Welcome to our class on we're going to
be learning a beautiful discourse in the
Reb the name of the discourse is called
has the re said this discourse
on in the year Z 67 years ago never went
on to certify and edit this discourse in
honor of the holiday of the Redemption
of
the which was
on and re certified in the
year 37 years ago so again the discourse
is based on a verse in the Psalms where
King David says
hasem Hashem is dear with me with my
helpers by ER I'm going to see with my
enemies so the Reb brings from the from
the previous rebba who as we mentioned
is is the the the the rabbi that's
celebrating his his holiday and as is
Redemption a day of joy and celebration
in his discourse with this title
of that he said onas the first Yas in
the year tough r p and he says that the
expression of the of the verse
Hashem what does that mean that there's
other helpers and
Hashem should be amongst the other
helpers so it's not understood the fact
is every single Jewish person believes
with perfect faith that Hashem is the
one is that helps us in everything
nothing that we have or do is not from
Hashem so how do you say Hashem is there
with my helpers in other words that it
seemingly you're saying we're saying is
that we have other helpers and and those
are the true helpers and is is part of
that what does that mean okay that's
question number one also we have to
understand what is King David's request
I'm going to see with my with my uh uh
my enemies he's going to see Revenge his
enemies seemingly he should have asked
like we know in in in the world of
spirituality it's not about seeing
revenge in your enemy it's about
transformation they should see that
their their enemies should be
transformed for goods what do mean I
want to see who who wants who Wants
Revenge we want
transformation now even though that the
the enemies of of of of King David um
when he was referring to those enemies
he referring to the enemies of hem like
it like it says
clearly the enemies of hem that's the
ones I hate um ET but the fact as we
know it says in another verse
that that the the sin should be
eradicated from the earth it doesn't say
Sinners and that's referring to those
that hate Hashem and like we see clearly
in the behavior of
theim and especially of the fre who is
celebrating his his Redemption that they
that they went ahead and they reached
out and they brought love and warmth and
they tried to include them even those
that are under the category where it
speaks about in do explains in the 302nd
chapter at the end that that those NE
you don't necessarily have to to try to
welcome in and transform but no they
went ahead and they work with them and
they actually transformed them to
something good and as they took
somethingone that was negative and trans
something positive so therefore his
request should have been that they
should do Chua they should repent and
what does this mean I'm going to see
with my my my my enemies um Revenge okay
sh says in order to understand this the
previous gives an introduction and he
brings what King David
says which means Hashem your statutes
your your your laws your your mitz which
are aren comprehendable Beyond logic
that was songs for me in my in my house
of my Sur joury what does that mean that
when King David was was traveling from
place to place and he wasn't necessarily
at home and he was he was he was a
foreigner
and Mur comes in the word of of Gus he
he was a stranger and he had full of
fears um because Mur is also in the
expression of of of full of fears of of
his of his of people that ha that that
that were were that hated him and people
running after him so even when he was
going through his greatest challenges he
was singing and he was dancing and he
was happy
with the of specifically the the statue
of that that was sweet to him just like
when someone enjoys a beautiful song
that's what gave joy and satisfaction to
King David when he was going through his
greatest struggles says one second we
have to understand there's a lot of
Pleasures in the world and why does King
David specifically compare the pleasure
that he had in learning toy um with
music there's other Pleasures okay
question number one also we have to
understand we know that when it comes to
there's three types of
this this and I we'll explain each one
what are m m are the laws that intellect
would tell you to do it like for example
the Talon says clearly that we would
learn the laws of of of not stealing and
we would learn um uh um we'd learn the
laws of of of of not cheating and
respect from from from from logic and
from different animals and so on and so
for that's one type of Mitzvah so
logical mitv which we would basically in
Institute anyway then there's another
type of Mito called what is
those are like a sign a a remembrance
for example we keep Shabbat because hm
created the world in six days rest in
the seventh we keep Passover took us out
of Egypt suot hasm gave us booths T
remind us going out of Egypt those are
signs now and even the ones that are
signs they're logical something you went
through you went you created the world
six days he rested in the seven it's
logical to celebrate Shabbat now even
though that logic wouldn't necessarily
establish these mitv other words not
like not like
MIT that if T wasn't would wouldn't have
given to us we'd learn for example
modesty from a cat the way he covers
over and steal and stealing from an ant
doesn't take other things and so on and
so forth but after the Torah commanded
us with those testimonies yeah logic
says it makes sense to have a day of
Celebration however so Mally logical
we wouldn't have come up with it
but once hasm came up with it yeah it
makes sense however when you're dealing
with the and the statutes that that's
not that's beyond logic and like it says
clearly I made a decree and you have to
follow it so if that's the case the
question is why does King David
say
between you know was it was tremendous
Joy it was specifically from the the
ones that are not logical the fact
is we know that King David had Joy from
all the parts of the T even the ones
that are AOS testimonies even M so why
does he single out and he say you know
what my joy was specifically as if he's
like taking away from we know King David
loved every part of the
okay so explains and he says as follows
Ziro King David sayso they were like
they were they were
he used the expression of what does
meanus comes from an expression of of to
praise and like the author explains in
tan that this that King David called
too it's the praise of is the it's the
praise of the T in other words what does
that mean with praise of the t St
explains in t say something very
powerful that King David was praising
the
T that the whole energy of the whole
world is
dependent on literally one Nuance one
detail of the T the whole world hangs on
a detail on the
T and the the connection with with this
Insight with the literal explanation of
that
theim what does that mean because when
he meditated on the the tremendous
quality and the tremendous Praise of the
tah that all the worlds and world are
nothing nothing compared to a little one
one Nuance in the T so therefore he
affected upon himself in a practical way
that nothing in the world should bother
him and even when it wasn't good
physically he was learning Tyra with
tremendous Joy why because he realized
guess what I'm what I'm I have
discomfort in the world the whole world
is nothing compared to to one Nuance in
the teror if I'm learning teror guess
what life is great and like there like
and like the teaching of the of the the
B the and he and he explains another um
Insight
in that um that comes from from from
cutting like you cut you cut you you cut
off um branches Etc in other words that
by he learning toy he was able to cut
off all his enemies and all the people
running after him and like it says
clearly get up in the morning and go to
the to the synagogue and all your
enemies will go away so what do we have
so we have like the so
far what does mean so one is is praising
the praise of the T the whole the whole
world is hang on one detail of T the
second is that is that means through the
T you can cut off get rid of all all all
all obstacles the say he like to connect
these two ideas that when a person
learns T in a way of like the AL
explains in t that you feel that the
whole world is dependent on one one
Nuance in the T So through that what
happens is anything that's not in line
with the Torah and anything not only out
line but anything that's opposing the
Torah shouldn't have any energy and it
should have the idea of SME where it
totally gets caught basically fuses the
two and based on this we'll understand
what it
says and why use specifically that was
one of the questions why because these
two ideas ofo one is praising the tell
you that the whole world is hanging on
one part of the tah and that has the
power to cut off any negative forces
where does that come from it comes
specifically from theim from the
statutes of the Torah why is that the
never explains as
follows never says as follows we know
that there's when it comes to mitz
generally I mean there's many ways to
divide it up but for right now generally
there's two ways to divide up the
Mitzvah you have the mitzah
of is in one category what does that
mean cuz those two mitz the types of
Mitzvah that have logic have reason and
then you have the MIT of statutes which
are Beyond logic two categories and
these not only are two categories of
mitz these are two ways in serving hem
meaning say there a way to serve hem
based on logic based on Reon
reason and then there's a way of serving
hem no
logic acceptance which is idea of what's
the reason I just accept and and and the
fact is you need both in every Mitzvah
it's not that they competition you need
the acceptance I need you need the logic
now what what is the idea because when
it comes to a Mitzvah there's two
components one is that the Mitzvah is
the will of hem when something is the
will of Hashem there's no reason it's
the will without without without reason
above logic and that applies to every
mitvah every one of the 613 Commandments
why do we do it it's the will of hem
it's the r hem there's no reason
whatsoever that's one reason why we do
the mitz two the second reason after the
will of Hashem has to do this Mitzvah
every one of the 613 commandments so
what does that mean so the will got
enclosed within the intellect
understanding of the Torah so through
that it's a second product that you was
added on the Mitzvah a reason for
it and not only that in every Mitzvah
there's a a specific light and
revelation
specific to that Mitzvah comes to that
Mitzvah and that's why the
248 Commandments of hem correspond to
the 248 Li limbs in the body because we
know every single limb has a different
power and energy now these reasons that
were given is also from coming from the
from the understanding as her the way
the way it's on high and from there it
comes out through many many levels the
reasons of the of the MIT in the
revealed part me the reasons of the
the testimonies and M the way that we
have literally and that's why when it
comes to doing a Mitzvah you have to
have both intentions you need the
general intention it's the but then you
need a specific intention whatever that
specific Mitzvah is in other words
because of the will which is above logic
so you have to have the general
attention before you do a mitvah
whatever wants he I'm ready to do it and
then for the the the reason of Mitzvah
you have to have that specific intention
of the Mitzvah now
so therefore so now that we have these
two different ideas of a reason above
logic and logic so that's why you have
these two ideas of which is above logic
and M which is logic and they are two
general ideas that apply in every
Mitzvah even though is generally above
logic m is logic but both really apply
in both of them know what does that mean
even the mitzah of AOS which we said we
could comprehend it and M Mak sense that
means it has a reason but ultimately why
do you have to do the Mitzvah because it
makes sense it's logical no you have to
do it because it's the will of hem it's
R just like the main thrust
of and the same thing applies the
opposite even in the MIT of that we're
doing
because there is a reason for every for
every statue everything above logic and
there is a a specific intention specific
personal intention for that Mitzvah
which which means every s
even aah there's a a specific light and
energy that goes through that Mitzvah
not only
that every one of these ideas of which
means above
logic logic and specific it applies not
only to Mitzvah applies in general our
serving hem not only when doing a
Mitzvah General our Behavior what does
that mean when it comes to idea
of like it's explained in the discourse
of the of the pre previous rabba what
does Mish mean logic you have to think
you have to understand you have to know
the specific reason what does that mean
we have to judge everything of thing if
it's be fitting according to the
intellect and the wisdom of
T and even if something is not say not
necessarily forbidden so you have to
think use
your to think if this is going to create
a weakening in a Mitzvah or in a Jewish
custom and then you have to get you
shouldn't do
it so that's the avoid the spiritual
work of using our our intellect when we
behave what's the idea of a statute
that's the idea of acceptance that we
have to do not only when we're doing a
Mitzvah but in general in life it's good
us to accept life will be easy this idea
of acceptance and we talk about many
many classes a very very very powerful
gift when you just accept life is easy
when you start trying to overthink
things it becomes complicated so is the
the opportunity to take the idea of
acceptance and bring it into our life
now so based on this we'll understand
why it
says that King David he says that what
was what was a joy what was a
celebration the part of Acceptance in
other words when he says we're not
referring to
the the specific in the the ones that
are above
logic it's not only referring to that
but it's referring to all the mitz
doesn't mean he enjoyed what only the no
it's referring to all the what does that
mean that that he observed them and he
studed them he studied them is coming
from because the fact that every single
Mitzvah not only a us
even why do we do them because commanded
us to do them in a way of
like and then it's you want to sing when
you're doing the
even bring the acceptance part bring in
theim and that caused King David to to
dance what does that mean they explains
like
this this that the whole all the worlds
are totally like nullified literally in
reference to a small detail in the
T where does that come from how can the
whole world be nullified that's coming
from the from the part that the source
of T is in K Which is higher than kma
and in this level with toyra is sourced
in k so therefore the mitv and all the
details of the of of the Jewish law in
them why is that is because that's what
hasm wanted it's a will above
logic because when you're dealing with
the tah the way it comes down in
intellect we understand them whether
it's m in general or even the the part
that we understand so since the mitv and
the details that come from intellect
they have a reason in other words for
example when we put on filling we put on
the factories what's the what's the
what's the technical reason so to draw
down on us it's
called higher levels of intellect into
the world so it has to be has to be done
in a specific way so therefore so since
the Fillin is there to draw down energy
into the world so obviously there's some
kind of connection with the thin and the
world because all the details of what's
the details of the so to bring down into
the world so therefore King David
says what caused me to dance and
celebrate and give me energy the the
hook imp
part in other words when when he's
learning toy he's doing it in a way not
because it there's a certain logic and
it's bringing energy into the world but
it's only because this what Hashem asked
me to do so therefore what is felt
what's felt is that the whole world is
nothing compared to one idea in the
and therefore the to that you're
learning is it's it's deep pleasure even
when you're going through a struggle
because all the struggles that you're
struggling and all the people that are
running after you and ha haters Etc is
nothing it's nothing not only that it
comes into the world that that not only
is it nothing but literally the enemy
and the people that are running after
you the people trying to hurt you
totally get
nullified which is a second Insight ofo
from the expression of to cut out all
the
weeds so in other words before we go
further what what what's explaining that
King
David not referring to the the the
vers but the approach of which is
approaches the r and from that level the
whole world is nullified and that causes
tremendous joy and that causes that all
the enemies get totally nullified or
transformed now we're going to go a step
deeper this in order to understand
deeper we have to now try to understand
um deeper the idea of Theos the
testimonies because as we explained
before applies to it's a it's a it's
it's a perspective it applies to all the
mitz and which is a logic applies to all
the mitz but ad also applies to all the
MIT the idea of and even in and
even in this's idea of
looks like again we explained before in
reference to so what's this idea of
spiritually and every explains like
this the says that based on what the
teaching of the of the previous rebba
the one that was celebrating his his
redemption in discourse that's based on
the
verse the verse says that he established
with and so is refering to is referring
to all the mitv but he calls it what so
you see there's something powerful
unique about the concept of AD which
applies to all the MIT because it
calls the this MIT even are called
because what do they do what does Adas
do they they draw down and they reveal
and I'll say it in Hebrew and I'll
translate
it by doing the you're drawing in
the concealment the essence of the
concealment of what the essence of the
infinite part of
hem Which is higher than a concealment
which is which which has some connection
to Revelation so we know like this
there's three components there's
Revelation things that are revealed
there's things that are concealed but
they're you're able to reveal them and
then there's the concealment that is so
concealed of the essence of which is has
no connection to to to to to Revelation
now why is that because when someone's
saying
testimony what are you saying testimony
of something that's that that that's
concealed like you don't need testimony
for example that there books behind me
you see this book's behind me you know
something anything that's revealed you
don't need testimony it's revealed even
something that's gly concealed but since
it's going to be revealed you don't need
testimony you don't need testimony
what's going on in the Next Room you can
go there and you'll see what's going on
in the Next
Room the same thing spiritually and as
follows there's there's the light that
fills the world that's the light that's
revealed in Hebrew it's called that's
revealed we understand it intellectually
that's revealed and like for example we
know it
says my flesh I see godliness and know
just like it's clear to every individual
that we have a soul that gives our body
body life for us in other words you're
you have a body the fact that you're
you're moving and you have life was
obviously a soul somewhere so you know
you have a soul and the same thing also
in in the world that you say the world
is alive so you know there's a Godly
Force that's giving life to the world so
means God has revealed in the world
because in our ourself because we see
we're moving we have energy and we see
the world is alive that's the part
that's revealed then you
have which means it's not enclothed in
the world but but it's a much higher
light that cannot be enclothed in the
world so that's something even though
it's not revealed but it's going to be
revealed and it's possible to be
revealed and I can
explain many many places that when a
person meditates on the light that's in
the world that gets enclothed in the
world which we see it's only really a
array because what's the proof that it's
array because it's in the world if it
was the essence the world would would
totally blow up so you come to a
realization that there's obviously a
source of the which is not revealed into
the world and that's the source of the
that's in the world
so basically logic tells you there
something which is above
logic so so far we learned is the part
that we see in the world revealed or
it's not revealed but we know it's there
because otherwise how do you have it hit
here
and testimony is referring to the
essence of the infinite part
ofm Which is higher than which means
it's totally concealed and we cannot
comprehend it and we can't even
comprehend it of saying it's not this
and this component of applies to
all the Because by person doing every
Mitzvah whether it's all three but ad
says that when you're doing a Mitzvah
you really you literally draw down and
you reveal the essence of the infinite
part of which is even higher
than
now okay so what we just learned we just
learned basically what Adis is Adis is
representing the IDE of not not but the
essence of which is hide and part that's
be revealed and by doing any MIT we draw
that light into the world powerful stuff
think about it every time you do so
you're bringing this powerful energy
into the world but now they ask a
question one second what we this that
the mitv all of them has a component of
which means connected to the atmos
the essence of of the INF part of hem
why is
that that's because that's the will of
hem
and it's a will above logic so if that's
the case what's the difference between
the spiritual energy of
which is the that through the
Mitzvah will of you can bring into the
world and which is also above
logic that's question number one also we
have to understand the connection
between the idea that the category of
mitz that they call adus why they call
adus because it's a sign it's
commemorating something which is
basically logic like you said before
because after you have a sign it's logic
so how does it connect the idea of
of the general idea of MIT that's
referring to the the essence of which is
high will above logic those two
questions they explains as
follows what is the idea of and we
just learned you're drawing in the atmos
ins the essence of into the world what's
the idea of adus practically so that's
called the avoid work of and I'll say in
Hebrew two words I'll translate it
something which is
of the Awakening from our heart and
explains that ro means that the will
that we
have for God that's coming from the
essence of our soul so adus practically
is Ru of Li which means the wanting the
yearning for godliness that's coming not
from our body but it's coming from the
essence of our soul and because the
wanting of godliness is coming from your
soul which is above logic you're able to
connect to the at the ESS of and like it
says reference to
God our thought no thought can connect
in other words referring to what what
does mean you can't connect to hm
everyone we learned T we're talking to
the essence of the infinite part of hm
which is hard in that intellect can
comprehend it even not through saying
what it not is but guess what in can get
to hem to the deepest level but you
could get it mean say when a person has
a real wanting and yearning for Hashem
that's coming from your soul you can
connect to the essence of Hashem that's
called so and what's what's soim is
acceptance acceptance so again before we
go forward so let's let's make sure we
grab this and comprehend this so like
this this and this is that we have the
power to
connect and also gets us to the highest
level what's difference like this Aus is
it's it's an Awakening from our soul a
deep soul that we want to connect to
hasem is acceptance no way just
accepting the difference between these
two ideas know the spiritual connection
to hasem from our from our roed liba
what does it mean I have a will I want
to connect to Hashem and I connect to
the deepest level so know you have a
want and even though this wanting is
coming from your soul and your soul is
connecting to the essence of hem but you
want there's a wanting there it's good
it's great but still a
wanting and even when you want it it's
done with
TR tremendous B tremendous acceptance
you're not doing because you have an
agenda but you want that God should be
revealed in the world and God's dream of
a dear should happen but again you want
so the wanting is is is coming from
you but the ultimate acceptance is
what is
accept just like for example the example
they give is a servant that has no will
on his own and he's only doing whatever
the master asked him to do and therefore
he's test to whatever Master wants who
whoever is creating a distinction
between a power distinction between
which is very powerful
and is very powerful it's coming from
the essence of your soul that wants to
connect to hem and yes because you want
God to be revealed here and you want
dwelling place for hem but you have a
want it's okay but you have a it's a
very high level but you have a want
there's no want H whatever whatever is
needed I'm ready to do there's no ego
there now
this difference between the spiritual
work of the of of of of which again
you want the soul wants to connect and
you actually reveal God in the world and
the spiritual work of acceptance it's
similar to the difference
between in in mitv itself what does that
mean and they're explains as follows
it's known that the will for a
Mitzvah way it comes from the essence of
a
what does that mean it's a it's a pure
will in other words it's not because
it's anything should be accomplished
it's a pure
will but that's so there's a will of
hasm that we should do a Mitzvah but
what's the ultimate Mitzvah is not a
will to do the Mitzvah it's the Mitzvah
itself fine difference one is the will
to do the Mitzvah and the other one is
the Mitzvah itself so what do you
see that what happens is when you do a
Mitzvah you draw down the essence of the
infinite part of
hem even
though that it's for it's because it's
it's the will of hem and above
logic so but but
nevertheless
it's you're you're accomplishing that
the will of hem should be revealed so
it's like a reason there's a reason
there's something there to it but the
true
will of Hashem is not to draw down the
light is the mitah
self so therefore the spiritual work of
which is again we said is that the
spiritual work of your your your soul
connecting to the the essence of hm to
draw down the light in the world and the
the the spiritual work of which is basic
accepting because when it comes
to what it's all about
revealing so therefore what's the vessel
to the the will of hem that the the will
of the essence of Soul which is
basically is is is an expression of
drawing that drawing down so it's
something but the vessel for hook and
statutes which is the will of Hashem
which is beyond beyond Revelation that's
ultimate acceptance on the highest level
in other words an acceptance without any
reason of revelation of accomplishing
anything zero just accepting it's again
obviously two very high levels and again
if you're connecting to your soul to the
end ofm and you want to bring it's
amazing but guess what it's
you whole different level basically her
explains that's why King David
said what was a song to me what was a
praise what was my greatest
satisfaction
specifically why he saying if it's old
the MIT because he's trying to say it's
not it's not which is logic and even
which is very very powerful it's the
essence of my soul bringing out the
light of hem no it's not that just
why because when it comes to there
is still an ego that still exists and a
very very fine ego but still an
ego and not only from the person as an
ego but even the will which is above
logic R but still something but even in
the Mitzvah itself on the level of adus
because the goal of the Mitzvah is to
bring down God should be revealed in the
world but the true and complete recog
nition that all the worlds are totally
nothing compared to one Nuance in the t
is specifically where where is that felt
in that because the the details of the
to from this level is one with its
source of the tah which has no
connection to the
world and that's why King David
specifically
says it's when there's no me there's no
I there's nothing it's just basically
cabal now there there's nothing you
don't exist and the whole world doesn't
exist and nothing can be a threat to you
and nothing can hurt you and nothing can
affect you and he continues on in theic
discourse so why why was King David
punished if he was in such a high level
why was he
punished and the answer is because when
King
David learned H in this very high level
what we learn before it's we did it in
the way of La arim which means to cut
off the enemies but the ultimate is as
we know didn't create the world to
destroy Hashem created the world that
people should live in the world know not
to destroy but to transform the world in
Hebrew it's called and to bring the
light into the world and that's the
power of prayer compared to Tyra why
because when you pray you're
transforming what's the idea of prayer
you're dealing with the animal soul and
you're trying to transform the animal
soul to behave another words when a
person prays you're elevating the Sparks
and you're refining them and they're
going on high however when it comes to
toyra toy comes it's a powerful light
that comes down and the transformation
that takes place with toyra is just
pushing things away pushing things
away and when King David wanted to go
ahead and transform through toyra which
is basically through pushing things away
laim he was he he was punished on it
because the ultimate goal is no to
transform the world to trans transform
the world so now based on that there ask
a question King David learned to in a
way know he was learning to on the level
of theim which is referring to to the
way it's the way it's the will ofm like
we explained at lent before so one
second so if he was in such a high level
he was Kabal acceptance so how did he
have to do it when it's not perfect the
way hasem wanted it if he wasn't the
highest level acceptance higher than
higher Thanos he's saying what he so how
do he come he want to to to use it to to
destroy the enemy and not not transform
it says he like to explain it as
follows based on what he explains in the
discourse in the beginning in reference
to it
says now so when we say what does mean
so we know is referring to the Oneness
of hem
so if that's the case if it there's
difference between means one there's
others but there's one this is
one the only one is that that referring
to so if that's the case simple question
why say if it's if
it's so the reason why he says even
though it's referring to the Oneness is
to show us
that which is one level Alim another
level really it's all one why is if it
said it wouldn't tell us that but it
says Tell why is that and explains like
this the true level of oness is that
oness is when you when it's one from the
world itself and that's why it
says because if we have
said so what does that mean yeah the
Oneness of hem that means the one from
Hashem it's one not from the world but
to point out that the oness is coming
from the world and even when the world
is created from from from theim which
conceals hasem and that's why what does
that mean is spelled which referring to
hem and the do we know is the seven
heavens and the earth and the the do the
four is the four signs of the world
they're all nullified to to to to to the
AL the one Hashem and since we know that
Hashem and Alim really is all one so
what happens is and this is a powerful
teaching shim which is concealment it
does it's not a true concealment so
therefore even the world that's created
the concealment that's created from shim
it's really totally nullified and this
only thing really exists isem up to the
level that is totally nullified in the
level of Y which is even higher than and
when you go ahead and create the unity
of these two ideas that the oness ofm is
it's one but it's also from the world
realized that that's one so through that
you have the revelation of the real ofm
that goes ahead and
unites both into
one that is really really
one I like to add this
idea that um
that now before we focus on thean let's
recap means that's really talking the
oness but the oness is coming from the
world now he's going to focus on the
before which is referring to these three
levels the level of where the the world
is it's one Y where it's totally one and
the the power of the essence of hasem
that unifies the three you all find that
in the name of of why because when it
comes to the name the powerful name of
you say I'm not going to say it there's
three components one component
is comes from um hav which we call hav
it comes from the word of MAV creating
in other words if you're creating what
are you creating the world that means
obviously from this perspective which is
mahab it's creating shows that the world
exists has a has has a recognition of
existence the second one
is comes from the expression of was is
and will be so this shows that hasem is
much more powerful in the world because
in the world you have now and you had
before and
after means past present future is one
that's obviously level above the world
and the the third in
into is comes from the which is an
essential name of hem which is referring
to the essence of hm so again you have
that means the world
exists above the world and which totally
has no level connection to to the world
whatever even though in the part this it
says that this we say is Essence the
essential is only referring to the SP
which means the light which is connected
to a vessel but there the fact is the
end rle ruling in in in the books ofes
that the the essential words referring
to the essence of hasem now since these
three different components
in translations and and and insights of
is one
word a connection to the world above the
world and the essence name so obviously
they must have a connection in other
words the the the um the unification of
the two insights
in and there was one that creating the
world and one that past present and
future is all one why how does that
happen tying up because because it's a
it's the essential name so in other
words that
since Which is higher in the
worlds comes into
the the one that creates the world even
though it's a downgrade but what happens
is specifically through that gets
revealed the essential name of hem not
only that
that the revelation of the essential
name of hem comes specifically we
through the part of creation of the
world and like explained many many
places this that the the the name yut k
is the essential name which is referring
to the essem because the creation
something for nothing only it comes
specifically from the essence of
explains like this let's go let's recap
before we go forward you
have has three definitions one is where
it creates world exist one is that's
above the world and one is
it's all in one word what does that mean
the the fact that goes to create the
world it brings in the sh that creates
the ultimate unit between the three so
Bas explains powerful what the ra writes
and it's brought down that discourse he
says like this the opening the r he says
he
takes and he makes an acronym is for is
for is and is which means the foundation
of all the foundation
and the and the pillar of all the
intellect what do we need to know as as
a foundation and also from a logical
perspective we have to know in three
parts there's a m reine there's an
existence that exists first and that M
creates everything that's
created and everything that exists in
Heaven and Earth comes from the essence
of hem in other words the the Mitzvah of
understanding and comprehending is three
areas one is we have to know there's a
much and something exist from before and
then it creates everything and
everything comes from it Etc so what
what are these three ideas it's
referring to these three components of
you saw of that the foundation of all
foundations and the the the pillar of
all logic is is is the is the the um
comes out from the
letter what does that mean the which
means comes from from before of
everything it's above creation no
connection to Creation it creates
everything that's part of hm creating
and everything comes from the is
referring to the essence of hem and
everything that comes comes from the
essence of the infinite part ofm so this
idea we learned before the three
different insights is also connect to
the idea of the
r you can
say that's why is the the the the
abbreviation
for because we know
that
foundations and intellect is two
opposites what's a foundation a
foundation means it's a simple um
acceptance Which is higher than building
it's higher than than logic which which
because logic has has rules of logic on
the other hand logic has there's logical
understanding we can comprehend it two
different opposites and what does that
and what does that mean
practically is referring to simple Faith
which is above logic is logic
and you can say that the the source of
the foundations is in which is above the
world and the source of intellect is in
the creational world and the the the
power that unites the faith and the
logic that the the faith which is above
logic come into logic comes from which
is the essential name of Hashem so
basically says now we'll understand why
King David was punished
because he called it um he called it why
because the
T the way it exists from the r of which
is above
logic which is compared to the idea
of which is above the world and
therefore the transformation from this
level is in a way you're pushing way the
world you're totally cutting away the
world but since we know the ultimate
purpose of unity is that the world
should be unified that's the push away
the world to transform the world and you
have to bring in the idea
of of the logic that there should be
revelation of hasem in the world and
through that you reveal the essence of T
which is basically higher um even from
which basically means the essential name
of hem that's what this punishment
because the goal is not to knock out the
world the goal to transform the world so
now there explains beautifully and he
says like this that's why it says
Hashem is here with my helpers helpers
what do you mean Hashem is the main
thing and he explains what is what are
my helpers my helpers are referring to
the Sparks that are transformed and that
are elevated and that's the true help
for the person like we know it says that
the
Torah person doesn't live from the bread
itself we live from
theem the fact that hem caused the the
bread to exist know when a person goes
ahead and trans forms the Sparks of
inanimate things that grow and things
are alive you actually have more energy
in your in serving hem you can't just
stay away from the physical world and
those Sparks actually help you so what
does it
mean that the the Sparks that are
transformed which are my helpers and
even though the transformation it comes
we're we're elevating the world right
the world but the goal is that
we should come that should come in to my
helpers this is a powerful teaching is
referring to the Sparks that elevating
that's what we're here for andem Le
should come in there how do we connect
the two how do we combine the two that
we're transforming the world and hasem
should come in that comes from
the and that's why it says I'm going to
see with my enemies what does that mean
and this is powerful that even those
that were enemies of King David and
means they were enemies of Hashem you
don't have to push them away but you
have to transform them and when you go
ahead and Elevate the Sparks what
happens then is yes the evil gets
totally nullified and then when you do
that when you transform them and here
the teaches a powerful total twist and
insight into it I'm going to means when
to come to see godliness ER I'm going to
see godliness in my enemy not I'm going
to see the get riding of the enemy I'm
going to see godliness in the enemy
we're literally going to see godliness
even in the world and like we like we
see by the by the the the the the the
prb who basically was celebrating his
Redemption that even those that opposed
him and even though they remained a
position they had to through the Sparks
that were elevated in them to do what
the right thing was and they had the
revelation of God above logic in them in
in the in the nature of the world and by
by the previous re going ahead and
showing us
byab that you see godliness in your
enemy that transformed them through that
by H the prer starting this process he
draw down this idea to all those that
follow footsteps to bring down the
revelation of God of above logic above
nature into nature and this by doing
this this will be a proper
preparation to to fulfill and complete
the intent of De to make a dwelling
place down here that literally the
physical world the world that's counter
of godliness should be a dwelling place
for hem not only for hem a level but to
the essence of Hashem and when is that
going to
happen with the Redemption the true
Redemption the complete Redemption
through mhia and it's going to happen
very very quickly so here we have
another beautiful powerful cic discourse
from the rebba and the real power of
just like accepting accepting but
accepting and bringing godliness the
essence of hem into the world and we
bring the godliness into the world we
transform the world and that will
ultimately give us the ultimate
Redemption so let's hope and
pray literally into the enemy we see
godliness and everything and God willing
will have the and next class will
be have a great and blessed week shab
