Hayosheves Baganim 5735.

When the Malachim and Neshamos come to listen to the Jewish people down here earning Torah, Hashem Himself joins. Only here where darkness is transformed to light (not only displaced by light, but actually transformed), is the highest Godliness available. The word ‘VaEd’ means forever but it is also representative of the physical (lowly) world, because only here is it possible through work to reveal ‘Atik’. This is also why when Moshiach comes we’ll actually thank Hashem for the suffering.
