How a “Ben” achieves “Eved” in short: Going away from the illuminated (Ohr) of Torah to struggle in its darkness. Osiyos of Torah SheBiksav are radiant by going away from that light. It becomes possible to be “Michadesh” chidushei Torah (innovate new ideas) entirely through personal effort and reach “Atzmus”. page 383-4, NEW SV page…

Introduction to the idea of “Ben Shenaase’ Eved”- the point of the entire Samach vov- how great Tzadikim can reach Atzmus through their Kabalas Ol (in Torah, Halacha). First he repeats the impossibility of this task using the Mashal of the child whose wealth comes from enhancing his father’s wealth. Explaining the idea that Z”A…

This class continues individual points from the earlier class. 4) Aba Yonek mimazal vs. getting from “zro’os” of Arich.Two ideas in the 13 Middos Harachamim- very limited and carrying the deeper light, 5) Chivresa and Orchin vs. Shaaros; Mitzvos (Eved Pashut) vs. Torah (Eved Ne’eman and Ben). Pages 378-9. NEW SV pages 497-8.

The end of this Maamar that discusses Atzmus (HaKeser) vs. Giluyim (including Ayin of Pnimyus HaChachma which is called “Giluy of Ayin of Kesser”) has many ideas that were addressed separately in Shiur. This Shiur includes 1) Torah and it’s connection (on the level of Pnimiyus HaTorah) to Shaaros (hair), 2) The mashal for Makif…

In divine revelation more is less and less is more. This means the more revealed it is the less essence it is. There are basically three levels 1) Limbs; life is fully revealed (and contained) in the body 2) Hair carry a higher light but it’s not revealed as much 3) The essence (represented by…

Ain Aroch Lecha, Ain Zulasecha, Efes Biltecha, Mi Dome’ Lach. These four bittuls exist in the model of Metzius (worlds) but also in levels of G-Dliness (light). In Ohr there are only three levels. This class overviews this topic and links it to the bittuls of Ayin of (pnimyus) hachochma and Keser. Page 369, 375….

Continuation from last classes. 1) Ohr (light) and Keilim (vessels), reflect the outer and inner aspects of Ayin of Chochma (but not Keser). 2) ohr Mayim Rakia also mirror the inner and outer ayin of chochma (but not Kesser), 3) Thus the Ayin of Chochma has giluy (revelation) and hischalkus (categorization) and the Ayin of…

Colors. This is the next example employed by the Rebbe Rashab to explain the three levels of Chitzoniyus and Pnimiyus HaChochma and Nekuda Atzmis of Keser. This analogy (of light and color) must be understood philosophically (not physically). It involves the issue of “mikriim” found in philosophy. This means, some things must necessarily have secondary…
