The Kabbalah of Intellect & Emotions. A New Kabbalah class by Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz

welcome to this week's class in this this week we're going to be learning a beautiful hasidic discourse the name of the acidic discourse is called a lip kuday these are the countings the rebba said the specific discourse on shabbos pashas could they in tough shin lamid 51 years ago and in the year tough shin nun alef exactly 30 years ago the rebels certified and edited the specific discourse in honor of hey odor which is this week as well the birthday the birthday of the rabbitson so the acidic discourse again is based on the verse and the parsha the opening verse and the second torah portion this year it's two vayakla together so in the second thorough portion prasha pagoda it says this is the counting of the mishkan and the verse continues [Music] the mishkan of the testimony that was counted word through moshe that's the verse in the torah so the rubber brings down he says it's known the famous question that how come it says ham mishkan once and then right afterwards mishkan again why did it say in the same verse twice the word mishkan also the second questioner asks when it says elephant this is the counting in the mishkan it's the first question why did you say twice the second question is the first time it says hamishkan it calls it mishkan and the second time it says mishka naidos it adds the word of testimony in reference to the mishkan that's the second question the third question ever asks it says that it was counted alpine now there's two different interpretations what so what does that mean what was counted according to moisha was the counting the mishkan dos the one that says right before af and that's why it says phuket that was counted in a singular form because it's referring to only that one the mishkan aidas and there's a that's one inside the other insight is the other understanding is that when it says it was counted on according to moises referring to the mishkan the regular mishkan mishkan now the simple meaning is if it starts ailip kuder mishkan this is the county of the mishkan so the simple meaning is a white moisture in account the general mishkan so then the question is what how did these two understandings go together was it counting the regular misconduct was accounting the war the miscondus so the river brings from the altar rebel torah and he says as follows what is first we have to we're talking about the mishkan so you want to know why it says twice mishka and why it says mishka and why says mishkana dos which one is moisture no counting there's obviously there's two different insights so we have to understand what is a michigan what is the mishkan so we know it is the physical mishkan the place where hashem dwelt in the mishkan the tabernacle the mig dash basa migdas etc but what is the what is the mishkan mean practically so mishka means it means that's where the shrine of hashem dwelled in as the verse says clearly the us dash make to me a mikdash this and i will dwell within it so again anytime it says natural mishkan like in this case what does mishka mean the place that we made for hashem as amigos or is a miscon into this special holy place now so if that's the case that we're talking about hashem's presence coming down into the the mishkan so that's why it says mishkan which means mishkan simple mishkan and then it says mishkan in other words there's two different levels in the shrine that comes down and rests in this world what does that mean practically so in kabbalah it's called shrimp the lower level of srina and shrina allah a higher level of shriner and that's why the torah has to say mishkar and mishkinay this is two different levels of the screener lower level of screen or the higher level of screener now so that's in terms of the mishka now we all know that every single one of us we learned this in the previous discourses every single one of us is a mishkan a place for hashem to dwell and a mig dash a holy place for hashem and as as says clearly in the torah the australian migdash make referring to every single every single jewish person that make could and should make himself to be a dwelling place for hashem so therefore just like in the mishkan physically there's the shrina tata that comes into the mishkan and the screening law and since every person is a mishkan or amigdas rashem so therefore when it says mishkan in the torah stam and it says mishkana dos it's also referring to the mishkan of the jewish people now so that that's one insight let's take it a step further um we know it's rashi says when it says so the first it says regular mishkan then it says mishka on the mississ what does it mean testimony testimony for what so rashi says that it's a testimony for every single person that hashem forgave the jewish people in other words so there's two different so based on this you have the mishkan islam which is the regular place of sham dwells but then there's the miscreaned us representing the idea that we sinned unfortunately with the with the uh with the eagle with the golden calf and then hashem says no miss gone i'm going to give you a mishka which isn't wise i'm giving you a misgun so it's testimony i forgave you i'm going to come back and dwell with you so in other words so based on this drama explains when it says mishka in the first mishkan what is it referring to it's referring to our avoida of learning torah and doing mitzvahs when we learn torah we do mitzvahs we cause hashem the shrine to come within us but then when it says mishka and aid to us is referring to like the other what after we sinned we did shuva so the second this mishkan adas is referring to the avodah of truva of repentance so to be clear mishkan's referring to the avoid of terror in its voice the regular regular day-to-day life of learning targeting during mitzvahs and miss grenade this is when we unfortunately mess up when we do we do chuva and we repent so the rebel says he's going to connect us what it says the torah from the altareba that mishkan the first miscon is referring to the lower level which comes through doing tyrant and learning torah and during mitzvahs and mishkan dos is referring to the higher level shrink that comes through and ruby explains er explains what does that mean so he says is referring to in terms of the spheroids the tensioners that's called malchus the lower level of shrino and and shrinary laws the higher is the level of bena again so to recap so we have regular mishkan is and that's like that's connected to the sv reward abina so based on this rabbit says this is also the difference between when we do our spiritual work of learning torah and doing mitzvos and when we do chuva and that's because when we do torah mitzvahs that we're doing the mitzvah of hashem of the king so that's malchus on the other hand we do chuva that's that's the level of want of bino and rebecca goes on to say as follows in other words so what's the whole purpose of the mishkan mishkan aedus was to atone for the sin of the golden calf so seemingly mishkana adores his truva regular mishkan is terror amid's voice but since mishkarna adas is chuva and it's connected to the regular mishkan so therefore even though the main purpose of the regular mishkan day-to-day life is learning torah and doing mitzvos but you must say the arabic says that even in the irregular avoidance the regular void of learning torah and doing mitzvot is you also have in there included a component of what of truth of repentance so that's case what's the difference if you're saying that mishkan sam also has shuva and mishkinay this is also troops what's the difference so he says very simple that in the mishkan stamp which regularly it's terri it's learning torah and doing mitzvos it also has the component of achuva it's referring to the low level of truva on the other hand mishka na eidos which is all about real chuba because we did chuva for the qatar egal that is referring to what the idea of truva truvail which basically ever says that's also in line to what the alternative says on the torah because mishkan is the lower level and misca and and and and mishkan does the screening which is bina why and their explain is very simple because in hashem's name you have the yurt k bufke so you know you desmond hey espino vav is the midos and hey is malchus so chuva tatar the lower level of chuva is referring to tash of hay there's two haze in hashem's name so the lower level of chuva is tasha hay which is the lower hay which is the last hay and that represents malchus and chuva la is the higher hay which is chuvay law and that represents we know in the uk the hay is bino which it's really beautiful the way it's all connected so chuva tata is the second hey in your kevke which is malchus and truvailo which is the first hay and that's the idea of bino now that's in general but we know there's 70 ways to learn torah there's always beautiful different insights but represents there's also an opinion that says that the commandment of the associate migdas you shall make to the base and the the hashem commanded us to bring make the base make dodge and the banana sauce gave the donations for the mcdosh there so there's an opinion that says that that happened before the sin of the golden calf so if the commandment to make the migdos and the gifts given will be before the sin of the golden calf so it was so what how do you bring in the whole idea of truva it's according to an opinion that says that the usually mcdosh and the gifts were given after the sin of the golden calf so it's everything so far that we said is in line with that but according to the opinion that the commandment to to make the mcdonald's from the gifts that was before we sin with the golden calf so how can you explain the whole idea of that that's connected to truva what kind of true vote there was no repentance we didn't do anything wrong so according to that opinion the banay israel were on a level of assadic so what's the two based on that what's the two levels of mishkan and mishkana either because we built the whole thing around the mishkanete this is truva which is the a higher level of true and mishkanstein is tributary so the rubber explains that the two levels of mishkan which means the mishkan stam and mishkanedas is two levels in the service of azadek and um like the rabbit brings from the territory that says that what's the what's the level of the two levels of the service of the sadiq so the michigan is referring to the avoid of doing the positive commandments in other words when you do the 248 positive commandments that's the first level of mishkan that's one level that's just doing your mitzvahs another mitzvah another mitzvah another mitzvah doing positive mitzvahs that's the void of assad but on the other hand when we're fighting with ourselves not to transgress the 365 negative commandments so the poem you don't transgress but you're obviously you don't do this and you don't do that you're refraining from god from it from sinning so that's the avoider of mishkan edus the higher level so mishkan islam according to this an insight is the avoid of doing the positive commandments in relation to azadek and the mishkan aedus is the avoid of not transgressing with the negative commandments of the balchuva i mean the higher level of assad now andrew says it's possible to also say that these two ideas of mishkan in the avoid vasadik also applies to our internal powers our internal powers as well what does that mean so the the the mishkan which we said before is the positive commandments that's practically during the mitzvahs what does it mean in our koikes so mishkan stam is the void of santa where he works with his heart and mishka na eidos which we said before is is staying away from the negative precepts but what does that mean practically in our spiritual service that is only when we we work we work and we're connected to hashem with the alvarez of intellect so again to recap what's really saying is according to the opinion that the the the commandment to make the mig dash and the and the point we gave the gifts were before we sent the golden calf so they're both talking at the level of azadek one inside it's the avoid of the mitsubishi and the murder of the mitchell michigan style miss grenadas and more internally more spiritually it's avoided with our heart which is mishkan islam and they avoided with our intellect which is mishkan adas so whoever connects this to what it says the torah that what mishkan is referring to the um two levels of misconceptions the same slices say and he connects now they're always gonna explain beautifully the connection between the positive commandments and the um the positive commands and the work of the heart and the negative commandments and the work of of the of the of the intellect why so the rubber explains because the mitzvahs are say the positive commandments are in in hashem's name uk buff k the positive commandments are connected to the buff k which is the avoider of the heart and because we know that the the the midos is is um valve cave is the six meters and the last and the last hey is malchus so the the vodka is the midais which is uh which is which is the emotions are connected to the positive commandments and the mises lisa say is with the utk which is moishin which is and hey is bina so again the rabbit connects this idea of the avoiding mitsubishi mitsubishi the heart with the mind um um with the letters of hashem's name utkay which is moiken and which is midos so now we see that there's two different avoiders there's the avoider of um a regular of a of a regulat which is the lower level which is basically working with our heart and then there's the higher level which is the intellect is the same it's just let's say the youth carry in the bufket so now that you're going to explain this more in depth based on what it says in the torah and the country says as follows that hashem's name is uk wafkee it'd be clear it's a hey but we're just saying k because we don't pronounce hashem's name so utk valve k so the author brings in the term and he says like this that uk which we said before is a reference to which is referring to the intellect so the arthur says the contrary uk utk is referring to honey's stories it says materia honey story the secrets the concealment is connected to utk which is connected to the intellect and v which we said before is is the emotions so the doctor says and the vodka is neglige so now we're going into a step further that uh k which is represents which is hidden valve which represents the emotions is the revealed part what does that mean and rubber explains your k as we said before is moichen is intellect valve k is what is midos and moychen is concealment and middle east is revelation andrew is going to explain now more in depth and he says like this what's the difference between intellect and emotions from its real components the nerve explains like this [Music] intellect is for yourself that's intellect intellect is for yourself and there is going to explain it in in tremendous in depth midori's emotions is all for the other person for someone else and like there's going to explain now in tremendous in tremendous depth and breath etc another and so and that was the same thing also that just like by us intellect is for ourselves and emotions is for someone else the same thing also on high on a spiritual level that what the middle east of hashem the emotions of hashem the emotional series the purpose is for the worlds for outside of the spheres which means for the worlds and on the other hand intellect is above the worlds so there's another major distinction known as in us intellect is for ourself emotions for someone else on high intellect is above connecting to the world because the world means it's outside of of is of the r it's creation and on the other hand the emotions is connected more to the worlds now so because of that generally speaking middois is all about revealing to somebody else negligence revealing me noises me emotion is all about revealing on the other hand is concealment from somebody else and these stories it's hidden so practically you meet somebody and you share it's emotions intellect that's still reserved now to take it a step further and go a little deeper into it explain it's like this this that we say that moishen that intellect is concealed and emotions is revealed so what does that mean so whatever's saying is that the general idea of midos the general idea of emotions even emotions of our heart before you reveal it to someone else because not every emotion you shared yet you have plenty of stirrings in your heart plenty of feelings in your heart so there ever says even the emotions before you shared it you just cooked up about something emotionally you're excited in your heart about something passionately even before you shared it technically it's also revealed that's when it comes to emotions so again to emotions the essence of emotions are for somebody else even before you share it it's all about something which is for someone else on the other hand in the reverse when we're dealing with intellect even after let's say you meditate on something you think about something even after you share it with somebody else it's still concealed it's still concealed even after you sheared it it's still in your head and it's still it's still concealed what does that mean what does that mean practically if you shared a why is it concealed never explains like this because this that we say that emotions and feelings is for somebody else it's not only about the function of shearing and when you shared it but the essence of emotions the essence of the emotion is all about somebody else and electric as an example take for example the attribute of khasid kindness what is the whole idea of the middle cassette the medium asset means that you want to do something kindness for somebody else again think about khasit what does kassad mean helping somebody else that's the emotion now what happens if there's no somebody else it is paralyzed means you want to help somebody else not that you want to be nice means you want to help somebody else so if there's no somebody else chased is paralyzed it can't do its work it doesn't it has no purpose now the other says even though it's broke down in many places that you can't fulfill the actual act of chasse without somebody else however it says that the awakening the emotion of the feeling of wanting to give you know you can have a feeling to want to help and even though no one's there like for example ruby is a famous example it says mean to say is in his blood he wanted to help somebody he wanted to help another human being now so obviously he went and helped people we all know that when he was uh recovering from the circumcision so he couldn't hashem made it very hot no one should come bother him and he couldn't help somebody so it says aaron ravino was in pain why because the media said he could not fulfill it he couldn't literally serve somebody breakfast lunch or dinner or give so tell share a good good word he couldn't express himself hazard could not be expressed um in other words but so he couldn't do it and he was in pain from that but the fact is as hassan was active because he did want to help so if if he was in pain obviously he didn't want to help because it was working so what are we saying that is only if you can really actualize it and your bricks explains very simple because that's because there was someone out there that he could have helped so therefore was working he just couldn't actualize and he was in pain because he couldn't he couldn't he couldn't actualize it but what happens if there was no one magically there was no one in the world that means there was no one in the world that he could go ahead and share he couldn't do because there was no one in the world so how would you waken up the actual if there's no one there he was in pain because in theory there were people out there that he could help and he wanted to help so he couldn't help he was in pain what happens if there's no one out there who he's he wants to help what no one exists so in other words you need someone else at least to exist in the world so that should be activated but there's no one else that needs the hassaid how can you activate the khasid and i was taking a step further says that the media wouldn't have any purpose why because what's the media of hasid the media said is to be kind to somebody else if there's no one else the media is useless in other words to take to take it a step further avram was in pain why because he had no one to actually give the hustle he wanted to give to in others why was he in pain there was no one there so you see clearly he was in pain because hassan needs to reach another person and can't reach another person the middle class is not working in other words why why was he in pain because there was a lack he had the media he said and he had no way no way to make it happen so this that he was in pain because he couldn't use the media and make it work so that's exactly the point you see he couldn't he couldn't actualize it because without another person has no place and when you cannot physically help another person so this has it is not complete now is complete when it's a complete me that you have the emotion and you're able to actualize it but if you have these dreams of doing great things and you don't do it that's not it's a dream component is of two parts you have the need and the urge and the feeling to help and you actually help so without the other person to receive it doesn't exist and can't be actualized so again so you see clearly that the whole idea the essence of the media of khasid is for another person now so that is what we're in terms of the emotions so do you ever explain this clearly that when it comes to that the meat like their world of meadows the world of emotions it's all about helping the other person it's all about the other person you need something else to affect your asset now let's take in reference to intellect in intellect is just the opposite this that we say that moishen intellect is for yourself it's not only in reference to um that intellect is for yourself but cycle the intellect intellect is all it's all about you in other words when it comes to emotions it's all about helping the other person and without that was weak as we explained before at length but when it comes to intellect it's all about you and not only it's all about you you don't need another person when it comes to someone that's a thinker and wants to meditate and understand you don't need another person in other words even when you're totally by yourself an island without anybody you can sit there and meditate for days weeks months years on end if you're a real intellect now even though we know it's broken into this and it says many many places that when you explain your ideas to somebody else so the intellect gets sharpened like for example the famous statement of talmud me tell me that yoshimikulon said that he became smarter mainly from having to explain it to his students so rubber explains that's true but that only adds to the intellect but the at but that adds to the intellect but the essence of intellect knows just the intellectual capability of thinking and meditating your understanding is 100 possible without somebody else knows even when you don't have no one to share intellectual ideas you can meditate great things and not only that there ever since you're going to step further on the contrary to really get to the depth of understanding of something and really comprehending it sometimes somebody else is actually a distraction and therefore it's all it's known that most the scholars would meditate they would go into uh hiding concealment why because that's where you get in touch with real intellect and there are quotes in the talmud it says that the sanhedrin the big rabbis in the temple on the back from the from the bedin they would sit and they would discuss and they would um they would get delved into the the depth of the law a whole night and rashi says everyone did it on their own it wasn't like they did it all together everyone went to so to speak in their own world and they meditated on their whole on the whole night why because in order to get to the truth of an intellectual idea is specifically only when you d when you think about it on your own you totally be able to be objective and uh even according to the rambam that says that that it was actually two it was two partners two rabbis the other would discuss it so the problem says it was a benz it was a ben zugui which means somewhere on the same level as that person but not everyone together just literally two and two people on the same level now so again so what do we see from here that when it comes to intellect the essence of intellect is all about being in your own world and the country you don't need you don't want someone else now so what does that mean what we what what we started before where it said that that um intellect are histories it's concealed what it's all about what's in your what's in your depth on the other hand midoi's emotions it's neglige it's revealed because it's all about sharing with somebody else so in other words what does that mean because since the whole purpose of emotions is to shear so it's called revealed now what happens if you have these you have these feelings in your in your heart and you didn't share it with anybody so again technically you didn't share it but the fact is it's all for free for another person it's all that you're eventually going to share it you can't be cooked up with something without sharing it's actually very unhealthy it's very important if you have you know if you have emotions that are cooking you got to get it out you got to share with someone obviously in a healthy place with a healthy person and if you need a professional whatever it may be but the point is the purpose of emotions is to share and you need a healthy outlet you can talk to god that's the best place to to get it out okay so that's what emotions on the other hand intellect intellect is all about yourself and it's really not only itself it's it's self and not necessarily connected to somebody else now so therefore even when you share let's say you think about something you have an idea even when you share it so on a kabbalistic level even when you're sharing it it's also considered concealment why why is it considered concealment so there ever explains like this two reasons one reason is because let's say you have this tremendous idea deep idea that you spend hours meditating and thinking about it so even when you share it it's not the same intellect the depth the way you thought about yourself in other words because the fact is it's brought down a sentence that says that even when you share intellect you don't share it raw intellect you are excited about what you're sharing that means it's going through the channel of emotions you're you're you're bringing it into the package of emotions that share that through the emotions you're sharing it which means the essence of the intellect that stays concealed you spend hours days months the essence stays concealed you're sharing something through the channel of emotion that you're sharing with someone else but the essence of what you thought about that does not get revealed that's point number one another point derby says even the part that you reveal is because you decide you want to share this with somebody else but the general intellect even the part that you're revealing it's really all about me you're sharing with the other person where you're holding in other words like this there's times when you share something you want the other person to comprehend it you want the other person to get it a real intellect this shares his thoughts he's just sharing you he's he's not really taking you into his world and he's not really making sure that you get his world he's sharing you his ideas a thought an abstract thought so a he didn't really share with you the depth of it and b even when he shared it it was in his world you don't even necessarily get it you heard he said words and it's he just got it out but it's not really he didn't really fully share it so again the main point i was bringing out is when it comes to emotions me doings it's all about revelation it's all about sharing that you you get what i'm feeling and you can relate to me et cetera and i can help you that's it that's emotions intellect is all about my world and whether you get it you don't get at first i'm not sharing and even i do share it i mean it's i'm just sharing where i'm at and i'm not really making it's not really connecting to you because intellect is all about staying on on on on home base now and here there it takes even a step further it says like this back to intellect what do we say intellect is really not connected to another human being so the effort says now a step further not only is it not connected to someone outside of yourself but even to the person himself anything which is considered outside of the world of intellect he doesn't need to share it think about this till now we're learning sharing with someone else outside of yourself here they're ever saying a real intellect even in your own world your hands your feet your emotions intellect if it's outside of the world of intellect that's also not shared your hands and your feet and your heart doesn't know it doesn't really connect to the essence of your intellect your intellect does but it doesn't really share it and maybe it's not even impossible to share it because it's so deep now so let's say the person does want to share so you have to do just like in when something created the world he'd use a simpson you got to contract and you have to conceal that you know it's a power the intellect is very powerful so in order to steer it and the person doesn't get overloaded whether it's outside yourself even yourself anything external the intellect you have to conceal it you have to contract it and even the will to want to understand the intellect that has to be contracted why because anything that's outside of the world of intellect will actually confuse the intellect just like a person outside intellect will confuse him anything in your world outside of intellect will also confuse it in other words like this let's let's take it a step further even when you understand you meditate you understand it etc intellect and your hands your feet your heart it's two different worlds the proof is let's say for example you have an idea a deep idea how things should happen and operate etc does it doesn't necessarily do you feel that way no do you behave that way no because again intellect and reality is two different worlds they're not really connected so even though you know for example what the right thing to do is you know the right thing it's possibly gonna do the wrong thing or you know you're supposed to go here and you end up going somewhere else why because intellect is in its own world and behaviors in a different world and not always they connect now the truth is even though we do know that the fact is when you when you meditate and you were and you understand something it could bring you to being inspired 100 and it it obviously in cases it causes you to go ahead and do things as we know for example the expression of talmud it says god o talmud maybe the demise that talmud is great because talmud will cause you to go do the action so you see that intellect does have an impact on the world of action you know so they're explaining this it's not because that the intellect is there to affect you emotionally that you should feel a certain way or so you should behave a certain way because then there would be a connection it doesn't work that way the way intellect has an impact on the way you feel and the way you behave it's not in a way where it gets involved and gets enclosed and it actually shears but it explains whatever explains differently it's because intellect is like when you put on a big light when the light is shining so the the when the light shines in the room does it get involved in every single place that fights with it that it's feel the light no the light goes on you feel the light everywhere also so it knows when the intellect sees it it doesn't have to engage with the heart or with the action when the light goes on the light is on the heart sees the light the action sees and knows where to go in other words so we see from here that the effect that intellect has on all their attributes the emotions and the physical activity it's not because intellect was revealed so based on this job explains very simple that when we say intellect is nestorius is concealed so we mean that it's concealed even from the person himself his actions and his behavior and his emotions i does have an impact it's like light the light goes on but it's still really concealed so the world of intellect is a concealed world it does sometimes have an impact because the light goes on it has an impact on our emotions our action but it's the world of concealment so based on this that we have now a deep insight of the two levels of asadik which is the positive commandments and negative commandments the um emotions and the intellect um the utk the vof k and we have an in-depth analysis of what really intellect means which is really all about self and what emotion means it's all about sharing so based on this river explains what it says in the past let's go back to the verse what does the verse say this is the counting of the mishkan one type of mishkan me that's referring to the work of the heart which is all explained before it's all about somebody else all about the zulus and because mishk mishkan's referring to the heart and this is powerful that's what derivative says if you look at the with the word mischievous so we know when you have the letter hey in a word it's referring to hey haydea it's known hey means it's unknown what is the first mishkan referring to the work of the heart the heart is all about shearing and that's why it says hey because it's known you're sharing it that's why it's known because the essence of the emotions is all about guilty revelation powerful so again ham mishkan is referring to the emotions and that's why it says hey because it's all about revealing sharing but then it says mishka naidos this is the second mishkan what's this mishkanetos so miscreante does what is a testimony why do you have to say testimony if you see something do you do you need to have a witness for it no if you see it you see it the problem is when something is concealed you don't know so you bring a witness to tell you what's concealed so mishkan haidos so what does river explain very simple adas means you need a testimony if something is concealed so ha he mishkan is referring to the emotions which is revealed miss grenada is referring to intellect and that's concealed it's the avoid of the intellect and it's concealed and there it takes it a step further and he says that even in the intellect which is concealed which is the idea of mishkan hedos it's concealed nifty need to aid us the witnesses it's referring to not only external intellect it's referring to the internal intellect which is higher than having any connection with the emotions so what does it mean mishkan haidos mishkanetus means that the understanding of godliness even the understanding of premiums hamilton the internal motion the real depth is totally becomes one with the person that understands it up until the point that the essence of the person is what does that mean mishkan mishkan comes from the word of shaytan where hashem is dwelling in other words what swelling the light of hashem is dwelling in the person we are in the intellect higher from the light that goes in the middles in other words seven's explaining very simple miss grenadas means michigan on one hand it's shaping it's coming in coming in we air to the aedus the part that's concealed and based on this job explains why it says in reference to mishkan aidos it says again after phuket that it was counted through moisture so why because what are we referring to mishkan it should be shaykhen the the intellect the concealment that the concealment should be revealed how can we be a vessel for this powerful light of the intellect we just explained that intellect is so deep that it's the essence of its essence of concealment it's all about concealment how is it being ashaykhan how is it coming in i said the reverence is very simple that happens i shall puke it up because the fact that we're connected to moisture and every one of us have a connection to moisture the moisture of every generation by connecting to moisture we can have mischievous we can we can reveal within us the adults the biggest secrets of intellect in our lives we need more surveying for that and but the others is obviously you got you can't take the uh the the you have to even though this is according to this it's powerful stuff but what is a simple what does a simple verse mean that accounted is also going not only on misconduct the intellect which he brings in revelation but also mishkan also the original mishkan the one for the emotions why because when a person does the avoider which avoider of mishka na eidos which means he draws down the intellect the concealment you and through connecting to maisreno so then even though the regular mishkan is all about revealing and that's easier to connect but what happens then since puke and moisture is also going to as we said in the beginning of the discord it's goes going and the first regular mishkan that it elevates even the regular miscrime which is all about the steering but that also gets elevated to a higher level you can connect to it on a deeper level as well and how does that work and they ever explain very simple like we said before because what's the intellect it's like light once the light goes on it's all over the place so they are void of mishkan aida says that we should draw in the concealment in our lives we do it through maisha reno once we do that it has an impact on on on the regular mishkan through the fact that when you bring when you connect when you connect to the light the light comes and has and it permeates all over the place now so we learned so far that there's two different avoidance basically this is the avodahwat of the update of because the way the challenge we said it came at that the two two levels of the middles intellect and emotions now but nevertheless trevor says we all know that there's a tremendous power and tremendous energy of the avoider of the bolshevik over the avoid of the savage see even though one hand that sadik draws in tremendous light he brings in the light of the intellect into our lives and through that into every part of our lives through their void of moisture but nevertheless there's a tremendous power in their void of abolechuva why and they rub explains like this because generally speaking the avoider of azadek is the saint of ahadraga he goes one step at a time another mitzvah more torah he's in stability consistency that's life is good life is simple another mitzvah another a little more darkening more meditation bringing in more light like the bringing the light of the intellect that's concealed affecting the emotional side like regular regular beautiful life it's great on the other hand there's their body there without shoulder what's the about the obstacle they avoided about trevor is jumping jumping he skips some steps in a good way he he does things off the charts in other words the avoider of the balchuva is off the charts jumps very very high and matter of fact based on trevor explains that's why the avoid of the baltruva is the avoider of bino like we explained before in the beginning of the discourse the volume of the balchuva is wearing bena in the higher level the higher uk the hey there's the higher right the higher hey in other words it's just one second what sadie olsen works for his intellect he also does the intellect the intellect obviously he also does what a premium that's also connected to intellect which is bina so he says like this because when you differentiate between intellect and emotions what we explained before that intellect is disconnected from the person you're like in a different world emotions is all connected to the person now so since intellect is disconnected and emotions is connected so therefore moichen intellect which is we're talking now about the where is that specifically about that's specifically by baltruva why because a bolshover somebody that goes out of his comfort zone goes out of who he is intellect is deep in midos is connected to you the the but sonic is connected to reality he is connected in a beautiful way the balchu on the other hand goes off the charts so based on this trevor explains that this in the mishkan there's two levels in the mishkan there's the mishkan stam and this mishka na dos in other words what is mishkan connected to the world one step at a time but then you have michigan aidas totally disconnected that's devoid of the baltimore why because they avoid the vatsadik even when he works with his intellect not an avo attack his only emotions even when he doesn't mean intellect that's their void of michigan because his main avoid is the connected to the world connected to reality on the other hand mishkan adas totally disconnected now so now they're asked the question what's up that's the case according to this explanation that we're saying that mishkan is referring to so what's the connection between between between these two and the shape that was that was through moisture bainu and whoever explains very simple in other words what is moisture avenue we all know what is moisture revenue spiritually moisture banana was personified bitter humility that's what moisture raining was he was humble and not only humble this bitter hayes the physical gets humble but you still have somebody but or it's bitterness c is you're totally nullified moisherabenu was bitter mancius totally nullified as it says banach what am i what nothing moishebainu looked at himself nothing it's all about hashem he was totally humbled and you and totally dedicated to hashem now so therefore based on the strip explains asha pukadapi mauisha inspires what specifically the avoid of bitter bitter macias bit of macias is what where you totally don't exist is connected to michigan adas why because michigan adas is adus totally disconnected now but even though moisture of a new inspire is more misguided this which is total humility but nevertheless it has an impact on bakudiya mishkan as well why because when a person does truva which is the avoider of the bolshevik mishkanete this is the avoided so then even his regulatory mitzvahs are in a higher level so the avoid of truva which is connected to mishra naidus so even though that is a valid but it impacts the mishkan sum they avoided sadiq and brings that to a higher level like the famous line in the ghazal that tell us um repentance and good deeds what does that mean if you're doing true votes true then it's my century so it's two different two different worlds and the answer is no because when a person does chuva even the regular mitzvahs you do normally become maisim and they become good deeds that are totally lit up so the impact of chuva has an effect on your regular life on the regular mishkan now so take it a step further so when the avoider of truvas even though they are void of chuva is generally we're in the void of moyken but nevertheless they have both components as the component of truva the midos and also in the intellect the mishkan stam and the mishkinaidas why and never explains like this because there's there's something which is called chuva tata a lower level of chuva which is basically as we explained before that's when you take the lower hay tasha hey the lower hay and you're returning it back which is an idea of of malhas which is referring to um the hay into the vlog which is that which is referring to the with the the midos so the true tattoos when it comes to the lower hey which is malchus which is to the valve which is the idea of middles what's truvay law the higher level of chuva that's the higher you hey uk which is the idea true baillah which is basically bringing back the bina into the which is the avodah of the year the avoider of the intellect now what does that mean practically so there's two different levels of chuva there's truvator what does that mean practice never says this the lower level of chuva is generally speaking in reference to their void of terror mitzvos what's what's their void of terror mitzvahs you're learning torah and you're doing mitzvahs positive and negative commandments which is the avoider of sur merav assaytov so even though it's regularly we explained before according to one it's the void of sadiq but there's a component of chuva true versatile over there as well what's the the truva that when you're doing suva you're returning to you're turning to hashem and you're jumping but it's a lower level of truva because you're you're doing true what you're seeing with who you are as a human being and therefore because it's your existence you're doing true it's a lower level of truth your mercy is so therefore it goes into the category of middles emotions which is which itself on the other hand what's true law that's when you're returning to the higher level you're going back to the the the being is going to you're going to a place where you don't exist in other words the highest union even before um the the person so to speak got disconnected so this way what happens is a person is totally becoming one with hashem and when a person totally becomes one with hashem then that's the level of bino so based on this whoever explains that you have in mishkan there's two levels of chuva mishkan the regular mishkan that's a lower level of shuva and mishka naidos is the higher level of triva which is the level what of truevilla now how are these two connected to the idea of a phuket moisture moisture is inspiring both levels whoever explains very simple because what's moisture avenue moisture bainu is we said it's just bitumen see us totally nullified and that's connected what to the level of trivia illah which is mishka neithers but nevertheless even though it's officially connected to michigan a there's two way law but it has an impact on kudera mishkan why because when a person does the higher level of chuva totally bit of a macias intellect so then even your lower level of truva of the media is then it's also done on a higher and a different level so based on this therefore is now going to explain something very very powerful and he says like this there's um it's the although he explains that it says this is the kude of a mishkan the counting in the michigan literally counting so if the so doctor says could they also come from the word of pekida pakita is connecting or that we use even a deeper word becoming one so the article explains connecting becoming one and he gives an example a practical example like it says in the talmud it says let's say for example if you're if you're you're a married person and you're going on a trip so before you leave so that it says you have to connect reconnect with your wife before you're leaving and um it's it's it's explained in the other places in reference to um the three commitments that a man has to give his is his wife so it says he has to give her three things she ra which is food sousa which is clothing and they know so spending time together intimacy now that that's on a physical level food clothing and intimacy what does that mean spiritually so food we know just like food someone eats it becomes internalized so that's referring to a drawing down energy that the person could can accept and can relate to penemius something which is internalized that's one level garments what's garments it's a version it's a garment so what is that referring to that's referring to drawing that energy a mark of energy a high level of energy but doesn't go internalized but it goes around the person aina intimacy that's drawing down higher from makif of the bush so he goes from one level to the next uh internal external and and all you know is even from a much higher level and whoever says and he adds to it that not only by but through intimacy are you drawing down from a very very high level because you're drawing down the essence um but even when you receive it you receive it without any garments it's not a garment it's no regard so a it's drawing down a very very high level and it's also receiving without any garments and based on this gerber explains that the famous uh myth that people say about the religious people they have intimacy with a sheet and it says 100 not true why because the fact is if there's anything in in in between you have to get divorced because i have to draw down the highest level and there has to be with no with nothing in between that has to be 100 percent a real spiritual connection which obviously has to be obviously a physical connection as well now so based on this trevor asks a very very simple question in other words what does this doctor were saying in look at the torah aleppo has to be connection acid only connected it has to be yikhud totally one and like he gives the whole example of the marriage it has to be drawing now from the highest level without any garments and totally connecting on the deepest level this comes in continuation with the altar we just explained before that mishkan adas is drawing down we said the uh like the void of the of the of the tsadik the higher level of the the negative precepts the negative commandments which is higher than coming into a vessel and or and also and could be a michigan the first level of mishkan is drawing down the positive commandments which come into a vessel so in other words so he the alternatives explain that the negative commandments which um does not come into a vessel or it's the positive commands which comes into a vessel and here he's saying is that the kuda is poi kid it has to be from the highest levels where it's totally unified it's really the odd it's an it's opposite the opposite opposite ideas so how do you explain that how do you explain the two that's question one that asks next question i'm asked is um we have to understand rashi says something very interesting you know the question is why didn't say twice mishkan so until now we explained according to kabbalah according to mysticism the whole different levels of of two different levels of mishka marashi says what's the reason why the two mishkans because it's referring to the two mishkans that hashem took as a mosque as collateral um when the two temples were destroyed and why were they destroyed because we sinned so in other words when you hear mishkan twice so rashi says it's referring to nabak we sinned and the temples were destroyed and hashem took the mishkan as collateral so what are you hearing you're hearing us sinning on the other hand what is it saying look at the torah you know what mishkan is drawing in powerful high levels the the drawing and energy from the positive commandments the negative commandments up until the alternative says could they point it it's totally won so one second here we're saying it's on from this which is great it's powerful levels high levels positive commandments negatives it's drawing down all these beautiful things on the other hand we're saying it's destruction how do the two go together so the ruby explains his something very very extremely powerful and he says like this that what happened through the mishkan mishkan in other words that nebuchadnezzar golden calf again according to at least the opinion that this came that this came afterwards we sent it for the golden calf and hashem said guess what even though you sinned i'm giving you the mishkan as an atonement so what happens what happens like this when we sinned unfortunately with the golden calf was it a good thing or a bad thing so it depends how you look at it you can look at its face value you sit at the golden gate the people are sinning oh my gosh it's terrible siddha says no no no no when we are sinning for the golden calf why did hashem allow us to sin you think hashem just wants his kids to sin he led us to sin for no reason because by sinning hashem created afterwards a tremendous gift and a tremendous gift underlying tremendous gift of chuva so in other words the when we sin with the golden calf so you can look at it they're sinning no no that's not the way we look at it we look at it by sinning now we have an opportunity to do truva and to be clear there are my rights don't sin so you should do chuva you shouldn't sin to begin with but if you sin the positive aspect is that we have the ability to do trivial repent now so based on this and it's again a powerful idea that when you look at sinning when you look at the sin of the golden calf what do you see you see truva you see repentance a whole different perspective someone does something wrong you can scream look what he did no on the country this is an opportunity for growth you read that soyuzhaliyah going down so you can go higher so represent the same thing all says follow us on what does rashi say that we send we the the temple was destroyed twice hashem took the mishkan as a mosque as collateral ah why did we sin why did with the sample destroyed so based on this driver says why would we sin why was it destroyed so we can do chuva and what happens after we do truva we're gonna get back to moscow we're gonna get back to collateral not the same collateral even better even stronger stronger than before the destruction in other words like this the power and the superiority of truth of repentance you know in reference to the avoid of terror of mitzvos is that even after we get disconnected through sinning we can do truva tournaments as you learn terry you do mitzvahs wonderful truth is that when you mess up you can return how can you return hashem says don't do this and you did it hashem says do it and you didn't do it how can you how can you make up like people say it's spilt milk how can you get the milk back in the bottle it's spoiled it's dirty and the answer is because the gift that hashem gave us of chuva comes from the essence of our soul and the gift of trua that comes from the essence of our soul is connected with the essence of hashem not with the revealed part of hashem the torah admits it's a revealed part of hashem our essence of our soul connects to the essence of hashem through truva now since the essence of our soul is also not only the essence of our soul but it's the essence of all our attributes intellect and emotions so therefore we do truva which means we're bringing out the essence of our soul the essence of all of our attributes so then even the terror and the mitzvos that we do and how do you determine this would reveal the attributes you're learning intellect you're doing a mitzvah with your physical body hands hearts etc so what happens is but when you do shuver and you're bringing from the essence of your soul even the terror in the midst you do afterwards connects to the essence which is above nature which is connects to the infinite and based on this baseless driver explains that's the connection between aylib cody and mishkan where on one hand picoti comes from oneness and the other hand it comes from the idea of mishkan to drawing it down because when a person does chuva how do you do truva because unfortunately the mishkan was taken as collateral so our essence of our soul got revealed so then what happens is our torah and mitzvahs become without any limits up until pikuday from the last year we totally come one with hashem where israel the jewish people and hashem are totally one so here you see something very powerful the way you have now the opportunity to do shuva and when you do chuva you know what happens you connect to the essence of hashem and when you connect to the essence of hashem you have the ability to connect the sm even when you're just learning terry and doing this it's all terrific itself become totally different and rubber says that he'd like to add that this is what it says in the torah that the oneness is called pikida and what is the alternate use as a reference of oneness that it's called pakita based on the the where it says in the torah that um that a person is obligated in the talmud the person is obligated lift before you going away in a journey you have to make sure to become one with your spouse why do they use this this this this example from all the examples and whoever explains very simple because what is it referring to when you when you're leaving you're going on a trip you're not going to be home for a while so you have to connect before you leave on the trip and so why is he using this example and whoever says because he's trying to hint us as follows because besides the fact that mishkan that the mishkan that hashem took us collateral like we said before the tremendous hadith was so that we can do truva and after we do chuva what's gonna happen is our our connection is gonna be much greater in the way of pikiido on a much much deeper level but representing even deeper that even at this moment when we don't have the mishkan and when we it's taken away from us even then there's the oneness not that it brings to oneness later even while we're losing it we're connected to oneness and like brings and support that many many places the famous story where it says that um when the non-jews went into the nebuchad temple to to desecrate the temple and to conquer the temple and take away from the jewish people so what does it say so they saw that the uh the kurubim that the image is on top of the ark that they were facing one another now we the the question is a very very simple question because we all know that when the jewish people behaved the the faces were facing one another the krypton unfortunately weren't magically he would face the other way so the question there is asked when when they saw the faces facing one another which means that refers to the love of the two faces hashem and the jewish people just like two of a man and a woman they're facing each other because they're in love with each other when the gentiles came in to take over the temple unfortunately why were they able to take over the temple because we sinned and therefore they were able to destroy the temple so if we were sinning and that's why we were losing the temple so why was the why was the two crimes facing each other but what's the reason is because in the time of gullis when we are in exile we are like a woman a spouse that the husband left her and therefore since we were going into so we were losing the temple that means hashem was leaving us so to speak so hashem who's the husband has to be poique they asked to become one with us and because hashem had to become one with us because we were leaving therefore the crewmen were facing each other now the fact is we didn't feel it we didn't see it it was there it it was we didn't feel it the crippling was there what does that mean that even though we didn't feel it but cons in a concealed way for sure hashem was facing us in a revealed way there was destruction we lost the temple but in a concealed way the connection was there which basically means that through our spiritual work in gallus in hashem is not revealed right now and specifically when we do our avodah today of truva we return to hashem whether it's on the level of the lower level of our emotions at a higher level the level of intellect so then we're going to have the key dot not only in a concealed way but represents we're going to have the paquito when we do our avoid the ingalls and specifically chuva will have the paquita in a revealed way with the building of the third base amigdas and then hashem is going to give back the mishkan the mosque and the collateral which collateral the the regular mishkan the first michigan aid is the second one obviously all the different levels like explain this to the discourse with the mitchell shem coming the bias mashiach will come because mama's very very soon and very very quick this is obviously a powerful civic discourse it teaches us on the spiritual level the whole idea of of the two levels of the mishkan but here you have tremendous insight into intellect the intellect emotions but i think one of the major takeaway messages over here is that when someone nabach gets disconnected there's no disconnection there's no disconnection on the contrary the disconnection that we look as looks like in this connection whether it's within or from without or also somebody else it's really all about the opportunity to connect on the deepest levels and we connect on the deepest levels allows us to keep that fiery and deep connection into every action of learning terror and doing missiles which are seemingly a lower connection but by doing chuva we connect much deeper that helps us into every part of our life let's hope as deborah finished off and said mention before the next class will be together in your mirror because have a great and blessed week
