The Ramchal's Essay on Fundamentals - Part 6 - Rabbi Yirmiyahu Ullman

okay very good so in this the third essay is talking about the importance of Toren mitzvahs and basically I naturally continuing the discussion of the concept of God as creator the purpose of creation the different spheres of creation physical and spiritual and then man being created at the pinnacle of the physical aspect of creation for the purpose of being the recipient of divine favor divine goodness and that's fully experienced when it is when it's deserved when it's earned and that's the purpose of free will free will is the venue for which people can receive the full good that God wants to give number one by exercising that free will in order to do what God says and number two in doing what God says to become godlike and there and thereby more akin to receiving the reward that is that is ultimately experienced by coming close to God and we spoke about how there are then two paths before each person right and wrong impure or pure in impure and free will is the village decide either one the revocations of choosing the light the right and in period in pure and purity will be happiness joy right serenity and the replications of choosing darkness in purity and wrong of course will be confusion Oh disquiet and occlusion and therefore these are the two paths set before a person the general structure through way this works is on mitzvahs and a barrows so that the light and purity and right is the direction of the mitzvahs or darkness and impurity and wrong is isabel's what's that there really is no gray area what would be the gray area ardito I mean it might be hard to tell but there is either a mitzvah or nevera I mean there is no kilo maybe a verra maybe mitzvah I mean it either we might not know it might not be clear to us right that so that's true we might live in the gray area in terms of our perception but to extent to which a person is going in the path of the Mitzvah that will be towards light and towards avera that would be darkness if he's in confused that doesn't mean that there is not one truth he's just confused about where that is right yeah so a person has to try his best you know the Mesilla sushant addresses this point very thoroughly when he talks about how the way a person can know what the right path is is by my by basically by purifying himself there's there's a hero's cerritos the heroes who is guarding oneself from transgression rights is practically fulfilling the path of the Mitzvah and the key ingredient to either is to know the Torah is to know the Torah and if you don't know the Torah then you have to consult the the ha ha Meem and he gives the famous analogy of the the mace whereby people wandering around in the maze fumbling their way through an area which is not clear in the path to the to the to the sort to the to the goal is not distinct at all but somebody who is on the par gold above I'm going to see all the different paths can tell and get instruction this is the way go that way go right go left straight forward now go back right oh and these are there these are the rabbi's or the sages throughout the generations who through their own perfection attain the goal and from that vantage point right can give instructions to others how to to get there so that's why we have rebutted for and see Deacon person has to try as best a certain what's right and wrong but it's always good to consult a rabbi to consult it's adik or two to try and get clarity what should I do that's daas torah somebody made a point after the class yesterday which is what we were talking about kind of sounds reminded the person of acupuncture acupuncture and we were talking we were kind of discussing the possibility that we were talking about it's kind of like spiritual acupuncture where the it is quite true that the Torah excuse me that the midst folks that we're talking about are actually connected to the spiritual realm and as you know there are 613 mitzvot and the 613 mitzvot correspond to 365 transgression and prohibitions transgressions and 248 mitzvahs Proactive mitzvahs so the 602 3613 is broken down into 365 and 248 these sit 365 and 248 are viewed as corresponding to different parts of the actual body the 248 positive Commandments correspond to what's described in the Jewish sources as 248 limbs of the body modern Anatomy might have a different breakdown but Toro Anatomy describes her being 248 parts of the body and 30 survived corresponds to the sinews or the tendons or the connective tissues between the different parts of the body so that in this way the 613 mitzvot actually correspond to our bodily parts 248 dues to the body parts 305 donts the prohibitions and it's not coincidental that the dues correspond to the instruments of the body that perform those are the limbs and the restrictions the prohibitions correspond to the restrictive tissue that's the tendon and the sinews and the like and the reason for this is that you actually need the you need the you need the simultaneous action of both because if you just had a by if you just had a part without a restrictive force acting on that part so the part was just flimsy and flap and would not be able to do anything so it's a very restrictive quality of the tendon which enables that body part which it which limits to operate in a specific way even if it's a limited way but but but the limitation actually enables it to operate without that limitation it would not be able to operate at all and therefore there's a very holistic relationship between on the one hand the ability to do and also the limiting of what is able to be done so that is specific action absolutely the result can take place and the same thing regardless true regarding the positive the commandments God says be fruitful and multiply but God limits how one should express that ability to be fruitful and multiply right with what person at what time in what context and so forth and so on otherwise everything would be so fluid that it just will all fall apart and therefore you need both the the proactive and the restrictive elements working simultaneously you can also think about this like a in terms of a vessel a vessel is used to contain for example something liquid or some other object what enables that vessel to achieve that projector that productive goal is that it has restrictive walls it didn't have restrictive walls which define the space the cavity of the vessel that it certainly couldn't hold anything anything you would for it it would all the might seep out so on the one hand it's the restrictive walls which is able to to to to contain something at all and when you therefore fill some liquid for example into that vessel what happens is the restrictive walls actually enable what are your filling it with 22 rice right same thing here as well the connection between the negative prohibitions and the positive Commandments create the structure the vessel the ceili within which we pour our service efficient and when one is operating with that context within that infrastructure the result will be elevation if not then result is that everything that person attains any energy that he needed heat generates is going to be wasted dissipated right and spill so what I'm saying so what you're saying that you can't reach the top of the vessel because we came obviously we can't keep all 600 really care we can't do it yeah so you know the moment yes that's true we discussed how you know in a way we're limited at least as individuals to keep all 613 but we didn't mention there that's one of the reasons why the interconnectedness between Jews is so important we say call the soil Arabian Zeta Zeta the cloud the cloud is the general community Jewish people which is kollel includes everybody so that a Cohen can keep certain mitzvahs yes that others cannot and others can keep certain mitzvahs that the economy not men can keep things that women can't and women and men can so forth and so on so that the collective body of the Jewish people is fulfilling all of the mitzvot and it works vicariously so that I actually do get connection to the mitzvah visa V my connection to another Jew who does have a connection to that mitzvah that would be at be another explanation as to why mitzvah is called mitzvah as connector where mitzvah is like the word swats said it we got together a connector so now I just connect you to Shen it connects you to one another right and the interconnectedness the Jewish people enable all people to become knit can become perfected through through the mitzvot nowadays we don't have the base image and many of the laws of Varun sasural don't apply even though there's you know even though we live in a land of Israel nowadays so many of the missiles don't apply at least eraser so collectively well either as individuals or collectively we're not able to fulfill those boots those without a chef so we will be able to but in any case to the extent to which we have the restrictions of the Torah that creates the context or the vessel within which once we pour the proactive action that will enable us to grow and be elevated otherwise it'll spill the point here is that if the 613 divided into 365 and 248 is described as corresponding to our body parts our bodies also correspond to the spiritual realm and the spiritual realm with all the parts is also described as being like the Superdome and so that just like human physiology has different parts ahead arms or torso and legs and soph and so on so the spiritual realm also has parts which are just described as being the head for example the sphero's have k cirhonk Mabini das and areas which are viewed as being like the shoulders kessinger or the torso d'affaires and there's nets up and hold the two legs you saw it in Makos the productive channel which runs down through the person's body emitting productive energy which is then received and just hated and gives birth so to the spiritual realm is responsible for directing that energy into the receptacle of this world in order to generate so fun and so on yeah so that what this means is that when a person does a specific Mitzvah or if refrains from doing a specific avera not only is he banishing impurity or infusing light into his own physical physiology since all of the bits lyst correspond to our body parts and all those body parts correspond to the supernal realm what is actually doing is causing purity to become banished from the spiritual realm or for positive spiritualities become infused and illuminated there as well and this is kind of an interesting idea that point of the person was maintained yesterday about like spiritual what would you call it acupuncture yeah so that that Mitzvah of stocka is actually touching some point some juncture some spiritual synapse in the metaphysical world and causing a flow to come down a flow of bounty and blessing of purity and this is what we were talking about yesterday hmmm so that a massage therapist could probably tell you that there are points in the body you know which maybe are more susceptible to tension or strain whether it be physical or emotional and if you know how to work those points you can enable the tissue to soften and enable the flow of energy to come through those points where the actual the release of energy or the or the drawing down of energy is flowing through that place itself will cause curing and healing the pain and the suffering might review dolphinicus things are pinched things are tight there's a constriction there's not a proper flow of blood of energy so same thing the spiritual realm as well there are places which are susceptible to becoming pinched or contracted or constricted and the result is yeah that that pain suffering agony god forbid can result so the for the directed application of mitzvahs to those places can actually enable the flow of energy but to go through them in a way where the flow itself will now repair what has been damaged yeah in the opposite you said then person if he is a cause of this constriction for sure yes exactly yes exactly that's exactly the point no this is exactly the point so so this is a way of elaborating a bit on some of the points we touched on yesterday which is how the positive things that we do in the in the form of mitzvahs or the negative energy we create in the form of a ver Oates actually has far-reaching effects on the spiritual realm for good or for bad which is then translated down into the physical world in general and even to an individual for good or for bad and it's all a result of our free will yeah spiritual energy is does like when you create good energy does attract good energy if you create negative energy or also tracking negative energy into your life yeah does it have that kind of attraction do we recognize that kind of pull mom you bad more bad elapid yes good yes I think so and you know it was succinctly said cuz I'll say that a mitzvah giris mitzvah and the Verito a severe oh yeah right a mitzvah brings about brings into being more mitzvahs that means a good deed really is results in an accumulation of another good deed and then another good deed and another good so it's actually a cumulative in that respect and a very aggressive air on the transgression does the same thing the negative energy results in an Akuma accruing of more negative energy and one more and more and also we saw yesterday this text itself the idea that there is what seems to be on the one hand light and then the absence of light which we call darkness when a person banishes the light the result is darkness darkness doesn't seem initially to be its own separate creation it's just what results from an absence of light yet the darkness that a person creates can then become an arena within which negative forces proliferate so this would exact that exactly that type of thing if a person brings about darkness and negativity what he's actually doing is creating the possibility for more negativity to come into being which actually feeds on the darkness that results from the vanishing of the light the introduction of the light is going to banish oh not only the inhabitants of that dark side but ultimately dry up right the dark side entirely this parsha which that kind of thing say it was an accidental murder or death of an individual that I guess would create dark energy accidentally however some through one of the rabbi's yesterday saying that that kind of accident will only happen if you've already facilitated a dark energy in your life so that your axe handles not going to come off unless you're negligent and by being negligent you've already starting to create negative energy in your life and therefore that's why you had to go to a city of refuge hmm how does the energy well how do you think the reward and punishment of the energy relates to something along those lines and like this week's parsha so you know the extent to which a person is directly responsible he's going to be directly culpable and the degree of negativity that involves such a person is also going to be a function of to what extent this person was intentionally negative but even if it was unintentional right number one it's going to result in a an increase of negativity and what you're adding is that the fact that it was unintentional can also itself a bringing into fruition of some smaller point of negativity that he did at an earlier time so that for example you know there are comments of siddiqui mo say that if a Jew god forbid murders somewhere in the world that's because some other Jew has used his hands on properly in another way in a more subtle way but did things which were are considered to be tantamount to spilling blood and a Jew who spills blood in a metaphysical type of a way can actually right result in creating negative energy in the world which has it ripples through the world through the course certain coarser levels will actually be manifested in the actual taking of life god forbid so that when that handle you know when that axe flies off the handle as an accident yeah it might very well be happening because this person himself has enveloped himself in some way with negative energy as a result that type of thing had happened but if that person was righteous and was in tune and was in harmony right there would be not just like divine protection but there would actually be an energy a positive energy around this person which would actually prevent that type of thing from happening right so that accident happens because the person did some other accident and that accident might come about because the president some other accident and it might start at a place which is very very subtle but as its translated and kind of ripples to the world had become more and more and more course until you know very very significant results can can occur but you know it's very it's very important but still very hard to keep this in mind with the truth is if we really were probably aware of how much of an effect we have on the world not only the things that we do not only things that we say but even our thoughts have such a strong effect in the world if we really really were probably aware of just how much effect we have I think we would be much more careful about being positive not negative and in more often than not right we're very good people and we know that what we do is important and we know that it has a great effect and if we if we do introduce negativity into the world it's because we have this temporary forgetfulness we just stop thinking about how much of an effect this is really having and that's like house I'll say that a person doesn't send unless he's invested with some spirit of folly normally he said I could never do such a thing if I do that that could really have serious consequences but when it comes all embroiled in the desire to do something all of a sudden he forgets all about that and doesn't think yeah but even the negative thoughts that we have can kill and certainly the negative speech that we can do great harm and the acts that we do can can have a great effect for provide the truth is for good as well yeah it's very difficult you know but this would be really really internalizing how much this is true can really really help a person safeguard against doing transgressions the problem is when he gets all embroiled in the desire to do that he tends to forget but if you just stop we could just stop as a wait a minute no no I cannot do this the results are just two consequences are too great and so often that can help deter us ooh mom auto vomitus on page 122 176 NL at Vegas boys bar the true good is only through cleaving to God may he be blessed faheen a high mitzvahs fabiano shem hammam she came sheffer kaduche also is below to go guard explained that the mitzvahs are the venue through which the goodness of God draws down braja Sheva bounty blessing from God and the light of his goodness alkane la hmmm saw him charlie damn tooth October Metis and therefore the mitzvahs are the vehicle through which a person can actually attained that great goodness kamisha here buddy Scottish Bashara kudos to the show so his ba one who increases his holiness through the bounty the flow of holiness from God who loyally da big bow such a person is befitting to cleave to God why because like we said earlier he has made himself God like he has removed the intervening layers between he and God so just like when you glue to services together you have to remove debris between the two so you have a proper adhesive force so to hear as well when a person does the mitzvahs he removes the impurity from him he makes himself what God like as possible by bringing upon himself the holiness of God this actually enables the person to cleave to God for the hey Nostra to go a métis and the greater to the great extent to which he's able to connect to God the greater is actually going to derive pleasure and benefit from God's goodness Oh Misha here while the tomatoes uma shows aha no but a person who has caused an increase of impurity upon himself as I have explained as we've explained meaning through the performance god forbid of transgressions who he a bill t really the Quebec bow he will simply not befitting to cleave to God why because he's going to have all this spiritual debris which acts as an interposition between he and God so how could he cleave to God how could he how can be glued to God if there's all that debris in between it's gonna prevent the services from from from attaching one to the other vide okay meno and he will be pressed away from him gumnaam yesh bacolod voy a la madre goes robos in all these matters there are many levels been Michelle fiducia whether it is the flow of holiness Oh as the wash is a Honda or the impurity that we describe the henbit / shanna kiness al-qaeda Hamas in watauga and so to the goodness that comes about that's acquired through the performance of good deeds but he or she never called um número or the distancing that one is distance from the holiness are they are oil to the evil deeds is going to be very many many varying degrees of closeness and separation ooh a fresh had been autumn the hovel vimala Metis and this is going to result in the difference between people in the true sense of the word the commotion if I rode with sea otters my as explained further on so that's going to be the difference between people in this world and even more so in the next so that for example in the world to come and says the city came were going to be dwelling there each with his own crown we discussed that a little bit but each is going to be burned by the Hoopa of his friend meaning every individual has his own kind of is wedded in his own way to God and the degree to which he is wedded to God is a function of his own particular combination of either closeness or distance from God and each one has his own coppa his own wedding canopy which is his own personal way of enjoying his place with God but each is going to be burned by the canopy of the others because he's going to see Wow look how close he is not that I'm not not that one sadak is going to be jealous of the other in the sense that why the missile sheesham explains why is he there and I'm not right rather I'm happy that he's there why also there yeah and that's going to be a function of not having capitalized on the opportunities that were given to come close to God so that's what a mitzvah is when the Czar says a mitzvah is an ASA it's God's giving you good advice about how to cleave to God if after 120 people are not happy with where they are it's only because they made their bed and now they sleep in it yeah it's up to you and it's true to a tool to a more extreme sense as well which is that's all within gonna edit but there are people during the Shamas don't get to gun it initially they go to get them gannam is not a pleasant experience at all but a person has nobody to blame but himself when you're complaining about I get I gave you the great advice I told you you have a and B choose a choose life you chose B you chose death now you're complaining you didn't follow the instructions you didn't take the good advice that such a soul should be eliminated but in God's great mercy he created hell get'em that's part of the that has the head of a Shen despite the fact that I gave you advice they gave you instructions I told you very clearly Tuesday and you rebelled and chose me I still love you I still give you an opportunity to join everybody else all the city came over there each one of those hope ur problem is to get there you have to be cleansed of the impurities that you crude upon yourself unfortunately that cleansing process is not particularly pleasant yeah what is the process like we will do the more about the process of what is so there are a lot of many teachers different teachings about about getting them and we can't go into through all of them now right but but you know the but the different sources describe a citizen area where there are there's gan eden and canim both got Eddie an end gain and each have an upper and lower chamber there's upper gunaydin law up again and log in each chamber has seven rooms or levels each one with its own name and responsible for its own thing there's 14 in total in gunnedah and 14 in Ghanem theres a river called the river DeNooyer from the river of fire which is at the entrance to Gehenna and the neshamah switch go into GaN Eden take a little dip in that River on their way in it's kind of like going into a nice hot Mick flow before shabbos but for those with those souls who have a lot of debris end up not enjoying the the dip in that river particularly and it's just a preparation for the loosen up the debris in order for it to be properly cleansed in in jahanum now person goes through the different levels of ghanem according to the debris that he's accrued and that's a function of the transgressions that he does it's enough for one person to go into one chamber right one one level of God of Gehenna million or of even again in a tacked on another person might have to go through several or even all of the levels one after the other where the purpose of course is not to punish the person but it's to give to cleanse to cleanse the neshamah so that it can ultimately get to the ghetto the ghetto excuse me to the GaN Eden that that's all that was destined for it initially if the person had made the right decision and this river done or this fire this river of fire is described as being formulated from the sweat of the angels as they serve Hashem with great fervor which means that the angels which are single heartedly serve Hashem with no yet Sahara but with one heart in a devoted fashion they serve God with such fervor that creates this energy which the which the righteous can temper and tolerate because they were also by and large serving a Shem in a single heart a dedicated way like the like the fervor of the angels when they serve God and therefore their experience in this river is something which is actually pleasant for them because they have prepared a type of spiritual vessel which is in tune with the service of God like those of the angels but the wicked or not and since they did not surface shen or if they did they did so with a multitude of different intentions or they might not have served the shame at all and they served multiplicity in all its different forms idolatry sexual immorality theft and all these things so these people are burned by the river of the sweat of the Angels that serve Hashem with single heartedness and means it's a metaphor it's like ruzicka yes it's not just process of their shame they feel ashamed so this is himself yes is but it's more than just ashamed I mean it's more than just ashamed that they actually suffer suffer from being out of current with this river right people who live their lives you know more or less in the flow of holiness they can kind of connect to the flow as it were of this river and it directs them to the right place but those who have to get across it and go against its current suffer very much they can't go they can't go with it because they didn't live the life that way so now they're really having to suffer the brunt of having gone against that the current of serving a sham in the spiritual realm and the experience is very unpleasant as is the experience in each of the different levels of Ganem but again the purpose is not punitive terms of punishment it's pure tater in terms of trip your vessel was like a person plays rugby or plays American football not European football cuz that's soccer doing every dirty if you play American football or rugby you get all dirty right but if you want to make right what if you want if you want to make it to the playoffs you certainly have to wash it Jersey before you get there right so you throw that Jersey into the washing machine and it tumbles around and around and I wouldn't want to be that Jersey but you need to clean it in order to get to the to the playoffs right so that's what happens here a person runs around and rolls around in the dirt of this world he gets his jersey all dirty and before you can get to the the finals he's got a kind of make no he's got to wash it up and washing it off is not a pleasant experience but it's not the pain which is the is the purpose it's that it's the cleansing of it like you came for the soil who'd came for this all yeah yeah so those people who made this world boot camp there already you know sergeants and lieutenants and even generals in the world to come but those who made this world a playground yeah once they get there you're in the Army now in the boot camp yeah you didn't do you didn't go through basic training there so we're gonna have to do it here better to do it here than there are we gonna say I was gonna ask a question but might be better suited for the essay on paradise okay okay okay fun fair enough so let's go for a bit further here the Torah tada and it's important that you know that we know shiki motion oughta know Dom she yay mom she flats muy kedusha Zuma just as it is possible for a person to bring holiness or a pureness of impurity upon himself can attend low sugar cough massive young the whole hub Maria kula haga do shahe Zuma that the same thing applies for all of creation that we are given the ability to bring purity or impurity not only upon ourselves but into the entire creation venom so Calabria metachronous Oh miss Kyle Kalis holiday autumn and the result is that all of creation is either corrected or derailed as a result of what people do and he's touching upon these very far-reaching consequences that we spoke about earlier and the great responsibility that we have the Hajj FZ this who's Lacerda game shamita vunna Bria and this will be considered as a reward or AZ merit for the righteous that they're actually benefiting the entire world well the whole village is showing and as an obligation on behalf of the regime Shinnecock DiNozzo who destroy the world commercials of harm others named as we explained within so people say one of those religious people contribute to the world those good-for-nothing lazy bums living offering everybody when in truth in many ways exact opposite it's those who are indulging in the bounty of this world who are actually living off the blessing that's brought into the world on behalf of the silicon like the Kimura says regarding ribbit Hanina Ben dosa toribio Hanina Ben dosa a great Jewish say to the Talmud he lives off a very simple diet all week long yeah this is a small amount of carrots on Fridays on Shabbos that's all he ate but in his merit his holiness and his sanctity and his righteousness the entire world was sustained so everybody was having a jolly old time on his account but they might point a finger at him and say who's that recluse what is that tourist draw all about it's not involved in the world he's not interested in the world he doesn't contribute in the world doesn't do anything productive does it contribute in any way don't realize exactly the opposite they're living off the fruits of the labor of the righteous and pointing a thing of the righteous the right just don't do anything they don't contribute no what's that that's a dilemma in Israel yeah and all over the business it's true even in Israel the truth is an observant person has to show empathy for the world and for what other people do and so for example if there are people who work or people who serve in the army and do all these types of things and a religious person finds he's not doing that because he is presently dedicated to full-time study there's no reason why he shouldn't say to the soldier for example good job thanks very much may God protect you and guard you yeah no reason why you shouldn't protests yeah against a army if they were came together all them were prayed for the people in the army you could have changed the whole I don't know yeah kind of in a kind of changed things in there but even at that time many people work you know we're trying to communicate state yeah you know what was so great for you thank you yeah yeah yeah so there were people who are trying to communicate that idea but your traits it's true that's why I'm saying you know it kind of goes both ways right Willis community might also sometimes retract into its own self defensive pneus and convey the wrong message you know it's a difficult looks like a gray area that your time but it's kind of some not always easy to know exactly who should say what went into whom but at least generally we should be aware that yes while Torah learning is of utmost importance and we have to be convinced of the great way in which it benefits the world we should still feel and even when it's appropriate demonstrate appreciation for those who are contributing to the world and in you know in another way and in the fit in there in the physical Monday way and that means even saying thank you to the garbage man if there was no garbage man yeah yeah who would be taking out the garbage with the garbage everywhere you couldn't learn tour because we stinking everywhere yeah so so there's no reason why a person who is rushing to show having the most spiritually elevated ideas in mind it is about to connect to the creator of the universe shouldn't simultaneously say thanks to the garbage man as he's picking up the path the bands and throwing it into the truck yeah that's also part of making a you hood a unification between the different forces in the world in any case look over there assurance in McCarthy know some commotion some harmony om nom hey Derek Shaboom I'm chicken marseille odom SR spas are they hoo boo hoo ha ha KU polish is Ohana llamala the way in which we can bring about these influences in the world is through the force of a haka bulleh shah jahan llamala I read the English here which means these transit these influences is through the above-mentioned power heroism parallel parallel ISM parallelism fellows on yeah that exists in the entities below ok so the yes the huh Kabbalah the correlation been hi name so I'm hi chef Aleem those creations which are in the physical mundane world who Ben Acosta sell your name and the forces which are high in the spiritual world are chica share you Senora Hardman and him so I'm LaMotta Heaney again he service hello Konoha mag below llamala so when a person operates in some way below in the physical realm he's actually causing a corresponding place in the spiritual realm to be stirred in accordance with what he's done haha who then through this force that he has set into motion to survive her talaga shitty sovath b'ham shock oh hush bows and this will bring about the bringing down then of these influences whether for good or for bad kahini I'm Amasya who yay michela commit suvi if that act is going to be associated with one of the commandments yes or a coaxial of vistas ech the force which is above that Mitzvah will become strengthened varga doll tamasha ha ha ha shall kedusha bananas bra Cathy ingen hi solucion asaram the result then will be a leading low a letting loose a flow of holiness from its source on high to the degree to a degree which is relevant to the act that was done and it's not only an act by the way if a person is performing a mitzvah in the realm of speech or midst from the realm of thought those actions or those words or those thoughts are connected to the spiritual realm the corresponding place that we've mentioned the 613 248 and 365 respectively so even a thought and then the quality of that thought is going to have a commensurate degree of effect so the person for example is contemplating on his love of God or his thoughts of understanding God and those thoughts are very very very thorough very deep very intense though that's going to set into motion a flow of energy which is commensurate to the degree of the Mitzvah and that's also true regarding the speech and also the deed vba a mas a metallic honey knowing you go and began becau hey Leon but if this act or for example speech or thought is among the things which are to be avoided then it will cause harm and deficiency in the powers at ha on high caffeine enema Sahara in accordance to that particular bad deed or speech or thought this autumn can negate a always buff these are heck the results will be that the light of God will disappear and become distanced via Sora tom has a health Audrina carcass a tumor and then there will be catalyzed into being one of the negative forces in that darkness which has created that's what we're talking about before right the transgression banishing the light the darkness then becoming a place where negative forces can pull refer eight and therefore he has caused all this to come about oh hopefully the hospice of kedusha shin is a llama and this will be right converse to the degree of of holiness which has caused to depart the UF momento missions aluma the motion in meno mesh of zuma they will then flow from this vanishing of the light that he's
