holding down page meid turn off your um
mute yourself please and we're uh about
seven lines from the bottom where it
says after the
period no sorry sorry sorry oh way way
before first we're going to learn the
mus the mus
is it's seven lines from the top from
the beginning of me me page me the the
word the first word on the line is
who let's
continue to understand this concept that
the
primary issue is is is is is M's
action even greater than love and fear
for God as we'll explain soon
later the AL brings a a a quote from the
Yuka in the zes there's a famous Yuka by
the way the Yuka is the son
of Sab it was a sage named Sab and his
son is referred to
as so it says
say the verse
quote the wise person his eyes is in his
head now so
asks where else is the
person's eyes of course they're in the
head so what's the
saying of
course
answers in other words this is the
meaning in the verse surely we
learned the Z says a person should not
walk a ye should not walk four Cupids
with without a covering on his head
which by the way is one of the sources
for or the source for not walking four
cubits without a y
keep my but why what's the
reason rests on a person's
head and every wise person his eyes and
his speech speech his mouth is in his
head they are in his in they are in his
head and and that's how rest on the
head and when and when the the the the
eyes of Express
the light of the that's of the
that's it's like similar to a
candle and to a wick and
oil you need to have oil in order for a
candle he brings a mus in the in order
for a
candle a wick to be to light to catch on
fire it needs oil and without the oil
the Fire doesn't hop does it's not it's
not doesn't isn't become part of the
wick it doesn't catch on fire says the
says says
the begin so to
the the body of a
person that's analogous to the
wick and
light is lit
on the body on the Goof that means the
the the
Nish is lit in the Goof because the Goof
is the receptacle in the vessel to hold
the light of
the King
Solomon he shouted like and he
said
there's
another says oil on your head do not
diminish in other words if you don't
have
oil the the wick won't catch on fire you
must have
oil
the because the light that's on the head
requires oil en and what is oil what is
the the moral the nimal of the oil
says the this is all part of the
same these are good
deeds and this is what the verse
means that the wise person his eyes are
on his head I'm going to explain now
this this section of Z because it's very
important Z is saying like this just as
why can't a wick catch on fire without
oil you know
why you know why cuz it's too
thick the oil makes it possible for the
wick to catch on fire
better so in other words what we see is
that in order for the so so to in the in
the moral in order for the to
be on a person that should be revealed
in a Jew the person's body their goof
needs to be
refined how is the Goof refined says the
zes not through loving and fearing God
but
through through Good
Deeds like mosha said yesterday and he
supported it
an right action
now
why you would
think that the the soul is Holy enough
MOA it's holy enough to be the
receptacle for God to be on the person
and we say and Z doesn't say that the
zya says it needs the the soul needs to
do good
deeds and if it doesn't do Good Deeds
even though
it's and
the CH is not resting Al that's a that's
a a phenomenal piece of Z and it's a
perplexing one and the alter is tackling
it here in Tanya because he's he's he
seeks to explain the virtue of M over a
and this is a fundamental
chapter in Tanya is to explain this idea
all the shaking and all the love and all
the fear of
the pales in comparison to one time
putting
on the story there was
a Mas there was a
a and a very big H his name
was oh my gosh my memory is really
the the palova it was called the ra of
palova
morz was his name and he was he was a
Rob
palto and he was ausa for a while of the
re rashab so you can imagine what kind
of great mind and person he was and I
heard from someone who remembered him
when he would come to the
rashab so this is a real story
at the end of his life the doctors told
him shortly you're you're going to pass
away you know whatever he was very ill
so he asked them this is the way the
story goes so don't ask me you know
questions CU I don't have all the
answers how what when I'm just repeating
I know we have a doctor here so I have
to I have to make that preface cuz
you're going to hear it and it doesn't
sound so medically no cases and mes yeah
no cases and
mes so this is the story
so they he asked what what you know why
am I so sick you know what what happened
over here so they said 30 years the last
30 years you haven't been eating
properly because of your avod of esaf of
holding your back from from thus of food
whatever and you can imagine how much
food they had then but whatever it is
you were very much into the aod of scfa
and you didn't sleep on a normal bed
again what's a normal bed so you know
whatever it was in Russia in 1900 1910
whatever it
was and you you hurt your
body you your scafa that you did to
develop more love and offer hasem and
that should be your only focus and not
gmas
right hurt you the as it hurt you and
you became very and you're very sick you
know from not eating and sleeping and
and everything else
properly and when he heard
that said said if I
knew that my 30 years of
aafia would make me pass
on so that the next day I couldn't put
on Fillin I wouldn't do
it because one day putting on filling is
worth more than 30 years is
cfia I mean it's it's a tremendous
insight into the and approach and this
is what says here
in all the all the A and it's you're
talking real a real offer hasem it PS in
comparison to one time putting
on that's what the Z says now of course
when heard the story that I just told
you they said who is the type of Jew
that can make such a statement and mean
it only someone who dies because he did
30 years of
aafia otherwise they're a
bluffer they don't really feel the value
of putting on F in one more day but
that's a a sidebar for a fa brain you
know that's like you know do I really
mean it or do I not really mean it but
but in the the house relevant I'm
sharing that story because we're
learning here
in so now the is going to explain it
let's go
further to explain
this that the light of the has been
compared to the light of a
candle which doesn't
catch on fire to the
wick unless you have oil without oil so
to the
[Music]
moral will not dwell on the body of a
person the body of the person which is
could be compared to the
wick spells it out only specifically
through doing good
deeds and the the next
words and it's not adequate enough to
tell me that you you have a and your
your is on a high for with love and fear
and
this why is not not adequate in other
words why must I have oil isert that's
the
question why can't the why can't the
wick catch on fire directly from the
fire without the oil
[Music]
because the the the Goof is like the the
oil to the
wick everyone who can understand you
know why it
is when he says here a heavy heavy
line the soul of a person and even the
soul of a complete
sadic I
who serves God with all and
love with a love of delights and
pleasure he gets delight and pleasure
from serving
God
nevertheless it's not completely an its
existence is not
an to be absorbed and included top of
page
88 in the one in the light of God in
actuality to
become United and
one with complete
Unity
rather it remains
separate fearing God and loving
God here
has wiped
away the TR the classical understanding
of a sadic
loving and fearing God the AL says if it
all comes from the of the person in the
eye of the person at through the Nish
there's still not complete Unity there
is love for God there's fear for God but
it's coming from
a it's coming from an existence it's an
existence that loves and fears
God such a
you know you tell this to any Ben like
they'll they'll flip out I mean what
what do you mean he's aad he's a god
he's a r he loves God he fears God what
is making a distinction here and says
yes he has love for God and he has fear
for God but there is a he who has the
love and fear for God there is some
that's not completely nullified to
Hashem and you know why because the soul
is already defined
you hear
this the has a
definition its Abode is God its comfort
zone is God therefore the Nish is
already limited so if you're telling me
if you're telling me that the the love
and fear of Hashem even by aad comes
from the show perspective it's very nice
and very special and Hali
we should have that but at the end of
the day that's not what Hashem wants
Hashem wants something greater put F on
one time put on a muza go visit someone
that act is totally
selfless so if Tak listen to this if Tak
you putting on film
because I'm going to say you want to
help the soldiers that's like the N it's
very good but it's not the ultimate you
don't put fil on because you want to
help the soldiers you put F on because
that's God's will
finished the fact that it'll help the
soldiers Hali orain yes but that's not
why you put fillan on that's not why you
go and help a
Jew and and and and and the difference
is a very slight difference but in
philosophy in ideology it's a major
difference it's the the difference
between what being one with God or not
being one with God but being an adjunct
to God and again I
say we would be an adjunct to God but
the is he wants to bring out to us why
the says
that good deeds is the is analogous to
the oil that makes the life come in
other words the will not be sh the will
not rest only because of
the that's what we just learned now it's
a very very uh important
n what time is it now I don't have a
watch 312 okay another few minutes 312
okay thank
you contrary conversely are MIT
good we're talking about doing good
deeds that are God's
Will and hashem's will is the source of
life for all worlds and All
Creatures God descends upon
them through many
constrictions and concealment of the
continent of God's will God's will
and God descends
levels until he's able to
create to create
yes something that's created that seems
to be totally separate from
God and they won't be aned in their
existence to goding
conversely which are the will of God in
the inner will of God has upon Him CL
and there is no concealment of God's
countenance the Vitality within them is
not a separate existence on its own
rather it's
United becomes one so the AL basically
in this section
makes a difference and says what's the
difference between Good Deeds
mitzvas it's not a good translation but
I'm saying a good deed that's also a
Mitzvah versus the creation of the world
which is God's will says yes but the
creation of the world comes through Tsum
contractions restrictions so the light
is not clear it's like covered and
covered it becomes more and more the
energy of a God but in mitzvah as we
learned in chapter 23 T
the is the Mitzvah the Mitzvah itself
the itself this is what Hashem wants
it's the highest form of godliness is
the Mitzvah because the commander gave
us a commandment
yes it's actually very close to what we
just learned this
morning the end of end of letter 29
right
right right okay we'll stop here and
tomorrow we'll continue have a great day
everyone be safe and
I'm and we're gonna beat this negativity
and
with take care okay
thanks
