Discussion of Levels of Sekel. There are many different Levels. Real Sekel is not understanding the Universe, but understanding whence it came – Metaphysical inyonim. If learning is about physical things one’s integrity isn’t important. But in Ruchnius – Metaphysical – it is of the utmost importance. RaMbaM says that to be involved in abstract reasoning a person must be a porush – be separated from the world – so as not to be disturbed or distracted by the world. The person must be more concerned with finding the TRUTH. RaMbaM – Yesodei HaTorah chapter 1-4. The Galgalim know themselves and the Angels that are their Souls. They also know the metzius of Hashem, but they can’t know Hashem.
