Tanya By Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz Sec 3 Chap. 6 Tesuvah = We have the power to take G-D out of exile

so welcome to tonight's town class we are studying Tanya the book of Tanya the third section eager is a true VAR and we are studying pay read love the sixth chapter now as they always say every chapter in tanya is foundation of mysticism because this is the this is the bible of mysticism so everyone is unique everyone's host so to speak stands on its own two feet and obviously it's all connected because ultimately it's all one so tonight's chapter chapter six and the Gaza truth is a very very important chapter the reason is because it shows us how powerful we are not in an arrogant way but the fact is the power that we have the power that we have that unfortunately we couldn't take God the infinite God and bring him into exile and it was God who revealed God that everywhere God revealed and we get our life force from God and we can take that God and schlep him and get this it's called schlepping bring them down yanking down into exile now that's obviously had a negative side so why don't to focus too much in that even though it talks about it but I want if I want it sort of according this chapter the positive side that we have the power we have the power to take God out of exile now truth is we've brought him into exile that's it let's let's keep that inside let's focus on the positive side the positive side is that we have the power to take God out of exile we have the power FP management that's a tremendous score a tremendous you know merit but on the other hands and strands responsibility because since we have the power to take a mouth obviously at the peril to bring them in also in this chapter the Altidore answers the famous question why do bad people succeed bad people's be a very good person why the people right that people do bad things why did it while it's successful and the other addresses in this chapter so let's deal with the chapter so the other begins by stating that we discussed last week in chapter 5 that in the times of the temple the time to the temple it means what does it mean the times in temples we discussed at length last week God has revealed God was revealed that means you walked in the street you saw God you felt God every interaction was another great you know sadiq another great righteous person you spoke about toro you spoke about MIT's vote reality was God godliness player people prayed a lot people studied a lot people didn't mid-tone a lot who would even think of God forbid disconnecting from God or sinning or anything I mean that was life life was about the connection so we were connected to God in a very very powerful way now what happens is when you're connected to God such a powerful way if God forbid you get disconnected you know what happens you are disconnected like if somebody's for example used to having real you know fresh air healthier eating healthy food drinking healthy drinks and he's 100 like a purist they call them well we have some guys that into this stuff here greenie whatever it was and you're totally on this like clean neat and you you purify the air in your home and your work etc what happens is you become so we find that God's a bit if you go into a place where it's like people smoke and the negative energy you just it's like you look at you literally come sick versus somebody it's exposed to it all the time can sit there and doesn't even know the difference now what does that mean if your so the logic should be the opposite if you're so healthy so big deal so you anything you you were like in a polluted area versus a guy that's so polluted that should be harming him more but you see the opposite someone that's so unhealthy someone that's so disconnected from health and reality guess what happens doesn't affect them why so the out I explained is very simple because the times of the temple when we were pure and God was reality and that's the only reality we had so there was no other reality so the minute you got disconnected from God you stopped praying you stopped studying Torah you stopped it wasn't a punishment there was nothing to you there was no way for you to get energy from what can you plug into there was no other source to have life physicalized spiritual logged anything there was no other source there's no other outlet the only you wanted it your honor that you wanted a high in time some temporal guess what you did where you go hang out in the temple in Jerusalem in Sydney Shiva and some kollel in some minion in some meditation club in some you know cabbalistic society that was that was a whole Alice Dalits if you didn't have that you had nothing you had nothing so there was no place to get energy or life force now that wasn't the times of the temple and that's why people the minute they got disconnected from God you know what happened they don't whether at 50 years old 60 years old or sometimes even right away pending what he did that's what government discussed at length in last week's chapter in Chania comes along the after me says what happens now in dilute and we're going to take you so to speak in the back roads what happens in the hood so there's a there's a verse that says I am show harima have income that means what does that mean that when a person sins God our mother a father right is with us by God for someone gets into trouble today who comes to bail you out your parents very good brother or sister a good friend sin other words so when you get into trouble when we when we sin today who was there with us God's with us and the author says this is called Sayid so it means a secret of godless hash cleaner and godless creature means that the sheen of God is an exile now essentially the outer use the word side it's a secret why is it a secret because the whole idea Pina which is God's infinite power could be in galute is a secret it doesn't make sense God should be in exile God is infinite but nevertheless that's the way it works based on the verse when we sin God comes down gunk God comes down to exile with us now so what does that mean God comes into exile what does that mean let's let's try to understand it without on that altar explains as follows again let's create a mental board here you have Orion soft the infinite light of God then you have something which is called clip at no yuga and I'll explain each one and then you have Citra Accra the other side what does that mean so you have the infinite light of God good cave of K which is basically the infinite light of God the pure light of God and in where God's presence is felt in a pure sense what is being revealed their nose for example if you see a safer Torah if you see someone sincerely praying when you're doing a mitzvah or when you're eating culture in your studying Torah so if you're able to look if you had the power to see the spiritual energy that's going up and down when you're praying right and you're studying Torah when you're doing let's be able to see behind the scenes or behind the veneer the physical veneer what would you see you would literally see God and godliness it's not just a physical human being but you would see behind the physical person praying and behind the physical studying and hind doing them it's phone you would literally see godly energy Wow godly energy that's pretty powerful now it's pure because you give a look someone's studying Torah it's we know it's God's Torah don't want you studying Torah or if you're praying you're praying to God or if you're doing a mitzvah so God is revealed and God is there as you took a neutral moment and you made it to a God revealed moment so if God revealed you're almost like could see the youth cave of Cain in a certain level now that is one category then there's something which is called clip off no God what is clip out no God so cleaver comes in the word she'll and Noga is actually means it's touches it's touching what does that mean it's not so take for example take for example give you an example take for example you you you're hungry and you want to eat let's say in Irish so you go to the store you buy an R and if you have a tree pick the orange off the tree we're in Florida we're lucky you could pick oranges of trees and you want to eat the orange what he do you take the orange make a bracha right providing us a kosher orange it comes from a tree that where he went through three years etc but that's about the culture tree right everything is fine you take the out ready dude you just bite into the orange no what do you do you got to peel it what its appeal it want it to peel it why you just eat the whole thing because God loves us God loves us think about this God loves us and he wants us to have a fruit that's clean and that doesn't have any toxins and sprays or anything in there so God created on the on the orange the part that we're gonna eat he created a shell it's called the Clipper and this clipper think about it it's a funny thing so I can eat the orange I can eat the shell but the shell is touching the orange so if I can eat the orange I came to shell the shell touching the orange and the answer is very very simple because the orange is the edible part the shell it's called the shell but on the other hand is touching it what does that mean is the shell bad or good it's not bad and it's not good to the sense where you eat it it's neutral it means it's there to protect that's its purpose so it knows that you see an example for an orange so same thing also when a person does a mitzvah so that already just like eating the orange person prays that's like eating the are don't person studies but what happens if you have something neutral so take for example take for example if you have let's say some food on the table food drink etc now is the drink and food holy it's not holy per se its drinking food is it impure providing its kosher its I am pure so what categories go into it goes into the category creeped out Noga means it's like middle-of-the-road it's not there's nothing wrong with it providing its kosher it's not holy because it's just a piece of food so it's neutral territory we can take that and downgrade it or upgraded we have a choice we have the power to downgrade it upgraded what does that mean very simple if we go ahead and say okay you know I really want to go pray I want to study any energy I need to eat let's regard me the world so I'm gonna go ahead and make a blessing and we had qivana I'm gonna have intentionally make the blessing and I make the blessing and then I eat the food and they make a blessing afterwards and then I go sit down study Torah or pray or do a mitzvah what did I do I actually elevated the food why have they elevate the food kinda made a blessing on it and then use the energy it gave me for good and godly things so I took something neutral I elevated it so when you see food is it bad neutral or holy it depends right now it's neutral now we could elevate it God for we could downgrade it if you go ahead and pick up your eating you don't make a blessing and with that you go ahead and you do something terrible so you took the easy to make a blessing on it and B you took the energy and you use it to do something not good so you actually downgraded it so now so that's Cleveland toga what is clip of sitri Accra totally the other side like if you see something which is a hundred percent counted or God wants so anything which would be so to speak a negative precip God says don't do this don't do that and that thing exists and nothing happens that comes from CLE potency trauma now you can ask a question if God created the world that everything comes from God right so if everything doesn't God is holiness and God yes clip up no go from God yes Citra accra from God so if everything's from God what's the set rocker and Ogun you could do so what's that all about and the answer is very very simple like for example you have you're excited about something and you put a lot of energy into it so when you're excited about it and you put the work into it how do you do it you do it with what with a big smile but why don't you have to do something you totally have zero interest in doing it a matter of fact you actually think it's the wrong thing to do but you have to do it for whatever reason so you do it are you doing with the same energy then when you're excited about something oh it's like doll neutral language okay I'll do it why don't you do something you actually resent doing you feel it's wrong but whatever reasons your job it's your responsibility exciting you don't even believe in it so action you're putting a negative energy into it so what is when you do something you need to do with enthusiasm and excitement you believe in it and you're gonna fuel it with great energy or you can just be neutral and you don't have like doll energy or you can actually do it with resentment and you're literally gonna create bad energy same thing also everything comes from God but in certain things for example Torah and mitzvot and prayer what's the energy like oh my gosh you can feel it's God you see it's God you looking at or used to do look at the mitzvot you look at there's someone doing a myth so you look at someone praying oh that's holy God and you see in the person is holy and godly what happens when a person is basically when you look at something neutral it's neutral it's not moving either way we have the power to elevate it enough but ultimately the path the energy comes from God a lower level power with Citra Accra the power is what it's even much lower now we get as we ready to discuss last week in Tonia and two weeks ago already where we get our energy from which part of God the part that he gives like negative energy to sit Rara or no you go for example all animals in the world right where do they get their energy from they get it from a low level of energy of God same elokim as we discussed in Chania or in garrotted rumor angels training look in and that creates quickly part Noga where do we get our energy from you came off k the infant name of God that's what we get an energy from now what happens when we we there get the energy from youth k buff cats where you get it from we're connected to God we're connected there's no disconnect but when we study Torah and we pray and we do mitzvot so what is the dry what does the revealed energy in us get clean okay so at that time we have two energies flowing within us they are essential energy which comes from use keep up okay that's the source but also the revealed energy is that it's from youth cave of K they're concealed and the revealed energy both come from the infinite part of God what happens God from we start sinning that means we do things that God doesn't want us to do whether any we transgressed any of the negative preserves or we miss out on some opportunity to do the positive precepts what happens then so we're still connected to God we don't lose that connection but in the revealed level are we connected right now to the youth cave of care we're getting our source from there no because if we did we would do the right things we wouldn't do the wrong things so we were on the other hand where do we have the energy to move to do the stuff that we're doing so we're not getting it again from the youth k-pop groups in the reveal part we're actually getting it from either clip but enoguh just like all the animals so we act animalistic Li and we act out of instinct where we just shoot from the hip or just you know rent our mouth off without thinking for a minute is that coming from the earth cave of K again the source everything from youth cave of K but there's a go through clip at Noga yes when you don't think when you think it's kedusha its holiness when you don't think and you just shoot it out I neither say what you want to say you know what happens it's going through what clip onobu now the author brings here and Tanya pretty powerful stuff pay attention he brings in as oh are that what happens when in action we do the wrong things we behave against God or in speech we say things which are contrary to what God wants to say or even god forbid in our thoughts we think the wrong thoughts we think about sinning we think about inappropriate thoughts that we shouldn't be thinking about you know what happens now we're still thinking we're still talking we're still doing it's not what God wants so we're not getting the end in a revealed way from youth cave of k will be getting it from so the Zoeller says doctorate quotes they saw it sometimes opinion he's quoting the ZOA you know we get energy from from cleat boat and says rock wow we're getting our energy even clip off from sitting - drock row now so what does that mean practically if we're getting our energy from cleveland soap opera what's what's where do we get our energy from we got it from the earth clip of k but it's coming through clip it on and set rocker so what does that mean practically what does that mean practically no it's weig well that would that means it's very very simple we're taking the god's name you cave of k the last hey which is mouth would that's the part that that's the part that so to speak the the connector between the infinite power of God and the awesomeness world right we are getting ready for news came up here but goes in your the hey Rob hey so what's our connection to which actual letter hey hey that's our connection but what happens when we go ahead and and we don't do what God wants thought speech and action horses always say we're actually taking that hey you ready and we're bringing it down we're yanking it down into the world of cetera so not only are we getting damages in said Rara we're actually bringing God's energy down into the world of theater opera now in other words in other words we at every single moment this is beautiful this is the beauty of it this is the beauty after has something so beautiful now he says guess what every one of us we have 100% freedom of choice and he spells it out you know what's have choice what's our freedom of choice every single moment I can choose that I want my energy don't want to be plugged in to Satara which is an unholy place or I want to plug into the infinite light of God and as we have the plug and we could choose sutra cara clip atmega or get cave of pain how do we affect that choice very simple if we think positive thoughts if we're optimistic if we have faith if we have trust in god what does it sound like we'll be plugging into you cave of K the infinite power of God excellent if we speak words of Torah we take out a homage and we read some comics or a mission or a Talmud or we and we take out a prayer book as we pray so where we plugged me into your cave of K so a we're elevating ourselves and B we're not causing God god forbid to have to go down to some low level we have I'll take one second we have a hundred percent freedom of choice or god forbid we start thinking things which we shouldn't think about everyone knows their thoughts and God for we say things we shouldn't be saying and we do things we shouldn't be doing we at that moment are choosing to plug into where low level energy we are choosing we're plugging in so we at every moment have a choice where we want to plug in powerful we have free of our choice now the fact that you chose yesterday figure out what happened yesterday yesterday is gone take right now right now I right now think about compounding is i right now I'm a hundred percent control of my life I can decide I'm going to think positive thoughts I'm gonna say positive things I'm gonna do positive positive acts I'm gonna pray I'm gonna study do my throat where you plugged in youth cave of K or I can god forbid nothing good things not say the right things not do the right things where I plugging into clipping of mister opera one hundreds of my choice yes what's your question okay nice high level sure yes great yes yes 100% absolutely absolutely yes 100 percent you elevated you see exactly very good when you basically take something which is neutral and you elevate it you actually created now any elevation in yourself you actually elevated and that's matter of fact the reason wall I we and someone neutral things so we should have and that's our job in this world is to Lu valid to elevate all the neutral into positive territory or God for we can downgrade it but opening what do we want do we want to make we want to create positive positive color in that negative current now so what happens like this the author it quotes quotes the verse that says Yaakov kevanna closer what does that mean what does it mean if you have a shrink right think about a string so if you have a string one hand here at one end here this way right one hand it one one side here one side here now a you know in a string it's one string so the way this let's see it's stringers for example six feet right maybe it's six foot so one that one side is here one side is here now I guess look at this is very very simple if you pull the string down so what happens the string goes down but what goes with it the top part knows in a string how many heads are there to a string there's two heads this is a head this is a head even though ones on the bottom it's here L in the two heads so the one heads here ones here if you take this string and you pull it down guess what you're pulling with you you're pulling the top part down so in other words if we we're holding down hold on - which part of the string this happen about them the bottom God's the top where the bottom and we're connected with the string - god that's our connection now if we keep it where it is and like you said take neutral and try to elevate it we're connecting more things to God when it's sitting in your cave of K in its proper seat but what happens we're holding on to the string and we're not and reals we don't can't let go of it we're connected by the string there's no this connection but we so this is us on the bottom right let's switch a second no this is right this which one doesn't get right okay this is us on the bottom here right it wants me to write okay the witness is on the bottom is we have two dolls right do we have like a puppet show here well I think this is us right in the bottom so when we pray and we study Torah and we do mitzvot guess what God is sitting in the right spot we're plugged in and life is beautiful the connection is flowing beautifully but what happens also we decide to take a journey into negative thought land right into the negative speech land into negative action and we're going in all to these CLE potency tracker places we're anybody lower than Clippard Noga oh my gosh 11 to God guess what he left his hind seat because he's following you he wants to be there for you so you're actually pulling down gone down into the loot you got it we're pulling gone down to the loot so God when we sin look we just did we pulled the hay that was connected to the earth cave of we disconnected him from the youth cave of and he's following us who's causing him to go down we are obviously once we basically the second we decide Oh guess what I'm not doing it anymore that into God it's a string so as you go right back to your spot guess what God goes back to his spot cease all right very simple I'm sorry what what do you mean no but when God when you come down so God comes down now when God comes down to this area guess what he's still giving energy but what kind of energy is giving he's giving you low-level energy he's not connected to infinite part right now when God gives out that low-level energy guess what since you brought him down here we did so guess who gets first for dinner we get first for dinner we got a nice portion of dinner but guess what it's not the it's not the high level dinner it's a cheap dinner I'm not gonna say means the stores now all right so I don't want to get involved in a lawsuit Amaro defaming certain stores but the point is we come down guess what yeah so God's with us we'll always have God with us and guess what either way you suffer you're always gonna get and lunch and dinner and snacks also the difference is if God is up there gets the kind of lunch ninny gang pure right raw organic you know healthy stuff okay sake sushi whatever you guys like with culture right but if God forbid comes down you'll still get dinner but it's gonna be sawdust and you're looking sore so a lot of people of of sawdust okay now so what happened is like this so that's why what doctors say why do people live a long life very simple because how are they living where are they getting their energy from up here no not even here they're getting you from down here they're getting different Cleveland Sbrocco so there are they alive biologically yes are they getting energy yes we're the energy coming from high level of low level energy low level so the fact that they're alive and they're going to live many many years the question is what kind of quality life is that what kind of quality of life is that low low low level low quality of life who wants that kind of life now the pro is that the pro is that we the pro today is that since we're alive guess what we have the power to the Juma because the info was in the times of the temple and we got disconnected boom we were dying it's over now what happens is boom we ain't down we're getting a lower level of energy finer energy but guess what we're alive so the pros you always look at the positive side the negative side is we're living in the life that gets what we can go down and we're still alive but we're like hemorrhaging but the pro is to guess what we can do true uh we can repent and what happens when we're paying you don't happen to repent your pend now we can start living again what high level so we have a chant we have a second chance we've been thoroughly many chat with me let's not look for many this let's get the wine let's get out and let's the state I'll stay high there but we have the power to do true ver so what does true mean so here that will explains beautifully what is true VAR true ver actually comes from two words touch ov and this is beautiful Tasha hey it's two words touch of hey what does touch of hey because you're returning the hey you're hey bub and the hey right when you when you sin you yank the hey out and he's following you along on this journey in galoot we bring down gone to the loot torture opinions and we return we see no no no god I don't want to have this low love that ng I want to have pure ear have direct connection you came off gay I just want to pray and study in Douma throat I want to be able to be think positive right and feel positive and have a lot of faith and trust let me only say positive things aren't enough inspiring things right let me do great things guess what happens now we're it back we did true huh we touch up we returned to the high level we're at a clip of Sakurako for sure well add a clip of no girl also we're not getting our very talented include but no girl we're living in a very high level but connected you get the creative of K and guess what we just did we put the hey back where it belongs we put the hey back where it belongs to another so in other words when we go out of galoot when we go out of Exile guess who goes out of exile with us God so this chapter chapter 6 paragraph is a beautiful chapter because it really shows you many many things first of all that unfortunately when we go to when we go to exile so it seems like we're alive we're not really living though it should be its low-level life the good thing is that we have the power to go out of it and we go out of it boom we're back back to normal that's one major point point number two it shows you that how wicked people can live and be successful because it's low-level life it's not a high level life and the third major point of teaching us is that unfortunately we go into the load we get over down and we pull God into Gullit but on the positive spin I think that's basically the the positive message this chapter that we have the power to take our Adam galoot God is an exile but we have the power to take him out very simple how do we take our exile and it's very very easy to like that will explain the first part of Tonya everyone has the power to do so God he's always asking you to transform yourself that you should be a different person one thing like he says there change your thoughts now you don't have to agree disagree you just gotta change your thoughts change your thoughts the happy thoughts the positive thoughts optimistic thoughts or thoughts of faith thoughts of redemption to change them start thinking differently speak will say words of Torah say words of prayer be grateful be thankful we recognize people that did good for you put yourself speech change your speech and then change your action you don't happen you do all that you literally take you out of yourself out of galoot and more importantly we take God out of gold and think about it we can have us simple people have the power that we could take God out galoot so what are we waiting for let's all take them out of galoot chapter six a great chapter we have the power to take God out of galoot
