G-D is with you everywhere. יו״ד שבט באתי לגני אחותי כלה Kabbalah class by Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz

Welcome to our class on this week we're going to be learning a beautiful discourse of the Reb it's actually a classical discourse the reab said this discourse onat and that year was said after Shabbat and that year the re said three different discourses on that weekend and this is the third one in the year 60 years ago now this discourse is not certified and edited but I want to give an introduction first so since this is a discourse said in honor ofat now we know yat is the anniversary when the rebit took on leadership so the Civic discourse is unique and it's a classic because first of all the Reb took on leadership so he brings in into this discourses teachings from the B the the AL theed the previous rebba and obviously Reb saying his ideas so you're bringing in very very very powerful cic and kabad leaders into this discourse so that in itself is very powerful there's a very powerful cabalistic ideas in theic discourse but then there a powerful lesson and empowering lesson where God is with with us wherever we are and whenever we are so again theic discourse is based on the verge where it says in the prophets where God says I came to my garden my sister my bride so the Reb brings from the previous rebba in the sidic discourse that he published um in honor of his yard site as he gave it out before his yard site and he explains this verse where King Solomon says bosani I came to my garden and he explains what does it mean lagani my garden which means the place where I was my main stay the the intense uh presence of Hashem was there before what does that mean because the the main dwelling place of hem was down in this world why is that because initially the dwelling place of Hashem was totally in a revealed way in this world and just like it was in the Garden of Eden before the sin but unfortunately through the different sins and starting with the aash the primordial sin and the sins afterwards it's like it says in the med that the the presence of hasem started to leave this world it means god started to conceal himself more and he left the world he went from one heaven to the next Heaven until he went into the seventh heaven afterwards after God made a um uh left so to speak this world and all the Heavens to the higher L and he would concealed himself then after that that came the sadik and righteous people and they started to draw godliness down back into this world every one of the righteous People based on their unique service of hasem up till the seventh one who is the seventh one Mo and as we know says the seven is always most beloved by and he brought down the the go the the from the from the seventh heaven if you cting the top the first but from the last one close to the world down into this physical world so that was the process of of of of the period from creation where God left over over over several gen several sins and then when he came back down and and the same thing also applies to all theik all the righteous people like the verse says the righteous people they inherit the land they caus God to to dwell back into the world in other words they cause to draw down the the the Holiness down physically in this world and that's the whole idea where it says in the T where God says that when you learn to you pray you do God will dwell amongst us how does that happen how do we create that God should dwell within us so spiritually it's through the spiritual service of his scafa when we practice restraint and more important when we go ahead and we do it's we trans we transform a situation in other words first we start with restraint restraining ourselves from doing what we shouldn't do and then not only we don't do we shouldn't do we actually do something positive and when we go ahead and do our spiritual work of SCA you restraint and transformation so what we do is we transform the negativity the and then what happens is that the powerful presence of Hashem has felt all over the world and and the term is stalic doesn't mean he leaves it means actually a tremendous Revelation and that's the whole concept that when we do our of learning doing praying and especially when we have to practice restraint from not wandering off and and actually transforming the moment to Holy moment we cause this powerful energy of hasem to come be revealed into the world now what so and that is the idea of now when it comes to where God is dwelling in this world so the re say there two ideas one is the dwelling that Hashem dwells in the Mishka in the Tabernacle and later on the mikdash because we know that's where Hashem was the main revelation of was in the in in the Mish the Tabernacle and the B mdash and so that's one idea the Revelation is where in in the physical space of the Mish mdash but also it says plural which is referring to every single Jewish person in other words when we do our spiritual work of praying studying Torah doing MIT practicing SC we cause that hem dwells in the world and we affect the literal dwelling of hem literally into the Mish and the mdash so we saying is accomplishing two places one in the physical world the Mish and the mdash and be within within each and every one of us and that's why one the Main Service in the Mish was bringing the sacrifices why cuz what's a sacrifice he brings from the and that who brings in The Who and from the Z that says what is the idea of a sacrifice carbon Hebrew the Hebrew word for car for a sacrifice is carbon carbon comes from the word of K so know we creating a closeness between the physical world and the spiritual world and where they bring the sacrifices in the Mishka in the Tabernacle as we know in the mish how was the Mish made it says in the Torah crushing you should make planks Mish made out of wood now what now that's the physical world wood what is the spiritual significance that the the the spirit significance of which is referring to like it says in the tal it comes from the word of sh comes from the same word of silliness and from this silliness that's what we use to make the build the mishan in other words what does that mean because we know in general the reason why somebody unfortunately sins no one intentionally wants to rebel against hem so it's called a the spirit of silliness goes into the person and as we know that silliness also comes from the same word of of of of sat which means that you're veering off the the the the the straight path and when we go ahead and we reverse that and as we transform the silliness of the the the the the outside the world of Holiness and we make from that silliness we make a PL for the Mish itself so that's on a physical level what on a spiritual level what do we do with transforming the Shak which is the Shak is f which is the same letters as as Kish which is the plank we transform the full sord of the world and we make the planks should should be a dwelling place for Hashem and this way Hashem can have in this world says who is the one that does the spiritual work in other words that um the work that we need to do in a way that we we fix the world so to speak we transform the world and had and since we have to go ahead and transform the silliness of which is basically lower than intellect because intellect tells us to do the right thing so in other words it's not enough to do intellectual work because but unfortunately that couldn't save us and like the ra like and like the rambam said says in in the code of the Jewish law in the section of Hil the way of the way the way of serving hem so he says as follows generally speaking the way we serve hem is middle of the road middle of the road is always the best way however what happened if somebody Veer off the path so it's not just enough to go back to the Middle Road you have to Veer off on a positive side off on you have to Veer up on the positive side and then you come to the to the middle so how much more so when a person veers off in a silly way and gets involved in the fals of the world so in in order to go ahead and transform the world and make it back to a dwelling place for Hashem you can't just go ahead and do the basic service and you have to know means you have to go ahead and do even above intellect like he brings in a tal where it says that the rabbi would go ahead and he would be like silly in a positive way he would dance so much so off the charts to bring Sim to bring happiness by a wedding so in other words so what do we see from here who can go ahead and accomplish this Mission the who is that so like it says in the Torah someone that's in the army of hem in other words what is someone that's a soldier in the Army a soldier we know doesn't just go on on a simple path a soldier I'll say in Hebrew I'll translate goes are a serious neish a soldier is willing to give up his life why to be to win the war because if you're not willing to go on self-sacrifice you're not going to win the war the only way you're going to win if you're willing to I mean you don't have to give up your life hopefully that doesn't happen but you have to be willing to give up your life and that's basically the job of every single Jewish person because we're all part of God's Army and like it says in like it says in nanya even the most simplest person is willing to go ahead and give up their life for for and that's our to transform the world we don't just do it the middle of the road we actually go to an extreme that willing to give up our life to learn T to pray do to practice restraint and transformation and through that we make that God dwells in the world and that's what he continues on to say how do we do it so there's a tremendous treasure that Hashem gives us Hashem gives us the tools to do it it's called The Treasure and like we see for example literally when there's a war and even when when there's a war so the at during the war they give all the treasures even Treasures that they never even opened up and not only that they take not only the king's Treasures of the present time but they take Treasures that exist from previous generations and something which is so so precious but when it comes to a war and it comes to being successful in the war a person is willing to give up their life and you're willing to to to share any treasure you have and not only your but your your ancestors Etc and th this this approach of I'll say in Hebrew bisbas just giving it all out that creates the energy that we need to win the war now even though so when you open up the treasures so first you give it to the generals to the big off officers But ultimately who does it have to go to it goes to the foot soldiers the ones that are on the front line going on self- sacrifice in other words even though there are people that are strategizing in the war people that are in charge and they know all the wisdom and all the strategies of of the war Etc but the fact is in order to be successful in the war from the top to the bottom you have to use and massage which attribute the attribute of n we know in the sphere there 10 spheroid and the attribute of n um which is deep in the soul that that that gives us the power to say we're going to do whatever it takes to be successful in this war in a physical War to get rid of the enemy in a spiritual war to get rid of the the the spiritual enemy and therefore we see that even that by that by a even by a king that that he's not necessarily in the front line but the King has within him the attribute of n is very strong within the king and like it's explained in the cic discourse like what it says in reference to a Torah scholar that a Torah scholar that doesn't stand up for for for for respect for for the tal he's not considered a Torah scholar even though you want to be humble and you want you want and and you don't want to be aggressive at times but when it comes sometimes to to stand up to respect the Torah you have to have that act like the expression is you have to be willing to stand up what for the truth and that's the power of however says it's very very important to know that when you're using which is a very very powerful tool you have to be careful not to to do to use it right and not to use it obviously in the wrong and inappropriate ways now how much more so when it comes to a King as we know the king we know is higher than everybody the king is the king of of above everybody even among greater than all the officers Etc so obviously the King has to have the attribute in that he is going to win has to be very very strong and therefore even the treasures and nobody even saw them not only is he open them and he gives them but he actually he gives it without any limit and he gives it obviously to to the to the people in the war they can successful in the war and um not only do they give things which are higher than things that uh that are usually revealed but even deeper than than things that are revealed like we call a treasure something which is a total treasure which is locked up and like it says like something which is totally locked up that people never saw it besides the king himself and but in order that we should be successful in the war in other words to transform the falsehood of the world and to make it from she into the planks of the Mish and through that we should accomplish our mission of God should dwell on there so they give from from on high everything that's needed that's even not revealed and even even from the deepest level that should totally be revealed so re saying is that obviously in order to be successful in our spiritual war Hashem gives us everything treasures and P like the example he uses for in regular War now this level of revelation that gets revealed in order to Su be succeed in the war it's a revelation which is called I'll say in Hebrew the cabalistic term it it has no end the has no beginning so it's almost like infinite No Beginning No End it's infinite that gets revealed and that's what he brings um the the the the teaching from the from the says and I'll use the say the word in Hebrew referring to the infinite light goes on to the highest level and goes to the lowest level now so even though we're using the term light and we know light is all about Revelation but we're not dealing with a regular typ regular type of life but light but we're talking about a light which is a and it's what type of light it's one that goes to the highest places and to the lowest places and just again to to be clear we we always when we say the term high low we don't term refer to physically High spiritually uh physically low we're talking about spiritually high with this great Revelation and spiritually low with his tremendous concealment so the o the infinite light of that's all over from the highest to the lowest and that's what they give us to be successful in the war and we soon soon later even more than that now so he explains this powerful light that's revealed so he want to talk how powerful it is so he starts to explain that this powerful light goes to the lowest places and we say low we mean low in the the level of the way things flow in the world of the world of Bri Etc up until it comes down to this physical world the materialistic world and not only in this physical world so not only so so you have without this physical world now in this physical world you have things which are holy and things which are neutral so to speak but this light comes even into the world of the cipot that know where God is Not revealed actually God Is concealed and that's also connected to his physical world and like he explains over there even deeper it goes down even lower than the world of kipa like the alter explains in Tanya and he says that a person that sins against is spiritually lower than the world of kipa why because kipa is like the example is when the example T uses that let's say for example the king wants to test his child so what does he do he hires a prostitute to see to try to seduce him to see how strong he is with his values so the fact is the the the proess that he hires that's cipot but but she was hired by the king to to test and that's why that's why it was created so it's kipa but it was was okay by the king to see if you can pass a test but the person unfortunately fails a test and the person that sins and actually go and Rebels against the will of a king it's actually lower than kipot so that's even a lower level and even there the light goes there and so even here where a person that sins and actually rebels in ideas of of of the opposite of Holiness so even things which are permissible and you have even deeper than that like the AL BL in like somebody unfortunately that Rebels against it's like taking the king of the the the head of the king and you're bringing it down into like a like a cesspool and like Dr explains over there at l in other words so what's our job that to take ideas of holiness and and a step further people take Holiness and they actually transform it and they and they rule against the torah's opinion and against the will of Hashem know the lowest level is to take literally hashem's Torah and to say the opposite of it and say to do the opposite hm wants and but the point is the that that powerful light of Hashem guess what goes to the lowest places okay up until here is the first 13 chapters of the L discourse of the previous rebba now for this year the Reb is going to explain more in depth the 14th chapter so this is going to be the the the the the intense part of the of theic discourse today going into the 14th chapter in depth so in the 14th chapter the previous brings and he says based in the verse in the prophets where it says the as you referring to hasem M give life as k everything so everything literally everything so now remember we say referring to hem m is life and means everything so everything from the highest to the lowest everything gets its life force from where from now even though there's the lowest level like we just explained before you know with the world of the person that sins against hem and that Rebels against Etc um and we explain what level one level lower than the other but nevertheless what does the verse say the you the lowest lowest level who who caused it to existem so before he said oh he hired the pr and the person that's sinning but the says no no even the person that's sinning who is giving the person energy they can s hasem now this says the you so what part of hasm are we talking about so obviously if it says the at you're describing you some kind of level it's a prove it's not talking the atmos the essence of hem because you know the essence of hem you can't describe it by based on a letter in a word in description so it's not talking about the essence of hem now so even though so it's a lower level but we know what it says that when you pray you should pray to hem not to a not to a level and it's God forbid you can say that there's something other the that gives life for us so but nevertheless when it comes to the energy it's possible that the energy can come from the essence of hasm the way the way the essence is that's one that's one level or the way the essence of hem wants to conceal himself in a in a in a very high light that to reference to this level is considered dark in other words so since he uses the term V and like especially the AL explains in in t where it says the so is spelled Al so says Al is referring to all the letters from Al to T and the hey is referring to the five different expressions of of of in the mouth so in other words so and these letters all and hey the five different ways you you articulate the the different letters that gives life force so in other words we're not talking about the asmos the way it's on its own but it's talking about the essence of way conceals himself through the letters so the again so it's not talking the essence ofm it's took like one drop lower the way the essence conceals itself in the letters and through those letters that gives life force to the world and to everything in the lowest level and the alar continues on to explain don't only read you give life which means you create you give life force but it means Mah means you actually create everything so m means you're giving it you're giving it a Lifeline Maha means you actually created it and of this what this is what he explains in this chapter 14 that you referring to again the part of the essence way lower level weights in the letters give give a Lifeline um to everything so also gives literally the creation of everything know it's both to create and both to give it energy after it's created now even though there's the fact is there's a big difference between creation and giving it energy and I explained many places in at length that when hasem creates um this world and the human being this world so Hashem created us in a way that Hashem is concealed from the creation that created up to the point that we should think that we created ourself and that's the fact that's the ego that's where the ego comes from Hashem created us all but the fact is Hashem conceals himself we walk around we say I you Etc why even though hasm created us but he conceals himself to think we should think that we that who we already are however when it comes to literally staying alive and you think about how am I even Staying Alive how is my brain my heart my whole body working ah so you come to the realization now even even though it's a it's a you know it's a uh a a small meditation but you realize there's somebody that's allowing me to live my brain is working my heart's working my feet are every part of my body is working someone's allowing me to live now and like it gives the example when it says in the Torah that the Earth should should give off its produce so there's two components in other words before anything was created and and then you have something which is cre so the first part has has to create anything that anything that's growing but afterwards you have to sustain it as well and as we see there are certain plants for example need a lot a lot of rain and then you see certain plants too much rain is no good you need less from out the rain and the same thing also you see different levels of of heat um temperatures that different plants need so when you meditate about the fact that this needs more and this needs less Etc you realize the way Hashem is literally making every single plant grow and that that allows it that allow that gives it its life force but after you realize from we see the way it grows that it's coming from Hashem we come to understanding that not only not only is a grow from Hashem but we also see that someone actually cre created it why is that because a physical thing can can create himself and this is and this what what it what it says um this is what what it says in a revealed way and the Torah says you give Life Force to everything in other words and that's how we learned like Dr taught us not only we give it life force that allows it to grow but we actually hasm actually created it know when we say don't read giving it life force but read creating it it's not coming to take one away from the other it's actually adding that from the way you watch the way something is growing you come to the understanding and realization that not only is it growing from hasem but it's also created from hasem and the fact that both of those are in the same uh in the same word so so obviously you see that that that that one brings to the other so what we see is is is the growth the growth you realize comes from Hashem and then we realize that even the creation is from Hashem and that's why it it says in this verse that that here to create and to maintain and the infinite light does both and know it creates it and it maintains it so again what we saying over here so means creates and maintains everything from the highest to the lowest level now this idea that creates and maintains is in everything that in in this world in other words it says K means everything it know everything means not not only Holiness or things that are neutral and we find many places that when it says uh that most is like all of it no but here he says that that it's referring to everything like he brings the verse that says that hasem is feeds and sustains in other words that hasem feeds from literally from the from the from the Horn of the ax to the eggs of the lies from the greatest to the smallest thing everything comes from Hashem everything know this that says you give it life for us like so he brings from the Al and as you notice that he's bringing in all different teachings from like we mentioned before from the he brings now he brings that brings the commentary of the that what it says in in in the verse that you the words of hasem are forever standing in he in heaven in other words the letters of the the AL are literally standing without any deviation and that causes the world to be created and and and and to and to maintain his creation so therefore anything that exist exists in the world because we know a yes a materialistic thing can't make itself so it's not only it's not it's not majority but literally from the highest levels which is BAS which is basically the horns of of an axe which is the which is the biggest creation till the egg of a li which is the smallest one everything was created and maintained by ashem and just like it's on the physical level the same thing also applies on a spiritual a spiritual level why because we know that that materialism comes from spirituality so if it consists physically it's obviously that way in spiritual level as well and that's what it says in Caba this that it says from was it referring to so on a physical level you're saying the horns ofox but it's actually referring to a very very high level spiritually which is actually referring to the 10 spheres of the sphere of ker and as we know that ker is is is is the is the greatest is the greatest SP and ker itself it's it's in the level of K the top part of ker up until it goes to the highest level of ker that's one extreme and the Other Extreme it goes to beIN which is referring to the smallest creation spiritually know the smallest part of of godliness that we know that there's no place in the world there's nothing that does not exist without the power of hem even works of Witchcraft of the obviously not a holy place and that's why he says in PR on in reference to the the spirituality that was in the K that he says that is spelled with a is 20 n is 50 yud is another 10 and me is 40 so that's 120 what's 120 120 is referring to again think like kin which is so to speak the lowest level is 120 which is 12 120 permutations of God's name Elohim because as we know that Elohim is the is the one that Shields over it's the part that conceals and that's why is has the same numerical value as as as nature so even in there the highest the lowest Revelation concealment God is everywhere and that's actually why it's called kingom he brings a teaching of the again you see he's bringing all the and based on what it says in ethics of our fathers where it says when you want to make your name great you actually lose your name so he said says that the the nickname and he brings in the truths of Marik that this the nickname actually destroys the name and and and it comes in its place what what comes in its place the nickname comes in its place so the same thing also the losing the name that Hashem wanted to what create a name for himself so what happened was he traveled for 500 years up until the lowest lowest places where God has concealed so know he lost so to speak the concealment of his name so know so what happens when he l to conceal one name so you have you have the nickname and that is the spiritual level of the highest level of K all the way down to which is referring to even the level of so in other words basically what he's saying is that the infinite the infinite part of AEM the at exist from the highest levels physically to the lowest levels physically and the highest levels spiritually to the lowest level spiritually wherever it is hasem is there and then he goes on to say as follows and like we explained before at length when we say on the lowest levels it's also referring to the world of kipa and also someone that literally is rebelling against hem so so on this he brings the verse that it says a powerful verse in so if I go up to heaven hasem is there I go down literally to the abyss to the lowest level he NE is hero as well in other words the lowest level is what is what is it referring to it's the punishment for somebody who Rebels against but nevertheless he says even though go down to the lowest you're there even in the lowest level the infinite line ofm is there and like he brings from the the again we had the the that this that we say So speaking together in other words just like when I go up to the highest level you're there the same thing also when I go to the lowest level you're the it's the same thing it's not like it's a different God in heaven and different God on Earth different God in in in synagogue and different God in a place where people are making trouble saying God all over the place saying God on all levels from the from the m rebba and and like he explains over there at length and that's the whole idea where it says made both made where God is revealed and he made God Is concealed and that's why we see that in on on a spiritual we have kind in a spiritual level which we said is the highest level of ker the highest level so where does it come from how how do how do how do you get the energy even to the highest level it comes through like it's explained cabala the he of the head what does that mean and and also through the hear of of of of the beard on high why is that because the order to draw in the energy you can't bring in the essence of the light it would would totally blow it up so you have to have consum you have to contract the light up to the point you have to have like a a blockage of the SK of the skull on the spiritual level and afterwards after you have the the symptom the the contraction and you have the the blockage of the skull you're able to pull out um through the the hears and specifically through the contraction and the blockages you're able to um receive and able to grasp the light otherwise it' be too powerful so so so here you see the most the how powerful the light is cuz if we it's so powerful that it's too powerful so we have to pull it out but so you see we're dealing with a very powerful light and the same thing also that's on the highest level in ker comes through the Cyrus but the same thing also on the opposite level and that in the place of that even over there where you have God in a in in a contracted way and you and you create more of a contraction until you get the the proper here is that the light comes through and and and that's how you're able to that's how the light is able to go into the level of kipot but the point is that you have the same light on the highest level lowest they all go through the same syyro one is the holy syyro the the he and one is the the the Unholy one and that's why we know that when it comes to hear by a woman it's called AA what does that mean it's AA um because you can have the hear by a woman it's too powerful us to see and therefore and therefore has to be covered however when it comes to a a Nazarite those here are holy as it says clearly inah why is that because by a Nazarite the hears Are Holy and on the other hand by woman though hears are coming through contractions and concealment and judgment and and and and unfortunately it can go to the wrong place if you don't protect it and cover cover it up but nevertheless what does it say in the prophets in other words from the from the from the stomach of the abys we reach out to and hasem heard us in other words literally from from the abyss we we we understood and we heard godliness not only that like he explains over there that specifically that we through the punishment of going down into the lowest levels and we know that pun this an important idea that punishments in the t is not God from the punishment God for it know we know T is all about t is all about kindness and even even the punishments that are in it's really all it's all kindness so that we can go ahead and get rid of the junk and come to Great greater good now since but since there is a punishment going down to the lowest level so obviously if it's going down to the lowest level so it's not don't look at it's going look what's going to come from it by going down to the lowest level you can go to the highest places and and matter of fact and and it was worth it to go down to get stuck in the lowest places so that you can go through that you can go to the highest you can go to the higher places and literally sh we know is lower than the klipper so therefore he explains that when you go down to the lowest places and you go up that the elevation is based on the the the the on on the downgrade and like it says in in the tal it's better to be judged and then then come to Ultimate to the world of Truth why is that why is that because since when you have a heavy heavy judgment that will bring the greatest pleasure and greatest good so we see that even by a person that sinned like we mentioned before the lowest level the person sinning it's worse than cipot and literally rebelling against hem and you take literally ATT tur you bring it down to the wrong places but even over there even in the lowest places the power of theic discourse the inspiration even there guess what's there the infinite light is there literally in the lowest places Hashem is everywhere the highest lowest the same the same hasem is all over now just like the way Hashem the infinite light is in the lowest places the infinite light is there is not just there in a water down way it's there in a way of with no limits Ain a how so the question is how can that infinite light be in the highest and the lowest places so he explains because the light is is simple it's simple when things aren't complicated it can be all over when you get complicated that's when you can't only be here you can't be there Etc but when it's simple it can be all over and because it's simple it could be on the lowest level as well and from here we see that even when it's in the lowest level of the light it's there on the most simple way and it doesn't get affected and it doesn't get moved and doesn't get uh diluted from being why cuz it's simple it can tell it it it it appreciates the highest and it and it totally connects to the lowest level now even though we find in many places that there is a effect and a change and an effect based on on different things but D says that all starts from where that starts from the vessels in the world of Bria Y and AIA because that's already materialistic that's the beginning of yesh and over there yes in the vessels of Bri a lower light that that that does get affected and like he brings from at length from the the re again we had the the AL the now he brings from the the that even in the vessels of so again so have so he says where does physicality start in the vessels of Bri you have vessels in in the world of but in even in the vessel says even even though it's called a vessel there's no change in those vessel it doesn't get infected or intimidated by by anything and like he explains based on Foundation of theic teaching of the AL with the uh which is handwritten by um the uh the of the of the of the based on what it says and he says like this this is from the ZEM says which is referring to the vessels of the world but the vessels only from one your vessels and other words he he explains Mone is referring to the vessels and my vessels is the vessels ofus your vessels is the vessel of Bri CC that's already part of creation and he continues on to explain over there like explain in the disc the which is a a book from the from the M Reb so we have the again with the commentaries of and he explains the vessels of since in the world of that means the light and the vessel is one so you can't say that the the that the vessel is finite and it's God to say something about about godliness so over there in the world ofas it's all one so if that's the case why is it called vessel if you're saying in the world of the light and the vessel is all infinite so why is it a vessel and the answer is that the vessel is infinite but from this vessel on its own it's infinite but it has the power to create something outside of that silus that should be finite and that and that and and that that um that caus is caused by the tense series of ailos and specifically by the vessels of ailos and that's why it's called M which are vessels in other words because it creates a vessel for the next word world but it itself is infinite and like we see there gives an example way what applies in in in in US human beings down here because we know that we are compared on high and as like for example you have the the the power of writing in your hand so when you sit down to write you have the power to write and you write one letter how do you write one letter with the fingers that you have that you write a letter now through these fingers you can write multiple letters you can write any letter you want but you're choosing to write one letter so what happens so even though you you're limiting it to write with ink on on on on a parchment only this this letter even though you have the power to do all of it so if it works by human being that we only we limit ourselves to one write one letter even though we can write all of them so obviously in world of aboutus for sure it's underst understood in other words how's it possible to have finite in the world in the worldus know and to limit something out of it and know how like and how much more like he brings the ram says that Hashem and his intellect is all one and like he like like the famous line that he says that who he is the the the knowledge he is the understanding and he is the thing that's being understood and that's referring to the essence but how much more so could you say it what on the world ofus okay so what is what is he saying he's saying is that basically the infinite light of hem goes all over the infinite light of the infinite light of hm is all over and um and how does he do that is because he's totally totally s he's totally fine and totally simple and totally pure and he says we is and why because in the world ofus the light and the veget is totally pure and that's why it can be in all levels once you come down to the world of bre then already The Vessel takes shape and form Etc now and like he says like we see also in practicality and he gives a beautiful analogy of this idea and he gives the analogy of the difference between and theat tribes y's brothers so he says the difference between yph was that it says in the Torah that he came to the house to do his work what was his work he was busy with all the calculations of the government Etc and the tribes they they couldn't comprehend such a thing why is that cuz what what are the what what's what's the the Joseph and the brothers the brothers they took care of sheep know they were totally in meditation they were disconnected from anything physical from worldly Affairs and they don't want to be bothered with they just wanted to connect to hasem they wanted to be spiritual human beings so what happen was they couldn't recognize that that somebody like Joseph could be involved in the world and he could be the one that's you know second and command to paroi into a a land which is Solly decrepit and he could be so powerful where it says that no one could no one no one was able to pick up his hand or anything to ysep and it was everything of M he ran it but nevertheless he served hem just like the world us why is that and he very explains powerfully beautifully because y was worldus in other words y was lived in this world is's connected to the world of his spiritual his his his his DNA was was Aus DNA versus the tribes the brothers were the world from the world of Bria and like explained at length in in in the classical works of the Alan teror so because of that since he was connected to atus the world didn't bother him didn't it didn't it didn't cause any change or affecting him and like he like he told the brothers what did he tell them in other words he he's not he's not connected to to the world of a a BRI he's above it and as he is down this world just like he's in the world of atus up to the point that we find this as well in later generations and like he brings the now brings marash that he says that um and he gives he brings this idea and he gives an example way he was Generations afterwards so he says that the based in the term it says go via it was revealed and it was known so he explains explains what the Rah says in reference to who he's the one that knows who he's the one that's known in other words it's referring to an perspective which is called um dasion understanding from from a high level understanding and then there's something which is called a lower level understanding two different two different perspectives in other words from the perspective of D you know from a lowlevel perspective so to speak the world of Bri so he oh he's the one that understands which means that was using like terminologies finite terminologies that means it was before he understood and then there's after he understood or in a way that revealed and known like he brings to the medas that um that the thought which is in the heart of human being was was was was known is known automatically so in other words so what he's saying is like this recap Y and the brothers two different worlds Y is a world ofus so means he could be in this world and doesn't affect him why because even though he's in this world but he it's all it's all God the brothers were in this world and its world so how do you if you involved in the world how can be with God they have disconnect the same thing also he says the perspective above is Hashem knows he's the knower the knowing it's it's all one but in the world of bre what's the perspective is before the knowledge is the knowledge is the after knowledge Etc so basically he he he explains the AL explains know what we find that um that on high everything in the world so to speak is included on high and like for example you have different you know thoughts that can disturb you trying to focus on God and godliness you have different thoughts that come but so why because we're in a finite level but on high it's all it's all one before after all the thoughts it's like it's it's operates a whole different perspective and like it says in in the tal when you when they would go in that we you how do you count you count how do you count them you count them one by one in other words that's the way has theine provers on every single individual but and and the other hand even though it's even though it's individual it doesn't create any confusion how is that possible so he says that's it's on the level of like it's go it's known automatically and we and same ideas just like just like y didn't affect him because he was on a higher level same thing also can know everything but doesn't affect him now so the question is how is it possible that there could there could be a change in in in a in the light on high and it in like in the m in the world in other words because this is only possible in something which is called the powers not the light but the powers and like he like the example he used before when a person wants the right that even though the essence of the soul is higher any any limitations but the hasn't happen because the the the power of writing goes through the hand and it goes through the fingers and because obviously in higher matus there's no hand there's no fingers Etc but how does that work how could it come down and the answer is because there's a concept called Hashem could do anything nothing is nothing nothing is diff difficult nothing's a contradiction he can do anything so therefore even though Inus there is there there is no there is it doesn't create any difference but because hasm could do everything even though notus the vessels are are infinite but you can affect that from vessel can cause that the vessels outside of hiss and like he explained before from the Reb marash and that's also explation why you have the existence of of of a bad and evil and like it says like it says in the prophets created he created evil he created bad know even though how can he create bad if it doesn't exist in the world like how how how he create it and if it's fine and he has the same idea because what's the source of evil or bad it comes from the limitation which which gets created afterwards so it's it's a it's a it's a it's a deep idea inas it doesn't exist but from axilus you could create it in the next World and like and like he expl like he explains like he finish off and he says that same thing also we saw by the leaders of the Jewish people and he brings the like he brings from the from the mbba the second rebba and based on what the B says that he he was able to affect that when he was standing on the high in so to speak on a high in the high worlds he was able to even though he was on a very very spiritual level he was able to answer about things in this world now even though in order to answer things in this world you have to be you have you have to have your feet in the ground you have to be be connected this ground and but the fact is when he was talking he was so to speak on on a spiritual level and he like he like he like he gives the example he says that in shabas on chabas he was 2third in the spiritual worlds and only onethird down this world and not it wasn't only because of of of the quality of shabas because that's he's on a very very high level and that's why he finished off and he says but the rest of the week it was the opposite he was onethird in this world and two3 in the in in in in the upper world but nevertheless it didn't affect him why like he used the term that means it's revealed unn to him so in other words you can have S of both components on one hand you're disconnected but other hand you see everything that's going on and doesn't affect you that that's the power of y That's The Power of the other leaders Etc and that's the power of the world of ailos that in Aus it's infinite the light and the vessels are all one but from there can come out finite so therefore so there we can understand from this as follows that even in the vessels of AOS there is there is no change and you doesn't get affected and that's why he says like the zor says man my vessels the vessels of AOS which are which are higher than any any any limitations but it has the power that from it can come out finite outside the world ofus and the same applies to the infinite light the way it comes down to this world to the lowest lowest level even to the sinner that even over there it's there on the most powerful level and even though it gets involved in it like he gave the example of and we know that righteous people are compared to Hashem that they they're able to answer based on here but nevertheless it doesn't create an effect so he what he went through this whole thing to explain is that in one hand was saying the infinite light is here how come it doesn't get affected and the answer is because it's an infinite light does not just like in the world butus it's infinite but it has the power to create out of it the same thing also this infernite light can be in the lowest levels and not be affected by that just like Etc now it's not only because you can't compare it has no connection like it's so to speak the infinite light is here and it's disconnected from the reality of where it is no that's not enough because the fact is it's there and the soul is in the body and the fact is we know the soul and the body are opposites but there's something which is called a the infinite power of hem I'll say in Hebrew hasem has the power to take a body which is physical a soul was infinite and somehow put them together and like he gives the the ruling of the of the he says and after the the soul comes into the body it does get affected by the body however when it comes to the infinite light like so he brings in the zor that says on based in the verse it says there's no Holiness like so he says a different level of Holiness there different levels ofes but nevertheless thees that's the highest one why because Holiness in the level of comes down from one world to the next so it's holy and it's separate um because it doesn't really engage in it but thees of know is even when it gets involved even there it's it's Solly disconnected and it doesn't get involved and doesn't doesn't get affected saying there's different levels ofes there a part that would got if it got involved it would get affected so it stays disconnected the power of ir that can get involved and still still won't be affected like he gives the example a practical example and he says like this take for example if you have light it goes through um through through a glass and then you have different color glasses so you have light and let's say you have different color glasses so take for example the example he is you have a a red glass you have a green glass and a white glass three different colors red green and white now why is you pick these three says cuz these three uh these three glasses and these three colors of red green and white is referring to the three stand strands of light in all the level of s which we know red represents the left side which is Judgment the green is actually the center and white is the right side which is so again red is judgment on the left the white is on on the right and green is the center now when the light comes into the glass and if somebody looks at the light through the glass so depends what color the glass is if you're going to look at through the red glass you're going to see red light if you're going to look through the Green Glass you're going to see green GL green light and if you look through the white you're going to see white but the question this is did the light change no it's the same light the glass is creating an obscured vision of and you're seeing the light differently even though obviously the light has some kind of relation with the glass because obviously it's fitting in in there and and and and and because that you can say that that that that that after when you look at it you're seeing green light or red light or or white light but the fact is how could that be because the light is infinite and even when it comes down in here it stays pure so the the light doesn't change it's the glass that creates creates a difference so therefore in everything in in the human beings Even in our highest powers that we have take for example the power of intellect SE intellect which is a power it's not a life of power so that the the power in our intellect is not light it's it's more of a power and and it's not it's not it's not it's not a simple light it's complicated and like he brings from the re rashab again we're going we're going through different we're holding reab he brings at length that the power of Lent intellect even though you can say it doesn't change because that's seeming like he would say because the fact is the first revelation it's intellect when when as the intellect comes from the essence of the soul but nevertheless it's already a level of a power and it's not not light and the fact is in power in a in a power there is room for Change and to be affected and that's why we see that an in intellect which is the first Power that even though comes from the soul we see that there's a a internal intellect and there's an external intellect there's a deeper intellect and there's more of a uh loose intellect now and this is not only only because of the the the refinement of the vessel of of the of the of the of the brain that's thinking because in know words somebody has more of a refined brain um he's able to receive something more deeper and something it's not refine gets more of like a superficial level because if it was only from the refinement of the actual brain so it's then you wouldn't have the possibility to have a deeper intellect and and more of a fluid intellect because it would have to do with the brain if it's all about the brain so whatever the whatever level brain you have but the fact is we see that the more a person uh thinks and and uses use uses the brain it it should be able to receive more light and we see the fact is the opposite after you stand something very very deep you can have something you can understand something more on a superficial level so you see it's not about the the brain itself it's the fact it's about the power of the intellect and the power does change and you also can say it's because I'm busy thinking thinking about this and now I'm I'm going to think about something else if I can this this is more deeper and that's more more more Lucid Etc why because you can find something you're thinking about something very very deep and you get all the details of it and but then then you start thinking the external part of it so obviously you must say that when it comes to intellect it's not because of refinement of the brain but this this there's literally changes in the intellect and that's why it's called and not so other when it comes to light just like we use the example for the with the light in the glasses light doesn't change light is pure it's simple Etc power like for example the brain that does change and it's not like we find that in reference to light you I'm say there's differences for example just like there's a difference between internal intellect and external in you going to say there a difference between the light of the Sun the light of the moon or the light of the of a c or a torch no but there that's not a difference in the light itself this is a this is the light that's connected to the to to to the sun this is a KN connected to the moon and this is a KN that's connected to the candle or to a torch so that's why but but the any light is the same and he continues on to explain that even that we see that in light when it comes down lower it's not the same intensity as as its SES and that's because light is a creation but when you're dealing a regular light but when you're dealing with the light of the infinite part of hem which is infinite in essence so even when it comes down it's the same power because nothing changes and it's not affected so D is saying is like this that when it comes to is simple the highest the lower a like intellect that changes now there is a light that gets weaker finite light but the infinite light is the same from the highest level to the lowest level so the infinite light of kar is all over now and this is how he actually finishes off this chapter and he explains how it's possible that literally in the lowest level again low we talking about Ino and person Rebels Etc the infinite light is all over and later on the chapters afterwards he he continues and he finishes off and he explains the idea that this that we say that the O is on the highest level and where it's there and it's in a way of No Limit and these two components the highest and the lowest is called or light now what is light light what's the essence of light light is revelation so this powerful gift that hasem is on all levels is like Revelation but this is and that's what we have but there say this doesn't come to the treasure because we spoke before the beginning that hasem gives us the the the highest light but not only the light but he actually gives us the treasure now even though this light is much higher than the way what we normally have access to and it's obviously a much powerful light and that's why for example when it comes down to the lowest level doesn't change but the fact is um so light is all about Revelation however a treasure is concealed and it's not about Revelation but but we have so both components and this powerful light from the highest levels to the lowest level and this treasure we give to every single Jew who is part of the God's Army why do we give why do we have why do we have these Treasures the light and the treasure so we can go out to spiritual war the war starting with the Yar with the evil Incarnation like we know it says the evil the the the evil inclination that we all have within us which is the AAR and we go in a way of we're going to be we're going to be successful like he explains in the talmud what is it referring to building of Jerusalem that you build within yourself of Jerusalem what is what is a spiritual personal Jerusalem that we have year Shalom we have complete offer hasem that we can do it how do we do it when we do our spiritual work of a serious NE self- sacrifice and which as we said is higher than anything that we have intellectually and even the highest levels of intellect and that's The Treasure of being or or for hem and every single one of us have this treasure we all have the treasure what's the treasure treasure mes how do we have it we have it because it's a part of that's within us the the part of our soul the most powerful part of our soul that we receive from the from from the one Hashem and through the fact that we go ahead and we and we and we we pull out this treasure and we use it in our spiritual work of M nepes and we will be successful in the war and we'll we we AFF that we that Hashem will release all the treasures that we that that he gives us all the powerful Treasures even higher than the Which is higher know that's one level he gives us that but he gives us even deeper Tre treasures and that's the whole idea where it say in the medis that when many people went to the city some people said oh they want that they want this and other person said they they they're excited about something else but what one person said the one person excited about a horse officer Etc but the smart person said what do I want I want Hashem himself and that was the spiritual work of the alter and afterwards and he and he said it and he and he made it made it public that he said in heaven and earth I I don't want your Heaven I your your lower your your lower level of Gaden I don't want your higher level Garden of Eden I only want you he says in I don't want your lower level of I don't want you g your higher level G I want you Hashem and this is what we demand from every single one of us that we should say focus and we should say we want the king himself we want himself what and what do we want not a level we want Atmos you want the essence of hem which is even higher than the the infinite life which is on the highest level and the lowest level and how do we affect that when we person is not intimidated from the food of the world and you transform the World by doing our work with self-sacrifice and to be going overboard in a holy way and we transform it to make it from the fce of the world we make the carish the planks of the mishon and a mishon a dwelling place for hasem and through that we we affect is going to dwell in the world and we create a de a dwelling place for down here and we know a dwelling is what's the dwelling the essence of the king is there the way he is and he's there not in the concealed in the revealed way and how do we create that hem should be here in a real way in a revealed way that is through that hasem dwells within us through our and dwells literally between with dwells amongst us and that is the greatest gift the gift that we need to know that Hashem is everywhere from the highest level to the lowest level and we go on mes we go on self- sacrifice and we only want hem we will reveal hem in this world and we'll have the greatest blessings of the Revelation in a revealed way of the essence of so thanks so much for joining us for our great class let's hope our next class will bees with Revelation the full revelation of the essence of hem and God willing will be learning to from himself Ines have a great and blessed week sh
