Text-Based Tanya Class—Week #27

okay what chapter are we on sweet 16. sweet 16. okay wow is that a jewish thing i don't think it's a jewish thing it's a tanya thing okay fine so you remember last week test valve chapter 15 we're speaking about two levels of betany right yes yes okay and we said that this guy who's the second level baitini called leia a sherloya valde he didn't even serve hashem what he's he's not obeying him no he is a maiden so why didn't he didn't sir why is he called he didn't serve because he doesn't by default there's no extra effort and then remember the alternative says the end of that chapter what defines effort he very very briefly he says look if you want to be if you want it to be considered effort either you have to do one of two things either you have to meditate on hashem until you create some feelings that will push you to do the right thing or you have to tap into your innate love of hashem which is already installed in your jewish soul but either way you have to do something and if you don't do anything if you're able to manage mainly behaviors without doing either of those two things it's called the shallower you didn't even serve hashem right right you're just saying right or you remember no you remember okay so let's talk more about the first of those two methods are these methods for what are they doing what are these methods for what are they doing we have to struggle they they are struggle but what do they do what do they accomplish meditation well one is meditation yeah but what do they both do that's too general you're always going to be right when you say that that is true it takes us out of category of a charley or other puts us into uh olivia not evan what i'm going for is both of these are methods for creating emotions and which okay the one that's meditation the first one is meditation the second one is not meditation but they both do the same thing as far as creating emotions and a cher loyavalde he doesn't have to create any emotions because there's so little resistance for him in maintaining pain any behavior that he just does it without any emotion but but both of these methods are methods for this is what i want you to know it's all i care that you know right now both of these methods are methods for creating emotion love of hashem and of hashem are the two main emotions yeah and then everything else is a derivative thereof fine here is the main rule about how a benny he has to rule over the nature of the left ventricle of his heart ali by way of using making use of the light of hashem which shines upon his godly soul which is in his brain the leash light allah and thereby he rules over the heart this is review that that sentence is review he's just explaining the baini is obeying me because he uses the maya shout out if he doesn't use the words my childhood but you're familiar with that terminology he uses the light of hashem which shines in the brain to overpower the desires which are in the heart specifically the left ventricle we're not going to re-explain left ventricle right ventricle we've done all that okay the point is he controls his passions as animal passions by using his godly soul mind over heart okay all right kisha miss bane meditates in his in his brain about the greatness of the infinite one blessed is he and when he meditates what happens lahailid maybe not say he gives birth from his beena to being as a particular faculty within the intellect creative thinking elaborative thinking so he gives birth from his beena a spirit of knowledge of hashem and awe of hashem in his mind which is sufficient to provide motivation to go away from evil to not do what would what you you need to not do did i say whether it's of a biblical origin or a rabbinical origin even something that is purely a rabbinic legislation what people god forbid sometimes rationalizes being of less importance but his uh his motivation will be sufficient to keep him away from any of that stuff the average hashem and then also he'll have love of god see the first was we're talking about the awe of god that keeps him away from doing bad and then also there's the love of god believable your money in the right ventricle of his heart became a mitzvah that's the motivation to cleave to hashem by doing hashem's mitzvahs the the the positive mitzvahs both biblical and rabbinical the talmud negative coulomb and that includes first and foremost the obligation to constantly study torah okay so basically what we described person meditates and that meditation gives birth to emotions we mentioned we mentioned ava you mentioned the year first actually keeps you from not going where you ought not go the love pushes you to go where you need to go that's what we read so far all right the yes at all cake and furthermore soda lay the cloud slab he has to know a major rule about the service of hashem that the bane and him do shigan sagas that even if your mental capacity is not enough to give birth to real love of hashem in a revealed way in your heart she alibaba buy a crispy you're not able to get that love flaming like a fire the profits behind me but you can't get yourself to feel this tangible visceral love of hashem iraq but rather all you're able to muster is a hidden or latent love that remains in your brain and in the recesses of your heart meaning as opposed to the revealed aspects of the heart so it's not shooting out it's not overt it's sort of subtle low-key emotions hardly even emotions so even if that is the case he's going to tell us even if that is the case that he's not able to generate intensely powerful emotions and here by the way he mentions why is he unable because first he just stated the fact he's unable to to get the emotions really roaring but why is that the case the hacible is then the reason for this he says as known to the people who study kabbalah the reason for this is because his brain and his nephew soul levels are in a state of being uh like a like a fetal state he calls it ibr pregnancy like a fetus which is bahalim which is concealed within the tuna within the understanding and it's not in a state of being born and being revealed in other words you have to imagine this guy he's meditating he's trying to create emotions and his emotions are remaining like a little fetus who's kicking around in the womb but it just won't get born it won't come out and become a person so he's able to create some type of emotion but it's just not intense it's not revealed it's not overt now if i were to tell you there's a guy who meditates and the emotions that he feels for hashem are very intense in fact he feels those emotions even more acutely than he feels his emotions about anything else in the world and i described such a person what would you assume about that person as far as being uh being anita russia what i just described person meditates and his emotions are so intense that he feels more intense emotion about hashem than he does about anyone or anything in the world sadik okay good this guy though we're describing right now is only abani so he is meditating because he's not a sherloya vader he is meditating he is over he is he's working but even when he does the work the level of intensity of the emotions just isn't that extreme we said it's like a fetus compared to a birthed baby you're following it's not that hard you're following yeah okay so he says you should know that even if this is the case remember what he said you should know even if this is the case the alternate is always trying to like stay one step ahead of you guys because he knows you're perfectionists and you're always going to give up and you'll be like oh there's no point anymore i meditated and it didn't make me want to fly well you know sometimes you meditate it's just a little little simmer not even like a little crock pot like a little you can barely see the ball you guys make uh you ever make chocolate in a crock pot yeah like tiny little it's not boom boom boom rolling boil you know what i'm talking about okay so sometimes it's like that sometimes it's like that so he says he's describing more what is the condition of this guy his heart understands with the spirit of hawkman being that's in his brain abdullah understands at least the concept that everything is nothing before hashem relatively speaking everything is nothing before hashem a cheryl kane and that therefore see that's just a philosophical statement compared to the infinite everything's like nothing okay fine but then therefore i share alkane that therefore what should be the emotional conclusion from that idea it is fitting for hashem that every soul should yearn should pine to just be subsumed in him now it doesn't mean that i'm actually yearning for that but i appreciate the concept that it would be appropriate to yearn for that you understand the distinction i'm not making a claim that that's the result of my meditation when i meditate on the fact that hashem is infinite everything in front of hashem is like nothing it doesn't actually produce in me an intense longing to be subsumed within his everythingness i'm not claiming that that's my emotional reaction however at least i do appreciate the fact that that would be a that would be an appropriate thing to want okay hashem is hashem is really it would be an appropriate reaction that his soul should want to leave its to shed its mortal coil to use the shakespearean language yeah well this whatever it's i think it's hamlet okay anyways yeah he wants to leave behind his his embodiment no actually he doesn't want to he realizes that he should want to he still likes ice cream so why would you leave the world when there's a when there's ice cream in the world even if he's not going to eat it but it's comforting to know it's there in case he does need it what uh mint chocolate chip but he realizes that mint chocolate chip is finite and hashem is infinite so in comparison you know who's going to win hashem so it's not that his his his reaction to hashem actually is that visceral but he appreciates intellectually that that should be his feeling okay all right um he appreciates also that the fact that the soul is trapped in the body is sad it's sad for the soul to be trapped in the body the soul wants to leave the body and be bound up with hashem now that's not what he's really feeling but he he realizes that he he realizes that that would be a sensible thing to see it's sadiq feel it's wannabe no because he learned tanya and he understands that he should be happy being abani okay so you asked your question is this all remains in the intellectual level not entirely intellectual but certainly not emotional in the pure sense of emotion in other words think about it like this i'm going to use my own language here this is not the altadebus language but between an idea and a feeling so those are two different worlds an idea like i can tell you ideas that i don't even agree with let alone like right so i doesn't just because i have an idea doesn't mean i like the idea and it could be i even disliked the idea but i could act like i could well not today because of the internet algorithms but once upon a time somebody could articulate intelligently the argument of their opponent today we can't do that because we're all emotional we just dismiss every well they're dumb right everyone's dumb if they don't if they don't agree with me i don't even agree with me because i don't even know why i hold what i hold i just know that that's what our team does go team but once upon a time before the internet algorithms turn anyone's brains into cream of wheat you could have an idea and you didn't have to necessarily like the idea you just you understand the idea intellectually i appreciate the argument i don't agree with it but i understand it right so that's intellect emotion is the opposite emotion is once you're emotionally tied to something then it's like don't confuse me with the facts i have an emotional investment already right and that by the way that's not necessarily a bad thing if that's how you feel about hashem that's a good thing i got myself to a point where i'm emotionally connected to hashem and now even if i go through let's say some type of trial where i'm being tested where i don't understand why something why do good things happen to bad people why the bad things happen to good people right i won't be disturbed but i might be disturbed but i'm not going to be confused by it because i'm already emotionally committed okay so that's like the two different worlds intellect and emotion between intellect and emotion there's sort of like a quasi-state which in my english this is not how the altadeba calls it i'm gonna call it an opinion it's a clumsy translation not even a translation but i'll call it an opinion meaning it's not a pure objective fact and it's not already like a an emotion but it's sort of like a little bit more nuanced how can i say it there's a little more personal investment in it than just a cold hard fact but it's not exactly as intense as a real emotion so it's not like i'm walking around excited about this but if you would ask me about this idea i would have a personal opinion about the idea so if you would ask me is hashem infinite and i would have a purely cold objective reaction yes hashem is infinite and therefore therefore nothing is just an information just a piece of information that i know that i hold in my head okay that's called purely intellectual then the on the other extreme is i walk around like i'm in love just floating in cloud9 whoa what why are you so happy oh because i'm with hashem and i love hashem so much and hashem loves me so much okay that's a toddic that's clearly it went all the way to the emotional realm and then in between that would be a guy who'd be like i don't feel that intensity of emotion that the sadiq feels but definitely my connection to this idea is more personal than just a cold hard fact that has no personal uh bearing on me so you understand what i'm saying it's not purely intellectual but it certainly isn't the full-fledged emotion either yes yes i i don't know okay maybe we didn't say this clearly enough this is ex well mind over heart you learned chapter three you learned the ten faculties of the soul and you remember you learned yeah the ten faculties is all chapter three and you learned there are three intellectual faculties and seven emotional faculties and that the three emotional of the three intellectual factors faculties are called the parents and the seven emotional faculties are called the children so you know where babies come from children have to come from parents so emotions have to come from intellect they don't materialize out of nowhere so yes this is a process emotions do arise from intellect what we're describing here is that and that's why he used the metaphor earlier of a fetus as opposed to a born baby there's some degree of the process going on but not the full culmination of it a sadiq would be he meditated and his i has met the ideas he meditated on became born as living breathing emotions this guy it's like he's pregnant you know he doesn't have his baby yet but he's like pregnant with it hopefully ultimately but not necessarily not necessarily and this is what the alternative is saying that even if it will just stay in that in between state well i don't want to give away what he's about to say but he's he's addressing somebody who's never going to reach that level of emotional intensity for hashem that the tsadik reaches okay so where do we get to okay he's still describing the idea that this bananee is meditating on and and appreciating i'll call it appreciating like yeah i appreciate it not going crazy head over heels for it but i appreciate i get it yeah it's a good thing okay so what is he thinking about he's thinking about the last martial interview that no thought can grasp hashem this potato of mitzvah except like we said at the end of pedigree the only way to grasp hashem is through tater mitzvas commercial merchants like the metaphor of hugging the king when the king is clothed you don't say i'm hugging the king's shirt you say i'm hugging the king even though the king is wearing a shirt so when hashem is invested in tata and mitzvahs and you're doing the toyota mitzvahs that's that's hashem hashem within taylor mitsus the point is what he's meditating on here is the idea that of course it is proper and fitting to yearn for hashem and one who yearns for hashem should then follow that up by going and doing taylor mitzvahs because that's the way to get hashem so to speak vila zais yasalahan lahabke accordingly according to this little meditation it is fitting to go try to hug hashem with your whole heart and with your whole soul and your whole might the hainu what does that mean the hug hashem it's to do all 613 commandments in your thought speech in action which means to try to understand tita according to your capacity like we explained when he focuses on this idea in a deep way in the depths of his heart and in his brain uh shoving in his mouth and his heart are aligned that means he's not lying he really believes it meaning he follows it up with action that means he actually follows it up by doing what he's supposed to do what he decided to do in his heart and in his mind the hindu lies potatoes that means he actually is constantly learning with his mouth regenia diamond also his hands are shattered and his other limbs makima mitzvah the rest of his body is also doing the mitzvahs according to what he understands is the proper thing is related etymologically to the word bina bina means understanding you could call it an understanding i call it an appreciation technically more subjective than a cold hard fact but not as intense and fiery as a full-fledged emotion it's what i was calling clumsily before an opinion he calls it here atvuna so this tvna this appreciation that yes it is fitting it is appropriate it does make sense to want to connect to hashem all the time and to make hashem our only priority in life yes i'm not claiming hashem is my only priority but i know that he should be not i know i feel how how intensely do i feel not that intensely but enough enough to what and here's the the main question enough to what if indeed we're talking about abandoning here not just to do something no he did meditate and he created a truna and the tuna is enough enough to what to to maintain behavioral perfection it's enough motivation to maintain the behavioral perfection appreciation of hashem what else hashem is infinite everything else is nothing that's what he's meditating on if he would be a tsadic that meditation would cause him intense emotions but he's not he's only obeying me and therefore the meditation gives him like a little crock-pot simmering okay nothing too explosive but it's enough enough to what enough to serve as motivation to get the job done okay you're saying if he meditates and he creates the emotion then he stops how long will it last usually it stops the day before the day after the warranty expires is usually whether it depends it depends there's no there's no yeah it's very subjective it varies obviously very easily everyone that was one of the i'm sorry there's another class for in him okay you could stay cause you already started with us you can continue okay okay all right um so listen what he says this appreciation that's how i'm going to translate it appreciation invests itself in his action speech thought of torah mitzvahs liaison is making the highest for god finla parker to serve as brains and vitality and wings to lift them aloft in other words his tv his appreciation of hashem serves as sort of like a motor to push his mitzvahs to a higher level and that's really the main point here the main point is the relationship between this tavuna and his thought speech and action because when we talk about the inner life of the banani we're not describing something that that that's that intense like it's addict so the way we describe it is in terms of its ability to produce thought speech in action now a sherloy avade the guy from the last chapter he was able to do the thought speech in action without having to muster any particular extra motivation what we're describing here is somebody who that would not work for him he does have to create extra motivation how does he do it through meditating and the meditation provides this drive or this motivation to produce the proper thought speech in action right you were first yeah yeah looks exactly like exotic yes you would never know if you're observing you would never know if it's inside the car betting this meditation motivates him to do perfect behavior and thought speech in action yeah um and it elevates his behavior yeah okay very good very good all right so here's the question very good question you're doing this to me because i called you out and made you remember chapter three so you're throwing it back at me and reminding me something from chapter four that's very good yeah in chapter four let me explain the question it's a very technical question but it's a very good question in chapter four we describe thought speech and action as levushum garments that the way the soul expresses itself is through these behaviors of mitzvahs which we call garments because it's not the soul itself it's ancillary to the soul and yet what he's and this is what you bring up he says you shouldn't make the mistake and think that they're inferior to the soul to the contrary these these levers even though they're called levushim they lift the soul remember that's what you're referring to right okay so now you're trying to reconcile that or fit that with what we just learned that now i don't want to distort your question you want to reconcile what we learned in chapter four about the fact that the garments are actually we says over there because they're mitzvahs and toyota's one with hashem these garments are one with hashem and they're lifting us up to hashem okay so you're reconciling that with what it says here and you're wondering why would they why would this these behaviors require anything to enhance them or to magnify their impact if their if the the behaviors themselves were already described as being inherently godly and in fact in a certain way superior to the soul itself and now the soul meaning the soul's appreciation of hashem is what's pushing these behaviors to have a greater quality than they have on their own that's what you're saying okay so that's that's a fantastic question as we're gonna learn more at length more in detail in chapters 38 and 39 and 40. there are differences in the effect that these that the mitzvahs have on this world and on spiritual worlds it's not all the same it's not every mitzvah every time has the same impact on the world or worlds plural there is there's a difference between one mitzvah and now there's another okay there's another perspective from which every single mitzvah is absolutely identical um without getting into that whole discussion there's the body of a mitzvah and there's the soul of a mitzvah there's the objective and there's the subjective so there's a refining power that the that every mitzvah has on the physical world just by didn't of the fact that it is a physical action performed in this world however at the same time there is another aspect of every mitzvah which varies and depends upon the amount of emotional energy that the mitzvah doer infuses in the mitzvah i've never seen that explicitly stated but that makes sense what you're saying that a bananee who's a sherloya vaday we learned about in the previous chapter he's not infusing his mixes with any particular emotional energy that's that sounds right that sounds right okay yeah so our role in in this discussion is to enhance the tune through meditation to create a tawna through meditation it keeps changing keeps changing because our thoughts actions and speech changes well is uh you know it's it's not a physical thing it's a a mental state quasi-emotional state and the the real function of the tuna is going to be determined by how it gets transferred into the energy of a of a mitzvah and that's what we call it he calls it the highest and the godfin the brains the energy or life and the wings of the mitzvah now from a certain respect a mitzvah is a mitzvah and even if you don't want to do it but you did it and it has its objective value however at the same time there's another perspective of mitzvahs where there is a qualitative difference between a mitzvah that was performed mindfully and one that was not so the tvna here is describing a mitzvah that's done mindfully and even that is not binary it's on a spectrum how mindfully well it depends how great of a tuna you managed to produce through your meditation and a soul in it yeah no tuna is the soul of the mitzvah so there's no body to it it's an abstract thing it's emotional energy that and it's not even emotional energy it's quasi-emotional energy which we're going to speak about really because is so abstract it's hard to get it to click with physical things emotions real emotions are visceral you feel them in your body so they more readily translate into behaviors talunas are so abstract that they're almost like like like like ghostly like they don't really click with the physical world on their own um yeah i'm not sure because he doesn't use that term specifically but okay should we continue here let's continue okay so he says this tvna becomes the the highest in the godfin for the mitzvah listen to what it says as if the ship is as if you had performed the mitzvah with full-fledged intense revealed burning love you didn't perform the mitzvah with such intense emotion because you weren't able to create such intense emotion but what he says here is i want the bane in him to know that even if your meditations cannot produce the intense emotion that sadik's meditations produces you should know that your tv is counted is reckoned as if it were an intense emotion and he goes on and explains this in brackets he says he counts it as if you were yearning and pining and longing with your heart and your soul thirsting for hashem with a fiery glowing coal fire of love in your heart as if not really but as if do you get credit like that why does hashem give us that credit was he just being nice he's just trying to be nice there's a rationale behind it behind even though it's not intense raging emotion and it's only in your brain and in the recesses of your heart it's not revealed in your heart however it is what brings you to do the behavior so since it translated into behavior apparently it wasn't too shabby is this like the kiss analysis analysis no no no no no this is the avaraba's intense emotion this is the opposite it can he continues and i'll tell you even more if you hadn't meditated and mustered this little tv of yours you wouldn't have done the mitzvah rather what would you have done you're not at a sherlock day who can skate by without meditation no no if you wouldn't have done this meditation and mustered this little tuna then you wouldn't have done a mitzvah you would have done something else you would have taken care of yourself you would have done something that you want to do instead of what hashem wants you to do so the fact that your tv was enough to get you to do what hashem wants instead of doing what you want apparently it has some has some power to it and therefore hashem is saying i'm going to count that as if it were an intense emotion even though it's not an intense emotion now we have to explain why does it require this whole explanation why does hashem have to explain why it counts and looking at it as if it were an emotion i'm we're going to get to that but let's let's keep moving here he says in brackets even a person who naturally learns all the time awful yes he naturally loves his body more than hashem so the fact that he's able to keep himself going and focused on learning that must have been because he got himself to to be motivated to do it so you hear what we're saying if you wouldn't have meditated and created this little tivonna then you wouldn't have done the mitzvahs and certainly you wouldn't be doing the mitzvos consistently and the banana is doing mixes consistently so hashem counts this little tvna as if it were an intense emotion even though it's not this is what our sages hint to when they say ba'amram when they say you ever heard that expression hashem well literally matsarifah means combines hashem combines a good thought to a deed usually the way we use this expression we say uh oh you know you're going to take me to the airport at one o'clock don't worry about it i gotta ride my shovel you had a good intent and it'll be counted as if you did it that's the expression that a good thought a good intent hashem reckons or counts like you actually did it you didn't do it you wanted to do it you would have done it but you were it wasn't needed in the end it's not that you gave up and said i don't want to do it no no you were ready to do it until the very end and then it wasn't needed anymore so that's called so listen what the altitude says he's not saying this is shot of that statement but he's saying this is a remis that you can take from this statement the [Applause] the formulation of the phrase really if it would be consistent with the way our sages talk you would have thought the wording would be my law of akash of ki ilo that when you have a good intention and you meant to do it and you were ready to do it and then it didn't work out for reasons beyond your control it is considered as if you did it the wording should have been my lawless of gila saw and yet that's not what the wording is the wording is mitsodafa which literally means hashem combines hashem combines alohanian but here's the concept he's going to say why does the expression why is the expression hashem combines a good thought with a deed remember what i was saying before that these tv nice are kind of like abstract ethereal and emotions real emotions are visceral you feel them in your body nokim chernobyler the talmud of the baal shemtiv says that when he would uh say omega he would get physically fat from the pleasure of saying oh menya abba he was a real tsaddick chernobyl got fat from amenhaba i got fat from verde me name is anus i didn't make up that joke by the way i'm just repeating a joke i heard okay um but the point is atsodic's feelings for hashem are real visceral feelings you feel it in your body so therefore his emotions in his body it's not a far leap at all for that emotion that's in your body to then be expressed through your body as a mitzvah behavior however you're talking about a benny who's only creating a tv and the tune is so ethereal and abstract it's hardly more than just an idea it's more than an idea but it's not a full-fledged emotion it's not something he's feeling viscerally in his body so there's sort of a leap to get from that state into a physicalized state of a mitzvah behavior you're following what we're saying there's a little gulf that needs to be bridged so watch what he says when you have real loving of hashem like it's addict does those emotional energies are easily invested into a mitzvah to make those mitzvahs fly kia leif because a physical heart is also physical because of shame clear myself like any physical body part the only difference is the heart is he calls it more internal it doesn't just mean the physical location of it although that too because the physical is related to the spiritual but the point is the heart is a physical organ real emotions are felt physically and that's what etadek feels for hashem therefore yahoo islam godzilla it's not a big leap for that emotion to then carry over into a physical action [Applause] which are not full-fledged emotions gofu they're very lofty they're very rarified they're very spiritual and they're far removed from physical action and of their own accord they wouldn't be invested into the physical mitzvahs to serve as what we call before the mike and the highest and the in the in the godfin because there's two different the tunas are too abstract to serve as the motor of a physical action hashem intervenes and literally puts them together he combines the two with the action and that's what he's saying is the meaning or the hint within the meaning of this saying that is a good thought but here it means a tuna mitzarfalam hashem combines it because if hashem didn't combine if shem didn't put it together on its own it wouldn't go together because one's so abstract and the other one is physical and tangible these are not real visceral revealed emotions like ethadic fields it's just an appreciation of the mind and it's in the recesses the hidden parts of the heart so hashem has to get involved there and sort of make that put it together or otherwise it wouldn't it wouldn't translate into a um what we called before mike is forgotten it wouldn't you hashem wouldn't if hashem wouldn't put the tuna into your behavior they would sort of be like oil and water they were just like be two separate things the tuna leads him to do them it's regardless correct but it wouldn't have the intensifying effect on the mitzvah to give it that greater qualitative the motor yeah what we call mike and mikhail godfin right the motor except hashem pushes it and makes it happen no the person does not feel it no you're asking a question no he's not saying that you will have the subjective experiences if you had real aviva you will not but the effect your mitzvah does will be as if you had had that that real avo unit okay let's finish up the off the pedal we have like three lines here huh he says is the ladder's ben ubas son and daughter son and daughter are awe and love love and awe actually says this is a very deep kabbalistic concept but sometimes what happens is the tuna can come down and become brains for the nukva the serranpin that basically means that this abstract appreciation can translate into the motor of an action when hashem does this or this i'm not going to explain at length but in chapters 38 39 40 we'll have a whole lot of it god willing um remember i said that this combining creates a qualitative advantage to the mitzvah that it wouldn't normally have so he he now he names what that is it causes the mitzvah to have an impact on the level of the world of briya maka malia so nice which is normally the world that's affected by mitzvahs that are done with true love and awe that were generated through meditation and even though he didn't generate true love and awe through meditation he only generated hashem gives it credit as if it were done that way and therefore it impacts the world of brillia even without hashem's intervention the impact would have reached the world of yitziro which is one level lower than later at length i said chapters 38 39 and 40. so really the intervention here that hashem is doing is to make the spiritual quality of the mitzvah affect one higher world than it would have on its own yeah okay and that's chapter 16.
