This Maamar is a Hemshech (continuation) from the Basi Ligani. The Rebbe explained that in ch. 16 of the Frierdike Rebbe’s Basi Ligani the two ideas of Ohr Ein Sof Limmala Ad Ein Ketz and Limata Ad Ein Tachlis are in the same light. This Shiur begins by completing what was left uncompleted in the…

1) The Yerida and Aliya of the (original seven sins as well as all future Yeridos due to) chataim makes our effort at Dira BiTachtonim one of a Baal teshuva and Milchama Gedola achieved with Avoda Gedola (of Simcha). 2) Moshe’s giluy at Har Sinai was the beginning, the full giluy was in the Beis…

This Maamar is based on the Maamar of Parshas Bo 5683, when our Rebbe came to his Rebbe (the RaYatz) for the first time. The Maamar said that Shabbos, would be repeated 27 years later as the Maamar Basi Ligani 5710 of the Previous Rebbe’s histalkus. On the occasion of the printing of this early…

HaShamayim Kisii 5746 (5772/2012) is 1) a chair that brings down and close to the worlds (as understood from the Possuk HaShamayim Kissi [The heaven is My throne]) while in most other contexts Shamayim is remote and aloof.

Yehuda is Bittul. This is only experienced when it follows Reuvain (Seeing, Love), Shimon (Hearing, Fear), Levi (Connection, Joy).

Mishkan’s earth is Bittul before Avoda, while Beis HaMikdash’s being entirely made of stone means that the Bittul permeates each aspect, still, the earth of Sota in the Beis HaMikdash is still called “Karka HaMishkan” as there is an advantage to the Mishkan’s (lower) Bittul.
