Welcome to our class onus. We're going
to be learning a beautiful discourse in
the Reb. The name of the discourse is
called
the Reb said this discourse in Shabas
that year is the 20th day of the month
of in the year
41 years ago. So again theic discourse
is based on the verse where it says
God fed us the mana says that the alterb
points out inic discourse in the
beginning of the Torah portion and
there's also comments and explanations
on this discourse inra from the alter
grandson
and he explains that mana is on the
level of do like the verse says asal
and this do is the same do that God's
going to use in the future to resurrect
the dead which is basically also the
idea of tal
and this is what kazal say that when God
resurrects the dead with tremendous
compassion
because tal is raim tal is tremendous
compassion now even though to draw down
the tal and the level of rahim
Rob him from on high through Hashem. But
the fact is nevertheless even though it
comes from Hashem but we know Torah is
everlasting which means it's an
everlasting lesson for every single
person and every single time and
something that we can learn a practical
lesson as we know that Hashem says we're
created to serve Hashem. So obviously it
has to do with our serving Hashem. In
other words, the drawing down of the
tremendous compassion in the future is
also dependent on our work in the times
of gullus and that's why we also have
this work today as well. So rabbit says
to understand the idea of this
tremendous compassion.
So he gives an introduction ontora and
the other discourse as well to explain
that there's two different levels in
souls like it says
I plantarati is basis royal I planted
the Jewish people zerodom vzera a seed
of a of of human be human being and a
seed of an animal what does that mean
these two ideas of adom of human being
or behem animal there's many many levels
and not only that the you also have the
way these two levels of and is in the
level of spheroids in the spirit. What
is the idea of the in is referring to
the which is the six mid which is called
the the man on high what is the behema
that's referring to as we know the legs
go down lower than
now since you have the level of behemoth
down here which is lower than where it
goes down to the worlds of bri
so obviously
you also to have this level also in the
world of which that's a source for it
and what what is the source for it
that's spirit of malus so malus is the
connected idea of and z is is is the
idea of and that's why it says
what does that mean it's referring to z
face why becausera as we know has 248
pits of commandments which correspond to
the to the spheres of z the small face
that the the image is um three times
nine times nine and and and with the
that that that that cause it to grow and
that's that's how you get to the 248.
However, the behemoth there's is it is
has a diff different different amount of
limbs. Now even though the the animal
has limbs but we know that um
from from the the the Abram and that and
part of the animal you not allow to eat
but the fact is it's not it's not the
same amount as 248 which is specifically
by a human being. Now
this level of behemoth which we said is
connected idea of spiralus
is always standing and yearning that it
always wants to go to its source. Why?
Because it's down here. So doesn't want
to be down here. It wants to go to s it
s it source and like says
the lower level of a light which is
called the dark light is always yearning
and it wants to go to the higher light
and like it says clearly
which means it's it's singing and it
doesn't it doesn't it doesn't get quiet
and it wants to go to the higher light
and like it says in in in Psalms Psalm
In other words, that the the the the
lower level of light is not quiet and it
wants to always go higher and higher and
like the expression is mas until when it
wants to keep on going higher. Now when
you meditate
on this level on the lower level of the
light which basically said is called
zera. So then you have you you feel bad
and you have raim you have you have
tremendous compassion in other words you
you're you're you're feeling bad and the
fact that the soul came down to this
lowest level and what does that mean
practically when you meditate on the
idea the soul came down from the highest
level down to the slowest level which
obviously is a tremendous downgrade and
the soul wants to when it's yearning to
go to go to its source and when a person
meditates on that you come to tremendous
compassion in your soul You feel bad for
the soul. Now this level of compassion
which comes from the meditation on the
fact that the soul came down to this
world that's based on the the
comprehension that we're able to
meditate. In other words, the cabalistic
terms is called the taka. How much am I
able to awaken? And that creates the
awakening above which basically is all
based on the amount that we're able to
create create create that awakening on
high. But that's the lowest level of
rahim. But then there's even a rahim
even a greater compassion and that comes
as a gift from Hashem
from the source of compassion and I can
explain at length in
that there's a level of an awakening on
high which is higher than the awakening
on high which comes through our
awakening know the first level you have
you have an awakening and therefore
Hashem gives you the other one comes
totally from Hashem much higher and
that's why it says that Hashem only
rests in something which is basically
complete. In other words where where
where it's there on its own and that's
be coming from the drawing down from the
level of Hashem how great Hashem is
which is higher than the city of God and
even higher than the level of calling it
high and that's called which comes on
high that the human being cannot reach
that level and that itself there's even
a higher level and like we say in our
prayers
with tremendous compassion have
compassion on us which is higher than
regular compassion.
tremendous compassion and that is that
when a person does their work on on a
complete level in this world you do our
void and then what you create that the
the spirit returns to Hashem that Hashem
gave it in other words that the the soul
goes up to its source from the place
where it came down because from the
place where it gives it obviously it's
very very high and we know Hashem gave
gives what he gives it a he gives with
with with tremendous abundance and
you're able to reach obviously even a
higher place So based on what we just
learned before, we'll understand idea of
what of the man which we said before is
what's man and we said it's the level of
tal in other words. But what's the
difference between talu and gisham and
rain in other words because in order for
rain to come down we have to pray for
it. We pray and that's what caused the
rain to happen. Obviously it comes from
you pray for the rain. However it says
and sometimes the rain comes sometimes
it doesn't come. But when it comes to do
it says it doesn't stop. There's always
do. is always do and what what why is
always do because that's coming from
Hashem that's which comes from comes
from Hashem without you without having
to do our work and that's like the idea
of tal why is that because the bread
that comes from the earth how does that
happen it comes by doing the work person
has to plant and and and to plan for it
to come to come out or like it says
clearly in
Hashem's going to bless you but you have
to do the work after you do your work
yeah you get the tremendous blessings
and like it says clearly in the Torah
planted and then he found wow was 100
times as much obviously was a tremendous
blessing but it came after he he did his
work but but on the other hand mana is
like the d the the do which is basically
it's it's food from heaven it has
nothing to do with you're putting in
your effort and that's based idea that
where hashem is basically rest where
it's totally complete hashem just gives
and there's no there's no there's no
need to put any effort in it's it's
always there and let's expl It's
explained in the in the in the discourse
of the man that the creation of man the
creation was on Shabbat.
Why? Because Shabas is that's not a
place where you can work during the week
you work. Shabas comes from a place you
don't have to work but nevertheless even
though it was created on Shabbas which
means it's a gift but it comes down
where only during the week in other
words drawing down the the tal in an
internal way which basically is piaic
come down into this physical world and
it comes to now to the people that then
afterwards you have to go ahead and and
work with it etc that um um and and
every single person reached the level of
of the tal which means of of the mana
which you got every single person
received on their
And that's why it says in the in the in
the verse, God fed us the mana.
You didn't know
your ancestors didn't know. In other
words, the level of man is which we said
already we learned this which is the
tremendous compassion. It's higher than
the level of understanding and
comprehension. You don't know higher
than your your your your your ancestors
knows even though the ancestors the
chariots and they're totally on a level
of accepting to whatever Hashem wants
but they cannot reach that level because
it's this level of where is the lea
that's that's 100% complete. But on the
other hand, this what he mentions the
patriarchs because through the fact that
he he fed us the mana that also affected
the the as well that they should also
receive from that level even though they
did not receive it in the past but they
also receive it as well. Now today's day
and age the effect of the mana is what?
To unify the soul with the body when the
soul is in the body and know when a
person eats. So you obviously you stop
god forbid there's a soul leaving the
body if you don't eat your starvy soul
the soul is going to leave the body how
so that's what the what's the m does
today it unifies the soul and the body
however in the future mashia comes
there's going to be something in
addition that through the dal what's
going to happen is we're going to have
the the dead is going to get resurrected
and know you're going to create the
union between the soul and the body and
which is obviously a greater revelation
much on a much higher level but
afterwards
this is also going to come down in
physical level like in the in the man
literally which is going to create the
unification between the soul and the
body because the fact is in the future
we're also going to eat the mana like we
know the famous the famous discussion in
the in the books what what blessing are
you going to make on the man the future
Mashia comes why because in reference to
the man in times of the desert there's
no question because we were commanded
about the making the blessing afterwards
however the first blessing we know is
only rabbitic And um most of the
blessings were were were enacted by the
rabbi. So the question is what's the
blessing to be when Mashiah comes? But
in any way by doing our work in the six
days of the week, which is the six days
of the week, but also in the six the
6,000 years, we're going to merit very
very soon to the Shabas of the future.
And like we said, the main the main the
creation of Mamas and Shabbat because
Shabas and is really really one. And
just like that, everybody agrees that in
Shabbat we receive the Tory. Why?
Because Shabas and Tur is really one.
And by learning these ideas, these
powerful ideas and especially in the
discourse of the starting with the
alterba up until the the the the Reb of
our generation which he took over from
the previous. So we know that the Saddic
makes a decree and and makes it happen
and we come to the level of the dead is
resurrected. The souls in the body,
we're going to have the the the
shabar and the levaton. And we know the
big argument between the Rambam and the
Ry and afterwards and especially in the
in the works of with the ruling is like
the like according to the ones that say
that the the main reward is going to be
when the souls are going to be
resurrected when the souls are going to
be in the body and the contrary the soul
is actually going to receive its energy
energy from the body and finish it says
this mit will happen very very soon and
very very quickly in our days. So you
see the real power of the mana. The mana
obviously brings on rahim and let's hope
and pray that we all merit to the
ultimate mana with the coming of Msiah.
And our next class will be your have a
great and blessed week. Shabu to
