Perek 8, class 1 (81) The extreme (ג’ קליפות טמאות ורעות לגמרי) Kelipos have no Aliya. This is especially pronounced when one eats non-Kosher that becomes one with him.

Perek 7, class 5 (79) Tanya (text based)

There is an עבירה which is a primarily spiritual one (connected to הנסתרות rather than והנגלות). For this to be turned around one doesn’t need תשובה מאהבה רבה and תשובה (תתאה) .נכונה is sufficient because it is not so “down”.

Perek 7, Class 4 (78) Tanya (text based)

When one is involved in איסור which is עבירות their second solution is the idea of תשובה מאהבה רבה where the עבירה becomes a מצוה because the עבירה creates the Teshuva. Is תשובה מאהבה the same thing as תשובה עילעא.

Mutar things are redeemable, Assur things aren’t. There are two ways Issur is redeemed A. after Moshiach comes and Hashem removes the evil totally, like the idea of הכל חוזרין לעפרן רגע קודם התחי’ה. The Rebbe’s idea that this can be realized through ונפשי כעפר לכל תהי’ה

Klipas Noga goes down when one indulges with lust. The explanation of נבל ברשות התורה. Correction by using לשם שמים is like the קרבן עולה is returning to Hashem. The idea of מותר is untied and of אסור is tied down.

Perek 6, Class 7 (73). Tanya (text based)

Klipa (continued). From fine to gross. The story of the Mitteler Rebbe, the name of קליפה may change but he is the same thing. 1) נחש הקדמוני and 2) מלאך המות and 3) יצר הרע and 4) שטן and 5) יש and 6) הרגש היש are really all the same thing. The idea of נסיונות…

Perek 6, Class 6 (72). Tanya (text based)

Klipa exists in every world, from the lowest to the highest. On higher levels it is as fine as simply being aware of itself ראומה or מורגש. On lower levels it can have no awareness of anything but self and be against Hashem. In general there are two levels: קליפת נוגה and קליפות טמאות ורעות…
