Even When Your Light Is Blocked, Your Sun Is Not Effected

okay good morning everybody so in the last two classes we uh learned the first uh the first section the first peric first chapter of the miami of the balatanyas bahar and uh usually at the end of the period you just go to the next panic but here there's a little kitzer that's probably the tomah sadiq wrote so we could read the kitser and it'll be a better summation than i will give because my summations tend to uh digress so kitser you see where we are mem olive column 2 or page 81. the beginning of the miami spoke about what the gemara says in shambhas that if israel would keep too shabbas and they would be redeemed and explain what means to shabbasa remember that there's two levels in each chapters which we're going to get back till we're going to get back to then he discussed indian oilless thomas indian oil shabbos you see how the kitchen is then he discussed the fact that shabbos is aliyah soilamus euler's shabbos means everything goes up on shabbos everything is reframed on shabbos everything is reinterpreted on shabbos but in order for that to happen you first need the oilas tumid which is day there's a particle of shabbos every day during davine and when you reframe your life during davaning then everything could go up on shabbas then he asked the question mao pirish aliyah why do you have to go up anywhere isn't god everywhere what does it mean to even go up and then from this he went into the whole subject of why the soul came into the body which was a great descent but it's also khalia for a deeper ascent he doesn't get into the specifics he's just giving the outline of the structure of the first panic and of course the last major point that he we learned was that the difference between the neshama and everything else in existence even malachim even angels meaning not only physical existence even spiritual existences that everything is defined as hashem's deeper is defined as divine thought versus divine speech and that's the reason why by the neshama the expression is right everywhere else it doesn't say about anything hashem blew he spoke he didn't blow by an it says he blew the soul of life into admiration what's the difference obviously it's a metaphor the difference is it says when you speak speaking is more external that's why people could speak for hours and not get too exhausted everybody else gets exhausted but it's blowing yeah when you blow chauffeur so you can blow for a while but not for very long why because the ponemias the prenimiya something for much deeper something internal so this is like a metaphor there's a difference between speech which is externalized it could become it becomes separate from me it goes outside of me when he calls allah and sometimes you could be quiet silence versus makshava which is also a lavish it's a garment but it's a lavus it's always there with me it's an internal garment and it reflects the person to themselves thought is how i process myself to myself hopefully in most cases the makshava is a good level it expresses who i am it always expresses who i am but sometimes the makshava expresses one aspect to the microsoft express another aspect here we're talking about the divine thought here we're talking about the divine thought so the divine thought that's what an ashama is so it's completely from the premiers of elocus if that's the case the question is why did it come down what type of ali are you looking for when this is the neshama and he explained also why we say in davonin right real empathy and compassion when we think of empathy we think it's but really what he says in this mind mirror is empathy means that you recognize greatness right you have empathy on something or somebody that really ought to be in a better place a higher place so itself doesn't only bring out the pain it also brings out the exaltedness which causes the pain once you realize who you are you're part of them that's why empathy compassion is so powerful because it underscores the depth of the soul it underscores the contrast between who it is and the irida the descent experience it goes through that was the last point and this is all from aliyah what is that alley that's the very brief summation of patek aleph now will continue painting the base that's a good question so the truth is that here he doesn't bring the word vayipa i'm bringing it from uh in tanya perrick base and then aguero satruva and tanya he does bring the he brings both so the truth is that it brings out different aspects of polymes there's one aspect that's brought out through blowing there's another aspect that's brought out through uh through neshama through uh and the truth is by by a person it also says just for it says over there too because the shaman has to also go through a process until it goes into the goofs over there there's also a deeper but in its irish and it's in its core it's an indian of machava so it's different stages in the evolution of the soul itself remember the soul itself goes through a pretty serious process from from all the way down to uh entering into the person's body and the metaphor the famous metaphor tanya is a child a child begins as the seed or the egg of the father and the mother right child is actually begins pre-that it's it's rooted in in in the very essence of the mother's body and the father's body and then there's the seed and the egg but that still is not a child that goes through a whole process there has to be a release and it has to be conception and uh and internalization until it develops into an embryo and the keyboard the synthesis and the cell is emerges and then from there a whole fetus has to be developed until there's a full-fledged baby so the question is on which dimension of the child are you talking about right when your mother sees you she doesn't see what i see right when a mother looks at somebody even if her son is 60 years old what does she see a baby i miss some mothers never even think that their child ever left the womb in his diminion he left in his own imagination it's your problem it's not her problem so there's different st you understand that's a metaphor there's different stages in in the alignment of the of the soul with its source yeah yeah of course but davening is the conscious the time to consciously uh create that alignment consciously doing it and it's also a special time and an energy that your bonus shall islam provides whether it's chakras mainly it's chakras obviously then there's the words of rabbi says person which also means to be in that state uh to understand the concept of this aliyah this this my mind is a is a it's a pretty have it's pretty deep mind mindmen so a lot of concepts and it's along my middle so things will become clearer also as we continue to understand to begin to understand the aliyah meaning what do we mean the aliyah what the soul achieves in its journey of this world so let's go back to the text of davening chakras again the same section of allah right after baraku the first blessing before krishna which he already discussed part of that when he spoke about barack obama right so the next paragraph is what's the literal translation over there so it is butter clutter it's just good to us to know what the text of davening is says to they know mulcain of three expressions our creator our king and our redeemer should be blessed for eternity what's buddha kadosham the one who creates holy ones the name of our king should be praised forever now it's a mushroom he forms servants mashaarsamba those who serve him and his servants they stand in the height of the world of mashmiyan because it's just tiny little nuanced differences but that's the this text i think is almost identical she's going to focus on these words most people would say to them but the next sentence the holy ones every day praise you salah the gemara says in arabic means eternity for eternity always consistently so who's the kadaish main assets to the shamans the quran and that's why it comes after that's why it comes after kedusha right the cousin says you do not whatever it is you go through what the malachim says kaddish kaddish kaddish lu massimo kim valemia it's another group of angels that say barakwest which is a repeat of what we did earlier before krishna just now you do it in hazardous shots and right after that you just spoke about the hallelujah in kedusha she says two separate things first you say they say the kedusha the order of holiness that comes from the angels examining these three sections i don't want anybody to feel estranged so there's three parts of the skuddish condition there's also three different sections once you finish with the angels that's kedusha now we go to the souls why did the malachan come first and hashem a second quesadilla because you go in an order from lower to higher first the holiness that comes out from the malacca malachim have some form of body he's going to explain what he means by a goof doesn't mean a physical organism like a human being or a mammal but the fact is means holy literally holy chairs holy holy animals holy living beings right so he says [Music] speaking about an angel means his body the via is a body the guth is katashish is made out of the type of uh um marble stone which is again what does it mean it says in in tehillim it says in kofta are made out of a glowing fire age loyalty the ramban explains that in the four elements a shrub i am offer the guf of the malachim is made out of asian ruach because asian ruach fire and ear are much more subtle less earthy less brute they're more subtle elements just like we see in the physical world the difference of fire ear versus water and earth earth is extremely tangible water is more tangible even though it's fluid ruach you can't even see with your eyes and then you have ace we could see with your eyes but completely intangible you can't hold it so there's different you say there's different elements the malachi and the pasta says are made from asian noodles but the fact that you're describing that they're made of asian ruach is already a description connected to now when you say a goof it's just important to understand he doesn't mean here a physical body don't have a physical body the definition of a malek is spiritual but he means that the energy within spirituality itself it's more concrete it's more tangible in itself it comes down in a more concrete tangible way so a goof could be also exist on different levels that's why i'll say that occupy space what does it mean they occupy space does again it doesn't mean it doesn't mean space physically the gamora says so great takes 500 years it's on to go through this malach takes 500 years of walking a third of the universe what does all this mean the fact that you're describing even these terms you're already talking about the guth it's important understanding these things in a subtle way when you say space it doesn't mean physical space the rambam says this physical space in the spiritual space spiritual space means a certain state in which you're in like for example somebody will say a svara allah an idea and you'll say i'll say in swarm zoo this idea has no space which means no space there's no space on the table there's no space in the bench in the basement for this one this is what a hot cane in yiddish hot cane artist there's no space for this idea there's no space for this idea you can't fit it into the shoe muck i'm here doesn't mean there's no physical space it has no space meaning there's no space in the world where it could exist because it's foolish it's folly it's it's an architect so makaim could mean different things there's makkah and gash me passion something that occupies physical space something that occupies makkah but it also has a particular space that you could say something that's related to gash me real rouhni doesn't have the is not defined by a space or not a space so therefore if they exist in some form of space they must also exist in some form of time because space and time always go together in fact he says they were created as one this is today after einstein this is like a biggie site that space that time is a property it's one of the dimensions of reality it's not an absolute reality in fact time is relative based on the macram desmond changes also but that's a geval degree literally of our times of the 20th century that you know changed physics and changed science but to here he says it that's man and malcolm is one it's one prince it's expressed one way in time and it's expressed another way in space and therefore they're always relative to each other so if you speak about malachim in terms of space you're also talking about time and therefore yes and therefore they have a fixed time when they say shira the khazal is are not defined by space and they're not defined by time they're called kidashim the word kaidish means holy but the real definition of kaidish is completely aloof rashi says qaddashim to you prusum to you a loof of what a loof of any type of definition even a spiritual definition which imposes space or time the way it is innately pristine it's completely beyond any tangible definition that connects it to time or space unlike the malachim volcan and therefore the soul doesn't stop singing you say after the malachim which is time and space the zukudosham the souls who are kudos they're completely beyond any definition of and even every day it sell it's always in other words there's no time that it doesn't exist because it's not defined by time as it says until they go from strength to strength the gemara says at the end of brachas they shared this is a statement there's no such a thing as moving spiritually without music without singing without a song call hiloch valia when a soul needs to move and transport itself from one space to another place space it's always ayuday sheer it's always through song share so that's the connection where the sheer is always because it's always ascent it's always ascending it's always there's no time that it's not and there's no space it's not because it's beyond making and beyond's mind it's the concept of seller we're talking about the new shaman now innately not the guff the neshama itself that's in the summer um this is the famous mission in shabbos in the pair behemoth what when you take out an animal on shabbos so there's an expression in mishnah is called balay hasher yoitsen basher winning bashir in hebrew also means a color like you know the color you have on a on a dog or another domesticated animal so the mission says cold barley hasher all animals that have a share that have a a leash a collar yuetzen basher you could take them out shabbos to the public domain by it's not called carrying because it's like a garment it's like you go out with a shirt you go out with a jacket on choppers you're allowed a while to go with the shirt and champions you carry the answer is because there's no kiev on champions to walk without clothes just happen right it's like the person walks out you're wearing glasses you're wearing a hat you wing it's not if you're carrying it it's derek khalavus so this is part of the animal with them shaken by and they could be pulled they could be drawn in order they shouldn't get lost even though it's shabbos and there's no aerith that's called balochistan the word sher means a color a leash but it also covers the same letters like sheer so alter everyone said my man and he said call balay hashir all the ballet hashir all the masters of shira of music which is in whenever they want to go out of themselves and they want to go up to a higher space it's always bashir it's always through a music through a song and when they want to communicate when they want to be mamshach the mata downward it's also it's also through a that's what he's saying here all hillary and aliyah what are the wings of the soul what are the instruments that an ashama uses when it wants to transport itself from one place to another place and the answer is negina right if you want to go from one place to another place you use your feet if it's a little far you may use a car if it's very far you may use a boat or in today's days an airplane right but what are the wings of the soul the soul also wants to move how does the soul move and the answer is call hillary valley right they share it's true that's the power of that's the power of the power of also another point kadoshim is in the plural doesn't say kaddush because there's not one space that you go to the kedoshim is deeper and deeper and deeper bezel and that's why the praise is eternal and he explains what's the idea of praising when we say halal what does it mean to praise they just sit and praise the whole day hashem needs all these compliments he says no hilo which is the word halal really what it means is it's not you're sitting and giving me compliments all day that's not what hillary is hillel which means praise it means something else it's the pleasure it comes from the saga saga means comprehension experience the saga and the tainough and the ecstasy the delight in a lacusan godliness the zelda and that's really the definition of ghanaian what's going on is bastard it's the ecstasy it's the pleasure the geshmaq of the souls but sagasam as they comprehend as they contain the radiance of the divine presence that relationship that experience is full of light and full of pleasure and you praise it praising is the experience of ecstasy the melting away in the pleasure and simcha that is the praise out of the gemara says to be judged and ultimately come to alam even though there is the pain of gannon in order for the pleasure even of ghane which is the lower level of paradise but there's really many many states of consciousness that's why it's kudos foreign even though generally in swarm when he says he means swarm of kabbalah there's usually two levels ghanaian aliens so he says gala it only means that they reveal to us two levels and that's even those that they revealed it to them it's not just words but really he says so that's why the praise is constant it's never interrupted why because my state of consciousness today is for today but tomorrow there's a much deeper time when i reach and i experience much more um so there's two words it says it says they praise your name she says that's significant not you but your name now what's the difference that's that we say in hebrew they praise your name they don't say they praise you they praise your name he says no this is very significant with all what we're saying about a soul and kedosha all the way to the highest level it's beyond time it's beyond space there's infinite levels and therefore it's selah still it's yeshtab and this is expressed in the maya mechazal this is abraham they enjoy they bask in the radiance ziv means the light the yiddish the upshine the glimmer the ray of the shechina it doesn't say it says that's the expression in the murder bizarre nicholas in gemara it's going to be called ziv if you look in zayar the term is going to be light same concept the light emanates from the source of light it's the zif it's a zif ziv are the same concept the expression innate science this is already that result is arranged south this you're not going to have a gamora or in zoya do you have that the writings of that reason when he wants to describe godliness the expression is the light that is infinite the light of infinity we take an example of the light of the sun that shines it casts its light on iris is earth veladaram and those who live on earth like we say in the morning amer villa darim allah the sun casts its light on the la on the planet not just on us on the planet that's response responsible for all vegetation and produce and photosynthesis all you need light without light nothing is going to happen the energy of our planet but there's also la doria mala those who live on the planet we also enjoy the sun personally the light of the day what vitamin d vitamin d of course the light is a zif it's a ray it's it's a radiance from the sun the next of the f but relative to the core to the source of the light it's considered like north like iron iron is north and ephesus is nothingness what do we mean it's very significant the light of the sun is very very significant there would be no life on our planet if the sun took a vacation the question is what's the relationship of a ray of light that comes from the sun and gives you your vitamin d or allows your garden to produce its fruits or brings light or heat into your home or into your body what is that ray what is the significance of that ray relative to the solar core they call it the solar core the eczema itself is there won't even be a change in the sun if you decide if the clouds are going to block the sun or you're going to pull down the the blinds and the the window of your home is going to block the sun and therefore the light won't be allowed to travel through because you blocked it he says it doesn't create any change but hashemish in the core of the sun it's not like the sun is going to come home crying you know they didn't accept my light the sun remains completely wholesome wholesome even though the ray wasn't allowed to travel because it was blocked it's extremely significant for the recipient of the light it's very significant because that ray may have everything it may be his entire source of energy but to reduce the entire sun to the ray of light is ridiculous the ray of light is comes from the sun it's an aspect of the sun and it's a true genuine reflection of the sun but what is it relative to the solar core he says it's cai in the ephesus in the solar court itself it wouldn't have even any substance we notice it because it's outside of the sun safe that's why the zayar and arizona always use the word orange safe why not the ancients of the iren's always the the entire consciousness that is responsible for all the energy of the world it's true it's like the light of the sun but it's ultimately a heart means a ray hamish pasha which extends from him like the light of the sun that comes from the sun why is this so important we'll soon see but one aspect i just want to emphasize right away is you always have to know the difference between the core of the sun and the light of the sun in your own life the light of the sun gives tremendous chios it gives as i said our life here is dependent on it ms but you cannot define the sun by the ray of the sun and even if there's a distortion in the ray meaning it gets blocked it's not like the sun got destroyed the sun didn't get it not only didn't get destroyed didn't get compromised it didn't get distorted and that's extremely an important idea because what it's saying is if we're going to use the concept of me sorry using it as a metaphor for our life in your own life as we'll see later in the miami there's two aspects there's the core and there's the the earth is that which comes out in a revealed way and is internalized by you but that could never capture the full essence and a change in that will not distort the essence so let's say a person goes through on a practical level let's say a person goes through different experiences in life right that turn their life into darkness there's no oil anymore the earth gets blocked there could be blockages that block as he gives an example of clouds that's one type of darkness and another type of darkness is you shut the wind the window shutters the colloidables you don't let it in it's two different types one is this clouds and one is the person actually closes the windows or they never open the window in the house so the air doesn't reach into the person so you could think that it affects the essence of the shema she says no no no it never affects the essence of the chemist the essence of the sun is never ever affected by that the question is how much did the ray travel and is experienced by the recipient according to their level now this is only a metaphor because we don't have the sun in our house if you would have the sun in your house we would all be toast we would eat ourselves for breakfast as good toast if there would be something to say left to eat it but the metaphor here is for earning saif when you talk about the light of hashem he says it's only the light it's not the enzyph and the light shouldn't be confused with the inside even though the light is everything but it's also i in the efforts so even if there's a change in the air it's only a change in how much you can experience the light but in the essence of the ain't scythe there's never ever any distortion and that's one of the biggest ciders the big ideas that are going to be conveyed that there's no such a thing that a person's core is dark that a person's core is destroyed that a person's core is lost the difference between light and darkness can only happen on a level of oil not on a level of atom in the state of etzem there is always wholesomeness i you say the light didn't travel anywhere it was completely completely snuffed out of me but the eczema shemesh is fully fully present the question is how do i find the tools to be able to access that part of me so in a very vivid way what it means is that sometimes a person experiences in life traumas or wounds that results in a certain perception of who they are but you always have to be able to make a distinction between the perception of who you are and who you are perception is a big thing because that's what we live with we live with light we live with perception right that's what we live with i'm always telling myself who i am but perception of self is not self perception of self is the earth that comes from the self you understand what i'm saying so this is a very important distinction to be able to always know that the sun the core is infinite the core is divine the core is sacred and the core is always in a state of wholesomeness and perfection distortion can happen on a level of light never on a level of essence clar i'm just trying to bring out right away you understand it's not some philosophical uh abstract ideas about etcetera it has extremely profound relevance to a person's life when a person knows that everything is different because you always have a reference point of wholeness and that wholeness is essential now we go further this light had to go through meaning many filters in order for the kadosham for the holy ones to be able to absorb it to be able to really experience it if i look straight at the sun i'm going to be blinded you have to look through special glasses in other words the light has to be filtered for me to be able to really absorb it and internalize it they could land on the moon at the moment they're not landing at the sun even with jeff bezos's money nobody's landing on the sun if they want somebody to land there has to be some sumim you have to have filters this dimension the desire called light in madrish it's called the name or or in tanakh it's called the name so now we have another another reference commercial picture of elizabeth gimble there's a famous message called the chapters of rebellion attributed to rabbi eliezer haggadah rabbi elizabeth who was one of the greatest tanoyam of his generation the rabb of rabbi akiva lived at the end of the bias cheney after her chain rebellion is called rebel ezra the great so he says these are his words before the world was created what existed hashem and his great name alone what does this mean i understand pre-creation hashem existed what does it mean his name existed he and his name it's a very interesting expression before bree assumes that hashem existed only him in his name don't think anybody else him and his name which name exactly existed when he had a name he had a reputation exactly it's already not belvati so he says everything this is a very interesting expression when it says in-game it says in zoya oh it says innate arranged surf and it says in particular shame it's all one could it's all one cavanagh to understand the vitality to understand that the vitality of godliness that gives life to all the worlds don't think it redefines the atmosphere why do they use different words because that's how it is every madrish every person speaks in a different language every matter speaks with different metaphors different parables it says that when he spoke he gave three thousand mashallah metaphors parables it doesn't mean three thousand metaphors on different things no one thing could be conveyed in three thousand ways that's how he touches it one thing you could say in three thousand different ways you hear so maybe you could call it you call it shame if you go to tanakh you won't find this metaphor of urbai ain't safe but you'll find a lot shame hashem hashem's name what's the relationship of your name to you let's take the name of avram he uses the name of ram for obvious reasons first of all it starts with an aleph and second of all it's the first jew what's the relationship of the name they give you to you to you what would you say on one hand it's your name it's not somebody else's name it's your name and when i call you by that name you turn around but he says he can't compare the words of the name furthermore if you were living alone on an island you don't need the name right when you when you're when you're communicating to yourself do you first call yourself my name i want to tell you something the name you don't need for yourself imkosa on the other hand on the other hand the name is not separate your energy is enclosed in the letters of the name question question but all of the living creatures the living animals to adam and whatever the name he gave it that became his name what's the big dish anybody could what did he needed adam so it's explained in swarm the shallow famously explains that hashem says hashem told them adam's wisdom is greater than yours because you can't give anybody names adam could give names what's the big deal call this a table and there's a tissue box and there's a cup the answer is the names in lash and coidesh are not random names they are channels for the unique spiritual chemistry of that particular item in other words a lion has to be called an arya and mayam water has to be called memud mem because the physical and spiritual chemistry of water what is it two atoms of of of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen right huh h2o so mem mem and ud member than men right two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen you need those letters the spiritual chemistry of water which is the source of the physical chemistry of water goes through these letters because every letter of the olive base is a different number a different form and a different energy and a different meaning you can't confuse it unless you don't want to end up with water you want to end up with fire then you have olive shin you want a rock you need olive beige noon so when adam gave a name hammer gummel sure sus aries dove number whatever the name is these are not random names it's names that are channels for the theos and on the other hand what's the relationship of you and your name if you wouldn't have a name if you would have had another name it would be funny right but would your personality change would you change would your essence change maybe sometimes it affects your personality what's the relationship of the name to the person it's not just random we all agree this should be called a table tomorrow we decide if webster mr webster decides that a table is a chair and a chair is a table i mean it won't be convenient but okay it's not gonna destroy the world it's fine a table is a chair and a chair is a table today in america they're constantly doing these things they ain't cannot make them but uh that goes into the letters of this name and it comes from the asarama maurice from the 10 utterances oh that exhibit shame it's also true with a person what was your name before your soul came into your body anybody knows so the altar says the soul before it comes into the goof doesn't have a name it's nameless it doesn't have a name like so who does the name belong to the body what's a corpse going to do with the name so what's the name for the soul doesn't have a name the body doesn't need a name hashem the name represents the link the connection the life force that comes from the soul and gives vitality the body that gets nishras nisr means how do you say it nisrash becomes rooted anchored in the name the name captures that shidduch that that between the shaman guff soul and his body is conveyed in the first two letters because soul and body represented the dimension of seeing which is allah i saw the pain of the jewish people that's reuven eyes the result says that when our parents give a name there's an element of divine inspiration that's why sometimes grandparents get upset that the name that the children gave they don't have to get upset it's it's an indian of ruach you don't have to take it personally but arizona says it's by leigh says it's deeper she sought she didn't have to rely she saw her she saw the energy so melissa she called him i'll say rashi bring she said the difference between and the son of my father-in-law asaph it also says that she said um what was logic i just want to learn another few lines just to finish the nakuda any big thing that needs to filter itself in order to provide life for a lower state of consciousness that's always the name that's what a name means the definition of a name is not for me if i would remain completely connected to me i don't need a name the name represents when you say the name of something it represents he says dover hagal a great thing that needs to filter itself to be communicated to another space that relationship that symptom is defined by what is your name just like we say this person has a name what does a name mean a reputation right you have this name this name what does reputation mean the way you're perceived by people is that who you are is that who i think you are when i say i know your name what do i know that's what i know i know your name do i know you even with yourself do you know you or do you know yourself through your name he says the soul itself doesn't have a name because it is it but when i talk to myself i always talk my to myself sometimes not always i could talk to myself through my name which means i don't mean me name as a particular name i also mean through my name which means i talk to myself through my reputation that i have with myself you also have a reputation for yourself you know right the fact that your reputation you have of yourself is much more important than reputation that's experienced by other people because that reputation really defines you how do you think of yourself he says that's name the name is not you it's how you process yourself or in other words it's your iron it's the light it's the light of the sun it's not the sun it's the way the sun is processed into my house how do i know about the sun i'm not on the sun i'm not the sun i see a certain expression of the sun is that expression real absolutely yes and absolutely not it's real because it came from the sun but is it is it real is this the whole sun of how do you compare to the sun itself it's an aspect that comes in so whenever something has to be communicated into a different realm a different world it always has to go through a simpson it always has to go through a filter that communication is what ghazal will define by the word name your name just like by unashamed itself doesn't have a name then before itself doesn't need a name the goof itself is a corpse the connection the way that hashem enlightens and informs and is experienced in the goof that's the name captures and so forth so it's very significant the name it's the channel of kios but what he is that he is that's communicated like the light of the sun to the to to the to the lower space the famous madrish it says speaks about it that there's three type there's three dimensions to every person this is who you are this is who you think you are and is who other people think you are it's who you are this is who you think you are and then that's who other people think you are so the last two that's where the name comes in the name is how i define you oh avraham yitzhak yakov it could be a false name might see shame it could be a beautiful name but it's still a name it's the way i have access to you how do i have access to you through your name so it doesn't only mean technically i call you by your name but it also means spiritually i have access to you through the energy being filtered in a particular way and that's how i process you and you always have to be able to make that distinction between the name and the substance somebody once wrote a song about somebody else he says the only thing we knew about bob was that his name was not bob right the only thing we knew about bob is that his name was not bob it's only think we knew about him that his name was not his name so what is what is this allah dhamma for the indian of istanbul so he finishes off this is the last the last point when you're expressed to others how do i express my essence could i i express myself through my name that's what name is name is expression it's a tool of expression that's that's yeah so that's why when somebody is ill they'll may come in and maybe add a name because since the letters of the name are channels of energy right like we learned about adam so therefore you want to create so to speak newt sinoiros new channels of energy so we add the name so add a name to create so to speak like a new channel a new new sinner a new conduit a new conduit for us but the atsa mahashama itself he says before it's born doesn't have a name that's why a name we give only later after the soul comes into the gulf whether it's by the british or by a girl by kris whatever it is but that's when you give the name because the name represents already the way the neshama is concretized and goes through a symptom in order to be able to be malubish in the goof and that's not in the shaman itself the gemara says in nida that in the summer in the womb when the child is in the womb of the mother it sees from one end of the world to the other end of the world why don't i see from one end of the world to the other end of the world and the answer is once the soul settles in the body now the soul has to function through the body the moment a person passes away well before we're born the soul also sees but the soul doesn't see through the eyes the soul sees through the soul's eyes and the soul's eyes don't limit your vision for a half a mile or even a mile the vision is from one end of the world to the other end of the world the same is true with hearing and understanding in other words the soul goes through a process where now everything is functioning through the body the electricity of the soul is through the gut that's what the name captures it's very significant because this is the but it's the concept of the light of the sun and where is the core the core is always here it's just the core is beyond name and it's always be able to make that distinction to be able to know are you describing the name of the person are you describing the person with yourself also because often you could live your whole life only within the world of names this name that name right i have this name i have that name i don't only mean if you have a this name or that name you know the yeshiva or the shidduch system i'm talking about even spiritually it's to be able to go from names to essence that's where the person could connect the outer with the inner but this process of dover guddal coming into something else always needs a symptom and therefore that's what a name is a name is how do i define you and when i define you it's already not you it's the way i define you based on my tools based on what i could receive and based on what i could receive how do i do that that's defined by shame in other places it's defined by art okay we'll take a break here everybody have a wonderful day the next year of this mimer will be here monday morning 7 45 but is russia so the net bahamas is just this this curtain or these right so remember we once learnt the mimer that even when there's an indian of course it's only on the king of yakov israel meaning the atsam hanasham what's cut off is the way that the neshama is communicating and flowing into the body the that always remains whole always remains intact it's very interesting [Music] the flow is interrupted just like sometimes the core of the the core of the neshama always remains no that's what we're learning here that the flow is already the way the earth becomes filtered and it's condensed that's what its symptom is it goes through a process like a name when i say i know your name i don't know your essence i know a certain aspect of yourself that i can obtain that i can understand that i can relate to just like the light of the sun i have the light of the sun here i have the essence of the sun i don't have that to the sun i did something so when i say i know your name or i praise your name it means that and over there there can be a lot of interruptions like he says you could close the shutters of the window the the the clouds can completely eclipse the light of the sun and it's dark or at least it's somewhat dark why because the sun is blocked but the sun itself wasn't destroyed it's blocked from my vision i don't see it i don't experience the warmth i don't experience the heat from my perspective it's a pretty rainy and lousy dreary day but if you go above the clouds the sun is shining right it says that khatayama compared to clouds above the clouds you know sometimes the plane goes above the clouds and the sun is beautiful in every person's life you have that sometimes the clouds obstruct the flow so the so the sun's light doesn't travel to me doesn't give me the vitamin d but uh but uh the clouds will dissipate the clouds will uh will move or be blown away and then the sun appears right right so the dimension of the neshama it's called yaakov versus israel that's what he says in the mirror dimension of yakov could be cut off that lifeline that pipe so to speak gets cut so the oxygen is not flowing all the way down right so even even karis it's not that they're cut off completely in other words forever for eternity because they're always on the good of the neshama that remains connected with then there's no issue then the whole chorus could be cancelled remember if a person does true they can get rid of karus because based in shalamata the court here can't cancel a punishment but in heaven i'm saying if i come if i did in a very i come to bed and i said i repented there's nothing they can do but lagabe hashem if you repent it's all over so there's no kara's bakla karius is only if there was no truth if there's truth there's no cutters but chorus is only heavenly right but i'm saying if he did truva if he did shove it down here then then he could cancel the whole chorus true that helps so there's no chorus that makes that pipeline it recreates it and then another interesting question is that today baklava we don't have chorus ready for many generations since the time of the base amiga there's no chorus right you have a person he did sins of karis but there's no chorus so when he gary satrubin and part of tangy the balatanga explains because for courage to happen you have to be in a place where your full energy is coming from your divine soul but if the energy is coming from other sources then there's no cause you understand what i'm saying karis is a compliment in other words just one second what well in gallows the shrine goes into exile so it sometimes feeds you the oxygen through external forces situacura it's distorted god goes into exile like if you look into humish when the jews in the midbar sinned yeah there were right away strong penalties a plague here playing there so we read these stories i'm like oh my god such sinners no no it's actually complementary they were so aligned that when they were misaligned it wreaked havoc it was a catastrophe when you're not aligned okay so next you know you continue if i'm living in a dysfunctional place i could continue if i'm completely functional you know what i mean right when you regain the alignment everything is different there's different consequences yeah yeah there's an issacharist but not chorus there's an issacharis i may be engaging in a prohibition which is chorus which is very serious yeah so the divine is that a personal thing if i if one person does have it doesn't mean anything it's a cloud it both are connected so yeah you mean you're saying even if it sounded good you're saying maybe there's exceptions of certain people i don't know but generally because there's no chorus today not the issue the punishment the penalty i'll give an example if if uh if somebody has a very good relationship with somebody else let's say a very close friends or a marriage and they're very close right so if somebody says something that's insulting there will be a a rupture and the pain will be palpable so when you see that you might say oh wow these people are so sensitive and fighting in another relationship where there's no closeness there won't be a rupture you know why because they don't care it's like shine it's like i grow accustomed to it the rupture is because there's a certain expectation there's an alignment so it's important to know the difference when you ask i'm sorry the other one we learned it we you have it online yeah yeah it's uh [Music] he says clearly very powerful line he says when it says the soul gets cut off it's only on yakiv but prince israel could never be separated from russia that's like the core of the sun even the clouds will not diminish the light of the sun itself the sun itself sure it's a pleasure to have you back we missed you okay some people i saw on zoom for two years but you i didn't see on zoom so you're not you're not a zoomer you're not a zoomer no it doesn't mean that you have to do business with everybody because sometimes the light gets blocked what it means is when a person looks at themselves or looks at another person you have to remember that at the core there's always infinite light but sometimes unfortunately my dark clouds can block my light and then i have to be careful with myself so you understand so that's important that was a really really amazing speech yeah yeah you understood a lot of it sometimes i was like but i'm very i'm very really i'm interested i was explaining to you already about like thank you for coming pleasure to have you you understood you're also 18 years old how old are you your classmates in bergen county torah academy okay we learned today about chemistry the name you're talking about you talked about biology a lot i realized why it's all fair it's all tolerant no but so i wanted to okay you were talking about like how each person the name so everyone is given a name yeah when they're born but that relates to their body and their soul it's the it's the shidduch of the soul in the body the soul itself doesn't have a name it doesn't need a name the body on its own is like dead it's like a refrigerator that's lifeless when the soul connects to the body that's after birth now we have a name we're given a name and the name captures that of that relationship and it's important because this name is a channel for this energy because your energy is not my energy we spoke about the dna right last time so your energy needs your name ruben needed to be called your own because that's who he was riya shimon was smeared in a different person different mission so you said also that there's three ways you can see yourself is who you are is who you think you are and that's who other people think you are very few people have all the three the same yeah should be a line but very few people but the thing is i think the most important because most people i think they live only caring about what they think of themselves of course yeah welcome to the club and you're only 18. yeah but the most important one is who you really of course the whole world we we all we have a perception yeah so what's the way to branch those two which is not as important as we really are yeah so that's what we're going to be learning about how we get closer to the essence but the first thing is you have to let go of thinking a whole day of how people think who you or what people think of you first thing is to recognize that there's such a thing [Music] when i was your age a little older so somebody came to yeshiva to speak to us his name is rabbi garcia and he told us he said what's the difference between a 20 year old and a 40 year old and a 60 year old so he said a 20 year old or an 18 year old is very self-conscious who am i who am i not which click do i fit in what type of hairdo what type of mahalak what type of group of friends who am i going to marry what do i look like you know i'm very aware of who i am and who i want to be and how people see me he says at 40 you reach a point you say you know what i couldn't care less what you think about me you don't like me you could jump into the hudson river or to the pacific this is who i am i don't care if you're looking at me this way you're looking at me that way this is who i am says at 60 you realize nobody was ever looking at you so it's a journey of time it's a journey but sometimes we could help ourselves already earlier cultivate certain attitudes that are helpful yeah of course of course yeah listen we come hard wired to be affected by our environment and different personality types are more sensitive and more effective you know these people whose brains are simply conditioned to be much more sensitive to feedback yeah how a person deals with truth yeah and never mind if there's trauma meaning if i experienced some form of danger early on in my life i may have to be on alert 24 hours a day you know i may always have to be i can't put down my guard because when i put down my guard i'm afraid what's going to happen so when a person experience that then they're in a very serious state of being a victim to other people's opinions i can't even think about me i i don't have the mental space you know imagine somebody is feels like they're in a lion's den all they can think about is dodging dodging the lion you know safety survival so imagine if i'm in that space you know what i mean i can't even do anything else you want me to think about me get me out of this den i'll start thinking about me yeah so this is the journey that all of us are involved in in one way or another it's just very interesting when you actually start to like you really think about the meaning of what because obviously everyone's like everyone grows up in a certain way they're like oh what are these people think about me what should i be doing but when you really think about it you start to understand like why does it even matter and then what's above yeah very good very good 18 going on 60. i like it but really it is that really you know it's an akuda hut so you're there more than you think yeah yeah yeah you're closer than you think yeah yeah okay great question so the kabbalah of the arizona theresa lived in the 1500s in svas and arizona was makhadesh he brought a lot of new ideas into kabbalah that weren't there before the ramak his teacher was like an encyclopedia he wrote like an encyclopedia of kabbalah he organized all the teachings till the arizona arizona continued that but arizona also you know developed and explained and very new profound concepts in kabbalah the baalha tanya is based on dariza his teachings are based on the reason but this goes into a genre that's called khasids what's the difference kabbalah the terminology is usually very abstract meaning it uses the language of spheres and gematrias and names and levels and worlds most of kabbalah is written in code language like a gida like a riddle you know there's a riddle and you have to undo the riddle yeah siddhis is the concept of darizal but the belatania especially tried to bring it down in a way that's applicable to a person's life a person's soul this was generally all the hasidic masters from the balsamic his system was called khabad which is because there was a tremendous focus on internalization intellectually and emotionally and viscerally that's the ability for a person to experience kayak which means the ability to absorb infinity bena is intellectual internalization and das is visceral internalization he connected to her to be connected so it's the teachings of the result there's no contradiction between arizona in fact he writes somewhere that he cannot ever contradict arizona because kaldvar of mapia leo whatever he said comes to leo and obviously can't contradict it but he developed it in that particular in a particular fashion that's what he tried to do yeah you're seeing all of my mother like this he takes the word ir and he analyzes and explains what does it mean and how is it going to apply to life et cetera because the word is always in kabbalah what does it really mean yeah another component is and this is also connected kabbalah is the language the spiritual language of the divine science of creation um i would say like this la havdel what mathematics is to what mathematics is what physics what mathematics is to physics is kabbalah to hasidis physics employs the language of math right you learn probably in school khasidis employs the language of kabbalah so kabbalah gives the language the the main theme of siddhis is to reveal the oneness the oneness of the world and the oneness of creation and the oneness in a person the language it uses is the spiritual language of kabbalah but the theme the the rabbi rashad once said the world thinks that siddhis is an explanation on kabbalah really kabbalah is an explanation on siddhis which means this is really coming to convey the oneness in life it uses the language of kabbalah to explain and to define it and the kabbalah shows how it works with all of the levels that are connected that it's but the theme of it what's the ultimate point that's that's what quesadillas tried to convey so there's a there is a symbiotic unity and oneness between the two you got what i'm saying a little bit i like that math to physics yeah they applied it to their own yeah yeah physics uses the language of math but it's not math in fact could have physics used another another language probably and maybe it would have been clearer uses the language of kabbalah that's the language it uses but it's the language of kabul all of this is about to warn us yeah but what i mean by oneness is the oneness in a person to be able to find oneness in your life we all have so many different personality so many different moods and instincts and emotions and sensations be able to see the oneness be able to see the oneness in other people they will see the oneness in the world oneness on every or bad just level that bad is part of oneness because this is not into duality they don't like the splits of course but that's what everybody is looking for you see today when you speak to young people about the split inside of them they're good part of their bad part it doesn't resonate why because the truth is everything is good just sometimes the good is processed in a way that it looks bad look at yourself you'll see you think you have bad parts say the truth no very good nobody taught you that you allowed to say that you don't have bad parts you just don't know how good you are so you think you have bad parts yeah yeah yeah no really life is just rosy the sun is shining yeah yeah and when you're in a bad mood yeah that's when you need some exercise yeah in a cold shower that's what that's what that's what helps them i don't know if he probably said in their own way but yeah the bad mood makes everything look bad it's not really bad it just makes me look it makes me see things your perception defines the reality if you have like if you're at a high level everybody's on a high level the question is how much i'm conscious of it remember the sun is never compromised because there's clouds sun is always present like in the moment it's like there's a shade in front of you you'll be able to see it right so we have to open the window we have to let let the clouds pass right even at night the sun is still around just i don't see it what's crazy that the sun is always around that's true yeah that's damas that's what it means to see the oneness to understand the oneness even the eight sahara right even the sahara it's not evil essentially it's not evil we call it the evil inclination right but the missionary says in brahes you should love hashem even with the yetzahara if it was so evil how can you love hashem with he ate sahara good question i heard once these are actually wants you to overcome it that's what it says in zoey the atar wants you your job is to make it harder for you to grow that's true so deep down the atari is not bad it's a horror is just it covers over the light in order for you to be able to reach your potential that's on one level on a deeper level even the negativity of the eight sahara is just a distortion of goodness it's just covering over the goodness in other words if you go deep down you'll see that even the atsahara it's not really craving evil it's craving godliness yeah it's just lost in translation the language has become a broken language but really what it's looking for is not what it says it's looking for it's like when you have an addict who's looking for alcohol they're not looking for alcohol they're looking for a relationship they're looking for somebody to make them feel good about themselves they don't have such a person so they go to the alcohol completely the person is not looking for alcohol they tell you they're looking for alcohol they're really looking for love which they never got they're looking for connection the only love they have now is alcohol you understand yeah so the eight sahara is not looking for bad the it's always looking for god but the language it has now is i'm looking for this looking for that but that's not really who it is exactly i that's why you don't really have bad parts you only have good parts but sometimes we don't our bad parts are the parts that are really good but they don't recognize how good they are so they confuse us that they're bad they make us think they're bad yeah so that's the nakuda of a lot of the my martyrdom of the balatanya to be able to see that the pinemias the core of everything is really divine oneness it's really love and everything it's like in your exams and your finals you're graduating this year wow okay beautiful a lot of success it's a pleasure to have you we're going to continue on monday on tuesday
