of the heart.
You just could see the difference, you
know, you sitting by a by a table by a
dish by
you know, I assume that they tell me the
heart of the heart of the heart of the
as the other people around the table
doesn't distract them as much. They're
able to stay in a higher place. They're
they're not as um
you know, we have a certain tremendous
tremendous childish part of ourselves
when it comes to our our our desires and
even comes down in childish ways, you
know, you know, who ate the last piece
of cake and and
and you know, and it's just like I have
the type of food or or whatever it is.
And
you look at the heart of the heart of
the heart of the heart of the heart of
the heart of They're not so they're
they're okay.
They're okay. Yeah, I'm a little hungry.
What can I bring you to eat? Whatever
you whatever you find. It's not an act.
They're the heart of the heart.
And that comes from their connection to
Torah which lifts them up from this
world. They're not as not as desperate
pulled to this world. It's not so
desperate.
And that's a tremendous tremendous
aliyah for them.
I guess every time that we toil in Torah
is it before Shavuos, right? Every time
that we toil in Torah, we get a little
bit of a taste of it and if somebody has
worked on a sugi for a few hours,
you feel it a little bit. A little bit
like what does the world have to offer
me?
The world has nothing to offer me. This
is where it is. This is everything. This
is what energizes us.
That's the that's the segulah the
segulah of
the clarity of Torah and the segulah of
Torah and it's the reason why people
that toil so much in Torah and they work
so hard with such masirus nefesh. Why
aren't we jealous of them?
They're the happiest people in the
world.
Because one of the things that cause
distress and pain in this world is when
all of our desires are pulling at us.
And when a person could step away from
it and just engage in a world of
ruchniyus,
isn't that the most desirable thing
living like you know, just like above
it? Like the words that he uses in the
beginning,
may al t'fisa hamigushames shel achaim.
Above a physicalized,
excuse the
made up words, above the a physicalized
grasp of the world. I just don't look at
the world that way anymore. I see the
world in a different light.
And that's the unbelievable segulah of
Torah.
K'ga Hashem Yisborach should be uh
should be mezakeh us.
