Action, intent & regret brings positive new energy into your life - Igeres HaKodesh 14b- RC Dalfin

so we're learning [Music] um there's the fourth section in the Tanya letter 14 we're on page 240 so to recap this letter is we've already learned it in the past part of it at least in regard to what is accomplished through through our and CH uh I spoke about that quite a few times but now we're learning in the context of which the theme ised and the issue is as I mentioned yesterday that he starts off saying if you look at the first words of of the get is to arouse the old love my old love what's your old love my old the old love of that Al was alluding to is the love for is and to give money to so why does they have to be why does have to why does he have to all of a sudden arouse it again because people are people and the love dwindles that's why you have to keep the love always fresh and you have to arouse each other about it and and and talk about it and do things for it right P like it's in the real world so it's over here regarding s can't expect you know you know I see it you know over the 40 years in doing my work I see it just because yab balab that you know helped four years ago or three years ago and all of a sudden you want the same level of help uh it don't work that way if you don't talk to him again and you don't send him gifts again and you don't be Mar to him again the nature is that we slow down very seldom do you find a person who each time he deals with that issue he's just as excited I saw this actually with one of my teachers with only one out of all my teachers and Rees and this this this Khan each time he repeated something and many times he repeated things over and over and over in his teaching it was as though the fir it was the first time he was teaching it I I'm telling you you could ask anybody his thousands of students and people who heard him teach it's it's an amazing thing it's like you're not bored you're not bored in fact one of his closest students asked him that and he said what in other words if if if the item this case in this case to is fresh by you you it's you that's the idea we say tell has to be new every day but I learned it yesterday I said ashra yesterday but when you're you're permeated with the of this is the one of this chapter here that there is the the essence and if you touch the essence the essence is always fresh this explains how someone can be so far from from and all of a sudden they they're on fire because they touch the essence and the essence never was um diminished um was was never obliterated it's always there and if you go deep enough into the essence and and and the essence is is touched it's fire it's passion so the AL says but since we have a goof and and which we spoke about yes coming from SE and that's why I discussed yesterday that a dreamlike state has a virtue in which there is no impediments intellectually and therefore we see the truth and I told them yesterday you weren't here AER but I told them that it's so funny that I Was preparing the she with's be on on the she and um and he mentions an example how the the says every night says every night in when we retire go to sleep in it fetches life and the I believe explains what that means and takes it a step further so that he brought that as an example here in regarding what we're discussing yesterday and last night not two nights ago I had a dream with and he was in my dream a very Vivid dream with many more details it's just so funny cuz well and why cuz the next morning do I know why I'm just saying the next morning I I was teaching I taught yesterday this pic and I brought the mus for and the night before I dreamt so what I'm saying is that the the the ideas that we talk about and and Y there's an expression migan in them you know liing in that means you're immersed in them it's not just a uh happy hour oh we're happy well some people are leing in happy hour but you know if you're serious about your work and after work you go out for a drink you have happy hour okay it's not your lifestyle it's not your lifestyle this is very important just for a moment to digress the idea of not making gmas and lifestyle our lifestyle is T our lifesty MIT helping everything else okay from time to time you need a break you need a breather fine but don't make that your lifestyle when when gash and materialism becomes our lifestyle we're in trouble anyway going back to the text here I'm page 240 Dr says that in order for this for to be fresh you have to look at the energy that's in the world every year and he teaches aish as far as we're concerned it's brought in Caba but he puts it all together nicely that each year the Earth is different new and renewed and therefore you can't say but I am this way last year and the year before thank you but your energy the energy that's your counterpart in the spiritual Realms which we call ER there's ER there's ER there's the lower Earth on Earth and there's the superal earth the superal earth which is called that it's aim the land of lifeim being the true life is renewed every year so until until this point in this in the in the chapter talks about the importance and necessity for the the Earth of the year before to remove itself when an and then on R which is the day that Adam was created and what happened it says it says there was in the right Hashem took part of the body of of Adam and cut it out and from that he formed k so according to Caba this is the concept of malus it's called n this idea is identified is in Caba as n the sir means to cut out with a s so the idea is to malus is Cuts itself out from all the spheros and from that we have the I the formation the creation of the universe R so so the AL says that's when thees comes in but it only happens of it only happens when there iser and we plug in Theos we follow and we feel Theos and our prayers so the and are necessary for the for the our the spiritual counterpart to become renewed and we're not talking about us we aren't getting the equation and I explained yesterday that if you don't have this that there's a in the how do you expect to be inspired with a new energy y if if in other words it's impossible to have new inspiration and to have new energy and to be a new man a new person if the counterpart which belongs to you your Source isn't new if it's old you're going to be old you could do whatever it is it won't help you because the kak the energy is stale and old so therefore the first thing we have to do is get the Earth to be new and how do we do that through the and the look into the text Page 240 um it's about 10 lines in the bottom the second to the last word it's an acronym after the period and this is the reason why the PK says constantly The Eyes Of God your God B are upon the land of the question is why the eyes is why not the nose why not the ears why a answers look what he says the eyes are a nickname to draw down this level of therefore we call Wise people sages we call them the eyes of the congregation so why we call the eyes of the congregation why the eyes because the eyes represent so y if you want to see if someone is living with with B with Clarity with fresh Jewish life and Etc look into their eyes you know how everyone speaks about the Reb's eyes those eyes the truth is you look into someone's eyes you can tell whether they're a or a tip you can tell whether you can if you really focus on the eyes let's continue say the air of makes you smarter that's why you guys are all smart guys because you're living Ines so we see that the idea of the air of that itself is already powerful we see it has to do with it brings although it's constant in neveress that's not just one level from from from the past each year this energy of that's it's a greater new light each year for the light and and energy that's been renewed this again it's removed the following why why is it necessary for the energy to be removed out of R number one number two if it's removed how does the world exist rashash night without d's energy there's not the world can't exist here we say the is so I have a question how does the how does the world exist and the the first question I asked is what's the purpose why why must it be that way so briefly the explanation is and it's important for you to know this is that the the reason why the art has to be has to be removed is because Hashem is not willing to be king over us again I've had enough I gave you a year you didn't do what you're supposed to or even if you did I want to take Aus I want to I don't want to be I don't want to be the me so we say to Hashem listen think about it the think about it means the energy goes back to the source to hasem and we through our daving and K the next day we cause hasem a pleasure that he says you know what I want to be their King and therefore he he he G gives a new light to the source of Light which later helps us so it's the the Ty this is the explanation it's the pleasure that Hashem sees rashash night I'm sorry not rash rash morning through daving our and our blowing that hasem says I'm going to give them another year and not only I'm going to give them another year I'm going to give them another year with a energy and to answer the question how does the ex exist at night if the energy goes back to its source is the answer is it comes from the Mak it's the or it's the Inner Light the the salts and and and and and and pepper and Herring and the schach that's removed but there's still some crusts you know y you're you're stickle gab over there in in right you give a tick you a Kish and there is a cou and people finish the coule but there's always little bre little pieces on the side and sometimes you see someone grabbing the you know not grabbing but eating The Leftovers there's leftover energy the sh there's always leftover energy that's called Mak it's not the exciting it's not the real piece of cougle with all of its taste and and and delicious delic delicious but it's you know the the drgs but it's there there's something there rash like we live off that drag energy by the way that's why some people even don't sleep rash night there are some people it's like they have to guard the world the world shouldn't evaporate and tomorrow morning there's no world nothing's around anyway so the AL says that's why we say we say [Music] continuing the question we asked yesterday that the balat asked was why does it say from the beginning of the year God's eyes are upon AR Isel from the beginning of the year to the end of the year as though it has a limitation why does it say vo hashem's eyes are on the holy land of vir is always doesn't say that it says that's one qualifier that's another qualifier but the qualifier implies limitation that was his question so he answers that question now that's all he says and nothing more M the word word raous in this verse is missing an alive it's lacking an olive this alludes to please turn to page the next page it's because the energy that we're talking about the pus light has been removed that's the AL that's the AL that's why the AL is not there so the word ra is a mission because the energy of is gone until after and that's why by it's not time to play around and look around it's time to focus to listen and to focus on the message of after a while and during after there's a new energy that descends y that never existed in the world such a holy light superal light and this light this energy invests itself and hides itself again look at the emphasis first it conceals itself in what we call the superal life life of of of of EDI and then it rebounds kind of into the world below to give all of all of the world's life throughout the whole year but the AL is not going to say a very important thing no if there is a new energy that we bring down through why isn't it obvious and we should be you know flying high spiritually why is it only beer he says it's hidden the way to reveal it from its concealed State totally depends and I I always I love these words upcoming words but number one that's point one if you have a pen or a pencil you write them down make a point it depends number one on what we do act the action of the the lower ones two there's and their Merit but really their refinement and number three V and their Chua when B made chuva throughout the 10 days of repentance of of Chu so here the first thing is we see that the says three different there is the action the of the what are you doing during that that that's what good kindness what are you doing that's one way of drawing down the light the energy from to conceal to reveal state in our lives number two the refinement of it it's not just a matter of pushing a button you have to be refined in it and finally it has to have the element of chuva because after all it is during so these three these three points are a requisite for having the energy come from and if you don't have them and by the way he says V the implication is you need all three you can't say I'll just put filling on with Jews and I myself will be a um a boore no way or I'm not going to think about doing chuva doesn't you have to do all three action I would say the first thing is action the second thing refinement is is kavana the focus and intent while doing the action and number three the cha that you are sincerely doing chuva regretting your past and accepting the the future yes Yi my friend what what's up what do you want to say re re I don't know but from what I what we've learned for many years I would think that the second one would come before mean the cavana would be before the action because we need to prepare for doing we need to to to meditate and and then take action first be prepared in the cup good good question never thought about it you see this is why I've learned this many times and know I've never asked myself your question so right now I don't have an answer for you but I love the fact that you're thinking and now you made me think and I'm gonna think about it I can't promise you I'll find an answer but it's a good question that you have I'm being I really mean what I'm saying thank you I never never thought about your question it's a good question like what you're asking what you're saying is that should be before that's what you're saying right I hear you tomorrow I want to give a little sheer I want abouta okay and then from Thursday till a week in a week of Monday or Tuesday January 6th to 7th we will continue if I if I'm leaving out of town January 6th it'll be the
