Tanya By Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz Sec 3 Chap. 8 High Teshuva = Studying Torah with a passion

welcome to tonight's tanning class we are in the section of Tanya called the garrison truly the third section and we are studying chapter 8 pay requests tonight's chapter is a great great chapter because tonight we're gonna learn about something which is called high level of true though there's low level of truth we discussed last week and we'll recap in a minute and then some will just call the high level of sugar and obviously we all want the high stuff right you want to be in a high spiritual high so we're gonna learn today about the high level of sugar which in short what is the high level of Java studying Torah with passion when the words of Kabbalah is over studying Torah with the helo or chemo which refers to a Vanier and that high level of Trueba now obviously that's the goal we have to get there the question is how do we get to the high level of chuga so the outer begins chapter 8 and he starts off by telling us that in Latin the last chapter of tanya chapter 7 the after the author explained to us and he told us that has one come to chuhwa and again last week was low level of truth how does one come to chuva when a person meditates on the fact that our neshama which is a part of god unfortunately went down and sinned and then something which is a part of God which is in this world when you sin you're taking in a summer your godly soul with you down to the place of sinning and when you go down to sin who comes with you right we have it the string you pulling God with you so you go down God goes down so when a person meditates and the fact that oh my gosh when I sinned when I did something I shouldn't be doing or I didn't do something I could have done no there's two ways of saying one is you transgress a negative precept and the second one is when you have an opportunity to do a missing you don't do the Mitzvah guess what you're pulling gone down with you now when you do that oh my gosh that doesn't feel great so last week we learned in Chapter 7 that when a person thinks about that and a person decides he's not sitting anymore so he returns the hey which is referring to God's name of the earth cave of gate lastly of God's name you return the hey back there swords that is sort of speak the low level true bow which you hush of hey you're taking the second hey and you're returning your back to the place where it belongs now that's what he spoke about last week so this week I'll Torah says when a person takes the Nydia that there's a shuttle went down to this world into the place of Tula place of impurity and you Slough down God in there and a person stops and meditates on that and you start thinking about it like we spoke in the trailer course to think about it you think about the fact that you're a shaman and galute and Sheena God's powerful energies and God looked you know what happens you see oh my gosh it's terrible and you open your heart and you talk to God from your depth in your hearts and you ask God oh my gosh I did this terrible thing it was a simple analogies very very simple let's say you have a very very expensive white shirt silk shirt well maybe may not very fine material and it's very very expensive and very fine and you get a dirty so you can get a dirty and all right if you're a kid a kid when a kid gets a shirt dirty he's happy with if it's clean a dirty doesn't make a difference right he's happy but if you're an adult and you realize oh my gosh it's not meant to be dirty and it gets dirty so you're not happy about it so what do you want to do you want to clean the shirt now in order to clean this shirt the first thing you have to realize that a dirty and it has to bother you that it's dirty once you realize it so they bothers you they're 30 then you start feeling bad then you start having compassion and you really feel bad cuz look I took god this infinite God is pure God and look what I stopped them I slept it into this place which was not a godly place or counter godly whatever you want to describe it and look it's almost like taking God and the simple words we're gonna use is taking ground and shoving them into the sewer you know God you mean a respectful place of a synagogue in a place October on a place of MIT's vote not in places that we bring Don to now unfortunately bring gone to those type of places a in thought and speech no one will take give it thank you thank you and in the speech and in action we shucks got down to the worst places so when a person really feels bad that's when a person is able to walk to start creating the true process but what happens is after explains what happens when you feel bad you awaken you awaken what the you'd gimbal me Toto Rahman we know that sort of certain attributes of compassion and when a person awakens you'd give us mister Ocalan then you're able to affect Trueba how do you affect you were with you when you wake in the good girl is her Aquaman because the 13 attributes of Rahman of compassion what's the source of that the sources comes from the ruts on a Leone which is the will of a Shem the highest the highest part and in the tenth zero because you know we have starting from the bottom you have the emotions you have the intellect and the highest levels ruts own so these thirteen action use come from way from the place of rut zone so you awaken the rocks and all your awakens that you need Grossman's rahman what's the source of the rotten al young so the outer expose like this they're basically in god's name you have this four letters to God's name dizzy good the hey the verb and the hey now in the world of the Spirit in your the first year is referring to hokhmah the hey is referring to B now the valve is the mido the emotions and the last day is Malthus the rot zone is which letter of these four it's not the lot bottom hey because it's mall hood right it's not the bulb because that's the me no that's the emotions it's not the top hey we'll just be now and stop the top view which is hokhmah but everything is in the four letters of God's name so which which letter is it and the answer is it's the actual top of the hood so it's the highest level so rut saw is connected to the highest part of God's name so the person feels bad when you feel bad when you're seriously to think about you feel bad my gospel Christ gone too and it bothers you you awaken the you can also minister Ocalan which comes from the roots and earlier and the will of a sham that a person should be able to do tuba which comes from the dot in the highest in the first letter of the unit now what happens when a person awakens that little dot so because it's coming from a very very high place that has the power to do to create real Coover why there's let's say for example you do something wrong so you do sort of it seems someone break something correct so it's broken so in order to fix it so on a simple level the way you fix it you take the parts together you get glue however you want to put it together but guess what you had a broken thing you have thing that was whole it broke yeah you put it back together you're seeing something that was broken putting back together but then there's a place to be able to go so deep into the item it's not broken another words I just if that's in your answer than it broke you put it back together so it's broken and put it back together why don't you love the down to its source - it's a surf before was even created and then you put it back together like as if it was made from brand-new you're not going to see you made a brand new the same thing also in a person evokes real compassion and I mean you evoke the ruts analogy in the will of our son you're going back to the will of a sham you're going back to manured which is the that was the dot on top of the year there's no room for sitting here and that creates real real real true VAR and that action cleanses any sin not only that when a person does real true VAR from a level where you reach the you it even provides true ver atonement for intentional sins even if someone did something intentionally which is very very hard to do true ver but you'll be able to reach the real compassion be able to reach the deepest places you can even forgive even you can even provide atonement for someone and sin intentionally now what happens when a person does that so we learned last week there wasn't a personal sense when a personal sins it means you disconnecting yourself from God so how do you live if you're this if you're disconnecting from God's what were you breathing from so we explained last week that we are breathing from the clipboard and tsurara what is that a person does true ver you're reconnecting back to where to the infinite part of God and you don't get your life force from Cleveland and says Brava so true but we'll take you to the place where you go back to you the to the original source now so in other words like this so when a person does true blood there's two part there's two parts to chuva no other worth in this what happens before a person did before person send you were one with God where the person's sin is you disconnect from God now you disconnect it so the first part of sugar is since you sin you basically soil is soil your clothing you soil the relationship so the first part out has to clean up the mess gotta clean up the mess that's step number one so the first level of truth is you feel bad for what you did it bothers you you draw down you Goodman business rocker and you draw down from the ruts and Allium you draw it down from this little dot from the good and that cleans up the mess but that only brings you back to square one and that's great listen if you only did that that's wonderful but the goal is it's read better than before so how is it better before so that what when you create better before not only are you cleaning up the mess but now you actually want to create a fire relationship with God and you want to be united with God and you want to be connected with God in a very very deep level in other words like this the author explains as follows verse and psalms that the king david says like this he says that when a person wants to connect to God when you got disconnected so he serves us four levels one level is Sameera I'll say it in English he brought Translate sir Mira which literally means going away from evil then he says I say toys do good and then this baka Shalom that means you're searching for peace brutes fail you and you are running and pursuing God so the author explains what what are one of the four levels so he explains it on three levels one is in the relation to God's name you'd cave of K be in the spirit and see in the process so what others I guess let's look at God's name the first one is good ii letters hey the third letter is love and the last letter is hey surly rah means when after a person sitting you want to start doing chuva so there's four levels to chula to the two levels in true vertical that means low level of true VAR in the low level there's a high level of sugar and then there's a high level of sugar in there there's also two levels of hide sugar so the lowest level and it's level listen any level is good but the lowest level of trouve is sarira I'm not doing anything any more bad not doing anything that I don't want to be disconnected from God I might didn't do anything bad what level in the four letters of God's name is it it's the lowest hey the last hey anytime you do something you shouldn't be doing one of the 306 you know it's a judgement no no one's no one's judging anyone else for yourself let's say you get an opportunity to do it for your own to a mitzvah you don't do what God wanted or God says don't do that and you weren't angry did it you always you disconnected from God so first a lot of surah I don't want it I don't want to be disconnected I want to be able to do every minute so I'm able to do right within those would be yes absolutely yes correct so first level surah I don't want to be disconnected what level do you reach when a person says I'm not going to do any trans rest means I'm back on insurance rest a positive positive and I'm not going to not do I'm gonna do every positive pass I'm not gonna miss any and also I'm not gonna transgress a negative precept what level of God sort of speak are you holding on to you're holding on to the lowest hey that's okay so you have you holding on to it now in the spirit which spirit is that that is a sphere of malkos the lowest lowest you are and simple in the in the practical aspect is that's why is it cleaning up the act you're cleaning up you know in the past I maybe didn't do every single positive Matt Smith's I could have done or I transgress on the negative so that's sarira and that's a great place of start obviously the goal is to go higher but that's a great place to start what is that called that's called Truvada talk it's the lowest travel of choorah and basically reason why it's called the chilla talk because you taking the hey of god's name and you're bringing it back to its source that's one level now obviously that's great what is true ver a law in relation to true a tatar of samira but still in the in the total category stole in the category of true benitar or dassera called the truest lamer complete rubra that is a say toys what does hace toys mean I say toy it means that not only I mean I can do anything wrong but actually tell you I want to be in a proactive mode and I want to constantly try to do let's vote I want to try to do another Mitzvah and another Mitzvah and I want to be able to pray and I want about the study I want to make to help someone else do a mitzvah I say it means I'm not just okay I'm not trying to grassing I'm gonna be like I'm gonna check up all the things I have to check off and and botch up that's alright that's great but that's true with at all you want to reach a higher level two beers a cytonemes you proactively asking us of guess what I'm getting up now I'm gonna have a great day today what lets us can we do today okay what else can I study Torah you know what else can I study and then where else can I pray I you know what kind of to help someone else and so on and so forth so as I tell you there's Pro actively proactively trying to grow in your Judaism that's what I'll tell you this now when there's a Saito Eve what happens is which letter in God's name is that we're going from the top to the bottom to the top which letter is that the mob very good the letter Bob what is the verb resemble and the chart of the C wrote the hay was Malthus so through climbing up what is the verb resemble you sold very good and it's also the emotions in other words when a person puts himself into the broad category you know he's doing out now right he's starting to live now he's trying to live why because let's pray let's study let's do another Mitzvah you're not falling asleep you're alive you're activated how do you do that when you ask yourself one simple question I see toys what else good can I do right now let's study a little more tour or let's do another mid-stroke cetera so the minute you ask yourself what else can I do good now now you're in the acetone zone and now you're connected to the love you want up an option above and obviously that is you activate the your me dote and here you didn't just go to cleaning up but here you're actually busy doing what you're busy doing mix votes that's pretty good right we think we can go to sleep or there's more to go okay so there's more so those two levels is true with guitar or true 'very law the higher level of true part Georgia and the Ivory Coast that's true or Selena but guess what we're not done yet because the because King David said back a charlatan what is back at all I mean so it's not only I'm so to speak I'm cleaning up my act not only am i doing mitts vote but now we're gonna get the fire going even more what's fire going even more so I always we have to climb up from the redid the hey we did above now we're going into which one they hey exactly the first day the hi ray what is the highway in the world of sphere oat you guys know this to practice all part of the emotions huh you know that's all part of the emotions customers or party motions we gotta go pyar you jump to drop to high being a very good okay good good it's like playing golf get get in the right hole very we got is a hole-in-one okay be now hold on three whatever got vino so basically Baca Baca I was referring to the hotness of the SEC the first a right the second light of God's name and that refers to be now how does one activate the higher hey has one activate bina by doing what very good excellent by studying Torah so any time you sit down to eight that's a lot study Torah and you sit down and you study to her whether it's Tangier whether it's Cornish whether it's the jail are courses that are Torah basic cetera you know what verses in the Torah and so on and so forth or the Talmud when you're studying Torah guess what is lighting up the hey the highway of God's name your bina think about when you're starting tell what are you doing you're using your beam are using your brain and you're discussing it and studying etc when a person studies Torah now ready data is like not only you think about not only you just okay you cleaning up your action now all you're doing a mitzvah which is getting your emotions excited but you're actually using your highest gifts that you have which is your be not your intellect and through that you're connecting to God then but guess what that's pretty high level come at any time study Torah all day every free moment obviously if you have responsibilities and responsibilities but if ya if you basically used every single free moment free meanings it's a moment that you don't have any specific obligation you have to do whether it's working or taking care of your home your kids or your family your spouse whatever it may be so if you're studying Torah every minute wow that's a pretty high level that's pretty great but guess what King David says one more what's the other one the rod fatal but it's very it comes from to be relative to pursue now obviously if it's one higher level up in the name in the letters of God's name what letter is it duuude Wow so right now from the good in the median in the honest on the childís we wrote what is the user what what zone exactly sometimes it's Kaufmann in this case it's rot zone which means the will of Hashem what does that mean make me say again what does that exist all part of God what is the will of Hashem what is the will of Hashem so there are we there explains the will of a sham refers to the verse it says behold your hair cut the a you but what is the cauldron I mean but hauling everything what does everything mean everything exactly you got it I know I'm pretty impressed late and you guys are alert but Hall means and everything everything and everything what the called Rococo all your ways that means all your ways it means from when you get up in the morning till you go to sleep and even while you're sleeping all your ways it means ways means sleeping eating drinking working it everything 24/7 all your ways ready for this here comes the homework the a you you to know God the means of your eating right now you got to know God through the eating your drinking you got a little car through the drinking you're sitting and relaxing you have to know God in the relaxing you're studying Torah it has to be you're studying not torture that's interesting but because it's God's Torah you're doing am it's not because you like doing this but I'm now saying you shouldn't do much that you're not saying you shouldn't enjoy doing the metal but any mixing you're doing you're doing it why because it's God's nature and it's behold raha ha everything you're doing you should know God that is what the highest level of true ver because think about it every single moment the a you know in God that means if you're knowing God every moment is a possible to be disconnected from God it's a possible if at every single moment I'm asking one question right now how am i knowing God what I'm doing right now I'm knowing God so how's it perhaps we'll have to do God if you haven't it's in front of you for sure you're gonna do it because I'm going down everything new would you transgress no because we're called rocker value that will disconnect me so when a person is living on that level now you're really really living now so a person wants to do Trueba again sarira lowest level cleaning up the mess then I say toys doing mitts out that's great right doing alamut's well then you're studying Torah and then there's Mahal Trocadero everything to do you know in God but then the alto says is even a higher level Chabot what's a higher level of sugar that basically you can study Torah and you can do mitts vote and again obviously doing God's mitzvot you're studying God's Torah but what happens is when you're studying Torah you're doing research and you're starting gossipy this is slowly doing Bing I am selling God's Torah I am doing this Mitzvah again again it's a level so I'm not saying if you hold it in that level do it but the problem is the reason wants not the highest because who's doing it all I I the I though I even comes first I am studying Torah now Torah I write study I I am studying I am doing the matter so again true it's God's Mitzvah and it's beautiful you'll get reward for and everything but the problem is there's the I what's the highest level of what's the highest level the highest level we know is studying Torah high in doing them it's vote but now that you're studying Torah cos you enjoy studying Torah but you're studying Torah with or and love for God that means when you're studying you feel there's no me wow this is what God is saying this without teaching me now that's the highest level of Shula so the highest level of true is when you studying Torah not because you enjoy it and I'm not saying you shouldn't enjoy but you act something for that reason you stunning turquoise it's God's touring you excited and you're happy to study God's Torah and what's interesting is the after it brings down at peak nice piece of Kabbalah and he says like this that how do you study Torah would you say before how do you study Torah with Dina right and Dina so that was the binos actually made up of two words which towards been a made up of ready it's very simple you see it well it's peanuts not to fall out of aids you had known hey so if you give a look in those those words I'm gonna pull out two letters bays are none which spells been a son what are you left with you at K right not the first not the first two bays the first and third letter is been been the son of yet k Wow think about that what is your cane your K is Cosmo and vena the mutant hey Hoffman vena so when a person basically studies totally this colombina you produce a child what child is that what is the info which children of the interlocked produce what is the intellect produce emulsions when you meditate you get excited the more you meditate on God you get excited so the ultimate of being is then you produce a child you produce a motion coming from the UK so in other words the highest level of true ver is when a person sits and studies Torah using his cuff - be not right you get the idea you develop it and you think about it and all of a sudden you go oh my gosh it's exciting or I can use telling Torah then UK when the UK produces the band or the bend is produced from the UK that is the highest level walk of chuhwa now and that's why the author explains that somebody let's say for example phones on a level of atomic those who's probably was born he was like born so to speak studies tour and he doesn't it's felt and everything right so because he was he sort of speak in the in the zone he's in his own so the and it's it's a great zone to me everything is great there's no judgment but the point is there's no really passion and excitement there it's like you know living on a conveyor belt or living on autopilot so when you're living on autopilot yeah it's beautiful it's a nice ride autopilot but you know what happens on autopilot it's boring very good it's boring where's the excitement in autopilot however but what happens when you're not know what a pilot but when the roller sort of speed bumpy and you veered off a little bit and you know what if you know what it tastes like so to speak to me to the sin and so as we go against God you don't happens all of a sudden then you say oh my gosh no I don't want that life I don't want that life I don't want the empty life I don't want the life that my emotions and my all my ideas run my life and today it's up and tomorrow's down and no I don't want about me you know what I want that didn't work I want a real life I want a happy life I want and ain't no now what a happy life is I know what happy life is not a selfish life I know a happy life is a life that I'm doing with God once and when a person puts himself in that zone and the Hebrew word is called a ball chuhwa ouch with me the person does choose I don't want to live the life when I'm doing what I want oh not what God wants that person could reach even much higher levels than Sonic why because he can really really activate his love for God so in other words chapter 8 paradise Netanya in universal truth uh is extremely powerful because chapter 8 pay requests teaches us how we can go from low level of chuva which is a great place to start but really to reach high level children and it's very very simple you want to reach the highest level sugar okay obviously the level of doing mitzvahs with excitability cetera but the highest is studying with compassion that puts you into a whole different zone and when a personal study total compassion that's so that's the highest level of true satanic starting toward not just stunning to okay fine yeah no no you Wow and you study it and you think about it you meditate on it and it affects your emotions where you start living Torah that is the highest level of chula and guess what it might be hard sometimes to start telling how it's a commitment but it can breach you to the greatest place greatest places and if you learn in this trap the time when a person study start with compassion guess what there's no room for anything else and up to the point the behold rock has on every single place every single moment every single thing what you're doing and every time place your knowing God I mean the truth is it happens me the greatest freedom and it's really the greatest joy to be able to live on that type of a level you're totally one with God always you're totally alive and you're living a great and a happy life
