Action. Mitzvos are the main thing though in Hishtalshelus Torah is higher. Connection to Rosh Hashana and Kabalas Ol.

The answer: Two concepts explain how the “Koach HaAtzmus” [for Yeshus] manifest through Hishtalshelus: 1) Ohr MeAin HaMaor (the light not only reflects; but is also bottul to Atzmus) allowing it to carry(in a latent way) the Koach HaAtzmus (for Yeshus). 2) “Koach NeElam” of Malchus carries from Atzmus the Hidden (higher) possibility for separation….

The Question: In Hishtalshelus all are “Ayin”, so how can a “Koach HaAtzmus” be delivered to Asiya (Yesh) via Hishtalshelus? How can the Ayin give us Yeshus when the Ayin has no (and is antithetical) to Yesh? In this we explore 1) Illa vealul vs. Yesh Meayin, 2) Where Yesh begins in higher worlds and…

Nevua (prophecy) is all about people’s worthiness yet it overwhelms the Prophet. The juxtaposition of Nevua and Ruach HaKodesh (divine inspiration). We’ll continue in the next class.

Reward now, in Gan Eden and Leasid Lavo [Techiyas HaMeisim].

Giving Tzedaka when it’s hard even beyond what is required and expected. We could all use Hashem’s kindness.

This class further discusses the ten Kochos (faculties) but this time of the G-dly Soul. We explored the difference between the Intellectual and G-dly Souls. There are many additional ideas that the Alter Rebbe adds in discussing the G-dly Soul not mentioned earlier. Including a discussion on 1) Malchus, 2)_Da’as Elyon, 3) Midos that are…
