being and the world."
Okay, so chapter five. Tomorrow morning

shiur
tomorrow b'ezras Hashem.
Uh breakfast not included tomorrow.
So cuz I want to finish the mind before
putting putting night by this after the
suit is going to be a big for bringing
in Pomona.
Um uh
Tuesday night Tuesday night, I'll just
tell you where it is.
Five Valley View Court. Five Valley View
Court. Starting 9:00 p.m.
For men and women and children.
It's a big house over there. Minkowitz,
five
Valley View Court.
That's Purim in the evening 9:00 Tuesday
night 9:00 o'clock by Azriel Shammai
baruch.
So,
last year we discussed
the idea of
Pishke the Khashoggi Rashi Shamash open
up
open up even the point of a needle
Khadija Mahat
the hole that's created by the point of
a needle.
Open up for me because I want to be with
you.
And the first term that's used is you're
my sister.
And the never explained that that's the
beginning of the of integration knowing
that there's an inherent embedded
connection just like a brother and a
sister which could never be obliterated.
You didn't choose it. You didn't create
it. It's family, so it's always there.
And even if it's a more placid love and
it's no way not always
um
Yeah, it's not always vibrant or
electrifying but it's it's consistent.
It's there. It's embedded. It's called
family.
It's natural.
And this is the love that every single
Jew has already from Avraham Avinu
family Khadija Avraham.
A Khashoggi also means connection fusion
fusion equal is a knot.
So, the measure says Avraham Avinu was
called my sister because he's the one
who begins to fuse the world with Hashem
and explained at length that Avraham
Avinu revealed
the truth of Hashem Hashem not
but Elam.
Not that Hashem is the God of the world
but that the truth reality true reality
of the world is godliness and explained
it at length.
Because the world is the the world is
essentially the divar Hashem, the
energy, the words of Hashem and even
deeper the desire of Hashem.
And this can be explained
even to the animal soul. That was our
main focus, how we communicate with the
animal soul that even the animal soul is
also looking
for
fulfillment. It's looking for existence.
It's looking for identity. It's looking
for attachment. It wants to be.
Every animal it wants to be.
And when you can explain the animal in a
way that it energetically understands
that it's the true reality
of itself and of the world is Elokus
as explained at length. So then this is
something that can be communicated even
to the animal consciousness.
That the animal consciousness wants this
connection. It wants this attachment.
As he put it in the last words
because
it deep down it wants to see itself one
with Hashem.
Because the animal soul can understand
that that is ultimately the true
reality. As he said the last words
there's only Mitzias Elokus El Shazel
Kufisha Elokus Elamata.
It's the way Elokus is Elamata. We'll
see what that means cuz that's the key.
Ruach Habehema Yereda She Elamata. She's
looking for Mata. She's looking for
Earth. She's looking for existence and
this is the real meaning of existence.
That of attaching myself and looking for
external shallow superficial realities
that are not even real. Deep down she
wants real attachment. She wants real
existence. As an animal she may need
focus. She may need direction. Not she
may, she for sure needs. She needs that
mentorship. But this is a conversation
with the animal soul.
Now he goes to the next level.
After Achasi you come to something
deeper called Rayasi.
The word Rayasi is an interesting word.
What does I Yossi mean?
The word I Yossi comes from the word
usually people translate it my wife, my
spouse.
But really the word I Yossi comes from
the word Raya. Raya it's a shepherd.
I Yossi really means my shepherd.
Which is a very interesting thing. I
understand Hashem calls me his sister.
You're my sister. That's itself a very
interesting term.
What's I Yossi? You're my Raya.
What is this?
For Indian bazaar and the truth is
a marriage they often called I Yossi
also from the word friendship Raya us
like the after come like over over
Shalom Raya us friendship right?
So that's another concept. Also I Yossi
is friends shepherd each other. They
they help each other like a shepherd.
Right so it's not sound disconnected. A
shepherd nurtures the flock.
That's what a shepherd is. So I Yossi
when you say good friends
they sustain each other. They help each
other. They nurture each other. They
feed each other. They're there for each
other. So the two may be connected.
What's the idea here I Yossi and how
does it come after I Yossi?
This is a measure
is a fascinating measure in I should
have
The measure says I Yossi partner system.
And this is in measure itself.
And the person in I should have in the
beginning it says I Yossi pirate the
music I Yossi.
Hashem says or the husband there the
groom says you seem to me I Yossi you
seem to me like one of the horses in the
chariots of pirate which you have to
know what that means exactly why he
compares.
Literally it's the the pirate's horses
were like unbelievably groomed and
beautiful and and athletic and powerful
and so he says the music I Yossi I I
look at you I Yossi as one of those
horses.
Huh?
In in in in the title of this week
there's a minor on this week we spoke we
spoke about it in Shabbos. The The Zohar
says there were female horses and male
horses. The whole thing with a horse is
But the Medrash over there says,
"Rayosi, what's Rayosi?" So, the Ben Ish
Chai says, "Hashem is calling the Jewish
people Parnososi."
From the word Parnosa, when you mefarne
somebody, you sustain them. You feed
them. You give somebody Parnosa, it can
mean money, it can mean food, it can
mean courage, it can mean motivation, it
can mean inspiration. So, the Medrash
says that Hashem is saying about the
Jewish people, "Parnososi, you are the
ones who give me Parnosa."
Ad kedei kach.
Which is a fascinating Medrash. This is
not a bizarre Hasidic, you know,
it's a Torah somewhere in a Vatican.
It's a safe It's a Medrash Rabba by Ben
Ish Chai.
Ben Ish Chai, one of the Tana'im. He
says that Rayosi means Parnososi. Hashem
says, "You give me Parnosa. You shepherd
me like like a flock, like a sheep looks
at the shepherd and says, 'You give me
Parnosa.'" Without the shepherd takes me
to a place to get water, it takes to a
place with good grass. That's what a
good shepherd is. A shepherd is in The
first responsibility of a shepherd is to
protect and nurture the flock.
So, Hashem says, "You are that for me."
And he even continues. He says, "You
shepherd me every single day with two
sheep, a sheep in the morning, a sheep
in the afternoon." Es keves echad
ba'boker. Like it says in It says in
Chumash, "Lachmi."
Tzav es Bnei Yisrael v'amarta aleihem in
Parshas Pinchas. V'amarta aleihem we say
it in the morning. V'amarta aleihem is
carboni. Lachmi, it's my bread. Le'isha,
this is my bread.
These sheep. So, he says, "This is
You're my shepherd. You You're the ones
who give me these sheep. You You give me
lamb chops in the morning and lamb chops
in the afternoon."
But it's not probably literal. It means
probably Yeah, so what does this mean?
Food for thought.
Even food for thought. You say, "Give me
food for thought." Right? You're giving
me You're giving me something to think
about. You're giving me You're giving me
something to to sustain me.
In Zohar, he actually says these words,
"Yisrael mefarne simcha ba'yachad l'avim
sheba'shamayim."
Zohar Parshas Vayikra, the Zohar says
these words similar to the Medrash, that
the Jewish people are mefarne. They give
Parnosa, sustenance, to their father in
heaven.
This is all that union of rayasi.
Achoyse
is you're my sister, we are we're
essentially connected. Rayasi is
something deeper.
You're shepherding me, there's something
you're giving me, there's something
there's a food that you're giving me.
What does this mean?
For I know commercial in you know
parnossa showing you the hiluk
vishubadam.
The way the medrish understands parnossa
that it's clearly food. Not just
parnossa, I'm giving you a check.
He actually says you shepherd me with
the two sheep. Cuz that's really what
parnossa is. Parnossa he says somebody
gives parnossa
we call parnossa you have a job, but it
really means that you they should be
able to put food on the table, right?
That's the main the main staple. Food,
the protection, a house, clothes,
whatever the the the the the matter with
the things the items we need to live. So
he says, "What is the union of a
parnossa by a person? It's a union of
achila."
Right? You feed it. So what happens? She
may chabed a nefesh she may chof.
What does food actually do?
It fuses the soul with the body.
Simply, it it replenishes the cells, it
gives a person energy.
Right? If a person chashve shalom does
not eat
so the soul has no mechanism there's no
mechanism of the consciousness to be
present in the body.
She had a nefesh metzaz atzmi tachlis
aluchnis.
To go a little deeper. The soul on its
own is tachlis aluchnis. Tachlis
aluchnis means it's this it's this it's
the peak, it's the core of ruchnius, of
transcendent energy, of spirituality.
Vilu haguf inyan ageshem vachoymer.
The body is is is physical, it's made up
of matter. Geshem is physical matter,
choymer, with all the laws that govern
the body. Veaychi achivro sheveynay.
What creates the fusion between them,
the connection between them?
Ela inyanim anasa deachilu usiya
shenikra'im baklalis beshem parnossa.
This is the achievement that happens
when a person eats and a person drinks.
Yeah? You say "As may mechaya given when
me life." Without that, life cannot
continue after a while.
This is what's called parnossa.
So, parnossa, it doesn't create the
soul.
The soul is present. But the fusion
between the soul and the body, that the
soul should be able to live in the body,
that's what parnossa is. That's what the
food does. That's what a hidur se'ah
does. So, he says, "That's p'shat when
Hashem says, 'Parnossasi Yosi,
Parnossasi.' You give me parnossa, you
create the fusion, just like by a
person. When I feed somebody, or I feed
myself, I'm creating the fusion between
the soul, which is existent, but that it
should be able to live and be embodied,
pun intended, live in the body, in the
guf. So, Hashem says, 'That's what
you're doing for me. Yosi, you're the
ones who are giving me parnossa.'"
That's the p'shat in the Zohar, you saw
in the finest in love of Hashem. What
does this mean?
K'maykin yuvla l'ma'ala, so exactly the
metaphor of a person. It's always we use
a person in sorry exa, not to make you
understand how it is in the ultimate
reality. D'hinay amru Chazal, Chazal
say, this is a Medrash to Tehillim, and
it's also in Gemara, the Gemara says in
the opposite way, but it's also in
Gemara in Brachos daf yud, he brings in
63.
That the Dovid HaMelech says, "Halleli
Nafshi es Hashem." That Hashem is like
with the soul. Just like the soul fills
the body, fills doesn't only mean that
physically like water fills the cup,
fills means that the soul saturates, the
soul infuses the body with life, with it
vivifies it, it animates it, it gives it
consciousness.
So, the same is true, the universe also
has a soul.
What we call the soul for the body, that
is the divine for the universe. Hakadosh
Baruchu m'maleh es ha'olam.
In Gemara in Brachos, the opposite
version, "Mah haneshama m'maleh es
ha'olam, af Hakadosh Baruchu m'maleh es
haguf." That's why in 63 he says Medrash
Tehillim or the A Brachos, cuz Medrash
Tehillim it's exactly this version. And
in Gemara Brachos, it's the opposite
that way.
But this is this is what Chazal are
saying. So,
in in in Medrash Tehillim, it says just
like the soul fills the body God fills
the world in Gamara Brochos the students
is just like God fills the world the
soul fills the body.
So just to be accurate with the quote
this quote is from Madras to Helen.
But he says here a Brochos because over
there it's very similar. That's it I'm
just explaining the
>> [snorts]
>> We see it was extremely madalic on
sources that should be very accurate
everything. He was
extremely meticulous about it. The quote
is a quote if it's not exactly
So that's why I'm just mentioning it for
those who are you know
interested by this. But what does this
mean? What does this mean? So he's
basically saying the soul is a microcosm
for the divine. Right? You have the
micro and the macro. So what is true in
the miniature universe the soul in the
body that is the divine in the world. So
with food and drinks is what brings the
soul into the body. In other words the
soul can be present in the body if not
the body simply doesn't have the
mechanism to house the soul anymore
which is death weakness and then
ultimately death. Khash v'shalom.
So parnossa for the cosmic soul is
similar to that. So when Hashem says you
feed me it actually means you allow the
soul of the universe to be present in
the universe.
The soul could be present not in it's
own the soul will exist without the
body. The soul doesn't die as a result
of the body dying. Yeah, just like when
you unplug a refrigerator
like
electricity doesn't die electrons don't
die. But the free refrigerator can't
channel the electricity anymore. The
electricity is fine.
You unplug the refrigerator or the
computer or the or the air conditioner
or whatever is attached the the
electrons are not going to die and be
destroyed. Electricity doesn't die.
But it won't be facilitated it won't be
channeled in through this computer
through this refrigerator. Which means
the food literally is going to
become moldy.
It's going to expire.
So, the plug doesn't create electricity.
The plug channels the electricity into
the refrigerator.
When you say histalkus, death has to
That doesn't mean the the soul doesn't
die. No such thing as soul doesn't die.
There's no such a thing as soul dies,
ever.
doesn't die.
It's unplugged. That's what it means.
It's very sad because when we look at
the body, we don't see anything. We
don't have We don't have a relationship
with souls without bodies. We want the
container. I want to be able to kiss the
person and look at the person and
embrace the person and talk to the
person. We have We want the physical
contact.
So, a hilus see what it does is it
channels the soul that it should be in
the body. So, now what is the metaphor
in Medrash Yossi partner Sosi?
That the food you give me food, what's
it mean you give me food? God says you
feed me. You literally feed me.
The neshama to come into the guf.
So, what does this mean? So, he
explains.
Like we said by the neshama that what?
That it's tachlis oruchnius.
The soul is not defined by the body.
It's not like when the soul is not in
the body, the soul loses its identity.
No.
The soul is a soul.
It's a divine It's divine energy. It's
It's chelek elokah mimaal. In the body,
it's manifested also as a consciousness
for the body.
So, the same is true here. Behainu
Hashem itself is completely beyond
Shaloy berach meaning it can't even
compare. It's not even in the same
frequency of the whole seder
hishtalshelus. The whole order of
creation of all the worlds and all the
energies and all the spheres of called
seder hishtalshelus. The word shalsheles
completely beyond and all the worlds.
Okay, this is a bit of a
There's an expression of the Alter Rebbe
in Torah God and put in Megillas Esther.
This is the words. This is the line of
the Alter Rebbe. Lo zeh iker elokus
mashal el elumus mashavim emenu.
The of the course
that the world come from him.
When we say
we going to show them yeah.
It's all real words. This is
lies out
not that just that the word expression
of
Don't
that all the worlds come from. Of course
for us
it's the most impressive thing in the
world, you know. Look at the world.
We're here. Look at the universe. It's
incredible.
But if you think for a moment that this
is equal of the course you're you're
you're missing the point.
What equal of the course is ain't served
beyond what is expressed in any element
of the universe. It's true that the
whole universe comes from the course.
That's true.
Right.
Lies out equal of the course.
As much as you can't define just like
with the martial you give us a time you
can't define a person by a word by a
letter.
The tomorrow says I'm
So it's a hey and so you know it says
one thought is the source of the whole
world time and space and matter and it's
one thought.
So imagine
I grab on to one thought of you and that
becomes your whole definition. And that
thought required tremendous amount of
some some of them to be able to compress
it. So the thought is important and from
that thought comes everything.
Not in this not that defines the course.
So now when you say that the becomes on
a summer what's from the summer? He
fills the world.
So the word there is when you're
accessing a
lot of my life alone it means that
you're actually accessing Hashem in the
world.
I could just borrow a lot of my life
alone in words, that the world should be
able to experience Elokos Lemalah
Mishalshilos?
So, this is the Chiddush. The Chiddush
is that you're bringing down the Neshama
the way the Neshama is in its true in
its true essence, its true core, that
should be in the body.
So, it's deeper than you literally learn
that it's just a Chilah to be able to
have energy. In other words, it's not
just Hashem should be Memaleh Es Olam.
So, it's a relationship with Hashem
himself.
And this happens through Rayosi, this is
the Parnasa'asi.
It says Bereishis Bara Elokim, in the
beginning Hashem created the world, so
Chazal say Bereishis is Bais Reishis.
Two Reishis, Torah and Yisrael.
That it's because of Yisrael SheNikra
Reishis and Mashiach SheNikra Reishis,
and also because of Torah SheNikra
Reishis.
They're called Reishis because of the
Torah which is also called Reishis, the
beginning. V'lachein I day is that
Yisrael SheNikra, so when you have this
Shidduch, this combination of Jews and
Torah, two Reishis, this creates Bara
Elokim, the two Reishis, I day is that
Yisrael Nikra Rayosi Parnasa'asi. The
Jewish people who are called Rayosi, my
shepherds, my sustainers.
They live according to the blueprint of
Torah which is called bread. So, they're
the shepherds who have bread. The Torah
is called in Mishlei L'chu Lachmu
B'Lachmi, eat your bread with my bread.
So, Hashem calls it my bread, how is
Torah become his bread? It's feeding
him. But this is the shepherd who has
bread, who gives it so to speak to the
one who needs the bread, and what
happens? The soul could now live in the
body, whether it's a sheep, whether it's
a goat, whether it's a horse, whether
it's an ox, whether it's a human being,
and K'Viyachol, Chazal are saying the
divine himself.
So, this is the Bereishis Bara Elokim as
I Nassa Inyan HaParnasa L'Mayla Lachmi.
So, he has bread, what has bread?
>> that the soul of the cosmos, the soul of
the universe should connect, should be
enclosed, and should fill, should
saturate. Three words are used. The sky
should be lavish with the money. The
world just like the soul fills and
saturates the body and animates the
body.
The beginning of creation, like the
purpose of creation.
Yes.
So, the the Jewish people who are
embodied the Torah
bring down, so to speak, they channel
Hashem who is completely beyond the
island, beyond the universe
into the body of the universe. That's
the Yossi.
That's parnassa. You give me parnassa.
Me, me. Lois
is
the same as having a sham as completely
beyond.
And that comes into the gulf. That is
experienced in reality. Yeah.
>> [laughter]
>> Yeah.
This copy is on the beam, I don't know.
I think so, yeah.
We are what we eat, right?
Yeah.
>> [laughter]
>> Interesting. You're saying we we food
changes us. So why is that I'm saying
Hashem
the food is changing?
I understand.
>> [laughter]
>> Here is I think he's talking about the
Malcolm and Momus.
So it's not the
could be not the steer.
Maybe Malcolm and Yoshanisi. I hear. I
hear.
I have to talk to him. I hear.
Okay, yeah.
Or be a mile of I did that I used to
have a lot of ice. See.
To explain what is the the the addition,
the uniqueness, the mile of the
Yoshanisi over at my sister he nay
avoided a minute at Ave Hativis.
In other words, you already spoke a
Yoshanisi is such a profound experience.
He says, "You're right, but a Yoshanisi
is the natural love.
The gun pool loss of a Yoshanisi of a
Malcolm by Yoshanisi and Teva Olam.
And even as we explained that a
Yoshanisi is the Yoshanisi, the the
fusion, the knotting of the world with
godliness, it's connected to the nature
of the world. That is the whole point.
That's why you could talk about it to
the animal soul. It's about the nature
of the universe.
It's God as the true chemistry of the
universe. In other words, if you want
anything real about the world, it's a
Yoshanisi. That's what it is. That's the
divine Hashem.
The worst thing in the world is you look
at something that looks like a bridge,
but it's made out of cards, a house
built of cards. And you go on the bridge
and right? Like in Chelem there was a
story
that the bridge was was was not working.
It wasn't stable. And people would go on
the bridge and they would fall off and
they would fall into the water, kill
themselves or wound themselves. So
Chelem committee met for 7 days and 7
nights and they decided it's an
emergency they're going to build a
hospital right near the bridge.
Yeah.
It's not just a joke. It's it's true in
life, right? Instead of building a
hospital and the bridge, nobody thinks
to fix the bridge.
So, that's what that's what the never
sh'bahamis does, right? The bridge is
not working, so we'll build a hospital.
But, the hospital is also not working
cuz there's too many wounded.
So, you build a hospital to to to do the
hospital or you take the hospital to
court.
So, that's the point that the never
sh'bahamis ultimately you don't want to
sell it a house of cards. It's looking
for truth. If you want to know what is
the world The world is Elokus, it's not
anything else. Nothing else is going to
satisfy real attachment.
So, that's a gevaldik k'var. That was
the whole previous vort of a chossid.
But, what are you describing? You're
describing the universe.
So, now understand since the alter rebbe
says lo azo iker Elokus mash al olam as
mischave mimenu, so a chossid is
gevaldik, but a chossid remains
connected. I'm searching for the self.
I'm searching for the universe. I'm
searching for for for truth in my world.
And the matter ruach b'eima d'siyata
d'shmaya.
So, for the never sh'bahamis, it's good.
But, the never sh'Elokus
is is is searching for for the ultimate
truth, for iker Elokus.
Not for the Elokus that becomes an
engine of the universe, which is
unbelievable.
In other words, every atom is Elokus.
Every molecule is Elokus. Every neuron,
every cell is Elokus.
Every subatomic particle is all Elokus.
It's all a manifestation of Elokus.
And the deeper you go, the more it loses
the the tziur of hakshama of of brute
physical incarnation and becomes energy.
And that's why today in quantum physics,
all the rules of logic fall away
because the language that's going to be
used soon is the language of the of the
divine, of Elokus.
So, that's the that's the truth of the
universe. That that's how Hashem is the
truth of the universe. But, it's a din
in the If you want to use Yeshivish
language, it's Elokus as a din in the
world.
It's the truth of the world. It's It's
Tavech Olam.
You show the animal soul that the true
Metzius Olam is Elokus.
Yeah, it's not what means liggin in
velt.
Not liggin in velt Coca-Cola
or liggin in velt and panzaisk. Liggin
in velt here means liggin in Elokus.
>> [laughter]
>> Liggin in Elokus that the world is
Elokus.
And that's why it speaks to the animal
soul. The animal soul needs the world.
It needs existence. Ruach Am Beheima.
Don't forget I'm a beheima.
>> [laughter]
>> You could talk to ME WHAT A BEHEIMA
NEEDS, but I'm still a beheima. Ruach Am
Beheima Redef Sila Mata. That's why he
finished the last paragraph.
Huh?
Yeah.
And we're talking here we're talking
here about the a divine beheima, an
other beheima. Huh?
Yeah, we spoke last week. I don't want
to be a beheima
the way you think I'm a beheima.
That's why he says a beheima gasa. Yeah,
it's a beheima daka. It's a idle
beheima. Yeah.
It's a loshon of the Torah of gasus ha
ruach. Gasus ha ruach is the expression
of all for arrogance. Now the Rebbe
teaches gasus ha ruach is, you remember?
As the ruchnius is gas.
It's not gasus ha ruach you're an
arrogant narcissist. But we're not
talking about that. That obviously you
need help. Gasus ha ruach means the
ruchnius is gas.
The ruchnius is is is is dense. It's
crude.
Yeah, it's crude. It's ruchnius. The
ruchnius is gas.
It's a whole definition.
>> [laughter]
>> It's spirituality. Don't mix
spirituality and not talking about
anything else. But it's a gas. That's
why he said before the end of Seder
Daled that the the benei Yisrael really
wants Elokus, but Elokus kifi shol ha
mata.
It wants the Elokus
that gives meaning and purpose and
functionality and depth and viability to
my existence.
Which is which is powerful. It's very
very deep. I'm looking for you
understand? I'm looking for a course the
way it gives
viability, meaning, depth, truthfulness,
vitality, authenticity to my existence
as an animal.
That's why he says I can actually get in
the world.
And guns and liquor in the world. Yeah.
In a subtle way, in a subtle way and
it's not
I'm using God.
Not in a bad way using God. Of course
we're all using God.
It's like I'm using electricity. Yeah,
we're all using electricity. Yeah, and
God is the source of all electricity.
Yeah. We're all using electricity
constantly.
Especially in today's day. We're not
upset. We're not manipulative. We're not
exploit God gave us a gift. Here's
electricity. Use it. Just like we use
the internet. Just like we use oxygen.
We're also using oxygen. It's not
manipulative. Yeah. It's a gift. Just
like we use water and we use that we use
every plant and we use apples. So are
you using God? You could call it using
or you're appreciating it. You're
appreciating it. So this is all right
but you understand. So it's
it's a usage. It's here for usage.
That's what he says I can actually get
in the world.
That's the highest standard of the
world.
It's a utility. It's a real utility.
We're very grateful that it's real
oxygen. It's not fake oxygen. So the
definition of understands that there's
real oxygen in the world and you could
connect to the real oxygen and you are
connected to the real oxygen and you
don't have to fake it with fake oxygen.
And that's a
and that's a revolution.
But there's something called the Yossi.
That's all number daily for laying the
final sassy. What's
final sassy
>> means that you're actually connecting
with the with Hashem beyond the world.
But in a way that it comes into the
world. The soul fills the world.
So for this, you need to be able to tune
in to something that is higher than
Hashem filling the world.
This is Elokus, which is beyond the fact
that the worlds are being created from
him.
So you need you're being you want to
touch something that's higher than
Hashem filling the world.
So the person needs to find in himself
that
which is connected. It's connected to
the frequency that's beyond beyond the
whole cosmic experience.
Generally, this is what we say in you
should love Hashem with all your heart
and all your soul, but then you add
my dad.
What's the difference? All your heart
and all your soul, what else do you want
after all your heart and all your soul?
There's something else my dad.
The is all your heart and all your soul
is very very big big. It's the heart and
it's with my heart and it's with my
soul.
In other words, it's what my heart and
soul are looking for.
They're looking for they're looking for
for existence. They're looking for
connection. They're looking for
attachment. So I I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm in
love with that which fills my heart and
it fills my soul. You fill my heart. You
fill my soul.
What's my dad? He said my dad is the
word aid. With my aid.
My dad is my dad. This is I'm actually I
want to love something beyond my
faculties.
Shakol's man shall move by Caleb shall
lie. What's the problem? No, I stay in
my Caleb. What's the big deal? I want to
stay in my Caleb. Are my Caleb are bad?
I have beautiful Caleb.
You said just said that I'm your sister,
I'm your brother, we're connected,
everything is I like my Caleb, I like my
vessels.
Yeah, exactly. Very good. She said
Shakol's man shall move by Caleb shall
lie. As long as a person is confined by
their vessels, containers.
Even when you fill those vessels with
content of holiness, you're not filling
the vessels with dirt.
You're filling the vessels with a
That's the whole point here.
You're filling the vessels with what?
With with with with good stuff.
Nonetheless, the person did not
graduate, they did not leave their
finiteness, their medida, their
their perception of self as being a
fixed creature.
In other words, you don't know who you
are.
So, when it says with all your
with all your best Yeah. you don't know
your best. Yeah.
You know you're good. Yeah. But not the
best.
>> Yeah. You're aid. The part of you that's
beyond, the part of you that's beyond.
Not the beyond, beyond
The word beyond, yeah. Yeah.
Yeah.
There's Yeah, there's there's there's a
madness here. In in a very beautiful
way.
It's a rhythm to the madness, but
there's a madness here. There's an
infinity, that's the quest for infinity.
My aid is mad, very good.
Does it and and so if it's we're saying
it's not it
Right, it's a sickness,
right?
Yeah.
It's a sickness.
The result says that it's with of 49
ches, vav, lamed, hey, because he's
searching for the 50th gate.
That's what's making him sick.
It's not something you can explain from
the perspective of Caleb. In other
words, your kaili is fine. Like, you're
getting a paycheck. You could pay your
rent. You could pay your mortgage. Like,
what do you want? But, it's the world of
the kaili, I get it. Like, you're being
filled.
So, if we were taka Caleb,
we would be happy.
If I was taka ba'ayna, I don't
understand.
Right. It's kavaldek what you have.
Yeah.
Like, what do you want? You have
breakfast.
>> [laughter]
>> You
You have You have a You're a hen in a
beautiful backyard in Monsey.
You have grass, sheep. You're a sheep,
you're a goat. Outs is good, right? You
have a beautiful shepherd. They like
you. They connect to you. That's all I
see. And it's amazing. And And that's
the That's the beginning.
Cuz if there's no safety,
I can't go to the next level.
I'm preoccupied with safety. As the
Maslow uh
um pyramid of needs, you know, if you're
choking me, and you say, "Hey, Rabbi
Why, why let's meditate and relax."
Yeah, first take your hands off my neck,
and then we could uh you know, you have
to appreciate that.
Huh?
You can't bypass it. Like, the gemara
says, you're not allowed to feed the
human being before you feed your
animals. If you have an It's a It's a
mitzvah. Venasati esav besas chulev
umtecha, and then vachalta vesavata.
If I want to eat breakfast in the
morning, but my chickens or my dog or my
my sheep did not eat breakfast, then I'm
not allowed to eat. Pashtalahala.
There's a whole shailan in in in the
mefarshim how Eliezer told Rivka, "I'm
going to give you water, and then I'm
going to give your camels water." It
should be the other way around. I'm
going to give your camels water. Okay,
it's a whole But, the question is an
interesting question. You know, how did
Eliezer Eliezer would grow by Avraham
Avinu? He knew here. Avraham Avinu knew
the whole Torah.
It's an interesting question. So, now
the Rebbe says in the Likutei Torah
half of the kavod. He says, "You will
never be able to feed your nefesh Elokis
if you don't first feed your nefesh
habehamis."
He doesn't mean feed your nefesh
habehamis with cheesecake and rugelach.
He means feed your nefesh habehamis with
Elokus.
With its truth, yeah.
That's why achos comes before that. Cuz
the nefesh habehamis is going to revolt.
It's a meshugana.
You want to go You want to go to your
higher worlds? Go to your higher worlds.
But I'm saying I'm in I'm in I'm
I'm the I'm in charge. I'm protecting
you. So, don't bypass me here.
And if you will, I will come back with a
vengeance. And that's what happens to
people sometimes. They bypass
their their their human self
cuz they want to go straight into a save
of klal man.
Right? But the nefesh habehamis comes
back with a vengeance.
Yeah. And it's not because you're
compromising. It's because you're
integrating. Not because you're
compromising, cuz you're integrating.
It's not because you're trying to be
spiritually narcissistic.
It's because you could never really
touch rayasi if you didn't touch achos.
Sounds like this is the equivalent of a
girl.
Huh?
>> [laughter]
>> Yeah. So So, that I'm saying that this
is very very important.
So, if I'm saying if I was only a
behema, takah, it would be good. I have
breakfast, lunch, supper, v'zuch v'zuch
still.
But because deep down berashis bishvil
Yisrael, Yisrael are rooted in the
berashis, in the pre-creation, in iker
Elokus.
So, deep down the soul
is not satisfied with being a kayli.
The kayli ultimately becomes a trap. It
becomes a prison.
Doesn't work.
It works very well.
Huh?
Ad lo yada. Ad lo yada. That's what he
means l'chaim. Ad lo yada, right? What's
That's the ad lo yada.
So, did I see that's what he says. So,
even if I fill my calendar with a token
of Kadusha,
the self that is that is functioning as
a self of Medida of Agbala. It's a
measurement. It's Medida means is a
measurement.
Elokus became a measurement. It's a
mathematical equation. Now, it's a
amazing mathematical equation.
You know, physics is communicated
through equations, which is Medida.
Medida means a Medida, a measurement.
Because that's the beauty of the world.
The beauty of the world is that there
are laws of nature. If there was no laws
of nature, we wouldn't be able to study
anything. We wouldn't be able to be
aware of anything. It works. It works.
And there's rules that you can deduce.
Maybe sometimes you're wrong, maybe
you're right, but every bridge that's
built, every tsatske that's built,
anything is based on because somebody
understood the measurements. There's
rules.
Everything. How a tree grows
and how a cell reproduces. Physics.
Yeah, this is called physics. And and
chemistry and and biology.
>> Chemistry, biology, everything,
astronomy, cosmology. And and that's the
beauty of searching for those rules.
Searching for the Medidas.
And it's all Elokus. It's the Elokus
that came into Medida.
Who made who What what when we say it's
you know, it's a rule of nature. It's a
law of nature. You know, it sounds like
it's an explanation, right? It's the
most dumb explanation. Laws of nature.
Thank you.
I can't get three teenagers in the
classroom to follow laws of nature,
right? And here you have trillions,
endless, endless, endless forces.
They're all busy with the law.
AND NOBODY EVER BROKE the law. Nobody
can't get three people to follow the
law.
North Korea in one room you can follow
it. Unless in North Korea, and look how
hard it is.
And here here here the entire universe,
they're all busy with What's the law of
nature? What's the law of You heard
about a LAW OF NATURE? EVERYBODY EVERY
ATOM
WHERE DID THEY GET THIS COUPLE SOUL?
WHO'S terrorizing them?
You have come Jin John like where where
he's somewhere in space running the
world?
Right, so what we say in science, yeah?
It's it's
It's laws of nature.
It's just
It's Yeah, it's basically saying I'm
using words to escape the truth.
The truth is no such thing as laws of
nature. Laws is created by a law maker.
There's not single law that wasn't
created by a law maker. And the law
maker has to have a power to enforce
those laws. Only if there's a creator
who's beyond everything. He created the
laws and he sustains the laws and
they're all part of it and they're not
upset about it. They're all very happy.
So that's all mamaleh.
Comes out to Rebbi and says, "Don't make
a mistake
Nisht in dem bash state of locus.
And deep down the soul is aware of this.
So that's the bechol may daicha.
That as long as it's
even if the kelim are filled with
kedusha, I didn't go out.
So therefore, the person can't access
the Elokus that's beyond the world
because the person is confined in the
vessels.
When the person finds in themselves the
courage to go out of their daicha
daicha. In other words, to crack open
from all of their vessels and
containers, even the holy vessels, even
the good vessels.
So now that's the bechol may daicha. So
now what did you touch? You touched the
Elokus that's may daicha.
Now you feel it. Now you say, "Ah."
So by your presence by you cracking open
that energy, what does it do? It makes
brings down Elokus into the into the
guf.
That's what happens. Cuz everything is
as upon him upon him. you know, like we
learned to you know, the the the face
the
we learned to in the beginning of the
mind me, right? The face we show to the
water, the water shows back to us.
Like it says in Zaya to Tova we learned
when you're in a in a disposition of
joy, you reciprocate that. Hashem
Tzelcha the Balshem Tov said, God is
your tzel.
Like a shadow, it emulates you.
So when the person is now in touch with
a part that's deeper than Caleb,
meaning I go beyond even Gasa Sorua,
even my spiritual ego,
so now suddenly what happens? You become
a Beis Hamikdash, you become a container
not only for the Elokus, that's Mamale
Asalem, you become a a container for the
Iker Elokus, which is completely beyond.
And that's and that's what the soul
wants. That's what the soul is looking
for cuz that's the truth, that's the
Pnemius.
And that's what real dirah betachtonim
doesn't mean I want to live with you in
a house covered up with a hundred layers
of filters and concealments. A dirah is
the pshat of the only place where a
person could be without any clothes. The
Alter Rebbe says in the Maamer dirah
betachtonim means no everywhere you have
to be dressed. The only place you're
comfortable with being naked is your
house. Mitzniyas you have to know
whatever, but that's the point. Even a
melech you're not allowed to see a
melech you're not allowed to go it says
you're not allowed to go to with a
melech to the mikvah because you're not
allowed to see him when he's naked. But
in his dirah
he could be without clothes. When Hashem
says dirah betachtonim it means without
clothes.
Without clothes means without levushim,
the Iker Elokus.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah.
So this is Avida Bechol Maydacha, this
is Rayasi.
So this is what Hashem is calling out
Pischili, I want to be with you, uh
first of all Achasi.
That's the first thing.
Second of all, you're Rayasi. It's not
just I want to be with you. Rayasi,
you're the one
that I can have a relationship with the
essence, and it's It's essence that
wants to be with you. Not just
God as a utilitarian engine of the
universe, which is incredible and
amazing and infinite because it's the
source of all the energy. It's a sham in
his
in his
the
that's beyond. That's what wants to be
with you.
You are a Yossi.
How?
Because you're the one who sustains it.
You're the one who reaches out.
This is not the main thing you're for
the Bahamas.
That's why he said in the end of the end
of the last paragraph, the
is really looking for
and wants the world to be one with
only there should be only
a coefficient of the matter.
That was the but it's
my job is
The behavior doesn't mix into the fight.
What's so beautiful about animals? They
don't need to figure stuff out, right?
They just know what works and they're
loyal. You have a horse.
You take care of the horse, the horse
takes care of you.
The horse doesn't ask a question. Where
were you born? You like your mother?
Why do you have insecurity?
Why you miserable? Why you happy? The
horse knows all these things.
Feels everything.
But feels everything. But the horse the
horse doesn't is not
I do my job. I'm a horse and I'm here to
serve and that's it. You take care of
me, I take care of you. I like you.
That's a good animal.
And it's a beautiful thing. It's a
the fight.
So that's why it wants only but
coefficient of the matter.
The way it becomes the engine of the
universe, the way it becomes
It serves it serves the purpose of
realness of attachment.
Yeah, that's what it's looking for.
Yeah.
Yeah. Alakus kafisholamata.
The way Alakus is defined as the the
core of the atom and the cell and the
neuron and and and every nakuda of the
world, which is dvar Hashem and even
deeper ratzon Hashem.
Yeah.
And as I said, you have to feed your
animal soul before you feed your divine
soul.
In other words, it needs to appreciate
that.
It's both. So, Torah has the aspect of
a blueprint for the world,
but Torah also has the aspect, like
we're going to see in a moment, that is
rayosi. He's going to say that in a
moment. That's the beracious.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Beracious bishvil
Yisrael bishvil haTorah. That's the
beracious. That's pre-creation. It's the
purpose of creation. It brings creation
in contact with that which is
pre-creation,
which the animal is not searching for.
The soul is.
But me nimo of finish my saying shul
tzaddikim, it says in madrashen rush, we
learned in the Likutei Torah a few
times, Hashem consulted in a shamas of
tzaddikim and amicholim tzaddikim
whether to create the world. That means
there's something there that's
pre-creation.
And the soul tells God,
"You could do it. I got this one.
I can go into the world and and we're
going to stay together."
So, it's rooted in in the relationship
that's deeper than everything.
So, there was a contract before There's
a contract that the Hashem made with the
soul. The soul had to agree because
we're the ones doing the mission.
>> [laughter]
>> The soldiers who are being sent to the
front lines in Iran
or Normandy or whatever that looks like
in a person's life, the soul had to
agree.
Yeah,
writes in Parshas Ki Seitzei based on
the Gemara in Maseches Rosh Hashanah
that
every soul agrees to everything that's
going to happen throughout its life
before it comes down.
Now, what sometimes people look at their
life and say, "I never agreed to this."
It's not true.
"I did not sign up for this. This is a
fantasia."
So, but it's one of two truths. Either
God confused you with somebody else,
somewhere in the DNA in the hospital,
somebody in in the womb of your mother
he confused with the wrong DNA, or maybe
you don't yet know what you signed up
for because you don't know who you are.
That's probably more likely like it.
When you go to much deeper places,
you'll see that maybe you signed up.
Huh?
Yeah.
Well, seeking comfort as as a path to
fulfill our mission is part of the
mission.
Right?
But it's it's also knowing
that it's the it's the connection, it's
fulfilling of the purpose of my purpose
that's the deepest calling in my soul
and my DNA. And anything else ultimately
it may satisfy my external parts, but
it's not going to really satisfy me. In
other words, we all have challenges in
life that we say, "You know, I wish I
can get rid of it." And it makes sense
to say that.
But we have to also know something
deeper. And that is did you ever have a
conversation with the deepest part of
your soul and ask it about it?
Cuz it might tell you something else. It
might tell you, I know in your calum
this doesn't work.
I know in your calum this is breaking
your calum. You don't want shviras ha
calum. I want to serve God. I want to be
real, but I want it in my calum. And
this is breaking my calum. It's breaking
my vessels. So, what is that about?
So, if I was only a beheima,
I didn't sign up for this.
But that's the vorter. The vorter is
that you come from a place that's much
deeper than calum. You're completely
beyond this. You're rooted in Elokus
that's lema'ala mimidei davak bola. It's
pure ein sof. It was sent into calum in
order to transform the world, not to
become trapped by the world.
So, your love what you're looking for
your love is not only bechol nafshicha,
bechol me'odecha. Bechol You're looking
for bechol me'odecha.
That's what you're looking for. And no
calum is going to satisfy you, and the
breaking of the calum is really an
invitation for you to find who you
really are. That you become a container
for Hashem in his essence, cuz that's
who you are, and that's what you really
want.
So, really at the end of the day, it's
not the breaking of you, it's the
breaking of the vessels that you thought
define you.
It's not the breaking of you, it's the
liberation of you.
Cuz that's who you really are. The
challenges become our redemption. Yes,
the challenges become the redemption
because the calum became a prison. And
here we're talking about holy vessels.
We have to remember this.
We're talking about achaisiy, but it's
Elokus. That's what That's why he
started this sif. The beer of the ma'ala
of achaisiy over the ma'ala of achaisiy.
Why does he need this? Because a Jew can
ask, "What? I'm fine with achaisiy.
Let me serve Hashem in my vessels
bemenuchas hanefesh, bemenuchas haguf,
mimidei davak bola. What's wrong with
mimidei davak bola? What's wrong with
spiritual laws of nature? Was willst
du?"
Why does the Alter Rebbe have to say in
the middle of davening, "Ich vil sei
garnicht. Ich vil nicht dein ganeden.
Ich vil nicht dein olam haba. Ich vil
menash das dechalin." Olam haba became
what? A gehenem?
I don't understand. Was "Ich vil nicht.
Ich vil nicht" vilnius? Be happy and you
have
and and no.
So this wasn't a rebellion against his
gifts.
But it
it was describing it was describing what
God is really looking for and therefore
what my soul is really looking for.
Not to get distracted it's
my parnasa.
You're essentially saying you feed me.
Please don't stop feeding me.
I don't want to be connected only a
superficial part of me with a
superficial part of you.
It's the full full depth of a fusion
that I want. Me and my essence wants you
and your essence.
Like we learned before about David.
That's what I see. For this I need your
food. Don't I need I'm waiting for
breakfast.
It's a relationship with me and that's
always beyond Caleb. You're never going
to find that in Caleb.
This is tuning into the place of a
Hashem which is beyond the
which is me going outside of my Caleb
and I become a container for that.
And this is this is the the next level
of of the relationship.
We all have things in life that work
with our vessels with our spiritual
vessels and we have things in life that
shatter our vessels.
They challenge us. They they trigger
they they they shatter our vessels.
What what is that about?
I signed up for this.
God is punishing me it's punitive what
it's just to be cynical to make life
miserable. So that's this Nikuda.
This Nikuda is because like we spoke in
the
we spoke I think you try to bring it
right. You have to know what you were
created for.
Loyola Toyota.
So this brings us in this brings us the
only thing is we can't shut doors. In
other words, if we become cynical and
angry and resentful, then
the animal doesn't have anything. Then
it's just I become a resentful person.
We need to remain open-hearted with
this. Pischu li. Don't shut the door.
Don't shut the door on me. Pischu li.
That's before everything. Don't shut the
door because life is hard. We shut the
door. We shut our hearts. That's what we
do. At a very young age, we close our
hearts because it's too painful. Pischu
li. Remain open. Remain open.
At the end of the day, it's all
connection. Remain Pischu li. Don't shut
your heart on me. It's very easy to shut
your heart. That's why it's called Doidy
Doidy Pischu li. Once this Pischu li,
now there's the avoid of a chosid and a
yosid. But the in the middle, don't shut
it. Don't say, "You know what? I'm done.
Let's go back. Let's just forget about
all this."
You know, pass
pass whatever I need you to pass.
So, that's what he's now going to finish
here.
And that's why we said parnassa si
happens through Torah lachmi.
The chul lachum lach is Torah is God's
inner will and wisdom. The medrish says
2,000 years it preceded the world. What
does that mean? It's beyond say that it
starts with us.
On one level, you could look at Torah
simply as laws, how to run the world.
If you have a partnership, a shituf in
shor osos michitza, this is what you do.
Shnayim ochzim betallis, this is what
you do.
You want to eat meat, these are the laws
of shchita. You could look at Torah as a
blueprint of how to live in the world,
which is true. Shulchan Aruch.
But the truth is, no. It's lema'ala mi
seder hishtalshelus. A pa'yim shana
kodma Torah le'olam.
It's accessing the inner will and mind
pre-creation. Velachen al yedei nasi'in
de'asu parnassa si,
to be able to fuse the soul with the
body, which is what food is. Meaning
that the the task of
which is beyond should be able to come
into say that it to fill the body to
fill my life to fill my home to fill our
world. That's right. You are my
shepherd. You are my partner. You are
the one who feeds me. You are the one
who brings this into the world.
That's the depth of your connection.
That's a
and then you see.
He doesn't stop.
What else?
My camera do you took away beyond my
camera you also took away.
The
difference
was yet.
Yeah.
I told you the master, right?
So what is that?
It's one of the best stories ever. When
I was arrested
So he went to hide for a whole night. He
went to a club, a nightclub cuz he
thought they won't catch him there. They
won't look for the altar
a bar. I don't know what type of bars
they had in the ocean. It wasn't like so
hard. But whatever drinking place for
the for the peasants in Ukraine and in
in Russia and in the in white Russia.
This is Belarus, Lithuania. Depends on
when the war that Monday. Either Belarus
or Lithuania used to go like this like
this like ping pong.
At the end of the night and I don't
know if someone is one of his and he
went with him cuz he said it says in the
in key
of
it's always good to wait a little bit
till the wrath passes. So so let's in
the morning he asked if
he should stay if he thinks he should
just stay there.
And maybe the the people who came to
arrest him will leave. So he says no,
you should give yourself in. So he said
why?
So
who was his
he said
I'm saying this.
This to
can call me man.
This to can call me man.
This to can call me man. to stay
with what I left us to the two gentlemen
from 100 to 2000 to get the money in the
Amazon.
If you're the real thing, a bullet won't
get you. And if you're not, you deserve
it.
Who gave you a right to deprive hundreds
of thousands of Jews from the money in
the Amazon?
That's what he said. And after that I
listened to me, went out and he gave
himself in. From this came this
question.
In other words, the the whole the whole
the whole
city is a night movie
embodiment of a night movie like a
non-stop like it's it's
Huh?
That's true. That's true. There's no
better
you're right. But to get to that step,
there's a grief of of saying goodbye to
the clipper that we live in for some
sometimes or most of our life. There's a
grief there.
You're right. Once once you once you
touch it, you know right away. But even
that there's still there's a pain there.
You have to acknowledge it.
Yeah.
They talk about honest communication.
You know, there's if you're not the real
thing, you're not just you're criminal.
Some people okay, they're not the real
thing. They're they're selling Brooklyn
Bridge is big deal. But this is this is
criminal. Huh? You deserve it to die.
This this is this is not just you're
you're you're creating a paradigm shift.
This is playing with people's minds in
the deepest form.
You understand?
You want to tell everybody that you're
just selling another title of fine.
But but to the nervous system right for
like we know with children right there
so susceptible to truth. If this is not
really really really MS, this is a crime
of the highest order.
You want to sell real estate and make
stick in your real estate. Okay, it's
not the night not a nice thing to do,
but fine.
But you're not selling real estate.
You're selling God.
So if you're selling him
>> [laughter]
>> if it's a business
even if it's a holy spiritual business,
it's very
it's it's it's serious stuff.
So, now Naxalin Yaneinu, so there's
Achoyse and Ayose.
So, he says, "Amnam, there's something
called Yoynasi." What's Yoynasi?
Yoynasi comes from the word Yoyna, which
means a dove, a tayvela.
The bird that's called a Yoyna.
What's Yoynasi? Why does from all the
animals you could say you could say you
could say a lot of them. You could say
my sheep.
Say my goat.
Yeah? You could say my child.
He says, "Yoynasi, my dove." He says,
"Amnam, bees a funny way to the Achoyse
with Ayose Shudim Madinim Sedra
Shalsulos."
Both levels Achoyse and Ayose are
connected to Sedra Shalsulos. Sedra
Shalsulos means the order of creation,
meaning in the Sedra Shalsulos Atzmi
Achoyse, I could fish him a machine of
cleaner Shul Amaylim Sedra Shalsulos
Lisa Kadish Baruchu Mali Asaylim Ayose.
Either it's we're dealing only with
Sedra Shalsulos, which is Achoyse. In
other words, the way the divine is
embodied in Sedra Shalsulos, and that's
the truth of the world. That's
Hishtalshelus. Or deeper Ayose, the way
we access from beyond Hishtalshelus
right? Ayose, you're sustaining me.
You're bringing the soul into the body.
Hashem, who's beyond into the world,
into into our world. B'chol Maydach.
So, it's interesting after this whole
Sif, he says we're still talking about
Sedra Shalsulos.
Even though he said that Achoyse cannot
live in the world. AYOSE ACHAF FROM
WORLD. HE SAYS, "EMES." BUT, it's in
Sedra Shalsulos. Why? Cuz that's what
you're bringing into Sedra Shalsulos.
Nus Vus Vilstu? So, Ayose is still on
the level of Mamale. Yeah, so Ayose
still it's to bring it into Mamale, huh?
Even if it's Mamale
If it's a Mamale B'li Atzmi, but it's
like food. Food is bringing the soul
into the body. The food doesn't keep the
soul transcendent. That's the whole
point of food to bring it into the body.
To bring the soul into the body. To
bring
into the Memale oilam.
And that's the of Torah. That's why
Torah is not abstract. It's
but what's Torah? It's bringing it into
the world. That's the whole of Torah.
After
and you can't skip those two.
You come to something deeper which is
called Yona.
What we see by doves is dove from all
the birds and from all the animals
there's a unique quality that you see in
them. They could gaze at each other for
hours on end.
All animals in order to propagate need a
mate for male and female. But it's
usually
a few seconds, a few minutes. This
courtship they have to attract whatever
it's a whole
works in nature. You know, how this male
attracts the female. But the bottom line
is it's transactional.
You know, everybody knows it. I'm
looking for the female because we have
to create a new generation. Everybody
knows it. The males have it in their
DNA. The females have it in their DNA.
With doves you see how put in a new
paradigm. They just look at each other
for hours. That's not that's not
utilitarian.
Do what you got to do and move on from
right?
>> [laughter]
>> What do you need this whole this whole
what's what's what's what's
What's
you have nothing to look at? They you
ever see you could see they stand on
on uh
uh electrical wires. Anywhere they find
a place to stand and they look and they
look and they look and they don't move.
There's a one of the
they don't look at anything else. They
only stay focused on this.
So, what is it?
And why is it in nature?
So, the says
but it should
actually kind of be stuck with them.
What's channeled in this gazing is the
core of their bliss.
You'll say, "Why are you doing it?" I
don't have a why. So, what are you
gaining from it? You're going to have a
new generation? For that, you have to
mate.
So, what's the p'shat? The p'shat is
it's not for any purpose.
The Etzem HaTaanug, the core bliss of
safety and connection and attachment is
coming through this gazing.
Just to look at you
in that sense of with that regulation
and serenity, that channels Etzem
HaTaanug. There's a deep bliss in that.
So, you say, "But what are you what are
you what You're not taking anything to
the bank." This is better than the bank.
But what what What's the point? This is
the point. It's not a point.
Yeah, exactly.
The Klalus in the Inyan Bistaklus, why
gazing? Because gazing HaMakah Yosair
Chazakah She'yecheleh Yisbodeh Im.
In terms of the human capacity, this
represents the deepest form of HaMakah,
the deepest form of connection.
She'Yedei Zeh Nasisah Samuch She'Yosair
Chazakah. You see, when you see
something, what do we call it? Seeing is
believing. There's nothing as true in
your life as something that you saw.
I can hear a hundred stories, I can have
proof, I can figure it out, but
everybody knows you saw it,
it's a whole different experience.
Mitzad Re'iyas Einayim Basar Mitzad
Re'iyas Ein HaSeichel B'Oifen HaYosair
Na'alah, Ad Lidei Bistaklus B'Samuch
B'Samuch She'Bichnisah Chochmah.
Either we talk about physical with your
eyes. Sometimes there's something called
no seeing with your mind's eye. It's
called Ein HaSeichel. They sometimes
call it the third eye, you know, the
third eye as in
e y e or the
It's the inner snowing. It's But you see
it.
Some things I can't see physical, but I
could see with my mind's eye. You see
it.
You know, there's something you see and
you could never unsee it again.
Yeah.
I could bring you a hundred proofs with
a passport that you that last night you
were in Australia, but you're not going
to agree with me because you know you
weren't in Australia. I saw it and
there's no unseeing it.
Right? In life, sometimes people have a
They see something
either physically or with their mind's
eye and you could never unsee it. You
could just delude yourself. You can have
a million people telling you you're a
meshuggener.
And it may happen.
But you saw it. You saw it. And you know
you're not crazy.
Now, I know crazy people will say
they're not crazy. I got that.
But still, alpha beta came. You saw it,
you saw it.
You saw it. Sometimes we need help with
interpretation. Sometimes we do have a
challenge and we have to know things.
That's all true. But we're talking about
when you saw it, you saw it.
And then there's an ear called
it's called seeing.
In Zohar, there's an expression to gaze
at the beauty, at the glory of the king.
This is called the king.
This is your
in Shir Hashirim, it says
your eyes are like the eyes of a dove.
Why why again? Why why the eyes of a
dove? They have nice eyes, but other
creatures have nice eyes. The idea is
your eyes are the eyes of a dove that
you don't stop looking.
So, the gazing is representing
that you're connecting to a truth in a
very very deep place
and your tiny is coming out in that.
This is
this is the way of your eyes.
So, we need to look at the world.
This is the courage to gaze from below
from below looking upwards in the
language
in the language of
it says call
upon
the name of
God. This is called
You come to see and you come to be
seeing. Hashem says, I just want to look
at you.
And the Jew says, the soul says, and I
just want to look at you.
Why?
I just want to look at you. It's almost
like you're glued. I can't look anywhere
else. The Yona is not forced to look.
But there's nothing else that comes even
close to attractiveness
as a nacha Yona. Like, why would I go
look somewhere else? It's like you know
you sometimes you're glued to something
and nobody can tap you away from it
because it's just like it completely
saturates you.
You're like mesmerized emotionally.
It's both postures. As the dove malmeta
looks bolly rice any a sham malts a
dekim
he looks at you.
This is the not the same as this. Why?
Because here there's no nakuda outside
of the gazing itself.
There's no other purpose here.
In this, you have the intensity of the
bliss,
the connection,
the fusion, and the oneness, the
intimacy.
This is intimacy for the sake of
intimacy.
A chias
we were talking about is all a way of
life, a beautiful way of life.
>> [snorts]
>> One is say that it's
seeing the truth of and one is infusing
the truth beyond in this.
You
see there's no transactional element
here. You see is
I just want to see you.
Into me see, intimacy, into me see.
Now you can't get to you without a chias
cuz without complete trust, we're not
even going to go here.
This is relaxing the entire being
into that ability. There's such a
complete safety and regulation at the
core of our nervous system and our
existence
that there's nothing deeper than just
looking, gazing. And that gazing is the
etsem of the two doves
experiencing bliss
and the core of the bliss in these eyes.
It's not just the physical eyes, it's
the eyes are capturing the full
intensity of their deepest bliss with
each other.
>> [snorts]
>> This is called list hakala b'kavod
demalka.
Our Judaism is still looking for a
chaisey.
So we can get to a rayasi. Yoinasi is
such far I just want to say this. It's
such foreign language cuz even in human
relationships most people don't even
have a saga what this means. In other
words, if in human relations you can get
to a chaisey, you already hit a lot of
home runs.
It's like you've been scoring amazing,
you know?
You can go into the world of fame with
with with uh
>> [laughter]
>> Exactly. Rayasi is already so much
deeper, but yoinasi
yoinasi is list hakala b'kavod demalka.
But the truth is
when does this begin?
So if you look at a child when an infant
is born
and the mother is very regulated, her
nervous system and they look at each
other, what does the child see in the
eyes of the mother and what does the
mother see in the eyes of the child?
If the mother is thinking, I hope you
grow up to be a doctor
or at least a big rav or a big godol,
yeah? You better give me nachas. I want
a good shidduch.
So we all understand that that mother
needs a lot a lot of help. Now a lot of
mothers do that, a lot of fathers do
that. It's transactional.
Or you're very cute.
Even that. Or can you finally fall
asleep and give me a little menucha,
which are all normal emotions. I'm not
we're all normal we're all trying to
survive.
But at the moment the child nervous
system feels that I'm a burden to you
they know it right away and that gaze is
never the same anymore. Now it's all
transactional. How do I get my mother to
give me the milk or the toys or later in
life the money that I need?
This ain't going to miss the feeling
that there's nowhere you want to be in
the world more than here.
There's no greater and deeper experience
that you have more than this.
And there's no moment more precious than
this encounter.
What that gives a child is an unshakable
sense
of internal value that will never be
able to be obliterated by any
circumstances in the world.
The only ones who can give this to
children is if they have it themselves.
If I was never given it to me, there's
no way I can give it to you not because
I don't want to because I don't even
know what it means. So like you'll ask
me to give you a million dollars. I
don't have a million dollars in my
pocket. So I can't I would like to, but
I don't know what it means. Here it's
not only that I don't have it, I don't
know what it means. It's different. A
million dollars we can all understand
what it means. I just don't have it.
But here it's not just I don't have I
don't know what it means I don't know
what you want from me. I could look at
you and I can give you milk. And what
else do you want? What else do you want?
Like what do what do you want me to do?
I have a crib. I'll buy a new crib.
Whatever, I'll take you to the doctor
for an earache. I'll give you
antibiotic. What do you want?
And that's love. Like and it's true, it
is, right? But that's not the inner OC.
But this is a metaphor for it. It's the
historical the historical cut of the
mouth cut means when a person can
experience that Atzmus loves you.
All I want is peace. All I want is to be
with you and there's no deeper
experience for Hashem saying than this
moment with you.
And not transactional.
And [snorts] your soul experiences that.
That's the inner one. So this is beyond
the
cuz it's not about creation and being
something. It's not even about meaning
in life.
It's It's not It's the
It's the It's the
of just
the light. new.
And it goes both ways. It goes both
ways. Cuz if one dove is not interested,
how long can I look? I look I look I
look I look and dove says, "By the way,
I'm busy. Somebody got to work for a
living, you know?
If you want supper tonight, if you want
supper tonight, yeah? GO GET A JOB AND
let me go to my job." WHICH MAKES SENSE.
It makes sense. Like how do do we even
have the mental space, the bandwidth to
go here?
Somebody got to support a family, right?
And yet the Rebbi is saying that this is
the from Hashem
to have even a 5 minutes of
this is your nussy. So Hashem says,
"Pischili, not only cuz you're my
sister, not only cuz you're my shepherd,
you're my dove."
And what's that? I want to look at you.
Me? You want to look at me? You know,
you got the wrong guy. I'm not so
handsome. No, no, no, you you
Maybe somebody else. And probably him
you also don't want to look at. He's
also not so handsome.
Right, even that belief system is there
something to look at? And I want to look
at you and I don't want to stop looking.
I'm like addicted. The young man are
like addicted in a good way addicted.
Like like this
I told you the Medrash says that once
they see the other, they don't look
anywhere else. Cuz who's looking?
Huh?
In other words, once there's
cut of the malca, there's nowhere else
to look at.
So this is the idea that whatever I look
at, I could be looking at a mountain. I
could be looking at the leaf of a tree.
But what I'm really gazing at is I'm
gazing at Ain Soph.
That's what I'm gazing at.
So it's it's it's a different frequency
of life. I may be looking at a piece of
food that God created. I may be looking
at a cup of water.
But what am I looking at? I'm looking at
the malca.
There's intimacy in every experience.
Into me see. Can you see the presence of
That's what I'm looking at. So it's like
a mesmerizing experience. You don't look
away.
That's the depth when you say
Zohar is don't go into that. Zohar is
right. It could come from a place don't
go into Zohar is cuz it's not good for
you. It's immoral. You could get
punished. But here the is you don't go
to Zohar is because I can't look away.
A
Zohar is telling me look away. I can't
look away.
I'm busy.
And I'm busy with something that I'm
going to be busy for
I'm going to be busy till the this is
not something I'm going to graduate
from. I'm not busy cuz I'm stressed cuz
this is it.
The all stress is worth worth all the
stress is worth to be able to reach this
this is not a for something. It's not a
get it over with. Okay, stop looking.
You know what are you staring at me
sugar now?
The truth is in physical life we can't
have this too much because
you look you look
you go to the Grand Canyon. Okay, you
were there a week you were there a
month. You hung out there for 6 months.
You know you
6 months you were there. OKAY, YOU SAW
NEXT YOU TOOK the main thing is you took
a picture. You put it on WhatsApp. You
were here.
Fine in your resume.
Right? That's all you're not looking.
This
is
so since it's it's like
it's like breathtaking. It's it's the
more you look it's more breathtaking.
Yeah. Yeah.
Don't try to understand this.
>> [laughter]
>> Yeah.
Obviously this ain't so if but but that
which the but the can perceive stuff the
can perceive deep and stuff.
Yeah.
And that's what he says it's not I have
to say that it's also a cloud.
Why?
Because it's the Indian ice tacos. Say
that it's means God creates something.
Here
is.
That's what he says. Why is it not to
say that it's a cloud?
It's Indian ice tacos.
Because it's just the gaze itself. So
how does that answer it? Because say
that it's
says there's a product
with a purpose. It's full of his
presence. But there's a product so to
speak. The
I want you to bring in the
I want you to bring in
here it's the
itself.
Looks like in a love. There is love in
order to build a house. Beautiful. To
build a family. Beautiful. These are not
at say that it's
we're loving in order to build something
together. We want to build a legacy. We
want to build a house. We want to build
a beautiful center. We want to build a
family. We want to build children. All
amazing.
This is the
what's the relationship for?
No for.
There's nowhere I want to look and I
want to be besides right here looking.
Why looking? Why not hearing? That's
what he says. Because looking represents
the deepest the deepest form of
presence.
Right? That's why we gaze at each other.
There's something very special about it.
Talking about
just somebody calling from my house.
Hello?
Yeah, in a few minutes. I'm going to
take it. You okay?
10:00 you start, right?
Yeah, okay.
Okay, great. I'll see you.
So this is you see.
Now what's the mercy?
>> [laughter]
>> Now it's almost like a trick.
So now this is this is going to become
what will stand out.
Unless the only way the only place to go
from here is that you don't exist.
But then there's no called I do I think
right the only after you know since you
don't exist. Okay, so then so
So let's let's shut down shop. Let's
let's stop talking.
So what are you knocking on my door? You
don't want me to exist. Fine. Don't
create me. You want me to exist. So
what's deeper than you know see? Okay.
So here's half of a fellow. What's
deeper than you know see is going to be
like
you're going to look to a higher diary
of so deeper diary.
You're more than a stalker.
So this is here you come to something
deeper.
Let's see
by days of my dealer diary of fusion of
tamasi.
From here after
you know see you come to tamasi. What's
tamasi? The word tamasi is shalomus like
Tom Tom shalom.
Tom and Tia.
Tamasi my completion.
You're my sister. You're my shepherd, my
sustainer. You're my dove and you're my
completion. What's that?
Behind you
shall we do some shall we only boyfriend
should have a good Barack.
The good word has an expression.
That you could become a shoot off the
avoid of the Jew is that he becomes like
a partner to Asha. What does it mean a
partner? What's a partnership?
That there's
a need in your in your in your in your
avoid in your activities in your work.
Expression in
he craves the work of your hands.
There's something about your work that I
crave.
What's a real shoot off? Why do you have
a partner?
A partner is not a voluntary because I'm
a nice guy. That's not what partnership
is. Partnership means is that without my
partner I know this company is not going
to go anywhere.
I may have dreams and I may have skill,
right? But I need I need an investor. An
investor is going to want 50%.
And a real should first Raj but says
it's not just you have 50, I have 50. In
every part we're should film.
We may split up the revenue, but a real
should first means in every Nakuda
should be another words I'm contributing
and you're contributing in every part of
the business.
So the Rabbi says that's Tamasi Lemasi
Adachi Tiksaif.
There's something about you.
So here it shifts. Achaisiy Reiyosiy
Yichudiy is about the relationship, how
close we are.
Tamasi is that I actually need you to be
you.
Here it's almost like I'm sending you
away.
Here it's about your independence, your
creativity. He's going to explain behind
you.
As the avoid is that the Messiah's never
sure of his clearly the surrender we
spoke about.
This is the avoid of inside your
faculties and measurement that's
Achaisiy.
And it permeates Reiyosiy which is the
avoid of the avoid of inside the beyond
your measurement of your inside the
roof.
And then you reach Yichudiy which is the
deepest form of gaze. As I will begin
this Tamasi. Now something new emerges.
What's Tamasi?
Now suddenly it's revealed that it's not
just you need me.
It's I need you.
Tamasi, you're my Tamasi, you're my
most.
You're my most. In measure
Tamasi is from the word tu umasi, my
twin.
Which twins are like equal.
Like shutfin. We we're twins, we're
equal. There's not one twin superior.
So what's what's this what's this what's
this tamasi over this?
Yainusi even yainusi yainusi we're
glued. We're glued to each other.
But now here ultimately, yeah,
comes the big big question and that is
so much of life is dealing
with the person's separate separation
dealing with the person's anxiety or
challenges. So that's the nikuda of
tamasi. Tamasi is
that it's not just about your surrender
deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper.
It's tamasi. There's something at stake
in your existence.
In your taking agency, in your taking
responsibility, in your avoyda, in your
separateness that that's what makes a
dida batachtoinim. You are that one. You
are the shutif.
You're the partner.
Huh? Full partnership. Full partnership.
>> [snorts]
>> It's you it's you becoming the master.
It's you owning it.
So avada there's mesiras nefesh this
pishkili d'achai sirah yosi yainusi the
deepest deepest bittle. And then there's
tamasi that the shleimus is in you being
you and doing your avoyda dida loya is
bada batachtoinim
in you with your existence.
That's the tamasi.
Yeah.
Not just you still exist.
It's it's it's your existence that makes
it complete. Tamasi. You are my
completion.
My completion. K'v'yochol as he says
yesh tzad k'v'yochol. There's a need to
pull us out of tachtoinim l'maseh
d'achalta tichsof.
It's not just your achei timsa to go
more bittle more bittle more bittle more
bittle until you reach the deepest
bittle which k'v'aldik.
So that's the highest. He says there's
now there's one more thing. And that is
now go home.
Huh.
You [clears throat] are shut up.
Yeah.
You understand why this is deeper than
your inner self?
Cuz this is not where you're connected
to God. This is where you are divine.
This is where I trust you
to be able to take this on. I trust you.
I give you a piece of myself. Now you
become autonomous. Till now you're
looking for connecting. I want to
connect, connect, connect. It's like
what we learned in Boston Lagana. That
the deepest connection is in your
separateness. That's where you're
connected.
In the part of you that's not me. How
could you be connected over there?
Because you are me.
If you're not me, so then you have to
surrender and surrender and surrender
and surrender until we fuse your inner
self. And there's no deeper fusion than
that. And now I'm telling you you got
this.
You're a base.
It's a human keeper. Why? Cuz you embody
it. What is it? You're a shut up.
So it's not your separateness is not a
mistake. Your separateness is the whole
purpose. That's
if there was no separateness there's NO
EVERYTHING IS INSIDE. IT'S ABOUT IT.
AND THE TIME OF being inside there's no
deeper time than your inner self.
But there's something now even deeper.
And that is
I need you. I need you. In other words,
IF YOU'RE GOD
YOU'RE NOT FULFILLING YOUR PURPOSE. THEN
GOD doesn't need you. GOD HAS GOD.
GOD HAS GOD. GOD HAS GOD. GOD HAS GOD.
GOD has God. He has God. You're not
going to add to his God.
So what are you going to give him?
You're going to give him your humanness.
You're going to give him your struggle.
You're going to give him your
genuineness. You're going to give him
your authenticity. You're going to give
him your pain. You're going to give him
your realness as a human being. That's
what you can give him.
So I have that you first need a
cuz if not I'm trapped in my ego.
But once I have that
yeah.
Now the deepest thing is you being you.
I'm now drinking a cup of water and so
forth.
So that that that you also know this
happening within the container of a
human being. That's the Tamasi.
You're my twin. You're my twin. We're in
this together. I represent the ain't so
if you represent really we're one.
You're ain't so if we're all one.
But the part of the ship from have
different jobs. You manage the company
I'm the investor. So God SAYS I'M THE
INVESTOR BUT YOU'RE managing the
company.
Day-to-day headaches.
Right? I INVESTED BUT YOU'RE MANAGING
THE company and I'm we're short from
that's it.
And I trust you. Yeah.
How it works out in business you'll
figure it out but that's the new quota.
Huh?
Yeah.
So that's the Tamasi.
So you're type of so this is deeper than
everything else.
LOOK AT IT THE DEEPEST PART is fusion.
He says no.
Because and we could understand that
because of the task is fusion there was
fusion before creation much better.
Well in a married couple you have
partnership because you have the full
Yeah. Yeah. Sometimes you have sometimes
you don't. So in a way in the
separateness there's a deeper connection
but it doesn't look like it.
Because here it's not that I surrender
everything and I'm part of you. Here
it's that even in my separateness I'm
one with you.
That's Tamasi. I need you. I need you
cuz there's something in you that I
don't have THAT'S YOUR SEPARATENESS.
THIS IS what you add to the equation by
by you not being me.
That's a partner. There's something that
you that you bring to the world that you
bring to this whole relationship and
that's because this Avasham to do it
Tachtonim, that's the deepest desire.
And you're the one who facilitates that.
So I could look at my separateness as
detachment, or I could look at it as the
shut face
the partnership that I bring.
I'm managing the company and this
company is Tachtonim.
So that's the Tachtonim. Yeah, I'm the
one who runs that show.
That's the Tamasi.
The not so alien of Tachtonim happens
through the person.
It's and this answers something else.
It's very nice.
Everybody knows that they have a moment
of
a moment of a moment of yeah. You could
work for a lot of years and if you have
a one moment you're lucky.
So it's like almost like
it could be like you could get cynical
about it. But that's the word that
Tamasi redeems everything because Tamasi
means your shut face is coming because
it's you being you. It's in the
separateness where you become a partner.
Realizing that it's not real
separateness. It's part of the fusion.
That's the Tachtonim. It's not real
separateness.
Here I trust you. I trust the you to be
able to do it.
This is where I need you not as me.
So that's what a shut face is. That's
why he says like this
and that's the Tamasi. You're my twin.
You're my slowness.
And my slowness means that without this
there's no completion.
Really? Why why not? Ain't safe. Ain't
safe is not perfect. Ain't safe is
perfect. Ain't safe is flawless. Ain't
safe is impeccable. How can Ain't safe
need something?
How could you be my shut face?
You could say I'm giving you a
that's not the word.
The answer is cuz ultimately you don't
tell Ain't safe what to be what not to
be and the deepest Ain't safe in its
core
of
the relationship the connection in a
real way with someone outside of it, at
least in its own perception, is negates
everything.
But believe by Allah, like we learned in
the mind of put him. Mordecai trusted
Esther and she could go.
Once once Esther learned who she was,
now she could already change the whole
world and that's what she did. The
moment you know who you are, everything
changes.
Okay,
we'll finish the mind tomorrow morning,
8:00 Monday morning.
Yeah.
