Tanya By Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz Sec4 Chap19 Torah is the conduit to connect to the infinite light.

welcome to tonight's Tonya class we are studying Tonya we are in the last section of Tonya called eager to Kadesh and we're holding peri good tests the 19th chapter and a gerotor qodesh and as always we say that every single chapter because the foundation of mysticism has a healthy and complete theme so the theme of tonight's chapter chapter you test parakeet athena garrett echo dish is about the power of torah torah as we know is extremely powerful what does that mean what does that mean like this god is infinite God is infinite infinite the talk Frost even to comprehend what infinite means because f it means there's no end we're finite but God's infinite whatever our minds can allow us to imagine infinite energy infinite right go explain infinite you can't so God is infinite we are finite refinement we're physical people we're here we can't be there for example a lot of people want to be tonight in two places you can't be in two places at once if you're if you're a finite your physical you either here you're there you've to pick time-space we can only be a one split one space space-time this time in this etc so we're finite now but God wanted us to have a connection to him so how does finite have a connection with infinite because a finite becomes infinite it's not fun anymore and if infinite comes into the finite then it's not fine anymore it's infinite so how do you have the connection so God gave us a gift called the Torah and the Torah has both components on one hand the Torah has a component of infinite and the other hand the Torah has a component of finite what does that mean to the autorai quotes from a verse that says lead to a course alma which which a person actually saw in psalms where he would be out with the author explains the verse to mean that the one hand torah has our light and we know light resembles infinite for example light is infinite if you had the proper light you can see everything right the only physical light the spiritual light on the other hand cuz Salma it's a shield because for example the Torah speaks about physical things you learn to totally you don't learn Wow you're flying off into lala land so you sit down to learn Torah whether it's Hamish whether it's the prophets whether it's the writings whether it's Mishnah whether it's Talmud even Kabbalah and so are you dealing with physical things someone loses an object someone finds it someone stole it and someone got hurt and so on and so forth seemingly talking like physical things but through those physical things you're able to receive the godly infinite energy so Torah again has both components as the component of infinite the light part earth but it also has the component where it's caused Salma it's a vehicle that we can relate to the materialistic world and that blends the two so turret has obviously both parts in it where the finite even being gods are infinite and through Torah were able to bridge the gap so that is the power of Torah now we all know who would receive the Torah from from God but who'd God choose to give us a Torah God chose to give us a tour through Moshe Rabbeinu through Moshe we know now this chapter even though we're talking that Torah the we're gonna have a beautiful journey into the spirit in this field so let's get ourselves a review of the spirit so we'll have a frame of reference so we know generally speaking and again we're not going to go into a whole depth class or the sea road because that's a class and itself in many classes but for this clients we're gonna give an overview of the sea road and the worlds what does that mean like this God is infinite God wanted to create a finite world how do you create from infinite to finite and hidden God could've done in many ways but the way God should do it chose to do it he he created a step down process called seemed to mean were God constricted and concealed the infinite light and the first level we know in a global level was where God created the world of a solute I feel it comes from the word of eight-cell close to God so that was the first the first level which it's not infinite but then again it's not finite yet it's called the world of absolute from there God created the next world called the world of Bria there's already a creation of some sort that means there's more of a concealment and more of a very starting to create some finite reality then there's the level of its serie the world of you already now there's really not only a creation was already a formation and something's taking shape and form and then there's something which is called the world of ASEA the physical world those are the four therefore come welcome come inside those are the four levels of the way the world comes down from one level to the next for look for worlds obviously I feel being the highest breed serie and I see are being the lowest physical world welcome welcome comments are okay those are the four worlds of creation now in each one of these worlds we know God created a process called the spirit and the spirit is the way within the world within the world the light goes down from one level to the next and when it finishes that world it starts the new world in other words and the world about salute so this tense we wrote now there's different ways to count the Tennessee Road the difference is whether you count cat there as one of the spirits and if you do you don't count us or if you don't count castle it starts with Hawk mining you do count thus for this class we're gonna we're gonna take the approach that we count hokhmah so the first sphere is what hokhmah and we know hokhmah and again just a brief overview Hoffman is the first sphere what's the first bureau think if you have nothing so what's the first furor Hockman from the word is tonya explains the first the first section on tonya comes in a word of oh yeah ma wow what is it like it was nothing what is it like a flash of light that's hakama from cockman you come down to where to bina and a being already you have the details of development the details of this flash from an idea whether and whatever level we're referring to from there you go down to the sphere of das where now that you have the flash for anything you have all the details and you gotta start applying to it i mean you don't want to live in la-la land so das is again Hoffman's right oriented love story and dices entered and that's all the center spheres are very very powerful because it centers you so you take the flasher idea all the details and you start applying it you start meditating what does it mean practically and what it were has a relate to so dance is a very very important sentence hero that finishes the 3-sphere oat in the world of intellect ideas details and applying enough intellectual perspectives from there it starts the emotional she wrote and there it's the voters generally seven and there's many ways to divide it up we're going to divide up the first way is the emotional she wrote raw emotions right or we enter discuss our kindness the ability is to give and give and give and just want to do not knowing how to say no a real person of consciousness does not know how to say no now GUI is the first response is no two extremes Cazadores two extremes right and left to service already is and again they're not we're not gonna you can have a whole class about the Paris but Ferris is where it's a blend of the two on one level or it's where you put yourself in the other person's shoes and it becomes a beautiful mix and appropriate amount of yes and amantha no and that's really beauty because just saying yes is yes but it's not nice so sometimes you have to say no and sometimes saying just saying no so it's capacity mean on the other hand when there's a mix of tested and Laura when certain things yes certain things no and you have the right blend that's when you have something beautiful that's the fairest that is the world of emotion so we we spoke at the raw intellect raw emotions now intellect emotions is great but you need to make it practical so net sock hoid is so easy and mouth would goes into the package of in the in the words of calls called in the him we're over the year it could takes the intellect it takes the emotions and it brings it down into reality and again we can have a class and every one of these fee wrote all right now so comes along comes along there Rizal we all know with our resolve right from the from the Kabbalah and he says like this that we're did the process start thinking what's the highest level so let's start the highest level what's the highest world our highest world this forward let's see LaBrie at sea Razia so the highest world is the world about solutes right the highest world is the world about cenotes in the world about solute what is the highest Sphero we're having a test session on what I recall recall pop quiz what what's the highest fear we said is huh no we okay you walked in a little late so he said for this class we're not we're not counting Kesha first we're counting Kaufman's first alright so again so the highest world is absolute and the highest spirits Kaufman means any process start now when you finish the world about solute so then from the last Sphero mal hood and collectively that's ecology so mark of that package creates a new world and the new world abrir starts again la cabina das categories verse that's holy so mouth closed when that finishes womb a new world you'd zero until I'll see you at cetera okay but the highest world where it all began or everything again the infinite but we'll all began a certain level of finite reality is the highest world's world about salute and the world of cakwe okay comes now this higher than that this other one can't know in different levels again that's another the class to go through me this is heavy heavy stuff I'm just gonna give me what we need for today's class comes along that reason the reason something this that moisture of a new our teacher the one that taught us all the Torah did not in relation to the Torah did not comprehend the highest level of hakama in it salute so there is ourselves we did that we're did the moisture in and start comprehending and we're talking about in reference to God's Torah he started to comprehend from the sonia's of karma let me explain every sphere has paninis and has contain years previous is the essence of the Sphero and contain es is the external part of the serie and soon in the class we'll explain more in depth what does it mean internal external but let's leave that for soon but generally speaking you have the penis at every sphere and the oblique attorneys are every sphere just like for example every emotion everything in life has the premios and as the cutaneous for example let me have a simple example and we observe Shabbat right so in observing Shabbat and you can pick any Mitzvah for example for that matter when you observe Shabbat is the paninis of Shabbat and there's the concern is of shalat what is the sunniest of Shabbat do this don't do that you got to pray here you got to eat this and you don't do that you don't return the lights please that's the key Chinese the technicalities what's the premiers of Shabbat what's the essence of Shabbat a day of rest and you become one with God so which part of Shabbos they're both Shalvis what and you should really do both and if you want to really keep a complete Shabbos you want to get into the essence of Shabbos resting from being disconnected from all reality and connecting with the wonders of God and then observing that you have to dad some complete Chaves not complete will be just being spiritual on Shabbat and not doing any of them it's older Shabbat and God forbid regressing or doing everything and not connecting to the spirit of Shabbat which many people do salad judgments of fact so but the point is a complete Shabbos is the previous and the cutaneous so comes I recently says that moisture obey knew his comprehension in reference to the toe bring down toward to this world was not in the previous of Hockomock salud but where was it it was neat sinus the external part of the moment I'm bringing you the roars Oh are we have to understand what it means so he peeled off from the heat Sonia's from the external part of Hoffman salute I mean it's still heavy level hello we're in world of ASEA is it Syria and absolute and in there all the Sphero starting from markets all the way up to a hakama it's pretty high but his comprehension was not in the internal part of clocks but it was the external part karma now now obviously be saying he didn't company on there that means he knew even current higher than that now from that external part of hokhmah he drew down the external part of clock line to bina then into the 7c wrote knows the seven the seven emotional spirit Tesla's words Faris that's a holy soul and mal hood which actually is interesting is that the 7c Road what's a cult in Kabbalah it's actually called the air amp in the small face why is it a small face because there means small amador every meter has its meter fits cus it if it's guru of its to Paris so zero means it's a small face which from dear which will their nose think about it it let's figure out for a second the me don't have security Ferriss right Nets a whole you sold right left centered yes knows compassion right a blend so the reason says look in the Torah everything in if you study the Torah it's either gonna say kosher or trace right or pure impure what's the source knows since the key Sonia's we're learning kosher non kosher pure impure do this don't do that that's the that's the what we're learning about but if you trace the back to its source what's the source think about it anytime says kosher anytime says pure anytime it says do something we are coming from everything's from God it's the magic answer God is my god and good is always the magic answer but where's the kind word aspect from the me note from the right oriented think about custom means yes its culture its pure do it life is great that's kind of impressive but what happens in the Torah when it says don't do this it's impure etc punishment and rebuke that's coming from the left side so everything gets traced back to the source so moisture barrier against comprehension was the external part of karma which one down to bina that's all the ideas on details went down through the seven me note which from dear again we have the torii that we have which is rooted bank into the middle and the Sphero now but the part that moisture remain who had a pointed our regional a Mimi's thicker relationship was knocked off when we said already but wait Hawk becomes them to be not to the seventy notes but specifically in the last for me those net sock hoid your side in mouth hood for the last for me don't and that's what I reason says that's why it's actually called no Lloyd hokhmah what is Novell mean for its falling down the internal part of hokhmah is the essence the external the part that falls down into the be none too into the spirit and into net ecology sold Mount Hood and and the and is the after Rick quotes and he says we look in the tour where it's gone said to moshe renal mostly and told god what must rely on God most rating tells God I want to see your face right what God tell him huh God said very Easter sorry right you're gonna see behind opana in my face you're not gonna see it says so straight in the Torah so the author explains right that was what does that mean very simple there's something just like that reason says then he was able to see the higher I the external part of Cox moments he looked and he wasn't able to see the premiers of Kaufman Attila that's what everybody's all serves me other explain so okay comes ol dr. Bernie asked a very simple question whoa we know who is the greatest prophet who's the greatest prophets moshe arenas the greatest prophet so we took that the greatest prophet face the face of God whoa it's pretty heavy so we're saying he did not comprehend the premiers of Kaka mo buxie loads now let's look in lay our results teachings that resolves the other Kabbalist teachings they teach about Cockrum about salutes and they even toe teacher at what's higher-income all that she looked kept there uh but sealed is even higher and other than contra and so on and so forth they teach how much higher levels so what does that mean moisture obey knew the greatest prophet which is not it's not a joke it's not an exaggeration it's the truth came to God face to face he was not able to comprehend them bring down the level of connivance he looked from an eternal he had the external part however that reason was able to come hurry than him get the question powerful question so the author explains like this powerful idea that the original and all the other candalas have they study they use their brain what's the highest power we have we ever brain so they used their kok-long they used their bina their das they meditated and they meditated on the greatest powers of gods now what is the Alpha explain very simple let's say I'm gonna give you a Michelle Torres I'm gonna give you an example let's say you walk into a wedding hall you have been with lately with weddings right you want the wedding hall and we all are ears right it is and you walk in and the music is blasting but not only is a blasting they rented these big speakers these amplifiers and it's so loud that literally it's pushing you out of the room and you're getting a headache you don't even enjoying the music you know I'm doing it it's way too loud why because you're not gonna be too loud and the answer is very simple cuz we have ears where we have the ears and our ear can only handle so much so what do you do you want to stay in the room you see everyone's dancing and having a good time you want to stay there and just can handle it so what do you have to do you put in earplugs you put in earplugs and then fact that the wedding they were giving out earplugs right you put in air plugs also you stuff in these ear plugs that knock out 80% of the sound 80% of the sound all of a sudden I like this music I like the music and not only just not games actually knocks at 80% of all the drums and all the beats I love it let me ask a question like this you just knocked out 80% of the music and you loved it when you had a hundred percent you couldn't handle it so let me ask you simple where are you appreciate where are you appreciating the music when you walked in and you had a hundred percent or now you only have 20 percent of it when you have 20 percent hello what is that all about you have a hundred percent you couldn't handle it when you have twenty percent twenty percent of it you love it what does that mean your ozl says very simple doctor explain is very simple the profits how did they meditate understand God they use their mind the mind will only take you so far in depth that means just like when you went to that wedding hall with the 80% plugged up because you had the 20% hearing ability you're able to enjoy the music hello you're missing out the whole thing every beat every drum every symbol right every note you missing the richness but you're loving it why because you're able to handle it now the author explains that same thing with with the Kabbalist the other still volatility insert customer Tillis guess why because what tools are they using they were using ear hearing hearing is a very very finite limited way of comprehending so that comprehension was very limited and therefore yeah they can go very hard therefore they can sit there for hours and enjoy the music however their alter explains that moisture of a new we we don't know how did he related on by hearing or by seeing huh Moisture Baena what no moisture being a saw God face to face moisture bein you didn't have any earplugs moisture and didn't have any air plugs he had the real deal he walked into the wedding hall no ear plugs guess what so then he walked till the overt old abandoned told the speaker's know if you're wearing ear plugs you can stand right in front of the band because he's really not so even though it looks like you're standing you're not setting from the venue blocked out eighty percent of the of the of the of the of the music moisture a nano earplugs the royal deal he saw God face to face now when you see golfers that couldn't could a human being see God face to face now he couldn't see more than most people can see but because he's going in raw he's going in with no filters so the author explains yes exactly you can't how do you compare to to the prophets they were winning eighty percent plugged out they sure they can talk about custom of our zilla's and yes they're getting some kind of like a camouflage packaged up diluted version of it okay but moisture in there was no there was no packaging there was no filters he was able to see God face to face and therefore could ye stand in front the speaker they blow you a blown-out today for the hakama vaccine Louis he couldn't touch because it would totally blow him up he only got from the external part of hokhmah which had to be diluted down into vena which had to go into the spirit and then when it went into the 7/3 road which a raw heavy emotions when it finally got down to the last floor and that's a hurry you said mom cause he was able to stand there no filter and really appreciate it so moisture of a nose connection to the Smee road and that's why you saw Michaels as a whole different reality and then the camel is two different worlds now so therefore what they re but what the reason says that moisture or anyone who stood from the external part of Hoffman that's really the external part of hakama but again the way you have to be they looted down to be none to their emotions until it came down to not to call you so my house now so one might think one second moisture beta only gave us a limited version of the Torah it got old they looted out because he had to step back because it was too powerful so this always says as follows and this is very important there's always like this the Torah itself that means Amish prophets writings mission account the Torah itself is sourced we're not in the external part of Hoffman in the internal part haha it's God's Torah the Torah itself is sourced and gotten within the essence of God in Kaka Moffett salute however for us humans to walk in and comprehend it guess what could we get it straight to the source real an adulterer no no no exactly that's why that's why that's why many times you see in the hummus it says Kree exit what does that mean the way it's written and the way you say it I mean suddenly could be written one way and certain another way you always like what's that all about write it the way it should be said or say III suppose to be written like what's this Korean symbol that you seen that all the commerce you've seen that a lot mcComish you don't referring to it's as you read it this way but it's but it's written another way what is that all about so the author explains very simple the way it's written is the way it's written mean to say is that's the way it's source back in hum of absolute highest level no filters the problems we read it this is Lee right why cuz we can't comprehend that we can handle it just like you can't go into a band which is totally blowing out the room without any filters so therefore when we read it we read it in a way where it's tone down we can appreciate it so the same thing also the Torah is source the Torah itself when you study the Torah what are you studying right now the Torah the weight sourced in the highest level cosmic salute the internal part of Hoffman Sealand however when it comes to comprehension you can only have up to comprehend everything 20% no you possibly more the only able comprehend way goes back to starting at him that's called Jamaa hood so he goes in the emotions bina and the way it's sourced in the in the external part of karma what others like this those like this to clarify we mentioned before that every Sphero has the internal part of the syria and has the external part of the syria what does that mean take any serie hokhmah das crescent all ten any details throughout the internal part of the serie it's true to its source it's 100% true blue it's raw it's complete not nothing package nothing mister it's 100 I'm complete cuz it's connected to its source the essence of every sphere is connected to its source now because it's connected source it's too powerful of us to touch to touch to appreciate to connect there's just two valve of us so there's something called the concern is the external part of the Sphero what's the external part of the Sphero the part that allows it to come down that we can connect to it it's like good so you want to eat something which is piping hot you woke up with your hand touch a hot pop even the it burnt so there's a club for a reason in the kitchen right you ladies know this is a club and the reason why need a glove for pick it up cuz you're gonna burn yourself so you need the glove to grab it that's the same idea also you want the thing that's in there but you can't touch it without a glove so we want the essence of the Sphero but not every essence here we can touch it's too powerful we need to go come on to the external part of the sphere and that allows us to benefit from it in other words like this take for example we all have a neshama you don't want to solve a godly soul the godly soul that we have is what as part of God now the godly soul that we have that's part of God how do we character the godly soul how do you we all have a godly soul how do you connect to the godly soul one yes true that's Torah but how do you connect to your godly soul oh very good very good very good during this yes the way you connect to you godly soul there's five ways to connect t-value soul connect and Express connect and express your godly soul the deepest the deepest level the deepest level you can actually value soul it's very simple use your mind think that thought intellect is the difference between thought and intellect when you use your intellect you connect to you godly soul in other words if I ask you a question and you give me an impulse reaction that's thankfully not even godly soul if you want to know what you godly soul has to say say let me think about it could you push a button and stop thinking no it doesn't work that way you can push a button and stop feeling and that's dangerous because knock on teen valleys all very good chance so the way to connect and to express what's from your neshama is by intellect by thinking that's why for anyone I've asked you a question the safest way if you wanna know what ganas as I said let me think about it sometimes it takes a minute which is very rare usually takes a couple hours maybe a day or two and what happens is as you the more you think about the you're gonna cut with it we think about you study Torah you just read it no you gotta think I mean as you use your brain if that's when you plug me into you golly so that's how you connect and that's how you express it that's the deepest way now from there goes to your emotions you have a godly idea and then guess what happens if you ever got for example we're now in the month of Adar right so our neshama know this is the month about that but when you start thinking and starting about the month of Adar now you're connecting your neshama to the month of Adar and then you express it what happens as you meditate and study about it use your intellect what I'm still motions side answer yeah yeah right it's the month of Adar you get excited about it then as you get excited about it then you start thinking about it before was intellect now just Mashable thoughts right thoughts about how you want to celebrate how you're gonna celebrate what you're gonna do and sort of thoughts thoughts about a dollar then you call your friend or your spouse your children your parents your if people the community you talk about it and then you actually start moving some dancing right so in other words the neshamah is the depth of you it goes from a process we intellect emotions the thoughts speech in action which one is closest to your Shama intellect or action which one intellect that's the first is first the first step away intellect action is the furthest but the fact is we're living in this physical world and the way to connect to summers is through doing physical things yeah so knows the the the essence of the Sphero sometimes we can touch but the external pause when we touch so if you want to be happy and you study up being happy and you don't start dancing this it's there's a disconnect it's not flowing right so you need to flow down to the world of action so in other words so it's not about just keeping it the it's about bringing it all the way down and this is the power of motion brain of doctor explains moisture obey knew was able to ascend to the highest level that a human can ascend in terms of seeing not like stuffing years and hearing like the Kabbalist he'd ever the highest level the highest level that that word starts the process of revealing is the key train is as we said of the sphere on that but he couldn't reach the internal part the internal part of that sphere is not meant to be revealed the tour is connected to it but that part we cannot comprehend it and Moshe Rangers job was to bring down from the external part of cosmo into bina into - into the emotions down into this physical world why as we see naively hawkman the purposes for it to fall down into the physical world up to doing mitzvahs and as we know for example Talman says what's greater studying Torah doing myths phones and what's the resolution that it goes back and forth and the end is that Talmud is greater why could of course your doom its votes so the net effect really it's the action then that affects the action Talmud is greater because will cause you to do midsole but at the end you need to do them it's phones not only that I'm gonna show it to you with the alt recessive it's very very powerful and very profound you ready for this the after offer quotes from their result and their result says straight Kabbalah every single person comes down to this world with a mission er a shopping list on the notes on the shopping list not the fish for solace maybe they're to actually fight there and like in a really a sea away the true it's a sublist right okay but what's although it is on the simplest what if what it what's on your list what's your shopping list from you when you come down to this world you're born into this world you were given a shopping list what's on the shopping list come on you guys are smart true 613 mitzvot yeah 613 now some of them you do many times and some of them you get the opportunity once you like them to do it and then this 248 par threes are kinda negative comes along memories are the real ourselves guess what every person comes down and has to get a check by every one of those so what happens you live your whole life eighty on 120 years you're the whole life and you got checks on 612 of them that's pretty good pretty good right you're missing one you know what that retail says guess what come back down come back down again because you got to do that one more so there's you think I'll do it tomorrow hello you're gonna come back why come back to the whole classes get it on the first time right get it done the first time right why now why is that so important you have to get a check in each one because the main reason why we're down here is what to do mitts vote we study and we're happy but the goal is do the mid sort and if and when we do this what we're done our mission is over and we have to come back and if not we come back so the job of moisture beta was to bring down the highest level of intellect that's possible for human to comprehend bring it down into the world of action so that we can do our mitts votes now after we finished off it's actually an addendum to this chapter and he says for example we see that there's different levels of energy so for example there's levels of energy that's created by our thoughts we have thoughts that's more level of energy there's speech right it's another level of energy this action another level of energy and then he says that for example even in thought there's multiple levels of the thought energy and thought because for example there's thought that based on actions there's thought based on speech and is thought that's based on thought everything creates energy and everything receives energy there's nothing that just happens by itself so the other is what happens on person so based on that everything requires specific energy and which is here is a profound idea based on we all know that point that there's no such thing as multitasking you can toggle between two things but multitasking doesn't exist either you're thinking or you're talking or you're doing so the optimist says why you find people they can think and do something else at the same time or talk something else they same time the answer is no it's not really true why because if you're thinking about something how are you talking about that the only reason why you're talking or doing it because you had that energy of that speech or that action already before it existed the only thing was that it didn't spill out in reality but everything has to come from somewhere everything comes from somewhere and the example he gives is that for example just like we said that moisture Bain who brought it down to he had an in-depth connection to the last force field and that's a whole you saw mal quit and that causes the creation in the new world so everything comes from the end of the line of the sphere and that's called you some Apple and that brings it down into reality in this world okay so in other words you see like this this chapter is a beautiful chapter for many reasons many reasons number one is it shows you the power of Torah that the power of Torah in itself is extremely powerful it goes up to the essence of holcomb of absolute so every time you're studying Torah you are connecting to what literally to the essence of hakama in the world about she looks very powerful number two is not only that you're connecting there but we have the power to comprehend maybe not necessarily that highest level but we can bring down from the ha close to the highest level in in reality from the external part of hawkmoth Rubina through emotions into this physical world and by bringing the energy into this physical world we're able to fulfill our mission in this world and our mission in this world is to make sure do all the mitzvahs and if we do all the nets or guess what will be done with our mission and we want to come back and more importantly will cause the God godly light to come down to this world and we'll all merit for all of us to finish our mission and then we can have obviously the Messiah coming so it's a great chapter and I think when you study this chapter it gives you a whole different appreciation of studying Torah because you really need studying Torah you connecting to the greatest greatest greatest powerful source but also it allows you to focus that when you're studying Torah you're actually bringing down God's light literally into the physical world and specifically to Torah supposed to inspire you not to stay in abstract world but to actually do MIT's volt means if you studying Torah it should inspire you to do mitzvahs how many myths votes and which myth salt and the answer is all in that's not
