A Meditation to calm the Animal Soul. A new Kabbalah class by Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz

welcome to our class and to this we're going to be learning a beautiful hasidic discourse from the river the rebbe said the specific discourse on wednesday parshas pinchas which was the 16th day of the month of tammuz in the year tough shin lamed hey 46 years ago a week later on tuesday of parsons mata maasai the rebels certified and edited the specific discourse the name of this discourse is called ach ah it's based on a verse in this week's torah portion and the mind begins with ah when the jewish people went into the land of israel they had to divide up to the land between the tribes so the way it was divided up based on this verse is they used a rule they used a lottery to divide up the land to figure out which tribe gets which part of the land of israel in other words the dividing up of erita koidesh the holy land of israel that they conquered which was called eret's kanam beforehand and they turned it and they transformed it from eretz quran to eret israel up to the point as we know when the jewish people were in their desert even before they came into the line of israel what does it say in reference to the land of israel the famous verse in the rubber always quotes um allah the land that hashem's eyes are on it from the beginning of the year to the end of the year so obviously we're dealing with a holy land a safe land so the land this land this holy land how is it divided it was the divided through something which is called the rule a lottery to add into it so the verse the terror also says alpi hashem what does it mean about hashem because the lottery wasn't lp hashem was based in the lottery and the answer is ramsay says it was done but the way the land of israel was divided up was al-pi hashem and rashid explains it means it was done by ruralist by divine inspiration so that's so that's really we see two components the way to divide the land one is through a glorious lottery and the other one was alpi hashem through there's another component to dividing up the land as the torah says clearly the rav tarban for a bigger tribe you gave a bigger piece of the land and for a smaller tribe you gave a smaller part of the land now when you start dividing something based on bigger and smaller and more and less that's not a lottery that's not that is alpiseiko intellect you're making an intellectual calculation who gets more who gets less in other words the simple understanding of the wrath of tarbed it means for a bigger tribe you give more it's a rashi explains and we know rashi is pretty micro simple way to explain the verse which means that a tribe that had a bigger amount of people they gave a bigger a bigger part of the land and so something a division which is based on logic is called intellect now the rubber says even though the ramban argues on this comp this uh inside of rashida was divided up based on the amount of people in the tribe um but nevertheless the ramban understands rashid mean literally divide up based amount of people now there's other commentaries on rashi um but the fact is that even when the people that argue the ramban holds the rashi holes that it was divided based on the amount of people in other words even those that argue they're arguing against the position of rashi but the fact is the simple meaning in the verse and the irashi explains it and the other commentaries are free is that the division of the land was based on the amount of people which again brings back to the same point that was divided based on an intellectual calculation in other words so what is what what do we have so far when it came to dividing up the land of israel eritsakoides there were three components one is a lottery the second one is divine inspiration and the third is based on intellect that's three different ways the land of israel was divided up now so what does that mean so it's interesting is very brings down that this that the land of israel is divided by a lottery so he brings in that samarth sadaq the third khabad rabbah and he explains based on acidic discourse of the altareba based on a story in the talmud that natalma is a famous story in the talmud from zakah zaka as he was getting older and he was facing his mortality facing the day he was going to die so he said derek i don't know where they're going to take me am i going to go to granada am i going to go to the garden of eden am i going to go get henny am i going to go to heaven am i going to go to hell where am i going to that's what it says in the talmud so the question is everybody knows he did not walk even four cubits without learning torah and without wearing trillion and for 80 years he learned and he taught other people so what's the question where is he going to it's obvious he's going to the nation it's obviously he's going to heaven so the altar explains that his struggle and his debate i don't know where i'm going wasn't from technical yeah he learned and he put on twilight and he taught other people and he and he was a god-fearing person but he's talking about from his etzema nephesh from the source of his soul in other words this calculation we made that's an intellectual calculation but he was talking from this estimate f which is above a calculation so therefore he said any idea in other words even though i learned torah and but the fact is learning terrorist tamvadas that's intellect that's intellect that's reason that's logic but how do i know about above logic where i'm going now so in the level of above logic the myeloma there's also a component of reward and punishment serving serving hashem from the essence of your soul because the fact is we see your beaker and zach said any day you know it's from the level of my depths of my soul i don't know because you see that there's any there's a concept the reward and punishment in other words it's so it's obvious that even in the level of eczema nephesh above logic we have the ability to follow god or god for me not to follow god in other words so there is even the level of the etzema nephesh there is an avoid the way to serve hashem which affects the atomic fs that the the serving hashem from the essence of our soul should be appropriate you know this is the external part of our life we learn we pray we do mitch voice that affects us externally but even the essence of our soul we have to feed and that affects we're the essence of our soul standing now ever says this idea of the essence of our soul and the avoider the work our spiritual service of serving hashem from the essence of our soul that's called goyron so the sermon explains based on the altar based on the story in the talmud what is gairul the way we connect to hashem with our etz where we serve hashem with our etzeman fish so based on this that tamika explains that the division of the land alpia goeru practically is referring to the way we serve hashem from the atsam hanafesh now so therefore is going to explain now more in depth the connection from these three components in other words the lottery which affects our network networks what we just learned the way we serve hashem and kulukasari so there's three components in in the lottery the way it affects our soul where it first when we serve hashem and the way the land is divided now i never explained to this the fact is as follows everything that exists in the world is found in the jewish people and specifically in the part of the world which is connected to the jewish people like there's a famous meijer hazal that says when hashem originally created the world so he created a big world so hashem divided into different lands and hashem chose from the different lands that he divided up he chose the eret israel the land of israel and he chose to to give it as a gift to the jewish people so therefore the meadow says the jewish people shall come to their inheritance that heritage all and they should inherit it because that's inheritance hashem gave us and therefore hashem gave the land of israel and its quran at that time to avraham avinu for him and for his children for an everlasting inheritance why because it was originally created when someone created the world and he divided up the lands he divided up everything for the jewish people so different naturally he gave it to brahmaville to give to his to his children and his grandchildren until today now so since the land of israel isn't just a piece of real estate it's a it's a the land that hashem created it's the part that hashem sectioned off and the part that hashem gave to the jewish people so it's a deep connection it's not an external connection you're probably piece of real estate in any part of the world it's real estate it's not really you the land of israel and the jewish people are one it was divided by hashem and was given from hashem and hashem is infinite so it's a real gift it's an internal gift so based on that anything that goes on in the land of israel is directly connected to the jewish people and the same thing also anything that goes on with a jewish person is connected to the land of israel now so since when it came to the land of israel and it came to conquering as we call it eretz kanan and we had to make it out just for all the land of the jewish people what happened there were three things that happened and as we we conquered the land now we have to divide it up so every tribe has their place in the land of israel so we said we learned before there were three ways it was divided something which is called a goyal a lottery there's divine inspiration and sacral intellect and as we explained that you gave more to one tribe one to less and less to another tribe and so on and so forth so that's what that's what happened when they divide up the land of israel so it's self understood that these three components the lottery divine inspiration rural creators and intellect affects the jewish people on a spiritual level as well it was even the component where you gave more to one tribe less to another tribe since that is involved in the way they divided up the land of israel and the land is really only a piece of it's a physical it's a it's a physical entity it's only the body which is basically not necessarily the most important thing the most important thing is in the summer our souls so how much more so that the vision that we they divided intellectually applies to us as well now since the ultimate goals of jewish people and what's our goal what's our what's our purpose as it it says in the talmud ani neveresi le shamesh koini every one of us have to say why are we created why why doesn't put us here we were here we're here hashem created us so that we can serve hashem so since it's all about serving hashem so obviously all these three components roll whatever it means we will learn practically the lottery and koides and say hello intellect all applies for us practical ways to serve hashem and every one of these components in our service russia now so the question is what are these three ways to serve hashem koi rule a lottery how do we serving the lottery and koi dish and seiko so deborah explains as follows they says that it's explained it's been explained in the acidic discourses of the days of redemption of jude beijing gimmel thomas from the previous rubber that uh now we're actually we're coming now from the days of you basically given thomas that in the jewish people there are three levels based on a a verse in the prophets where it says that the jewish people are level number one is which means a spring from a garden that's one level the next level in the same verse says that they are coming from a um a spring of uh of of a well of live water and uh and afterwards it comes like it says in the torah alibaba law that the the the air should should get elevated to to the level of the noiseless where basically it drips down from lebanon but actually in a spiritual means it drips down noise constantly a word of muscle like like luck um that what is muscle so we know for example muscles much higher than the level of human beings intellect much much higher which that re that resembles the highest level resembles the idea of a guyrol a lottery and those again it's a recap so there's three levels that's explained that lent in the discourse for you based hammers the jewish people are compared to maya in a which is a very very high pure level which is the level of gogo what does that mean practically nice ideas right nice images a spring um [Music] a well of water um coming down from the dripping down from lebanon what does that mean practically i never explained to this the first level is called mayan ganem what is that what does that mean practically it's referring to the souls the way they are on high before they came down here those are the shamans are within us before in the summer is within our body it was a high in heaven so mayan ghanim the spring in the garden is referring to the arnold summers before they came down to this world now when arnold saw in high before they came down to this world they're called benoist yerushalayim the daughters of jerusalem why they called the daughters of jerusalem because jerusalem yerushalayim represents completion and all for hashem again yerushalayim jerusalem what does it mean complete or for hashem and like there are brings from the talmud in the in the in where twice there's a commentary in talmud says like this that you're shalaying why is it why what's the name yerushalayim it actually comes from two words jira or and shall incomplete and based on this actually when you spell it when you write yerushalayim so you'd raise verb shin lamid and you don't put the yud between the lamin and the men mem because basically it's yura or and shaolin complete the complete awesome for hashem now so there for the souls that are on high before they come down to this world they're called benoist the daughter of your shalom walkers what does the islam mean the completion of offer hashem so when the souls are on high they represent that the daughter of a child of the complete offer hashem that's the first level so again mayan ghanim is a reference the way that the souls are on high before they come down they're called the noise the daughters of the complete offer hashem that's the first the first thing what's main the well of living water that's already referring to the way the souls come down into this world and they actually come into the body into a physical body just like the um the the stream of water the well where's the well found it's found in the in the depth of the earth you have to dig to get to the well now so the fact is like this in the summer on this level is when the shrama comes down to this world just like the bay miami which is in the earth so you're going to say one second why isn't trump coming into the world if the shaman was on high it was bernoulli's racial i am why is it coming down here so we all know the rubber explains because the arena it's a urethra it's definitely a downgrade but the purpose of the downgrade is so after it should be a tremendous upgrade in other words when the nashama comes down here and it does its work it means all the obstacles and challenges and distractions but nevertheless it remains loyal to hashem so then the neshama actually gets elevated more than before the urethra so there's before the neshama was unhigh he was benigelium one with hashem with the ua of hashem it comes down to this world he has to struggle fight to keep the judaism alive but when it overpowers and overcomes a struggle what happens then then the shaman gets actually elevated even to higher than before it came down to this world so based on this trevor brings another verse from the prophets it says as follows a beautiful verse i am black black shaira black vanava however i'm beautiful but no yes yerushalayim in other words what what is the verse saying so never explains that the souls that come down here to come into our body and to get involved with the animal soul they tell to the souls on high which are called the noise jerusalem and they tell them as follows beautiful even though even though i'm black why am i black because i come down to this world to this physical world and a world which is which means hashem is not revealed and there's no place like this world where hashem is the least revealed where hashem is concealed so what happens is if hashem is concealed hashem is not revealed so what happens the light's off if the light's off so we're dark so therefore i'm i'm i'm dark why am i dark cause there's no light here but nevertheless even though that i'm dark i'm sorry i'm dark the light's off but specifically specifically from the darkness the darkness makes me vanava makes me so beautiful why because through the darkness i'm able to be elevated higher than bernay syracuse higher than before i came down in other words just like when you have the water water doesn't start in the well but the water goes into the earth and through the fact that the water goes through the earth through the veins of the earth which which um conceal and hide the water we don't see the water it's underneath the earth but when it goes through the earth it actually becomes purified up until it's cold actually bear mayam khayyam before it goes into the earth it's not called miami it's not called living waters it's water when it goes into the earth and it comes out then it's called the air a well of living waters in other words it's actually gets elevated higher than a spring so spring is basically the water before it goes into the earth beautiful but when it goes into the earth it becomes bare and it comes back higher my my my inner is not called crying it's called mayam ghanim a spring is not called mayamkayam only when it goes into the earth doesn't get elevated like there are brains from the mishnah the mission says as follows that specifically living waters that come through the earth which is not a mayan a spring but specifically the water that goes through the earth it has the power and the ability to purify someone that is impure from the highest levels of impurities up to the level if someone get becomes impure with coming in contact with a dead person which is called in hebrew avi the highest level of impurity so what has the power to to purify someone the water that went through the earth so the same thing also gives it applies to our soul that when the soul comes down into this world and it comes into the body and it comes into the animal soul which conceals and hides the light of the neshama the way it's revealed before it came down to the body so when the shrama does its work through the expression of khafuru sarim that we dig sarim um the officers dig karu and divyam they open up the the elitists of the people what does that mean that the the fear of the digging and the kriya and going and going through the process of of of doing the refinement which that means what does that mean practically for the soul which means taking off all the concealments of the of the body of the animal soul which covers up in the lighter than the summer just like when you dig a whale you have to give to dig and you have to open it up etc and you take away the earth which is covering up in the water and all of a sudden wow you have the water so the same thing also when a person does his avery then when we do our avoider we get to the end and the shaman starts shining even before it like came down to this world so what does that mean practically so by earth you want let's say you want the water which is underground so you dig the earth and the water comes out you have miami so how do we how do we take arnasham out from the covering up of the of the of the body and of the animal soul and derby explains very simple what's our void how do we do that there's two things number one is it says khafarua surim sarim is like a an officer what does that mean it's referring to their void of his bonus a sire is someone that thinks when a person meditates when you think that's how you're bringing someone out from the concealment of the body and the concealment of the animal soul so the first avoiding is his blindness you have to meditate the second avoid is working with your emotions that your emotions should be dedicated to hashem like it's called the devayam the generous people of the nation which is a an attribute of medicine of emotions so the two are voyages that we could do and we should do to bring out an ashama and from its concealment from the body and the animal soul is is burning us meditation and working on our attributes working on working on our emotions they should be dedicated to ourselves more refined and when a person does their avoid meditation working on the middle east then you come to practicality of sur mera you go away from evil you don't do negative but i say to you you're busy with positive stuff in reality not in theory in other words when we do our avoider he's blaming us we meditate and we work our emotions we stay away from negative which is a tremendous gift and then we're involved with positive which even which you know a bit bigger gift and when a person does the avoider of his buenos and working on your emotions and then you do surme ravi asaytov gets elevated higher than before it even came down and in the summer it goes into the category of living waters which is higher than a mayan much higher level up until you come to the level of the noise limit levonoin that comes down from lebanon which means it goes to the highest and the purest price places and based on this never explains in other words i'm black but i'm beautiful in other words specifically because i'm black specifically because i came down to this world and only because of that i'm able to become vanava really really beautiful now where do we have the strength to do it where does the the shaman have the strength to deal with the struggles and the challenges of the body in the animal soul that comes from our source on high 100 percent and that's why we s the banana israel says [Music] i'm black but i'm beautiful who do they say to bernie sanders because the power that the neshama has which is in the body to to transform itself out of the blackness and to be beautiful it actually comes through the help of the sun which is in the body which is from the from the source on high from bananas to your saline so another s struggle i reach beauty but how do i have the strength from benoit through shall i am that gives me a strength to stay strong and this way once i get to the struggle i can really become even greater and more brighter than the way that the summer came down into this world so based on this river explained something very interesting very powerful that we find when when when the jewish people had the bear they had the the the the well um for the 40 years they were in the desert but the song that they sang ali behr and allah they only said it after 40 years in the desert but they ever asked what do you mean they received it right in the beginning right in the beginning of 40 years and roshi says that they received it right away why why did they wait 40 years to sing shira and whoever explains because it's very very very powerful very important point because they receive the ray right away 40 years later they thank hashem they sing a song and they're explaining like this because the jewish people that were in the desert even though they're called der deya the generation of tremendous knowledge and like it's explained you know kabbalah the the tremendous you know uh value and the tremendous high levels of the jewish people that were in the desert and as they were called the shambles souls from they were souls from the world of thought a very high level in other words even when they were in this world they were connected to the world of thought but nevertheless because there's pros and cons and everything because they were so high and because they were even in this world they were connected to allah they didn't have the quality and they didn't have the gift of of the well of living waters and the noise even the higher level why because this gift of being able to be a behemoth i am a well of living waters and the noiseless even a higher level that happens when you transform physicality when you transform the physical world but if you're in here in this world and you're still connected it's great it's wonderful a very high level but you're not going to reach bay miami you're not going to reach the nursing home of online so that's why the song that the jewish people saying ali bayer and allah they only said it when they're ready to go into the land of israel at the end of 40 years right before they went into the heritage role why because what is that what does heritage always represent what is the land of israel it represents going leaving the desert where everything is taking care of you engaging in a physical materialistic world and specifically when you engage in the materialistic physical world are you able to elevate the world real world and then you reach the level of the land is not only good but it's very good when does the land become very good very very good when you're willing to do the avoider now so the the so the since the jewish people that were ready to go into the land of israel they went and self-sacrifice because it's easier to be in the desert but they went in self-sacrifice and they had a tremendous will to go into the land of israel which is good which is abundant and so and specifically at the end of 40 years that they had all the preparations to go into the land of israel and already they had they were able to conquer the land of israel of eretz which is the beginning of going into the land in israel so it's not only the preparation but they actually started to go into land of israel because the fact is the land of sichu even has in reference to all has many many compared to it so therefore the end of 40 years specifically in the 40 years the jewish people received the tremendous miracles that affected them they should they say are they sing the song alibaba so here you see a very powerful point is that unfortunately you can have the greatest connection to hashem you can learn you can pray oil but really to connect and to be able to say shira and to and to elevate this physical world only comes when you engage in the world and then you struggle with the world then you will come and bear my name then you can have a noise and then you'll end up saying shira as we see unfortunately for 40 years they didn't say shira because they were in a different world they were disconnected from reality now nervous says this idea that the jewish people said shira how do they get to that level i mean they're sitting in the desert had they get to the level they were able to finally say shiro so the representative they had they were able to get to the level to be able to say shiro it came because of massey bernay israel for the jewish people traveling and the verse actually says right before that mishom nasu from there they traveled by achino when they encamped arnold okay newmar when did they start saying it after there was a traveling in other words the traveling was the inspiration that inspired them to see the work do the work and to be able to say shira like we see the rubber says that generally the whole idea of toyora mitzvos learning torah and doing mitsvice how does it happen it happens when traveling from sitting on one spot you're not learning torah you're not doing mitch voice you have to move you have to learn more do more another mitzvah traveling moving that will create a drive to learn and to learn more and to do moments voice and whoever says something very powerful as we see clearly this idea of traveling that means movement uh we see it specifically when it came to mountain to europe hashem gave them to be saw the torah so what does it say by ye read hashem hashem was so to speak on high even though hashem was all over but in the revealed way and hashem came down what does that mean when it came to giving beneath all the torah what had to happen hashem to travel hashem traveled what did he say to moisture baynu that represented the jewish people hashem says come up to me to the mountain which basically is a reference to moshe technically but he represents all the jewish people the jewish people have to travel so you see hashem traveled and moisture abandoned traveled so the rabbit said the same thing also that's the avoided the work of every single jew that and we see specifically where did the whole journey of the jewish people when our marines start what was the first thing that's recorded on toy rashan tells him you have to leave you got to travel from your land of the place you're born your parents home which means you have to leave your natural comfort zone you have to leave everything that you're comfortable with you have to leave your natural environment and w is actually a strong language and the gases the coarseness of it nature and consistency comfort tone is course you got to move out of it and like the writer says that in the in the reverend hashaba explains at length if you want to go into this concept more at length the other shot explains this in in the in in the discourse near tougher islamic all the details of arts but again it doesn't go into here so we're not going to discuss it right now but you see there's a lot the point is you have to move you got to move out of any comfort zone that you're in but split what if so but the other hand it's who wants to move it's easier to stay where you are and he was saying you know you got to move you got to you got to get out of your comfort zone i'm finally comfortable no we got to move finally settling down no we have to move but the episodes now what happens is specifically when you start moving when you're comfortable and you go out of your natural state then the terrorist says i'm going to bless you for god i'm going to make your name great you're going to be a blessing and now that the whole world is going to be blessed by you everyone's going to call you a blessing why because traveling going out of your comfort zone will bring tremendous blessings and whoever says this now this was where i've run when judaism started but now we're gonna fast forward to to the ultimate the ultimate goals we all want the tremendous revelation the revelation was going to be when mashiach reveals himself and we know mashaykh is going to reveal himself intestinal prophets that that idea that all the nations of the world is going to be blessed by you and through you so that's going to be in a revealed way and the ultimate completion is going to happen when mashiach comes and remember quotes the prophets where it says which means when shia comes the whole world are going to call with one voice in one hashem so that's what we want we all want the ultimate when everyone's going to recognize hashem in the world there's going to be unity there's going to want this it will be love there's going to be peace and happiness but this revelation of what mashiach is going to come has how can we bring it about unfortunately it says it comes through the goddess it comes through exile exile brings gula galos brings gula you want to have gula unfortunately you need gullis first and just like for example the song of aliba and law when the jewish people entered into land of israel had that happened rubber said by us traveling we had to travel first so the same thing also when it comes to the ultimate shira what's the ultimate shira shiro la shem shir khadas we're going to sing to hashem song which incidentally is the is it was the capital of the uh of the frida kareba of his youth base thomas obviously in tashanam and hey but but but the point is that that's referring to the song of the gula the song of the ultimate redemption and that's why gabba says it says sheer khadas it doesn't say hey we would have been in a feminine expression but it says which is basically male male is more a stronger type of a song shir khadas a strong song the male force why because the gula asida the ultimate redemption which is the complete redemption and the everlasting redemption which means is never going to be goalless afterwards you know the good news is once mashiach comes it's over it's never going to happen again we'll never never be back in gullahs but that happens unfortunately the redemption comes specifically only after the gulles that we are in now where's the gullets come from and whoever explains the whole idea of gullus the whole idea of exile is compared but it actually comes from the initial exile because initially hashem created the world was beautiful and he said don't touch from the eighth hadas and unfortunately they ate from the nation us so what happened hashem sent us out of the uh of the of the garden of eden which happened to the tadas and so the source of goddess is from that original where shem sent us out that's where angel is today and orphan it represents even before that there was actually there was already a process of goddess before that what was the process before that's when hashem created the world so the the sun and the moon were the same size and then one complained hey right kind of the same size wants to be bigger so shawn was told the the moon fine you you you think it should be one for you smaller and one bigger so you'll be smaller so in other words already from that started gullis you know if if if that didn't happen it would have been full of light the some would have shown the moon with a strong light would have been good but all of a sudden it was a mid so the mia the diminishing of the light causes tilt today to diminishing the light the ghosts that win now so you can say wow we have this tremendous gullis but you have to remember the positive side that this urethra this idea that we're in gullis where god is concealed um with god is not revealed what's the purpose it was what's the intent what was the reason for the gulles and like the um the uh the uh the the mitila explains at length based on the verse where it says and he says like this that the whole reason for the urethra the whole reason for the concealment so that there should be a tremendous alley a tremendous elevation and a tremendous completion of the jewish people so that you read this you look at the urethra is your either but the purpose that you read if you look deep inside is that we can have a tremendous profit afterwards in other words so through the urea there will be a tremendous elevation and completion not only the jewish people but as say there is sauceless in every part of the world and all the spheres and all the worlds etc but it starts where where does the elevation start in this physical world this physical world which is so low with hashem is most concealed in the remainder there's no low place there's no concealment like in this world and trevor explains based on a analogy of a a a a lever what's a lever so for example if you have a house and you want to pick up a house so you you have a big house you can't pick it up from the top because you're going to miss half the house so you have to put the lever on the lowest part of the house and when you pick up the lowest part the whole house gets elevated so if you want to elevate the house you can't just elevate from the top because what's going to the bottom but on the other hand when you when you think of if you elevate the top part of the house only top gets out of the way not the bottom but if you elevate from the bottom the bottom gets elevated and the whole house gets elevated so the same thing most of us does follow the same thing also when it comes to elevating all the worlds that when you elevate this world then not only is this where elevated all the worlds get elevated and an elevation off the charts off the charts elevation like the rubber explains i could explain in the in the in the acidic discourse of your base thomas of the balagula that when we say la mata which means where hashem is concealed odd ain't hackles like lowest of the lowest that affects the highest of the highest so by elevating the lowest to the lowest the urethane the lowest to lowest and we elevate the lowest level we actually create the elevation not only the lowest level we actually create the elevation in the highest level so based on this trevor explains a famous saying of the of the friday who is uh we're celebrating his celebration from going out of uh um going out of golos going out of uh imprisonment going out of being in exile he was freed so he says as follows that only the body went into goddess only the physical body went to bellas the neshama never went into goddess the soul never went into ghosts that's his famous famous statement only the body wanted to go that's not the neshama so they ever asked a simple question one second we know it says in the talmud that gallus mediocre is concealed it does affect our intellect it does affect our understanding and how much more so this affect our understanding not just comprehending uh math or other things but it help helps it affects our understanding of knowing what to have clarity when we learn mishna talmud and more importantly we want to have a clear halacha we want to know jewish law clearly gullis affects us so the so that's the case goals affects learning and allah and we know that's how we connect hashem so what does it mean when the freedom grabber says that gullis only affected our body it didn't affect our soul the fact that we see does affect our soul so one of the explanation ever says is based on um what it says in the talmud and tractate um aravind it says like this the question is about something whether it's temporary or a temporary or if it's permanent so it says so it says in the talmud as follows since the verse says hashem when they when they encamped when they when they set up encampment in the camp why they stopped so we know it's they stopped to stop when they travel hashem said to travel so when they encamped was because hashem said and when they traveled because assam said now so let's say they encamped only for a short period of time so you can say they only have a short period of time so talmud says no because the reason why they encamped they camp they set up camp because hashem told them to stop hashem told them to set up camp even if it was a a short period of time the talmud used the expression command the kavia lu dummy it's just like they set up for a long time why because when you do something out p hashem even though it's for a short time it has tremendous strength and strenuous power in other words anytime you're doing something that hashem is telling you to do so in this case you're camping hashem told you so even though it's for a short period of time it's considered if it's for a long period of time so based on the service explains as follows the same applies to gullives to exile why are we in exile we chose to be in exile no worst idea ever but hashem chose us to be an exile now in exile hashem is not revealed hashem is concealed when we learn torah and we do mitch voice we're lacking the clarity but even though we're lacking the clarity here but why are we lacking the clarity who made it murky who made it where it's not clear hashem made the gullahs so since hashem made the gullahs and really we would love to learn terror and have the full clarity we would love to do mitsu and see the connection unfortunately we're in godless we don't see it but who created that ability that's not so clear hashem made the gullahs so therefore since hashem made the gullahs and we're learning terrible ignorance we would love to do it a hundred percent hashem somehow dim the light so therefore when we learn toe run we do mitzvahs in dollars whatever level we're doing it at it's considered kavia and it's considered it's everlasting powerful so in other words based on he's explaining like this what are the predicaments say only the bodies went into gullus i what do you mean the souls are on goals we don't have clarity who gave us the lack of clarity hashem so therefore if it's not a hundred percent it's not a hundred because hashem made the gulles so our fifty percent is a hundred is a hundred percent our twenty percent whatever whatever we're doing based on the gifts that hashem gave us you know based on the clarity and the unclarion gave us it's a hundred percent because that's hashem hashem this one decided to dim the lights now i never saw like this very powerful this component that was saying that when we do we learn toy when we do mitch voice it's a hundred percent to the power even though technically you can say it's not but since hashem dim the light so so therefore it's a hundred percent for us and represents it's not a it's not a hook it's not like a statue where you can't comprehend it because you can even explain it never sound like this you're going to explain it first servers are going to explain to the nephesho kiss and he said like this even the godly soul gets it why because we know the altar writes in tanya that when a person learns torah so you create a union through learning torah and through dingman's voice that when you're learning torah and you do a mitzvah the union that you connect with hashem is it's everlasting in other words and this everlasting connection on high is also down here so anytime someone learns terror down here anytime someone does a mitzvah you're creating a unity with hashem now past present future always and absolutely kiss gets it that's for the never shoulder kiss a godly view that when you learn terror you do mitch voice boom you connect to the infinite forever who sees that and every single kiss sees that but you gotta deal with the nervous bahamas that animal soul doesn't see that sort of explains you can also explain this idea to our nervous bahamas as well it's now a token effort or bahamas talk it sounds like this knows first of all he says you have to explain to the animal soul why because the whole purpose of learning torah is that through the sacral the intellect of the nepheshola kiss so the because we know that godly soul has the intellect and emotions and the animal cells intellectual emotions when you learn torah you can start with the godly soul seeing it but the goal is that the godly souls intellect should explain it to the animal souls intellect that the animal soul's influx should also comprehend this powerful union what so how do you explain to the animals only never explains like this a different explanation the regardless all we explained that when you learn terry the mitzvahs boom you're connected the godly soul sees that the animals say you talk differently and it was like this what was the reason why hashem created a urethra means hashem concealed it concealed himself and made in a physical world hashem is concealed it's not because hashem wanted to hide god forbid the urethra and the challenges and the struggles we have is the purpose is latoya khalil so that should be a tremendous elevation now so it's self-understood who's the one that made the urethra so hashem is just like he can make a urethra a concealment could he make a aliyah 100 just like he's the ones in charge of the urethra he's in charge of the allele so therefore when there's a reader that hashem made it's not like it's never going to turn around hashem made the urethra so to speak conceal himself and hashem will reveal himself and the concealment the purpose of the concealment is for the revelation so therefore do you read that surya khalil when there's a concealment so that should be a great elevation afterwards that's a complete avoider in other words if you think about the whole idea of the urethra if you look with a microscope into the urethra into the concealment what do you see you see that actually the elevation afterwards if you just look right now okay oh my gosh concealment i get it but look deep into the concealment is this real or something maybe they can see them once on the screen elevation so if you're able to look deep into the concealment you're going to see the elevation take it a step further and deeper since we know that hashem is good he's the essence of good and the nature of good is to do good and as we say the nature of good is to do good because we're giving the name nature's hashem right which is concealment so therefore this hashem chose the urethra and a tremendous urethra why did hashem do this why did hashem who's good and wants to do good creating your either and there was something very powerful because the only way to reach a tremendous aliyah is only through the urethra notice if you have an aliyah then the shaman was before and high it's on high hashem wants to shove it to go higher you can't take it higher so it has to have a urethra and again the purpose of the urethra is for the aliyah and the only way it can have the alia higher than before us through the urethra so since the trauma is good and he wants to do good so when you look at your reader what do you see you can stop and just focus on your reader and then you're going to be like whoa what's this read all about but you can pull back look at the big picture hashem is creating this reader okay what is the purpose that you read this so that it can go down and then go up and go up higher than before and drama says like this this meditation that your reader is tell effects on the animal soul we're not talking godly soul effects on the animal soul that the animal soul should become wow think about that every one of us can calm our animal souls by this meditation by meditating that the urethra whether it's a personal struggle a family struggle a global struggle that who's the one that's creating the urethra who's allowing it to happen hashem why is he allowing it to happen because the only way to have an ali is through a year either and the animal soul gets it the animal so buys it for example you invest in a business what happens to your investment it's gone so why do you invest in the business if the money's gone for the profit that's going to come afterwards so if you're short-sighted you're not going to invest in any business why i don't want to lose my money but if you know yeah you're losing it's going to be spent on different things but afterwards you have a tremendous profit so if you look at the big picture you realize no it's the best thing ever how you lost your money no because the profit's going to be used afterwards so that's the same way that the animal soul gets that animal souls invest in business all day long so the same way look at your struggles in life too personal family community the struggle is so you can have an elevation you should get your strength and and get over it and what happens is the animal soul calms down it actually enjoys the ride so what happens on the river says is not only is the godly soul in not angolas but the animal souls not in gullis literally they're ever saying is this meditation will keep you calm the animal soul and will take you out of gullus because you're not going to look at the urethra as oh my gosh it's terrible you'll literally be able to leave gullis you better experience redemption by what realizing you read that surya khalia that will keep you calm and will take you out of ghosts because the fact is that the attributes and all the spheres of the animal soul even the intellect the whole dynamic of the animal soul even the intellect is complete because the fact is you're able to meditate on learning torah and you're able to have clarity in coming a a a clear halacha even in dulles why because when the animal soul has manuka it's calm you'll have clarity what did we learn before what's the issue they were free the government says that only the body went into gullis not the nashama so he said what do you mean but the fact is you don't have clarity yeah we don't have clarity because the the animal soul is driving us crazy but if you if you explain to the animal so guess what you read the torah khalil there's gonna be a huge profit so a it calms down and b now it's not in goalless and it's not in galaxy will have clarity in what it's learning and about to give proper advice on proper clarity so here you see clearly how through the proper meditation you can calm your nephesha bahamas you can take your nervous promise out of goddess and you'll have manuka which is a tremendous gift and you're about to have clarity and learning and you'll be able to give all you got to see clearly what hashem wants from us in the torah now the sophomore we learned two levels level number one is for the godly soul to realize when you learn torah you're connecting to the infinite fine and shaman gets it bahamas maybe just not plugged into that so jefferson fine now shawn's creepy plugged into the fact you read it sorry khalil that's the second thing but nader says why don't someone's not reach someone's not in that level someone's on that level in other words the person can't grasp and can't accept the explanation that the reason why i came down to this world and god's concealed i'm going through my struggles and i'm in tactics i have the deepest challenges and struggles and the truth is as we know the rubber says i mean we can understand the navigation bahamas the fact is we're living in times of on the heels before mashiach is coming and we're living in this wizard world which the the urethra the downgrade is huge and like derby says it's actually says in the talmud and it says in the talmud about the challenge before mashiach comes and the fact that everything even we see with our own eyes are challenges or open the news actually i'm not recommending it but if for those that watch the news or hear the news there's tremendous challenges in the world so but the fact is even though so this tremendous challenge that you're not willing to accept that uh the whole reason is for the aliyah afterwards right now i just can't you can't get over the fact that you're going to all these struggles now so what's so how do you deal with something like that never says like this don't you that's if someone doesn't get you read that sorry okay but the fact is there's an alia coming there's an elevation coming and we all have the ability and want and hope to get out of the mess let's say you're in a mess you're in you're in there either so could you think that it's possible to get out of it a hundred percent and can you hope for the best a hundred percent because you can't see your you can't see the arena as an alia but could you hope that there's going to be better days ahead 100 so when you start meditating and envisioning a better and a brighter future you know what happens river says and this is very powerful let's say you're going through a challenge a struggle okay and you don't see that any positive in the struggle okay but could you see that there's a possibility for a future could you see a possibility for for a miracle to happen a hundred percent should ever start thinking about that miracle start thinking about that better day now even though right now you're going through the struggle but as you start thinking about the better day and you're looking forward to it all of a sudden you're in that space when you're thinking about the future the bright future and you're in the bright future right now and like the rabbit brings in the balsham that says that the place where your thought is and where your will is that's where you are so even though you're sitting in a tight spot physically personally whatever level but you start with your mind thinking about the future thinking about a better tomorrow you're there now even though the fact is yes there's technical things external things which are bothering you and complicating things and it's concealing et cetera so how do you deal with it because you're trying to know what i'm saying is think positive go into a positive state service one second but i would love to do that i would love to within my struggles be in a positive space but i can't i just can't get out of out of the struggles i'm in services guess what there's an advice in the talmud it says like this and we'll explain according to cabal obviously ain't only dimly spoiled you want to pray elevator cleveland you have to be willing to be like a little humble that's what the talmud says so thereby explains this line from the talmud according to kabul and he says like this again ain't no english follow you want to pray want to pray the preparation you have to have coverage so first of all what is what is prayer we have to say what is prayer you want to pray you need clavidrage first what is prayer so ever says prayer is his conscious prayer is connection as we know it says in the talmud halawai we hope that a person should pray all day long what does that mean pray all day long i have other things to do to learn i got together family community there's things to do what does that mean you pray all day that means i should have the connection all day technically i can't pray all day but i want the connection all day just like during prayer when you pray or you're focused on that connection the connection is strong so i want that that connection i experience in prayer i should experience that correct connection all day as it says dial the flame we are told mate we should know in front we're standing we should always have the connection all day now how do so that would be amazing can you imagine all day you're connected hashem how do you have that so the the talmud says you're prepared by that by having coiva deutsch what does kovaris mean to get to that level and those clever rush as an introduction will obliterate all the things that are bothering you and you're about to have that connection how do you do that so it ever says based on a teaching from the magnet of misreach the market is explained as follows when it says cleveland royce what does that mean so he says it's the coveted of rush what does rush mean the beginning the beginning of the beginning so you want to get to prayer connection to hashem you need craving rush you need to connect to the ratio the beginning of the beginning what is that what's the beginning of the beginning so you have to meditate about your soul what's your soul your soul is literally a part of the infinite hashem now since ever says that the in the magnitude is rich he says it's a part of hashem now he doesn't use the word mamash literally and we see that the altar of entangle actually adds the word mamish literally so we're going to take us it says meditate on the fact that your soul comes from uh on place on high and the way the author explains it literally place in height literally is part of hashem now when a person meditates the fact that you're literally part of hashem guess what if you meditate whatever struggle you're going through you start thinking about the fact that my neshama my soul is and you really feel and connect to the fact that you are literally your soul is literally a part of the infinite hashem anything that's concealed anything that's bothering you it's all going to go away what's going to come out right then and there is your makshava your thought where you want to be we said before you want to be in this beautiful place we said you can't get there because you're stuck so take a moment think about the way your soul is connected infinite hashem and then you'll be able to use your mind and your thought to take you to the beautiful place and then when you're able to think that way you'll have a tremendous elevation because with all the struggles around you guess what you're going to be in the place where you want to be how you're going to do that by meditating first that your soul is part of the infant hashem now from the level of makshava because that's the power it's going to take you there from the level of a thought that's going to take you there to this beautiful place now makshava we know there's different levels to thought the main thought is in part of your soul which is above tam vedas if you start logically thinking that's not makshava raw thought roma is above intellect above logic literally going off the chart connecting with hashem the infinite hashem why is that because makshava our thought that is the essence of who we are our thought is who we are our thought is the most powerful gift that we have like there ever said when you have the makshava of great things that are happening to you they're going to happen to you all of a sudden all the problems go away again sometimes if you can't do it right away straight to makshava so you have to meditate the fact that hashama is someone high now why is makshaba so powerful siddharth brings a beautiful peace and a powerful priest from the zoyar kunesawya says like this human beings are called an adam adam man human being so the zarya says you autumn so ma is per is is is adam why is adam because other misspelled aleph one dollar four and mem 40 which is mem hey 45 so ma that's it's made up of two words you're thinking who's thinking ma what's ma you us what is makshava is when a human being thinks because that's who we are makshava who are we we are our thoughts if you ask yourself who are you think for a moment what you're your thoughts if you're thinking positive thoughts your whole everything about you is positive if you're thinking negative thoughts everything is going to be negative your thoughts that's who you are and that's why it's extremely important what you think about you think positive thoughts you think happy thoughts you're going to be happy the opposite i'm not going to mention what it is that's what you're going to go so the real power of a human being is our thoughts so our thoughts can take us out of any negative experience or situation when whatever you're going through try it start thinking positive thoughts guess what you're going to go adam you're going to start thinking that's where you're going to go you can't get access to your thoughts go back to koivedroish think of the beginning your soul is connected to the beginning of the beginning to show himself that will give you re-access to your thoughts once you re-access your thought then you can think anything you want now so your mokshava takes you to we're delivering to your soul which is above tamvadas above inflict once you connect to this powerful place through your mokshava then you bring those powerful thoughts into your intellect that even in your intellect you should comprehend that what that since we're in golis because hashem so we're so to speak in gods because of hashem and that's why we hear so the toy remittance that we're doing here is 100 perfect now whoever says take it a step further and he says like this this idea applies to our general serving hashem and there's three ways in general that we serve hashem what's the three ways we serve hashem so the first way we serve hashem is go away from negative go away from evil go away from anything bad away from anything critical and only be busy with good things two things because you're doing good things you're busy with negative stuff it's like a challenge it's not going to be clear so you want to do two things surma rock go away from negativity and i'll say tell you do good in reality and mice awake you have to do it in reality not just in thought literally stay away from anything negative stay with anything no good and be busy with good stuff so that's just like where we said in the way divide the line of israel that to a bigger tribe got a bigger piece of land the smaller tribe got a small piece of end in other words it means every single person according to what they need in other words every person has their personal void of sera how much negative they have to go away from and how much good they have to do so the first level of dividing up the land which is our spirit we're talking about a spiritual end first level is intellect which means figure out how much negative you have to get rid of and get rid of it as much as you can and more than how much positive that's the first level what's the next level above that the spiritual work of ruach hakoides how we divide the land through this and in the river says there's two levels in like we know that ruach divine inspiration in the spheres is actually the sphere of malchus the tenth spirit the lowest syria that's in one place it's brought down mrs that that that uh this is malcolm's lowest rule in other places explained and there were quotes from the uh different kasich discourse under ashab that ru hakoidesh is actually the first sphere of kohma why because from hakhma you've got ruacha koiders which goes down into malchus and like there gives an example where it says racist in the beginning and the bananas are base races there's two beginnings that there's two levels in the beginning there's a level the beginning you start or you start and base race just means that they're both connected are in one word in other words which means you have all this which basically means idea of ruha kurdish is all the levels from chakra down to malchus in your soul so the second level in conquering the land of israel is taking control of your midos and your and your intellect taking control of all the spheres starting from khakha down to malthus and everything in between that's the second level okay so the first one was intellect figuring out how much second one is all the spirits malhouse and the highest level is the goyal what's the avoid of goerl and there's two ideas never explains based on a a miami from the tarmac tadak that is two levels in in goyal what's going on which is above nature number one is faith living a life of a munna having faith in hashem and the second component is bitter to being humble before hashem both of these are above intellect a moon has faith above intellect and humility above intellect which basically it's two it's two extremes why because a muno faith is connected to which sphero it's connected to the sphere of malhus which is actually the lowest level bitly on the other hand above intellect is which is from the essence of your soul is connected even higher in intellect so faith is malhos is even higher than all the spheros it's above the spheres it knows when a person has a moon a person has faith and a person has little there's no question of which way are you going and for sure when a person has faith in hashem and a person is bottle he gives himself over to hashem he accepts everything from hashem it's a guarantee there ever says that they take him to give him all great and good things until the completion the highest level of goods until you see a la mercha you're going to see in your life tremendous powerful blessings it's going to be revealed to you that the land is going to be divided but guy rule and if we said goyal is the highest level through a moon but it's going to be not abstract but it's going to be the martin massa talking literally down into this world in the sharma beguof the soul in a body now and ever finish over he says very powerful and sounds like this just like when it came to dividing up the land of israel on the first time there was three things in other words there was bogorio the lottery there was intellect and you needed those three to originally divide up the land of israel and through those three things we able to divide up the land of israel in a way that every single person had of the jewish people had a nice beautiful garden with grapes and figs etc and the jewish people were calm and peaceful everyone in his own orchard so the same thing also the rubber says it's going to be also now through the fact that we do are avoiding and our actions and not only that we're going to do even more than what's what's what would than our voider why are we doing more than then because now we have the tremendous urethra we have the tremendous concealment we're in ichrist mashika look what's going on it's so dark out there and especially deborah says unfortunately the gullus and the exile of of of the souls of the jewish people and and then asean the prince of the jewish people up until we unfortunately had the the the exile and the imprisonment of the of of the leader of the jewish people the friedrich greber which is obviously referring to before you you're based in gilbert helmuts but what happened after that it was unfortunate it was gullis it was my said it was exile but what happened he was redeemed we have the gula we have the redemption and when the free the kirby was redeemed there was said not only the free the governor is redeemed but anybody that loves torah anybody that keeps its voice and even a simple jew just called jew a jew everyone experienced that redemption because the redemption was a preparation and it creates an opportunity and a vessel to draw in the tremendous redemption the general redemption for all the jewish people wherever they are that there's going to be again we're going to be able to conquer the land of israel in a way we're going to have shaolin moritz we're going to have peace in the land of israel and hashem is going to take us standing straight up to this role through the three different levels of avoido roll the lottery we serve hashem with the moon and betahrain and with all our with the ruach and coyotes we're all our tensory roys and with intellect with basically surmountative that's our avoidance and the main avoid and the foundation of the old day of audiences and this is extremely powerful and important when a person makes a resolution a strong relation that he's willing to go on the serious nephesh he's willing to do whatever it takes and like the like the the uh the the famous line from the free the grabber who's who he he's celebrating his his celebration now that what does mysterious nephesh mean what does it mean i'm going in self-sacrifice it's the resolution this is exactly how we're doing it which means we're dedicating ourselves to hashem and no other way and when a jew says it's very powerful when a jew says that he's taking on a resolution that he's going to do what hashem wants suramar for all is uh 10 to 10 10 spheres and he's going to do it with a muna and he's going to do it with bittle when he personally takes that on there's no it's irrelevant how he was before that how even a minute before you couldn't do the worst thing when a person takes on a resolution from now on that said i'm serving hashem on all levels all my my spheres down to malchus emunah and bitter and a person takes on that resolve it's irrelevant how it was before and there actually brings from the rambam which is jewish law not philosophy when a person says as soon as a person says write sani i want what happens is the will of hashem which is the true will of every single person wants to fulfill the will of hashem gets revealed in a real way to do the will of hashem so soon as we take that resolution takes him for everything from the past and by taking on that resolution rubber says that he's taking on the resolution he's going to do the will of hashem and we know hashem is good and the source of good and hashem wants to do good and hashem is going to take every single one of the jewish people out of gulas out of exile wherever we are and in a way of them to look to the echo echo israel hashem is going to take each and every one of us out of gullus and by taking literally not as a group we're all going as a group no each one individually that shows a tremendous love and the dearness and the hashem has to every single person and the divine providence for every single individual and hashem is going to take us out not again now as a group every one individual which personalized love personalized attention and he's going to take us standing upright to eritakoides very very so very very soon with bias mashiach so obviously this is a very very powerful acidic discourse with powerful lessons about how we can serve hashem surimi rabbah saytov through all our sriracha faith bittle but i think the rabbit gives real practical advice how we can connect to hashem never shall kiss connects to hashem by realizing terror mitzvah's created connects to hashem by realizing you read that whichever brings up by creating that meditation become calm and peaceful and clear and even if we're not in that level just by putting our minds which are practical beautiful tip just thinking positive thinking great things will be there and even if we can't get there right away so cleveland royce realize our hasham is so high and that will get us there so let's hope and pray as rava says hashem will take each and every one of us out of his golos and in richmond the next class will have in your shallow ear dish have a great and blessed week
