learned time yet we're in middle of
chapter 21 we're holding
um we're holding actually about 10 to 12
lines down from the beginning of the
chapter 21 a political follow on page 52
and the altered episode over here that
when we talk about God's word God's
Debra Maisha he or let there be light
God spoke right
said one shouldn't make a mistake and
think that the word of man and the word
of God are similar why aren't they
similar because by by man when a person
speaks Abram
the speech leaves his mouth and becomes
independent right when you hear me speak
you hear me speak you're not
seeing in my speech
my thought and my soul even though it
comes from my thought it comes from my
soul you hear an independent word
independent sentence independent speech
by Hashem
God forbid to say this Independence
given to speech because if you say that
then you're separating and this is
nakuda of the chapter you're separating
Unity when we talk about God being
united with the world Hashem
we need to say that even as God created
the world and as the world is today
Maisha the psalm comes out and the moon
comes and everything else right so you
would say it's it's nature it's it's
independent so so what what are we learn
and tell it up no that even in in so
when and when Hashem says let there be
life
the the ten utterances within the
utterances there is God
like Dr Reba says later in Tanya Maisha
it's the
more it's like the Sun Ray
that's Inc included in the illuminary
before the sun comes out even when the
sun comes out but by so sound comes out
here it's it's the sun's coming up here
now right you guys I'm sure it's sunny
there right so the sun what's the word
the word is no it's only a ray of the
Sun
but by Hashem it's it the word that
comes out is always within him therefore
there's no separation there's no
Independence yes
to what we discussed about tinsel that's
right it's going to get to that he's
going to get to that wait good you're on
the right track
so
so if that's the case the altar up his
question is so what is the comparison
between Deboer of a human and deeper of
God if there is no comparison so the
altareba said at the the last point that
we made yesterday before we ended this
year is that there's another aspect of
Deborah in which there is a similarity
between us and God and that is the idea
of Revelation
you see rev not Independence but
Revelation just as when I speak I'm
revealing to you what's in my heart I
revealing to what I think about and I'm
giving it out right I'm revealing it
right deeper is a revelation of makshava
right so too When God Says ye he or he's
revealing himself from a state of
thought I.E in himself to a state where
everyone can hear it let there be light
and in that way there is a similarity
between the
there is some similarity between the the
speech of the human and the speech of
god let's look inside them
um
the after the period it's six lines in
the bottom after the words
foreign
[Applause]
[Music]
take for example
speech and thought of man but I don't
because
while the speech and the thought that
backs the speech are within the brain
and the
intellectual order within the desire of
the
hearts
before it ascends from the heart to the
brain the horrible to think about it
which at that time it forms letters
then
at that time the letters of thought and
speech were is
this this this uh
desire of the heart was only in a state
of potentiality because it will still be
mashava and Deborah
um
and it was it was United in the with the
ultimate Union
which is the wisdom intellect was in the
brain
and the desire and yearning within the
heart
so this is the analogy now comes the
moral called
in the immoral is the Buddhism
the speech and the Throne of God is
united
with the ultimate Union of unity
the word is
even after God's word speech and word
came out yotset he said May there be
light Ella came out who act into the
action the actuality the previous Island
was by creating all the world's
commercials
it's like it was reformed creation
equal in front of his brother there's no
difference in God to post-creation to
prior to Creation
the difference is only to usam
who receive the Vitality the penis the
body is water from God's speech but
because
when it comes out into actuality but the
Asylum is by creating the worlds of
Islam to create them to enliven them
like they established me lower through
the chain of uh Chain Reaction called
cause and effect if you read this
here's the words
in other words to who does it make a
difference Maisha who
that that pre and post creation to us to
us
why because the symptom makes the
difference
the contraction of God's light from
pre-creation state to post-creation is a
difference Recreation God's energy and
light was not felt and heard and sensed
and post-creation it is says the
outdated right so that's the difference
is only to the macabling to us but who
from his perspective there's no
difference before or after creation
actually you clear brilliant vocabulary
the contraction of the light makes it
possible for us to receive his light and
not to become annulled at all completely
The Horizon two main Prince Hester upon
him
all the
contractions have one have a certain
aspect which is the concealment of God's
face God's energy
which comes through through his speech
is
makes it that it shouldn't reveal itself
in an abundant way of Revelation
in a way
that the receivers us below won't be
able to receive it therefore the light
and energy is minimized
therefore to us it appears that the
energy of God's speech
it feels as though it's an independent
energy separate from God
an action name something money is butter
it's independent but it it came from God
but it's independent because
just like the the speech of man coming
from the soul the Elton that was saying
much
saying he will everyone else saying very
clearly that it it feels it feels like
when God says he or it's it goes out let
there be light and now the light those
words are independent but the truth is
it's not independent because only the
only reason it feels independent is to
us because of the Simpson
God made it simple so if he himself
making Simpson he is in the Simpson
ah does he continues his thoughts
but compared to Hashem there is no
symptoms
there's nothing that conceals and hides
God
foreign
darkness is like light there's no
difference
some will say my shirt I Hashem is not
there you know why because it's a dark
place it's a bad place it's no good
wrong
this was the is one of the arguments
about today but
positions of the out today but
that Simpson
the words and that we use are synthesis
the symptom the contraction is not
literal
when we say Simpson
right you could say motion means
literally God contracted himself he's
not here
his infinite life right his Infinity is
too much for us to handle so he
contracted it and and put it aside and
it's not here now tareba teaches in in
the second section of Tanya which I
believe you're learning with uh
that Simpson like him shooting
symptom is not in the literal sense
where God actually contracted himself
and is not here he is here
the pre it's not felt
we don't feel it
but to say that the in the infinite
Maisha you hear to say that there ain't
self of God the Infinity of God is not
here God forbid to say that
it's like saying I'm in a relationship
but I'm only half here you're not in a
relationship you only have feared what
are you a fool you're not here
you're elsewhere
if you're here you're here fully
sometimes you don't express that full
connection and more than sometimes and
that's when you know we have to deal
with the issues
but
you know years ago I helped someone who
needed a back operation
and it was an issue he didn't have the
insurance and I got I got I got him I
got him on the insurance that I was
using
I didn't ask questions
my point is I'm not saying this because
I did it what I'm saying is if you're
connected to someone and if you really
want someone and you like someone and
you want then you're there
and if you're there you get it done
the the idea is I can't get it done
doesn't exist for yourself would you say
that for yourself and your own kids and
your own wife your own Community you say
that no for them you go to the the
further smile for someone else I tried
but I couldn't do it
so that the same thing over here when we
talk about Hashem creating the world via
Simpson Hashem is fully here
if Hashem is not fully here and that
Simpson made an impact on God where his
Infinity is contracted and doesn't have
any connection to us bye-bye Charlie
then then the world is a figment of our
imagination
this is a figment of God's imagination
and it's all baloney and do whatever you
want
and yeah there are people who live that
way
at a 94 years old they found someone
living in a dune in Cape Cod yesterday
the man is living there for 70 80 years
in a dune
out in Cape Cod
he thought he would die there well guess
what
the government needs the property and
they're affecting you from the stone
what's the point you can't hide
you can only hide a certain amount of
time
but it'll come back to hit you so just
do it straight to begin with let's
continue
so since Darkness to Hashem is like
light
darkness is won't be Darkness for you
God the government
and the reason is because the whole
concept of of Contracting of
contractions on God's infinity and the
garments metaphorically speaking on God
are not governed
I'm not a separate item from God is
a snail
a snail's shell is from the snail itself
right you know right
it's not the snaily is created in a way
that it has a cover
that's the point over here that that
the concealment the contraction on God
is from God
it's not someone else put a contraction
on God
that's an oxymoron that's not that he
made a contraction himself so if he made
a contraction then he's there
so that's the most
that the the the cover of the snail is
like it is the Garment is from itself
too much gossip as it says yes
right we say this Yom Kippur
Hashem
seven times and some people are yelling
and crying and dancing and Hashem what
are you saying
someone what are you saying
I've run Hashem at the end of your
keeper by Nila what are we saying
Hashem is God what we're saying is that
the youth came the name of God which is
Transcendence my the infinite name
of God
that same God is nature Elohim equals
the nature the dematra is 86.
so the god that's youth came that's
transcendental
Kim it's the same God in nature
therefore
in in regard to God before God came
everything is like North Carolina
considered like nothing in actuality
so we finish this chapter and what the
of the Pedic is that there is no
separation between God's word and God
that Simpson is not a separation
although necessary to create a finite
world as you alluded to earlier but one
must know that this is the reality and
what does this have to do or moisture
with the bang the knee so it has to do
with the pain in the end the
continuation of the chapters in Tanya
that you potential man moisha Myers
grew up in Toronto and he asked himself
a question where is Hashem today
[Music]
the answer is in you in US
in debris in the creation
I sometimes there's a a curveball and
and a fastball and and a sinker and all
kinds of pictures up and down right and
left
it's all from him
there's nothing in the world that's not
for the ability the Apes the God
Almighty knows everything and knows
everyone and has a reason that we do not
know most of the times and guess what
it's not relevant to know
because if you know too much
you become a heretic
at the same time to know nothing you're
a fool
you need to study and you need to think
and you need to have a Muna and to have
one second haverim good friends
and you did them and if I bring together
and you could you should know
when people sit together and they put
their hand around each other and they
give each other a hug I'm just saying
that goes so far you can't imagine
my son-in-law in Tel Aviv and Malaysia's
daughter was there and she if she saw
what's going on there it's a revolution
you know what their strength is
they're warmth that's their strength
naturally they have a nice big building
how do they get there
it right people have funding it right
helping because of the hug
because of the show of malaikum
because of bringing people together
and and you know there's too much today
of the box it has to be this way has to
be that way just relax just relax just
the other day someone said something to
me and I said there's a rabbi here you
check with the rabbi you know just relax
if the Rabbi says it's okay Titus says
that he has the permission to say it's
okay and just you don't want it you
don't like it
knows you know yes unless you want to
say something
I can't hear you you're on mute are you
sure you're on mute
sorry about that yeah so Hashem
determines everything I learned with a
hasid who's always trying to drill into
my head everything's from Hashem much
everything you know and it's sinking in
but the thing is with Hira it's the
contradiction awareness but herea begin
and end and there's this time you talk
about this at some point maybe you've
already covered it no I didn't cover it
yet it's
it's actually later in chapter 48 and
49.
you'll choose a vanilla or chocolate ice
cream obviously and we make moral
decisions which are more important shall
I steal or not steal
um but if Hashem knows everything in
advance what we're going to do what's
going to happen so is he really our
destiny is the trip right from from
birth to death we know Hashem determines
our life but we have some choices along
the way
and so there is but really it seems very
very limited no why do you say it seems
very limited you we do not know what God
knows
so does it really make a difference what
God knows is if we don't know it not no
I have no idea I have no idea what's
going to be later in the day so thank
you very much God knows it so God knows
it from where I'm coming from I know
zero
so I have real free will
so much that's the answer in a nutshell
it needs a lot more conversation and
learning but in a nutshell and this is
by the way discussed in mususwara you
know not just in khabar and this idea of
the reconciliation between
school the knowledge of God and man's
free choice but and the answer is from
God's perspective he knows everything
from our perspective we know nothing
and the two work together
the two worked together
in other words God's knowledge this is
another word God's knowledge is not
makria it doesn't Force our hero
God knows the choice that we are going
to make not that God's knowledge forces
us to make the choice
think about that think about that
list as well right right right I have
another Seer so we'll see everyone
tomorrow have a great day nice talking
nice learning bye-bye
