chapter eight this is the last paragraph
of the mimer
it begins while pisa yuvan you see val
pisa yuvan
indian tennis in this paragraph
we have the summation of the entire
mimer
valpiza yuvon based on everything that
we learned
now we'll finally understand indian
titus ameraglam
the deeper meaning in the taina
in the complaint in the lamentation in
the revolt of the spies
they said
that eric's israel the nations the
tribes living
in the land of canaan are more powerful
than he there is no way
the spies said that we can enter the
land and defeat
our enemies and conquer this set the
region and settle there it's impossible
the spies as we remember came down they
came back from their visit
and they alarmed the nation
and they inculcated into their hearts
profound
panic hysteria and terror
and they made them so emotionally
traumatized by the prospects of entering
into the land telling them
that everybody will die by the sword
their wives and their children
so even if the adult men were ready to
fight but who wants to see their
families be killed be slain and they
said everybody will be slain in battle
there will be no mercy
you are dealing with giants you're
dealing with
fortified cities muscular
men powerful mighty ferocious
warriors who will simply
late waste the entire nation of israel
we simply don't have the ability we
don't have the capacity to enter into
the land
as they put it it's a land that eats up
its inhabitants it will consume all of
us
so now we're going to understand after
this whole long moment we're going to
understand
this conversation but we're not
discussing it from a physical
point of view in terms of conquering the
physical land
which is a particular geographical
region in the middle east we have a
principle in
shabbos says
should be extricated from its literal
meaning so there's always the basic
literal story
of the spies going to the land and
coming back and dissuading the people
from entering everybody's overtaken by
fear they say we're not going and they
weep the whole night etc
but there's also in turn as we discussed
so many times there's many layers
of interpretation and they're all
interconnected they all evolve
from each other just like tears evolve
from deeper emotions and the tears are
very physical
the emotions are not necessarily
tangible with your hand but they are the
cause of the tears
so every story in terror operates on
different layers there's the layer of
the story that is very tangible and
concrete and physical and practical
and then there are the deeper layers of
the story the emotional layers the
spiritual layers the metaphysical layers
and they're all interconnected and
they're all true that's why we say
interred is
shot and remembers and russian side
paradise in other words
there's different dimensions and
different perspectives there's different
lenses
through which you can capture each story
just as when you tell me a story
i can hear the story and experience it
from different perspectives
depending on which glasses i'm wearing
depending on which lenses i'm employing
in order to look at that story right the
same person can tell two people a story
but the two people heard
different stories somebody maybe who has
more sensitive lenses
or who has deeper lenses or more
penetrating lenses
here's in that same story a deeper
dynamic or momentum
that is unfolding which the other person
would not hear they just take the story
at face value
so the zohar says apartheid on to the
person
who strips
tighter from its inner meanings and only
sees the external layer the physical
layer that
the soyuz says woe is somebody who's
only sees a body and doesn't see the
soul inside of it
and he calls it the circles that gopher
dayrise and the shmasa dairy
the body of tyra and the soul of terror
so this is a very important fundamental
intro
for all the memorial that we learn
because basically
siddhis is what's called pinimya satya
nishmasa
rice this goofy rice it is the body of
tyre like the physical body of tyre
and that's the way the divine wisdom
assumes a physical concrete incarnation
and then there is nishmasa there is the
soul of terror which vivifies the body
so here is a classic example for this
we have the story of the spies the story
of the spice on a literal level is about
ten spies versus two spies who had this
great debate
if the jews can ever enter into this
land and the ten prevailed
and there was a national hysteria and
the jewish people decided we're not
going into the land let's go back to
egypt better to have died
in egypt and live there as slaves then
just
and then die and natural death as slaves
then go into the land of israel try to
be free
and get killed
but now here after this whole mind we're
going to explore
and find the meaning of the story from a
deeper spiritual point of view
so he says now we'll understand what the
miragum said
that the people in israel the nations
the tribes and canaan are more powerful
than he
and our sages say
they don't say that the people there
are more powerful than us they say
they're more powerful than he who's he
so our sages say it's talking
this is an expression from the gemara
insight that he burned in the beginning
of the miami
even the master doesn't have the power
to take out his own vessels from the
house even he has no access
it's like you'll say this house was
taken by thugs
the squatters have to overtaken the
house and even the owner balabayas can't
go in
and take out his furniture he can't take
out his couch
he can't take out his safe he can't take
out
his utensils
himself can take out the caleb which is
an incredible
accusation that the spies say that even
god himself so to speak
lost control he lost he can't do it
it's too powerful even for him what does
what does all of this mean
so again we have the explanations on a
literal love but this my mirrors now
says
that they're also talking about a deeper
layer of existence
there's a famous expression of one of
the great kabbalists
which means the stories of town are
really talking about
spiritual realities they intimate
to physical realities the ramban put it
a little differently he said the torah
is talking about physical realities but
alluding to spiritual realities what
this means is that all of the stories in
the torah really
can be read as an internal dialogue
between different parts of your own
brain
yes the stories employ people and names
and regions but essentially those are
metaphors
those are physical illustrations of an
inner story of an inner dialogue of an
inner conversation that's happening in
you
so the conflict between
cayenne and heaven or joseph and his
brothers
or yitzhak and ishmael or yaakov and
asaph
they're all conflicts that happened in
history but
really says the ramen these are really
internal spiritual conflicts
the physical people are just a physical
manifestation of those stories of those
dialogues of those struggles of those
challenges
in a very tangible world which also
explains what the matter says that two
thousand years before the world there
was a terror
what it means most of the terrorists
talking about stories post creation how
could it be a terror
hazal material islam two millennia
pre-creation was there a terrorist the
whole torah is about
creation and post-creation the
patriarchs and the matriarchs and the
tribes
and the descent into egypt and the
egyptian exile and the egyptian bondage
and emancipation and
the sinai and the journeys in the desert
and the building of the sanctuary
and moshe's passing all the way at the
end well what do you mean it was the
2000 years before creation
and i thought that creation also created
time
so it was not 2 000 years before
creation time itself is a creation
the answer one of the answers to this is
that when we're learning about torah
we see terror as physical stories of
physical characters that happen at a
particular
moment in time and at a particular
location in space which is all true
but there is a higher dimension of
terror where all of it is essentially
a spiritual reflection on some of the
most important truths
of existence and beyond existence
this is a fundamental understanding as a
prelude to the entire
perspectives to the perspectives of
kabbalistic and hasidic teachings
into almost all the stories of the tyre
and here is a classic example
the rebbe sees the debate between the
spies the ten spies and the two spies
as a struggle happening between the mind
and the heart
between our primal drives and the other
things going on in our psyche
and we now go back to all of the pieces
of the puzzle
that we spoke about in earlier classes
and this has been a long stretch
so we now come to the eighth chapter
it's really the ninth inning but it's
the eighth chapter
the grand finale so now
says the rabbit listen to his words
the tiny the complaint
the fear of the spies
was authentic you're not talking about
lies falsehood
so now you're going to tell me what do
you mean it says that the miragum was
chakron
they were liars the fact that the nation
accepted what they said
and the fact that moshe sent ten twelve
of the greatest
leaders of israel kulam russia bene
israel
they were all leaders they were
qualified people
my shows them he picked them
he hand picked them and he sent them
rashid says
they were great people when they were
sent he says this means that they were
saying something profound they were
saying something authentic
because if one understands how intense
and how primal the midos of a person are
especially the medes of toyu
the midis of that our most primal state
of being
known as toyu the world of chaos
you cannot introduce any
influence of any influence
of the intellectual faculties of
cognition
of reckoning of discernment of analysis
of perspective of values
they will not work in other words
that are touching on some a very
fundamental truth in a person's life
and that is that the seven nations
living in kanan
are a metaphor for seven meadows so when
we speak about
going to the land and conquering and
defeating the seven nations it's really
metaphoric language for dealing with my
own
seven midis with my own primal drives
and those primal drives are so intense
are so powerful that nothing
in my system can possibly even negotiate
with them
never mind suppress them never mind
defeat them never mind change them
that's not happening
that's how he opened the mimer
and from this the mimer went in to
discuss what midos are
and the power of me does and this is
true even in middle east of tikkun
never mind in middles of toyo and as he
said right in the second chapter of the
miami that the middles of a person
are so primal and so intense they're
pre-verbal
they're prima shava they're pre-sacral
and therefore they cannot be altered
they cannot be changed
and that's how we went into the whole
explanation that motion there's always
change
in medicine
is based on change it's based on growth
it's based on exploring another angle
another perspective
reversing my position of yesterday it's
the openness to constantly change
and that's what a real abomination is
real intellectualism is the openness to
constantly discover
new things to expand my horizons to
reverse my positions from yesterday
the worst thing for an intellectual for
a scientist is to remain stuck in a
position
based on biases and blind spots
it's the greatest danger to any science
to any intellectual discovery in any
branch of wisdom in any field of wisdom
whether it's mathematics
or medicine whether it's psychology or
cosmology astrophysics whatever it is
and the
certainly entire that way
it's always the openness for new things
that i miss a detail
that i miss uh angle did i miss a layer
did i not understand the question well
did i miss this proof there's always
that growth and that change
me does he says
the middle east he said europe
these are your innate primal
drives and proclivities it says they
capture who i
am it's not what i have what i possess
it's who i
am and i have to respect that in me
i have to respect it of my spouse i have
to respect it in my children
and i have to respect that in other
people
and all of that void in the middle is
that we speak about the rebel says
all of that that we speak about changing
your middles
he went through in chapter two what that
all means
i could change how they're harnessed how
they're channeled
how they're expressed
but the core of the media he says is not
changeable
and the reason is because the media is a
mirror
media is a primal drive it's a mirror
of characteristics that are embedded in
the essence of my soul
and he gave an example that is the
difference between rotsen and segal
is something the soul has it possesses
it cultivates but it's independent of
the soul and even when there is no eye
that my ideas can still remain for
posterity rot saying by definition is
i want when there's no i there's no want
the value of ruxin is that i want it
as we explained this at length the value
of rutsen the value of cecil is not that
i
said it it's that there's an idea
there's an idea outside of me it's in me
i cultivated it i developed it i believe
it
i think about it i wrote it down i
publicized it
but it's not me the definition of an
idea is not me the definition of an idea
is me it's not a real idea
the definition of desire is i i want
i want if there's no eye the whole point
of rutsen is gone
and that's why he said with wrought sign
there's no big ruts and small rocks
anyone say
oh this doesn't really have value this
ruts and get rid of it
because the value of rotzoid is not the
thing
i want it's that i want it
and if i want it that is what gives it
the value
it's very important in relationships
this is so important
we did a marriage workshop a few nights
ago
here in muncie so i opened it up and
uh marcia zev lam who's a marriage
therapist here in muncie did the
workshop
we had a very nice crowd here for muncie
people drove him from cincinnati
10 hours from manhattan which is not
which is an hour but it was really nice
so we're continuing it next tuesday next
tuesday night
about how to communicate with your
spouse but he shared a story
of of a person who came to him for
therapy
it was so meaningful and very emotional
story
there was this boy there was this uh
father
i guess he went on a trip anyway i don't
know exactly the circumstances but he
bought
gifts for his children so for the older
children
he bought a pen a nice pen a parker pen
or another fancy pen
and for the little ones there were two
little ones i think a three-year-old and
an eight-year-old
and he gave them he bought them a little
fire fire engine truck
okay so the three-year-old got the fire
engine truck and i think the eight maybe
the six-year-old or the eight-year-old a
little bit older got the
got the fire and drunk and the older
kids got the pen
the problem is that the three-year-old's
fire truck broke
i don't know the battery died or it
broke it broke so it was hysterical
he was crying and crying and he was
hysterical nouveau stuttman
the six-year-old didn't want to give up
his fire truck his fire engine
right so the older boy was an older boy
i guess
the teenager and he says i have an idea
let's give the six-year-old a pen
i'll give him my pen because he's a big
boy
and he'll give the fire engine truck to
the three-year-old
because our six-year-old is already a
very big boy
so lovingly the father took away the
fire truck from the six-year-old and
gave him a pen because he's a big boy
and he gave the fire truck to the
three-year-old and everybody kept on
telling him what a big
boy he is and therefore he gives the
fire truck to his brother and he ends up
with a pen
it seems like a nice story right and
everybody was of course very thankful to
the older boy who gave up his pen
to calm down the three-year-old and mr
lam says
20 years later 30 years later this
person is sitting in his office and
crying
and he says that all night he cried that
big boy
who lost his fire truck that
six-year-old cried all night that he
lost his fire truck
he didn't want the pen
he didn't want the pen he didn't want to
be the big boy he was forced to be the
big boy
but for him the fire truck was so much
more important
because this is what he wanted in terms
of objective value
we know what is more important but
my desire is not about objective value
it's about what i want and that's such
an important idea so for 20
20 years he carried this and he had to
cry it out years later he said
all night he was crying in his room he
couldn't show it
why couldn't he show it because he was
the big boy he didn't want to be
humiliated even more
but 20 years later he was having a
difficulty expressing emotions to his
spouse
and to his children because he shut down
many of his emotions that night because
the feeling was too painful
now you could say oh that's part of
growing up somebody in the crowd said oh
that's life
that's just growing up that's how life
works it's true
that's exactly how life works but we
have to acknowledge
these little stories which seem
insignificant but they're very
significant
because these emotional memories in a
child's life when you're an adult
can impact you so significantly and
they're paralyzing me
and they're suppressing or destroying or
eliminating
or holding back a certain part of me
that is so authentic
and is so important for life and for the
joys of life with the experience of life
but i can't have it because i shut down
them
so one has to be extremely sensitive to
the difference of
ratsen and seiko
so he says midis is the way rothside
comes down
in a lower space in those drives and
then emotions that i have
but it's a manifestation of razan which
is the desire of the soul
and in a way he said it's even deeper
than ratsu
so when the miragulum say
the seven meadows are untouchable
do not try to change them
do not try to silence them do not try to
repress them
my primal drives are non-negotiable
immutable they are ferocious
they are primal they are innate they are
essential
and because of that they're untouchable
there's no way we can go and tear it to
israel we the jewish people go and take
israel again this is a metaphor
for the seven midos of tahu
whose intensity is incredibly powerful
so therefore the miraculous say the
whole concept of
michigan has no role to play
you're going to introduce intellect
you're going to introduce
ideas you're going to introduce values
they have
absolutely no role to play and there
ever says
this is a taina amites this is real
stuff
because if you don't understand that
this is real there's no getting to step
two
you have to understand how real
the statement of the miraculous you have
to understand
that it's a tiny mythicist this is not a
fake thing
people want to ignore their primal job
say
it's nothing grow up be a man
very often
when we grow up we understand or we're
made to understand the concept of bitter
or the concept of morality or the
concept of values
or the concept of avidis hashem as a
path
in which you have to
disregard your pettiness
disregard your emotions because
come on just be a person be a man
be a woman be a mensch there's truth
this is what god wants
you say yeah but i experienced this and
this is what i'm dealing with
i don't care just grow up
what do they tell you grow up don't be a
baby
don't be a cry baby fire engine
that's what you're looking for a fire
engine truck i'm giving you a pen
i can give you a check for ten thousand
dollars you'll say no give me a lollipop
lollipop cost uh 25 cents
okay today maybe 90 cents
a lollipop i'm giving you a check for 10
000 bucks
makes a lot of sense right so we often
understand or we could understand
that the idea of serving god of
of being a good person of living a moral
life
living a life based on torah and
mitzvahs
what does that mean that means that
i disregard i have to disregard a
certain part of me
the part of me that is that is petty
that is babyish that is childlike
that may have all these types of
emotions like forget it get out of it
this mimer is telling us something very
shocking
the way to transcendence
travels through
my middles and
maybe take this with a grain of salt the
way to transcendence
travels through my pettiness
because what you're calling petty what
i'm calling petty
is just the concrete manifestation of a
deeper drive
my primal drive that ebb says in this
moment that the midis are not created by
seiko
they're they're affected by seiko but
they're not created by seiko
the midos is who i am and you cannot
serve god if you don't know who you are
you certainly could you could serve god
but it's not going to be so wholesome
and you cannot be in a relationship if
you don't know who you are
you can't be in a relationship that is
real if your eye
is not present in that relationship and
if my middays
are mirrors of my eye i have to be able
to respect them to embrace them
to give them a voice so that they can be
present in this relationship
with my wife with my husband with my
child with god with myself and with
anybody else in the world
did you understand what i just said
we have mikhail from sydney you're with
us
you understand you're trying to
understand
i don't know if you can understand this
you have to feel this
now as i said that we spoke in previous
year
this media is in their source there's
the way media has come
down as visceral emotions that i'm
feeling in my body
whatever that is i'm feeling angry
i'm feeling sad i'm feeling lonely
i'm feeling anxious i'm stressed
i'm feeling anxiety i'm feeling
frustrated
misunderstood resentful right
negative i'm feeling animosity i'm
feeling a lot of
fear those are very visceral emotional
reactions
and you could say just ignore them
they're nothing they're they're stupid
they're immoral they're coming for me
it's a heart
he says wait you have to understand
that these are simply the way your
primal drives
your deep deepest medicine which is
pre-verbal
prima pre-sale higher than
they're being manifested
now sale does play a significant role
because as he says
sekhal serves as a maramaka it labels
and categorizes people
and experiences and things to be able to
show the primal drives
where to be expressed and how to be
expressed
this is dangerous zone this is a
positive zone
so let's say my spouse tells me
something
or your spouse tells you something and
you're feeling
misunderstood were you feeling rejected
and therefore you're feeling very lonely
and that's painful
and it creates a distance that may be a
very physical tangible emotion that you
push it
you could feel it in your body it's not
just an idea
it's not just an idea it's not a piece
of gemara it's a feeling it's an emotion
it's an emotion
you may be exploding with it you may be
imploding it may be benign it may be
very intense
what was the role of seikol here
took the words that your spouse said and
labeled them
as being a message that
undermines your connection to each other
those words were processed by your mind
as words that represent the fact that
you are lonely that you're misunderstood
in this marriage
listen carefully but why does loneliness
make you feel rejected why does
loneliness make you feel bad
why doesn't it make you feel good that
is because you have a primal
drive that you want to be attached you
want to be connected you don't want to
be lonely
lloyd so the way this primal drive was
channeled and the way it came out was
that right now
you are very upset and you feel so
misunderstood by your spouse and you go
into your own world and you may space
out
you may tune out you may detach or you
may get angry you may get passive
aggressive whatever it is
your sacral played a role in how a
channel was channeled and how it emerged
how it was
birthed as he said seiko are the mothers
and the fathers who birth a child
they birth the medics into being that's
why we have a mommy but the mommy
doesn't create the soul of the child
saccharo doesn't create the media the
media is pre-verbal pre-sec
everything the media comes from the
etzeman effect the essence of the song
come to miraglum and say
just let it go don't go into your primal
drives just let it go
and that would mean that if my primal
drives are wounded
if my primal drives have been hijacked
by toxicity by trauma just let them go
there's nothing you can do
and this is where the miraculous say we
cannot conquer that space
and the rabbit says their time is ms
why because cannot have a say
into the world of midas midness are too
ferocious they're too real they're too
primal they're too innate
they transcend your seiko cannot have an
impact
we cannot conquer the seven meters
there are two ferocious they are too
powerful they are too intense
leave it alone leave it alone wow
you understand the seriousness of this
so if my primal drives have been wounded
their expression has been wounded which
is what real trauma does
the miragulum say
it's just too powerful sahel has no say
because sekhal is not a bala bus they
come before me they come before segal
they're like don't tell me what to do
don't tell me how to feel don't tell me
how to experience
i was here before you i'm bigger than
you i'm stronger than you
you want to fight i'll kill you and the
more sacral tries
the more middles prevail and as he said
before in the miami
not only does sachel not have ownership
over the middle seca doesn't even
show up in their world seiko doesn't
even show up secular is an erp nami
a neuropathy can only affect others by
going into their world
and these middles are untouchable now
comes the other side ah
after you understand this or you feel
this you get this
caller
can vanender conveyor
when khaled silences the whole people to
my
is
khalif silences the whole nation to
maisha
what does it mean to maisha surashi says
he starts speaking about my he says this
is the only thing that marsha did
he took us and everyone thought he was
going to start
slandering marsh and then he spoke about
the greatness of my
says there's another interpretation of
he directs the attention of the nation
he silences them
through maisha what's my masha
tells the jewish people
more than once in humish and pasha's
bashal and he says
what are we that you're attacking us
what is says ma
represents two words
the kayak of what
represents bittle what is bittle
bittle is the ability to say ma what
it's the ability to wonder to be
inquisitive to be curious
it's the ability not to be fixed in any
type of comfort zone intellectual or
emotional it's the ability to say
the strength the power the faculty the
capacity to say my what
that's why
is always responsible for discovery
is the seminal point that shows up in
your brain
in your mind it's the epiphany aha if
the light bulb goes off it's the
lightning and the thicket of darkness is
a lightning and suddenly
you see it and say ah i got it
always comes from a place of deep deep
humility deep intellectual humility when
i suspend my intellectual ego
and i open myself up to a new truth that
has transcended me and eluded me until
this very moment and
opens me up to this because my ability
to say ma
i don't know i am not the master i am
not the expert
it's like in a relationship the greatest
relationships aren't the relationships
in which i know you when i put you in a
box
it's the relationships where i
continuously
open myself up to learn more about you
with humility and respect and compassion
and you do the same for me
and then you we help each other do the
same for ourselves
do i really know me do i know me how can
i know you if i don't even know me
and i have spent a lot of time with
myself
do you know you but when i realize that
i don't know you
and i'm open to that discovery so then i
help you
realize that you don't know you and you
yourself are open to that discovery
that's all part of
also means something else it's the kayak
of mah
it's the kayak of bittel ma means what
i don't have a fixed model ego is the
antithesis of ma
mursh rabbeinu said about himself
i am a channel this is not about
nepotism
it's not about dictatorship it's not
about me owning your life
and that's what represents in a person
it's the kayak to say matt the quest to
say what
and it's the kayak that allows itself to
become
a channel for something larger than it
because it's not based on identity it's
the ability to go beyond identity
vayas kalivasam al-maisha
khalif silence is the nation to maisha
in response to miragulum
and then the mind and the heart can make
peace
then the middles can be affected
in the most positive sense by the mike
through the bittle of mushroom and this
is what we remember the whole last piece
of the mime
when he discussed how can mike can have
any impact on meters
the primal drive is untouchable that's
what the miragum are saying and it's
true
and the fact is that maison do impact
middles
in more than one way first of all
as i said before they're the mirror
mocking they label things they
categorize things
even deeper than that the motion are
responsible for the development of midis
from the amygdala to the limbic brain to
the prefrontal cortex
from the middles of an infant and a
toddler and a child
growing up to more developed middles
to the middles that are more mature and
this is constantly happening in people's
lives
but how does that even happen how does
sacho love any say
into that world of medes and the answer
is because
real sacral is not about sacral it's not
about i understand
it's about introducing me to bittel
introducing me to the ainslief opening
me up
to the infinity that encompasses
everything and is the source of
everything including the source of all
the primal drives
you're right when we have we have
difficult experiences that shock us and
it's hard for us to make peace with them
they don't assimilate easily into our
system
we have to really embrace them with
silence
we have to really pay tribute to all of
the emotions that are coming up
and to all of the experiences that are
coming up to all of our visceral
reactions
and that will open us up to the primal
drives that we have
and you don't get rid of those primal
drives but
you can open up the primal drives to the
silence
of moisture
moisture couldn't speak moisture was a
quad power quad
lushen he told god
i'm not a man of words i am pre-verbal
don't defeat and change your primal
drives through arguments
through rationalizations through
justifications through external pressure
or internal pressure
surpassed i got to be a person i got to
be a mensch
oh yeah yeah your primal tribes will
will
win that war but only if you can
introduce
real bitter what's real bitter real
bittle means
the space where my eye meets
god's eye the space where i can
recognize
the ain't safe the infinite
the ability to be able not to label
things not to categorize things you see
seikel has two aspects to it one is
the intellectual need to label
to categorize to define which is amazing
but that's the external part of cycle
the real internal part of circle is to
open myself
up to the source to allow everything to
be traced back to its original core
and the original core of everything is
inserted my primal drives also come from
there
so when seikel especially which
bittle opens me up to that space
now my primal drives
themselves open themselves up to growth
they themselves don't become uptight
they open up i'll give you an
interesting example
you know every fruit has
seeds that allow for the procreation of
the fruit
every plant comes with a method it's
brilliant how this was made
that it should be able to generate
regenerate
and if you study fruits you'll see that
every fruit
based on the quality and the nature and
the climate
and the region where it grows has seeds
that are most conducive
to guarantee it's procreation
it's incredible the wisdom here and
there's always a method
how is this seed going to get replanted
sometimes it needs the wind
to scatter it to blow it away sometimes
the water
sometimes it has its own wings
its own airplanes its own parachutes you
know the dandelion
its own parachute that goes
there are seeds that naturally people
swallow and then they come out with the
excrement
which traditionally was done in the
earth and then it gets planted again
same is true animals who eat these
vegetables or fruits
these fruits an interesting thing is
about the peach the peach
you know the pit inside the peach it
contains the seeds that's why it's so
hard
because they didn't want you just to
destroy the pit
because then the seeds get destroyed so
those that pit in the middle of the
peach
is so powerful because it contains the
treasure
it contains the seed
now try cracking open that pit you can't
it is so tough you can't crack it open
but here's the miracle of nature you
take the see
this the pit of the peach and you put it
into the earth
and the earth has those elements those
nutrients that the pit
just opens up and the seeds emerge
and they're replanted and a new
peach tree can grow you take a hammer
say i'm gonna beat this pit up i'm gonna
crush it
good luck you can be a mighty guy take
the pit it's gonna win you
you put it in the earth it opens up
he says you're going to fight the midas
you're missing the point
but you put the midnightest into you put
him into the middles
vayas khalifa
become flexible they become open they're
not threatened
you didn't beat the primal drives by
negating their authenticity
no you introduced a
siphon to them
and that's the power of my sin to affect
middles
that's why mayhem could be a marimokum
for middles that's why mayhem
can develop midas into ibor into unika
into mayhem everything he discussed
earlier in the mime
why
and this is where healing comes from
because this takes the primal drives
back to their own source it takes them
deeper into themselves
it takes them back to their own iron and
whenever anything goes back to its own
eye
into its own source
gives you access to that iron
then it can be it can be healed
it can be recreated it can become
vulnerable
and let go and be reprogrammed so to
speak
so my primal middle is i'm not going to
change
this is my eye creates a link
between your primal middles between the
midis and the source of midas
because our middles come from hashem's
middays but hashem's middles himself
don't define his own infinity they're
just a channel for his infinity
so when i can align the middays with the
source of ainsaif
what now happens is
that my primal drives can have all the
comfort that they need
the validation that they need and
therefore the healing that they need
and the interplay between mayhem and
middles is not one in which michael
tries
to suppress or repress or undermine or
mitigate or compromise or crush middles
but rather it creates alignment between
the midis and the encyf
and therefore peace can reign and that's
the real function
of sekhal in a person's life
and that's why khalif said three things
to the people of israel
we can go up into the land we can
you say we can't i say we can
second allah neither we will ascend
third we are rashnu
it's that realization that you should
never ever be afraid of your primal
drives
because as long as you can introduce
moisture
and you have which is essentially
panemia's attic
ponemius attic as he said earlier in the
mime midis down here
are a mirror of razor and down and a
lower space is a mirror of tainog
that's optic that's the pyramid is
don't be afraid of your primal drives
you don't have to
battle it the miragulum said we're going
to battle it and we'll be killed in the
process
he said no yo you're not paralyzed
people feel all their emotions and they
get so scared of what they're feeling
and therefore either i have to
suppress them or repress them
unconsciously or run away from them or
space out
or i become overwhelmed where i become
desperate or i become depressed i feel
like a loser
don't worry your primal drives are not
here to kill you
we just need that taste of bittel we
need that taste of ain't scythe
we need to bring in the flavor of real
real infinity real one is where my eye
is not locked up in any form
it's really a channel of pure infinity
preverbal pre-sale even pre-media is
pre-creation
this is where my eye is not stuck in
anything
it's really open to the full grandeur of
infinite oneness
so don't be afraid of any emotion you
could contain it because the real you
is bitter which means it's a channel for
the ain't self which transcends any form
and any definition
and any label and any category and any
description
that's yahoo and then he says
first you have to know that i can stop
saying stop saying
i can't start saying i can
as somebody once said whether you
believe you can or you believe you can't
you're probably right so the first thing
you have to say
stop being terrified by your emotions
there's no emotion inside of you
that should terrify you that should
overwhelm you it's not comfortable
i have to deal with it i have to work it
through but don't
don't surrender to this attitude to this
mentality of defeat
yahoo i can
because the i is not an ego if the eyes
comes from ego
or the eye just comes from
rationalizations of course you will lose
that's what the miraculous said and
they're right but
ah if my eye is ready to embrace i
am you're good
you'll be great you'll rediscover
yourself
and the middles will find their ultimate
infinity
and then they're going to become
channels for infinity all your primal
drives really want
is to channel infinity into their in
this
into this world that's what they really
want so when you can align them with
their own source
there's recovery there's real recovery
this is deep stuff alain i live it then
means we're going to be able to go up
which represents
accessing the infinite light
availability
options but it's still ethereal it's
still above
your rash noise so then comes the third
step we're going to inherit the lights
shabbat says slapshoes when you yarsh in
something you inherit something it
becomes mine
it becomes now manifested in me chazelle
and shah tikkun yerish iris to tell you
that the lights of toyo which are
infinitely intense
can ultimately be integrated into the
world of tikkun
iris the toyota caleb the tickle so that
the lights of
chaos are integrated into the the
vessels of integration
into the vessels of tikkun tikkun means
the world of healing the world of
correction
the world of integration the world of
balance
this is toyo iris data represents my
primal midais
where there's i could be absolute toyo
absolute
chaos absolute apocalypse absolute
intensity
caleb of takonar the structures
can they ever make peace the miraculous
said they're never going to make peace
there's no way if you want to live in
the world of caleb
you're going to live in a compromised
mitigated fake
false world and if you want to live in
the world of iris to tell you
you're going to live in a very intense
and primal world
but it's not a world that can be
integrated
and kalaev and yahushua are saying
islam we can go up don't be afraid of
though going up don't be afraid of those
lights and then we irrationalize
we can make those lights ours so now my
primal drives of tikkun of tayu instead
of
making my life chaotic it becomes mine
i integrate it i know how to use it i
know how to allow it to
propel my life forward not overwhelm me
the purpose of creation was that hashem
wanted
to have a dear beth a dwelling place
in the lowest elements of reality
so the ultimate raise on the yatra of
creation was
that hashem says i want to live among
you i want to have a deer a home
a resident and in your home you're there
with your entire essence that's what a
home is a home is what do they say a
home is the place
that when you come there they have to
let you in and a home is hopefully the
place where you're not camouflaged you
don't have to wear masks in your home
pun intended the home is the place where
you are you
you're not there as a worker as an
employee as a professional
who's at home i am at home a home is a
place where a husband and a wife and
children want to be able to be fully
themselves
so when we say hashem wanted a deer
used to say
adira means that the atsumos is there
hashem in his pure so to speak infinite
state
so the ultimate purpose was the
synthesis is the integration between the
infinite and the finite
derivative
that's on the macrocosm how does that
begin in the microcosm that i should be
able to create that link that unity that
fusion
between the iris of tayo and the calem
of tikkun the iris of toyo represents
the midos the seven meters of tayo which
are ferocious
which are primal pre-verbal prima chava
pre-cycle even pre-middles of tikkun
these are the midnights in their full
intensity
and when you go into that place inside
of yourself
there's no structure there's no
organization there's no filters
whatsoever
it's very very powerful and it's very
very scary
and that's why the jews said okay we
can't go there let's just not go there
let's create a life let's create a
judaism that is much more contained
even if it's much more superficial
let's be more superficial and more
contained you know we'll smile to each
other
and we'll just get rid of that about
that space on a deeper level what it
means is
once your prime primal drives are
damaged
once there is trauma there that's it
and this is what the miragulum said no
although
we can allay naila we can go up all the
way we don't have to be afraid
and then furthermore we arrash we can
make them ours
your orders of toyo are not your enemies
they're not the enemies of kalim of
tikkun but the
but the prerequisite for that is
when you understand that the caleb of
tikkun are here
not to structure and kill the energy and
the creativity
but rather to allow the bittle to shine
because that's what
really is that's what sequel really is
it's to be able to introduce you to the
pure infinity
which is not afraid of anything and can
allow infinity to dwell in the finite
because bitter
is not fixed even in what looks like
infinity that's also not
bitter so now you can have the fusion of
the two and then you fulfill the
ultimate purpose of existence
which is that hashem in his essence
should dwell in this world in the lowest
elements of reality
this is this is the real mashiach
this is ghoula consciousness
question you spoke about intellectualism
being
open-minded does that mean i should be
open-minded about the foundations of
terror
well the foundations of terror are true
if you're struggling with questions
and you're sincerely trying to
understand then you should ask those
questions
judaism is not afraid of questions
because it has answers
there's no midst of it to introduce
questions into somebody who doesn't have
questions
there's no commandment to do that
because the foundations of terror are
true but if you're really struggling
with something
it doesn't help to silence your mind
and say oh i'm not allowed to ask i'm
not that i ask means
i have no answers
so are you saying that we have to
respect and acknowledge
our core wants yes
that's what we're learning that's part
of what we're saying yes
is the ego created by hashem with the
soul
or does it come naturally oh that's a
complex
question but generally speaking the ego
that we were talking about
is the ego that comes from brokenness
from insecurity from the fact
that i'm not a channel of infinity and
therefore i have to replace that void
by becoming stuck in a particular image
that will give me validation
next question if my eye is really a
channel for infinity
then what's left of it who is the one
who is transcending himself great
question
well when your eye is a channel of
infinity what's left of it is
the divine your eye
is a channel for hashem like the gemara
says
of somebody represents the one who sent
him
so when i'm your i am like you that's
the
i can do things as though you did them
the power of agency in halal is that i
become like you i become your
representative
so when i redefine myself as a sleek of
hashem
i am the manifestation of god in this
world and that's the truest i
that's the deepest die and that's the
eye that's infinite and it's invincible
and it's destructible it's the helicomi
and that's where individual so we learn
in the beginning of the mind when
somebody said
individuality is so powerful where's the
place where individuality becomes one
with everything
and that's the real truth that we're
learning here that medici
are very much about individuation
and do not try to destroy that and
they're not trying to call that immature
but if i can trace back my individuation
to my own source which is ain't safe so
then
i don't have to be threatened by my
individual my individuation
on the contrary my individuation can
become extremely
extremely power it can become extremely
powerful
channel for infinity
which part of the eye is the one that
receives reward in heaven
so the gemara in sanhedrin in chapter 11
discusses that
it's basically the soul and the body
together
question from texas is it ever possible
to have an emotional reaction
that comes from stuff we have
accumulated
like unhealthy thinking a reaction to a
negative experience
and be completely disconnected from our
primal middles or is it always connected
in other words is it possible that
sometimes our emotional reactions
are really not coming from our middles
they're coming from
stuff that are toxic stuff that we
accumulated
unhealthy thoughts that we have
developed from ourselves or from other
people
reactions to negative experiences and
they're really disconnected from us
completely or is it always connected
or is the mimer saying that if i am
having a strong reaction because of a
previous negative experience
it's actually not the experience i'm
reacting to but the experience is just a
trigger
for my primal drives wow
this is such a good question i have to
compliment you for your question
roboto what do you say about our
students here we have the best and the
brightest of america
beautiful question and the answer to
your question is
i think what we're learning is
the second option that you introduced
if i'm having a strong reaction because
of a previous negative experience
or certain ways of thinking that you can
call toxic
destructive negative
it's not only the experience i'm
reacting to
but the experience is triggering my
primal drives
but what's important to understand is
that my primal drives here
have been painted or traumatized
or channeled or manipulated or went
through a very intense experience
because so let's say this kid
who was bullied or god forbid abused or
molested or neglected
trauma with a capital t trauma with not
a capital t you speak about negative
experiences we go through in life
what that causes me is that yeah i'm in
a particular mode
and because i'm in a particular mode i'm
reacting to something that happens
and we call it an emotional memory
right i may be aware of what happened i
may not be aware of what happened i'm
just
experiencing a very intense emotion that
was triggered because of all of these
negative experiences that occurred in my
life that caused me to think certain
ways and process things certainly so
that's all true and you have to
acknowledge that
but i have to acknowledge something
deeper it's not detached from my middle
it's ultimately my primal drives
have been affected in a very powerful
way
in other words i my cycle
may be playing here a destructive role
because as a result of my negative
thinking i label
you as a lion imagine imagine
somebody tells me a lion
just came in to your house
i'm not going to continue giving this
class right
[Laughter]
i'm going to be pretty terrified i'm
laughing because it's a little you know
outlandish but i'm just
you know a lion is in the room but let's
say you see a lion in the room
if you see a lion in the room you have
to scream and you gotta run away
and you gotta i don't know what to do
if you have a gun use it
if you see a lion in the room but one
second
why are you so afraid of lions why are
you so afraid of lions
why don't you just say oh it's a lion
that's great there's a cat
there's a lion there's a puppy and the
answer is
because lions kill
so what i want to live
i want to live so now listen to me
the idea that there's a lion in the room
is coming from the fact that
unfortunately
my mind is traumatized
my brain is traumatized and therefore
even when there's no lion in the room i
am
screaming lying why am i it's like the
fire alarm
i once heard a therapist a psychiatrist
a neuroscientist explain
what trauma what trauma does to the
brain they said you remain stuck in your
amygdala the amygdala
is the reptilian brain the most basic
part of the brain
that basically is responsible for
survival
fight or flight and it's extremely alert
to danger
now when there's real danger it's
amazing but what happens if the fire
alarm in your house
never goes off so even when there's no
fire
it's still sounding so two o'clock in
the morning every single night
you hear a fire alarm and you're running
out of the house
the fire alarm is not a bad thing when
there's a lion in the room it's so
important
to have that alarm but when there's no
lion in the room
the amygdala is still screaming lying
lying fire
fire fire fire wool like the story wolf
wolf wolf
do you get what i'm saying so the idea
that i'm afraid of a lion and i'm
screaming is because of my meet this
it's because of my primal drive that's
not bad
that's good thank god
the challenge is that there has been a
disruption in the flow
and because of my experiences in life
these primal drives are being triggered
in such a powerful way but in the wrong
context
in the wrong situations because of wrong
information
because there's no seamlessness there's
no flow there's been an interruption
question if the ultimate goal is for
hashem to dwell in the lower worlds
how does personal reward in heaven come
into the picture
it's a good question but it's beyond
today's sheer
i don't understand if the purpose is for
god to be in the lower world how does
that connect to the mimer
great question and the answer is because
that's really what it's about
having god in the lower worlds means
allowing the full connection and
alignment
between my own and scythe
into my most basic lowest elements
back into my pettiness in other words my
emotions
my visceral reactions right
all of those which are coming post segal
post martial
can they all be aligned with aidsife
that's the work to allow that flow that
seamless flow
where the divine which means the core of
all
could find a home in my
brain and in my heart that's dirib in a
very personal way
very good questions i didn't even get to
the website questions because i was
doing the
the the zoom questions
the website we have another six
questions everybody could look at them
and i thank you very very much so this
this concludes the mimer it's hard for
me to say
concluding the mimer because i don't
know that such a minor you could easily
conclude
but this concludes at least one version
one rendition or one attempt of going
through this incredible minor of the
rabbi schlach 1955
based on a mimer of
1914 of the rebel ashab
a few weeks before the world war one
broke out
parasha's balloons tough ayan dallad
on that mimer this mimer is based i wish
you all a beautiful day a meaningful day
a wonderful shabbos
