learning chapter 45 I'd like to finish
the chapter page
128 um and we're holding about this idea
that yov kissed RA in the Torah he
lifted his voice and he says um tell me
about yourself now by the
way this seems to be very odd the first
thing when you meet a when when you meet
someone you want to know about them you
says tell me about yourself the next
thing you do is you pray and the third
thing is you
kiss the PK in the Torah is just the
opposite
kisses the next part he lifts his voice
and cries prays and the third thing he
says and who are what family do you come
from just the opposite so the ezar on
the PK asked this question and the re's
father in comment on the on the Tanya
here brings this as a response to the
message of the ALB is saying
here the kissing the vishak is a result
of number one exploring who are you and
number two praying lifting your voice to
God then the kiss is Meaningful and this
a powerful lesson as
well the kiss that yov gave ra which
means the the emission of breath to
breath Visa the kiss the deep
relationship that's implied in a kiss
comes only after who are you and once
you know who you are Mark once you know
who you
are then you pray you pray to God
there's something in me that's a little
stuck that's called the nitu it's the
spark the god of sold and effici kiss
and now I want via through the prayer
it's elevated to a place which
transcends then the kiss is a kiss then
the kiss is a proper kiss but if you go
right for the
kiss it's invalid it yeah it a temporary
pleasure and temporary experience but if
you want the experience to last and in
our case we're talking about Torah mitz
being Dr Reb says in chapter 45 employ
this method but again we started to
learn and you know about ra what what
I'm adding today is that the AL is
saying the Rah comes first through who
are you where am I at what has happened
in my life if you don't know and you
don't assess what has happened in your
life you're chuva you're returning to
God and your your your relationship is
faltered it's not it's not based on On
Solid Ground you know and and talking
about relationships people need to know
the issues between themselves if they're
going to create an intimate Bond if
they're going to create a a
relationship like employer and employees
or Partners I know the Reb answered some
people like for Partnerships and
business what do you need this s what do
you need this problem you don't have
enough
problems but but but I'm if I if I get a
get a share in the with the CEO of IBM
or whatever of Facebook or whatever is
popular o oh really and what about all
the issues that come along with it you
know so the point is you have to really
know the person and you have to know
yourself and then you have to know
what's going on with your with your Nish
where am I AO famous Story the AL right
the guys say AO Al says to the guard how
old are you AO he says I'm 55 he says AO
that's your pport age you're
55 where are you really where are you at
your
spiritual your your your connection to
where where are you not your age and not
what you're doing and all of that so
let's go inside now page 128
and um V we're in the middle of the page
about 12 to 14 lines down the there's a
period and the last word on the line is
this is part of the verse
by it says that yob lifted his voice he
raised his
voice and V why did he
cry
call yov wasn't just thinking about
himself he was thinking about All
Souls all Jewish
Souls the source of all Jewish
souls to elevate
them from their
Exile and to reunite them to their true
superal
Unity infinite God in what manner so
there the PK
says he used the instrument called
kissing the shikin as the means to uh to
to create this Bond and the AL now says
what a kisses okay chapter 45 Tanya is
the chapter for
kissing in today's grub world we have to
put it in these terms unfortunately or
fortunately whatever you know you want
to know what a kiss is according to
Torah
and right here
she
is it's the attachment from the word
Dak
is it's the connection the attachment of
spirit to Spirit the two people who kiss
each other it's not the physical lips
and the physic
gash it's the spirit that the that's
coming from the inside of each person
that connects with each other the
kiss bring support it
says kiss
me from the kisses of your of your mouth
which of course is used always uh
reference sometimes in a slanderous way
where someone wants to say someone go
somewhere so they say I'm telling you
the secrets of theer now so don't don't
publicize it they say
isak kiss me you know you know what that
is in English I don't want have to say
it
yesak they'll just say one word yes okay
it's a quote from
this it's a quote from
from so the AL employs it too but in in
in a kosher
wayak the kiss
isik it's from the kiss of of the mouth
of God it's not just a kiss of physical
kiss sure it's a physical kiss but what
is get what is happening in this
transmission between the the two kissers
it's the pemus that's coming out let's
continue
is it's The Binding the connection of
man's speech
with this with with the word of hem in
so when you learn T you're kissing
God why because there's
theem and you're saying it with your
deor so your deor which is is based on
the air right your air your breathing is
expressing something deeper from
within and it's and you're expressing it
through learning so when you learn
says that it's the concept
of it's spiritual
kissing then we have The Binding of the
mind to the mind when you use your mind
to study
Torah then we also have action to action
through the deed of Mitzvah so the AL
says here that in each of the three
elements
thought speech and we have
on relationship so I want to make this
clear one second m not only not only in
not only in speech is there than the
shikin relationship but also in thought
when you thinking Torah you want to
understand right and also when you're
doing you're putting on there is a form
of Nik go ahead M
what when writes
here I don't know it's zoo or zo zoo zoo
zoo he
says is the reason he just just to go
back for a second is there reason he
says as opposed
[Music]
to I mean yeah yeah there is because is
the bottom line like we discussed
yesterday so is the expresses the M he's
emphasizing
later so is kind of the within Torah
Torah study there's Torah study there is
study what go
ahead yes just following up on
that would you say that there's sort of
an undercurrent
amongst as opposed to L World maybe to
focus a little bit more on yes we we we
yes we discussed that yesterday iser
brought it up absolutely absolutely is
is made made a very good point about the
difference in the Kim and all that yeah
for sure no question about it
that's suggest
in correct correct let's
continue now says Within action itself
said there's all kinds of
Deeds specifically the act of
giving the act
of and is where you have more of that
kissing
relationship you put on you put on right
all Mitzvah but when you help a with it
and you give and by the way s doesn't
mean just giving a dime in the pushka OR
to someone who needs but you know you
slap someone's
packages you know or if you learn with
someone who doesn't know
yet there's three
things with your body exerting your body
right to help someone
else with your money
and
number three with your
soul you take away from your time and
your learning and your K and your
rashash and you go and learn with
someone who doesn't know as much when I
was in Yesa in Ocean Park way when I was
17 you know I was a good bck and I
wanted to learn with the best B because
this way we can as they say by the
L I can really learn a lot right you
know my principal who was a Survivor and
a
tremendous said to me I want you to
learn with this and this B he came from
another country I think from Italy he
didn't know as much and I said RAB taban
was his name I said RAB tab it's my best
years I'm just starting to learn I'm
starting to understand I I really want
to with the with the best B in Yesa he
and I will will be you know it will be
great it'll be important he says you'll
gain more from learning with him than
learning with with the strong B cuz
gaining learning with the the the weak
you'll have to really learn harder
because you have to explain it to him
and guess what I
listened he's right he's right I
listened
what it's it's act of kindness of course
it's an act of of of course it's an act
of
kindness yes yes but but it's like you
know when you're sitting around at
Harvard with geniuses is you don't want
to go to in Brooklyn College or or
whatever you know what you consider
Harvard the G these are going to be the
future CEOs the future MERS of of of the
future presidents of Vice President blah
blah blah blah so I have to now as much
as I can cuz I can also one day be a
future Star right so it's not easy to
give that up but the fact is that when
you when you take time and says an
interesting point
a lot of
people oh my
gosh
