chapter xxviii in the fourth section of the jaracaca dish we we are we are the middle of this chapter where are we exactly 20 I'm sorry 27 the beer not 28 27 okay so Hillel yesterday you were out we learnt a very important rule that he brings from the Zohar is or says it's a TKO the spotter did some kinda spot on a tonic that passes on he's found all over in all the worlds more so than his like lifetime and this this saying of the Zohar the holy Tsar is not one that Habad created but rather the zora Kaddish I'm sure by Allah is the originator of the statement and the importance of the statement is that once real life is not limited created by the physical and this is very important for each and every one of us and as a Torah belief that life is not about the physical but rather life is about the spiritual and and you should know that this idea also has its place in understanding the immortality of immortality of the soul you know the early Jewish from the early philosophers Plato and Aristotle lon Jewish philosophers they believe the once this so once the the body of a person passes away there's no remnant whatsoever that's it you had your chance and it's over and our holy Taylor disagrees via manly with that attitude what does it tell you to say that there is an assemble and the soul is that what simplify is the body and when the body passes on the soul remains the total opposite of basic philosophy as presented by for example Plato and Aristotle so when we talk about the thirteen principles of belief your Gimbel a gray emunah thirteen principles you get mo thirty principles according to Maimonides acquainted Rambam if a person doesn't believe in one even just one of the 30 principles the Rambam basically says the person is a heretic and a pakoras you can't say for example I believe in in the the unity of God and Hashem is all and everything but in theas I'm a sim in the belief that there'll be a day when the body will be resurrected piata may seem and the physical body that passed away will stand up I don't believe that I don't believe that according to the Rambam you could be as from as you are and daven and shake and bake and and cry and you'll Kippur and you are a heretic you're not the clearest because you haven't accepted all of the thirteen principles you can't make a split and say this principle I accept and this principle I reject according to the Rambam it doesn't work that way it's either All or Nothing either you accept that's what called the you gimbal ikura and Mona the 13 mainstay a Kareem you know them it carries there is a tree and there is the root of the tree for the tree to grow properly and eventually to give good free fruit you have to have a strong foundation and if the foundation is weak or is messed up the tree ultimately will grow sideways and ugly and ultimately the fruit will be no good the Rambam says there are thirteen principles each of these principles are the foundation of Yiddish guides of Judaism of Torah what are one of the 30 principles that I believe on the Imam in bear mulish leymah I believe complete and whole faith but bo-sama sheer for the coming of the Messiah of the Messiah another one of the 13 principles is I believe with complete faith that one day the body will be resurrected that's right it just rise from the earth and that's why everyone knows there is one opinion one tradition that people after 120 they try it to have him so buried they give instructions that they should be buried in Eretz Israel because why should they have to go through all the tunnels than the helos from China and Africa and America and go through all the tunnels till they end up in the tunnel somewhere in Eretz Israel and then get up they might as well be very close to the base of meters and they'll get they'll have a less of a ride less than a schlep but the point is right no transportation necessary less transportation but the point is the point is guys that this is an acre this is an e-card this isn't a puffle it isn't ancillary this is a primary belief of Judaism now what we're learning here you've quotes the Zohar the holy so art that it's a big despot that it's hard to go passes on it's found more soul on earth after his passing that he is that he was before his passing this seems to be an advantage this seems to be a puzzle a riddle how could that be so the outer that but the ballot on Yehia gives us the insight and he says you know how it could be because your view of of us a person in general and Sadiq in particular needs to be needs to be correct and if you look at them as the physical then you're right once the physical finishes it's over even though Yogi Berra said it ain't over till it's over but at some point it's over right you know how long could you already party after the Super Bowl you can drink beer and eat popcorn and get shrunk and then the next day have a hangover but there comes a time when you got to go back to work enough ready with the party the Super Bowl is over again the demarlo when it comes to the shamah says thou forever the soul the neshamah never never was impacted by the happenings of the goof the unity on that means that is like this yes there is sin and there is mitzvos of Eros and mitzvahs and there is dirt and smuts that you that if you eat and coffee you drink coffee and you have ketchup and you eat and you make stains on your shirt you need to wash your shirt there's no question about it that if you soil your clothing spiritually you need to have a cleansing and the cleansing ain't fun because when you go into the wash machine cycle it bangs you around from the right and the left and that's why one of the reasons by the way we say Kaddish the 11 months that we say Kaddish for our soul is to create a protective coat around the soul so that it has less pain from the purification process that's one of the reasons but nevertheless the essence of the soul wasn't touched by sin and that's why we have the idea of about teshuva what's the idea about the Shiva about the Shiva means that although outwardly I did this and I did that but deep down my soul was pure the entire time and now I am bringing my body and my consciousness back to my real self my real self being pure ie the BAL teshuva so the altar never says here that since and by at sadiq everything I've just said is so much more a hundredfold because it's addicts life is he says three things and buna yireh and ever the entire essence of its addict is not about gosh meais not a bad health not about money it's not about pleasure it's about one thing only you know the thing is it's about having faith in God fear for God and love for God that is the classification of exotic and I can told you yesterday I don't repeat it again at length just briefly for the new students that if you want to know someone's a real Sadiq or not you have you asked yourself that question you look at their their their their Emunah their Europe and their other and if those three are in sync with Hashem at the highest level they're at Sadiq up to some degree so the outer Deborah says and this written this letter was written to who to the students of the Mendel Vitebsk it who just lost their Rebbe in 1788 and were brokenhearted and said out their ever says yes you're right your rebel was taken and there is Shiva and there is a twelve-months and there is cognition there is Mathias and it's and it is sad from that perspective but the truth is he says that your Rebbe is more alive now than he before because before he was contained and restricted by the gas from use by the physical limitations and now is not and now his doors are open and accessible 24/7 whereas before you had to make an appointment to speak with him and you had to come to his base Madras to see him and now if you identify with exotic you can have the sadhaks entire being his real being the spirituality the message he stands for 24/7 and you should know that this is this is I'm not saying this is easy it's not easy right it's much easier we see each other now at least on the screen and we hear each other but when you don't hear and you don't see it the physicality of the human being is such that the physicality creates in us a blockage and that's the whole problem the whole issue the whole problem is how to avoid the physical limitations being a blockage and the spiritual reality that's what we're doing here on earth in our entire life or said another way we need to spiritualize the physical we need to take the gaseous and make of the gaseous roughness because the roughness is the truth now let's look inside and continue learning and we are we are we are over here let's go back to be your ally now okay he look good could you guys show everybody we did it's the it's the part to to the letter 27 which begins with beer I don't know I assume you are slo-mo so Melissa you're slow Masseria Biddeford nice to meet you ISA okay everyone have it now let's look inside boy was he back to place good Charlotte Shalom Shalom Shalom East episodic are those we find in the Holy so our that's a Takaya despot they're exotic that has passed on if stock as the cooler ailment is found in all the worlds yeah team Ibaka yoyi more than during his lifetime the tariff Lahav in we must understand pain that way let me sell join him this statement is correct when we're addressing the spiritual worlds if stopped up to the bar boys of summer he's found more so there when he ascends there after his passing right after his passing where is slammin where is the neshamah after the passing in the interim I am in the world in the holy worlds the spiritual worlds so when the czar says that it's Alex to show me after he passes has found more in all the worlds I can understand that he found more in the spiritual worlds because that's that it is passed away continuing inside I will Balaam has a but a six-pack against it how is he found more so after his passing in this world where you walk on the street you hold up and you have to put on a coat in the number and yen and when it's cold how can we say that the topic is found more on earth now that he was during his lifetime that's the question of the ballot Anya very straightforward and simple the yesh Lima here comes his answer I'll there as magic about the I Miami Rahzel this the answer to this question says the ballot Anya is similar to what I heard from my teachers regarding another statement of the Cazale just for the record when the out never says hello key bounty who's referring to boss who is he referring to the rocket so either the market or actually does not mental of it tips because remember he was the successor to the maggot after the mangas passing a police and and and mother passed away 1773 and a mental victim scared of enough left there to throne 1777 so those four years motion what's the issue right right right right so those four years from 70 73 to 77 t7 were were the the Rebbe the Rebbe the leader of the Hasidic movement in valina in that section of white Russia was who Daniel it was the Rebbe Menachem Mendel the Vitebsk aired the pretty hard it's the one road to say for pre-orders so sometimes when the alternate assess cobalt II it refers to him too but usually it means the market and by the way it's only brought and Tania I think two or three times it's not as though the Altair ever uses the language about the orphan it's very seldom let's continue what did he what did he receive let's see what he learned from his remi the shauvik hi him Hawkeye the sages say because I'll say a departed Sadiq has left life shove a client to all the living meanie um that absurd ik when he leaves this world he doesn't leave the people who identified with him with gosh meais he leaves them something called life what type of life does he leave leave let's see what he says further can either as it's known should i outside a numb high in / sodium the life of its addict is not a fleshly life it's not besar km Hibernian the life of a Sadiq is spiritual while the santak is alive his life is roughness shame again he repeats a Munna one faith the unit to fear or the other and love and that's what he leaves his people how do we know these three things he brings three verses keep a moon ox if by a unit says that Sadiq double no security that Sadiq lives by his faith so Slimer what do we see from this verse what is the life of exotic in this verse it's a Munna that sadek the Emunah to the moon now say yeah yeah number two of the year regarding fear or the verse says see if you know systemic I am the all of a sham leads to life clearly it's the yireh and finally OVI achieved with regarding loving hashem it says raided seductive offensive jinsuk I am the one who pursues seduction pheasant kindness and benevolence will find life so these three tsukimiya Hooda prove that what is life Emunah yireh and other the hesita level and benevolence has it signifies ever because what's the core of of present love when you love something or someone you do has it if you don't love them but you don't love it you don't do has it so from here we see that faith in God and or and love of a sham are always to as high life so when the good mother says right when the good mother says shauvik high in the hall high that the SAVAK leaves over high in life for all the living what do we mean what does the times what is the tactic left over for us and munna yireh and other three things okay let's continue fisher leash me the same way before they were very long and these three attributes are present in every world I'll do my Milo's up to the highest of levels now call the pianist - Milo's enemies or proportionate to the level of the world that we're talking about Szell Szell one higher than the other but that if he were all by way of cause and effect oh can either in other words at any level each world serves as an antecedent which means a cause to the lesser world effect which it brings into being I don't want to go into it a glance but basically there's a concept there's a concept called ela Volk wasn't effect right when you use your mind you say who you have a result a media and attribute and emotion so the say who is the cause we call that the Eli and the Ahlul is the result the Middle's that come from the seho the way you behave in the way you feel as a result of understanding something that's the effect coming from the course so the alter never says here that this scenario of ill Ivalo is relevant over here the way you relate to Hashem regarding the issues of faith and belief in God no of that will bring to a certain fear and love for God the more you understand and the more you believe the deeper and more powerful your year and other is the less you understand and the less you believe then your faith and love is weaker so we see the scenario of lol oh and it's true in every level that's what we just said let's continue faheen a be isotonic I up they are Dumber now while the topic was alive on earth how you shudders millet me they say Luba tells K live in a bushel ahem these three attributes these three issues of faith and fear and love were contained in their vessel and garment what does that mean flame up it means they were limited yes I understand that these three elements are the makeup of exotic but while the person is on earth including the Tzadik they're controlled by the Kaylee by the vessel by the physical right if you if you have too much of any of the three it shatters the vessel you know the Gemara says elsewhere are born in fulness of the part there's four rabbis four sages went into paradise into the Garden of Eden three of them had a bad result only Rabbi Akiva came out not damaged one of them burnt up one of them cracked up you know why because when they went in there they were they went in with a search of ecstasy and not wanting to come back down they just wanted to be with God so they they ended up being of God but it destroyed them they physically couldn't handle it maybe Akiva it says Nicholas machello he entered peacefully that's why yotsuba shell and it came out peacefully what does it mean it means that his intent when he went in was to create show up and we have our shalom in the class here what is shell I might have said many times Charlaine takes the right and the left and makes a bit peaceful peacefulness right because you know we say every morning and vomiting it three times a day I used to show them bedroom of God makes peace in the heavens who's fighting have you ever asked yourself the question when you die of it who's fighting over here that we need God to make peace the answer is there's three angels there's me her obsessed to Ames McCoy Sasha my Michael Michael the angel of water has said Gabrielle is sour shell cavora fire H Gabriel and there are at odds with each other fighting with each other one wants only kindness and the other one says no no no you got to take into consideration what they did then give all right you got to limit them and they're always adding at each other's necks their throats they're fighting with each other comes along a Sherman says guys both of you are only angels and you work for me and I'm telling you I have room for both of you I need you both therefore don't think that that you're the only game in town I'm telling you that I need both Isis selling the dream of so Hashem makes peace between the two angels what do we see we see that that angels are also angels also have a message and I've gone to different directions and it takes hashem oseh sholom referring to God a fan makes Shalom so the idea of Shalom is to bring together the right of the left and create unity so why do I say this because we're learning here that why the topic was on earth these three me those were limited by their vessel meaning the experience that one hand with the savage faith and fear and love for God was perceived by each and every one of us in a different way for us and that's why you have people arguing with each other sar doing because one group says this is what it's addict wanted and the other group says no this would sound the quant it because the Kaylee the vessel lends itself for interpretation and differences between a smoke and gosh me on the plane of the physical place she preaches nephesh actua the goof eye which means it's when the soul the nefesh of the SAVAK is bound to the body the hook tell me the ænima problem and during his lifetime his students receive only a reflection of these attributes the sebum and array during the lifetime of its addict but as what we receive an exotic is only what's called a high aura a reflection as if array a glimpse our mayor who threw cane is a that radiates beyond the vessel beyond its eyelids body are they the Buddha of my service evaporation to the statics holy utterances and his thoughts so the child its utterance is what it sounded says and what it sounded thinks reveal to a minor degree a little bit of what's going down really inside the Lahaina murasa that's why the sages say hello Shane Adam I'm Adele - yeah boy that one cannot come to the depth of his master's teaching until the passage of 40 years you know that volume shut up after 40 years you say aha that's what my Rebbe meant now I got it took it 40 years why because those those 40 years everything was contained and limited after 40 years you had what we call expensive consciousness your conscious became expanded and now you say aha I got it you wake up now oh wow Wow boy was I walking in the fog and I thought my child ik did this and said this and was this and I have it all wrong Slimer it took you 40 years because only after 40 years you have what's called Boas half of us had ass extension of the mind or better said expanses the expanded consciousness and you're able to see it in a very different way Abulafia Patito so this is all this is all during this lifetime I have a laugh appetito so everybody f3 passes on the fishermen spotted in penis on a fish initiative BK them since the nefesh that part of the soul that we call nefesh there are five parts of the soul nephesh rua neshama higher and you Heda the acronym for those five is Narong higher neuron starts with an oni nephesh Lucrezia is Rou after the second owners the sharma high is higher and and yah Heda so he says that after that expands the the nefesh aspect of the soul remains we're in the grave in the grave and it's separated from the rua which comprises these three attributes and after is passing it is in the garden evading the three attributes are now unbounded by the body and are in there in GaN Eden a spiritual place whose atmosphere surrounds every individual you see my friends we've been making this mistake go out on the street of beth-shemesh nassima where's GaN Eden you know they're gonna tell you you tell you tell me what they're gonna tell you what is gonna do boss where's gonna be yeah some will say Bnei Brak other people will say Johannesburg the point is the point is everyone's gonna say it's elsewhere what we're learning today is what we're learning today Hillel is something you must this you're finding out the secret to the recipe today it's right around you it's not elsewhere it's all yes it's all it's around you it's a consciousness that's around you and even you access it or you don't if you don't access it it's in Johannesburg or Bnei Brak if you answer Syd it's right around you says the out there that be your tremendous uh truest insight that the spiritual space whose atmosphere surrounds every individual in this world that's that's the gun Aidan of every individual and the question is whether you access it but the point being that the sadiq after is passing his nephesh is separated from the Rua that's the other aspect of the soul the nefesh is found in the in the grave that's why another another very important the fundamental idea comes from this when you go to the gravesite that I shooter by your height or another Sadiq you're not playing praying to a stone you're praying to a body that's physically passed away and buried but who has there the nefesh every single day until machines coming in the resurrection of the Dead the nefesh aspect of that Sadiq hovers around to get the TAVR and is there yes Moshe hello could you repeat you can repeat the question I didn't hear it yeah I mean that's not I mean that's not the reason we don't cremate the reason we don't cremate this because Hashem says I gave you the body and I take it it's mine it's not yours I gave you alone I loaned your body so you know you're stealing if you cremate you're stealing something from me that's you know but but but spiritually the idea that the body still has an association with the soul is true but they add the literal reason why we don't cremate is because it's not yours to to tamper with and by the way that that applies not only for cremation but even for making an unnecessary operation and and and and type of permanent damage permanent either improvement or damage to the body is how logically a very serious issue and and we deal with it you know if the person passes on the fabric odisha will gather any and all parts or aspects that come from the body because everything of the body is holy anyway let's continue the faith of therefore or Yahoo call a quarter veil of the cobble hey look at pinis rufus toboggan ad says doubt that ever whoever is close to the Tzadik can receive a part of his ruin his spirit which is in the garden of eating that means the actual part of the very essence of these attributes as opposed to a mirror flat reflection remember what we learned earlier is that all we have from the side that during his lifetime Hillel is a reflection now after his piercing that there was a separation between the nefesh and the Ruhr and the where is the Ruach of it sadiq the Spirit it's in GaN Eden and where isn't that where is gonna eaten all around you so if you ident find connect you can't really can get from the roar of the tragic the the faith and the love and the fear which is limitless compared to the way it was during the lifetime of exotic before I can tell you when I make sure you lost me I lost you know right right oh yeah let's see what he says hi available Kaylee you who the why because the rock of exotic is now not contained within the vessel the life of coulda smokin gasoline or is it on the plane it's not in the physical plane space but it's in GaN Eden which as as was explained it's to be found within this world as well how do we know this he brings up us out can I be my mother as odd as we learn from the saying of the sages the teaching of the sages a blessed memory Yaakov Avila regarding Yaakov Jacob all of a show of blessed memory significance even begun Aidan the ghazal say it's cause out snot so our stuff Kabbalah that considers the hazael say that when he went into the room the Garden of Eden GaN Eden entered with him you imagine the door opens up of the base metal sure in incomes in Yaakov a noble sudden you smell GaN Eden because by Yaakov it was alive when he came to be blessed by his father Yitzhak right chellamma Yaakov when he went went went when you he came right Yaakov came to be blessed he comes into the room and it's Rashi brings over there that the smell of GaN Eden was in the room when he walked into his father the paint causes the safer servomotors so it's written in the safe for kotas are my morals share avid an aid in his pockets of Culloden that the atmosphere of the Garden of Eden envelops every individual when the shaman the zoo and in this atmosphere are recorded comics evasive the Bulova even potato five eight of them are all the good thoughts and utterances of pain and divine worship so in other words when when when when one identifies with GaN Eden all the good things that you did throughout the your lifetime is felt is real so if we identify with the sadiq after his passing we smell his gun Adan and we have his gun Adan so what do we have his faith in God his love in his fear and we have it in his way not an hour away which is limitless limited okay he said no no not just at the time of the Padilla its from the patina on but it's not that it's not automatic that it's it's any turn after the Patera if you identify with it it's not like okay I'm if you're walking in darkness and you're and you're totally out of it you ain't smelling no gun Adan you're gonna smell a bad smell what we need to say is that if you're sensitive in other what he's saying is that you should know that that Sabich is giving you the opportunity if you identify properly to get the full plate of his faith love of fear but it still takes our activity and if we're messed up and we're elsewhere we ain't gonna smell anything Oh smell very bad you know so but the answer to your question is it's from the time of the Patera and on so that's why when you go to the kick-butt again and what we're learning today I think one of the solution is that it doesn't warrant it doesn't require you to only go to a caver you could sit in your dining room and your living room on the can and if you relate to what that sadek wants and what the psychic was all about you can have that sensation of donating right there in your living room now going to the cave there is another important experience god forbid and I'm making light of it because the nefesh you see here we're talking about I want you guys to be clear we're talking about Rua GaN Eden is associated with what we call the ruin of the soul the caver is associated with the nefesh of the soul and it's two different parts to the soul so you can't say I'll just do what I want to have the other both are important what the difference is is another discussion but the fact is that we learned today that there is the nephesh which hovers over the sadi at the caver so the nefesh is not in your dining room the living room it's the raw aspect of the Tzadik that found that it's where the GaN Eden of the sadiq is and that is wherever you make the topic be okay Everett will continue tomorrow more zaga zone
