The Temple / Sanctuary Today. ועשו לי מקדש A New Kabbalah class by Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz

welcome to our class on this we're going to be learning this week a beautiful hasidic discourse from the rebbe the name of the discourse is called the asuli migdash the rebels said this civic discourse on shabbos parish which was in the sixth day of the month of adar in the year tough shin mem giml 39 years ago so again the civic discourse is based on the verse in this week's torah portion where it says the us where hashem commands their jewish people to make amignosa base amigdas and hashem says when you make it from evil i will dwell amongst you so it's brought down in qazal that tell us that any time it says in the in the torah lee to me it's everlasting it doesn't get moved and now there's not in this world and that in the world to come and as it says but in reference to mesa migda you should make lead to me that means a mignus is everlasting so rubber asks a question we know the mig dosh where it says the obsolete mcdosh is also referring to the mishkan like the talmud says that mishkan is called mgdosh and mig dash is called mishkan nevertheless in the mishkan we know in the tabernacle there were changes and the same thing also with the reference in the basement itself the basement king solomon made and the second base of mcdosh they were both destroyed so in other words besides the fact that there was changes in the michigan tabernacle constantly moved but the fact is in the two in the two uh bhatti magnus and the two temples they both destroyed so how can the medras say ain't a zlatan it never gets moved anytime this is vessel makes me it's everlasting the fact is they were moved and they were and they were destroyed so the rabbit brings from the uh said that the third rabbit is classical works of siddhis in the parasha called torah and he says as follows that the mig on high the mig dust in heaven is connected to the mig dust down below in other words there's two tis two base of magnus there's a mig dust in heaven there's a make this down here and the two of them are connected and he says just like we find the reference to not only the base of dash but the whole city of jerusalem which you will have the whole jerusalem that's built so it says it says in psalms that's connected and the commentaries tell us what does it mean that's connect that is connected that the user jerusalem as we know it down here there's a jerusalem on high in heaven as well and the jerusalem on high is connected to the jerusalem down below so just like the jerusalem on high is connected to jerusalem down below the same thing also the migration high is connected amid this down below so based on this that samuel explains robert simonsen explains what does it mean along the way something this is everlasting that even though unfortunately we don't have the temple today but the powerful light and the powerful energy of the base hamikdash on high is shining down in this world now as well service is very nice it's a nice answer however that's referring to a spiritual base of mgdosh yeah there's a spiritual base to make this on high in heaven but what does it have to do with the base of magnus down here in this world and it's that and a matter of fact the command says the us you should make to me and make this not on heaven but down here in this world and that base omega so we make down this world that should not be moved so you're going to answer about this basement right very nice i love it but where's the basement down here where it says says you can say that's why the the the son of celtic brings another explanation based on a verse in the prophet a famous verse in the prophet that says that hashem says unfortunately we're going to go there into gallus so it says that the prophet says i'll have a small base amigdos what does mean a small basis magnificent destroyed so hazal tell us what does it mean hashems will have a small base of magnesium in the time of exile when the temple will be destroyed that's referring to the base like nessus and the base of madras the how the shulls the place we go to pray the talmud is the place we go to learn that means even though unfortunately in gullus we don't have the temple the temple is destroyed the mishkan the tabernacle the basement both were destroyed but nevertheless in gullets what we have is even in godless we have our synagogues we have our schools we have our our schools and that's called migrate that's a small mcdosh that that's that that lasts forever so it was based on the service explains what some of the saying is that on one hand you had the spiritual base of magnesium high and the biggest picture we have down here that that never gets uh moved and it's always here it's referring to into times of gallows to the to the synagogues and to the anti-israel and to the schools etc so trevor says based on this he what he says you can you can add to it and say even deeper as follows in other words this is what it means when it says that um ilam which means that just like you have you were shaliam as you said before jerusalem is always exists on a spiritual level and since jerusalem on high is always there therefore jerusalem on low is over even though we don't have we don't have it with all full glory we still have because jerusalem high so the same thing also after the destruction of the temple and we know it says the famous line that says that god let out his anger only thank god on wood and in stone but however the base amid us down here which is referring to the places of worship the shulls the yeshivas the play we go to pray and to go study that's something which lasts forever so in other words what server explaining that the oscillators that the everlasting component of the base of mgdos what does that mean it's everlasting so on a simple level what's everlasting is the spiritual basement has always said it never got destroyed but the base of english down here that got destroyed what do we have instead of the physical ace mcdosh we have all the schools and we have all the basement and all the all the houses of of learning so even though it's not the base of magnus that's why it's called the magnesmat but rubber says daddy's going to go into a step deeper and he says this follows we have to understand what are we saying that the base i'll make this video you should make to me a holy place i'm going to dwell here that means that whereas hashem dwell in the base of magnus in the times of the temple it was a time it was a temple and today it's in the shules and the yeshivas but do you ever ask a question we know there's a famous verse that says in the prophets as a shamayi in versailles it's an imali that the heaven and the earth i referring to the essence of hashem fills up in other words the essence of hashem is all over the place and not only the level of god which we call mali which is called in the world of kabbalah malik god comes down into this world but even our knee referring to the essence of hashem which we call in the world of kabbalah's slave of commons too powerful to be internalized but that powerful light is in this world and everything's even higher level not only mammalians in this world where god fills the world not only saving where god is a super it hovers over the world but that part comes into the world but even level higher than slave also comes in the world and and that's found in the world so since we're saying i i'm at the base in the prophets this is is here slave is here and even higher annie hashemas in the world so what's the bigger idea of the make the base of megdosh make the base of magnesium i'll be here hashem is all over the place now so what are you going to say that true shaman's all over the place but hashem wants the awesome dosh what does that mean he wants us there's something which hashem always wants in the world that we should have something which is called avoid us we should put our effort into something so even though hashem is all over no question about it but the reason why assam says we also make dollars because he wants us to put our effort our effort our our energy our our resources and that's what hashem wants from us but so if that's the case or someone wants to put our effort there's a lot of things we do to put our effort to make our shum reveal there's two there's the all the myths that we do is our effort but what's the connection of us limit those specifically making amazing dosh how is that unique and special over the fact that hashem is all over the place siddhartha explains based on what the alters said in tanya the october explains in tanya and he says as follows that the novel ideal of the base of mikdash versus the way hashem is found all over the world the malay the saving heart of save is that in the basement is found in a revealed in a revealed way in a specific place and hashem is all over the world there's no place in the world where shame is not hashem is everything and his name is and even higher but hashem is not revealed all over however when you come to the base of hashem is revealed over there i never gives an example just like we know the soul that comes into the body so the fact is the soul on one hand the soul is all over because the soul wasn't giving life force to every part of the body the body would shut down so the soul provides energy from the head to the feet and they all get they all get energy the global idea of energy in other words that global energy a constant assault goes to all every one of our limbs and every one of our part of our body the 248 um limbs and the the 365 the veins in our body every part of our body is full with the energy of hashem but nevertheless hashem created the human being as follows that where is the the the greater part of energy where's the the part where the energy is revealed and the most revealed energy is specifically in our brain and from the brain it goes out to the whole body so knows the analogy is just like the energy is revealed mainly in the brain and from there goes to the whole body so the same thing also when it comes to the temple that the god is all over the world a hundred percent but with hashem mainly revealed and hasham is mainly revealed in the base amigdos and from the base of magnus the energy goes all over the world now the other brings down there's actually two different opinions whether the the revelation in the big dash is in a way where it's it's revealed but it's it's it's called in kabbalah it's called mahavira and market which means it's hovering over we don't can internalize it or the revelation is actually a way that we can we could internalize it so just to recap what they're saying is as follows what does it mean vasily mgdosh hashem is all over and the answer is hashem is all over 100 percent but where is hashem mainly revealed hashem is mainly revealed we're in the base of mignos and from there the light goes all over the world so based on this rubber explains why it says in the verse the australidas you should make to me a sanctuary and i'll dwell there and it says we know it says brought down in in many different commentaries i explained that the verse says make me a sanctuary so say this i'll dwell into the sanctuary but it doesn't say which is plural and referring to hashem will dwell into each and every one of us which is a powerful shift the us limidash make to me a sanctuary and hashem will dwell we are into every single one of us in other words what does that mean practically that this component that an amigdas hashem is revealed has therefore hashem is revealed in every single one of us and not only hashem is revealed into every single one of us but also for example just like in the base of mikdos there's the there's the menorah there's the tabernacle there's the the this bayak there's the altar there's the candelabra etc so therefore within us hashem is it dwells within each other just like he dwells within the temple what does that mean practically he never explains like this there is based on what's brought down in many places like this and specifically in the in the book called say for our mitsuha that someone said that he has a very powerful book that explains the different mitzvahs according to kabbalah and he says as follows we know that the mishkan the tabernacle had curtains and it had beams so the curtains is more hovers over it's more market and the beings are more more focused or for example another analogy would be the the the curtains which which is more market and the vessels that make this is more preemie specific vessels with specific things which goes into the category in the michigan you have machiavelli you have lights which are very very powerful you cannot internalize but they're powerful lights and then you have lights that are when they get internalized so that's the way it wasn't based on mikdash in the mishka so the same thing also applies to spiritually why again to stay focused since it says i'm going to dwell within you so just like in the temple there was an avoider there was a spiritual work of market the way the curtains went around and the way it got please internalize whether through the beams or through the different vessels of the base of mgdos the same thing also within each and every one of us we have two different ways we connect to hashem in a way of makif and way of preemie and as our service hashem gets divided onto the way we we internalize our relationship with hashem and the way we connect to ourselves more in a market way in a superficial type of way what does that mean not supervised the way it hovers over it's very very powerful and the river brings the the verse that says as follows that the the light um surrounds us like like a like like like uh like a garment real the heaven ben harbors over us so you see there's the oil which gets internal the light gets internalized and then there's something which goes around us surrounds us what is that referring to on a spiritual level so it's brought down in kabbalah it says like this there's the idea of um it's referring to heaven the way it harbors over us that's referring to market the way something hovers over us from the outside but then there's something which is called hashem plans within us the light what is light light we know is that something we internalize that's something we have personal benefit from that's something which goes into a premiums so you have the light which you internalize and then you have the heaven which goes in the market what does that mean practically so whoever explains like this what does it mean avoid this other which means practically speaking our service of hashem there's the avoid of makif which hovers around over us or it's like a garment what does that represent that represents the avoided the work of doing a mitzvah so when we do a mitzvah and again the 613 commandments there's 248 positive commandments there's 365 negative commandments so anytime we do a mitzvah or we refrain from transgressing against the mitzvah that we are creating spiritual garments for us like it's like doctor explains that lent in tanja in the beginning which is referring to mitch voice as a garment which which which hovers around us and that's in general more specific than rubber says in mid-swiss you have two different love two different levels in this voice in other words besides the fact that generally speaking there's two different levels of mitzvos in other words there's the way a mitzvah was given to us down in this world a physical mitzvah and then there's a mitzvah the way it's on high on on a spiritual what does that mean a spiritual on high and there it brings the verse that says part of the israel what does that mean that the the the words that hashem does for himself that's what he tells us to do and as any time hashem tells us to do a mitzvah every one of the 613 commandments hashem doesn't he wouldn't ask her to do something he doesn't do so in other words there's a mitzvah that hashem does the midst of hashem and that is the message that we do so you see in this voice of two components there's a physical mixture that's done down in this world and then the midst of the hashem doesn't run high but besides those two levels of myths the way eight weights on high the weights down here even the way a mitzvah comes down into this world and we do the mitzvah there's two different levels to the mitzvah and again as we said before what's a mitzvah this is a market that surrounds harvest around the person you're doing hashem's command so there's something which is called makifaq it hovers around in a very very close snug way when you do certain midsoles and then this mac like it hovers around more on it and more in a circumference type of way it's not so snug and like driver says it's explained length and the altar explains there at length on the cutie toyota at the end in other words what does that mean is a missile which is more um and one that's more macrophage so the arthropod explains that a mitzvah that we also understand which is given to us tamvadas that's a makavakara if we understand it we comprehend it that's already a mitzvah even though it's a myth as a command from hashem we're doing hashem's will but we can comprehend it it makes sense to us that's called makarov but then there's a missile which is beyond logic we don't understand it that's called makifa because when you do it you still connect hashem but it's not internalized because you don't understand it and the way we understand the way we internalize things is through comprehension so again so to be to to clarify mitzvos are market as we learned almost like four levels of mitzvos there's mix of the weights on high the way which is down below and though he misses down below there's mark if a curve which means the ones we understand the ones we don't understand that is makif which is referring to misfits but then as they avoid our spiritual work of premiums how we internalize things how do we internalize things into what we use to internalize things our intellect so what do you what do we process with our intellect we learn torah so anytime you sit down and learn torah you read whatever you're reading and then you sit and you comprehend it you understand it and you and you think about it you meditate on it so now you're internalizing you're bringing into a premium into an internalization hashem's intellect and hashem's ideas so it was like doctor explains in tanya that that um that uh learning torah is like food and it's like it says it says on the term it says the terror is going into my innards now when we learn torah we get internalized now so again just before we get uh deeper into it so the river is explaining is there's two components in the temple one is the avoid of machiavelli the the curtains and what is that by the premiums the different different vessels that we used in the temple the same thing also in our spiritual service of ashram there's the makif which is the midst voice and in the mark of the midsize is there's a level the way he misses on high but they relate to us the ones that we comprehend that's machiavelli the ones where you don't comprehend this market for a hike and then there's when we learn torah that's the avoiding the premier we we're understanding the terrible sound so the other says even though generally speaking torah is more paneers but nevertheless the what is that what does the verse say oita or kasama in other words that when it's referring to the light of terror it also uses the term of a garment and a garment we know is a market and rubber explains there's two levels in learning toro there's a learning toilet the revealed part of toronto and re learning toyota the internal part of the tutorial so one is more torah where it's more market and then when you learn sinners and you internalize it becomes more of a preemies now so let us watch our spiritual work in this world to do mit's voice and learn torah and that's how we do the spiritual service of the temple that's we also limit us from a personal level learning torah and doing mitzvahs we're making our physical abode amid this for hashem so rabbit says when we do create armageddon which means when we learn torah it means we're doing the volleyball baseball and we do a mitzvah we were doing the avoiding the experience right from we do it on a spiritual level in other words by learning torah and doing midtoys so by us doing our avoid our spiritual work we merit as the verse says after the migdash so hashem says so you should do and others and rashi says what i mean you should do not only then when you built the basement because russia's clearly it's referring to the race for future generations it means to us hashem commanders to make them make this regime we know is learning turning doing emitters and then the verse afterwards and it's an everlasting commandment till today every time we learn torah we're doing mid-size we are trained taser we're building the base amigdas so we'll merit by doing our work will merit to have the ultimate third base amigdos the big the bigness of the awesome lovely and as we know in reference to the third base omegas wasn't saying the prophets uh or in the torah actually that the mignolet with his own hands because even though that the the tabernacle didn't last forever forever and the same thing also the base of migration king solomon didn't last forever but what's going to come to the base of mikdash a building that's going to last forever and like it said explain in the zarya that the third race to make this is going to be really nitsy really everlasting but where does it come from that we'll that will that eventually will have the third baseman just gonna last forever so ever says the the energy and the strength comes from the original mgdos the made and as the torah says clearly the chain tassel the rights like rashi says we we're that we'll be us doing learning turn doing missiles we're going to do our part that will give the energy for the third base amigos and driver's says finish off and it sounds like this it should be the will of hashem that very very soon will have the building of the third base amigdas how's that going to happen because we learn now in the terrier about about the base of ignos and we know the terror is everlasting and especially when you learn in this week's torah portion about the building in the basement and like there were brings to the famous saying in the altar that a person has to live we have to learn with the passion of the week so because but when we learn the past of the week and we learn about the building amygdalas we have the strength and the power that by us being busy learning torah and doing mitzvots which the avoid of osli migdash will merit very very soon very quickly to building the third base amigdas which is going to happen in the true and complete redemption through mashiach at kenu and as we know it's brought down to zoya and many other places that the base how mig this is already built it's ready on high and it just has to come down to this world and literally like within a second just like you would say a second it's going to come down to this world and you're ever finished with your menu it should happen very very quickly in our days literally in a physical level so obviously you see it's a very very powerful hasidic discourse because it shows us that a temple is everlasting maybe not the physical temple but the spiritual work that we do by learning torah and mitzvos makes the temple everlasting besides the temple everlasting on high but more importantly we learn taro and we do mix as we do the avoid of the base of mgdos we are creating the energy for the third base of amigdas and let's hope that our next class will be in your salayan iraqi dish have a great and blessed week shavua tov
