Maamar Vkibel 1927 #9 Two Perspectives are both right Is your faith true?

a deep opinion of siddhis uh real see this you know real everything's real but this is uh intricacies we're saying yeah there's there's an expression of cup which literally means you have to hold your head you got to pay attention and focus so what are we talking about the river said over here that has they both refer to the two types of bitter humility subservience that we're talking about in this mimer at this point which is called das el yang and das the supernal das the supernal knowledge the supernal perspective the das is the lower perspective the human perspective and not just the human perspective rather the perspective of hashem as god already accepts and wants humans and the and the universe okay so everything everything is included in that and and it's worthwhile getting these terms while we're learning him here because they are scattered throughout this left and right so once you get it you get it so again we're talking about come down what and up and down yeah so das el yang means from god's perspective as hashem is is is yet a pre universe in other words what is his interest his interest is in himself in the godhead in hakodesh he doesn't yet take seriously i'm using i'm using the best words i could use are the best words that come to mind to express the idea he doesn't take seriously the world the universe you know why because in that perspective there is no world there's only god what's what is hashem's perspective known as das the lower perspective it's when hashem already concedes and wants and already a universe to be even if it hasn't yet been formed but in notion an idea he's already accepted the idea it's like before you make the investment you come to a place to say i am ready to make the investment whatever it is right even before you make the investment and guess what then it when it comes to payable mama's when it comes in actuality to make the investment you might change your mind because something comes up but before you can even think about making the investment it had the idea you hear this listen to the idea of investment has to sit well with you so in english we translated many times you know ego and existence but i i want to really give you what the way hasidis understands the idea yes means the beginning the formation of reality is not the beginning of reality the notion of reality and there's a difference between the notion of reality and the beginning of reality and i'm using the muscle of investment to explain both to do the investment bipole in actuality that's like the yesh to before that you need to have the mitsiyut the existence that there is such an idea called investment that that in its own right in its own right that is an entity so maybe can be translated in english as the entity i mean i like the word notion but entity notion so from the perspective the yes already has some place from the das one second one second from the das el young perspective the yes doesn't have a place all that has a place is the mathias yes yoni so maybe what you talk maybe just the more modern day english kind of like brainstorming before you actually you know go through with the idea you brainstorm i mean again in in a certain scenario that probably be right but again brainstorming is already part of uh uh of an existence of a yes but yeah if you compare i guess brainstorming to what comes late later you could use that mushroom so so so so this is one one introduction that you need to know what's when we're learning the what we're learning now number two we look at the word yes words that are thrown around by the way it didn't begin at hasidis almost says that he's ignorant yeshuaian began much before that before in early jewish writings of philosophy you'll find the term yeshmiah not just philosophy and maybe even we could say that the way kabbalah understood yeshmiah is the opposite of the way the philosophers understood that but that's another shear and another discussion i don't want to go into that now but the way hasidis understands yeshumiyan is based on the kabbalistic tradition of the arizo and what does he teach what does he teach he teaches that there is a force and we call this force ayan what's the hebrew meaning of the word iron nothing garnished this iron although we we identify it as nothing is everything why is it everything because without the iron there would never be a yes yes may i in the yes coming from the iron so sit this asks the question how could that be you're telling me it's nothing and yet you're telling me that without the iron may i in the yes wouldn't be and the only reason why the yes is there is because it comes mayan in english ex nila which really is a misnomer be like what does that mean you know greek greek words yes so yes something may i so this is what see this the uh from the out to that but they also speak about how are we to understand the iron and just for a moment i want to i want to just say a few more things about this because it's relevant to to all of siddhas and that is that when we talk about yeshumiyan there is two aspects to yeshmiah there is the way the ion is because of bakirov to the yesh close and attracted to the esh and at the very same time there is the iron the way the iron is [Music] distant from the yesh and this is in a way an oxymoron this is a a steeda mineo bay is the ion interested in the ash or the ion is not interesting yes make up your mind comes about citizen says both are true that the interest is for the to be a yes but at the very same time god wants that the yes should know that it comes may i in you're nothing what i mean you're nothing rabbi i have run towards you all of a sudden it's still in the slating i mentioned the word they accept him how many books did you write rabbi twersky 90 books 60 books at the time when he said this i think so he said no i didn't write 60 books this and they said wow you wrote 60 books he said i wrote one book in 60 different ways what is the book that he wrote i'm telling you from reading some of his books and probably you guys you all read some of his books it's wonderful that he has self-esteem everything that he did and everything he speaks about from out from from alcohol isn't the 12-step program and abuse and all the issues that he covered throughout his life which were tremendous a tremendous amount they all stem from one that could self-esteem what is self-esteem so you look into his book generation to generation and other some of his works you see self-esteem is god esteem at least that's the way i understand it based on siddhas a healthy self-esteem is because hashem wants you to be a healthy person with self-esteem so your esteem is god's esteem yes ma'am the yesh is not just in his formation from ayan the yesh is ayan you hear that there's a difference hillary saying the yesh comes from the i in but the yesh is a yesh or to say since you come from the iron what are you really you are iron you're nothing not nothing in a negative sense nothing in the best scenario what do you mean i'm nothing i'm i'm an expression of godliness i'm an agent of hashem so therefore i have to get out and do and i have to accomplish and i have to achieve because i am the ultimate of iron of godliness this is part of this discussion although you're not going to see these words in the rhymer but when you think and and this by the way you know we talk about his blunderness what i just told you is this is is an example of his bonanus what i just said if you take this and you think about it before you dive and while you're dabbing you are in you're in the midst of what's called a chabad meditation this is meditation and this is only the beginning you know you delve your mind deeply into these ideas and and you understand that at a certain point as your mind is under understands this and it is immersed in this it loses its kind of own um own recipe own own flavor and it becomes absorbed in the content of the meditation and when it's a godly meditation the godliness and the meditation overwhelms and over overpowers the brain and you become part of that godly experience and what's the result of that avi as the altar ever said and i don't want your paradise supernal paradise i don't want your lower paradise all i want is you you and you that's the ultimate and if you hear that and that ever said this many times and he always broke down when he said this because there ever was a jew a yid who lived with this he worked on this this was his this was his bread and butter so for him it wasn't just like for me saying it over repeating it for him he lived it so when you live it it's like how can you even talk you know and the answer is i want you to talk okay finish with my sermon i hope it was helpful to you and it's recorded so you can always re-listen to it so let's now learn inside page 201 um let's learn from the beginning of the chapter we'll go we'll go over it a little quickly because we learned that yesterday we say this that we've been talking about faith as it is understood and none of this faith as it's expressed through what we call the pervading energy or faith as it's mainly unrelated to through the disabled calamium is two levels of nullification it doesn't say kale they are one god that says they oh two opinions based data is darcelian there's two levels of das two levels of knowledge what we call das el yoin number one and number two in the lower dos taste in the lower level of da's who it is the following shalom yesh three expressions that creatures and creations are observable need him from the word riya the niggling for the word god revealed when the um and fell in a real existence yes that's the perspective we're here we're not going anywhere so what how do we perceive god's worldly cause and the god of this that's that that creates us we call that nothing why i'll shame because shayna music it's not comprehensible to us we have no idea what it is you know we know about a good bed and we know about all the dash meals and all the things in the world and a little learning happening once in a while but to say that we understand what the iron is forget it the hanive the creature the creature ezekiel namaste something that he doesn't understand or he met all of he says about that again it's nothing because it's not in my realm of understanding [Music] its meaning is not that it he he is the vitality is an energy other different than his and than who he is not like me yes me iron i the yes work and operate in a certain way and am i in a certain way the force that gives me the highest a9 i in is very different it's not my type of uh lifestyle and existence because when the energy is here from our perspective we relate to it since this energy is not like our existence and therefore he calls this is from the perspective known as we stop here now goes to the sec the higher level of das we called us yes where is the true yes yoni the myla by hashem la mata and everything below that's a real zero a real ion infinite god is the true existence yes two new two new words when they're put together that have a specific meaning which means yes true yes right we are not true yes who is true yes true existence god and therefore from god perspective of das el yain what's below is i in nothing because everything in comparison to hakodesh barco killer is like nothing don't think that these two aspects are just the way rabbi dolphins dressed them up before to understand it in our life but guess what in the godhead itself in a locus you have two modes of operation both are true and he explains in the godly and emanation and the godly energy which is the energy that gives root source and and and and place for worlds who prince das that's what i told you the beginning shmuel that we all call dastak the level of the lycus of highest of godly energy that already concedes that there is a world and i want a world that's dastardly and since this level in godliness is already a source for the worlds types of so then the worlds make an impact in this level of godliness this level of godliness is not bereft of the issues of the worlds but rather the issues of the worlds touch it impact it and make a difference and he brings the the words that's brought further the melech below um for this level of energy we apply the rule a king is not a king unless he has subjects so when you say that join us when you say that you're automatically saying that the subjects make an impact in the king and without the subjects he is not a king so what does that level of kingship consist of that the subjects are subordinate to the king now if you take this muscle you bring it back to our discussion right the worlds the talent are subservient to god so what's the nimshiel of the subjects that are nullified to the king someone we had here a muscle and a nimbus what would you say is the nimsho to the muscle yeah the what's what's the name so to the arm the you mean now he's bringing he wants to apply it to a nimsho to what he's discussing here what what would be the nimshu in this case the created worlds are like the subjects to the king look inside he says it right he says the created worlds are subservient to god just as the subjects know that they have a king and they're subjected to the king that's the nimsho the moral from the marshal avo who bitly what level what what level yoni of beetle of subservience is that only only obliteration of ego of self lie by penis beethoven's you see here so here on the line over here you see the two words that brings bitter yes and something called bitter bermudsiyut and that ebba says in that scenario of the question of the bit of the created worlds to the to the to the to the to the energy it's not that it has complete obliteration that the entity doesn't exist that the idea doesn't exist no it's just that the fact doesn't exist give me i want to give you now a muscle that i use outside of what it says here i might be brought another my muram the king calls in the minister measures the minister of art schmooze the minister of accounting and and the rest you guys are transportation and everyone has a job for the king he calls us all in and he says fellas you know you guys have been uh really uh fighting with each other because you want more money for your department and i understand you need this transportation and accounting and finance and and art and culture and everyone wants them you know sounds familiar what's going on in the knesset right anyway they make up and so he says to them you're all working for me and i am the king and i'm the boss and guess what i have room for all of you so stop bickering fighting amongst each other and they all stand and they say yes your honor we will honor you and at the time at the time they really mean it they walk out of the door and they're back to killing each other and and bickering and fighting why so siddha says because they're bitter while they were standing before the king was not a bitter the macias it was only a bitter big it's not that they they rid themselves of tr of tr of thinking i am transportation i am finance i am education no everyone in front of the king still held on to the i what that that eyes associated with and they never let go of the eye what they let go of is we're going to try to work it out in a way that we can live together that's yesh that's bitter yes so yes as far as they they they they'll try to work together but what happens when they leave the room and the king is not there and they don't feel the kingdom they don't see the king they revert back to their eye and each one is different than the other one transportation education or finance because the mathias was never bottled why was the mathias why was the entity the idea the notion not not not subservient why didn't they lose that because the the realm of a king of and his ministers is such that the king endorses the subjects and the king wants the subjects and the king wants three different departments that's the way this king set it up so taking it back to our reminder when we talk about the lower level of of subservience of us it's not just that in the results are different the results begin in the force in the mindset of the king the mindset of the king determines what will be later before we go further did you follow my muscle yeah you sure i don't want you to shake your head yeah and and this muscle was a muscle to to to express the idea the difference between bitter hayes and bitter and number one and number two to show that the difference of the two types of bitter which we i call the result begins in in in the in the one who sets the goal sets the result so in our case hashem has two modes simultaneous of operation one perspective is i give the idea existence it's a i and i've kind of entrapped myself into that because that's what i want to do the world needs and their reasons for it so that's called that is that what we would call practice is an everything on i'm both we're talking about the or the highest what type of highest is it is it a highest is it is it a highest of god an energy of god that lends itself to existence and therefore existence makes an impact on it as he says the loss of the mimer hare oil the created worlds take up room in the godhead from this perspective or do we say no let's let's try another muscle another muscle i like i'm standing on fifth avenue 47th street i'm 17 16 70 years old i'm putting on i'm trying to put on film with eden it's 1976-77 the rebbe says go out so on friday when we had you know some time not during the learning we would go out and i was a young a younger bachelor i would get onto a mitzvah tank with the older buffering and they went into manhattan they had permission to park thousands of people are walking and most of them are jewish of course and here is the open field to put on film with eden excuse me sir would you like to put on film or are you jewish whatever we said at the time and one person looks at me and says i can't i'd love to i can't because i i'm rushing to a meeting you know and he go and he goes further i ask another person the same question and what does he do he doesn't even acknowledge me he just walks further which of these two pers people are closer to putting on filling the one who totally ignores me or the one who engages and says i can't the guy that stopped the guy that stopped well yes and though because the guy that stopped could be he's being polite but he really ain't interested in feeling and the guy that didn't stop is scared he's uncomfortable so he ignores and if i could get that the one who ignored to stop he would put on phil and quicker than the guy that smiled at me and and i sit him down and he'll say that's a bunch of nonsense so what do i see from the muscle but again i'm not saying it's always this way but if we if it is this way sometimes that we think about it this way in this in this scenario as a muscle the elikus the godliness that already gives a a place for a world for created worlds is already impacted even though it's still you know a reflection in the language of the mimer or nomination of god let's go back to the text anyway you guys will think about it you have shoppers to meditate i've just given you so much food for meditation with shabbos that you could stay down for three hours shabbos and you still want to be finished what don't we usually dive in three hours in travis how have i i don't mean just saying the words of sitting your shoe while the rabbi sermonizes i mean diving with your talos over your head going to two o'clock and you tell your wife and you and your guests that we start the miele too because from twelve to two i'm dominique that's what we mean hillary you tell i don't mean you tell you have such a wife that appreciates that you come home two o'clock because you've been the school diving into hashem pouring out your heart okay ah the kid that comes afterwards to my great uncle that mental foot of us would say like this boils itself over into i'm sorry learning when you learn like a gossip it boils itself over it results in a hasidic davening and boils itself over in a hasidic of a bring him but you only if you go at 12 o'clock right away for the booze in the church it ain't a hasidic for brengan you have to first learn to see this for a few hours in the morning and then you have to dive in for another few hours and then you start for bringing oh then it's a different fabregan it's a whole different um attitude anyway hallelujah we would do this hell of ai this is why he didn't get shiva in the good days anyway don't worry what do you think we'll see if we'll do what do you think we see is going to come we're going to play more golf when she comes we're going to learn to see this for several hours we're going to dub him for several hours we're going to meditate and then we're going to prank and we're going to have such wives children of friends that will say i want to be part of it let's go up and he says [Music] from the perspective of faith the government and also from the perspective of knowledge and comprehension how to embattling the i know the key those created beings are subservient to the godly force avoid although they're subservient they still are an entity and all that they are the vatican themselves all that they give give up of themselves is just the [Music] here it's the force of god that transcends the world's behind nobody so i say me and next phase two will do this is referring to the other itself to the infinite aspect of god as god is savage called omen the sham is not only that the yesh is subservient but the the the the entity the notion the idea is also nullified to god they could come because all are nullified and like nothing before god what do we mean all not just all of yes all of mathias all of entity and idea is they are before him and they're considered killokame as though they're not before him we talk about the hashems already is um designated and defined by the the subject though illumination meaning he repeats what he said before the created worlds have an impact raksha but only that they are subservient like in the muscle that i gave you in front of the king to say we'll make peace and we won't fight with each other moving there munna hubito it's understood that emunah is subservience humility bitter where moon never based moderates and having the faith in both expressions of god of mammals the beetle if the elliot that transcends the worlds the created beings he says very nice but in general peripheral it's in it it's it's makif only brings the thief on the threshold of the tunnel he calls god god help me break it and steal how can that be only he's calling god and he's asking god you you believe in god you don't believe you know god doesn't want you to steal behind in this cools he believes in the general way nearly close to who he is that god sustains it gives by muscle to all of his creatures and he gives bread to allah [Music] what does he ask of god there should be matzolia successful in his thievery big name [Music] is distant it's not inside you it's outside of you i believe i believe i believe you believe well show me that you believe and if you do something that's contrary to god you don't really believe you believe externally superficially but deep inside you don't believe you can't and this is so important let me just finish the paragraph and he says for if his faith would shine and illuminate in an inner way in an eternal way how can he do contrary to god's will to desecrate the words of god blessed be he and the answer is because it could be an oxymoron that can be two opposites and this is the way life is we believe we believe believe you believe if you believe in something you act based on that belief and you do or you don't do it depends on the situation but if you say you believe and then you do country you don't really believe you're a munna is makif so the thief asks hashem hashem i i need to survive i have a family i need money i don't have it i'm gonna rob and steal now i know that you can make everything happen so i want you i want you to do me a favor please make sure no one catches me so do you dismiss that or do you say it's true so siddhis khabad says that both are true from the external perspective it's true both can coexist from a premium perspective both cannot coexist yes so isn't there i don't know if it's a gemara that i learned going back 25 years but it talks about basically it says that hashem will grant his his request even though even though it's against the torah because every person every person that asks will get according to his word so no it's so i forgot it took me 25 years ago but i remember something so no something like that i i i don't i don't recall the rest of the gomorrah so i can't tell you if it's the same gemara but it's it sounds it sounds like like that's it because i mean this this gamba nakari is brought into gomorrah whether and it says retina that language i don't recall you know and uh we we're concluding now but i'm saying it's um this isn't you know we always try to bring it home you know it this is real life what we just learned here it's so real is our moon [Music] and and that is why you know see them i saw i saw elders see them and and i heard them and if i blame with them and i ah not i i was there to be macabre and this was a constant assessment that they did and the conclusion was always if you heard a real husset not i'm not there yet i'm not there yet because to to to really you know live this way is like the bene the benign of tanya and it's an avoider constantly but but but don't despair delta is not saying this to make us feel how distant we are from being a bane in the but how close we are right contrary to my pediatrician friend in california who i was learning tanya with and after 12 broke him he stopped coming and he said to him i asked him why he said i'll never be obeying any so this this study is a waste of time and the answer is it's not that way you won't be mr banany maybe but in in for a moment for a minute for a week for a day there'll be times when you will express benny-like attitudes if you have come to that place in your life and then you're a minute bane in the yes jonasson [Applause] listen you don't have yeah steal get a letter from some bunny get a driver or drive and collect money and you don't have money so what are you trying to say that that the rabbi gave you i'm not following what's your point yeah the point is that i had the gospel but i could have gone around stealing but but i thought to have him in her show that there's another way of getting money you get a letter from the lab right you still drive and you go there and you're just not ready let us just steal uh that that's for sure but there's also a third way if you would have asked this rabbi here there's a third way make a kaylee you know do something and and and david will send the broker but anyway you know what i'm saying so hashem the in the good days everyone listen tonight what's the famous taj mythnas you gotta go in and if nikhnas then you'll have simcha if you stand like this as a spectator and a fabrengan a spectator sport you ain't having simcha you're having yesh you're having yourself say in a moment from our children and grandchildren that we should have good health real yiddish good health and davises should take away this terrible epidemic and gomarnu finished and we'll all return to our normal situation and even better yo tertov better and we'll dance at everyone's simchas with only good health and happiness and nakas and we will continue with hashem learning sunday morning same time same channel have a great shabbos bye-bye thank you thank you thank you hold the stuff to everybody
