welcome to our class and so this we're
going to be learning this week a very
special hasidic discourse from the rebbe
the name of the civic discourse is
called
where hashem calls moisture avenue the
river said
this specific discourse on shabbos
parshas vayikra
and that year shah's passion wasn't
given listen the third day of the month
of nissan
in the year tough shin lament base
exactly 49 years ago
and in the year top shin nun
which is 31 years ago um in honor of
base nissan
the anniversary of the passing of the
rebel rashad the rapper certified and
edited this hasidic discourse
so the civic discourse is based on the
verse
the opening verse of this week's torah
portion which is also the opening verse
of the third of the five books of moses
and the torah begins as follows hashem
calls
from the 10th meeting and he says the
law is about the sacrifices and it
begins
adam kiyamikem when a man for among you
will bring a
bring come close to hashem to bring a
carbon so the rabbit asks a question
and we know that any time hashem
spoke to moishrabeno whether it was dabe
or with sav
who was there was always
a calling of warmth and of love
so if that's the case that there was
always a calling of warmth and love it
doesn't and the torah doesn't say by
igra
so the question is how come over here
specifically in the opening of
the third book when it starts speaking
about the sacrifice
does it say specifically vayikra that he
called him with an expression of love
he always called him an expression of
love so why over here specifically is he
pointing out the turret pointing out
that he called him an expression of love
travis said seemingly you can say in a
simple reason
that the reason why it says love when it
comes to speaking about the the laws
about the sacrifices
because hashem started to speak to him
the oil moyet from the 10th
meeting where they discussed um the
torah etc
so therefore since it was the opening of
of the uh
discussions in the oil moyet so
therefore it started off to make a
disclaimer in a statement by ikra
and obviously we know that everything
else afterwards all the other learning
began in the yoyo it began with the idea
of a yikra since everything's fine but
if that's the case the question is
why is it that the first teaching in the
oil moyet was specifically about the
kabanot
why is the first teaching about the
sacrifices
obviously if it's the first teaching is
about the sacrifices
so you must say that the revelation of
the torah
which that's the whole idea of meant
moisture being to teach to teach and
share the torah
is specifically mainly in reference to
sacrifices
and whoever says that's why we find
interesting and spread that many places
in kabbalah
that the book of the third book we call
the yikra but actually it has another
name it's called safer
not the book of the sacrifices is
actually from one of the most powerful
and
most precious of the five books of moses
and also we know for example that the
third book of the five books of moses
is the third book and we know that torah
is actually the idea of three is very
very powerful
when it comes to torah because for
example you know in toy road there's a
tournament of him there's crinula v mr
alim the idea number three is very very
powerful
and this idea of number three is you see
it's more reveal the power of
three in a revealed way in the book the
third book which is called the book of
karbala or as we call it the book of
ayika
and um and so that's why he started by
yikra
to tell us that the ukraine everything
was
was was done with love but the statement
over here is because since it's the most
powerful book
uh the the and and that's why it starts
off with the idea of
which is the idea of love and um
and from here we learn out or all the
other um
speaking and discussion and commandments
etc
that was done with love why because
this power of torah where was it mainly
revealed
it was mainly revealed when it came to
the laws of kabul not as you see the
laws of command is the first thing
that's discussed
in the oil my aid in the opening of the
third book of the five books of moses
so then the question is obviously so
what's this power of kavanaugh
that it goes first and from here we
learn for everything else
rubber explains this based on a
civic discourse from the rebel rashad as
we mentioned before
um the unbased nissan the second day of
nissan is the
mahilullah the art site of the river
ashab and he has a
discourse called adam kiyakriv
a person a human that will bring
clothes a sacrifice so the rubber asham
asks a very
simple question what does the verse say
adam
a man ki yaakov that will bring clothes
will bring a sacrifice
so he says why isn't the verse say ki
sakrivu
when you will bring clothes when you'll
bring a sacrifice
and you don't have to mention adam
kiyoko just like ki sakrivu
when you're going to when you're going
to bring the sacrifice so the rubber of
shroud brings
from the zoar and the zora says like
this
um and i'll say it in aramaic uh zora
language
zakayin inun israel the kucha brico
caroline adam that the jewish people and
meritorious
trashem calls us adam and as it says
adam kiyakriv who is calling us who gave
us the name adam hashem gave it
he didn't say enough he could have
called us anything but hashem gave us
the name
adam what does that mean that adam this
name that hashem is giving you
giving us ki yakri mcken that's going to
come close to hashem
so the zodiac says why does he call him
adam
because it says in the torah
the atem had
who is us the jewish people are dumb we
cleave to hashem so
based on this the what the rep explains
so this is why it says
adam again the term adam and doesn't say
key sacrifice says adam kiyoko and it
says specifically the idea of adam
because this that the jewish people have
the power
to bring sacrifices is because we are
adam
which means vacant because we cleave
to hashem therefore we have the power to
bring the sacrifices
so that's what the zoar says and he
continues on verbal
and he brings from not only be first he
brought from the zora he also brings up
madras the matter says like this
that the reason why hashem commanded
the jewish people to bring sacrifices
is because they cleave to me and
and the madras brings a different verse
the zoa brings the aftermath of
him which we mentioned before and the
mattress brings a different verse what's
the verse the meadow springs
so it says he brings a verse from
jeremiah that says
just like when you have a belt which is
connected
to the loin of a human being so
based just like we find a belt it
cleaves
so the same thing also the jewish people
cleft hashem
so he says like this one second it's
interesting the zayer brings
the verse the atomic vacuum that you
yourself are cleaving to hashem
the madras brings the verse of an of a
of a mistrial an analogy
just like a belt cleaves to the person
so he so he brings over there and he
says
that the rubber shop explains that the
medrush
when it's referring to the cleaving that
we have with hashem
so he so the measure is referring to the
level of cleaving
like a vessel like a vessel that's
cleaving
why a vessel because a vessel what's a
vessel a vessel is a something
it's a mathias it's a something and the
oneness and the cleaving
of a vessel to the item that's inside
even though the item that's inside is
connected to it
but it's not one it's not unified it's a
vessel
there's something inside just like the
belt which is connected to the person
that the belt has its own identity and
the belt is connected to the human being
that that that's wearing it
so now whatever shop is saying is that
the when the madris is referring
the cleaving he's referring to a
cleaving which is a cleaning of a vessel
it's a it's a it's a thing it's a macias
that's connected to the item that's
inside but it has its own identity
on the other hand this zoryar is
speaking about a much deeper
connection a much deeper oneness what
kind of oneness is talking about the
connection
of the la of light not where it's a
vessel connected to the thing inside but
to the light itself why because when you
have the
unity unity and the oneness and the
cleaving
of light that's that's that's a oneness
connection that's a atsumi
it's a oneness connection because it's
light itself it's not a vessel to the
light
it's the light itself and therefore he
brings the zarya specifically brings the
verse
the atom had vacant which is literally
cleaving
it's not two separate things connected
it's literally becoming one
so um so you see from here clearly you
have so far there are the rubber the
rubber brings in
that the cleaving the the adam that
we're considering others because we
cleft hashem
and he brings two different insights of
two different levels of cleaving the way
this zoyer sees it where it's like air
light where it's a real cleaving it's
really one
and the mattress is referring to what
like a vessel where it's connected
but it's not a hundred percent one so
based on this
we explained that's why it says
specifically in the beginning of the
of the torah portion vayikra and the
book
of sacrifices it says adam
kiyakrith that a man
that will come close a human being that
will come close
and why we called adam because we cleave
to hashem
and what level of cleaving is it so the
whoever says it's the level of
light the deepest connection of cleaving
and and the reason is because the fact
that we have the power
where do we have the power to bring a
sacrifice to hashem
and the answer is because we cleave to
hashem
and we don't cleave to hashem just on
the level of the mattress but actually
in the level of the zoya where it speaks
about
we cleave to the hashem in the level of
light and therefore because we cleat to
the shell
come in the highest level we're able to
bring a sacrifice because we would be as
somebody
we would be egotistical we wouldn't be
able to clear that
we wouldn't bring a sacrifice so the
power and the ability that we have in
this whole book of ayakura
to be able to connect hashem to
sacrifice for hashem is because we are
an
adam that that's connected to hashem on
the level of
erasing the level of light now but
obviously so what
what is what but the measure says we're
connecting on the level of vessel so the
other explains like this
that the medrash is saying is that the
sacrifice the sacrifice itself
is not the human being the adam is
connected on the level of uh like desire
says
but the sacrifice is connected on the
level
of a connection of a vessel and
why because what's the whole idea of
sacrifices so it's brought down in many
places
that the the purpose of the sacrifice is
when you bring a sacrifice that's how
the world exists
because if people wouldn't sacrifice if
we wouldn't sacrifice the world to fall
apart
the the art for the world to continue to
to survive
and to exist is when people sacrifice
and um like he brings over here from the
river brings from the uh
talmud yura
to plant the heaven and the foundation
of the earth
how do we how do we make sure that the
heavens stays and the earth stays so he
says it's through sacrifices
why because when a person sacrifices
that's when you uphold the laws of
heaven and earth
because the people in the sacrifice
things would all fall apart it's all
about sacrifice
now so the sacrifice is what keeps the
world alive
but the power and the ability that the
sacrifices have
that they're able to keep the world
alive
that comes from the adam from the human
being who's the one that brings the
sacrifice so the sacrifice is the
sacrifice
and that is on the level of a vessel but
the human being that brings a sacrifice
um is higher than the world and that's
what like what the zorya says
why it says adam kiyakrif it uses
specifically the term adam why because
we know
that humans have four names adam
gether anoish anish
and adam is the highest of of those four
how do we know it's the highest of all
those four because it says notorious
clearly
adam bitsalmoy hashem says i created the
adam it doesn't say
it doesn't say in reference together and
noise but it says specifically to the
highest level of adam
we were created in the image of hashem
why because we have the power
um to establish the world and keep the
world
by the sacrifices that we're bringing
and since so since we have this power
so the rubber says therefore every
single atom has to have
both components what does that mean um
one is we have the component of the
sacrifice
and which the sacrifices on the level of
the vessels
and then you have and in that part the
sacrifice
so to speak keeps the world alive and we
know the sacrifices are brought from
all four there's four different levels
in in
creation of energy you have domain
inanimate
so you may have things that grow high
things that are alive
and madabri which is the human so the
sacrifice itself comes we know from
domain inanimate things
say may have things that grow and those
are all three components that go into
sacrifices
and but then you have the adam the
madaba
the one that completes it from the
fourth level from the fourth level
so the power that we have by bringing to
bring a sacrifice to keep the world
um alive and the world going is that
happens when when the adam the human
being um
that's disconnected from the world
higher than the world and does his
spiritual work
on the level of iris so is clarifying as
follows
desire is referring to the adam the
person that's connected to hashem on the
level of eras
the magister is referring to the
sacrifice itself which is obviously in a
lower level
and that's the connection of the caleb
of the vessels
and the abdominis and the human and the
sacrifice together completes it all
all completes it makes it a complete
component when you're connecting to god
on all levels of dominion
that's why it says odom kiyakriv
a man adam a human being that brings
close specifically we're saying
specifically in the beginning of the
book of sacrifices because the sacrifice
itself we know is from where
ready bring sacrifices they're brought
from animals
in hebrew and animals called the
behemoth and
not only do you sacrifice a physical
behavior
but it's also referring to the behemoth
the animal soul that we have
so does the bahama the physical behavior
that we bring as a sacrifice
but then we also bring the animal soul
from within us
which is called the nephesh of bahamas
how do we how do we bring that sacrifice
so
the rubber explains that happens through
um
the we know that hashem's name utk bufke
there's different permutations
so one of them one of the permutations
equals numerically
the number 52 and in hebrew it's called
ban basis two and known as 50.
so so the way we we elevate the
animal the physical animal and our
animal soul
is with the name ban of the godly soul
because ban which is 52
is also the same numerical value as
bahama because behemoth is two behemoths
base is two hey is five mem is forty hey
is five
so you have 52 so in other words the
bahamas 52
the ban which is the godly energy of the
nephili kiss
elevates the behavior the physical
behavior that you bring on the altar and
our own animal soul
and that's referring to the level of the
soul which is on the level of caleb
there's ban and the behemoth the soul on
the level of a vessel
a lower level now how do we have the
power to elevate that
so that comes from a higher place that
comes from the
level there's another permutation of
god's name which is
um which equals 45 mem hey
and by working with the the mem hey 45
of the godly soul
um and we know that mem hey mam is 40
hey is five
adam the highest level aleph is one
dollar is four mem is 40 which is also
45. so by using the
ma the name the godly soul
we elevate the level of adam which is
the same numerical value
as ma which that is referring to the
work the working with our the light of
our soul
and therefore there ever explains that's
why the opening of the book of leviticus
the opening of the
the book of sacrifices starts off with
adam
so in other words on a spiritual level
what's happening is on the adam key
across the river is explaining is as
follows
that adam is referring to shema the
number 45 just like adam is numerically
behemoth is shamban and we
elevate the ban we elevate the behemoth
the external behavior and the internal
behavior through
the avoid of shame and the ma
is a reference to the light the more
finer connection
and ban is the reference to the caleb
the more the more the
the more separate connection and
ultimately you want to elevate both
so we elevating ban we elevate the the
behemoth through the
void of man through the through the
lights now
so that's on the level of behemoth and
level of
abdomen etc but now they're going to
take it a step further he's going to say
us follow us
because what are we saying here ma is
the avoid of the light
ban is the void of the caleb and the
goal is to elevate the vessels
and then we elevate vessels through the
light service says
that we find this same idea this
spiritual component
is in reference to learning torah and
doing mitzvoth
because learning torah we know torah is
torah or torres
light and mitzvos is we do with physical
things
so it's also the idea of what i'm a
vessel so light
and vessels the same idea terror and
voice
and based on this treble explains that
the two levels
of the cleaving of the jewish people
with hashem
has that happened it happens one through
learning torah that's
called a light connection you learn
turrets light
on the other one you're doing mitzvos
you're dealing with the vessels you're
doing with physical work
physical world you know by doing a
mitzvah it's cleaving to hashem like
that looks like a vessel cleaves
um to the to the items that are inside
and learning torah it's like when light
connects to light it's totally won
so based on this rubber connects this
idea to what it says
in tikkun zoyer says as follows
that the three prayers that we pray
every single day
chakras the morning min had the
afternoon when an arvis
and the evening so it says in the quran
zayar that the three prayers that we do
every day
chakras is corresponds
to the image of an ari arye a lion
a siren ox and a nesha and an eagle
so the three prayers represent the three
the three animals are yeah and nisha
and the zoya says the idea of adam
kiyakriv what is that referring to that
is referring to
learning torah so in other words in
the connection is that when with
sacrifices we know that the prayers are
take place in the sacrifices
the prayers that take place in a
sacrifice so the sacrifice elevate the
ban
the animal which is referring to the
animal of the lion um the
the uh the the uh acts and the and the
and the and the and the eagle
um on the other hand the adam is
referring to the human being
and that's the level of what of learning
torah
and the and and and the the brings and
the river continues in the zodiac desire
says
that's why you know if you think about
it prayer is in place of the sacrifices
so prayers in this place of sacrifice
how come
in the prayer services you have um you
you have sections from the terror in
there
and then on monday and thursday in
shabbat we take out the torah but even
in the prayers there's pieces of the
torah why why do we have torah in there
so the urban explains very simple now we
see why you have to learn terror while
you're praying
because if you want these sacrifices to
be complete it's not just
praying and talking about the sacrifices
you actually have to you have to
you have to have the other as well and
the other gets connected
specifically through learning torah
zoi's torah's
this is the torah of the adam so the
behavior is more connected to the
sacrifice
but when it comes when it comes to torah
that's more of a connection work with
the idea about them
and rubber explains that um what's the
idea behind it
because this that the prayers that we
pray
we say is in place of the sacrifices
so that's in place of the sacrifice
itself which means
transforming the animal soul
by bringing the bahama which basically
by the regular prayers
but the idea of adam kiyoko the the
first component the aldum that comes
close to hashem
that's specifically through learning
torah so in other words the ability that
we have
to bring sacrifices and to elevate
our nephesh bahamas comes from adam
which is the cleaving tasham on the
level of light
and that happens through learning torah
so you see this
they're both important you need to have
doing mitzvos
because that's elevates the physical
world and then you need to have the
learning torah because that brings a
light
and that creates a more finer and deeper
connection
so based on this trevor explains that's
why
the beginning of the first
um speaking of our from hashem to
moisture abano
in the oil mohaid which is all about
learning
what specifically about the sacrifices
why because
the revelation of the torah
the goal is not to stay on high but the
goal is it should be involved it should
be it should be permeating the
sacrifices
to elevate the nephesh mohammed's in
other words because by
bringing the sacrifices we elevate the
physical world
and the world exists based on the
sacrifices
but what is the source and the power
that we have to elevate the world
through the sacrifice that comes through
torah and that's why it says
adam kiyakriv and what is it referring
to it's referring to the component of
learning torah
and whoever says we can connect this
idea we know that every single day
there was different a different um a
different
tribal leader brought different
sacrifices so who brought
we took in the month of nisan so who
brought them who brought the sacrifice
on the second day of the month of nisan
so it says hickory miss san alban sure
and he was the sea the president the
prince of the tribe of yasaka
now why why
why did you sucker merit to be the
second one
why was he right away the second one and
the answer is because we know that
soccer were the ones that learned torah
and since they learned torah
so therefore they were seconds the one
reason is there's one reason why your
soccer was
was second right after right after
yehuda is because they learn torah
that's one reason
another reason is because they're the
suckers the ones
that gave the advice to all the
princesses
all the necesem that they should bring
these sacrifices
so they were second number one is
because
they learned torah and number two is
because they inspired everyone else to
bring the sacrifices
now thereby says that truth is these two
things are connected why
because they learn torah and we know the
revelation of terror where's terror get
revealed
not on the cloud it gets revealed in the
cabana
in the sacrifices in the world so
therefore
since they learned her they knew that
learning terror has to
anchor itself in the world in the
sacrifices so therefore he
gave the advice that they should bring
sacrifices
so now that we see the power of torah
that power of torah allows us to cleave
to hashem
so now they're going to go into a more
in-depth discussion about the whole idea
of torah and he says like this
we have to understand torah we know
is totally above the world terrorist
hashem
and like the rebel brings from the like
the author brings in tanya and tanya the
after explaining
as follows we know that king david
was punished one reason why he was
punished because he called the
terrorists mirace
it's songs now what does that mean
he called it songs because king david
he was praising the torah that he was
saying that you know
all the worlds all the worlds that god
created
is hanging literally on one
detail my new detail of the torah
so look how great there is literally one
word one letter
one note in the torah the whole world
is affected by it and he was punished
why
because the fact is let's even say it's
true that the whole world was dependent
on the torah
but the truth is torah is much higher
than that because it's connected with
the infinite light of hashem
and because it's connected inflation the
whole world is nothing
you're going to say the whole world is
dependent on the torah terror is much
more powerful than that
and the level of terrorists connected to
the infinite hashem
like how you the world means nothing to
it
so based on that what are we saying the
terror is very very powerful
torah is like whoa it's off the charts
the whole world doesn't even exist when
you and we we know it when you learn
torah
you're totally disconnected from the
world like i'm sure you're learning
terry right now you're totally
disconnected from reality of the world
so if that's the case a terrorist so
strong and so powerful
so what are we saying that the
revelation of torah
is we're in a sacrifice in an animal and
that
transforms and keeps the world alive
terror is much more powerful than that
so there are explains as follows and he
says like this
that there's two levels in toronto
there's two levels
in other words torah on its own right
sure it's totally off the charts it's
much more powerful much deeper in the
world and
and the world is nothing compared to
terror that's that's from one one
perspective
and that's the truth on the other hand
what's the source of torah
the source we're going now even deeper
what's the source of torah
the source of torah is the way it's
connected to the
atmos the essence of hashem
that's the source of terror so again
it's tricky on one hand we're saying is
the terror itself is
off the charts totally disconnected from
the world and much
greater etc but now we're going in a
step further what's the
source of toyota going even higher the
essence of hashem now
the essence of hashem is not
limited and not
described and it's not contained in any
any any type of
you can't describe it it's the essence
of hashem there's no limit to it there's
no description of it
there's nothing it's the essence of
hashem
up to the point
that it's that you can't give it any
definition
even to say that the world
doesn't have any uh any any
any connection to it that's already
giving you a description so we're going
even deeper
we're going to the essence of the the
source of terror which is the essence of
hashem
and not only you can't say the world is
nothing to it what world i mean we're
talking the essence of hashem
now so now we're in the place of the
source of terror
source of terrorism the essence of
hashem now hashem
the infinite essence of asean decided
and i'll say it in hebrew or aramaic
god for some reason we don't know why
we'll never know why because
we're human beings we're finite but god
had a desire
what was his desire he wanted a deer
bitter this infinite god decided
he wanted to create a place which is in
which god is not revealed
god is concealed and over there god
should be revealed
why again you can't ask a question and
god had a desire
but what did god want god wanted to have
a satisfaction and pleasure
when someone in this physical world
where god is concealed and god is not
revealed
and nevertheless looks for god connects
to god and prays and studies tehran does
mitzvahs
and works on themselves transform
themselves and even after they're
they're put down and pushed down they
get up and they
still keep on connecting to god god gets
tremendous pleasure from it
like explaining that land and tanya the
holy we do
when we practice restraint we practice
asap we transform ourselves
god for some reason gets tremendous
pleasure from it why
you have to ask him i don't know why but
that's the fact
now
so the same thing also happens with
torah
that the physical world
has some kind of
so to speak the physical world has some
kind of
a existence um
in reference to torah another was like
this god the infinite
to recap let's explain again god the
infinite god this world is nothing but
god desired he wanted to play he wanted
a dwelling place down here
why i don't know why now the same thing
is also with torah
the terror is in the essence of god but
for some reason god
wanted that the world should be able to
connect to him through torah
just like the this world doesn't make
sense
and for some reason god chose it so the
same thing was a god
shows that terror which is in this
source is in the essence of god
god somehow decided that this world
should have some kind of
a connection to hashem through terror
now
based on this based on the server
explains as follows
so java says now we understand why
king david he was praising god
what was he praising god and praising
specifically the torah saying the whole
world
hangs on one you know law entire
one word entire one one one one note in
the torah
but there is much greater than it why is
he doing that
because again because torah in its
source
in its source when it's connected to the
essence of hashem
and over there god decided he wanted to
have a dwelling place down in this world
and how are we going to make a dwelling
place down here how are we going to do
it
through the torah how are we making a
dwelling place down this world
through torah when we learn torah when
we follow the life of torah
then we are making the dwelling place
got down here who's who decided that
god decided that
in other words a bit so based on that
king david says look
the whole world is dependent on pendant
on us learning torah connecting to the
torah and doing what it says in the
torah
and that is the praise of the torah
and king david's right look the whole
world got created
so he should have a place which is god
is concealed
but on the other hand we have the torah
when we learn torah
god becomes very happy so look look how
powerful the terror is terror is the key
to connect us to god to make to fulfill
god's dream
terror is awesome so if that's the case
that's the logic that's what cabal
explains what
king david was saying and it's a
beautiful and it's true what he's saying
and as
it's only true in when you when you're
referring to the source of the torah
the way it's connected to the essence of
god and that essence god desired some
reason down this world
and we learn torah we we're connecting
to that
but so why was he punished so he was
punished very simple
because praising what's praising
that's revelation it's external stuff
and but when you're praising torah
you're referring to not the level the
way it's in the source of god
you're talking about the the torah
itself the way it's revealed
but wait the way tori is revealed the
world is nothing to
to to god and so the reason why he's
punished because the level of territory
it's revealed
what does the world have to do with with
torah terror is like so much more
powerful than it
so in the truth in its source it makes
sense what king david was saying but
once you start praising it
now you're not referring to that part
because that part doesn't make sense
but you took a part that makes sense and
then get in on that level tour is
totally much higher
so based on this trevor explains
something very interesting very powerful
what it says in natanya
in tanya it says something as follows it
says like this
tanya says that after hashem went ahead
and you know hashem was hashem is
infinite to create a finite world what
did hashem have to do he had to be with
samson he had to create
a sin he had to get a contraction a
concealment
and what did he have to contract and
conceal his will
his wisdom and that's how
you able to create a physical world
because if god wouldn't contract to
conceal himself
guess what the world would mail to exist
so god con contracted concealed himself
and then he was able to to bring down
um this world and bring deterrent to the
world and so on and so forth
and then it says in tanya and that's why
torah is compared to water
after it says tires compared to water
why why is terror compared to water
and he explains because just like water
if you think about what if you have it
on a high place what happens
water somehow finds its way down
so water is let's say whatever level
it's at if it can go down it will keep
on going down wherever it can make its
way down
so the same thing also the alternative
says that's the same thing with torah
torah was on high
with the source of hashem and
it went down it was a place with the
will of hashem
the intellect of hashem a place where
you can't even comprehend anything
the godliness but it traveled down until
it came down into this physical world
and into materialism of this world
that's what it says in tanya
so the rabbit asks a very simple
question
what is out there was saying toyrio was
in the source with hashem
the infinite hashem and it came down to
this physical world
so what do you need the example of water
what is the water adding to you
what's so hard to understand the
deteriorator is with assembled the
infinitesimal and it came down to this
world
see tell me just like water goes from
high to low what's the point of the
masala obviously
you're bringing a mashallah there's
something that you're trying to explain
deeper than the surface and nervous
never explains very very simple
because let's look at what happens when
you have water on high
what happens in the water let's say it
was a high altitude and it comes down to
our lower place
now when the water started out let's say
in a high place and it comes down to our
lower place
did it stay in the higher place or and
it came down also or once it came down
it stayed down obviously the water that
was on high came down lower
is it on high no now it's down here now
it's down here low
now the question is why did it go from
high to low why didn't stay where it was
why didn't the water stay where it was
and we know the nature of the water
keeps on going down lower
because the answer is because when water
is on high that's not really its natural
place
waters natural places to be lower
so the minute it has a way to go lower
it's going to go lower
so even when the water was on a high
it really was that wasn't it's that
wasn't its comfort zone
its comfort zone is to be low and that's
where it wants to go and that's where it
goes
so there ever says that's what the altar
is giving the example of water
just like water its real place is
down here and rubber says the same thing
also with t with torah
and it was this that torah was
originally with this infinite hashem and
it came down to this world
is because the the place where torah
really
is and really belongs and really feels
comfortable
and the true place of torah is
specifically down in this world
powerful and that's the analogy of the
water
that the real place of toyota again even
though it comes from
the essence of hashem and it's a source
but guess what
what is terror going to do up there it
needs to be down here
where we can learn and we can transform
ourselves through learning torah and
connecting to hashem and making the
world there without any
so the sole purpose of the source of
torah is
it really belongs down here
and whoever says he'd like to add also
what it says in tanya
at the end of that chapter so what does
it say it says like this
it says to
that the right hand hugs me and that's
referring to what
torah torah hugs us which is on the
level of
khased kindness and mayan water
so the ever says authorized specifically
the amenity the right
hugs me you know which is referring to
toyota torah hugs us
and he doesn't say this has said because
it is seemingly kindness
but he says kindness and water in other
words
if you're trying to speak about the fact
that tara hugs you which is expression
of love
you need to say the idea of khasen what
what is what do you need water for
because the answer is because when he
said think about when someone is a
ishakaset
someone does kindness so
when a person does kindness with someone
else
the person that's doing kindness is so
to speak the kind person doing kindness
with some the other person
so does the person that's doing kindness
disappear
no it's always the person that did the
kindness the person received the
kindness it doesn't stop
because when someone helps somebody so
there's a helper and there's a receiver
there's a giver and there's a taker
so if it only said what would that be
nor would that resemble that torah
is on high it's on low and it's connect
and it
has a room for both places but the
reason why he adds the word water is
to show you that when it comes down it
stays down
and that's what he adds
because torah came down as a not only
the level has said where
it was there and it's down here and it's
in both places
but to bring out when it leaves on high
and it comes down here is because the
main purpose of torah is
to come down into this world to affect
and change this world
and like the rabbit says we find that
many places explains
that we say that torah is all over the
place right terrorism high
tours are low so when when terrorists
says when we say that terrorists all
over it's high and low
that's referring to the gillum the
revelation of torah
in other words there's the way terror is
revealed so it's on high and
low but when you're talking about the
way terrorism
soars that torah is specifically given
to come down to this world
and based on this trevor explains what
it says is
this is the torah adam in other words
that torah is compared to adam torres
compared to mankind
why because we know just like we
explained before that torah
is on high but it comes down here adam
has the same two components why because
on one hand we know
otherwise adam called adam because adam
comes from the word of adam
he's compared to what the alien to our
very heart
on a high level and that's on one hand
so one hand why are we called adam
because we're compared
adam alleluia will compete on high on
the other hand why are we called adam
so the reason we called adam is because
because we were not so we were created
from abdomen from the earth
powerful the same adam adam allele you
have a compared
comparator on high but on the other hand
we're created from adama from earth
and like the metro says
that admiration says that i'm
that it's it's nice that i was called
adam because i was created from the adam
adam in terms of the low part
and the river brings that's brought down
many places in this
that um why did adam call his name of
adam from abdomen from the earth
which is referring to the claimer the
physical part of the person
the fact is he also has a spiritual part
to it he has a soul he has a nephes why
is he called other
just from the physical part because the
urban explains
that's brought down many places next to
this because other marisha and with his
wisdom he understood
that his body was created from adama
from the earth
which is basically a diamond the lowest
level of energy
and not like the other creations
that the body was created actually from
seimei are things that grow
why because of them realized the
tremendous power and the tremendous
superiority
of the adam of the physical domain
higher than the summer why why is it
higher the sum is higher
and the answer is because we all know we
learned it many places of this cause
whatever is higher comes down lower so
adam realized that even though it's adam
adama even though it's doing but guess
what the source is very very high
so adam you see again has two components
and the other hand made from abdominal
from the lowest parts
and that's adam
because just like in adam you have both
components the same the interior you
have both components
what does that mean on one hand you have
the component of turret which is totally
disconnected from the world
totally above the world and totally
where the whole world
means nothing in reference to torah just
like the idea of adam ashraem abdamillah
ali in the high component of torah
but on the other hand we have the
component of terry that terror came down
specifically to this physical world
and yes had it come down to this world
because its source is an abstinence but
the player that came down in reality
came down to this world
that's the same term of adam
where he was created from the earth and
the reason why
other adam was so excited that he was
created from the earth
because the risk is very very high
now these two components
of torah that on one hand it's coming
from the highest place
on the other hand it's going down to the
lowest place
and on the contrary when the torah comes
down into this physical world
what gets revealed the source of torah
the way it's in
atmos right the essence of hashem so
trevor says
where does this actually play out it
plays out specifically
in jewish law
jewish torah jewish law why is that
and urban explains very simple because
what is what is law
law means that it's absactin it's the
ruling
and not in abstract it's not smoke in
the sky
meditation halacha means this is how we
have to behave as a jew
we have to get up in the morning we
watch now we watch the in the
morning we have to do our blessings we
have to do our prayers
this we could eat this we can eat
because whatever the laws are jewish law
what does jewish law deal with it deals
with the physical world
so in halacha of torah in the jewish law
of torah
that shows the way torah is anchored
into the lowest part in the physical
part of the world
on the other hand the source of the
source of
is much higher than the other parts of
the torah so allah of torah has two
components on one hand it's dealing with
the physical world
but in the other hand the source is with
the essence of hashem
and like the river brings what it says
in what in in
in a famous specific discourse in the in
tough races and he says like this
on one hand we say a louis vuitton
what does that mean that everybody's
right
you're right you're right he's right
she's right everyone's right ayla
everyone's right so that's not halacha
that means everyone there's a com you
know everyone everyone's opinion makes
sense everyone has an opinion
and they're both all correct on some
level but what does it say eluv
what level of what rebel do you reach
when everyone's right
only the level of kim you don't go that
high but on the other hand when it comes
to how loka we know it says
it comes from the shame youth kevke like
for example it says
with him when it comes to allah you
reach
your kev came much higher
and when we say yurt kevke we don't just
mean you'd keep off k
we mean you'd kavafk the way it's
connected to the essence of hashem
yuchoy is the ability of atsmus
and um the rabbit continues on to
explain he says like this
that this that we say
that the terrorists sourced very very
high it comes down to this world
and just like the water that comes from
the high comes down to this world
and where does that play out practically
it plays out in halakhah
jewish law because it tells us
practically what to do so the represents
also connected to what khazal tells us
that the words of torah are compared to
water
why because what happens when you have
like
water in a high place it goes down to a
low place
water will go keep on going down higher
to lower
what does that mean practically in
reference to torah that if you want to
learn torah
and you want to become part of your life
and you want to be transformed with
through torah
it only happens when it has that water
component that goes low
what does low mean low means humility
so if you want to really be connected to
torah and you want turret to transform
your life
humility is key because if you can learn
torah and you're going to be arrogant
it's not going to work just like water
wants to come down toyora will be the
most
the iowa in the state you're about to
live off a toyota life a happy life
a a meaningful life only specifically
with humility
and like the rubber shab explains
actually also in the in the uh
in the famous discourse in the in the
year tough race
that in order let's say you want to try
and understand what is what does hashem
really want what is the halacha what
does hashem really want
the only way to be able to come because
you have to learn this you've done that
you have to comprehend you have to think
the way to come to the truth of the
torah only through humility
when a person is humble you'll get to
see the truth the emma's hashem what
hashem really wants
and like the the republic as an example
we all know that in the talmud there was
two
uh uh big schools of that always had
opposing opinions based in the school of
baysharmai
and the school of base hill now the fact
is most cases the halacha is like basilo
now why was the case like a base hillary
explains according to this
because we know that the house of basil
the people from asilo
they were very very humble and they were
very very tolerant of other people
and because they were so humble they
were able to reach
the cons the conceit the essence of god
in the most concealed places so when we
act with humility it allows us to
connect to god on the most deepest
and most powerful places in the world to
know the halal of the terror i'm about
to become
connected to god in the deepest levels
so based on this trevor says that you
can say
and explain that um we learned we
mentioned before that what happened
with the on the second day of nissan
who's the one
that um brought the sacrifices
it was the uh the from from the tribe of
soccer
and we know that the tribe of usaka what
do they do they're the ones a that learn
torah
and also they're the ones that advise
all the tribes to bring the sacrifice
so it was a they learned torah they knew
torah
and they not only knew toyo but they
they
they advised the the all the other
tribes to bring the
sacrifices why because the reason why
isakka came second right after yehuda
is because you sucker because they
learned torah and they learned it with
bitter they learned a humility
just like we know that
when it came to a xiaomi based hillo
even though they still all
so to speak was always with the correct
one but they always gave honor to bashar
might they let bashami go first
why because humility is key and because
they
they had humility base hillary and you
sucker that learned terror had humility
therefore they were able to come up to
the correct
um insight and direct understanding of
torah
and um the representative not only is
there a shah but many many
discourse he explains the whole idea
that through humility
you're able to get to the emes and the
clarity of torah
and based on this driver explains that's
why because they learned torah
and because they had the humility that
caused
them um
to to to inspire everyone about about
the sacrifices because the sac
what do the sacrifices do the sacrifice
you mentioned before but it transforms
and it keeps the world
alive and why because since they learned
torah and they learned with humility
so they were able to reach the essence
of torah the way it's connected to the
infinite part of hashem
and therefore they were able to feel and
realize
that the ultimate of learning torah is
to fulfill what
the will and the and and the vision of
the ets of hashem
which is to make a derivative you know
sacrifices is all about breaking day
without china but how are they able to
get to it
because they had humility and based on
this rather explains
what it says what does it say
hashem called moisrabenu by yadav hashem
and then hashem spoke to him
and he told him adam kiyakriff adam
will they'll that will become close to
hashem and bring a sacrifice
and so even though
that any time it was vayidaber there was
a deburr
so kriya was always first what does
kriya mean it's an expression of love
so not only was it first technically it
was before the love came first before
the deeper
but actually it was in a very much a
much higher level it wasn't just
that it came technically first but it's
actually it was it was qualitatively
first
because korea the expression of calling
with love is much higher
than actually speaking and that's why it
says
it
doesn't say who called why
why doesn't say who called because the
calling of of the
vayikra comes from the essence of the
infinite light of hashem
which is much higher than ut kevke
savaya dabber it says
but by yikra it's actually deeper it's
from the essence of hashem
but nevertheless even though that the
kriya was before the deeper because
again because it's much higher
it's coming from the essence of hashem
now even though it's two different
things korea is an expression of love
and deeper is telling you what to do
but nevertheless even though it's
technically separate but there is a
connection
between calling and deeper what's the
connection
and the revere explains very simple
because when it speaks about deep or
hashem is saying
something or an amir some is instructing
something or c void there's a
commandment
so over there it always says utk valve
it's coming from the level of your kevke
and like we find in all any time where
it says
in the toy room it says hashem et cetera
cree on the other hand
is coming out from atsumus from the
essen version so
when we say vayikra vayadabur what does
that mean
so the goal is that since by yikra is
from atmos the goal is that
atsuma should be drawn down into the
deeper of torah
so the yikra they were saying is it's
much higher and much deeper it comes
from the abstinence the essence of
hashem
is good why is it saying it first
because the goal is to draw
in atsmus the highest levels into the
deeper hashem
which and generally what's that
referring to to drawing
in the torah the way it's in its source
the way it's connected in atmos and
whoever says
it's it's like to connect this to what
we find that when it comes to vayikra
so we know that if you give a look in
the comments so you're spelled with
rice and the olive is a small olive
and we all know the famous story that
when the tsunami zedek
asked when he was three years old he
asked his grandfather the altareba
how come it's a small olive and the
altered told him
that the reason why it's a small olive
because the aleph resembles what
humility and um
humbleness of maestro beno which what
does that mean and he explains
moisture mainly even though moisture
knew his qualities and he knew his gifts
but he realized he it's not his it's all
a gift from hashem
and on the contrary the knowing of his
qualities made him even more humble
i like the thereafter it goes into a
tremendous detail of the story
but again my yikra is the small olive
from the story you see that the aleph
resembles humility
they realize that even though we have
tremendous qualities but the qualities
aren't ours
and differently different we're even
more excited and more humble than hashem
gave us all these qualities
now thereby now takes it a step further
so
now if the question is beautiful lesson
that's why the olive is small
but why is it specifically in the word
vayikra
why are we learning specifically why is
specifically in the word vayikra
and there ever explained something very
powerful but because
moishe of bena was so so humble so he
was
merited to the revelation of a yikra
what is the revelation of the ikra that
we as like we just explained
that is drawing down the torah the way
it's in atmos
like on the level of your soccer in
other words because moisha abano had his
humility
so he was able to draw down the vayikra
where yuka resembles atmos and that's
why it's specifically in the word
vayikra
and based on this trevor explains that's
why the yikra
which is referring to the source of
absence the way it comes down to this
world
says specifically by sacrifices why
because
even though by any time there was a
deeper any turn there was in a mirror
any time it was at sivoi there was
hashem called first
but this idea that torah is sourced
in the essence of hashem where is it
specifically revealed
it's revealed specifically in sacrifices
when it comes down to the lowest level
to transform the world and to make the
world
a physical place for hashem
that's why it's just specific by vahreh
now there ever says something very very
powerful he says like this
it's known that every single jewish
person
has a component of moisture a banana
within us we all have moisture within us
not only moisture but also the humility
of moisture we all have
we all have the humility of moisture
banana and therefore itself understood
so when hashem says by yikra el moisha
if we all have the component of moisture
within us we all have the
humility of moisture so the vayikra
mushroom hashem is calling moisture and
he's calling each and every one of us
and specifically now that we're learning
this this this
this torah portion of this verse and
when hashem calls for equal moisture
this gives us
the power and the ability on doing the
spiritual sacrifices
which means elevating our animal soul
elevating the physical world
and this is also preparation um for the
uh
literal sacrifices we're going to have
mentioned when mashiach comes
and then we're going to do the salah
foreign
we're going to do with the beast
mcdonald's the way you want it like the
rats and hashem
which will emit some happening the base
how make this ashleeshi
in the third temple shiibana the ameno
which will be built very soon
will be mamas very very soon and very
very quickly so it's obviously a very
very powerful hasidic discourse on many
many levels
but i think the one major i mean there's
many major messages one major message
the message is that when we practice
humility we'll be able to reach
the emis of torah about to reach
atmos airing safe and be able to draw
down
literally from the highest places from
the essence of hashem the terror that he
gave us
so we'll be able to continue to
transform and elevate the world
and keep the world strong and god
willing
um uh mr sam before our next class will
all be together in your
and blessed s
