Text-Based Tanya Class—Week #18

we are in the middle of chapter 10. very good we started discussing one of three personas who were introduced in chapter one they weren't explained but in chapter one we brought up the idea the talmudic concept that there are actually five subdivisions of personai there is two types of today two types of rasha and a banany so that makes five right three category but there's saddik a tonic b russia a russia b so that gets us five sub-categories anyways in chapter 10 we started to discuss which one of the three categories santa cruz always comes first yeah maybe that maybe that's it it comes first and we discussed the two types or sub-categories of tsardik tadik gomur and sadik shayna gomer otherwise known also as tzadik the toy vlay would be like the tadigamer and sadik viralloy would be like sadik shaina governor yeah very good gamer literally means complete and we discussed what is complete about the complete sadiq just refresh your memory does the incomplete saddik experience even on a subconscious level temptations or distractions from the yitzhahara no no right neither of them experience any degree of temptation okay this was this was the basic yes neutralized neutralized means it is as if it was not there completely cancelled out [Music] it's non-existent like the rat droppings in your hot dogs remember i said everybody eats a certain amount of rat droppings that the usda deems to be negligible you know one one part per billion or whatever it is so you don't know about it doesn't affect you it's not it's not unhealthy it's not unkosher it's so minimal it's just not going to affect you on any level yeah please go ahead yeah well i don't i don't want to talk about individual people we're describing here a concept i'm not going to figure out who's in this category or who's not the concept is that there's something called a tsadik who has no yay to harder i mean this is what we spoke about at length last week right oh you weren't here last week that's a good excuse we explained at length last week a tsaddick has no yates order he has no your daughter so then what's the difference between the two levels of tzadik he has no year to order and he really has no yeti so what's the difference so that's not only he has no yet to harder but actually he's disgusted by worldly temptations physical pleasure for its own sake mindless pleasure that's disgusting to him and conversely because we said the flip side of the coin of disgust is delight he reaches levels of delight in hashem that the incomplete sadiq doesn't reach so the incomplete sadiq is he tempted by what we call ra and i'm going to redefine ra again as we defined it in chapter 6 of tanya ra doesn't have to be diabolical evil ra just means selfishness just selfishness animal soul survival impulse kind of stuff does the tsadik the incomplete sadik have that stuff no no he doesn't no but because there's some tiny microscopic trace amount of it that makes it effectively non-existent however on a subtle level he will be lacking in the intensity of his capacity to delight in hashem whereas the complete sadiq experiences a blissful relationship with hashem yes if those worldly pleasures are uplifted will the tzadik yeah you know you remind me of it's a good question somebody asked grab ali melech he was uh he i think he was like his colleague his peer maybe they grew up together and he said rebellious one of the tall media margaret he was uh victor i thought maybe no no well okay so somebody asked him uh what's the difference between me and you you know we both come from the same uh background we both you know learned in the same yeshivas so you know the difference you're from a year so you make a bracha in order in order to eat an apple i eat an apple in order to make a barakah so exactly so you're asking what if the today uplifts the worldly pleasure what i'm telling you is that sadik's only interest in that worldly pleasure would be if it were to be elevated so we we reverse engineer it right right we want to go to the baseball game and then we figure out how to go right how actually i need it from my evader sasha right by the way it's not it's for the kids it's for the it's always about the kids okay i'm sorry go ahead so here's the you're asking very good you're saying it's not that sad gummer isn't engaging in pleasurable things i'll tell you something the ascetic somebody who shuns worldly pleasure because he doesn't want to get sucked into it right that's a person who is actually tempted by it so he separates him himself from it that sadik is not interested in that so even the tyler gummer is not interested in that stuff so do they experience the pleasure like if they if you put chocolate on their tongue will they taste it yeah see i don't know because first of all remember i told you last week this sonic stuff is for reference purposes so i'm not sure how practical our knowledge is of this stuff but i can tell you things like you know the altaraba for instance there's a famous story that um famous story in khabad circles at least the altera the balatanya the author of the safer that we're studying there was there was once uh a shabbos meal where all the women wanted to have discussed to prepare the meal and um so they all took different parts but then i i guess everyone thought it was their job to salt the soup so they served the soup and nobody could eat it and the altera was eating it and then he noticed that no one's eating the soup so the altar said what's wrong does the soup need salt so he didn't know that it was over salted because apparently on his level that kind of stuff just didn't register just in register salty soup not salty soup like good blood pressure it was it just so you're asking questions does the todd know that it's pleasurable can is he capable of feeling the pleasure i don't know that story seems like at least there's a type of attic that doesn't even feel it but just remember in case you're feeling sorry for the toddler oh he doesn't know what it's like to have a nice matzah ball soup remember what the whole definition of the sadducemer the whole definition of inside the gummer is his capacity for pleasure he's just his pleasure is coming from his relationship with hashem so he's yeah he's not deprived in any way shape or form we're we're deprived okay so that's where we left off last week okay now we are we're about to start yeah in the middle of the chapter of ahine madre gazoo this level meaning that sadiq gomur the incomplete sadiq mishalakis is subdivided into a myriad of degrees tens of thousands of degrees the as far as how much remnant of evil is left behind from any one of the four elemental remember we spoke about in chapter one of the end air and fire air water and earth and how they uh the humors how they represent themselves the elements how they represent themselves in the human psyche so there could be a tsa diksha ena gummer who has a tiny little smidgen of ra from one of those four elements but remember whatever amount it is it is for all practical purposes non-existent but the myriad of madregas of levels of sadducee and gummer all depend on oh this guy has one billionth of a smidgen of ra oh this guy has one trillionth of a smidgen of ra so those are the different levels of incomplete sadik .0001 percent point zero zero zero zero one one percent whatever it is okay no rounding do they round i'm not sure what digit they round off no um regarding i mean these levels are all regarding the degree of nullification so again it's it they all have one thing in common their amount of ra is bottle which means like we said before it's a trace amount that has no practical bearing but if you want to if you want to categorize these uh incomplete sadhikim they're categorized based on this and this criterion bishishim nullified one in 60 which is most casual items are nullified you know like the tip of uh the tipa tipas uh olive that falls in the cadetus busar the drop of milk this is still going right yeah the screen just went out the drop of milk that falls in the uh the pot of uh of meat so that's one in sixty a aleph or maybe it's bottle one in a thousand or a vava or one in ten thousand abduct marshall all of these allegorically speaking these are just um he's saying there are different different percentages different degrees okay and who are these different incomplete sadhik the hain heim birhina is these are the many sadiq throughout the generations in other words if you hear about sadiq generally speaking most of them are on some level of tadaksha enegamur in case you were wondering what's more common at the gamma tsariksa ainagamer no cytokine gummer is much more common within sadiq they are the the common ones now even sadiq are rare because remember we learned in the end of parikh aleph that when hashem sort of planned out history yeah that very good schustland he planted them he'd sort of uh like sprinkle that sprinkled i like that that's that's a good word like sprinkle them across the the timeline of history uh because they're so few sadiq but within sadhikam themselves who are few um the sadiquim gamurim the complete sadiquim are the few of the few and most saddikam are the not complete variety kidneys like it's brought in gamata de temnasar alfa tadike there are eighteen thousand sadiquim standing before the holy one ah however almighty if you want to know who's this complete sadiq that's the one referred to in the words of rashbe aliyah i have seen will translate it the men of ascent bine is an ascent or an elevation i've seen the men of elevation of the men of ascent the they are few the few the proud that's gomorim there are very few of them of names why does it why why is everyone hung up on names i don't know i don't know i don't know i don't know we don't know we don't have a name okay now we basically have three names for the same concept in other words we have two kinds of tsaddik and one kind of tzadik has two names and the other kind of target has three names and there's still so few of all five yeah so one kind of sadik is sadiq gomur who's also known as sadiq viralloy then the other type of sadiq is sadiq gomer also known as sadiq vittovloy and the third name now that we've just learned is ben aliyah that's synonymous with the titan government this is a third term yeah so the gummer chad vitovla or ben alia we said the man of ascent man of elevation yeah now we're gonna get into what that really means i mean that's just a translation that's just a translation yeah we're not okay so you're asking very good you're saying does he not suffer at all so the gemara that's referenced in chapter one there are different ways of understanding the terminology over there one of them is it's a discussion between make sure no and hashem actually that happened when may sherman was on har sinai so one of the ways of understanding the conversation is that we're talking about ra life bad things happen to him why do bad things happen to good people right like the famous book um but another interpretation is means he has wrath to him he has an aspect of selfishness still in his system so he's at sadiq meaning that ra has no practical bearing in his life but on microscopic trace levels it's still present and therefore where can it be seen the indirect results at least are that it diminishes his capacity to delight in hashem which that's to whom there is only good doesn't mean here like you're asking oh you know this bad thing the bad things happen to him toy blade do good things happen we're using those terms differently we're using those terms differently here yeah does it say anything about whether has to be married single or anything like that married or single no it doesn't say that's but that that's very impressive in a dating profile by the way today gummer we're looking for my daughter and there's a guy who said todd shane the gummer i told my wife maybe we'll come back to it we'll come back to it it's time to shane the gummer [Laughter] huh yeah yeah because that's all the chain of gamer there's 18 000 of those really we can come back we'll come back yeah okay fine so you like that one okay yeah so let's let's find out though a little bit so we translated benealia men of ascent men of elevation what does that mean it's just a translation but what is it really talking about so let's find out what it's really talking about okay so uh sherlock hain now this is the reason why they are called banaialia mahopkin um you know why they're called benealia well i'll tell you a reason and we're going to i'm going to tell you i'm going to um telegraph this to you ahead we're going to have two different reasons why they're called benellia so this is the first one they're called benealia because they convert ra into kedusha they take that which is selfish that which seemingly exists for its own sake and they turn it into something devoted to the service of a shop they're very good at making that transformation so they're called benealia because they elevate the mundane into the sacred in manners that i'm sure you're familiar with in our discussions from our discussions of chapters seven and eight primarily chapter seven when we spoke about the elevation of clipas niger so these benealia they're really good at that because remember they're not at risk of getting pulled into their own interests in the mundane so their only motivation like we said before the story of rib ali malek that i eat the apple in order to make the bracha in other words i want to go make a bracha because i understand that is drawing down hashem into the world so i go around i find a an apple to use as a prop so that's why that's one reason they're called menelia they affect that elevation of the mundane to the sacred like it's brought in the introduction to the zai heart to the holy zohar sheikh sharat s he wanted to enter the heavenly abode of rashbee rashmi's hey and as he was nearing he heard a voice come out and say who among you has transformed the darkness to light the time in merida if you haven't meaning until you've done that don't come here this is an exclusive vip club over here the hekel of the b this is only for those who have transformed darkness to light and bitter to sweet what does that mean they transformed darkness to light and bitter to sweet it means they take stuff that looks detached from hashem it looks like it's a creation as as opposed to creator and they show how no this thing really is an expression of the will of the creator they take the mundane object and they sanctify it by devoting it to the performance of a mitzvah right but but let's let's keep it like much more simple like sadaka let's keep it very simple tadaka for a tsad gummer the purpose of money is tzedakah his oh because remember he has no self-interest and there's nothing attractive to him about having more money oh maybe i can buy some more creature comforts that doesn't speak to him so his whole relationship with the mundane is in order to sanctify it to use it as a mitzvah to do something wholly with it why are there maximum limits why the maximum limits of tadaka 20 okay so without getting into a whole side conversation the simple answer is so that the people giving to dhaka don't turn themselves into recipients of zedaka that's the simple answer we don't want you to go so crazy with this dhaka that now we have to give youth dhaka but the complicated answer which is still part of my short answer that i'm being deliberately short so that we don't have to get derailed is that if you want to do the mitzvah dhaka it's a the maximum is a fifth but then there's beyond the mitzvah tsudaka there's tsudaka for the purification of your soul and for that there's no limit as much purification as you need okay yeah yeah well maybe when we finish this only monetary or could be other things too um cash is the best yeah it's like birthday gifts you know like the thought is nice but ultimately you know just send me the cash and i'll i'll i'll figure out the thought part on my own i'll do that yeah okay so that that's one reason why the tsadd gummer is called uh a benalia is because his whole relationship with the physical world is for the sake of elevating it and turning it from mundane to to holy okay but there's another reason why they're called benealia i told you how many reasons we're going to have how many do we have already okay so this is it this is the second one if you don't like what we have out front i'll show what we have in the back right like every jewish salesman well if you don't like what we have out front maybe i could interest you in something in the back all right let me tell you what i have in back so another reason they're called mineolio that when they do good by keeping toyota and mitzvos why do they do it what is their motivation why do they put on filling why are they dabbing do you think to get closer to the shift so then i'll one-up you and say why do they get closer to the abish there you go [Applause] it is for the need of the most high available by the way is a concept that the shallow speaks about at length service for the sake of the most high meaning who are you doing this for are you doing it for you are you doing it for a show so even to say well i'm doing it for spiritual reasons i know spiritual reasons but your spiritual reasons or hashem spiritual reasons in other words are you getting a spiritual high off of this hey that's a lot more refined and lofty than getting a high off of other things for sure no doubt about it somebody who gets a spiritual high that's very refined but on a subtle level it is self-serving on a subtle level it is self-serving so we're saying is when they do mitzvahs and where they learn toyota when they get close to hashem they don't do it because they like it which is pretty impressive because remember what we learned about them that they have this incredible pleasure in their connection to hashem and yet see i'm not impressed with the first definition of binet aliyah because this to say that the saddam gummer only seeks out the apple in order to make a bracha yeah he doesn't like apples so but this is more impressive to me because he serves hashem for hashem's benefit not for his own benefit that impresses me because i know that it's either gummer enjoys connecting to hashem so much with me i'm more impressed when i do the first one not the second one for me to seek out something physical only for the sake of hashem that's a big deal because i have the capacity to seek out physical things for my own sake i'm doing this just for god's benefit just for god's benefit right so it's called let's say the governor yeah can you be born at sadiq benalia or do you have to ascend to so we who asked that last week who asked this last week uh what was the answer last week yeah they're born in this this category yeah yeah yeah so you can be born in as is ascension you don't have to physically ascend and you don't have to take on mitzvos like a bar mitzvah age or something not sure what the question is this this persona is something that a person is born with like a person what well obviously a person has become everyone who has free choice even at gummer has free choice so they have to choose but it's like saying if if i choose to practice as much as michael jordan i'll be able to accomplish no no i mean there's being born with certain talents and not being born with those talents okay so he does it literally uh and for the high the higher than high the higher than the most high the light he says it explicitly here he does it for the sake of the most high that's what he does it for and what he doesn't do it for he says it very clearly here they kidding he doesn't do it just for the sake of cleaving to hashem this is really lofty here because doing something for the sake of cleaving to hashem i thought that's a good thing it is a good thing but we're saying the benealia they don't do mitzvahs just because it gets them close to hashem le i like the poetry here le ravis may allah to slake their spiritual thirst with which thirsts for hashem in other words they are spiritually sensitive they thirst for hashem and that thirsting for hashem like we learned about remember when we learned about the person who does chew over ava that he's so steeped in sin god forbid he feels so cut off so he starts feeling at some more and he starts feeling thirsty for hashem but we're talking about somebody who's who's totally steeped in holiness and it's still not enough for him because his capacity for spirituality is so great so he has this incredible thirst for hashem and yet when he serves hashem it's not to satiate this thirst which is why again why i'm going to repeat i'm impressed by the second definition of benealia because to say the first one that he did he elevates the mundane yeah that's the only thing he would deal with the mundane for he doesn't have those temptations but the fact that he's able to connect to hashem because of hashem's delight not because of his own delight even though his own delight is so spectacular that impresses me yeah what we're going to say that's the what it's just not the why you understand the distinction the what he is cleaving the hashem that's what is happening but it's not why he's doing it he's doing it for hashem the why is because hashem likes it so what is he doing he's cleaving to asha as opposed to the why where you'd say to some why are you doing that what do you mean why so i can cleave to hashem no no he says the what yeah i'm cleveland goshem why why so hashem can have me cleave to him yeah it's crazy yeah it's wild it is wild yeah yeah yeah it's pretty marvelous yeah yeah that's why they're sprinkled that's right but that's not the but that's not the pleasure of this world that we're talking about now that was the first thing the engaging the in the in this world [Music] okay let me let me back up the first definition of benealia describes their relationship with this world that they only get involved in worldly things in order to convert the mundane to the holy the second definition is actually talking about a totally different aspect of life not their worldly affairs but specifically their religious involvement why do they do mitzvas why do they learn torah why are they froome right these are two different things right now we're talking nafka spiritual things because listen asadik is not going to have any personal delight in physical things even doing it for hashem we're talking about things that sadik does have delight in like filling when it sonic puts on filling that's more pleasurable than any viennese table that we could eat at right that for him that's what's called the viennese table right you go to the fancy smorg right charcuterie right that's like the first kind that's the first category that's the first category the second category is when the tsadik is doing mitzvahs and he feels how pleasurable it is he's not doing it because he's getting pleasures doing it because of how much pleasure it causes hashem that's his motivation you know i gave a class thursday night which is actually i told it was for married men about marriage and i said the women should not listen to it so you heard the warning and you you went away good you no said i did not do it as reverse psychology no i i said women should not listen for a couple of reasons young married men right yeah but young is a relative term but one of the things i was talking to the men about was you know i'll say it to you guys because you learned chapter seven of time you remember in chapter seven of tanya when it's talking about sanctifying mundane things and it was talking about you know eating not for the pleasure of it and then it spoke about intimacy not to do it just for the pleasure of it remember that ever added those few words about even you know with his wife in the time of her her purity like everything is totally 100 kosher and if he does it for uh you know for for personal uh pleasure then it's unfortunately we we know what happens there with the potential of that elevation is is is squandered okay so remember that from chapter seven anyways so some of the questions that i was getting from the guys thursday night they were like oh so you're telling us that there should be no pleasure and i said first of all i don't have that power to i don't have the power to take that away you know like i even if i would even if i would make a proclamation no more pleasure it's not going to do anything i said but i said to them understand what i'm talking about here there's i didn't say exactly in these words but i don't want to get derailed again always always the temptation to get derailed but i'll sum up basically what i said to them in two hours i'll tell i'll tell you guys in in 10 seconds and you'll get it love gives love gives lust takes so you understand what i'm saying so we all understand what that means like love gives lust takes. so now but hold on a second now let's let's talk about atsadik in their intimate relationship with hashem that sadik actually has the ability we we can't even imagine such a thing but a tadik actually has the ability to lust for hashem and therefore i mean this is a very high level problem this is what we call gazunte problem but that sadik could actually seek out mitzvahs as a lustful type thing i mean it would be pretty cool that's your level of that's where your lusts are but i'm saying atsadik could seek out mitzvas as personal payoff as pleasure so what we say they're called beneath the titanic gummer that the government tandem they're called benealia because when they do engage in that very pleasurable act they're not doing it because the pleasure they receive they're doing it for the pleasure that they give right can we aspire chapter 14 get back to me yeah chapter 14 remember your question make a note and let's let's see okay question is can we aspire to some of this stuff so i said look get back through chapter 14. okay let's try to finish this chapter okay kameha kosov like it says all who are thirsty come to the water meaning he doesn't do that even though the tzadik does appreciate how thirst quenching it is to do a mitzvah to learn tata but that's not his motivation of course it's pleasurable that's not why he does it the commission is like it is explained elsewhere allah i love this i love this definition of closet hamish one who is kind to his maker with a little play on words koinoi maker is read as khan a nest or a place of nurture so who's a chosid generally translated as a pious person but literally malashin khasid a kind person one who is kind to hashem like come on you ever heard of being nice to god everyone's so busy being so reverent so religious stop a second it's a relationship be kind you think hashem is your atm and now i'm not speaking about people who want a 10-speed bike from hashem or do you want your brand new american girl doll with the debutante ball dress i'm just trying to give you something you guys can relate to there's a women's class i figure what when i say hashem's not an atm i don't just mean we're speaking to those people who want to use hashem for material payoffs right now we're speaking on an elevated level take it up a thousand notches hashem's not an atm we're speaking to those super sensitive sadiq who actually get so much pleasure from doing mitzvos we have to remind them hey is this love or is this lust are you giving or are you taking just like there's something called materialism where you covet the acquisition of material things there could be spiritual materialism where you covet the acquisition of of spiritual attainments so we're warning that sadik don't do it just because you like it we're speaking obviously again i'm reiterating we're speaking on a very very very high level okay but rather do it because hamas has be nice to hashem be kind to hashem don't be a good husband because you want to be a good husband be nice to your wife or conversely don't be a good wife because you want to be a good wife be nice to your husband so be nice to hashem i know you are a tsadik and you get high off of this stuff but that's not the point right now just be nice to hashem and watch what he calls it now oh this is similar to what you mentioned about the baba sally okay listen to unite the holy one and his shrina his presence down here in the physical world in other words what does it mean to give hashem pleasure what does it mean to give hashem what he wants well what's hashem's pleasure what does hashem want he wants a home down here why does a shimano home down here we're not going to discuss this right now we're going to discuss that at length in chapters 35 36 37 we're going to talk about it for three chapters the refinement of the physical world is going to be built on a lot of concepts that we learned about already in chapter seven when we learned about cleopas noiga and the elevation of cooper we're not getting into it right now but suffice it to say that hashem's lost his craving what he's longing and pining for is a home in the physical world so if you're in this for his pleasure not for your pleasure then when you are doing those mitzvahs which are intimate acts you're uniting with hashem even though you're at sadiq and you're getting extreme pleasure from that intimacy but your motivation is his pleasure that he gets from the intimacy which is the deer of attack the fact that the holy one is being drawn down into uniting with the sheena down here the shin is down here and holiness is is increasing in the physical world okay now watch what happens watch what happens if you are thinking half a step ahead i think you may be sensing how we're coming full circle do you hear what i'm saying how reason number two is gonna lead us back to reason number one that's what you were sensing yeah yeah you were you were a little bit ahead you were a few lines ahead okay so reason number two is going to lead us back to reason number one because reason number one was he's called benalia because he only engages in the physical world to elevate it to make the mundane holy another reason is because when he does spiritual stuff he doesn't do it to quench his own thirst for his own pleasure he does it for hashem's pleasure oh what's hashem's pleasure the sanctification of the mundane takes us back to number one but it's on hashem's terms that's right that's right that's right correct hashem having a dwelling place using mundane things for hashem's service is what makes this world a dwelling place for hashem it's not enough that hashem made the world of course he made the world but now everything in it has to be used the way he wants it to be used and that's called making him feel at home here it's not enough that hashem made the world of course he made the world it means that everything in the world that hashem made has to now be used the way he wants it to be used and when we use everything in this world the way he wants it to be used then even as it remains in its physical state it is elevated from mundane to sacred and that is called hashem having a home in this place okay so watch we have just a couple lines here kamehameha mayhem like it says in iraq muhammad it's a section of desire [Applause] this intent that we're describing is akin to the motivation or the emotions of the son who strives to take care of his mother and father the rohingyat garment whom he loves more than himself than his own soul in other words we're comparing it to filial devotion where a child does something selflessly for his mother and father not because he wants it but just to satisfy his mother and father self selfless love is there such a thing yeah yes he's saying he's saying there's such a thing and and he's saying this is the level called said the gomer okay oh don't get it don't guys don't get hung up on the marshall i don't have an extra hour to discuss it okay okay um now you guys are going to go crazy um he actually gives up his own life to redeem them commission is barbara mcmahon it's explained at length elsewhere anyways the point is let me let me make it really simple that sadik gamer when he is doing mitzvahs it's an act of marital intimacy okay so it's very hard to say that he's doing it selflessly because it's a two-way street so we kind of to help convey his motivation we transfer that relationship to a different model and we say you know what it's like pleasing your parents nobody enjoys that but you do it you know why because that's the right thing to do that's the right thing to do okay so in other words this is the beauty of the the benealia they take something that gives them incredible joy and pleasure and they don't do it because of the joy and pleasure they do it because it's the right thing so it's interesting the things that normally give everyone else pleasure meaning worldly stuff that they do as a duty the stuff that gives them pleasure you know mitzvahs that they do as hashem's pleasure those are the two definitions of an alien okay now yeah fine now in the brackets look here in the brackets the limbic both of these both of what the two reasons or definitions of benealia go up in a single stalk you know where that's from remember yasafitsadik with the uh the dreams with paris dreams the stock of uh wheat yeah so the expression they go up in a single stalk means we might say in english the two sides of the same coin these two explanations for benellia two sides of the same coin he and he spells it out he spells it out because through through refining the sparks of neuga of the neutral clipper they bring up what's called the feminine waters which is synonymous with uh with the shrine the nice and then they draw down the masculine waters which is like they were mentioning those are the waters of kindness that come down through every positive commandment they're all considered kindness and masculine waters in other words when they refine the physical world by using it for the sake of serving hashem they cause an intimate union of the feminine and masculine divine the heinous kids in other words they draw down godliness from heaven down here to earth commissioners elsewhere in other words when they use the physical world for the sake of serving hashem hashem ends up getting that which he most deeply desires his greatest pleasure well you're asking this is for all of us meaning can we all do it yes we all can do it but what's unique about tsaddikim is this is the and not only alta deacon but sadiq this is the only reason why they do it okay so the mechanics being described here are not unique to azadek anyone could do this we can all do this and
