Chabad Theory of Relativity

i think we're on page where's the 295 we're in the middle of the payrick yeah so what we're learning about it's it's a deep opinion oh the last thing that we learned about actually is an important issue mentioned see this in various places and that is that the sweetness of an apple for example its it's origin in concept is in godliness in its source um avior hill someone could you mute yourself i hear some background noise thank you but but to say that there's actual sweetness sweetness in other words cassette crescent was called el yoin supernova you've heard that expression is crested alien sweet no it is not sweet you know when we you learn see this there's a there's a an important rule you you must understand and know from the beginning you have to demystify everything you cannot learn these type of subjects and think that i'm going to actually be able to grab heset and it's going to of cassidelian and it's going to be tasty and delicious it doesn't work that way in concept it's a it's a sweet idea and that's what a shop says here so on one hand to say that the musical of an apple doesn't begin in concept in its source is wrong simultaneously to say that this actual sweetness there is also wrong this is what the rep is teaching us over here let's continue now in 295 the last paragraph even though there is no oh and what we learned was wait a second one more point the ain't right i want you to become familiar and comfortable with these two words which means no comparison no eric no association in our there is no association and comparison between atsilus and what's higher than nazilus even if you compare atsilos to what's below it the three worlds and asea you would think yani that the world of action the world of asea and by the way we're not talking about the physical world the spiritual world of action which is the forerunner of the physical world of action is so much so much more distant for matsilos than anything else says that ashabi are quoting the kabbalah siddhas that it's not that way in in in in its own right if you compare at silos to asia it's a naroch there's no comparison but if you compare the distance the spiritual distance the conceptual distance between those two realities realms levels compared to atsilos if you compare how atsilos is to ainsoft to the creator that's really distant and then atsilos to asia would be considered close so what what is this concept also called that in hasidis avi it's called as an indian yakasi theory of relativity his theory of relativity is that when you look at levels and ideas of spheros and euler moist like hilo mentioned adam cardman and and there's all kinds of names thrown out there in cabola it's all true but when you start comparing one to the other you have to be careful because it can say one idea in one place and the opposite idea about the same thing in another place and the question is how could that be it's contradictory the answer is it's not it's yahasi it's relative and this is an example so when you talk about if we were to learn a mimer yoni just about the way sweetness of the apple or or the comes from matsilos if that was the focus of the mimer it uh only we would say wow what a great distance between the conceptual idea of the apple as it is in oxilus the concept of the apple as it's in utsilus to the way the concept of the apple is in asean but if you take that same comparison and you ask what is the relevance of the apple in atsila's compared to the way that the apple is in in in in what's it called in itself it's a much further distance or better said hillel it's less matsuyut it's less entity it's less it's it's less of an existence in other words the bitter let's let's let's let's say it in hasidic terms we're learning this this is real you're getting this morning what we learned in yeshiva which i loved the beetle the beetle the the the zero of of of an apple and its sweetness as it is from the perspective of ainsof is much more bitter than the way the apple is in oxilus the way the the way atlus looks at the apple and why is that because ain't soft motion is godliness or in this case you could say yeah it's got godliness and not silo says although it's already it's the first of the worlds and it's comes from the word a tail it's near godliness but it's not godliness it's near godliness and when you talk about this difference it's not a difference of degree you hear that it's a difference of concept where here it not just the physical doesn't exist the idea doesn't exist so you say wait a second but it comes to remain self it comes from godliness it comes from god so what do you mean doesn't exist the answer is it only exists the way from from god's perspective as everything else exists but in in itself it's from its perspective it's a big zero it's a big zero it's nothing and this is what that shot quoted yo sir remember these words is i go further any questions on that [Music] no but it has a certain sweetness to it you guys are great you know how to take a deep concept and make of it margarine butter and kishka let's go this is why give your kids and grandkids a yeshiva education and if you wanted to not see this alibaba do you achieve education because these things you only get i'm not saying own they shouldn't say only but you really get them in your youth when you're you know when you're a teenager and you're studying you're immersed i'm not saying people haven't come to deep understanding of things later on they do but there's still something unique about the education when we're young young girl yes moshe yeah you asked about any questions i mean i'll be blunt um it really really um i think in in in in theoretical terms i would say that i get it but le mans said i'm struggling to find to try to understand to be blunt i'm struggling to find on a day-to-day basis [Music] the jew who's trying to work and raise his family and dive into gorgeous marco etc i'm i'm struggling to find the the importance of this on a practical level right theory right i did not i did not discuss it and it's a good question but that's for another time and better for fabregan or or even a sheer but and maybe we'll get to that but i i i don't want to do that right now because it's going to take us away from the text and i have to we have to learn the text maybe the rashaba himself will bring it home but your question is a very good one what's the relevance a practicality of knowing how ana rog the sweetness of the apple is in this level of that level right see this is what our teacher my spirit of yo khan he had the gift he has the gift let him be well he's a canadian hut and older men you know he was able to take these concepts and and and break them down showing you it's it's relevance and it's it's interesting because your question to me was my question to him always you know i was his nick at the sheer and i used to sit right across him just like you're in front of me on the screen right he i'll tell you a story but at that time in night in the night early 1980s to to record to record a a mashpiyya giving a shirt was a taboo and this wasn't just and elsa rashford the whole world the literature world and the khasi leadership the whole idea of recording someone was not acceptable because you know who am i to to be recorded and and slowly we broke it in and now everyone wants to be recorded the biggest revan the biggest rush of shiva anyway so rabiot was teaching us deep casitas of the rashab and i remember where it was on eastern parkway and in the winter and it was hot the steam was blasting in the room and we had 50 60 buck or him in the room the room was jam-packed and my seat was right in front of him i mean like across him and you know i had a very tight relationship with in general and and you know so they came to me from the chabad communication center who was at that time beginning to really tape everything and do that and they said we know that the shiurim of rabbi oil are incredible one of a kind and we want them for eternity would you do us a favor in your book you see my book in here right here there's a little in the bar there's a little space in the binding right we're gonna give you a thin mic you on your side you stick it in here all the way till over here don't stick it out and just put it down and he won't realize and will record him and i did it and i did it until today there are bakran that come over to me they say thank you for recording those yoda because they're the clearest recording of those which are like foundational for understanding you know because they were there were the recordings before on tapes and you can hear half words and it's it's a balagan but these recordings like he's speaking into speaking into a mic right in front of him and he knew nothing about it as far as as far as we know maybe i don't think maybe he did but i don't think so and because of that we have today those recordings so why am i saying that because so i would sit there and knowing that there i have this recording going i would sometimes specifically ask questions like yours moshe i remind myself now because he taught wonderful things but it was aloof so i said what how do we concretize this how do we materialize it what does it mean and he would start again he never he never got angry he would start again explaining and try another way of explaining so i'm saying to you although i'm not giving you the explanation right now let's continue inside yes you want to say something yeah talking about right yeah so i wrote [Music] we had to say the same kind of stuff from gomorrah like we're learning tomorrow i was less than 10 11 years old i had no idea a lot of this stuff seemed so impractical my opps kicked your ux i didn't have an ox i had you know my parents had a car i mean and i would ask a question in any way like that it would be oh it's hooks with it you're asking i'm like no i want to know why am i learning this like i'm saying this is the you know right but yeah okay um right and here here but here the conversation was about these conceptual ideas about god existence you know um it's not just about an ox or about a ghetto or about a ksuba it's it's it's about you know is the you know the unity of god okay let's continue 295 last paragraph although there is no comparison to hashem nevertheless but they have qualities in common i'll show you there is concepts of sweetness in spiritual matters so delightful wait a minute you took intellectual information into your brain but it causes a sweetness and a dishmac so that's why we see there is a reverse there's a concept of sweetness in the brain so moshe that's part of what's the difference before you can speak about what's the difference you have to know what it is so this is the first idea top of 9 297 a that you like and a that touches you and you sing it to yourself or you sing it with others and it really touches you you have time you have pleasure you could you could bask in that and just not move you know why is it especially khabad nagin that we go ayaya yanaya over and over and over one of the explanations i wrote about this in my book your better self in the chapter under nigun i explained it over there that the idea is that when you become taken by the you hear that not you take the you're innocent the absorbs you and when the absorbs you so you're you're not there the is controlling and the is to the right to the left yes thank you to the right to the left up down sad lively so the repetition of the ayahis in the khabad melody is a sign of kainuk and you don't want to let go you don't want to let go and guess what if you really if you really been taken by the you can't let go because it doesn't let you go so even if you want to go intellectually the negan has you and by the way the same is true with art i don't know who's going to say it here but i told you i had in my house i still have it right here the picture of the balchemt of these the the the hasidam in a wagon mostly i'm sure you see this is from handel right handle i think yeah it was almond climbing one of the hasidic artists the horse is going upward pulling a chariot a wagon with 10 kassidim in there and it's called from khaslovic which was in the minsk area a litvish area thank you very much to the [Music] which means we're going from hostage we're laboratories but we aren't in a laboratory what's going to be there that's the song is expressing that that's what that picture is about people don't know this that's it and it's called right so i my friends we all were together a group of 10 of us we were sent from morristown from the rabbinical college in morristown new jersey to los angeles as older bakr and we were the third group that started in 1978 or so and we went to 1981 we were the third group from 81 to 83 we were there two years so and then we became close and then when each of us married out they gave the hust and they gave they gave this picture and i was the first one of the ten to marry so i have the picture it's very special for me and i had it in california marine county when i was a sleepers in marin county so i think i told you i had mental foot of us with my wife's great uncle and he stayed over in our house with rabbi reichik one day one one day they would come one day to san francisco to raise funds for his yeshiva not his yeshiva but for the the bakurin grazini in yeshiva in kwara khabad and wherever it was anyway um and he goes over to the wall like he never saw this picture before which is hard for me to believe but he goes over to my wall and he's standing at the wall gazing at the picture and i say to him uncle right i said uncle what are you gazing at like i i i didn't want to say more like you've never seen the picture like well you know so he says are there 10 people in the wagon he's counting the people in the picture in the wagon so i said i never counted and i start counting and i say yeah he says ah good because when the this is the balsam this is the balshampton whenever he traveled he took a minion with him so he somehow looked at it as traveling to the belgentive but i remember he was totally taken by the picture so here too someone who appreciates a piece of art it's not it starts off with him appreciating the art but if he's really a a maven the art consumes him and it consumes him to the point where if you were to tap him on his back he might not turn around you know why because he's not there he's in the picture because the picture of swallowed him so you have that in art and you have that in the gina and you have it in segal it's all the perspective the it it's it it could be when you reach that point it's the tainook and so that's what the rashaba is saying here we do find tainog pleasure in spiritual matters let's continue inside and remember this is the reason this is the reason why you're talking about the order why the right page for my grant my wife's grandfather goes to art school that was the reason okay wonderful that's great great bar hashem we need more from artists like moshe and others let's go and you and you say let's go fight in 297 learned in the beginning of country somalian i remind you that the rebbe spoke about different levels of pleasure the greatest level of pleasure is from seiko intellect the next level he says is nigel whether it be from seiko or whether it be from newton when it progresses downwards and the spiral turned downward called the evolution called it it actually forms physical pleasure but the pleasure begins within the ten emanations of asia there is a yacht there is a relativity an association between them in other words just as listen to this just as the tiger seiko ultimate leads to a tiny gosh me the pleasure the intellectual pleasure ultimate leads to a negan pleasure and ultimately leads to a physical pleasure so too in the spiritual realm from us it will ultimately lead to cosma darcia so that's why as much as they are inaroh there still is a yakas as much as there's no comparison in other words in the building blocks of the dna of these two experiences and and platforms there is a commonality that's his point so the practicality and application of the dna is very far one from the other so you wanted something practical moisture the rush of shiva on one hand what comparison is there between a rush of shiva who's totally into the gemara and everything else with someone who's a heart businessman working every day the answer is that the application and manifestation from that perspective there is no comparison but in the structure of the dna even the simple person who can learn and learns and if he were to apply himself he can be a talmud that makes him have a commonality with the genius rashiva so let's put it this way would you say that albert einstein the genius of geniuses had no association with a with any other regular individual and the answer is it depends at least this is the way i see it if you're talking about the amount of information no question about it but if you're talking about the dna that he used to cut to to create his is to create his information you and i have it as well hashem gave us seiko dalton says in chapter 12 and tanya in call me it's very interesting whoever he says every person has a brain in his head and therefore one can apply mind over matter but wait a minute einstein is a great mind but i'm a little i i don't get it says doubt that ever wrong you have a brain too yes the the application of your brain is not used and developed as much as his so therefore he's way beyond you but you have something in common i called it before the dna but even here might have to cut cutter if you have a mythical you can control your feelings and harness them et cetera so this moisture is an explanation of what we're talking about here at least a little bit that there is on one hand no comparison and at the very same time there is a comparison yeah come that's moved here rhetorical remark although is separate from priests so how could you say there is the cause and effect um procedure happening is [Music] the spiral evolution within the world itself of silos each world has its set and opera operate of operative fashion of one leading to the other elysees touchless materials oh here he introduces something new for us i don't believe we've ever learned it or seldom the concept called a parso parsa means yo innocent remember the word parsa parson means a forehand a curtain a spiritual curtain what a face face no no you're mixing up you're listening with parts right let's look now what he says about parsley this is like a curtain yeah a curtain what what curtains do we have in hatsilus what's going on here curtains lexilus let's see what the reshab says they're very sheer there the indianapolis the idea of a parser if you compare a parable an example a muscle to the actual content of the seiko udavo the muscle compared to the actual idea is foreign that's why when you're in the muscle realm it completely hides and conceals the idea the content right i'm using a muscle to understand something when you're in the thrust in of the muscle of the the muscle hides the idea and and you needed to hide the idea because the idea itself like moshe said i hear conceptually but i don't get it give me a muscle you know materialize it concretize it so then you go give a muscle when you give the muscle you have to when you're in the muscle mode it hides the idea that you bring it as a muscle for let's continue inside of the game guess what when you have a muscle a good muscle if it's a good muscle it completely obscures the nimsho the moral you hear that um but afterwards when you succeed in revealing the idea out of the muscle and you see how the two go together surely the muscle is not the idea commission has the idea before a mushroom was given to it the the ma the segal was more pure more refined when i apply a muscle to understand the seiko and then i say oh now i understand to say ho let me ask you is that cycle now as pure as it was before no it's been tainted by the muscle and it needs to be tainted by the muscle but the fact is it's not the same in its purity um however is it a different seiko no the muscle is a muscle for this idea and not for another idea but nevertheless the way this idea was pre-muscle is not the same it was post-muscle it's the very same idea that invests itself in the martial ella schuberth but in a different but it is in a different character than before so again that's why i used before the dna is the same but the application of it is very different and now that brings it back to the parser the curtain the spiritual idea what does it mean that there's a person in the curtain is hung up kind of metaphorically speaking of the lower world is created it's created through a curtain meaning the light of asilos is too heavy it's too awesome i can't handle it moshe pinto right but hello parsa is different than simpson i don't know who's going to say it here it's a very good point you made hasida spends a lot of pages on this the difference between parsa and simsu but the idea is the same so for now we're gonna leave it let's continue and he says [Music] the accomplishment of the curtain is analogous hello it's analogous to the cycle being expressed moisture through the muscle avi are you with me you know i don't know if you tell me something do you understand what i'm saying i don't want to be speaking to a wall hello it's a little bit complicated for me and i can't say that i'm getting it 100 okay okay good it's like is the pasta like the filter yes yes another the the the ishta salute is more like uh going from one room to another and it's different but the the is like existing flower right and that's a good muscle really very good because because you only mentioned that symptom symptom is a more a greater obscurity you hear that thicker parser he i like the word sifting you know shifting the flower kind of it's less obscure but it's still an obscurity it's still a occur it's still a a blockage of sorts and it's necessary because the r would be too too great the energy would be too great too overwhelming the teacher you want to a muscle in gossamis measure right a teacher must break down his information so that students understand and so you have one level of breakdown which is called parser and you have a greater level of breakdown which is called simpson so that's basically the difference between the two let's continue inside hade who are you told now he says this or that we have now in bria or yatsiran or each level coming from matsilos it's what we call an ursultum it's a derivative it explains behind the simultaneously it's not something completely different because it is yet the dna is the same it's cosma so since the dna is the same you can't say it's something completely different it has a different amount a different application less paragraph thereby says this comparison is cannot be compared to if when you compare hofmann vaccinos to higher to the infinite ainsoft that's wrong you hear that hashem possesses every virtue you're in a sin including the virtue of but can you say god is no that's what he says here then has no comparison to the infinite god ain't soft about see rules there's an emanation so therefore it becomes some kind of reality in the world so in other words you see yoni when do we use the concept of parsa the curtain when you're talking about going from khaksilas to khashoggi because over there to begin with they're not so distant so yes there is a difference but since the difference is still a light distance an easier distance all you need is a curtain a light sheer uh concealment of the energy for the next experience to take place but if but on a higher level when you compare this to god there it's not enough for parser and that's why we won't we don't use the concept of powers of there but we use the concept of tsim tsum i hope that answers your question so simpson usually is used on at silos compared to higher when you talk about silos and lower you use the idea of person and he says on monday sunday we're going to learn but on monday hopefully we'll learn too and then we'll learn to kiss her and maybe i'll try to see if i can come across some more micholim and ideas to explain this um better you know try another angle so that we we find it more practical but i just want to say we have a myth two minutes left that lots of people when they learn such things in khasid they get impatient and they put away the safer and they say no i don't want to learn this and this is what i said before and yeshiva that was the time when you like had the patience to deal with these things and i could just you know i can't say it in words because it's not but when you learn this enough it becomes very real and it becomes part of you and it's enjoyable i remember i remember you brought back memories of how i spent a lot of time thinking about the difference between parsa and and and simpson i remember in morristown you know and it was i also didn't know i started to learn i started to ask and i started to think and i started to debate until it grows on you so you know we need to do the same thing not not to not to give up and to and to know that the more we learn the more we'll understand and see its relevance we will see its relevance you know and frankly even if you don't see it's relevance it's like we're learning godliness we're learning tighter and it's it's healthy when you learn these things it puts you it puts it puts us elsewhere it puts us elsewhere so all day we're driving a car we have to buy the groceries gotta get the kids off to school gotta deal with the closures and then test all these gossipings when you take a half an hour 45 minutes an hour you'll see this and you shut down the whole world around you it's it's wonderful even if it's only ethereal at times and you say well how does that make a difference what i have to do later the answer is you're now more refined you're thinking about ellie kus and you're thinking about holly cous that's what it's all about which we'll talk about a bit hashem sunday morning for my youn my yummy lettuce birthday cheer yes what'd you say honestly do know i just wanted to say that um that's the same thing in this every mother tongue you know we've spent hours with with fishy trying to understand you know and uh it right like you heard you heard that what the honest and said pleasant memories pleasant memories because it's you know and but but i i you know relate to what moshe said earlier and and there is quite a bit out there of people that don't have the patience or interest they say and you know you know and that's why in a way moosa muslims like more practical give me practical stuff you know what what do you what are you telling me these these ideas so the frida kadaba already wrote two countries and he writes over there how through the learning of hasidis it puts you in a different place where you become an overall higher person meaning so of course i'm not dealing with cleanliness and orderliness and procrastination and impatience and anger and guilt and love that's musa you don't need hasidis for that learn muslim hasidis wants to change the entire ethos of a person's mind and when a person's mind is changed they're a very different person and what was important before might not be important now and and and things will be other things will become important yes motion i just want to say for that that what you just said i really appreciate it i just want to say this sunday i just i'm just putting this out there i'm just wondering because it's you're going to be your birthday maybe that's really an appropriate time to forbring a little bit i'm gonna do that we're gonna do that i i understand but i'm just wondering if maybe if for some of the cover here and also for yourself i'm just on a one-off i'm just wondering especially if it's sunday maybe maybe for us in the evening like let's say that i'm just throwing this out maybe nine o'clock in the evening here just whole time it means two o'clock florida time maybe that might be like a little better because maybe we could just uh maybe here would be a little bit easier for us to some of us i i i don't mind but we tried the sukkah so remember we only had two three people i mean you know i don't want to i don't want to you know uh you know not have everyone that comes every day four five six people you know i'm saying i can't do it twice because i have a very busy schedule i'm pulled from all sides so it's either okay so maybe all right so i don't know man i don't know maybe maybe we'll just keep the shoe then i i think i think though i mean like you know other people if it's the middle of the day they're not working a lot of people so whoever wants to join that if maybe you can send out a whatsapp or something that's you know the dolphin's 60th birthday is making up a brand if you'd like to join you know join i i said no where are you going you going to miami yeah to my son and daughter yeah which neighborhood hallendale next to hollywood yeah yeah i know what that is very cool if you bump into a friend of mine berger give his name okay saigon to everyone have a great shabbos and we'll see everyone take care bye-bye thank you
