Tanya By Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz Sec4 Chap14 “The flow of energy to Israel is dependent on us”

welcome to tonight's tiny class we are studying Tanya we're in the section called the Garrity coalition last section on Tanya we're holding pay review dollars chapter 14 every chapter in Tanya has its own theme but in the other hand it is the Bible of mysticism so they're very very foundational teachings and this chapter the author shows us cabbalistic Lee in a beautiful Kabbalistic presentation about the flow of energy that comes from God into the Land of Israel and this flow of energy that comes from God is dependent on us pending on our actions that's what creates the powerful flow of energy to the Land of Israel so this chapter is based on the altar of his inspiration to inspire us about the great importance of the Land of Israel and the importance of supporting the Land of Israel just to give you a little historical background the Alta Reba the first Chabad Rebbe he set up an organization called kollel kebab which happens to be the oldest kabbalah institution because it's around till today till today is around started with the first compadre the alter rebbe and the altar set up colca bog which is a kebab kollel for people to sit and study Torah in the land of Israel that time in the Alturas times they didn't live in Israel but he sent spiritual leaders to spiritual leaders went at that time to Land of Israel their names were amended hora dr. as we realize in those days people don't have last things like we have today people called their first name for example this rather is called a Mendel even either you're called by your parents name tremendo the son of so-and-so or you call based on the city you're from like today they called so on Mendel from Crown Heights who's that there's thousands and thousands of them right how would that work and even if you gave the father's name young people are had the same thought you know just so but in those days if you had a city of hora duck how many Mendel's were there so he was known as the rat and now he was a rabbi so he's called a Mendel of horrid duck and then there was another city in Russia called Calais and the rabbi from nap City was Cobra Bay of Verona and the two of them really Mendel of hora dock area Brom of Calais travelled to land of Israel with their students to establish centers of Torah learning as we'll soon see why it's important to learn tour in Israel because obviously Israel is has God's blessing and they went there to establish tour institutions but how do you support tour institutions in Israel in those days today even today behind you supported then so the alter rebbe yeah the altar we would send yes daughter would send money and lots of money to lion in Israel and that's part of the complaints that people had against him and they squealed into the government which is another discussion for itself but the point this point is the important point is the author would send funds to the Land of Israel now initially when the Opera was started the campaign was pray you know first don't see the first because many campaigns well now that we started the campaign to support the Kolo Habad in the Land of Israel everyone's excited why because first of all he's supporting Land of Israel he's supporting people learning Torah but more important was that it was like it was like a new thing it's a new thing there's always excitement and something new it's always exciting something new the problem is when things become old we lose the excitement so we have to always find the renewal of the of the excitement in it so the author listen I've got everyone excited people are supporting line of Israel and people are supporting these these two great rabbis with their students in this kollel in the Land of Israel now what happened was after time people the excitement wore off wasn't the excitement wears off the check stopped coming the cash jewelry whatever they paid however they did the donations in those days it stopped coming so the outer wasn't just out to ask people for funds he wanted to inspire them and show them spirit the significance of supporting these rabbis and their coals in the Land of Israel which is called Kola Chabad so the altar at this chapter teaches us about this powerful energy that takes place in the end of Israel the Altima starts over the family says like this that in the Land of Israel there's a very very powerful light cold Cledus her Eliana code this we know means holy and Elio means above high so this powerful light called clay this alien was the part of the light that was shining in the Land of Israel now where does this light come from if it's a powerful light that has to come from somewhere so we know that this how many worlds are all their worlds are there there are four worlds what does that mean for worlds when God before God created the world before the world existed there was only the infinite light of God the infinite light of God God decided to create a materialistic world so God didn't just go ahead and straight to an infinite Craven to realistic world you need to have some kind of downgrade of the energy so quanta Kabbalah there's a downgrade of energy it goes through the downgrade of four different worlds namely the highest world which means the world that's closest to God is called the world about solute constant word of eight so it's close to God the second world we're already the light gets weaker and there's more concealment it's called the world of bria creation the world after that ready where there's already some more concealment and therefore you have something called the it serie the world of formation and then you have the lowest world means the greatest concealment of God and the more world that we can relate to is called the world of asea so the highest powerful energy of God is not solute less than Briana lessening it's here that's not CL now in each world we know there's the 10 C wrote and obviously we can have a class in each one of these worlds and we can have a class on the tennis four-year-olds but it's not the main point to describe so I'm just gonna we're gonna use it as a frame of reference as the Alpha mentioned it's the 10 0 you have starting with chochmah binah das the three intellectuals he wrote then you have the the six me don't hassle 40 ferrous metal wholly sewed and mal hood those are the ten Sphero so any flow of energy goes through for example from the infinitive the first floor the first the source of all the energy comes from in self the infinite light of God it goes into the world of absolute where it's more God then our reality and but with the flows through everyone on the zero starting with Hockman through mouth would when it finishes the Pratt the process of going through the world about solute then it starts entering in the world of Bria and it starts in hakama the first fewer and it goes through everyone in the sphere through mouth codes then it goes down to the world of you see you're out and then it goes down to the world of ASEA and that's when you thought that's the energy that we deal with after going through all this process it's a pretty pretty intense process of downgrading the spirit Runge because it was too good too strong we couldn't handle it okay so the ultra says that the Land of Israel the light that's literally felt in the Land of Israel is called coitus holy Eliana now if you're paying attention which I'm sure you are what is the highest source of energy where you can come from the world about feels very very good the world about feeling good good in the world about see what we didn't mention anything like a snow in the world what's here which sphere you mentioned the first sphere uh what was the first theory mentioned Kaufmann very good so Queen Azshara Lu Lu I mean the highest world of solute and the first viewer the highest fear of karma so the energy that's felt in the Land of Israel again it's called coitus earlier in a fancy name the high level of holiness which what does that mean practically and it means it's coming from what from the world of Mohammed salutes now that's what the algebra says now not only that but this energy that comes from huff huff move absolute it's not stagnant every single year the energy gets stronger and stronger every single year the energy that comes from khakhra that solute gets stronger and stronger the question is why the answer is very simple because weirdest kauffman that zlil come from it comes from the aint self the infinite light of god's hakama that sealed even though it's a very high level but it's already a level so every since God is infinite so he gives energy but guess what you think when God gives next time he's giving less he's getting more because the we know the famous expression colonies and whoever gives behind you awfully you give it a good eye so let's see last thing he gave X next it's gonna be double X and so on and so forth it's constantly a stronger and better so every single year intensifies now that's what the Alpha puts out as the framework the question is where does he get that far where did you get it from because we know everything has to be traced back to the Torah so the question is how do we know that the energy intent of our intensifies every year so the author brings a verse from the Torah famous verse which the Rebbe quotes a lot and obviously autumn brings it in this chapter of Tonya and he says like this in Deuteronomy chapter 11 verse 12 the Torah says like this in reference to the Land of Israel tell me the a a Hashem a local bar may ratios have shown a beyond across our song I'll translate the version I'll explain it Tommy which means steady what atomic means steady always that means it's always always means always Deniz is inept is that never a time that's not Tommy always a nay Hashem the eyes of God the eyes of God is on the land of Israel think about that based on their society not the Rebbe says that's why you'd have to worry about if you're in a land of Israel you don't even know security you don't need your alarms you only I'm just kidding the point is you need to use human things we have to be responsible but you don't have to worry worry you don't have to and the reason is because the eyes of God are watching so much I was watching what is worried nothing but again that's what the outdoor every sneaks out of Stacey Deline Israel but let's bring back to Tonya it's a side note but the point is that Hamid always the eyes of are on the land of Israel and the Torah so specifically from the beginning of the year to the end of the year so two points out reverses point number one is we know that when the Torah refers to the eyes of God what level is that talking about we said what when we say eyes when we refer to eyes what are we referring to about God so we know it says that the eyes refer to the attribute of chochmah hokhmah so the verse says Hamid a national acaba so even though it physically it means eyes but what eyes I mean it means cockman like we know it says haha , a wise person aina Boresha his eyes are in his head hello who doesn't have the eyes in their head but that means that when you look with your eyes are using hokhmah not just physical looking Karma okay that's point number one doctor who brings out point number two doctor ask a simple question it says God's eyes are in the Land of Israel from the beginning of the year to the end of the year so God's eyes are to the beginning to the end what happens next year from the beginning to the end from the beginning to the end so it is what does that mean practically God's eyes and the land of Israel forever yes so then why is it say from beginning to the end of the year what if it if it's forever the version of said God's eyes on the land of Israel forever it says no from the beginning to the end of the year from the beginning to the end of the year so it's from beginning to the end it's forever but nevertheless the Torah doesn't say that and the question is why so that's the opposite the question Harper proposes and he will address it shortly as we go through the chapter okay yes good good point yes good point okay now so again we doctor was said before said before that we're does the energy come from the land of Israel comes from Chloe - Alyona and the author was said it comes from Krakow not seedless and that's very nice quite Italian or what is he based on everything in Kabbalah and Zola has to be based on something there's no shooting for the hip and pulling out you know from the Hat or from the sleeve yeah you got you got a basement on something so the outer brings a verse from proverbs chapter 3 verse 19 and it says in the verse in Proverbs Hashem referring to God be hokhmah with hokhmah the not remember but hokhmah right we just had become are you're sad or 'it's he created the foundation of Erichs of earth now what is Eretz mean so Eretz there's two levels of there's many levels of errors so for example you have in the spirit starting with hokhmah be ngoz and the emotional ones the mouth would which one is Eretz land mouth what is errors markers errors so what does the verse a hashem bit hokhmah yo cigarrets wit more the first fira he went through all this fee road and that's how he created a foundation of mouth would of that world which is referring to on a simple level the world about salute so the way the energy flows it starts off with hokhmah it goes through all the sea road and it total comes to the last one the Eretz which is the last one on the land which is referring to Mohammed salute from the air from the air it goes through the world of Bria or the Sphero the world of you'd see raledis world and the world of ASEA oldest we wrote until comes down to arity Sorrell and as the author recalls it aerates kayfetz what is air at scape it's mean Eretz means land chaffetz means constant word of rots own the will of Hashem Eric C strolls called errors constant same errors are the same in the world errors is spelled Allah for each topic race charlie is to two letters example that stands for ruts own it the Land of Israel does their work so on a sham think about all the myths votes how many missiles are specifically applying a line of Israel all the laws about the sacrifices and many other laws about the the land laws and shmita and Yeovil etc that apply specifically to of Israel's it's called Eretz Chaffetz that's number one number two is it's also called erratic high in the land that's living all over the world is land but it's dead land the Land of Israel you're alive if you go to Israel oh my gosh you're like you can't sleep who sleeps in the Land of Israel why because it's the land of the living land of the living in other words so what the verse is saying is a shame but Hoffman yes Laura said from Hoffman went in to Eretz mouth closed about salute and from there goes down to this materialistic world in the Land of Israel which is called Eretz of hatred and error - hyeme the author also brings another verse to to substantiate and to prove this point he brings from qohelet from king solomon and it says over the air as follows in Chapter 7 verse 12 hahaha Takaya by law that again hokhmah the highest level the higher gives gives life force of into baila into the violet to the to the materialistic physical world that you see that the energy starts of a cocksman comes down in to this world I was referring to the world of Israel now so now what happens like this so where does the energy start from that's prevalent and strong in the Land of Israel all starts in Kakuma now we're just coming at the energy from it gets it from the or in so for the infant the light of God now so since it comes from the infinite light of God so when God sends down energy it keeps on getting stronger and stronger and stronger not only is it gets stronger the altar says it's actually a hold of new level it's a whole new level like we're living in a finite world so the stronger there's a stronger when it's coming from God it's not that it's strong and stronger true it's strong and stronger Koretz the language that we use but it's a whole different level because God is infinite so the energy of God for example gave last year and now he gives new energy it's like a whole doing the whole exactly it's like new channels whole new whole new opportunities that never existed and as we see throughout history the way new things have been developed that they never existed before don't even dream that they would exist and this constantly new and new innovations and that's when you think you've seen everything that's what there's more why because ultimately we get our source from where from the Ain south and the ain't soft is no there's no there's no limits and therefore there's infinite infinite upon part of infinite upon infinite possibilities that's possible now so what happens list when does this play take place where the squared shifts the optimist says one that takes place is very simple because we know it says matura that Rosh Hashanah is on the month the new year Rosh Hashanah is when it's on history but which they industry the first day of the month of Tishrei think about all the holidays Pesa right when is PASOK on the 15 to the month Schrute is connected to Pesach it's 49 days after that succour than the fifteenth Rosh Hashanah is unique that's on the first what is unique about the first when when the holidays are on the 15th the moon is what full bloom right right a middle of the month what happens on the first you know you don't see no but nothing you see nothing it's called when it comes out it's totally concealed what may be a spec you'll see there so look okay I got it so Rosh Hashanah Rosh Hashanah Rosh Hashanah basically it's totally it's totally there's not there's nothing there before it before there's the birth of a new moon it's not there where is it where is it wouldn't conceal it where is it so the author says that almost Shona right before it comes out it goes back to its original source it goes back to its original source it's gone it's gone it is gone now what happens when it's gone is it's gone it goes back to the anus of light and matter of fact we all know in the writings of Kabbalah that in that moment when it goes back before God decides to give us a new year the world is like living on it here and it can totally be gone and we would never be here again but what happens is we get up in the morning and we do our prayers and we blow the chauffeur all right you blow the chauffeur boom that's it that's when the new energy comes in and when the new energy comes in it comes in stronger and better than before and the and and then Alex it starts the it comes from Delta flight it goes the Kaufman goes all the way down to my foot and then it comes down to this world and the other quotes from King David in Psalms the third song the tenth verse so the Psalms are like this key in Co the cork I'm Bertha Nero which means Kymco referring to the essence of God the infinite part of God when you're the source of our life and when your source of life comes out that we we have light and with your light that's how we see light in the world so it all starts from there now the author of also says by the way even though when does this happen on a big scale once a year once here it happens in a big and a big weight once a year one restaurant that's why everybody comes to shore much stronger because you want to be there right when and all the new innovations are coming out it's like yeah I guess when they introduce a new iPhone right everyone's going crazy or what I don't know the I enjoy to see but a new car comes out everyone's right away they people wait on line that's why we Jews there's still a lot if you start Fort Meyers good exactly yes but what it but for us what is the big hoorah Rosh Hashanah the brand-new light comes out now in a big scale that's once a year but the October says guess what it actually happens on a smaller scale but it happens when every single day not only once every single day when when you pray every single day you get up in the morning it's a new day and you pray to God you bring in new lights didn't exist before and that's what I think about it you'll see him working and you're working things aren't moving but you get up one day early you have the proper meditation and you pray and all of a sudden today is like wow how did this happen and the answer is because new lights new energies that never existed before never existed before it's possible to be created and to be drawn down every single day during the prayer service and that's why it's very very important to pray every single day because this when we pray everyday we will be able to bring down new and great beautiful lights now okay so based on this the outer explains why it says in the verse that we are brought down at the beginning of the chapter Tom made a knee hashem elokenu bah why is it you specifically a near Shyamalan how I'll be at law because a nine as we said is hokhmah and the energy of chakra is always available in line of Israel always available in the Land of Israel and that's why the October says what is this week what was the question offer ask the beginning of the chapter so it says God's eyes are in Israel when from the beginning of the year to the end of the year and the from the beginning to the end to beginning to the end so why aren't the first say forever why don't say forever and I'm the outer explained very simple because what happens once a year at the end of the year before our son happens the world goes dark dark black out spiritual black out there's no energy it's no energy and then what happens right away you blow the chauffeur new energy so the verse specifically says that God's watching online from beginning to end because he knows in the beginning p.m. do you get the energy is flowing from the energy of the beginning of the earth the year is over that's it use it all up and now is it like a new contract so God gives us a contract for the energy just for one notch but much for one year at the end of the year you have brand new energy and huh new lease yourself exactly exactly yes and it's interesting is that if you look in the verse where it says Tom edenia shovel acaba that the eyes of God in the air so there's me ratios from the beginning of the year till the end of the year how do you spell my gracious ask anyone knows how to spell Hebrew or Yuri Torah mem race Olive Shin you'd self six letters but if you give a look in the verse guess what it's missing a letter it says mem reish shin you'd stuff Oh missing a letter which letters are missing no it's missing the olive it's missing the olive why because in the beginning of the year the olive which no is referring to God is gone it's not there now how the world is living if God is not there so in Kabbalah talks about in depth the optimism talked about here it's something which is called a kiss to the hi you saw a very very low faint energy that holds up the whole world it's like hanging on a string but the point you see clearly in the verse that the beginning of the year is raesha s' it's empty it's lacking everything it's lacking the life of God and then what happens is the minute rashon starts the infinite light goes into hokhmah from there it goes into the whole world but still down to Malcolm X he looked and then it goes down into into area too strong into the Land of Israel now comes Olin afterburner reserves but remember one thing we want God to give us new energy so what it says God every year gives us new energy so why does he have to renew the contract if he if he's giving it to automatic it's an automatic renewal so that let me just be forever why does he need this Rosh Hashanah thing all about and the answer is no look it's not automatically no the renewal of the gift of life and the great gift of life and a whole new level of gift of life is dependent the opéra says on our avodah on our work work we know is a void of Fela a prayer of tourists I mean it's not work means we do more than what we we think we're capable of doing anytime you pray with more qivana that you normally would anything you study more more toy than you normally would or sure that or anything you you do more mitzvot that's called a voda so when we do a voter and we scoot in which means we have a source we do tremendous things and gives us sort of speak points and when we do chuhwa and that's why the whole month of L ol we already start in the month before Rosh Hashanah we start doing chuva people every single they get up early induce the cold some communities some communities blow the shofar every day some say Psalm 27:1 devotional or e is something give more charity whatever people do some people are more careful with posses role and many many different things people take on when people do Trouville so in the whole month of 'evil and specifically obviously in the days leading up to to Rosh Hashanah that causes the great revelation to come down with Shana so another throughout ever says that this great revelation that exists and it comes about on Shana has a common bound it comes about based on our Buddha based on our work so you see how important is to do our Buddha so based on this algebra says where's the we r is the light of God gonna shine the greatest in the Land of Israel and we know the Land of Israel gets the greatest light and from there the light goes all over the world and matter of fact we know the way the temple was built it says the temples was built with windows that were small on the inside and began the outside most times you build windows that are the opposite small on the outside begin this because you want the light to come in on the country the lights and the temple goes after the whole world the light from Israel goes that's why the whole world's going crazy at Israel that's where everybody wants to have the embassy and in Jerusalem why because that's where the energy is whether it's where the light is now so since the light from this so we have to make sure that Israel gets renewed energy every single year and not only renewed on the same level whole different levels and therefore the optimum sense since we since we counted it all over the world comes from the land of Israel so we want to make sure it gets renewed how do we do that so we have to do our part our avodah our pray or our torment and this would this letter the outcome inspires people hello it's not an old thing to give charity to coma Habad we need to constantly do it because it's payment on this at the light the powerful light will come down to land of Israel from there will come to all over the world so you see this chapter sheds light a on the whole structure of the way the flow of energy comes from God to the Land of Israel from the air to the whole world and more importantly it's important to know that we have within our power to our avodah through our Trueba through our merits through our charity to cause the light to come down on the greatest powerful levels and through this doubter inspired everyone to get reunited again and to reiax we get start getting excited again about supporting Israel cuz it's not just about writing a check and giving a donation it's really about keeping the flow of energy coming and not only to be coming but you'll come stronger and stronger
