Welcome to our class on this. We're
going to be learning a beautiful
discourse in the Reb. The name of the
discourse is called
the Reb said this discourse in Shabasu.
That year was the 13th day of the month
of in the year
55 years ago. So again, the discourse is
based on the verse in this week's Torah
portion where it says
that the Jewish people
are God's people and is this chosen
inheritance. So I ask a simple question.
Why do we have the a double expression?
It says
that the Jewish people are his people
and is his chosen inheritance. Why both?
Also, why does it say first amoy the
people and then we're called
also in the beginning it says
that we're part of Hashemself and then
it says inheritance also what he
continues on to say
we found him in the in the in the land
of the desert. What does the land of the
desert mean? So it's explained alter
explains referring to what the the
animal soul. So how could you go ahead
and say
which is referring to the soul, the
godly soul which is a part of Hashem
himself that's found where in the midbar
with the animal soul and especially like
like the exor explains and it's brought
down in that the the midbar the desert
is referring to the land of the snakes
and the scorpions
etc which is basically the place
spiritually where the three impure
levels of kipoto
So how can you say the soul is in such
such a low place also it says found what
does that mean it's you find it it's
like without even thinking and we know
the fact is we're not just found we are
the godly souls which is part of Hashem
himself and like like and like we say in
the in the blessing in the mornings the
soul that you gave me it's pure you
created it you formed it you blew it
into me etc. So what does it mean that
it's totally a found idea
also what it says
and it's explained many places that the
eagle it says with a in other words
what's it referring to it's referring to
spiritually raim tremendous amounts of
compassion more than the compassion of a
regular eagle and even more than the
comp the the the eagle and the chariot
of hashem as we're talking about h huge
levels of compassion. So the question is
what does what does this mean?
Says well understand this with an
introduction which explained before in
different civic discourse in reference
to the soul coming down to the body
that the soul came down to this into the
body down here. Why why is the soul here
to transform the world in other words to
elevate the sparks
of toyu that fell down when there was
the shattering of the vessels. So it's
very very powerful sparks here and the
soul is here to elevate those sparks. In
other words, the sparks of tyu are very
very high because in the world of tou
why is it so high? Because in the world
of tou
which means a level of acceptance
humility is very very strong. So in
since the world of tou a level of
acceptance is very very strong and you
have the shattering of the vessels this
this sparks are down here. So we're
looking for those powerful sparks and
like we explained before the difference
between the world of toyu and the world
of tick is that the world of toyu
is on the is the level of
an animal and the world of tick that's
the world of human beings and that's why
it says
that you know you have the two worlds of
and that tick is connected more to Adam
and is connected more to be And even
though you're going to say one second
Adam human beings we're hiding the
animals but nevertheless on a certain
level yes but the fact is in reference
to BL in reference to acceptance a
behema an animal has greater had great
has greater acceptance why is b means
you're totally accepting how is that
expressed in the name of hemutb where he
has a permutation where it equals letter
number 25 and 45 in Hebrew is me. So so
the the ultimate level of BL is in which
there's
etc. But what what name of Hashem is the
ultimate level of B? That's the name of
Ma and um like it says clearly says what
are we and that's the highest level of
acceptance. Now the name Ma where is it
revealed more in the word behema. Behema
is an animal. So if you take the world
behemoth what do you have but you have
me is revealed more than it's revealed
in the name Adam and like alter explains
in that the name of something is
actually that's what gives it that's
what caus it to be created and that's
what gives it energy. So it it it
represents who what the thing is and the
sins you see in the word of animal which
is behem the letters mehe is revealed b
hey me it's revealed me is revealed so
know be bo in it is ma and the same
thing literally that animal has more
acceptance we have a brain which is
great but we also that stops us from
accepting we have to think we have to
analyze we have to feel we have emotions
animal boom it just does what you it
accepts
However, when it comes to human being,
so you're going to say on another hand,
one second. Why are we called an Adam?
Because we're Adam, we compare to
Hashem. And also the name Adam is what
word? Alive dam. It's spelled olive dive
of man, which is olive dam, which on one
hand Allah refers to Hashem. Olive is
referring to creator of the world. But
dam in our in the name Adam blood refers
to excitement, passion which is the
opposite of acceptance. The minute you
start responding from passion and
acceptance which is great sometimes it's
not acceptance. And that's why Adam
which on one hand it's alf which is
Rashem but dam is the excitement. So the
numerical value of Adam alf is one is
four is 40. So you also have 45. So you
have the numerical value of 45 which is
ma but it's only in in a gamatria which
means it's not the thing itself the way
it's in a revealed state but it's the
way it comes down um through different
levels of of gamatri is like explain and
like it says what is its name and what
is name of it of a son what is its name
is referring to Adam which is only the
numerical value of ma of of acceptance
and the name of it son which is
referring to the behema. So behem we
know is numerical value is actually 52
but they all but has in it clearly the
letters of me and like ref the same
thing also we find reference to moisture
because we know received the from hashem
and mo we know his sources from the
world of
mo source is much higher we're from
and because his source is from that's
why he had he he stuttered and like it's
explained many places in That's why
moherenu's name because it's fromu
you have the letters mohas mesh shinh so
take out the letter shin you have mehe
in a revealed way in a revealed way so
moisture represents real humility and
that's the whole essence and the energy
of the world of toyu is all about
acceptance the lights of tyu are totally
cleaving to the source and that's why
they just want to go to its source why
because they have the highest level
ofcept acceptance and like the alter
explains in Tanya that the nature of
fire is to go high and higher and higher
and to go to its source. The only thing
that that's down here is the wick. And
that's why the light of toyu
is a lot a lot of light and there's not
only quantitatively but qualitatively
because it's it's connected to its
source and it's wholly accepting to its
source and it wants to nullify to its
source and that's with the light of but
the same thing also the vessels of that
the the vessels are are are minute which
is referring to the again the level of
acceptance which basically when you when
you're smaller it means not only
quantitative but of qualitative small
which is the whole idea of tou is all
about acceptance.
Okay. So we have a clear picture right
now that what to is all about to is all
about acceptance. Baha is all about
acceptance. Adam is all about passion.
It's all about me. Mo is the level of
acceptance. The light of of of to of
acceptance and the and the and the
vessels acceptance. So based on the he
like to explain that's why in the
beginning you're able to have the light
of the light in the vessel in the world
of tou. But the fact is how how are you
able to have the connect the connect how
is how is the light of of of of tou able
to go into the vessel. The fact is in
the world of tou there was a lot of
light and it wanted to go to its source
and how were they able to you know in
Hebrew it's called islapsious how would
they be able to connect based on what we
learned it's very very simple because
since the light of tou and the vessels
of tou even though it was a lot and it
was intense and I want to go to the
source but they had a key ingredient
which is b acceptance and therefore they
were they able to enclo but on the other
hand since in toy there was a lot of
light but the vessels were not strong
enough not not not not strong enough,
not quantitatively enough, not not
qualitatively enough. So therefore
eventually it left the vessels. Same
thing you say possibly that the source
of
is higher than the source of in Hebrew
it's called a very very high level which
the sources in the essence of Hashem and
that's why it says that they they they
were a king. What is what is the what is
I did that that they was a king. It's
the sources in the in the highest level
of elevation and that's basically our
spiritual work to find these holy sparks
of tyu which are very very powerful and
to go ahead and draw down and reveal
this powerful light of tyu of light and
vessels in toou and to go ahead and
elevate it. So that's our work. We got
to find these holy holy holy lights that
why because they have the ingredient
that we need. We need the idea of and
bas will understand why it says
what does that mean? Because on one hand
it says
what is the part of hem's people. What
is that referring to? It's referring to
the work of the godly soul.
We're part of Hashem. Then the godly
soul is a part of Hashem.
We're part of Hashem himself. The second
half of the words where it says
is referring to the animal soul
[snorts]
and the godly soul is coming and dealing
with the animal soul to go ahead and
transform it and refine it and to refine
the sparks of tyu which is in the animal
soul and because why is it like we
explained why is it trying to transform
it because it has the power of
acceptance and that's why when that's
why specifically the name yak
why yak
Because Yakov comes from the letter the
word heal which is the lowest level
which is referring to the animal soul.
And by going ahead and doing Yakov
transforming and finding the holy spark
we come to
we come to the level of inheritance and
which is basically transforming the
sparks of which we received as an
inheritance. That means we inherit the
lights of let's explained elsewhere. And
that's why he says the inheritance
the inheritance of his and doesn't say
the name
because this revelation is higher than
all levels of the way things fall down
from one to levels where it's where it's
mentioned in the in the four letters of
Jacob. It doesn't even say that because
it's even higher and it's even higher
than the the dot on top of the because
the soul waits on high. It says
it's a level of but after it comes down
and it comes down this world to elevate
the animal soul it actually goes higher
than so the godly souls connect
but when you go ahead and you transform
the animal soul you you transform the
sparks of tell you you go even higher
than the shame of and that's why it says
he's found in the in the desert because
this revelation comes
You can reach hiding by going down to
the desert to transform the sparks of
and it's called you found you found an
object which just happens by itself
because by drawing down by by drawing
down this by going down into the world
we reach above yes we we find treasures
and that's why it says Msiah the Messiah
is going to come also without thinking
like it says clearly
I found because the revelation of
Messiah which is often in charts and
this revelation is going to come by
transforming the the the desert and
that's why Mashiach says he's going to
conquer all 70 nations and all seven
nations which is the source of all the
70 nations and he's also going to
conquer Erit Ki
which is the three nations where we
weren't able to transform these he's
able to transform all the levels of
intellect and that's why he says
which is referring to he said it's the
highest level of compassion above levels
of
things come down from one level to the
next because by going down and
transforming the holy sparks of we
actually bring in from the highest level
of comp compassion and that's why it
says afterwards hashem
that we know is referring to the 10
hidden and it's explained in the
descript of the same word
and that's why it says that in reference
to yipper the the garments of the of the
of the priest is of bad of linen the
same letters bad linen which is
referring to to draw down from the level
of which is above all the levels of and
that's what he says
which is he means it's higher than
angels and like the medra says in this
verse
that we're saying is
we're going for the king himself now
drawing down
that gets drawn down through the highest
level. Afterwards, it comes on the
holiday of Sukkot, which is the holiday
of of of being joyful and happy until we
reach the end of the holiday. And then
we're going to have no other strange
nations are going to be there. Like it
says in the Medish in reference to the
Hashem says, "Come, let's spend time
together.
We spend the private time on."
And then we have after the whole the
season of tish the we go out to our to
do our work. We we take all the packages
of of all the treasures of of the
holiday of of
the whole month of for the whole year
until we're going to have the
fulfillment of the promise and we're
going to have
we're going to have the everlasting joy
and that's going to happen
with the true and complete redemption
like finishes off. to happen very very
very soon. So here you have a powerfulic
discourse that in one hand yes we have
an it's very powerful but by doing our
work transforming the world and and and
elevating the sparks of and finding
those sparks of bal acceptance we'll
reach the greatest places we'll have the
coming of Msiah and next class will
beesh
have a great and blessed week shabu and
to everyone
