The month of Iyar - What can be achieved - What to work on - Rabbi Alon Anava

[Music] [Applause] [Music] So that's our new student Kaya. So [Music] that's the problem. She's cute and then I don't have your attention. How was the class? His daughter is so cute. What was the class about? I don't know. Some blue ribbons or something or beautiful month. We are entering now. The month of Y. Y is a very very special month. And if one takes the the power of the month a lot can be achieved. And as we always do our all the classes is what can we really achieve throughout the month. Every month has a certain power certain motion a certain character trait. And our student is leaving now. Here tick every month has a certain energy that I need to tap into and to derive the benefit of that energy. So the month of Yah the sign is a sh a Taurus which represents stubborn to be very very stubborn which is can be good and can be bad. We're going to talk about the how everything can be dissected for good and bad. And the element of the month is the element of afar of earth very heavy, very powerful and again has both the benefits of the of the positive and also negative. Earth is very heavy which makes people very angry, very depressed, very sad, very lazy. But on the other hand as the power of growth you can take now a seed put it on the table and you can put whatever fertilizer you want and how many water you want it nothing will grow out of it cuz it needs the power of the earth that has the power of growth. So anything in this world has both the benefit of the good and the bad. We need to know how to direct it. So we have the power of stubborn of the ox of the Taurus that can be utilized for positive and shalom be against us for negative. Same thing with the element. The element is afar. Afar is earth. The very very powerful element. The tribe that is connected to the month is the tribe of Isakar which Isakar was known to be a tribe of scholars. Very very smart. They were known to be the Torah learners. Up until today, there's a very known uh deal between and is the one who makes money. Sahar learns Torah and Zulun would support financially and is would share their Torah. So the month, the tribe that is connected to the month is the month of the tribe of Isaka. We're going to talk about it more later. And based on the book of y, the book of formation, the letter that was uh that created the month is the letter vav. But the star as we mentioned in other classes, every month has a certain star that has a a connection to the month and is powerful. In this month is the star of noa. And the letter that created the star of Noga is the letter pay which creates together both combinations of pay and vav. Pay is the letter that created the star of noa and vav is the letter that created the month. Together it's pv. Pay vav is the numerical value of 86 which 86 is a very powerful number because the numerical value of the name of hashem elohim is the same numerical value 8 86. The name of Elohim represents the attribute of din of which again can be looked upon as something very negative but at the same time is a very positive things because everything has to have a little bit of in it and if you don't have even now the recounting the then we see we have there's always going to be in something if you don't have it's almost like making cake and you don't have the the yeast in it and you get a flat cake might look at something negative but is something very positive but the name Elohim this shows on the attribute of dean of judgment now this is a month with a lot of light it's called the month of light first of all the name of the month has al this very resembles also Alo the the word light in Hebrew or the you have the al if you have the resembles of a so just the name of the month already has some type of a connection to the to the power of light of all now the every month has also a biblical name which we didn't mention it many times but the month the biblical name of the month of is z is a moon and ze is a shine. We're going to talk soon also about the moon. How is that connected to this month? But the zeve is a shine as another form of light. We said the star of the month is noa. Noa is light. Also the holiday that falls in the month of is like that's the holiday of light. We light bonfires. Also is considered the holy light, the holy holy candle. So this is a a month with a lot of light that noa is the noa is the planet also clip noa we're going to get to that too what's the English word for noa wait one by one the English word for the planet noa then we're going to look at the rabbi google and we're going to ask him but the noa the word noa is light noa is a light how is that connected to kipad noa we're going to talk about And I don't want to jump the gun, but no is mixture of good and bad. If you know to direct to the good, it will shine. If you take away the good, it will diminish. We'll get to that in a second. But I'm just now want to point how the month is a month of light. And the star is called noa. Noa is light. Anytime that you will say the word noa, it means that it has light in it. Now is also considered the month of of health and the acronym of the word is the acronym of ani hashem. I am your god your healer. So we see from that that it's not only a month full of light. It's a month of healing. The month that one can achieve a lot of health and and and uh not only that it's achieving the spiritual health. It's not only physical health because one might find himself in a place that his spirituality is lacking and in this month one can gain a lot of spiritual health. Now the the the sign of the month the Taurus in Hebrew we call it ashore. Now in English ashure is an ox but the sign is called Taurus. the the Hebrew word sh every tribe has an animal and the tribe of Yseph I mean our sage Ysef he was compared to a ox to a shore Yuda was compared to a lion each one was compared to a different animal the animal that one of the tribes I mean we don't have the tribe of Yseph we have a mane but the tribe the that originates Yseph And the animal that attributes to Ysef is a show. And even when Jacob Aino, we we remember that when Yakov Aino was contri was giving off the blessings to the to the to the tribes and he was also telling them off. So he told about Yseph. He mentioned that Yseph is the is the is the ox. Now the ox of the I mean we call it an ox because we taken from the language in Hebrew. In Hebrew we call sh in English you say Taurus. But the story says that when Yseph Fatadik died he refused to be taken out of Mitim. He told him burying me put me in a coffin and throw the coffin in the Niles in the Y. And when it's time to go out, just remember to take the bones with me. Now the midrash says that how did they know where the bones are? I mean they just threw it in the water. So there are a few opinions but really what Mosher Rabenu did that he came to the shore and he said two words. He said al now in the blessing that Jacob was giving Yseph that he says Mosher Rabenu just took the word show cuz Jacob called Ysef Ash and he said Alles means come up and show he called Yseph and the coffin just came up. Really what he said is Mosher Rabenu just said a few holy words a few names of the kadu and the midrash says that the name that he said was the name a holy name from the 72 names that is yudlud if you remember many times I I gave you an example that when somebody wants to pray for somebody's well-being then there is two places in the prayer of kabalaat of before Friday night there are two verses that I pointed out the acronym of LAud if you don't know what I'm talking about I'll tell you later which video you can find it there is a video on my website and the title of the video is a little bit extreme the title of the video is called is the world going to be nuked and there's a the thumbnail is a nuclear explosion but that's just the thumbnail and the title to get the attention but in this video around the 18 or 17 or 19 minutes there is the point where I'm explaining this whole concept about the yud I don't want to go too much in it but in the 72 names of Hashem each name has a certain power the name yud is the name of of healing spiritual healing physical healing and so forth and when you know how to meditate on these letters that's how one can achieve health and and salvation so Mosha Rabenu when he approached the Niles He didn't know where the the bones are. So he just said a holy name in the way it needs to be said and he just said allesho come up ox and again ox is a Taurus that's the connection to the man and then the bones came up. Now the word the name the numerical value is 50 because 50 represents the completion. We know there are 50 gates of purity and 50 gates of impurity. And the thing that is against or opposes the health is somebody who's sick. Sick in Hebrew is called. That's how you say sick in Hebrew. Has the numerical value of 49. A the person who's sick is missing one level of holiness. If the person possesses 50 levels of holiness, 50 levels of holiness, you don't have to be a sadic for that. Then the person is not going to be sick. Why a person gets sick? Because he has one level of holiness that is lacking which brings him to the level of 49. That's why the the word sik in Hebrew is h exact same numerical value of 49. So the month of Y has a very strong power of healing. The month of healing can be physical healing can be spiritual healing. Now what does it mean that the ox came up when Mosha Rabu told Yseph alles is the concept of what's called to elevate sparks godly sparks. that by elevating the bones so to say of Ysef. This is the concept of healing is elevating sparks of holiness. When I eat and I say a blessing assuming I eat something kosher and I say abraa then I I take the sparks out of the food and I elevated to kusha to holiness. That's assuming I'm following all the rules. Has to be kosher has to say a blessing. I have to say the after blessing and you know when I take these sparks up late at night when I go to sleep that's the reason why we go to sleep if you ever wondered why we sleep not because I get tired because my body technically can function much more than what I think but my soul gets tired that's why I become tired and then I go to sleep my soul becomes tired not because the soul has energy of becoming tired rather The soul is not fed with the right energy. That's why you see with sadikim they don't sleep. We know the barely sleeped. Even in our generation we know as a as a proof of that we know that would barely sleep. He had dozens of people around them all day long to know he he doesn't go to sleep. So we see that with sadikim they don't go to sleep much. Why? Because the the the the little sleep that they need is that's it. And the little sleep that they need is not to gain energy. They get their energy from their soul. They get their energy from their from their mitzvah, from their Torah. They don't need to sleep. The reason why we go to sleep is because all the sparks of holiness that I elevated that I more to say sifted that day, they need to be elevated. And that's when I take them up when I go to sleep. That's why I say there are many reasons why we say malamita. One of them is to prepare for the journey. I'm about to go now to my source to my to my journey and I'm taking with me a lot of godly sparks. I ate I I learned Torah. I did mitzvot. I'm now possessing a lot of sparks of holiness and I need to take them where they belong. So I have to go to sleep for that. And while I'm sleeping, my body gets rejuvenated, but my nama goes and delivers it. So the concept of this the sparks of holiness is that it needs to be elevated. And if the sparks of holiness will not be elevated, then they're staying where they are and that's not good. So the concept the concept of the the Taurus, the ox of Ysef is elevating these. That's where my health comes from. Amazingly, we're not going to have time to talk about that. I just want to say it as as a as a as a detail that in the month of Yar is when the man started coming down because they the Jews left in Isan only in the man the food that they had for 40 years in the desert. That's when it started coming because they were able to elevate these godly sparks before which caused a blessing to come from above. This is in called in the cabalistic terminology an awakening from below that triggers an awakening from above that the energy can come back down. So just the motion of the month that if I focus the right way the healing that I can get both spiritually and physically is is the most aspicious time. Now going back to the two letters the pay and the vav that they formed the number of 86. The pay and the vav has a very special connection between one another. There is one way of calculating letters. It's calledishu atbash. Atbbash is that you take one letter and you switch it with a letter that is in the same position from the end. So al if will be switched with taf because al if is the first letter and t is the la last letter. So bet will be switch right you follow what I say this is called that you switch letters this is used when you calculate also the numerical values and not only that there is a connection between the letters. So alf will switch t bet will switch shin that's why it's called atbash at is alf and t and bash is bet and shin but if you go by the order v and pay because you have gimal vav vav is the sixth letter in pay is the sixth letter from the back if you count from tinad pay. So vav and pay they meet. So we see a very powerful connection even between the two letters that create the months how they meet in the month of Y. Now what does that represent that the two letters meet? So I told you that the star that corresponds to the month is noa and you asked about the kipa of noa. Yes. The world was created mainly with kipat noa. Kipat noa is the mixture of good and bad. Half good, half bad. Everything in this world has a mixture. Before that, when the time of Ganedin, when Adam and Kava were in in Ganedin, there wasn't the concept of kipat noa because there was only good. They only saw good. Everything was good. They saw godliness. Then they brought the existence of the sin of the bad. And with that, they brought the confusion and the deception of the world that the good and the bad are mixed together. This is what's called in the cababalistic term the secret of tree of knowledge because the tree of knowledge is a mixture of good and bad. And as I mentioned in numerous times that our entire service of God is sifting between the good and the bad. This is koshure. This is not. This is pure. This is impure. This is permitted. This is not permitted. My entire service is constantly the good and the bad. The good and the bad. This is the concept of kipat noa that kipat noa is an existence. It's a power of creation that is mixed a little bit good and a little bit bad. It's almost like you know you buy these juices and it says to you it's orange juice and it's made out of fresh oranges. So you're saying wow it's good. But since it's wrapped in a bottle there's also a little bit of preservatives there. So it's mixed with bad. Now, I'm not talking about the juices that says 100% natural and it's and it's the 0% natural. That's already lying. That's not what I'm talking about. And today, you will buy a product and it will tell you zero fats or no sugar added or no food coloring. Yeah, it's purple, but there's no food coloring. So, this is already a a different type of deception. But in this world, we see that everything has a mixture of good and bad. This is called the concept of kipat noa. In this month when the star noa is in control and the two letters that I mentioned vav and pay pay is the letter that created the star and vav is the letter letter that created the month. You have the pay and the vav. What is the what do they form? I told you before is the numerical value of 86 which is the midata din has to be din. What is din? Dan is a law. Den is that you put a case. Now let me now decide what would be the dean. You asked me before about when we talked about this happened. What should be the dean? Dean is a is the law. What would be the decree? Oh, you have let me see the case. You go now to a judge or a rabbi, a rabbi who's a judge and you tell him a case. He tell you, give me more information. Let's bring witnesses. Let's hear. Let's hear both sides sides. I have to hear. Then I'll give my judgment. my deen. So midatin is not necessarily to go against me and to arouse a judgment against me. Rather is to take a case and to know how to bring down a judgment. I don't know if judgment is the right word but in Hebrew you would say dinen. This is my decree. This is the decision. So midatin is for me to understand what is the right thing. What is good and what is bad. Now the whole concept of tripat noa is to understand between the good and the bad and to understand that everything is has good in it and everything has bad in it. And this corresponds to this concept of the two letters meeting each other that you have two sides that they merge. Now what is the concept of noa is that if I take the good out of the bad you know what happens everything becomes good. But if I don't take the good out of the bad, then it all becomes bad. That's the problem with kipat noa that I have the ability of transforming everything even the bad into good. But that's only if I know how to separate them. If I don't do that, then it will all fall down into the bad. That's why you see that if I'm able to make a distinguish this is kosher, this is not, then you know what I make? I make everything around it holy and kosher but if I don't take it out then now everything will be not kosher. So the concept the avoda of kipad noa and this is not what I'm talking about I'm just want to present the situation is the concept of in this month the two opposites merge they so to say collide with each other they meet and this is the month that I can make my separation this way I get the the energy the power of the separation now there's always an organ that corresponds to to one of the months in the month of Yah the organ is the kidney. Now our sages say that our kidney is our advisor that the kidney is the is your yo it gives me advice but what is this advice is that advice comes to tell you usually when you want to have advice should I buy this property should I invest here should I marry that person you need somebody's advice and that person says okay let me think about it and I will let you know what's my advice now if it's a chart person if it's business deal the the financial adviser will tell you buy the property don't buy it's not a good investment but the one who gives advice needs to have enough information this is what the kidney does the motion of the kidney is to give advice but he has a lot of information now we always talk about a certain character character trait which I call it a sense because in Hebrew it's called hush now hush is not necessarily something that you actually feel like a sense. Hush is something that you have like a talent. But every month there's a certain sense. If you're following the classes, you you you notice that every month we're talking about a different sense. The month of the sense is called and is a thought. Now really the sense is not called. The word that it's used is eun is to it's like the translation of is inspection but it's not really an inspection is more to study something now I can learn now Torah and I can just read like a machine this is called that I didn't learn it I just read it I didn't really dissect it but I can take Now a piece of the portion of the weekly parasa and open the commentaries and we we mainly mainly familiar with rashi there's many other commentaries Davidid and and and so many so many commentaries I can take now a book I have a book that has 12 commentaries famous commentaries and you for one verse that you read out of the para you can read 12 commentaries from different commentaries Not only rashi everybody what they had to say also when you learn there you can learn the actual and you can learn the commentaries in there's a concept that is called t is there are four commentaries on the it's called the and when you learn the right way you learn the actual what the says and then you learn the you learn what the commentary says because each one has something to say about it. No, you're mixing. That's another that's one commentary. But in you will see if you go to a or you look there's something that is called and if you open the book you see the is in the middle and four sides, four types of commentaries. Now when you just read the real quick you learned it. But to really delve into it and to dissect it and to understand and why it got to this that's what you do when you're learning the Talmud. When you learn the Talmud, you can't just read it. You have to first reread a few lines. Let's see what Rashi says. Let's see what to say. Let's see what all the says. This is called that. I really go into I dig into it. So, I wouldn't say necessarily is inspection. That is the translation. But is more to study to to study the case. So the the motion the sense of the month is one way of explaining it is hir is thinking. Now is not that you is a thought but it's not a one-time thought. You're thinking it over and over and over. You don't you don't do it right away. You might remember that in the world of sin there is a concept that is called a the sin this is doing it and there's also something is called thinking of sinning now we have all day long now unfortunately our sages say that thinking of a sin is worse than the sin why because I'm damaging the level of thought the garment of thought and not only that that it penet concentrates to a much more refined level in my ina my thoughts but all day long I have thoughts and they can be something as simple as I want to eat another cookie even though I had already 20 now this is not really a sin but it's not a good thing to do but all day long I have what's called a and a person can have a for months before the yet were able to break him and make him do the sin so is a thought that you contemplate and you dissect infect it or inspect it or study it. You have all these hirim on the positive side of it. You can have a chuva. I can do now chuva and sometimes I can do just and our sages teach us that is enough. Sometimes just the thinking of the cha can get you out of the out of the mess. Says that a person a minute before he dies, a second before he dies does thinks of the cha in one second he he reversed the situation person can do chuva in his mind. So that's how powerful our mind is. So is a very deep study and inspection of something. So the sense of the mind is which is a it's a which we're already seeing from that that the power of the month is in the level of makshava is a very high level very high level month and what what can be achieved. Now to connect it all together, we mentioned that the tribe of the month is the tribe of Isakar. The tribe of Isakar were known to be the scholars that all the scholars always came from the tribe of Isah. They were they were called that's how this tribe of Isask were called. Why? Now we are very spoiled. We have calendars. Many years ago they didn't have calendars. They had to calculate the the the calendar and the the the scholars from the tribe of Isahar they knew the calculation. It's a very sophisticated calculation. Very few people are able to calculate the months the cycle of the moon. That's one of many proofs that the Torah is divine because now they find out that with sophisticated telescopes they were able to come to the exact not even the exact even to the most precise cycle of the moon which 3,000 years ago we had already the mathematical equation how to get to that calculation and this is calculated on a fraction of a second a 12th of a second. This is called if you notice in the shul when they announced the they say the hour, the minute and the this is a fraction of a second. So we had that knowledge thousands of years ago that now they're getting into it with equipment with computers and telescopes. So they were so wise they were the ones who were calculating the the times they were called as a in the that it's talking about the sons of Isar and it says that they were calculating the so and the verse that it was used is that's the the the verse that it comes from the verse is this is the verse in and it's talking about that the sons of isar they knew how to calculate the time is the time now what is the word that they're using is knowing is the wisdom the knowledge and is the times so we see that we have a connection between isar the tribe of isar to the sphere of bina Now bina is is not a not such a simple sphere. It's the most sophisticated sphere if you want to really dissect it. Why? Because it's taking the makava the concept from and dissecting it. So one might say oh is higher. It's the source of the knowledge. But Vina is able to take it dissect it chew it and hand it over. So that's is a much much more powerful attribute is the attribute of it's not an attribute it's a more of a intellect but you know the husband of Bina's hma they come together and they come together they're both what's called is the is the source of it and bina is dissecting it and the advantage the upper hand that bina has is taking something very very high and able to deliver it very low that's much greater gater than the I know many people that are geniuses in the Torah. They don't know how to deliver this the the the knowledge. So the bina has the ability to take something from such a high level and to be able to to break it down and to deliver it to a very simple mind. That's the power of bina but bina and they go together. the the power of the amazing that first of all we know that in in Kabala and Bina are not called and bina they're called ima and abba hma is abba and bina is imma in cababala in books of kabala you're not going to find so much the words and bina rather you'll find imma and abba the abba abba is a father is a mother in the natur in the world in the physical world the father is the one that delivers the sperm and the woman takes the sperm and starts developing it. So one might say the father is important without the sperm there's nothing there. Yes, but the mother has the tools to dissect it to cook it and to develop it. But they always go together. Now amazingly you see that the uh the woman is compared to Bina and the father is compared to that's why I said aba is hma and bina is mother now where do we learn that the woman comes from bina because our sages say that a woman has bina extra part of bina is because if you remember in the book of bish first was created only then he was put to sleep and what is the verse saying and he built elohim. So you take the word it's the letters of bina same letters v it's bina that's where you take from that that the woman came from bina Adam man wasma he was possessing the knowledge but bina had to come out of that's why it is a big question why couldn't hashem just boop create also kava why the whole ceremony in uh an anesthesia and the whole uh uh surgery and cutting the rib and you know I mean there's all sorts of nice slogans from Hallmark because the man should know that she's a part of him and all sorts of like nice slogans that you can put on stickers but why did Hashem had to do this whole show? Let him just pop and create a woman. This teaches us that Adam represented the sphere of bina had to come out from him. So even when it manifested into the world, Hashem had to put Adam to sleep and then he had to put take the cell out had take it out. But then it says something very interesting. It uses the word. It shouldn't say that word even means and he built comes from the word not. It should have said and he took it some other words. But it says from this we learn that the woman that was taken out of Adam then she's the beina. The bina corresponds to the mother. Now another relations that we see that are very similar to the relations of bina and bina or father and mother a husband and wife is the connection between the sun and the moon and they have the same relation. Now amazingly the numerical value of and lean is sun le is is moon. The numerical value of both of them is 140 and le is again sun and lean is the moon notma. Bina is numerical value of 140 the exact same numerical value. So sun and moon is equivalent to kma and bina. Where do we see the relations? If you would now get some type of uh uh knowledge that comes from bin from you can't use it. It's useless to us. And even now a big sadik will come and bring us some type of knowledge from it's useless for us. I have on my bookshelf dozens of books of Cababala that if you open them, I can guarantee to you that you're not going to understand one word. And I'm not saying it because you don't I don't understand anything there. It's not that that saying I don't I will open it. I understand the words. I don't understand one thing from what the author said. Why? Because this this mikubal doesn't matter right now who it is was sitting in some type of a spiritual state that his mind is in he sees things and he writes it can we understand what he's writing we don't understand nothing now this is not even to compare but look for example the prophecies of you think you understand something from that you read the prophecies of you don't understand one thing A prophet his mind is inut. He sees also the things he writes it down in his metaphorical or poetic way. Now I'm going to understand what he wants. So the same thing is in the teachings of Kabala. This is such a high wisdom coming from it's useless to me. I don't know anything. I don't understand nothing. But then will come a certain individual that will be able to take from the dissect it and then deliver it in a nice way and oh now I understand but that takes a very very powerful mind that can only come from beina when I compare that to the sun and the moon the light of the sun is almost useless because if I would look directly in the sun I don't get anything I will get blinded the benefit from the sun is only when it gets filtered by ultraviolet layers by by by many different ways then then I can benefit from the sun looking directly in the sun will not benefit me will harm me if hypothetically you would put somebody in front of the sun it would melt so we see that when you compare the sunma that it's unbelievable power but it's useless to me I can't approach it I can't derive anything from it but if I take a certain tool I will be able to derive a lot out of the sun take now a certain reflector and you can create energy from the sun. the light of the sun you can grab the energy but take I don't know how you call them in English but there are these reflectors how I know there must be a word for that you know in in in Israel all the hot water is by these reflectors sheish the the solar solar panels so solar panel is the the the way to get energy said that when Mashia is going to come very soon our energy is only going to be solar We're not going to have energy from any any type of other type of energy. We're only going to use solar energy, cars, everything. I mean, we're going to have technology. We're going to have the world is going to be the same when Mashia comes. Just we're not going to have pollutions from power plants and digging oil out of the ground and damaging the earth. You know, just yesterday, somebody sent me this video of this special Japanese boat that can dig 3,000 miles, 3,000 ft or whatever amount into the core of Earth to be able to figure out the movements inside the the globe to prevent to prevent earthquakes and volcanoes and all these natural disasters. The joke was that they say this this ship will only go into action in like 2036. Like we're great. So I have another 20 years of natural disasters. But the point is that we don't realize that we're digging all day long into this world and we're pulling hundreds of thousands or millions of gallons of oil and gas and all sorts of things. Then people are they wonder why we have earthquakes and volcanoes and and storms because the inside is all messed up. It's almost like giving somebody bad food and all day long he will throw up and we'll have gases and stuff like that. Yeah. The food you you put in is bad. So we we damage this world and then we complain. So this is completely off the subject but The point is that very soon when Mashia is going to come, our energy is going to be solar. Why? Because the power of the sun is so powerful. We just don't know how to deal with it yet. So now we're getting hints. So couple decades ago, they figured out the solar panels. So now they use it to heat water. They use it for public uh lights. You see that in many countries they have a little solar panel next to the traffic light. And the traffic lights they work on solar panels. So very soon our entire energy will be on solar. What do I see from that? That the power that is in the sun is unbelievable. The sun can heal. The sun can do so many good things. It says that when very soon is going to come is going to take the sun out out of its pocket. And it says that the righteous people will be cured by the power of the sun and the wicked people will not be able to sustain the the the light and we'll just had to go. They will have to go. What does it mean? They will have to go. They won't won't be able to stay here. That's why we know that two three two/3s of the population of the world will not survive the coming of Mashiach. Excuse me. Who decide who's wicked? Who will decide who's wicked? The Torah decides who's wicked. The Torah gives you a definition. What's a rash? We don't decide. We don't have a courthouse that decides who's a wicked person. The Torah tells us, but we don't excuse me. Of course, it's a spiritual light, but the entire time of Msiah is a spirit is spiritual. Again, I don't want to sidetrack now. I want to make the point that the sun is possessing unbelievable powers but we don't know how to utilize them slowly slowly now with technology we're learning how to utilize the the power of the sun but this is compared to that is holding in it so much information but it's useless to us we don't know how to even use it on the other hand bina is the part that actually can we can relate is comparing the moon to Vina we derive some type of benefit from the light of the moon because the moon is filtered light it's it's getting its light from the sun so the bina has to get its shea it's abundance from kma bina cannot be without like a woman you know a woman without a husband she withers she a woman even if the husband is not such a great husband she needs a husband I thought it was the other way around. No, the woman need the woman in most cases, unfortunately, it's sad to say, in most cases, husbands are not that great. They're not so sensitive to the needs of the wife, but the woman needs the husband. You know, she needs the man around her. She needs his energy. She needs his his mitzvot. We're not going to start going now into the to the relations here. We're not going to get into that. I'll be going. Yeah, we don't want to start about that. But in essence, if you want to go to the essence of things, Bina can be individually functioning like a woman, but she still needs to get some type of a sheer from somewhere. And that sheer comes from and whether you like it or not, I I mean, it's a cycle. In order for the bina to be able to function, she needs to get ashah from kma will will that will be delivered from the husband. Hopefully hopefully we we we wishing that the husbands will have to know how to treat their wives. That's why the man will go and learn Torah. So his spir will be enlightened with Torah. But not to sidetrack too much. The beina is depending on on it needs it. But once it gets its shea its abundance from the sphere of it's independent and really really the hashbah that comes through all the midot under the moin is only coming from bina we talked about the beginning of the week about and I explained to you that we're refining the midot that's why we have seven * 7 from to malot but I mentioned that bina is corresponding to the number eight and it's above the nature above this and that's bina. So bina really needs to derive its shea from but then it becomes the mashia. Now there's a very interesting verse from in the book of cohellet. This is written by Schlomma by King Solomon and it's talking about there's there's a time for everything. One of the things that it says and it it's a a whole part of the and it used the word it means time the right time like I told you before that the were considered is a is a is a time. So in this part in cohellet it's talking about theim. If you counting the word it you find 28 times the word it just that it's divided in half 14 are positive and 14 are negative cuz it says that's positive means it's there's a time to give birth is the time to die. So from the 2818 times there are 14 that are positive, 14 that are negative and these correspond to the to the cycle of the moon. There are 14 positive days and 14 negative days. The positive days when the moon is being replenished or being built and the 14 negative days when it starts diminishing. So technically we have 28 days but when you calculate the sometime it will go into the 29th day or the 30th day but when it comes to calculating 18 times there are 14 and 14 that's how you calculate it. Now the 14 days, the cycle of the moon, it hints to us on the power of the woman because the woman also has her cycle through the months. And amazingly, the tribe that calculated the times, the periods, the is the months of Isahav is the tribe of Isahav. And if you remember the the story that Leia who's the mother and Leia by the way in Kabala Leia is the Imah is Bina because there are two mothers I this is that is Leia bought that night from Rael when she got pregnant with this. If you remember the story that she she bought the the night and she when Yakov went to Rael came and says tonight you're with me I purchased this night and when YaKob was with her that night then she had is so we the hint that we see that again the connection between is and the bina that the mother who's called bina who she bought is so to say. She bought that child. Rael should have had him but she possessed him. This is a whole different concept about the teachings in Kabala about the two mothers about and that is she's the is the whole concept of what we need to do especially in Omar is to take all the midot that is called from the mal and elevate it into bina to its source. That's what we're doing in in basic words. We're refining the it all funnels to what's the last day and then we elevate it all to to its source to be. So the connection that we see all together is that in the month of there's a special extra power for the spir of if you notice the entire month of Y is in the omen. There's a little bit in Sivan, a little bit in Isan, but the entire month, it's the only month that is completely in the so to break it down to practicality. We said it's a month of light. We're all in some type of a darkness because we just came out of mit. We are in our own mit, in our own exile, whether it's finance, whether it's health, whether it's relationships, whatever it is, but we're we're stuck in some type of darkness. This is the month to enlighten to bring out this light. More than that, it's the month of healing, the month of refu physical and spiritual. How is it corresponding? And how do I get it? By the using the sense of the is the hu is thoughts that I have to sift between the good and the bad. I have to use my mind. If you remember last class that we had about I explained to you that in the 10 there are three groups that are called if you weren't here watch the video it's already online it's very important that you understand that cuz there are 10 and I presented a question why do we count 49 days when it says in the Torah that we should count 50 days it says literally 50 days did not have a typo but we count 49. So very briefly I explained that we have three groups. The first group is the second group is the third group is aside that's the 50. Each one of them has 10 in them. You take three together they have 10 which will make three groups. We have 30 spir the point in is to refine my emotions which is my emotions my inclinations my feelings and to elevate it to the intellect to refine it. How do I do that? I elevate it to the which is comes corresponds to my intellect that I have to see things with my mind and not my emotions. Somebody hurts me instead of impulsively reacting I have to think what is the right thing to do. So in this month when the star that is in control is be is is noa is and and we the letters we said the pay and the vow they merge. This is the time that I have the most aspicious time to do what's called the is sifting between the good and the bad is what is good what is bad cuz everything has a little bit of good in it has a little bit of bad in it. I mentioned in the last class that you can have the motion of happiness and happiness is a very positive thing. I can be happy for you now because you got married and I can be happy for you because you made a million dollars and I can be happy for you because you got promoted. But I can also see my enemy suffer and I can be happy for him. Happy for me that my enemy is suffering. That's not a positive happiness. That's a very negative happiness. So every motion has good and bad in it. So in the month of Y has the concept of the good and the bad. I have to use the sense of of dissecting when I want to learn halaka I cannot learn what we're learning now the laws all the that we learn this is really on the surface we're not really going deep into the hala this is after it was dissected and I'm just giving it to you the practical don't do this don't do that this is not eun is going into the depth why did the is like that why there are so many different opinions where is it coming from this is so my entire being has to be dwelled and inspected and and taught and studied. Is this really good? Is this really bad? Is this really what I need to do? Is this really the right way? And this is the month that I'm able to do that. And when I do that, that's what's going to give me my healing. That's going to be the power that brings out for me the and the power of healing in this month, both spiritual, emotional, mental, everything. So I need to dwell to take my Now for you it's even a even a even an advantage because a woman already has bina doesn't mean that the man doesn't have bina the woman has an extra beina. So for a woman is even much better to be able to use to reach to her essence and to be able to pull out what is the good here. Is that really the good thing to do? And by that I'm able to reach into my ultimate healing. And if I focus on this this month, this gives me of course the power for the rest of the year. So we should utilize this month to be elevated to rejuvenate. That's why we count the om because we're developing a new reality. What says how I mentioned in the last class that this is the days that every day a new light is being born and I can tap into it. So this is the month that I need to concentrate on the most on my spiritual growth. This is the month of of concentrating on it to be able to sift between the good and the bad. This is not good for me. It's stopping my spiritual growth. If I don't have spiritual growth, I'm not going to have emotional or physical growth because it comes from the spiritual. So you want to take uh take good attention of this month to be able to really understand what I can achieve in this month. my spiritual growth, my physical and spiritual healing to learn a lot more about and like I said till we're going to have a lot of classes about the om we had already you can find them online if you miss them they're very interesting and practical it's not about just saying today is the 12th day that's not the point the point is to understand what am I elevating and refining and to utilize it to such a point that from that I go into the month of receiving the Torah this will allow me to reach to the level that I can receive the Torah again. Every year we can receive the Torah. And if we're lucky, if Hashem decides to bless us, then this sh will receive the Torah from the mouth of Mashiach. As Mashia is going to come and says the we're going to receive an addition to the Torah, this should happen this in the meantime. You should have a beautiful a very successful and healing and happyesh. And the other should only have good good news. [Music] Heat. Heat. [Music] [Applause] [Music]
