okay so we uh
we're we're we were on page 283
in middle of ice gimbal
um four lines from the bottom
which uh which begins with the words
mikomak and sarah leo is the
four last words on the line
and to bri to recap basically what we
learned yesterday
is that
are three levels
uh that we're talking about
one is which means revealed
hashem's wisdom number two is
there's the way the toyota is
concealed within hashem and by the way
hillel
um a
someone who might be joining our class
from chicago
uh he pointed out i guess he heard
yesterday
that the pos
is in dvaram the
i think in tawa in the ho there
it's capital lambda chapter 34 verse 32
and hashem is telling the eden don't
think that i forget
your your iniquities khan was imadi
it's hidden within me i remember it
it is sealed by my treasures
so that's that's
thank you yeah
so so that's the idea of tom comes we've
been speaking a lot about tom
comes and then
the third thing which is the highest
is that there is such a level of
hashem's ruts on his will
that there's no time for it at all not
even a tom comers tom commas means
there's a reason but it's hidden
this is what we've been talking about
until now
and towards the end of the show
yesterday that ever said
that specifically through hukim not
and not mishpatim that you experience
the real
mahalik and he quotes the possible
course
if you walk in it doesn't say
in teleko or in bimeshbot
and the reason is because hukim touches
the divine in a way that's greater than
adrus mushpaten because by aids
patem the relationship is to the reason
whereas in hukim the relationship is to
the essence because there is no
reason so the only reason the only
reason why you're doing it is because
hashem said so
so the connection is deeper and then he
says
and that makes you tale a mahalak
and then he added this we discussed
towards the end of this year
through the nephesha bombings that you
need to take the nepheshobamines and
involve the nefesh obamas
in the process and like like hey they
answered
to his question not to squash the nephew
but to to incorporate it
first by subjugating it and ultimately
by
transforming it and these two things are
called in the terminology of khabar
siddhas
is kaffir kaffir
and the second word is
kafka means to subjugate the control
and his means to transform to convert
over
so ultimately we want the his experience
but it's
a much harder one and one needs to be
well prepared better prepared for it and
initially we don't engage in that
avoidable because it's too difficult so
the the initial thing is to do
is kaffir let's continue now as he
completes his idea finishes his idea
four lines from the bottom two
eighty-three
valdez he says
i'm sorry we call market nevertheless
leo is
this is also very interesting and
important line
nevertheless there must be
a whenever you see a siddhis hillel
the words not whenever but
many times most times it refers to
something coming from above to below
because when we talk about the
below to above experience we call that
hello la lot
aliyah that means you're here
we're here and we're elevating ourselves
up that's
in general the the the idea
of davening when we darven
what what what state of being is one
when they darwin or should be
the state of being is that i'm lacking
something i need something i want
something
and i'm going to work towards getting
that
so the petitioner
the governor is mata
is below how are you
and and
he seeks to find something that's above
himself that we call
hallo milimato le milo
to elevate oneself from below to above
when we say
we're talking about drawing down where
are you drawing down
my love from above la mata to us below
and and and these id words and ideas
are rampant throughout hasidis in a way
without this
you don't have the basic understanding
because it is a certain it's a certain
approach
and not i'm saying with the way this
looks
at versus torah and both are necessary
both are true
but the orientation is a very different
orientation
here he says now
yes it just says it's interesting what
you're saying because
you're it's making me think so much
about how wise
learning you know like the whole
i'll say there before you get to darwin
before i've
preparation is uh preparing yourself to
i'm just listening to what you're saying
it just it's it's reminding me of the
whole
seder of how one would prepare
themselves and
make to try to get yourself
ramped up to be able to appreciate
what you're saying what what you're what
you're bringing out right
right
but i would say moshe that all of that
preparation
is part of the tila process
even the learning let's say before
davening
if it's orientation is i should dive in
better so that's not
it's learning but the purpose of that
learning is
i want to i want to feel more davening i
want it to be more meaningful
so it's you that's that's seeking to
find that through your learning
so what and mick for two it's it's a
it's another
uh preparation for a better davening
so the holy orientation of of the
morning experience i would classify
in the category of mel mata la milo
as generally speaking when we talk about
torah learning we're talking about
sitting down for the sake of learning
without preparation for davening without
prep just learning hashem's tata because
it's hashem's title
here he says good morning boros nice to
see you
here he says
it's fascinating words and need to be
really understood
we're talking about we're talking about
taking the nepheshabamis and
incorporating it
into the experience of of of
the rabbit says as as important as that
is you have to know one thing
you have to know that simultaneously you
have to also draw down
something that's way beyond what you
could do
and that's what we call the mill mila
there is a talk that that ever gave and
this was brought to my attention by
someone
in shul who was a baltruther
and we was he was we were sitting and
talking and he says to me
you know he learned to see her i forget
what he had now so please forgive me but
he said the reb explains there that
as much as we need soldiers we need a
general
without a general and a leader the
soldiers don't know what to do
and it ever brings out in that sichu
that
we jews as bali chuva all of us
in the position of baltruva need to
recognize that as much as baal chuva
is so great until uh to the extent that
the gomorrah
says
the place where beltruva stands the
complete righteous cannot stand there
so therefore the beltruvas the notion
and movement an idea has one up and a
very significant one up
on the tsadiki nevertheless you need to
tadikim to guide the balchuviz to tell
him how to be belchuvas
and the rabbit says that's what motion
albania was
aaron aaron was
koyan gurdle he lit them in the era he
lit the heart
of every jew right he lit the candelabra
so iron is called in zoyard
the uh you know when you go to the hoop
or someone holds you
under and walks you to the cuppa and you
just recalled that
which is the color the matron
right that's the sushi vina de matanesa
there is also
venus the undefeated the one who walks
the
melech or the the cousin the groom to
the hopper
what's the difference both are walking
the the person to the ho to the hopa
the difference is a very different
orientation
the shusa vina de matrionisa is coming
from the perspective
of the of the bride which is the macabre
the recipient
right so until mashiach comes we'll have
asia's higher la terres bayla as we say
friday night
but prima the
macabre receives
from the mashpia the bride receives from
the groom
and the bride is uh scared in a way
what is this groom gonna gonna do to me
who is this groom
am i going to submit to this groom
so she gets all frazzled so she needs an
interference
she needs someone to say it will be fine
it will be fine
come let me walk you to the hooper
spiritually is the same thing to receive
an energy as fascinating and as
good as it is it's the unknown
and i'm just writing about this as well
anything that's unknown
causes fear i recall when i came to
when when we were eddie marin county and
we wanted to open the school
you know not just in a house but in show
the neighborhood went bunkers
and they came up with all kinds of lies
that we have hundreds of people and we
have hundreds of cars
you know if we had a minion we were
thankful and very few people came with
cars and those that came with cars
parked a few blocks away
the fear the fear was tremendous because
the of the unknown
who are these people with beards without
beards yamakis you know it's 90 degrees
everyone's in shorts
and half undressed and they're walking
around like it's a cloudy day and a
rainy day
you know it's like what's going on here
people are fearful
very fearful the kala
the the bride is fearful
of the mashpia because she doesn't uh
she's not used to
this mashbiya or the the overall idea of
hashball
she's used to being a recipient used to
being
you know accepting
and all of a sudden and all of a sudden
but she accepts things that she cuts
she's comfortable with
so that's why we have ashu shavina an
undefeated to make her more comfortable
in the receiving end so the question now
is
why do we need a sushi vena de malka
why does the mash beer need an
undefeated
he's macho he's the he's the mashbiya
he's giving he's influencing
so it's explained in the holy spirit
that the mashpiya himself
is also fearful he's fearful
of not assessing properly the recipient
and maybe he's going to give too much or
maybe too little
so he gets frazzled as well and he
doesn't want to come to the cupboard
maybe it's better i cancelled the
agreement and back out
but we sent out invitations and
everyone's coming and everyone's waiting
i don't care what everyone's doing if
i'm giving a spa
if i'm giving influence it has to be the
right influence otherwise
it's wasted and if it's wasted it's not
wanted by a kurdish borough
so what does hashem do he says i'll give
you a mush
vina as well i'll give you an undefeated
someone to walk you
to calm you and to say it's going to be
all right
now why do i say this because
in the relationship between beneath roe
and ako
and between spouses and between people
and what we're learning here about
between the nephesha bombings and the
nether shall they kiss
on one hand the nepheshobamic needs to
know
that the nephew surely kiss has to know
that unless you incorporate the
nepheshabami's
you might be flying high but you are
on your own you're not you you really
haven't scored
the points because you're carrying the
football to the end zone
but meanwhile the penalty was called as
you can run to the end zone it's
meaningless
if the entire team doesn't run with you
towards the end zone
then because of a penalty so they're all
they all sold the penalty marker and
they're all standing back
and you're running run where you want
but
it it doesn't count
so the nether shall the keys understands
that if he runs and he's always running
to hashem
if he doesn't take along the never
shabbat is
it's meaningless because why did he come
into the world
to take the nephesh our bombers along
for the ride otherwise he could have
stayed in heaven
and have and have a merry old good time
with the angels and the shamans
and you know and with the boys drink
with the boys
in heaven he comes here because here on
earth
he takes along this thing that's
antagonistic to what it
to god and he makes of it a godly being
a holy being
and all of a sudden he becomes
the nephesh obamish becomes also excited
about hashem
and on the contrary it's the passion of
the bombings that the nephilim
didn't have it so now that efficiently
gives his desire for god
is twice as strong because it has the
passion right that's what we've been
learning
what about the nephesh obama's the
nephew obama's needs are never shall the
kids because it needs a guide
that's what i was saying the belchuva
needs a guide
and i say all of this because here we're
learning this line that seems to be
enigmatic
we call them up claim it says look into
a 283
fourth line from the bottom
although the nephilim understands it has
to take the nebuchadnezzar there still
needs to be a
coming down of influence
of chaos of toyo for the madrigal
you need normal guidance
the the power of passion and excitement
and thrill
is good and healthy only if it has
a normal guide guiding it
so a normal guide says you know in your
situation
doing something outrageous and wild in a
holy way
is appropriate because you need a
shake-up
you've been too stable you're too normal
you got to break the routine
so what i want of you is to drive out to
ashkelon
get on a boat stay up all night
and say kill him all night that's really
weird but that will break your routine
or
maybe your teen is sleeping a normal
night
and not you know having cat naps and
being
you know tired all day depending on the
situation
the guide gives you the right situation
the masjid
in this case it's called
and that is why the nephesh obamas
who was the power of passion baroque
and and and is now involved in in
godliness and holiness
and wants to get passionate without the
guidance
of the nephesh elections which is which
is from
which is the from the world of
correction and normalcy
we we have
we have a mess up so that's why
i'm comparing it just like the mother
says that the place of
balichuvitz and he can't be there
nevertheless we know without sadhikim
the balichuva wouldn't know what to do
so that sadiq need to give guide
guidance to the bali trooper
so to hear the nefesh really kiss
although it realizes the power of the
neferja bomb is the power of passion
it needs to give it guidance when to use
its passion
let's continue valderja
said he
a person had to sacrifice a carbon
[Music]
after all what right do we have to shake
the curtain
right could you imagine the the the the
ox will say
hey guy you put yourself here and get
slaughtered what are you slaughtering me
for
so that what is it what's the
explanation that the slaughtering is in
aliyah
and the aliyah is something that was why
is the ali why is it aliyah
because man is slaughtering and the the
species of and domain of man
right domin samaya hai medabar
the madaba
just as like when the high eats the
grass
the grass receives and aaliyah through
the high the animal eating the grass
and just as the grass grows grows on the
soil
so the soil receives an alley
by allowing grass to grow on its soil
so too when the high submits to the
madaba and the madabar slaughters it
with nakoshi shrita way
then the khai receives an aliyah that's
a concept in kabbalah citizens you've
heard it many times
and important to understand the whole
idea of eating and food and shifting and
all that
although the aliyah is through
sacrificing
the the animal
and he quotes the zoya
[Music]
the secret of a sacrifice oiler
ascends adoraza until the secret
the insult of the the infinite god
in other words carbonus the activity of
carbonace
touches the godhead
when it says
hashem says i want you to bring a carbon
because it makes what
it makes a pleasant odor the zoya
hakkadu
says
the secret of what you do when you bring
the carbon
oil it attaches it ascends it connects
to the secret of the ain't self of the
infinite god
the the infinity of hashem there is a
direct link between carbonaries
and experiencing ain't self
so so seemingly
the aliyah process which is moshe the
daviding process
is seemingly the highest form
and we're saying here that it's not
enough we need to have what
also not just the aliyah
we need the drawing down
[Music]
and nevertheless next page top of 284
there needs to be that many
you know there's all kinds of that
unless you're mocked is the carbon
you say this animal in my
group of animals i want it to be
used as the carpet and i'm going to
bring it to the base of mikdash
and that's called hekdish once you've
done that if you change your mind
there's a homosexual called tomorrow
based
sorry chap once you've made an animal
kadosh
it is kedusha and you can't exchange it
right is that same thing for tsudaka as
well right if you put aside
today you didn't give it yet but you put
it aside you're not gonna touch that
money even if it's
uh i don't you need it attack this right
um
[Music]
i i i can't say that how logically
you're not allowed to do that i have to
check
yeah you know your question is a very
specific question and i believe that
i'll try to check and give you an answer
i mean in in spirit you're right yo you
understand
in spirit you're right
whether it's a violation of
tadaka i'm not sure see these things
this is the way
you know you have to analyze it from all
sides so
anyway but with a carbon there is that
concept
so who who is the one
that makes the carbon holy it's man
and who is the one that brings the
carbon not the israel
the coin shaco's open you see you and
madrid is the ticket
there is the animal being shifted which
is the aliyah
which is the nephilims
but who is the one to decide what animal
to prepare the animal
and who is the one to actually do the
hakrova the
bring the carbon it's the cayenne
that is analogous to the idea of
the ceo rodriguez which you learned
earlier
the help that we get the guidance
from tikkun so if one decides i want to
bring a carb
but the coin doesn't bring your carbon
on the altar your carbon has not been
brought
but i but i dedicate i dedicated the
carbon you could dedicate it but you
need a coin
and if the calling is not interested for
whatever reason or things that's invalid
the behavior is invalid whatever we have
a problem
so what we see is here a tremendous
insight
the insight is that together with the
importance of bringing the carbon
that needs to be the cohen
who substantiates the bringing of the
carbon
and the cohen it represents the guidance
this is all to prove the same
point that the nepheshabamis
needs the necessary kids to give it the
approval and the guidance
he looks so too when we talk about going
walking in the ways of hashem
[Music]
why they have taken to therefore
[Music]
although this is through correcting the
animal drive mikhail mukher nevertheless
so now he introduces another interesting
insight
who and and what
gives us direction what is the guidance
that the nephesh bomb is is doing it the
right way is through mitzvos
if the nephesh obama decides
i want to do so-and-so and i'm going to
do with the passion
and all of that but it's not in
accordance with the mitzvos it's either
of the vader transgression and if not
it's neutral
but it's not a mitzvah and this is also
an important point
because many times people are very well
intended you know and they have good
intentions and it's all fine
but it's not a mitzvah so
if i logically you're not allowed to go
jogging before dominic i'm saying if
and you say you want to dive in better
and your jogging helps you
and you're rough pascals you're not
allowed to
you have violated what the love said
and if you haven't violated you're doing
something neutral
which is questionable whether it's
allowed to be done before governing i'm
just giving an example
i'm not posting just just throwing out
an idea
you're well intended and your purpose is
to dive in so you feel fresh
but the question is whether you're
according to you're allowed to do that
so if you need it for your health and
you and you and you and the love
come to an understanding that it's
really for your health and without it
you
you you're not a mention you feel ugly
and then disgusting and you can't daven
then
you know of course then it needs to be
done
but but because with the approval of
thereof
so what we see is that you need to see
you are the lemila
the ceo have taken so that's why he says
here through mitzvahs
in other words if the love says yes
i'll give you another example that sam
daughter um
no the altar of his daughter i think um
wasn't well and she didn't want to eat
before davening said
and i think one of the said
you know it's better to eat
for davening than to daven for eating
if you're dominant what moshe
yes
i didn't hear you what say it again
i think he said i think the lush one was
better to eat in order to thousand
right then in order to eat
the same idea which means
if you if you're diving the whole time
you're thinking about what's for
breakfast you haven't done
maybe you said the words but you really
didn't doubt die
whereas if you need the eating to help
your daughter
then you've done because the eating is
helping you and again there
you know this has to be discussed with a
with a must
uh you know
so okay let's go further
so therefore he says here but who are
you today mitzvahs
this is through the mistress
[Music]
it is plural
you know if you ask someone in yeshiva
why is it
called thai because there are many
mitzvahs
and that's also true well that's true
but there's also the interpretation as
the rebbe says here
that the word hookah has another meaning
besides statutes
what other meaning does the word have
hakika
to engrave
as it says
with these type of law of statutes
i have engraved the heaven and the earth
in the makeup of the heaven and the
earth
the yesh name meaning there are two
types of hakika of engraving listen to
this
outside external engraving
and inside internal engraving get ready
for this
it's a nice concept
take for example when you make a vessel
you make a kali
although the primary thing is the inside
of the vessel
we call that the base kibble the
recipient part of the
of the vessel nevertheless
you have to engrave it also from the
outside
the vehicle you can't have a good kaylee
if it's messed up from the outside and
only good from the inside
you need both well came by
benefit so that's the moral the the
muscle
and the the parable the example so too
and the nymphs in the moral
when it comes to the soul the nephesh
there has to be two types of engraving
you have to engrave your soul
from the outside the who is it
and that is the idea of the necesito
separation
what does that mean let's see what it
means
[Music]
you know that double
two faces were created together
male and female were attached to each
other
but back to back
i always say in my russia for shabbat
brothers when a master talk
my popular dress is god created male and
female back to back
the purpose of the husson and kala going
on the hoop is to turn around and to be
front to front with each other
back to back means no communication
i'm doing this she's doing that we're in
two different worlds
we're sitting at a dinner table with our
smartphones and she's doing this and i'm
doing this
where are you the purpose is you have to
be front to front
drop your smartphones communicate talk
to each other
when something bothers you remember that
the rest of your life
a healthy marriage requires
communication
but when hashem created the world it was
do parasufim
back to back back to back not front to
front
what did he what took place nasira
they separated them enough with back to
back
separate your individuals and then turn
around and talk to each other
let's continue
it's a concept in kabbalah which means
that from the back to back spiritual
experience there can be negativity that
comes forth
simply speaking continue
acting back to back and you'll end up
with a lot of problems
and the kassani and the extraneous
forces will get
energy they suck off the lush and heart
of the gossip
you know he and she oh they're always
bickering
they're back to back so who benefits the
clipper out there
the negative forces you see i told you
so why'd you make men and woman
they're always fighting with each other
they don't know how to communicate
back-to-back required
nasirus separation turning around face
to face to face
so and and the reason is because you
don't want to have negative energy
in which the negative force sucks off
and nurtures from
let's continue
initially they were they were
separated so there shouldn't be a
nourishment for each other
nations
is the idea of engraving the vessel from
the outside
engraving your soul will
the first thing you need to do is you
need to correct the external part of
your being
there shouldn't be a a grasping a
nurturing
to the negative side from that
experience
surrounding the wicked as they go
the wicked are in a way savage
they surround they nurture and benefit
from
this inappropriate activity known as
back to back
sorry sorry he has a different
interpretation i i didn't explain it
well
he's saying just the opposite so we're
going to show you
he's not talking about the wiki he's
saying that the kedusha
surrounds the roshoyan
sorry surrounding the kedusha is
clipper which is no good and he says
this is the lowest level of kedusha
in which clipper can have a holding on
to
uh
slum if it has adhesions it's strafe
what do the
adhesions do they block they're little
things that block
and you know from someone who had uh
what's called diverticulitis it's a
stomach condition
but i haven't had in a while should
never have it again
but it's so painful and what is it that
there's adhesions on the colon
and and it doesn't let the food
digest so it becomes infected and it's
very painful
so i understand what he's saying here
about the circus the adhesions
are a blockage the food doesn't process
and digest properly
so it becomes an affection so you're in
great pain
i.e what's called the medical terms
diverticulated
lioness of diverticulotis
have you ever heard of that guys
you should never know about it anyway
but the point is that the circus
right so he says here that
geyva ego is a blockage
being conceit and hardy is a blockage
and you need an outer
what he calls external
engraving to get rid of to cut that away
before you can start processing your
character and getting inside and really
refining yourself you have to rid
yourself
of the ugly outside okay
so again a kaley a vessel
in order for it to appreciate its beauty
inside
you need the outside i i would think
moshe probably
after he thinks about it he can give us
an example because
in order to in order to accomplish
that that the that the uh the the art
which is the inside be beautiful you
need to have the right quill and the
right this and the right ink and the
right
you need the external issues
before you could do the internal issues
i have that in writing too
i first set up the framework that's the
way i write i set up a framework
i do make a index a table of contents
sorry a cut table of contents and i work
my way down
it gives me a structure of what i want
to say
and then i start inserting footnotes
and editing you know i mean other
writers might be different but i find
that this process
so it's really external it's not really
the the content
the juice the gravy of the
of the of the uh of the
work right that that comes later
kevin i think we'll stop here is it a
seventh and everyone have a great day
and a great job as shoppers with
thomas and we will learn and next week
we'll also have
a bring them for gimbal thomas if it's
hashem so take care
and we'll talk more everything should go
well for your father
i mean yeah take care good job
everyone bye bye bye
