welcome to this week's class on qasidis
we're going to be learning a special
hasidic discourse from the rebbe
the rebbe said that this hasidic
discourse in shabbos parshas varun
and that year it was it was tishma was
in shabbat
so the fasting was on a different day
but chavez was actually tisha above
so it was called a nitra in the year
tough shin
dalit which is exactly 56 years ago
the rebbe certified and edited this this
course
on hamisha the 15th day of the month of
aav
in the year tough which is
exactly 29 years ago which is actually
the
the last edited hasidic discourse of the
rebbe which he said in the time
in that period of tishbo and two above
so the specific discourse is based on a
verse from the prophet job
in the chapter 28 verse 3 so what does
it say in the prophet it says like this
kate's some lacroix that means
that darkness which we all don't really
love we want light
so for la choice the prophet says that
there's an end for all darkness
that means is an expiration date
darkness doesn't last forever
what does that mean practically and the
metro says
that hashem made in the world
a condition of exactly how long there's
going to be darkness
at some point darkness is over the rebel
also brings in that
sadek who quotes from the who brings in
the zohar
based on the verse that says
that everything has its time and place
so the zoa
says that there's a specific set time
when this goddess is going to be over so
we see clearly from the madrish we see
clearly from the zohar
that kate samuel means that darkness
goddess exile challenges all have an
expiration date and god willing it will
be all over for all of us
so do you ever ask a question we know
that everything has an expiration date
we're living in a finite world
everything has an expiration date so
what's the big kiddish what's the novel
idea that you're saying
for darkness as an expiration date
everything has an expiration date
that's question number one question
number two is rubber asks
what does it say here kate salman that
there's an end for darkness so what does
that mean that darkness really
doesn't have an end hashem came along
and made an end for darkness
is that really correct we we said
everything has
has an end so what does it mean we're
saying that kate samuel
what's this idea that hashem made
specifically
a dark time so derby explains
that based on where king solomon speaks
at the 14 different things there's a
time
that are good things and bad things and
the time for a good thing time for a bad
thing time for
a happy thing time for a sad thing so
how does that work
that means like this in this finite
world you can't have
two feelings and experiences in the same
moment so either you're dealing with
light
or you're dealing with darkness either
dealing with good things or you're
dealing unfortunately bad things
so everything has a time and place so
what does that mean let's say for
example you're going through a tough
time and all of a sudden wow you hear
some good news
so right now you become happy now why
are you happy you were dealing with
something negative because right now
you're being happy for the good news and
that pushes away the darkness
the problem is that when the good news
wears off then
then the bandage comes back in so you
didn't really get rid of the darkness
but is it a level it's called
distraction
it's called shifting you shift from
focusing on the negative you focus on
the positive
so that's one level of getting rid of
bad things simple trick in life you want
to get rid of negative you want to get a
bad stuff be busy with positive things
it works and it's correct
but that doesn't take away the darkness
what here
what the what the what what the verse
over here is referring to the rubber
says
when we talking about getting rid of
kate some lucifer is
that there'll be a time when there's not
going to be darkness at all
and there's not going to be even room
for darkness
like when she comes we're going to
finish with this gullah so when we
finish this galas
there's not going to be room for exile
so that's the idea
of kate samla not that there's going to
be light and if it won't be darkness
there's not even going to be darkness to
begin with darkness will
totally be eradicated from this world
now so obviously we all would love
to have which level not the level where
light just pushes out the darkness
we want the level where darkness doesn't
even exist there's no room for its
existence
so there ever explains how can we how
can we make that happen
so ever since it has to do with the
level of light that's shining
based on the level of light that's
either it's just gonna push it away but
there's room for it to come back
or it's not going to be that it's not
going to be possible to come back and
there we explain it's very simple
in order to replace darkness okay fine
you have a finite light
you're busy with finite good things
happy things
so guess what you're not busy with
negative stuff but in order to eradicate
darkness
that darkness shouldn't have room to
even exist a finite light's not going to
work
what you need is an infinite light when
you have an
infinite light then you can eradicate
darkness
and rebbe actually quotes the madras and
the madras actually makes a big
distinction
between all the exiles that we went
through
and the redemptions that we had that
unfortunately are not complete because
the fact is we're still in exile
versus the ultimate redemption so the
metro says
all the exiles that we were in and we
were redeemed
it's like the light of a candle when you
light a candle it's real light
but guess what a candle can be blown out
however when mashiach comes the ultimate
redemption
it's going to be the infinite light and
when you have the infinite light guess
what
it doesn't go out and that's when you'll
be able to totally
eradicate all darkness so again to be
clear what you're ever saying is
finite light replaces darkness but
darkness can still come back
infinite light eradicates darkness
up to the point of darkness cannot even
come back to begin with
no so what do we want we want the
infinite light because we have the
infinite light guess what there's not
even room for darkness
so the rabbit says what creates
infinite light and whoever says here is
the key
to your happiness but real happiness
with darkness will never exist in your
life
whoever says that torah when a person
learns torah
and when a person studies torah when a
person is connected to hashem
through torah torah creates
the revelation and this powerful light
so when a person is connected hashem
through terror guess what the light is
so strong there's no even room for
darkness
and that's what we all know it says
natalma the jeremy doesn't quote it here
that if you're
having a challenge with the sahara
what's the best thing go into going to
the shul
sit down and start learning because when
the light comes out all the darkness
goes away in other words practically
speaking that's in terms of our personal
challenges
but we want to get rid of this exile we
want to get rid of the gullah swin
we want to get rid of the darkness so if
you want to nullify the exile that's
through light
now we're going to explore what is this
whole power of light
that light has the power to get rid of
exile
has get rid of all the all the all the
darkness all the challenges
so we know how to do it obviously we
have to learn torah toy is light
and that gets get rid of the darkness
but how does that work practically so
derby explains very very simple
because there's something very very
powerful about
light oil light
because light is basically associated
with water humility
and because light is associated with
humility
that brings in the greatest light the
light of hashem
that get get that gets rid of the
darkness
and hand ruby explains what's the whole
idea that we say
that light is humility so debbie
explains there's actually three levels
three levels in humility now i'm going
to take time to explain each one because
here there he goes in through this to
the whole hasidic discourse
is built among these three levels and
every explains it beautifully on so many
levels on the spiritual kabbalistic
level
are the way it works in the world of the
sea road the way it works in our
personal life
um and with with tremendous depth and
powerful insight and based on this derby
explains
the whole idea of what's going to happen
when the shia comes how we can get rid
of all the darkness and the
darkness will never come back again so
let's talk about the first level
so again here's the idea light
is what humility
in humility there's three levels the
first rebel
derby says is that when you think about
light
so let's all take for a moment to think
about you have the sun
the sun is not light the sun in kabbalah
is called the
the source of light so the sun
is the mother which is a source of light
the ray
that comes down from the sun is the
light
so mario is the sun the source of the
light the earlier is the light
you see shining in light in here we do
have lights on but you have lights in
the windows as well
that is the er which comes from the era
summers
now the light
that that's in the world all over the
world
the physical light that exists the
spiritual light
this light that exists do you see it
walking around
in an arrogant way or it's totally
humble 100
100 humble it does its job
in the morning the sun comes up it gives
off light to the whole world
you're nice to the sun you're not nice
to the sun it does its job
it acts as a real humble
entity that is doing its job faithfully
consistently just the way hashem wants
to to to to give wolf light to the world
now
does it look for honor does it look for
payment does it look recognize nothing
why because light light
on its own is humble
why and three levels level number one is
i'll say it in hebrew i'll translate it
and ruby says
because light is only
a small
reflection of the source of its light
so in other words like this if you have
the motor which is the source of light
that from the source light which is much
more powerful that's the fact that it
gives off light
the sun is much more power it handles it
also gives off light
but it's much more powerful than that so
could you imagine
the light the ray of light which is only
array it's nothing to it
comes along saying hey i'm the one
that's bringing you the light
hello you're not giving me the light the
sun is producing the light
you're the ray you're just a ray that's
all you are so because the oil
is only me in it's only
giving off light from the source of
light it's not his light
the light is not his light he is
representing what the more
what the source of light has to give him
to give off
so therefore because the light knows
that he is just a ray of the source of
light
so the light itself is humble
he knows it's not him he knows he's just
he's just a
he knows he's just an emissary it's it's
not his power
in hebrew it's called he knows he is
just
a little ray doing its job and different
naturally it's
naturally it's humble we'll soon get to
how it applies to us in our lives but
let's first get the idea on a spiritual
level
that's one level of that's one level of
humility against the first level of
humility is
means that the light is only doing its
job as a reflection of the sun and he
knows the light knows
that the sun is where the real power is
what is he
who is he and he sees the sun does it
faithfully so he does it faithfully
that is first level second level
is more sophisticated level on a
spiritual level is
the reason why the light
is so humble because he feels
its source he feels the source of the
mirror
of the source of light within him so
because he feels the source of the light
why would he even like think for a
minute that he's a somebody
he literally feels the source of the
light in the first case
he doesn't feel the source of light he's
giving off light but he knows that his
light compared to the source of light
wow it's nothing here he feels the
source of the light
so when you feel the source of the light
when you feel the source of your energy
how could you be arrogant he literally
feels the source where he comes from
that's the second level the third level
of humility is
even a deeper humility is because the
light
comes from a source which is the motor
so where does he really where does the
light feel at home down here giving off
light
or he really wants to see where the
party is he wants to be where the action
is
he wants to be in the source of light
the light doesn't want to be here while
it's
tree thrills down here cheap seats he
wants to be in the source of light
so the light his whole life even though
he's doing his job
faithfully but his mind and his heart
of the light is totally connected to its
source
and in he the words of kabbalah is he
has a ratsui he has a yearning
to what one thing he wants to be
back home with his parents with the
source of light
so therefore you walk over to him thank
you for the light he looks at you thank
you for like i didn't want to be here i
don't belong here
i want to be with the store i'm here i'm
doing my job i can't wait to go back
so this is three levels of humility in
the first let's repeat again because
this will help us throughout the whole
academic discourse and the first level
of humility is
the light is giving light and he knows
that he has an important job and people
thank him
but he knows compared to what's in the
source
not really much so therefore he's not
really arrogant about it he's humble
he knows you thank you thank you but he
knows it's in the source
the second level already is he feels its
source
when you feel your source you're
thanking me like the wrong person you're
thinking
he may already take a thank you doesn't
belong to him he fear he knows
and he acknowledges that his power comes
from on high
the third level is already he doesn't
even want to be here
you thank him i don't belong here i want
to go up to heaven i want to go to my
source
those are the three levels
so they're going to ask first of all
what is the difference between level one
and level two
what's the difference seemingly the same
thing
they both recognize where they come from
that's question of wonderbest which
we'll deal with obviously later
the second question asks what are we
saying
we're saying is this that we went from
one level to the higher level to the
higher level
what's the second level the second level
is a higher level why because he
he feels it soars and therefore he feels
like he's a nobody
seemingly who has a greater humility
when you feel your source what's the big
deal to be humbled
on the first level he doesn't feel a
source he's hanging out he says
thank you for the thing but he's a
comparison to thank you because he knows
that it's
nothing compared to that so when when
the first level has humility
that's seemingly a higher and deeper um
higher deeper humility now
so based on the story explaining this
what's the difference because the truth
is like this
in the first level ur main hamari which
means he recognizes
that he's only a ray of the sun
so what does he know about the sun he
doesn't really know much about the sun
he knows the matsias mathias means the
the existence of the sun
that he's a ray of the sun but he
doesn't really know the mahouse the
essence of the sun
however when it comes to the second
level when he feels
its source now he's obviously more in
tune to where he comes from
so because he's more in tune to where he
comes from
so therefore the humility is much
stronger so in other words on one hand
you can say the first level is a
possibly a higher level of humility
because
he just told he because he knows he
knows who he is
but the fact is because he doesn't know
how the essence of where he comes from
therefore the humility obviously is not
so strong and
not that great what is but so we
we all agree the highest level humility
is
when you want to be totally back home
that's the highest level humility
because you want to be one with hashem
you want to be one with the source of
light
in other words he doesn't even why is
that such a high level humility
because think about it on the third
level of humility if you go back to your
source you're not going to be here
you're not going to exist and guess what
on the third level you're willing to
give up your whole existence the light
is willing to give its existence
why because it wants to be with its
source wants to be back home with the
source of light
and as the r rabbit coach in the basham
to the quotes it says
that the angels stand even on a higher
level than us why
because the angels don't want to exist
they just want to be connected
with the infinite part of hashem and
that's the highest level of humility
again just to recap so because it's a
deep discourse
we're dealing with what the idea that
through light and the highest level of
light
there's no room for darkness what we say
how do you get light
you get light by learning torah by
terror brings in the light
what is idea of light humility because
if you learn
torah and you're lacking the humility
you're not really
you're not bringing in the real light in
when you're learning torah and you learn
with humility
then you can obviously connect to the
infinite light and then
all challenges all darkness go away so
now
we just learned that we're explaining
this three different levels of humility
one
is where you are who you are but you
recognize where you come from
the second level is when you actually
feel within everything about you you
feel your source
and that's obviously a deeper level of
humility because you know what your
source is
and the third level is you you don't
even want to be here you want to be
connected
you see the light is so powerful that
you just want to be with the oneness
which totally allows you to lose
yourself the self part of self
and that allows for the greatest level
of humility
now where
do these three different levels of
humility come from so drug explains
that the three different levels of
humility are connected to three
different levels of light
depending on the strength of the light
that's how strong
the humility is going to be going to be
and they're explaining like this
when hashem created the world so there
was the infinite light
in order to create the infinite light it
should have a physical world
there had to be a symptom they have to
be a concealment
a constraint in the infinite light
after the symptom what happened was like
this you
have we're going to start from the
bottom and work our way up you have a
light of hashem that goes into the
into the vessel another was like this
in order to have light spiritual light
in this physical world
there had to be such contractions such
symptoms in the light
that the light comes into the vessel so
that's one level of light
a light that comes into a vessel that
means a light that we can appreciate
we can connect we can we can uh have a
uh benefit from in a real meaningful way
now
if it's an infinite light how could we
we're finite
so obviously we're dealing with a lower
level of light
that allows itself to be diminished up
to the point where it's able to come
into a vessel
that's one level of light then
there's another level of light
which is called a light which is higher
than coming into okay
it knows it has a connection to a vessel
but can come it can't be internalized
and then you have a lot level of light
which is even
higher than being possible to have a
connection with the vessel
so in other words in the first level
where it rec it's only realizes only a
part
of it of of the source that's from comes
from the light
which comes into the vessel already the
second level where it feels at source
that's from the light which is higher
than coming into into into the vessel
but it has some kind of connection to it
and then when you totally want to leave
who you are that is with the light that
comes from higher than coming
into having any connection with the
vessel so that's one point where it
brings the source of these three levels
is the source of the light that it comes
from
the algebra explains how it's connected
to the sea world and that's something
which we can obviously relate to a
little uh
understand a little better because we
have to see more of a comprehension in
the idea of the world of the three roads
so derby explains that these three
levels are the levels of
bina
what's the connection between being a
hachman caster to his fathers
so what's the the the first level is
what
which means it it exists in this world
but it recognizes that compared to this
to the source
it's it's like it's it's just array
which level of light did that is that
come from we said
the level of light which comes into the
vessel
what is bina bina is where it takes
kahma deep ideas which is hard to really
grasp
and it brings it into the vessel so bina
is connected to
islamists for caleb and to the first
level a bittle
of umur as the arabic says that bena is
a connection between hawaiian elokim
with the infinite part and the finer
part of god
where it connects the two okay then you
have
the part the the next level up which is
the
light it which cannot really come into
our vessel
but it has a connection so we all know
that's connected
because what's you have flashes of an
idea not every idea you can grasp
not every idea you can really get around
and it takes a while to develop the
ideas of
so much connected to the idea of light
which is hard and coming to a vessel
and is the idea where you recognize
where you come from
and then you have the higher level
which is the light which is higher than
coming into a vessel
that's kessar because we know kester is
the crown above it and that's connected
to the part where you totally want to
disconnect you want to go back to your
source now
so the higher level of humility is
why because you
recognize your source you recognize
without hashem you have no flashes of
any diabetes you can think you're coming
up with this idea yourself
and obviously cancer is the highest
level because in kasser
we call it in the words of kabbalah it's
called it's the humility of ephesus
it's nothing the person is literally
willing and ready to give himself
up that's the highest level
now the fact is like this
what is the purpose of light
the purpose of light is to give off
light
the purpose of light is to reveal now
let's take the first level which we call
the lowest level of bitter
the light has to come into a vessel so
the light is more spiritual
and the vessel by definition is physical
in hebrew or in kabbalah it's called a
yes
now for a light to be connected to a
vessel
is the hardest thing because light is
about the light
revelation
humility vessel is about yes
the lowest level the light that comes in
the vessel
which we said is bina which is the which
is that which is the lowest level
humility
why does it do it and the answer isn't
here this is the power of the lowest
level the power of the lowest level is
because it knows that it's all purpose
of existence
why does light exist so that it should
reveal
so even if it has to get involved with
achilles
even it has to get involved with a
vessel even it has to deal with a yes
it's willing and ready to do it because
it wants to fulfill
its mission of revelation so if you
think about it
yes there's it's the lowest level of
humility
there's higher level and higher level
but which one is willing to forego
the luxury of that humility so that it
can fulfill its mission even deal with a
yes and even deal with a vessel
in the second level where it really
feels its source what do we say it's
connected to a vessel like
it's connected but not connected why
because it doesn't want to deal
it doesn't want to deal with the
physical world
it's humility you'll deal with it but
once it's yes it's a physical reality
doesn't want to touch it
obviously on the highest level when
you're cleaving to your source
then you don't even want any vessel
you're even willing to forego
and let go of your vessel totally
so those are the three levels again of
humility three levels
of different light that comes into the
world
and also the three levels of
kasir khachma ambina now
we all know that this is all about
showing you how to serve hashem
we learn all these kabbalistic stuff and
everyone likes it
the light above the world in the world
connected to the world
um humility on this level that level
it's all nice and great stuff
but kasitha's his goal is to take take
these powerful kabbalistic teachings
and show you how it applies in your
service of hashem
and how you relate to hashem how you
become
more connected to hashem in a way that
you can serve us on better
and create a more of a revelation of
godliness within our own lives
and in the world that we live in so
derby explains like this
that these three levels also apply in
our service of hashem
and now we're going to learn three
powerful levels of the way we serve
hashem based on this
model of the three levels of humility
the three levels of light of
caster etc okay
so the goal again is to be connected to
the light
because when we get we're connecting to
the light the light is on
when the light is on guess what there's
no darkness
and when there's no darkness and
darkness resembles the
you know the the black hole which it's
it's it's it's cold it's depressed
it's uh lonely etc with light the light
is on you're happy
you're joyful you have all the greatest
blessings things are working out your
way
so you want the light but in order to
create that light
you need to have humility it goes
together arrogance
brings in darkness humility brings in
the light
so the rebbe explains this based on
three levels of humility the way it
applies in our life what are the three
levels of humility
the first one i'll say in hebrew i'll
translate it the humility
of hasaga which is referring to
intellect
which is founded on our faith
what does that mean
faith is intellect
intellect is a creation intellect is
finite
emunah is faith
emunah is off the charts a moon is we
start connecting to god in a real
infinite deep way
now in order to bring in
and live a life with our gifts that god
gave us intellect and emotions on a
higher level
so you want to have humility so
that faith should penetrate your
intellect
so the first level of humility is that
your intellect
should grasp faith now it's a hard thing
to do think about this
because faith is above intellect
intellect is one plus one is two
faith is whatever hashem wants it could
be whatever number equals whatever
number
but the goal of humility is that the
intellect should realize and
influx and appreciate incredibly
recognize
faith in hashem that's one level of
humility
the second level is simple
not where in faith goes into your
intellect
you're just living a life of faith it
totally
nothing to do with your intellect faith
in hashem you live of life whatever
hashem wants
no no no thinking no meditating it's
just whatever hashem wants
that's the level of humility a very high
level humility
and then there's a level of immunity
which is called masiras nephesh
you're just totally willing to give your
life up for hashem
and you won't do whatever hashem wants
even if it means giving up total
total giving up self there's no issue
whatsoever
it's called the humility of mysterious
nephesh those are three levels
again big words now we're going to
explain them
so in order to understand this obviously
as you can tell this is deep stuff so
explains with an introduction um of
understanding
we uh in kabbalah and kharsidhas we use
a term called
makif and pnimi what is the difference
between macro and panini so let's start
with panini
first panini means i understand it
i comprehend it it i feel it
i get it panini means you're able to
internalize it
you learn you meditate you get it using
your gifts that god gave you that you
can internalize things you understand
things
so psycho intellect is a kayak that's a
power that you can take things
but premiums in an internal way then
these things are traumatic we don't
necessarily with our
physical limited intellect or emotions
we just can't get it
we can't get it but we see the light
we see the light we know it's right so
what is that called
how come i can get it because not
everything you could get not everything
we have the
and it's not a negative it's a positive
thing not everything
we could internalize it's too powerful
to internalize
another like this for example let's say
you have an eight ounce cup
and you fill up eight ounces of liquid
in there perfect eight ounces matches
eight ounces
but one obviously you're very very
thirsty and you have a hundred ounces
you wanna drink but you only have an
eight ounce cup
so the fact that you have a 100 ounce
bottle is that a is that a problem with
an eight ounce cup no
it means you have the hundred ounces
you're gonna have to take one cup at a
time eventually
you'll take it in market means it's a
very powerful energy
we can't internalize it with time
maybe yeah maybe not but we have the
resource of that it's out there for us
now so what happens like this panini
means we can internalize it
market means we can't internalize it now
what happens when you take in somehow
you take in something which is market
which you really is not meant to
internalize and you bring it within you
you say oh
i get it and it's people have you can
express that about certain things i get
it
i know it's the right thing i i
appreciate it right even though you
can't i say explain it i can't explain
it to you
i know it i see it i feel it right so
what does that mean
that means like this it's very simple
yes
you got it but it still remains market
when market comes into premier
it still remains a market that means you
can never really fully comprehend it you
can never
really really fully grasp it so again
panimi is something which we get we can
comprehend we can understand
market is something which we can't get
we can't understand
however we can accept it
but it still remains a market so over
here the rubber gives and again it's a
deep concept he gives two examples
but an example helps you understand
things the first example he gives
so we know in the c road that we have
the tencyroat
depends how you start counting whether
it's which is the intellect and the
emotions
fairness and if or sometimes we count
kessler now cancer generally speaking
is a sphere which is mock if it's not
necessarily preemie
our goal is to try to draw in some of
that market into us in a premium way
but even as we draw it in again it still
remains market but we at least have
some higher energies and higher sources
are drawn within us
so the first muscled rubber gives is
with the kayak harotzain
with the power and the sphere of wrought
sing
now what does rota mean rota means
that i want something i want it
i say explain to me why i can't explain
it's not i want it i have a strong
desire for it
now yeah it's of sera but could you
explain it no
because if i can explain it then it's
not red sign then it's intellect
or if you feel it then it's not red sign
so when you
really want something when you have
something a mashika strong
draw for something you ever rots in for
something you want it
so let's say for example your intellect
tells you do something do one way
and your feelings tell you something
else but your ruxin really wants
something
everyone knows you don't get in the way
of will
when you have for example two people
that really want something
whoa that's a watch action ready to
happen
is very very powerful very powerful the
willpower
the will to live on the will to do
something is extremely powerful
most people you you're surprised how can
they do that and the answer is
because kayak ratzing kicked in when
kaye karaten kicks in
it totally takes over and it brings you
into a whole different level now you got
you have to hope that your rotten is for
good things because rod sanders
is a kayak it's a power god forbid if
you want something which is no good
you're going to go for that also
so you have to make sure your rods if
you're using rods and use it only for
good things
okay now so the represents like this
let's use that as
a muscle example to understand and
understand when it when a kayak
makif comes into preemie it still
remains market
means everything like this let's say you
want something
but the intellect doesn't want to do it
you don't feel it's the right thing to
do
and let's hope it's a good thing in this
case
and it forces you to do it we're doing
it and you go in you do it
and the intellect has a hundred reasons
why not to do it
and the heart feels like ah it's the
wrong thing but you're following you're
going with the flow you're gonna be a
team player
so after you did it and even if it felt
good
and you would saw was the right thing
but you never really got it you never
really appreciate it and sometimes it's
not possible to get it
why could it's coming from rutzine so
here there we go same example
rodzoin remains rotsane you never be
able to get it in your intellect
but you just follow it along so
rothstein still remains
higher than intellect that's one example
there begins
what's the second example there it gives
faith
let's say for example you have faith
this is the right thing to do
and you you see it your soul in high
sees it
sends a message message to your soul in
your body and you see it
and you go for it but the intellect
doesn't get it and it's possible we'll
never get it
but you go ahead and you do it so
when the faith forces you to do it
the faith still remains higher than
intellect two examples of again the way
you have a kayak makif
first example rod sign second example
faith that even after you did it
and it actually you saw is the right
thing to do you still it still remains
outside of you and it still remains
above you now
those are two examples derby gives but
there is a major difference between the
way wrought sign operates
on you and the way faith operates on you
when we're not saying operates on you
it's like a
it comes in this is what we're doing
so is the intellect bought into it does
the intellect
even really want to do it no it just
like puts his head down okay
we'll go with the flow now
so therefore when in the example of
rotsane
supercharging an activity it's not a
big wonder that that
the intellect is not connected because
the watson came in and supercharged it
however when faith comes in faith works
differently
faith works with your intellect and your
influx should appreciate
the idea of faith you know even though
it means
beyond reach it's but it still
works with faith i know this rod says it
doesn't work with you
this is what we're doing we have to do
it and you go do it you're not bought
you're not
you're not sold but you do it faith that
works differently
faith shows you tamaru katovasham it
shows you to appreciate
the idea of having faith in hashem so
therefore when
intellect goes along with the flow it's
not just going along with the flow it
really gets it
so what happens like this when
taking that's one difference what's
another difference when rods
rod saying really has no relationship
with the intellect and the emotions
watson's living in its own world it just
wants to do what it wants to and it
doesn't when rotten has to fight with
intellect
it's actually a downgrade because it has
no relationship with intellect
it's a downgrade we'll have to deal with
the intellect let's go ahead and do it
on the other hand when faith
deals with intellect
it's not a downgrade it actually it
likes
having a relationship with intellect it
wants and its goals that intellect
should appreciate
faith so when the intellect finally
does understand and appreciate
the reason for faith it's thrilled it
gets it
so that is so far an introduction to the
idea
of a kayak
have two ways you have the way watson
works where it
remains outside and it's totally a
downgrade or you can have the way faith
works
the way faith works is a kayak market it
works with faith with intellect
up until the point that the intellect
appreciates something higher
and faith is connected to it and it's
actually an upgrade technically for both
of them
now so thereby explaining to this
how does it work and why does that work
this is like this because
what is the whole idea of faith faith
equals one thing humility
you have a muna it doesn't come from
arrogance
and if you're arrogant you can't really
have faith faith and humility go
together when a person has a muno
because you're humble when you're humble
you have faith
intellect on the other hand what's
intellect
i think intellect is really arrogance
so now you have like this
now you have faith humility
that has to deal with what intellect and
arrogance
but here's the beauty when
faith works with understanding
and it allows the understanding to
appreciate faith
it actually draws down into intellect
again which is the place of arrogance
it draws down humility and that is
really the avoider of faith
to bring down into the world of
intellect
a beautiful idea of humility in it
now what happens is like this when faith
works
works with intellect faith remains
strong
in its faith for hashem intellect wasn't
obliterated
like when rutsen kicks in intellect
remains whole
he understands he gets it he appreciates
it it still remains above him faith will
always be above it but it gets it it
appreciates something above him
and what happens is not only is his
faith whole
and not only is intellect whole but
humility is also whole
and that's the tremendous power of that
relationship
when the market of a muna
gets integrated with intellect
faith is whole intellect is whole
and humility is whole now
so what's the difference the way it
works is with humility and faith
so again faith the faith humility
when the inter when the faith goes
down into the intellect
intellect is still intellect we said it
remains whole
it means intellect remains as what as a
mathias
it doesn't give up its intellect it
still remains a full full-blown
intellect so when the faith comes down
into intellect
then so it still remains it still
remains complete
so you have so so so because it remains
complete
what level of faith comes in it comes
down to lower level of faith
because if the higher level of faith
comes in it
wouldn't be it would not be able to
connect to it so in
in in the first level when faith
comes into the intellect
what happens there is intellect remains
intellect it remains see us
faith remains faith and the two of them
bridge a beautiful humility experience
that's that's one avoid that we have
again the first avoider is that the
intellect remains intellect
humility the faith remains faith and the
two of them blend together and create
humility
which the intellect is really willing
and ready to accept and receive
now on the other hand we know there's a
higher level of faith
what's the higher level of faith where
faith does
not and cannot connect with intellect
because
the gap is too far i to see it i have
faith in hashem
and versus intellect wants to understand
everything
like for example these two
examples would work well with the two
examples as we said before in the
beginning of the discourse
in the different levels of the of of
light it was
in the first level of me says it's a
something
but it recognized where it comes from
that's like when intellect comes into
faith
or faith comes into intellect in the
second level we're reckoning
where it it feels it's it it's soars
that's like where the faith will not
come into intellect
now
so that's obviously a greater level of
humility so
those are so far we learned first two
levels
of and avoid this hashem how it works
the light again the first level is to
recap the first two the first two levels
out of three the first level is what
where basically the faith which is a
kayak
if comes into the circle faith is reigns
whole the intellect remains whole but
appreciates
faith and they both have a level
humility but not
complete humility because intellect is
still amazing
the second level is where 100 faith
it cannot connect to intellect and
obviously it has a much greater level of
humility because i understand what
hashem wants
see in the first level i'm working my
intellect which is great you're
transforming the intellect it should
appreciate faith
however it's not full level humility
because if it was full you wouldn't be
able to connect to it
in the second level however it's really
much more humility and that's why you
can't connect with the intellect
but whoever says
even in the second level where a person
has faith
and the faith is so high and it's high
in intellect
and it's complete humility and it can't
connect it's still not completely melody
why is that because what do we say what
is the reason
why on the second level
the light is connected to hashem the
higher level of humility
why because he feels godliness
so in other words he let's he
on the line it's like the capital i on
the line since you feel godliness
you're a mathias so if you're a mates
you can't have full humility
true it's a higher level of humility
because you can't
obviously connect to the intellect but
the problem is that
you feel godliness so if it's you
feeling
obviously it's not the fullest level of
humility however
um when it comes to the uh the highest
level humility where a person is totally
willing to go on a serious leftish
a person is willing to give himself up
for hashem that
is true humility so there makes over
here clear distinction
clear distinction between between the
second and the third level
in other words the first let's start
again the first level is
faith connects with intellect
they create a beautiful harmonious union
and they both have humility
it's obviously not complete humility
because intellect still remains
intellect
in the second level faith means
disconnected because it cannot connect
with with the
with the the macias of intellect however
it still has its own existence on the
third and the highest level
is where you just want to connect with
hashem totally humbled
hashem you're ready to go on what i'm a
serious nephesh
so now in this third level of ready to
go on my seriousness durability explains
there's actually
two levels of becoming one
what does that mean what does
mysteriousness mean you're willing to
give yourself up
and you want to become one with hashem
why do you want to come one of the
chances everybody's two level two
reasons
one reason is i want to become one with
hashem
period
the second reason is
not i want to become one with hashem i
automatically am one with hashem
in other words like this i can want to
become one with hashem so even though i
want to become woman but there's a one
thing in me that wants to come on with
hashem so it's really not the ultimate
level
what's the ultimate level i want to
become a hashem i'm automatically one
with hashem it's not like i want to
become
what else is there besides hashem now
what happens is when that
highest level of oneness takes place
where i'm one with hashem
then there's no rot saying there's no
this there's no desire there's no me and
that's really the highest level
of of of becoming one with hashem so the
highest level of humility is already
within
within the cup wanting to come on hashem
is actually becoming one with hashem
because that's the only thing that there
is
now
why does the light want to become one
with hashem
because that's its source and since the
light is connected to the source
so therefore because it wants to come
along with hashem the light is connected
to the source so because it's connected
because it wants to become once
one with the source so it's a natural
thing now
the fact that the light wants to become
one with hashem
because that's its source so there's
really no difference if it's the higher
level the middle level the lower level
on on a basic level since everything is
connected to hashem
so everything wants to be connected to
its source
what's the difference the difference is
in the level of humility
as we discussed before the three
different levels so in humility
there's a difference but the light
itself is really we're all connected to
the source of light
now the fact that we want to be one with
the source
so it could be two reasons or ever says
one reason
why we want to be connected to the
source is because we want the source
not because we don't want we want to be
connected to source
in other words almost like if you think
like a level of ethic has its time to
see life asadec only sees god and
godliness holy things
anything negative anything critical
or anything pessimistic and sad doesn't
see it
it's not on the radar so the only thing
that azadek sees it sees the light
and because it sees the light it wants
to connect to the light that's one level
of connecting to the light
again we're not talking about humility
we're talking about connecting to the
light
so one reason you want to connect
because you just want the light the
second reason why you want to connect to
the light is
because you don't want to be
disconnected from this source why would
i want to be disconnected if
my my source is the more if my source is
hashem
i don't want to be disconnected now
this level applies to what it doesn't
apply to
or to only exotic every single person
whether the light is connected but not a
100 connected vessel even the light that
comes into the dust the lowest level of
light
every level of light doesn't want to be
disconnected
to want to be always connected okay fine
you need to be a high level
but not to want to be disconnected
everybody everybody wants that
what are the pros and cons of that there
explains like this
in the first level where you just want
to be connected to the light
you want to be with the source it's a
very very high powerful level
and obviously you have to appreciate the
light and again only certain people can
appreciate it
but not want to be not wanting to be
disconnected
actually even though it it's actually a
deeper connection
the first level is a higher connection i
want light the only thing i
only only i want light i see light that
only i know light okay great
you're so to speak on the conveyor belt
with god
in the other way no i living in a real
world but the only things i don't want
to be disconnected
so the connection might not be as
powerful but it's actually a deeper
connection
why because i feel my essence
and my essence doesn't want to be
connected and because
my essence i don't want to be connected
it reaches every level any level you're
at nobody wants to be
plugged unplugged from life and this is
by everybody
and this is by everybody not only in a
concealed way but it's actually by
everybody in a real beautiful revealed
way
now what they ever said it's interesting
in this beautiful this this could be
looking at light and
being connected to light different
levels of humility when did whoever say
this he said this on
tishaw what's and we all know that when
when when when you
when the acidic disco said it's
connected to the time that we're in
what's what's the connection to the time
that we're in with tish above
because it's all about the light in
other words
in order to eradicate darkness what's
the goal
the goal is we got to get rid of the
darkness
again not only to replace the darkness
light comes in sniffer we're not busy
with darkness
that's only temporarily fixed but if you
want to get
rid of darkness darkness will not exist
you need the revelation of what of the
infinite light
in other words like this you need which
light the infinite light
in hebrew it's called the uh built
immigrant you need a
light that has no limit or for example
you need the light which is actually
in the source of light in the mirror
itself why
because the light that comes out from
the source
what's the purpose of light that comes
out from the source think about this
in the infinite light that's infinite
the light that's in the source of light
that's an infinite light the light the
ray of light that we have in this world
why it's only array it's not the source
why is it only array
because if the source was here there
would be no darkness
but because we have a dark world and a
dark world cannot be a res
to re we're not a vessel to receive the
infinite light
so the whole purpose of the finite light
is
to give light and darkness
that's its own purpose
the purpose of the light which is in the
mar
is a place where darkness doesn't reach
so again the infinite light is meant for
infinite light there's no darkness to
begin with the whole creation of finite
light was
so that in darkness you should have
light and rubber explains the same thing
applies to the light
before the symptom which means before
hashem created the world
and the light after hashem created the
world and never explains like this
the light before hashem created the
world
this world the dark world cannot
appreciate it and can handle it
so hashem made it simpson he contracted
a light he created a finite light
the purpose of the finite light was so
that a islam
a world a dark finite physical world
should have some kind of light
to be in this world in other words and
in this world what happens unfortunately
is
and i'll say it in hebrew i'll translate
in this world we're living in a world
where mathias mathias means physicality
limitations that's what are we excited
about
something physical something has a
limited limit limited energy
godliness something that's infinite wow
that's like a novel idea
where does that come from it comes from
the from the from the finite light
in this physical world unfortunately we
get excited about finite
we forgot that infinite is the real
power however
in this world when the infinite light
would shine in this world
or with the infinite light shines over
there
when the infinite light shines you know
what happens then it switches
elecus godliness becomes
basic and something which is not godly
doesn't have
has no room to exist so based on this
purpose is very very clearly
if we want to keep some you want to get
rid of darkness but not replace darkness
with a temporary fix
with a temporary happiness in order to
eradicate darkness
we need to reveal the light which light
the light from the moyer the light from
before the simpson
by revealing the infinite light
that will allow us to get rid of all the
darkness
that the concealment of the world cannot
go ahead and just
and and cover up the infinite light
so if you want to get rid of darkness
totally
you have to reveal the essence of the
light because the world will not be able
to block it
and that's why driver says it says in
the madrish that when mashiach comes
it's going to be like the light of day
and we mentioned before in the beginning
that the light of day
you ca the real light of day not our
physical light of day but the real
infinite light of day where it's not
it's not possible at all to totally
uh take take away and and uh and and
darken out
because you can have the infinite light
that more radically would take away the
darkness
so thereby simple question what do we
just learn
that in order to get rid of darkness not
replace it totally eradicate it what do
you need to have
you need the infinite light
so if that's the case how
will we ever go out of exile how will
the world ever go out of exile in other
words
explains very very simple in order we
made we just
learned it beautifully that in order to
eradicate darkness
infinite light has to kick in but we're
living in a physical world
we're finite human beings in a finite
world
so because we're finding you could we
handle infinite light we can't handle
infinite light
so if we can't handle infinite light how
are we going to have how are we going to
be redeemed how we can have the infinite
light in this world
so double explains very powerfully he
says like this
when hashem originally created the world
he didn't go ahead and boom create a
finite light
to create the world somebody did hashem
when he created the world he
first he created an infinite light from
the infinite light
he pulled out a finite light
so it was like this the finite light
that we have in this world
what's its source infinite light that
means
buried within the finite light that we
see all around
in a concealed way is what is the
infinite light is the ear
the infinite light exists it's concealed
but it exists and the world is
a vessel for it
the proof is because we have it now it's
just concealed
when mashiach comes when we're going to
go out of ghalos
the infinite light is going to shine
through the finite light through the
darkness
and will bring the real infinite light
into the world
so in other words like this
the infinite light yes will eradicate
the darkness
this world was created
from the finite light which source is in
the infinite light
so this infinite this finite world is is
a vessel because the proof is it has it
already now
albeit in a concealed way so in other
words the monument says
clearly two points in order to eradicate
gullahs
in order to eradicate exile in order to
take take away
darkness but eradicate it where it's not
possible to come back
so number one is
we need the light that wants to be with
the infinite light
because we need that powerful light but
on the other hand so we want the most
powerful light we want the infinite
light
and therefore we want that level of
humility we just totally
want to be one with the infinite light
but on the other hand
we need the light that what that's wants
to be with the vessel and could be with
the vessel
so that the infinite light will affect
this physical world
so we need both we want to have the
humility we are totally want to come
with the inf connect with the infinite
light
but we also want to have it to elevate
the light that's connected to the
physical world
so that the world could come the light
will come down to this world
and based on this very explains
beautifully a whole new
novel idea in the in the verse from ev
that says kate salam
ever translates as follows kate's
you can translate as the end but there's
also an understanding of kate's the
beginning
so the rabbit says like this kate's
kate's
somehow in the there's a beginning to
this darkness
this darkness of this finite world we
have a finite line there's a beginning
to it
why because before hashem created the
fight this finite world
this darkness didn't exist before hashem
created this finite world
the infinite light existed if the
infinite light existed
there was no darkness
when did darkness start darkness started
with the finite light that came into
this world but not the essence of the
light
so the truth is the essence of the light
is infinite
there was a beginning when
the finite light started now since
the world from when it started was dark
but but once the fact is when when the
sun created the world
it started with darkness it was a finite
light so how is the darkness going to go
at the end
so therefore he's the rubber explains
that hashem made from the beginning
from the beginning of time he made the
light that has no that
the light that has no connection with
the world the infinite light
should have a connection to the world
kate some
right from the beginning hashem made
that that infinite light
should have a connection to the world
why
so therefore at the end of time when
hashem wants when we're going to
eradicate the darkness it's going to be
something which is going to be able to
come into the world
and by in other words so the radio was
translating like this that right from
the beginning when hashem created the
world there was the infinite light
then he created the finite light but in
the final light he made the final light
is able to receive the infinite light
and therefore when when the end of time
comes when the infinite light has to
come into the world
it's going to be ready to receive it
because it had it from the beginning
and by doing that what what what are we
going to accomplish trevor says this
will allow the fulfillment of the dream
of hashem
as we all know nisaba kadesh baruch
burke hashem wanted to make taktoynum a
world which is finite
a world which naturally we say that it's
a world and god is oh my gosh
here in this physical world the infinite
light should shine in the world
and we have the power of making that
infinite light shine in the world
by as urban says clearly learning torah
toyota that will bring the infinite
light
and when you learn with humility what
happens is there's two things
number one is we have the yearning to
connect to that infinite light
but also we have the yearning to bring
down the light in the physical world
our intellect should appreciate faith
our understanding of torah should
appreciate the infinite light
and we fuse the two we will create the
ultimate
derivative and through that we will have
the kate's
son because right from the beginning
hashem gave us an infinite light
and all we need to do is draw it into
this world and we'll all merit
to the great revelation where the light
is going to be so strong not that it's
going to move away the darkness
where darkness won't have any
possibility to exist even from the
get-go
and we'll all see a true deer but
octonim
and as the rabbit finishes off the the
acidic discourse
dira lois barik a dwelling place for
hashem
not just the external part of hashem
but lat musa in the essence of hashem
thanks so much for joining us for axe to
this class and
let's hope that by learning to this we
will draw down the greatest light into
the world
and bring about the eradication of all
darkness and all negativity have a great
beautiful
lit up week a light a with the light
of toyora and mitzvos
