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
