First clean up your act, Torah study w love & awe - Tanya Igeres haTeshuva 8 - Rabbi Chaim Dalfin

continues his theme Here restoring the lower ha to the three letters why was it this disattached because of our transgressions said we have to find the right path the and the true path when we spoke about that what that means here again he speaks he mentions let's look after delving deeply into everything we in chapter 7 one can truly seek you see you want to be a Seeker not you want to you are a Seeker to be a aish that's a that's a word that we use in the community are you a mes are you a Seeker there's plenty people who are want to be Seekers or Seekers but not bems beem bems means look for what the objective truth is don't look for what your interpretation is okay coming from the depths of your heart with an abundance of Mercy erase my sins we ask Hashem please bestow upon us not just Mercy but an abundance of mercy and with that abundance of Mercy erase our sins Etc at that point you will um you will set per kind of permanently within your heart and TR and Truth the and the realization of the great pity Mercy for the godliness within your soul V and and that God is in Ghost in Exile through your sins Canal as we mentioned earlier is saying to truly feel the uh how how merci how the situation is really dire and God have real mercy on me with an abundant mercy and have mercy on yourself that I caused you God to be in in Gus it requires those are the words to seek with truth the depth of your heart okay so th those four words qualify what we're looking for here we're looking for don't tell the Torah what to do and seek its truth from your depth let it talk to you and listen to the message okay let's continue and this if we will do this this will arouse Mercy for the 13 attributes of Mercy we're coming up to it the month of el even though we're going to be doing you know just a month away from me month away from we know we have and we also know every day when we read in the we say yesterday in the in the fast day you two days ago so the the idea of the 13 PR attributes of Mercy where do they come from from the will the superal will of God Almighty that are alluded to in the in the um in the little uh Crown when a suur writes a yud there's a little crown that sticks up on top that little that little thing that is called K the edge of the yud the yud itself is you know like a a a a fatter head and a skinnier line going down a little bit going down a little that's a then there's the the edge of the Y so we say that the nas it alludes to the 13 attributes the 13 attributes are presented in the letter form not in the but in the and you know why that is H because the yud is already a form it's a letter it's a letter it has right has meaning but it's a letter the is not a letter it's it's it's it's it's an edge it's a crown it's it's a point in other words it's beyond letters it transcends letters transcends the norm you see this is the way adds to Caba in cabala is you would have this statement without explanation what I explain to you is from what I learned in from my teachers that's the addition what gives to Caba so I just you know it's always good to make it clear the the importance of Li that's not Caba yes what do you want to say yeah I just I just wondered based on what you just said I saw the Comm writes in not that about the phrase learning torma he writes that the means oos for the sake of the oio and I'm wondering if you could say that that the tag and the various lines that the S bring in are like a transitional point between the oos and the pre-creation so to speak uh well yes and and that and and that's that's what and that's and that's what he's alluding to here and when the kar when the commer writes he's talking about the letters themselves here we're going to the ab above the oos and that's that's that's my question right Point yeah yeah so I I would say that here is saying that thees that's his word here are alluded to in the is is is different is some is different than the V that it's alludes to the o o are already a g and it's believe me is is learning is a is a great thing but I would think that this is um a different concept but you know again uh I would have to see the context of the of the kar's entire p and also familiarize myself with a lot of this Torah style because the Kamar was a big baba you guys know that what what H heill was talking about this great Rabbi and he was very much into Caba he wrote Caba so this is from Caba what that that the is not the that's that's brought in Caba so of course he agrees to that the way he explains it here that we would have to see if if the Kamar understands it that way too which I I can't I don't know let's go on oh he says so clearly says that you and give they give affluence to the person much which which which transcends and is much greater than what comes from the that's very clear here in t that's why they have the ability to cleanse all stains as it says he carries and iniquity and vak he cleanses them how is he able to do that because he's greater than is greater and above the so when you damage yesterday Year you guys weren't some of you weren't on but yesterday sh was very important where he speaks about the the Damage Done to the youth K through different transgressions and he suggest and he says certain Mitzvah he enumerated four mitzvas corresponding to the four letters in and Etc right you'll you'll either listen or read yday year it's all there the end towards the end of chapter 7 so what he's saying here is that although we make a Pam we make a blemish damage to the OAS through our transgressions and this way that way that way when we reach the when we identify with then we draw down that atones for all of that that's you understand so that that's the power of that's why everyone says everyone right screams it out together why because we're alluding we're tapping into we're hoping to tap in to the energy that's trans that transcends sin and from there we we we seek and we and we get forgiveness so it's much it's it's more it's different than you know start wearing titas and you and and you and you atone for The Verve of the shameem um say kishma time so you atone for this or that you know that's a particular tick for a particular issue so meaning that you you must have that script it's like is right when I wasn't feeling well two weeks ago I wanted to take care flexion the doctor said to me it would be better to take a sender feere Center feere or some medicine which he said that it's better for the particular thing that he thought I had that's a it's with it's within the family but of of that particular antibiotic but it's more precise for that area in other words when it comes y to TI a correcting AAS on on on the simple level you need to know the prescription and if you take the wrong prescription you're not getting you're not getting that Chua it's the wrong it's the wrong prescri you're not getting healed very simple when it comes to the idea is kind of I don't have to you know uh identify the particular I just tap into the essence of God the the the and from there because it's a transcendental experience it's the Paradigm Shift you're a new person the Paradigm Shift means you're not the same person when we look for you know forgiveness and we do chuva tit forat you're the same person you are who you are you didn't change now you didn't change so you got to follow follow a script right but a when you when you become a different person Vis A this higher level of chuva abundance of chuva as he says then you're not the same person you're you're so if you're not the same person you didn't sin that's the point what he says here let's continue the and when you and when you identify with the there is no nourishment for the extru forces the negative who nurture we learned earlier in chapter 7 well who nurture and nourish and and N you know they they they shnar kind of from the lower hay they get sustenance from even The Godly lower hay because they live off K the parentheses this is the way this is very interesting because here he says this is the way you return the lower ha to its place because it was separated from you return it to reunite with the three letters and enough set for the one who understands so too here Below in the god soul of man no longer will sin separate us from God it says when you you cleanse yourself he he he cleanses those that return to him to wash them to wash them to wash it away and to cleanse them their souls from the soil dirty garments which is this refers to extran forces says man's good works precede him and the coming in the coming world and his uh sins encrust him so through this you wash away the dirt the crust since this Spirit now passes on and they become pure purified as the B the one who does this chuva can can can can return inity to ascend upward upward to source to attach to God in the most wondrous Union as the soul was initially United the ultimate prior to be to it to the soul being blown through the spirit through the mouth of God laid it to descend below now we're going on top of 196 and to enclose itself to invest itself into the body of man says using the analogy a person who blows with the with his mouth prior to the air the exhale the air is is is united with the soul it hasn't been given out so he says that level of unity will be accomplished through this chuv the AL calls this CH complete CH you know what that means that's great this Unity this returning this already is not this is the higher level of CH which comes only after you've mastered the lower level of he what is it is the that a person should study Bina this is the the son of Bina and which which is the higher level remember right there is V which is generally associated with ch and then there is which is associated with says when you learn and with true love and true off forem that's an experience of Chu love and it only can come after you've done Chu because if your feet are still if your feet if you're still stuck in the mud spiritually right through and you haven't mastered CH the chu is it's not Tru it's a fallacy because you can't learn if you really love God and you really have fear for God you clean up your act it's a fallacy to think and and it's a a big problem in the world and I see it as I travel people convince themselves they love someone they care for someone and meanwhile they're doing all kinds of okay if you really love someone and you really fear someone all you know you have offer someone you do what they want what what what's right and you don't do things that upset them if you think do things that upset them you don't really care for them you care for yourself but the way you make yourself feel good is by extending you're feeling good on them so that's not about you them it's about you that's what Al says here Tru love to talk about this higher level of chuva is once you've cleaned up your act and this is very important in all in all communities makes no difference this is a truism the difference is what we put an emphasis on but here in his Trea when he talks about these two levels of based on the the holy Z he's he's compelled to give you the whole picture and that's what he says let me just continue and finish and this is the virtue of Bali Chua over the Holy Rollers the sikim as we call them today the ffbs right this is the only what does it say the they draw upon thems the will of the heart more so and with more awe than the to come close to the king what a statement of the Holy Z and how is that it's only because of the true will see you back in Brooklyn Monday morning have a great shabas shabas shabas or next chabas uh what is it next shabas okay anyway have a great chabas take care nice L take care have a great J byebye byebye take care
