22. Ki Tisa 5734 (2nd Ma’amar) Parshas Tisa, Shushan Purim Ma’amar. This Ma’amar explains that Mordechai’s idea was Torah on the highest level: מאן מלכא רבנן, still he also needed a Bittul which is even higher than that. This is due to the fact that the levels of Torah of מאן מלכא רבנן has with it תוקף המציאות and therefore the Bittul of תפילה has an advantage next to it. This why the Gemara explains Mordechai’s name איש יהודי הי’ בשושן הבירה ושמו מרדכי בן יאיר בן שמעי בן קיש איש ימיני is linked to Tefilla (Hoda’a, Bittul) and not Torah. He explains ברכה vs. הודאה on this (very high) level. He also explains the Possuk כי תשא את ראש in a similar vain. The next Ma’amar is a Hemshech so I’m enclosing the link.
