so we're learning chapter
33 we're still on page
82 the bottom of the
page brings
here a a a
meditation that will lead a person to
have and we discussed yesterday at
length why he says and that is why is it
this is the true Joy the true
Sim that's the first line
of and why is it it's
because this is
generated
by a meditation
on so look you see on the fourth line at
the end it
says and then on the Fifth Line the
word so this I just noticed now you see
took me so many years I've learn I've
been learning Tanya all year after year
I never realized this he
says on the first line
of there shall be the joy of your heart
of your s of your soul the true one and
then he says when you will
be you'll deepen your
mind and you bring the imagery to your
mind which idea the concept of God's
Unity so it's
interesting why why does he why does he
have to say if
it's of course it's if it's
about's
it's so just I realized that maybe maybe
I'm saying maybe I didn't see this and I
didn't hear this from
anybody maybe because he says
simp he says
here now in classical theology it's not
about oh a word here and a word there
you know the equal they
that's not the way
works is understanding
so so what is what it's not just this
word and that word or but
rather the AL says if you want to have
true joy in your
life you need to have the
true the
true what does it mean the
true and Al says three things let's
follow his
wording actually yeah number
one pervades all
Worlds the upper
ones and the lower
ones that's the that's Point number one
this is what we call In
classical Al it's the energy of Hashem
that pervades the individual from where
the individual is coming from a hand is
a hand and a rock is a rock and
everything has its highest its
energy Point number two
V and even even hasem who FS all
worlds this is the covered the honor of
hem that there ends Point number
two this as explained is a reference to
what we
call the periphery energy of
God which is spoken about and discussed
in chapter 48 of T at
length is classically known as the
Mak but in a moment explain that it's
not a Mak that has it's not an a
something that surrounds you and it's
outside of you it's
also with it also makes a impact on you
but in a different way than
Mal okay first I want to tell you what
the three things are Point number three
meditation number
three and everything before for him
before God is is
not it doesn't say it
say is like not but then he adds the
word
Mish so the question here
is what's the addition of the word
Mish so this is this is the the basic
explanation the way I heard it for my
teacher
that the AL the
AL is telling the person person to
experience you have to be one with God
in other words God's
reality needs to be in every aspect of
your life from the greatest to the
lowest from the most significant and the
most
insignificant therefore in order to do
that you have to know that
AES pervades the world encompasses the
world and is in the world we call
this and
like although he doesn't use the word
here Essence he uses the
word but in this context you see here's
an example of what I've taught
you many years ago it's worth
repeating that
in you have to when when you start
learning it you want to understand it
deeply not just to read it you have to
know that things are
Yaki what does Yaki
mean the theory of relativity yakas it's
relative in other words these three
ideas when you find them elsewhere and
you find them in thousands of pages
could mean something else refer to
something else because it depends on the
context in that particular
Miner here in Tanya the way he positions
it here and the context over here it
takes on a different
meaning so that way this this approach
is
called relatives it's
an so what is the what's the approach
that he takes over
here Al says here when it comes
to right what is that
everything
now you all know that there it
says without the
word I believe
in so we
have there's nothing without him
implying that with him there is
something that's not the highest
form that's not the
highest that's like
saying my art your
art without you is insignificant because
you drew it and you you created it guess
what but with you the art takes its own
independence
significant the message that the art
conveys in 50 years from now in 100
years from
now depending on
how how one you were with that art that
you drew 100 years before will be
perceived that
way it's a mush the Nim is the moral is
the there is the way the world can't
exist without God but with God the world
can exist that means that there's
something some aota of Independence to
the world that's not not the highest
form of of unity that means that your
the world has also a
say the say is I need God to give me a
say but once God gives me a place a
platform I'm also a
something and if I'm also a something
outside of God that's not the highest
form
of the highest form Val of is
I believe the Reb spoke about this
one I think I was
at probably the late 70s it's already
printed and it's it's it was a lot of
deep it's based on
my the difference between the B
of and the B
of are you following when we
say nothing beside God that implies that
with God there is
something when you don't have
the when you only
have there is
nothing there's nothing
else without bil that's even a deeper b
a deeper nullification of the world
being totally a note to God's pre
Oneness I use this to explain what we're
learning here there is the of from the
perspective
of alment at the end of the day
sustains is God sustaining The World God
Pera pervading and giving energy
everything has its energy but what but
what's the mindset of there should be a
world but in this world that there is
it's god making the world but the
mindset ofal is there should be a world
there should
be and that's why that's why in the
mindset
of there's a difference between good art
and not such good
art there's a difference between
upper
sophisticates and and
nothing
because is an aspect of God that lends
itself to
realization of
differences of up and down of positive
and negative just that that both
positive and negative is from
God then we have a
higher the higher is the second point
Point even hasem who fulfills this
world it is his
C honor if someone asks you
where in your psyche and in your body is
the Abode of
honor the answer is there is no one one
designated
Place honor is Mak all of you is
honored the the bra the mind is in the
brain mid the emotions are in the heart
there is a seat there's a specific place
for because they're reminiscent
of when it comes to let's say pleasure
will
honor those are all we call MIM they
Encompass what Bean they mcompass
they're not
individualized so says
here even the the pervading of the world
that of hasem doing that
who there's a deeper level it's the
honor of God it's
it's now when we talk about a
miracle when a miracle
happens kep do is it that is it that
Hashem talking about a miracle that's
all awesome and everyone sees it and
hears it and feels it it's
miraculous
is the miracle in in
beas to the
individual it pervades the individual or
it just encompasses the individual it
just
encompasses but guess what it
encompasses in a way that it touches you
it's not that wow this is awesome this
is
miraculous and and I don't and I don't
understand it but I
this happened and guess what when this
happens you make a
move we make a
move so even what do we
say in other words even the energy that
we call the the periphery encompassing
energy it's called
Al it's not that it doesn't have a sh a
sh a relationship with Alman it has a
relationship with Alman but the impact
on Al is in a
way of M and that's the basic difference
between Al and m al the way it impacts
the world is direct it pervades it's
from the
inside TI forat everything has its box
sa impacts the world but in a way that
it's outside of the box so therefore
therefore can we say one second M let I
got my thought here but can we say that
in there is no Nuance of
recognition given to the universe to the
world absolutely not as soon as you say
it's Al that means Al has inish we use
the
word what does mean a
value if it wouldn't have a value then
there wouldn't be a miracle to the world
it's a miracle to the world in the world
it's not a miracle somewhere else it's a
miracle here that means that level of
Miracle is still associated with almond
and if that's the case it's also not the
highest form
of it's a greater than the first
of I'm sorry
of is a greater but it's not the
ultimate and therefore he comes along
and he says the third meditation
for and that
is
now
here basically
says
both are
like we say or it's not F what do you
mean it's F it's an energy of
of course we don't mean what we mean is
that it gives no significance to the
world and yet it's all of the
world that's the axim within the
third experience of third energy of hem
called over here he calls
it but he says the word Mish what is the
AL with the word Mish the word Mish
means tangibility you see
from the perspective of male the world
is very significant from the perspective
of the world is not significant only
only but for the expression of God and
for the third level the world is all
significant but not because of it that
it has value and importance but because
God wants it so Mish means it's tangible
it's a parrot filling it came from an
animal it's a muza you took the hide it
was rough and tough and smelly and you
worked it out and you put holy letters
of the of the olive Bays on it and you
did a Kadin vas like and it became a a
mua par villain and then you put them on
your door you put them on your arm
that's mamish it's you could feel it
touch the villain it's tangible but what
are
what is the m it's
a that's it's a piece of God you have a
you have a piece of God on
you there's not there's nothing else to
it right who decides that writing AB
letters of the olive Bas on a parchment
all of a sudden makes it holy the answer
is
it's only for if not
forem saying
that it would be nothing nothing would
be aable means a piece of scrap right so
its significance is only
because but yet we have thatza it's Mish
it's tangible the level of hasem called
Essence Atmos or in English the word
would be
Transcendence the transcendental aspect
of God the transcendental aspect of
hasem is neither
male
nor it is it
is and the the many times would always
I'm going to let you the moment I know
you I'm testing your
patience the
the re when he when he spoke about this
from time to time he would say that he
would bring the story with the when he
was a young
boy and and the AL was in the room so
they asked him who's
this so he said
Z he didn't say Al he didn't say balat
he didn't say
first he didn't say the he didn't say
you
know
Z that's
it that word encapsulates everything
Z the Mish that we're talking about in
the in the third meditation of
K it's Mish it's on one hand all of
everything it's it's feelable it's Fey
feely you know you could feel it tap it
touch it and what is it
God
the famous story of the right the you
saw the great sad told his son he spoke
in the Polish yish dialect top top means
touch he tells the son top me touch me
so he says T I'm going to tap you so he
touches his
father he says F what do you
feel if feel a hunt I feel your hand
your
arm so he says to his
son the bow
dets H feels the hunt since you are
touching me with your hand you feel my
hand my
arm if you would tap me if you touch me
with God you would feel God I don't know
if he said that but that's the
implication
Mish is
a good it's a piece of God but if you
but if you touch this piece of God like
an animal you feel animal you don't feel
God
right get up like a lion what see them
say if you go to sleep the night before
like a lion then you can get up like a
lion if you go to sleep like a horse you
ain't getting up like a lion you're
getting up like a big horse
and that's why we need the preparation
ofish to put the perspective the right
perspective mha I finished my monologue
it is your
turn well I was originally going to ask
you for three exam examples of all three
levels M example you gave the example
about the
F when you gave that example you remind
me about yesterday's y
because starts out but says mitvah is an
idiom of yes joining attachment yes and
it I think discusses very very much the
example the last example that you just
gave but I but going back I just I was I
was just curious for examples of all
three simply
something tangible here so you you gave
you gave to
F my question I gave you also the
miracle I gave you an example of Miracle
for a miracle experience would be the
second level of
saiv do
you okay in other words yeah go
ahead no no go ahead no no no do you do
do you do do you understand that or or
you want me to
clarify maybe clarify please I might
okay when I when a miracle happens it
impacts us but it's it it's not like
it's not it's not within us in other
words could you explain a miracle
talking about a
Crossing yamu we're talking about a you
know an open Miracle right that everyone
says wow God got this is
AEM so it's not something that's that
that you generated you hear my it's not
that you generated it it was imposed on
you but so but it impacts you so in
other words it's outside of your daily
experience right it's outside of your
mind and your heart but yet your mind
and heart are impacted wow you have an
emotion wow if Hashem makes this miracle
can make such a miracle he's an awesome
God but you don't really know let me
give you another example to that I I've
said it many times but I'll repeat it
you go to a
sheer hopefully it's this she and you
come out you say wow what a Shear you
come home and your wife says M what' you
learn this morning you're sitting at
supper you say I don't know but it was
awesome it was it knocked me off my feet
wow tell me something you don't have the
words to say it why because for whatever
reason you didn't internalize the she
yet and maybe you won't but it made an
impact that you were like wow you know
what we learned this morning is
unbelievable right that's
Mak that is not pervading you it
encompasses you see pervading you means
you can sit and explain to your wife and
your kids and your friends what was sent
by the sheer the intricacies the
questions the answers the back and forth
and everything that's that's the very
that's
M right and you know why because that
type of a sheer and that type of
reception of
goes into your intellect where you can
understand it so just like you're asking
me now right what you're doing is a m al
experience which is
wonderful in other words you're saying
please give me concrete examples cuz I I
I I I hear these you know lofty words
and and and you know and it's nice and
great but I just don't I don't have it I
can't chew it I can't chew it I can't
digest it right that's
you're not looking to chew it you're
looking to be
inspired and and in our life by the way
we have these two experiences at times
we just looking for the inspiration not
for the
articulation and digestability and and
and I could you know put things in into
each place we're not looking for that
for whatever reason but we Want To Be
Inspired right and then there are times
especially when you go to school go to
college go to Yeshiva Right medical
school ville's dealing with life and
death issues and all can't it's not you
got to know the information you got to
be current and you got to read and you
got to go to conferences you have to
know what's happening you can't just say
oh uh they came out with a new meter for
diabetes which is unbelievable and it's
going to replace this and that that's a
lot of
hype hype is great cuz they did come out
with such a thing and there is new
breakthroughs but when you deal with a
patient on the table you want to know
and they want to know the details how is
this going to help me daily that's my
mum so I gave you an example now mha
that from your own questioning which is
your questioning is like the
and the wow the she was great but I
can't repeat it would
be you you raised your hand what did you
want to
say
m you here yeah yeah so again will just
clarify the first is we
say yes the next is
Mal
that would be so yes even though don't I
know yeah even though it says the word
Malay don't don't be thrown
off and already it doesn't mean here M
even though the word m means to fill to
prade but the second one
is the second one is s yes the second
one is sovet okay and and vula from the
word vula from the word Kola be is the
third which
is
Transcendence Transcendence
yeah this is the way to to this is a
little bit the right way to learn T
properly you know doesn't just spill ink
on a paper another word another word
everything has a meaning so we didn't
learn much text but it was necessary to
really clarify with tomorrow the day
after hopefully we can finish okay
everyone stay
safe have a great day bye-bye take care
