good morning to avi and that's after
anyone else
we're in the middle of the mime of akiba
yehudim
at the previous set up he said in moscow
in 1927.
we're learning it from the safer called
my mother mulch
base that not to be confused would say
for how my mother
could trace him
so let us let us begin
we are on page
on page one
hold on
page 200
in the middle of the page
this would be one two three four five
six seven
eight nine ten ten lines from the top
line
the fifth line the fifth word into the
lines
avi you have it
okay so
what we're going to do what we learned
yesterday what we're learning today is a
very
central theme in chabad hasidis
and what is it that the primary
aspect of faith in god is not
with with it's not with nature
you don't need pure faith and real faith
to believe in nature
because nature makes sense
it makes sense that
that there is
there is a law and order to nature
now it's true there are those that argue
that god forbid there is no god in
nature and nature operates on its own
however the argument of torah
and jewish philosophers and and
kabbalists
and khasi and rabbits hasidic rabbis is
otherwise and each one has their
approach to prove its point
but this is all called me malik
this is all called the light that
pervades the world
the energy that makes sense you get up
in the morning
and you you you're breathing and you
you get dressed and you function and
everything else
but then there is an experience that
is transcendent transcendent means
it doesn't make sense it's out of the
ordinary
and here you know
it's easier to say that there is no
rhyme and reason to it and there's no
connection to godliness so qasida says
that is why the primary role
of munna
we call this energy saveth
and the previous rabbit the author of
the mimer that we're learning
on page 200 teaches us in the name of
the al tadab
in chapter 48 he says don't
confuse yourself and think
that slave means it's outside of the
world or it's outside of your experience
no it's right there with you
in your living room in your dining room
in your shoe it's right there with you
however
being that it's the style and manner of
the
of the way this energy vitalizes the
world
is not in a pervasive way we call it
slave of calamine
so and and this
is where one's primary and munna lies
the eaker of ammuna is insane of
colombia
let's look how the rebel says it page
200 10 lines the top
in the middle of the word in the middle
of the line
uh the primary aspect of him um
when it comes to the pervasive energy of
god known as
[Music]
this can be comprehended understood
as though you actually see it with your
eyes
you don't need faith it's like you see
it
faith is something i don't see and i
believe
but something that you can actually it
doesn't say you
see it it says you will mean just that
just like
as though as though
and the rep explains what
i said i see yeah
from my own flesh i perceive godliness
this is part of a verse that hasidis
brings regularly
[Music]
every person from his own experience and
what's going on with himself
can understand and comprehend as
how things are in the world
behind and explains just this means the
commercial
of the mother is beyonce just as a man
a man feels within himself
that he has a life force that's that
enlivens him that makes him alive that
because the body is alive
and the fact that the body is alive
it's not only it doesn't only mean
that he has something that is alive that
takes this
uh inanimate corpse this body that's
dead
and it makes it live that's not
only what it means
spends a lot of time on this when we say
avi
that the goof is high we mean that
the life force has become one
with the body and as though the body
itself is alive without a life force
right in other words there is the
highest on the summer
and there's the the the life force of
the soul that animates the body
and this by the way is what we say in
the morning um
he makes a wonderous it's wondrous the
way hashem brings the
nephesh into the summer together so this
explains what's the wonder over here
it seems to be you know a natural
phenomenon that if there's a soul that's
so it
it vivifies the body the kiddish is
that the highest side the highest and
the shama
becomes part of the body
and the body itself now is alive
as though even it's like saying even if
there wasn't highest on the shaman the
body
the body now is alive it's not that way
because it has on the shoulder
but to to to emphasize the yehud
the actors the unity between soul and
body
that's what we say um
not that the body itself is alive not
just that it has an animating force
that keeps it alive and when that
animating force
goes it goes the rebel ashab has a minor
tough
test 1899 his famous sword
safer that we learned in yeshiva where
he talks about this briefly
and he says you you you you that that
there is
in the body even after death
caius do you know that says that
i sort of one place and that mimer you
know might be in a parenthesis but he
does say that
beca and based on what it says here in
other places
it makes sense because the highest has
become
so one with the with the goof that the
goof is highest now you'll say well
there's a
time when the person is dead and when
he's dead
where's the highest the answer is the
highest at that time dies as well
but till there is a he i guess till the
burial i'm not sure
how it works exactly there is some what
we call kista de cayusa
a remnant of hayas
let's continue
um
and this itself that the goof is high
the person knows where did it come from
it came from the from the the force
the soul
the feeling is that i i initially i
wasn't the goof was not alive it got
this feeling it got its highest from
the summer for your day a haitive
and it knows very well
that this energy is godliness the goalie
reveal godliness
because he sees the person sees the mash
something that is not apparent godliness
is not alive
only godliness is alive
yes the goof itself which is a mathias
of a yesh
of an existence
it doesn't live if it doesn't have a
nephesh
the hurak would see as kaimeek
it is only a sustainable
existence to fix zetas deuterono
based on the decree of the supernal
knowledge of god shazam
knowing that hashem wants it to exist
that itself gives its existence
that is
it's because the soul that is alive is
because the soul is godliness
right the highest well he calls
highest here is his definition
we talk about highest vitality life
force
it's helicos it's godliness that is the
gether
that is the the the condition that is
the makeup
of hayes
as it says
and god of truth who elokim
he is the living god you can't separate
the
understand you can't separate elokim ms
from eli kim hyeon
if it's haiyim if it's life it's emma's
god is emes
that's why what is the vessel
what is the way we access
the highest it's through humility
subservience we call that
bitter uh
fear of god i am for life
right you want to have lechayan
you have to beat hashem which
as a play on words when you take him it
should be with the sense of yiddish
hashem
not frivolity and nonsense
it reminds me when i saw the option of
the river
and you know when he gives like a broker
he becomes so intense like it's scary
the year's hashem is so palpable at the
moment
and then he says so the entire chain is
the iris hashem
let's go fight it
and by the way that also explains this
story i think
it's brought in if my memory serves me
correctly
that the samadhik once said a lot of the
chayam
and then it came time to say torah so he
he stopped and thought and maybe wiped
his forehead or something like that
he brought a sense of here upon himself
hashem
and all the mosques all the
the the intoxication of the lots of the
he took
went away on the spot the fear of god
the awesomeness of god impacted him like
he didn't drink a drop
right i i don't believe that young i
don't university okay
so then it's not my game yet but i then
itself switch it it's a known mice
that i think that edward and i think
that ever said it over several times by
fabregas
you never heard the story small
no really yeah yeah
famous mice okay
fighter
so that's why it says neta that
what is the vessel for vitality for
highest
for godliness it is year
or and fear or in other words in the in
the word
wordage of the of hasidis
humility and subservience
we see that angels
live forever
because they're in constant subservience
and humility for hashem
so that's why they have highest
you want to live forever be a year of
shamayam
a yiddish
it's just a matter of transferring to
the next generation next generation but
you're all about yidda
life that's what he says and that's why
malachi
they never die did you ever hear an
angel dying
no the same angel that helped that from
can help someone today
hey where have you been for 4 000 years
oh i've been taking
uh uh a walk no no no
you're alive you're doing different
missions for different people
says as this is explained elsewhere for
heinous
who will he calls begoli and this is
because
highest vitality and energy and life
force
is elecus begully it's observable
and obvious and revealed godliness
okay now please therefore
the vessel fault is highest for this
vitality
who are bitter it is humility of
subservience
so this is a a smaller gether this is a
like a
a very poignant uh nakuda that that ever
teaches us here which we could live with
and understand and
and walk with daily that the
kaley for highest is bitter that's it
that's the barometer if you want to know
if someone is
highest if he's alive ask yourself
and ask is there bitter here and if
there is
it's godliness if not it's not
even though it looks it looks like it
looks that way
okay i told you when i uh
when i went to ask the rabbi david
boxery about the the the
the book uh exorcism that he performed
and those questions whether it was true
or
fake and all that and and i spent 45
minutes with him this was in 2001 in
yerushalayim
in the near maya not actually over there
a few blocks away and um he's and i said
to him you know there were people in the
room that were trying to sabotage you i
said it in hebrew because that's what i
was told
it's a whole certain culture you know
they come and they try to cut your feet
we'll have to cut your feet you know
knock you down so he said so i said
you believe that it was a real book and
and so he said
baruch hashem he spoke with such
humility and that that blew me away
you know and i spoke to him for 45
minutes you know and
and trying from this angle going in from
this angle you know
from different and and his subservience
of bitter was
very refreshing and that is a simmon
that the man is you know is not saying
i'm the great
capitalist and i know how to do it he's
i remember he said the words
says that he goes back to his point that
he's making his main point
regarding the energy of hashem it's
called malik
that pervades the world aina
you see the words he doesn't say it's
not it's not possible
it's not even possible the whole idea of
a munna
don't waste them or better said
mama calamin
use your brain use your mind use your
heart and you'll see clearly that god is
here
and if you don't see it work harder
learn more think more
discuss more but it's all between us
that's why it says it's not
even possible kim
when we talk about the primary aspect of
faith
who it is rather kim it is only
a slave of call out men it's the
experience of god
known as transcendence save kalaumi
no sorry no
that is not comprehensible
and feel and and and felt
[Music]
slave of calamine in other words now
you're
you're probably wondering what he means
not felt
you're innocent when a miracle happens
i i see it you know i i the answer is
you of course it's felt you can't
explain it that's what he means it's not
felt
it's not explainable i don't know how to
explain it
so over there and munna is necessary
and without and munna you have no way of
of relating to it
so that's why the icara munna the
primary munna
is regarding save of calhoun 201 the
kitchen
the aid of kalami makifa
we explained that the energy called save
kalam and
mock if it surrounds it encompasses
it's not in a previous not invested
can be understood from my flesh i
perceive
godliness the avail and he explained
that clearly
that the vessel for highest for energy
is humility subservience
why do angels exist and never cease to
be
because they have a constant bitter
you in a next paragraph
it's regarding this that we say daily
hashem
his name and his kingdom be glorified
forever for eternity
[Music]
that we have the two levels of mammalic
men and savior colombia
so the rebel now sets up he makes a
statement
that hashem and uber
shame refer to mama and save let's see
how he speaks about it
they have faith so basically
this is two levels of you of
subservience of beethoven
it says kale there is hashem
god has like two dales two opinions
bay's dales two levels of knowledge
elio what we call supernal knowledge
and number two of the dust and lower
knowledge
and explains the lower knowledge who
shilla mata that what is below
on earth is existence
and what is above in heaven spirituality
i in is nothing because we don't
understand that
so to us it's nothing
creatures and creation which are
observable
revealed and felt as existence
how they say yes that's the true
existence
and the godliness that creates
this existence we call this
nothing why i'll shame
because she ain't a musa it's not
comprehend
comprehensible by us
by a creature by a creation something
that is not
comprehended amen or love he says about
that
again it's nothing i don't understand it
so
i can't relate to it so to me it's
nothing
he says now in yiddish the meaning of
this is it is not
ano it is not that he says
it is not he is
he is in existence
the energy the is is uh
you know he says look i am in existence
the way i
am in my body and everything else
and the world i live in so this energy
is not such an existence
so therefore this energy will create an
iron we call this energy
nothing
it's not him it's not him
listen the fact is he knows that the
highest is here
right the world is created so what do
you mean it's
it means that this energy that's here is
not relatable to me
i know there's something here because i
shall make the world and i exist and the
world exists
but this this force
is iron i don't relate to it i don't
understand it i know it's here
that's what he says
and being that the ayan's existence
is not like the human existence of cave
queen and iron
that's why the human the person calls
the life force that sustains him and the
world
i nothing
this is all what we call
the perspective of
below our perspective
now he goes to valdej to the perspective
from heaven the heavenly perspective
who shall a milo yes it's just the
opposite
that heaven is yes
the spirituality of is really existence
and what's below what's on earth is a
big
zero ion it's nothing and he explains
the ends of
yeshua meet the abi that what's the true
existence
aims of infinity hashem
and what you see below here what comes
from this ain't self
is a big eye and a big nothing
if everything before god is as if
nothing do you do uh
so now it's known the bay's there is
these two opinions these two
perspectives
haim belly coos goofer they are within
god himself it's not as though one is
from
you know a turkey turkey eating and one
comes from god
both come from hashem and both are real
perspectives
from the same god
when we talk about an emanation a
reflection of godliness
which is the source for the worlds who
prince da
stockton that reflection
that ha is related
and animated by what we call the lower
dash
so if that the worlds are tough smoking
they have
a place they have importance in other
words smoke
when you say that there's an energy
there's a desire order
and this gives life force to the world
that means it's interested in the world
the life force is already interested
so that life force is not das el yain
that life force itself is not
in other words the life force as
spiritual as it is
is already part of the yesh experience
not part of the ayan experience
to ain't melissa for there is no
king without a nation without subjects
the idea of of a of kingship
is that the nation is subservient to the
king
i know quiet please must be telling him
that the worlds are nullified
to god
[Music]
this is what we call the nullification
only of
the yes
existence of universe existence of of of
mathias of world is already a reality in
this
level of godliness you cannot say that
at this level of godliness
it's a nightmare if there's nothing
besides god
including the mathias the idea
the concept the notion now the notion
over here is that the world is
hushful
a king and kingship it requires subjects
so what is the what is the maximum
beetle of subjects
m
so too in creatures
that they are their level their
beetle is only bitter yes
and who sustains them the godly
energy known as the iron honey
they're nullified to the godly force
that makes them possible
avo what is their what's the maximum of
their
you humility and subservience who
between his
yes levad it's only bit laish
we'll stop here because here starts the
explanation of das el young we'll get to
that tomorrow mister sham
but this was a very important idea that
kassidis shares and they're free to
but really explained that i think pretty
good
you know uh pretty good of course good
i'm saying that he he gave us words for
it and it's important to put that
so tomorrow to sham we'll continue
everyone someone you want to say
something
yeah robert johnson could you explain a
little better i don't sure if i get it
quite
the idea that the the highest needs
bitter
the connection between the highest
because
when he says the highest needs bitter he
means he says it
that being that this highest is already
driven by the yes the the
it's like mahouse right
that level of melech already is
is not pure melech because if if without
the arm
we wouldn't have a melech so the king is
only a king because of the subjects and
that's why you can't be a king over
children
only over servants so what type of king
is the king who's a king over subjects a
king that's made by the subject so now
bring that home to khaius
when you talk about the highest if the
highest from the perspective of
is there to to make a world
that means the highest itself is already
tainted
the highest is yesh not not as a yeses
so therefore the size itself needs
brittle
because the highest itself is not pure
it's not pure
iron still still not clear smooth
from the previous ice when he talked
about it it was more from there
in the previous slice started with today
yeah no today we started speaking about
that is the slave of
a mallet you've ever met talk so there
he mentions about the idea
they told him their highest and that he
knew the people were fires
okay so so what i
what he just said what i explained is
the explanation of what he said in the
previous source why
why why is why don't you see why is that
anything else i mean now
in this ice he further developed the
idea
uh tomorrow maybe you just identify
exactly what you mean it's like a look
inside the text
i have to give another share zeitgeist
on travis everyone tomorrow have a great
day bye bye
hey guys okay you're not gonna you put
that
put that up
