A New Tanya class By Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz โThe Magical 24 Hour Silent Meditationโ Tanya Last Essays Number 9SIYUM HATANYA IN FORT MYERS FLORIDABased on the verse ืืืื ืชืืืื ืืช ืขืืืชื the Talmud says even 100 times. The Alter Rebbe is pleading for us to have pity on our souls in 3 areas. 1. Prayer. Prayer is the service of the Heart to G-D. Prayer should be done. All together. One word at a time. No dreaming. No talking. The problem is not having a proper person to lead the service. The solution to chose people that are capable of leading the service. Either by lottery or majority approval. The requirements are. Saying each word. Medium pace. Loud voice. The community should gather around & pray with the same requirements. This Prayer practice will take away any & all struggles that we have. G-D should purify our hearts to serve him in Truth. Torah Study. To divide the study of the whole Talmud every year within each community. If itโs a big community to finish it multiple times. If itโs a small community to unite with other communities. All those that study the Talmud should recite every week psalm 119 as it has 8 verses per each letter of the alphabet. Fasting. When one sins. The way to cleanse yourself is via fasting. The amounts of fasts are listed in ืืืจืช ืืชืฉืืื chapter 3. Substitute for fasting - Shabbas. Since we donโt have the strength to fast we can can use the advise from the Talmud ืื ืืฉืืืจ ืฉืืช ืืืืืชื ืืืืืื ืื ืขื ืื ืขืืื ืืชืืืด โWhoever observes Shabbas according to its laws are forgiven for all their sinsโThe Talmud says specifically โืืืืืชื Jewish Lawโ so we need to learn all the Halachot of Shabbas. To know whatโs forbidden & to know how to prepare before Shabbas to avoid any desecration of Shabbas. โ24 Hour Silent MeditationโNot to speak any unnecessary words on Shabbas G-D forbid. As itโs known to those that study the hidden teachings. That every mitzvah has ืคื ืืืืืช ืืืืฆืื ืืืช the spiritual & the physical component in each mitzvah. The ืืืฆืื ืืืช of Shabbas is just like Hashem rested so we rest from any physical work. The ืคื ืืืืืช of Shabbas is meditation in prayer & Torah study to cleave to Hashem. As the verse says ืฉืืช ืืืณ ืืืงืื that we rest in a way that our soul gets deeply reconnected to Hashem our G-D. Specifically this is the ืคื ืืืืืช of the positive Mitzvah of ืืืืจ ืืช ืืื ืืฉืืช by meditation in Prayer & Torah study. The ืคื ืืืืืช of the Mitzvah of ืฉืืืจ ืืช ืืื ืืฉืืช is resting from speaking on Shabbas just like Hashem rested from speaking on Shabbas the ten utterances that weโre said the 6 days of creation. The ืืืฆืื ืืืช is no physical work the ืคื ืืืืืช is no speech. The Alter Rebbe finishes off with a quote from King Solomonโs ecclesiastes that says ืื ืืขืืืช ืื that both sides are equal namely that The not speaking creates the same rest & spiritual elevation as does the meditation in Prayer & Torah study.Interesting the verse speaks about when life is great we are to be grateful & when life is challenging weโre to look & contemplate as both are from the same loving G-D hence the power of silence.

A New Tanya class By Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz โPraying leisurely with meditation will develop a revealed Love for Hashemโ Tanya Last Essays Number 8The Alter Rebbe says that heโs not happy to hear that they donโt allow the chazan that prays leisurely to lead the prayer service. Praying leisurely creates life & long life. If the ืฉืืื ืฆืืืืจ prays leisurely he creates life & long life for the whole community. As the Talmud says that there are 3 things that create long life & one praying leisurely. If your in a rush itโs better for the chazan to pray slowly to grant everyone a long life even though you will have to leave early & miss ืงืืืฉื ืืืจืื. Since you need to leave early your considered a ืืื ืก and would exempt & the chazan can have you in mind in his prayers and it would be as if you fully participated in the service. As the Talmud tells us of the community out in the fields that cant make it synagogue that the big synagogue exempts them thru their prayers. In the times of the Mishna & Talmud when the main avoda was learning Torah they prayed leisurely. Now before Moshiach arrival Rabbi Chaim Vital says our main Avodah is Prayer how much more so do we need to pray leisurely. Praying leisurely is actually a biblical obligation for those that know how to meditate each according to their abilities the time that it takes to create Awe & love in his or her heart for Hashem. The meditation takes place during ืคืกืืงื ืืืืจื & the 2 blessing before Shema ืืืฆืจ ืืืืืช ืขืืื as we praise Hashem so that when we say the verse ืืืืืช in Shema the love that is concealed should be felt in a revealed way as that is the Mitzvah of ืืืืืช ืืื ืืืื as that is the source that inspires all the other 248 positive Mitzvot as the Rambam writes that in order to fulfill all Mitzvot with truth one needs to feel true Love for Hashem. The biblical commandment of ืืืืืช that is the biblical commandment to pray leisurely & with meditation, to awaken & reveal the hidden love for Hashem. As you canโt command to love so the Magid of Mezritch explains that the commandment is on the meditation. ืฉืืข ืืฉืจืื we need to meditate that ื ืืืงืื ื ื ืืื than we are assured that we will love Hashem. On the inner love that we all have for Hashem there is no need for a commandment as we love Hashem in that level. The commandment is to reveal it in the G-Dly soul, as well to reveal it in the natural soul where there it did not even exist in a concealed way. When we reveal the love for Hashem to the natural soul that operates our life we elevate the sparks as the purpose of prayer is to elevate the sparks thru the avodah of ืืชืืคืื or ืืชืืคื of the ื ืคืฉ ืืืืื ืืช to the ื ืคืฉ ืืืงืืช. As the blood is the soul & the life of the person, the Blood gets renewed everyday by the food & drink that we consume, we are also effected by our clothing & house that we live in. So when we use it for the ื ืคืฉ ืืืงืืช ืืงืืืฉื that is the ืืืจืืจ ืื ืืฆืืฆืืช that happens when our love for Hashem is revealed during Prayer. Therefore it is important to pray leisurely & meditate to bring out the love for Hashem. However in previous generations that had high level souls they were able to create that level of level of level by praying without the leisure pace & meditation.A Project of Chabad Lubavitch of Southwest Florida 5620 Winkler Road Fort Myers, FL 33919 239-433-7708 www.Chabadswf.org [email protected] Special thanks to Warren Kahminsky for Video Taping the ClassWatch on YouTube: youtu.be/cTCT9vkeS6wBrought to you by: ALL THINGS PODCASTContact us for all your podcast needs: [email protected]

A New Tanya class By Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz โThe powerful impact of Charity to draw down Love & Humility to the essence of your HeartโTanya Last Essays Number 7The Alter Rebbe quotes from the prophet Amos ืืฆืืงื ืื ืื ืืืชื that charity will be revealed with great strength like the strong stream that flows with great strength. The Alter Rebbe explains the mystical insight to the verse ื ืื is a reference to the flow & ืืืชื is a reference to ืืืื. There are 3 interpretations to ืืืชื they are ืชืืงืฃ, ืงืฉื ืืืืฉื which are all found in the ืืืื of the ื ืฉืื of every Jew as the letter Yud is a Dot with a Point on top & on bottom which is a ื ืงืืื ืืืืืื that from the Dot-the humility of Chochma it is drawn in to The chamber of Bina which is than drawn into the essence of the heart so that the essence of the heart gets to experience the Humilty & Love of the total nullification of Chochma. Chochma is called ืชืจืื ืจืืขืื ืืื ืืชืคืจืฉืื as you need Chochma for the world to continue to exist. The four letters that make up the word ืืืชื are all a reference to the future so ืืืชื that has all 4 letters is a reference to a future revelation when Moshiach will be revealed as then the infinite light & the oneness of Hashem into the essence of our heart. Thru drawing down the ื ืื ืืืชื a reference to ืืืื ืขืืืื that will light up the essence of our hearts. The depths of our hearts will be nullified in the oneness of Hashem. By taking off the ืขืจืืช ืืื ืืชืืืืช ืืฉืืืืช As the ืืืื will light up the Heart. The alter Rebbe says this experience that humility & love of ืืืื should shine in our essence of our hearts is possible during exile as well. By awakening ืจืืืื ืจืืื ืืขืืืื ืื on the fact that the spark of Hashem is in Galus because as long as ืืืื ืขืืืื is not revealed & felt in the Heart The spark is in exile as it canโt express itโs true powers in a revealed way. Thru the ืจืืืื ืจืืื it goes out from exile & it shines in the essence of the heart till it wants to cleave & unite with Hashem. As the verse in the Prophet ืืฉืขืืณ says ืืืขืงื ืืฉืจ ืคืื ืืช ืืืจืื the simple meaning is that the reason why Abraham was saved from the furnace so that Yaakov can be born in the future. The spiritual meaning is that when what Abraham represents Love & Kindness is concealed we need Yaakov that represents Rachamim compassion to reveal the love & kindness thatโs concealed. The Alter Rebbe brings from the Zohar that ืืชืขืจืืชื ืืืชืชื ืืชืขืจืืชื ืืืขืืื that when we awaken with in us ืจืืืื ืจืืื which is the attributes of ืจืืื ืื ืืืืืื ืืกืืื to help materially with Gold & Silver the charity causes the flow of the pure intellect of love & humility into the essence of our hearts. The Alter Rebbe quotes from Job that says ืื ืขืืจ ืืขื ืขืืจ ืืื ืืฉืจ ืืืืฉ ืืชื ืืขื ื ืคืฉื that when it comes to saving the G-Dly Soul you should be willing to do anything in other words to give with out limit so that your life should be filled with the life of the infinite light.

A New Tanya class By Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz “Halacha of Torah is much higher than anything we can imagine”
Tanya Last Essays Number 6
In last chapter we learned that Mitzvot & Halacha of Torah Draws down G-Dly light as well as elevation of the holy sparks.
This chapter the Alter Rebbe teaches us that Halacha of Torah is so high in relation to the world as the world does not exist.
When King David recaptured the Ark from the philishtim he carried it on a wagon as he forgot the Torah requirement of ืืืชืฃ ืืฉืื the reason why he forgot as he called the Halachas of Torah ืืืืจืืช.
Why was he punished for calling the Torah ืืืืจืืช ? What is the connection to forgetting how to cary the ark as the appropriate punishment?
The Alter Rebbe quotes the Talmud that says ืืื ืืืืจืืช ืงืจืืช ืืื ืื & we know he was punished for that. Why?
The Zohar says ืฉืืื ืืืืจืืืชื ืืจื ื ื that Torah is praise to HaShem.
What is the praise to HaShem when you say something is forbidden or permissible?
In psalms king David says ืื ืืืื ืืขืฉืื ืืณ ืืื ืขืืงื ืืืฉืืืชืื seemingly Thought comes before action how come it says ืืขืฉืื before ืืืฉืืืชืื?
The Alter Rebbe explains that thru the ืืืื ืืขืฉืื we know the ืืื ืขืืงื ืืืฉืืืชืื.
As we see that all the worlds higher & lower are dependent on the minute detail of the fulfillment of the Mitzvot.
For example:
A sacrifice when done correctly creates a high level union that all the worlds receive its life from. If not done correctly so the worlds are not elevated.
When we put on kosher Tefilin the intellect of ืืดื ืืืืืืช ืืืฆืืืืช is revealed as a source of life for the worlds. If it’s not kosher so the intellect disappears.
The same applies to all the negative precepts that it affects all the worlds.
This is the meaning of ืื ืืืื ืืขืฉืื ืืณ when you think about all the worlds that are totally nullified to a minute detail of the Torah & The Torah is the depth of ืืืฉืื ืขืืืื ื ืืืืืชื ืืชืืจื so you see the infinite power of ืขืืงื ืืืฉืืืชืื.
In other words thru the worlds that are dependent on the Torah that is dependent on the depth of the thought of HaShem we see the real power of HaShem.
Just like our hair comes from our intellect.
As the Zohar says that Halachas are like the hair that comes from the intellect.
This is the reason for king David’s rejoicing as he was so happy with his Torah study in the midst of all his challenges. As he felt that the whole world & everything taking place in it has no value in comparison to one point of Torah study.
For this he was punished. As this idea that the whole world is nullified by one nuance in Torah this Torah only comes from ืืืฆืื ืืืช of the ืขืืืง ืืืืฉื of HaShem. As the Arizal says ื ืืืืืช ืืืื ืฉืืืขืื ืชืืจื.
However the ืคื ืืืืืช ืฉืืขืืืง of the ืืืฉืื ืขืืืื ื which is the ืคื ืืืืืช ืืชืืจื is unified with the infinite light that is totally one with the infinite light.
In reference to the infinite light all the worlds are like nothing as if they don’t exist. As HaShem has not changed from before to after creation.
Therefore even for ืคื ืืืืืช ืืชืืจื which is unified with the infinite light there is no room to praise HaShem based on the worlds as the worlds have no value.
The ืคื ืืืืืช ืืชืืจื is not for humans to rejoice rather it’s for HaShem to rejoice as HaShem is the only one that understands it & knows it’s place & value as he’s one with the Torah. As it’s concealed from humans as the verse says ืืคื ื ืื ืืจืื as the arizal explains this to mean ืคื ืืืืืช ืืชืืจื. And as the verse says in proverbs ืืืื ืืฆืื ืฉืขืฉืืขืื that it’s for HaShem an enjoyment.
This level of ืคื ืืืืืช is the source of the Neshamot as the verse says ืืืืื ืืฆืื ืืืื & the Medrash says to read it ืืืื like a child being fed from the ืคื ืืืืืช.
The level of ืืืฆืื ืืืช is what gives life force to the world.
As the Torah has ืคื ืื ืืืืืจ says ืืืื ืืชืืื ืคื ืื ืืืืืจ.
Since king David praised ืืืฆืื ืืืช of Torah that’s connected to the world therefore he was punished with ืฉืืื as that comes from ืืืืจืืื as in ืคื ืืืืืช -

A New Tanya class By Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz โWhy is it crucial to Study all of Jewish Law before you pass awayโTanya Last Essays Number 5The Alter Rebbe is going to explain the reason why by studying Jewish Law even of Law that might not apply or perhaps never even happen we are elevating the holy sparks of ืชืื. The Alter Rebbe explains that anything that is forbidden according to the Torah even a small sin receives its life force from the ืงืืืคืืช other wise it would not exist. Even If the prohibition never happened the source for itโs possibility exists in the world of the kelipot. Even sins that never happened or never will happen is still rooted in ืืืื ืขืืืื that was all given to Moshe Rabeinu at Mount Sinai as the Talmud says ืฉืื ืชืืืื ืืชืืง ืขืชืื ืืืืฉ was given to Moshe Rabeinu at Sinai as well as all the hypothetical questions of Rabbi Yermiya as well as the hypothetical questions of a sleeve over the first born as the Torah that is from ืืืื ืขืืืื has with in it ืืื ืกืืฃ as the Zohar says ืืื ืืกื ืืจืชื from ืืืื ืขืืืื it goes in to Malchus & Torah is ืคื a reference to Malchut & from there it goes into ืืืดืข. The kelipot receive their life force from the ืืืืจืื of the ten holy Sefirot, specifically from the garments of the ten Sefirot of ืืืดืข more specific from the garments of ืืฆืืจื & ืขืฉืื. When you learn Halacha with Speach & thought the Kelipot are separated from the Kedusha. How come the Torah itself did not separate the Kelipah out? The Alter rebbe brings the Talmud Nedarim page 81 side 1 that the reason the Torah is not handed over automatically as they have not made the blessing before they studied. The mystical interpretation is: Beracha means to draw down a reference to drawing down the infinite light into the Torah. When we study Torah we draw down the infinite light into the torah & that has the power to elevate the sparks of the subject we are learning about even if what we are learning did not or will not exist. The drawing down happens when your ืืืืงื ืืขืืืื your image above studies what your studying down here in its source ืื ืืงืื ืืืขืืจ ืื ืคืื ืืืืดืข. This is the reason why every ื ืคืฉ ืจืื ืื ืฉืื has to study all 613 commandments in thought speech & action on the level of ืคืฉื ืจืื ืืจืืฉ ืืกืื to elevate all 288 sparks if we donโt accomplish our mission we need to come back in another ืืืืื to complete the task. When moshiach arrives & we will have finished the elevation of the holy sparks so the main study of Torah will be in the positive commandments to elevate the ื ืคืฉ ืจืื ืื ืฉืื higher & higher to the infinite light. We will also study the Torah of the 365 negative commandments in the source which is ืืืืจืืช ืืงืืืฉื to sweeten them with the ืืกืืื of the 248 positive commandments to unify them together. Hence the Torah is everlasting in general & even specifically all the Mitzvot even those that might not apply as they are all part of the one Torah & have a place in the ื ืืืืจืืช ืืงืืืฉื like they 365 negative precepts as they are the blood that gives life force to the vessels of ืืขืืจ ืื ืคืื.

A New Tanya class By Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz “The Power of Prayer to Heal & the powerful connection with G-D thru Mitzvot”
Tanya Last Essays Number 4
In ืคืจื ืขืฅ ืืืื it says that today the main transformation of the holy sparks that are dispersed in ืงืืืคืช ื ืืื is thru ืชืคืื. The Alter Rebbe will explain why this is so & not thru ืชืืจื or ืืฆืืืช.
Hashem set a certain amount of infinite light that is revealed in ืืฆืืืืช when we study Torah or do Mitzvot we add light in the world of Atzilut. Thru Torah study we add light to the intellect of Atzilut when we do Mitzvot we add light to the external midot of Atzilut that are drawn down to Torah & Mitzvot in this world however the light does not penetrate in the world itself.
However thru Prayer the light of Atzilut comes down in this world to affect real change where if a person is sick they can be healed or to bring down real tangible blessings. Which does not happen thru Torah study or Mitzvot for even the change of an item when dedicated to a mitzvah is a human accomplishment not divine as in prayer.
The reason why prayer is so powerful as when one prays ืืื ืืืื that creates feminine waters that reaches the powerful name of ืกืดื that is the source of the ืจืคืดื lights of ืชืื that draws down a ืืื ืืืื energy.
Hence ืชืคืื is called ืื ืฉืขื the literal meaning as we pray for transient items the spiritual meaning is that ืฉืขื is a reference to the sefira of Malchut that draws down the light to lowest worlds. ืชืืจื is called ืืื ืขืืื as ืขืืื is a reference to ืืดื of ืืฆืืืืช as the Torah creates more light in ืืฆืืืืช.
Hence we see the power of prayer as prayer has the power to elevate the holy sparks of ืชืื to the highest level of the name ืกืดื until the infinite light. Especially today when when our souls are not on such a high level we need prayer to do the transformation.
If there is a mitzvah to do & no one else can do it we may stop studying Torah or Praying to do the mitzvah as thru Mitzvot we transform the holy sparks & this is the purpose of creation.
When you learn Kabbalah you only connect to the ืืฆืืืืช. Nevertheless it is a huge mitzvah as the verse says in Devarim ืืืืขืช ืืืื and in Divrei Hayamim ืืข ืืช ืืืงื ืืืื that we need to know & meditate on the spiritual structure & flow as that will bring us to ืืขืืืื ืืื ืฉืื as it says in Devarim ืืืฆืื ื ื ืืขืฉืืช ืืช ืื ืืืืงืื ืืืื ืืืจืื ืืช ืืณ ืืืงืื ื since the purpose is to have Yirat Hashem & studying Kabbalah & chasidus will bring us to Yirat Hashem. Now this is only one mitzvah. However in order to transform the world we need to study & observe all the Mitzvot.
Another reason why Mitzvot are so powerful as Mitzvot receive their energy from the name ืกืดื the filler of hashem name with ื of the ืคื ืืืืืช of ืืื ืงืืืื which is associated with ืชืื & we receive our energy from the name ืืดื the filler of hashem name with ื of the ืืฆื of ืืื ืงืืืื
Which is associated with ืชืืงืื hence we that are from ื”ื need to eat from ืืืื ืฆืืื ืืื as they are from ืก”ื.
Another reason why Mitzvot are so powerful is meditation & inspiration cause you to be elevated for a short while & Mitzvot draw down the external light into this world that causes the internal world to be elevated hence moshe Rabeinu prayed 515 prayers to enter the land of Israel that he can draw down the light into the world.
How does the physical item that we are using to do the mitzvah have the power to draw down such a great light. Just like when we plant the seed just acts as ืืื ื ืืงืืื to awaken the ืื ืืฆืืื in the ground the same is when we do a mitzvah or study about the mitzvah the physical item awakens the ืฉื ืกืดื to draw down the light to this world.
Even with the 365 negative Mitzvot or positive Mitzvot that don’t necessarily apply when one studies these Mitzvot you still draw down the same level of ืืืื ืขืืืื into this world. As in reference to love & awe there is a real concealment. However with the halachot there is no real concealment of the ืืืื ืขืืืื.

A New Tanya class By Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz “The Power of Prayer to Heal & the powerful connection with G-D thru Mitzvot”
Tanya Last Essays Number 4
In ืคืจื ืขืฅ ืืืื it says that today the main transformation of the holy sparks that are dispersed in ืงืืืคืช ื ืืื is thru ืชืคืื. The Alter Rebbe will explain why this is so & not thru ืชืืจื or ืืฆืืืช.
Hashem set a certain amount of infinite light that is revealed in ืืฆืืืืช when we study Torah or do Mitzvot we add light in the world of Atzilut. Thru Torah study we add light to the intellect of Atzilut when we do Mitzvot we add light to the external midot of Atzilut that are drawn down to Torah & Mitzvot in this world however the light does not penetrate in the world itself.
However thru Prayer the light of Atzilut comes down in this world to affect real change where if a person is sick they can be healed or to bring down real tangible blessings. Which does not happen thru Torah study or Mitzvot for even the change of an item when dedicated to a mitzvah is a human accomplishment not divine as in prayer.
The reason why prayer is so powerful as when one prays ืืื ืืืื that creates feminine waters that reaches the powerful name of ืกืดื that is the source of the ืจืคืดื lights of ืชืื that draws down a ืืื ืืืื energy.
Hence ืชืคืื is called ืื ืฉืขื the literal meaning as we pray for transient items the spiritual meaning is that ืฉืขื is a reference to the sefira of Malchut that draws down the light to lowest worlds. ืชืืจื is called ืืื ืขืืื as ืขืืื is a reference to ืืดื of ืืฆืืืืช as the Torah creates more light in ืืฆืืืืช.
Hence we see the power of prayer as prayer has the power to elevate the holy sparks of ืชืื to the highest level of the name ืกืดื until the infinite light. Especially today when when our souls are not on such a high level we need prayer to do the transformation.
If there is a mitzvah to do & no one else can do it we may stop studying Torah or Praying to do the mitzvah as thru Mitzvot we transform the holy sparks & this is the purpose of creation.
When you learn Kabbalah you only connect to the ืืฆืืืืช. Nevertheless it is a huge mitzvah as the verse says in Devarim ืืืืขืช ืืืื and in Divrei Hayamim ืืข ืืช ืืืงื ืืืื that we need to know & meditate on the spiritual structure & flow as that will bring us to ืืขืืืื ืืื ืฉืื as it says in Devarim ืืืฆืื ื ื ืืขืฉืืช ืืช ืื ืืืืงืื ืืืื ืืืจืื ืืช ืืณ ืืืงืื ื since the purpose is to have Yirat Hashem & studying Kabbalah & chasidus will bring us to Yirat Hashem. Now this is only one mitzvah. However in order to transform the world we need to study & observe all the Mitzvot.
Another reason why Mitzvot are so powerful as Mitzvot receive their energy from the name ืกืดื the filler of hashem name with ื of the ืคื ืืืืืช of ืืื ืงืืืื which is associated with ืชืื & we receive our energy from the name ืืดื the filler of hashem name with ื of the ืืฆื of ืืื ืงืืืื
Which is associated with ืชืืงืื hence we that are from ื”ื need to eat from ืืืื ืฆืืื ืืื as they are from ืก”ื.
Another reason why Mitzvot are so powerful is meditation & inspiration cause you to be elevated for a short while & Mitzvot draw down the external light into this world that causes the internal world to be elevated hence moshe Rabeinu prayed 515 prayers to enter the land of Israel that he can draw down the light into the world.

A New Tanya class By Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz โThe most impactful Prayers & Torah studyโTanya Last Essays Number 3In chapter 39 & 40 of the first section of Tanya we learnt that when one prays or studies Torah his soul is elevated. The elevation depends on the ืืืื ื of ืืืืช ืืณ ืืืจืืช ืืณ. If the love & Awe is based on intellect than the soul is elevated to the world of Beriyah the world of intellect, if the the love & Awe is natural as all Jews naturally love Hashem than they are elevated to the world Yetzira the world of emotions. If one studies Torah with out the love & Awe for Hashem than itโs elevated to the externalWorlds & creates angels in the world of Yetzira. When one prays with out love & Awe it is not elevated to the world of Yetzira. The question is why is Torah & tefilah equal when done with love & Awe, however when done with our there is a distinction as Torah is still elevated & prayer is not elevated rather actually descends lower. The Alter Rebbe explains. When one learns Torah you have to use your mind otherwise itโs not called learning so even when your lacking the revealed love & Awe the natural love & Awe exists so that the Torah is elevated to the world of Yetzira. When one learns Torah for ulterior motives Honor or money than the Torah is not elevated. When one does not have love & Awe in prayer even though that itself does not downgrade the prayer however the strange thoughts enter & that does downgrade the prayer. Nevertheless one can recite those prayers again & have the right feeling of love & Awe that will elevate all the past prayers done with out love & Awe. So even though Torah has an advantage over prayer in that neutral Torah is elevated & neutral prayer is not. Prayer has an advantage as downgraded prayer for negative thoughts can be elevated by praying the same prayer with holy thoughts Torah can not be elevated with such a simple task. Torah can still be elevated once downgraded by doing Teshuva hence a person should always learn Torah even for the wrong reasons as we can repent & elevate the Torah. The Alter Rebbe clarifies two different pieces of Zohar that talk about the elevation of prayer with out love & Awe where in one place it says itโs elevated to ืืืืืช ืืขืฉืื & in another place it says canโt be elevated the Alter Rebbe explains that it canโt be elevated to ืืดื however all agree it is elevated to ืืืืืช the issue is that ืืืืืช canโt effect change or blessings as it has to go higher to draw down blessings. The Alter Rebbe clarifies another place in the Zohar where it says that prayer with out love & Awe is elevated to as high as ืืดื ืืืจืืื the Alter clarifies that even sins are elevated to those high levels buy unfortunately they are elevated & create a Blemish not a desirable elevation. The Alter Rebbe gives an example where when does a mitzvah he receives garments for his soul from ืื ืขืื ืืชืืชืื ืืขืืื ืืขืฉืื & in another place it says ืืืื ืืณ ืืขืืื ืืืจืืื as the elevation to a higher level is not necessarily the same quality of an elevation. Prayer with strange thoughts is higher than Torah for selfish reasons. As prayer with strange thoughts is elevated to ืืืืืช ืืขืฉืื however the Torah study is not elevated at all. Torah study neutral in other words no love & Awe on the other hand no selfish thoughts just plain study of Torah since every Jew has a natural love for Hashem is not worse than the pure & innocent Torah study of children that is totally elevated (with a child even if he is studying for reward or punishment itโs elevated as a child is pure). The Zohar says that the angels take the Torah study of the children till Atzilut.

A New Tanya class By Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz โMitzvot creates & protects the Holy Union of Male & FemaleโTanya Last Essays Number 2The Alter Rebbe quotes from ืขืฅ ืืืื that the face to face Union of Male & Female ืืดื ืืืืืืช only takes place by fulfilling physical Mitzvot. As before Adam was created the Union was back to back so that the kelipot wonโt leach on to them. The reason is that by fulfillment of physical Mitzvot we create the union on high. The reason why specifically physical Mitzvot as the Zohar explains that to create the union on high we need to elevate ืืดื ืื ืืงืณ ืืืดื the feminine water of the feminine of the small face which is action in other words Mitzvot. Mitzvot have the power to cut & trim all the kelipot that leach onto the union & elevate the good with in the physical to its source to the holiness of Atzilut which has been transformed. This that Adam was able to transform thru prayer (which is seemingly not a physical Mitzvah) as prayer done properly with articulation of speech is considered action as itโs from the ื ืคืฉ ืืืืื ืืช of the body which itโs source Is from Noga. The transformation of Asiyah are elevated to Yetzira wth the permutation of the name Ban from there to Beriah & Atzilut as explained in the Zohar. Hence we understand why meditation on its own does not accomplish anything as you need the elevation of the feminine waters of Noga to draw down a great light to create the union of ืืขืืจ ืื ืคืื ืื ืืงืื as ืืดื would rather receive from its mother โBinaโ & not draw down however when we do Mitzvot that draws down huge energy ืืดื is ready to continue sharing the light. The Alter Rebbe shares from the Zohar that there are some special people that can thru meditation alone draw down this powerful energy that normally only happens by Physical Mitzvot or Saying the words of prayer the reason is as their Soul ื ืจืดื create the feminine waters ืืดื by their self sacrifice for Torah & when they say Tachnun and recite the words ืืืื ืืณ ื ืคืฉื ืืฉื however most people need to do the actual Mitzvot to create the face to face union of ืืดื ืืืืืืช that causes G-D to be revealed in this world.

A New Tanya class By Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz ืดStudying Torah with Love & Awe draws down the greatest light to this worldโTanya Last Essays Number 1The Alter Rebbe starts by saying to to look deeply into the first section of Tanya chapter 40. There the Alter Rebbe explains that by Studying Torah & Doing Mitzvot we create a oneness with Hashem & by adding Love & Awe we take the Torah & Mitzvot out of this world & we bring that oneness to the infinite light of Hashem. On one hand love & Awe on its own donโt accomplish much as you need Torah & Mitzvot to create the Union, however on the other hand when its connected to Torah & Mitzvot it brings it to the highest places. Like the analogy of the Bird where the main part is the head & body & itโs kosher with out wings on the other hand it canโt fly with out wings. The Alter Rebbe begins with the question: How by reading stories in the Torah are you connected with ืืืื ืขืืืื? When you learn Torah so as your comprehending the Torah your connected to the intellect of Hashem, when your learning the Halacha your connected to the will of Hashem, even though the stories have deep mystical insights for example ืืืฉืง ืืขืงื ืืจืื which is seemingly a simple story however itโs a reference of huge levels of ืจืืืื coming down to ืื ืกืช ืืฉืจืื however most people donโt know the mystical insights. The Alter Rebbe quotes from the Zohar that when one studies Torah down here the ืืืืงื ืืืื ืืขืืืื ืืืขืื studies Torah as well so even though when studying the stories we are not connected to the ืืืื ืขืืืื thru the stories we are nevertheless connected via the source of our soul that is studying on high & the source is connected with ืืืื ืขืืืื. This connection that the source of the soul is connected to ืืืื ืขืืืื applies as well when one just thinks words of Torah. However when one uses his speech to study Torah if heโs totally nullified to Hashem than heโs elevated to the world of Atzilut. If one uses his intellect to inspire his emotions than heโs elevated to the world of Beriah. If one just uses his natural emotions of love & Awe than heโs elevated to the world of Yetzirah. If one just reads the words than heโs elevated to the 10 sefirot of of Asiyah as you pierce thru from this physical world to the spiritual world of Asiyah. However thru meditation with out saying the words the only way your connected to ืืืื ืขืืืื is with your source of your soul on high that is studying simultaneously with you. The Alter Rebbe poses a question as we know the Zohar says that the meditation does not create any effect even for good things how come we just said that it does have an effect thru your soul on high?The Alter Rebbe explains that meditation does create the soul on high to create light & energy however it stays on high. When one uses his speech to study or action to do Mitzvot than the light & energy goes on high & draws down the light & energy back in this world. Therefore you have not fulfilled your obligation of your soul coming down to this world to bring light into the physical. In order for the Torah & Mitzvot to be elevated one has to have Awe & Love. The Alter Rebbe asks that we learnt that saying the words does get elevated even with out love & Awe. The Alter Rebbe explains with out love & Awe the elevation is only to external levels not the internal levels like the Sefirot or in the soul of ืืื ืืขืืืื even in the internal level of ืขืฉืื as the Zohar says with out love & Awe it canโt rise to the level of ืงืื ืืณ however with love & awe itโs elevated to the internal sefirot to be ืงืื ืืณ.

A New Tanya class By Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz “Charity creates vessels for the infinite light at the resurrection of the dead”
"Siyum Haditch Ukraine"
Tanya Igeret Hakodesh Chapter 32
The Alter Rebbe quotes from Vezot Habracha Moshe Rabeinu Blessing to the tribe of Levi ืืจื ืืณ ืืืื ืืคืขื ืืื ืืจืฆื the Talmud says this is a blessing for their service in the temple in ืืืืช ืืจื ื ืชื it says that there is one thing in exile that accomplishes the same as sacrifices in the temple & that is ืฆืืงื ืืืืืืืช ืืกืืื.
The Alter Rebbe blesses those that inspire others to give charity & those give charity that their good deeds should be elevated ืืคื ื ืืณ ืชืืื as well as they should continue to give & give more as that’s a true sign of strength when you give more than you want as it says in ethics of our fathers ืืืืื ืืืืจ ืืืืืฉ ืืช ืืฆืจื.
Those that inspire others in a certain sense is greater than those that give.
For those that are the givers the Alter Rebbe quotes from the prophet Yeshaya ืฆืืงืชื ืขืืืช ืืขื the feminine expression of ืขืืืช as your being inspired by others to give so you’re a ืืงืื nevertheless it says ืืขื as when you give charity from a place of ืืกื ืืืืื the good energy stays until the resurrection of the dead & then the infinite light of ืกืืื ืื ืขืืืื is revealed in this world.
In order for this infinite light of ืกืืื ืื ืขืืืื to find expression in this world it needs a proper vessel just like the body is a proper vessel for the soul. Or as the prophet Jeremiah says ืืืื ืื ืืืจื ืืืฉ just like Fire only gives of light when it’s grounded with a wick that’s consumed by the Fire same thing in order for the infinite light to shine it needs a vessel that is totally nullified in the infinite light.
The vessel for the infinite light is ืืกื ืื ืืืืช ืืื to help & give those that are in need as the Zohar states clearly ืืืื ืืืคืื ืชืงืื ืช ืืื how many bodies have you created to receive the light ืืืชืงืจืืื ืืชืงืื ื ืื ืืกื ืืจืืขื ืืืื ื the Zohar says that Chesed is the right hand in other words the right strong vessel as the right is the main part so Chesed is what creates the vessels.
As we say in our prayers on Rosh Hashanah ืืืืฉื ืฆืืงื that ืฆืืงื is the garment to bring in the infinite light of Hashem.
As the Talmud says ืืื ืืฆืืงื ืืฉืชืืืช ืืื ืืคื ืืกื ืฉืื & the prophet says ืืจืขื ืืื ืืฆืืงื ืงืฆืจื ืืคื ืืกื that the reward of ืฆืืงื is based on the ืืกื ืื ืืืืช ืืื that goes with the ืฆืืงื
Why is ืฆืืงื called ืืจืืขื and the reward ืงืฆืืจื? Just like you cut what was planted & hidden in the ground till it was revealed. So to the ืฆืืงื & ืืกื that we do in exile is revealed at the resurrection when the infinite light is revealed in the world.
This union is even greater than the union of the lights & vessels of ืืฆืืืืช of which is says ืืืื ืืืจืืื ืื if in reference to the light of Atzilut the vessels are nullified how much more so are the vessels of ืฆืืงื nullified to the infinite light of ืกืืื ืื ืขืืืื that are much greater than the light of ืืฆืืืืช.
This is why ืฆืืงื is written in the feminine (besides the reason as the person is being inspired by others to give so he is a receiver of the others inspiration) as ืฆืืงืชื ืขืืืช ืืขื as the ืฆืืงื creates the vessel for the infinite light of Hashem at the time of the resurrection of the dead.
There is a higher level of tzedaka as it says in psalms ืฆืืง ืืคื ืื ืืืื the masculine energy which is kindness which is awakened by the person himself thru meditation in Shema to Love Hashem, to Cleave to Hashem, to have self sacrifice as you say ืืื & by ืืื ืืืื in a literal sense as you love Hashem, with mesiras Nefesh your awakened to give charity. ืืืืื ืืคื ืื ืื ืคื ืื ืื ืื ืืืื ืืขืืืื ืืื or as ืืชืขืจืืชื ืืืชืชื creates a ืืชืขืจืืชื ืืืขืืื so when you are inspired on your own you draw down the essence of the ืืืจ ืืกืืื that’s why it’s called ืฆืืง ืืฉืื ืืืจ however when some one else inspires you it’s feminine energy & you only draw down a ray of the light of ืืืจ ืืกืืื.

A New Tanya class By Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz โLove & Unity will create the greatest BlessingsโTanya Igeret Hakodesh Chapter 31The Alter Rebbe quotes from the Zohar that the Shechina is Sick in exile. For example: when the body is not well, the reason being is the flow of energy of the blood of the soul that flows from the heart to & thru all the limbs & back to the heart when there is an obstruction & blockage in the flow the person becomes ill G-D should protect us. Hashem the Shechina is called Heart as the verse says in psalms ืืฆืืจ ืืืื & the souls are called limbs, the Shechina resides in the worlds of of Beriyah, Yetzira & Asiyah however it first goes to Neshamot of Yisroel as Neshamot weโre created from Hashemโs ืืืฉืื which is higher than the world which is created from ืืืืืจ as it says in the midrash that Hashem consulted with ื ืฉืืืช ืืฉืจืื before creating the world. The Zohar explains any flow of energy from on high to down below the energy flows both ways as it says in Sefer Yetzira ื ืขืืฅ ืชืืืืชื ืืกืืคื ืืกืืคื ืืชืืืืชื or as the Arizal says ืืืจ ืืฉืจ ืืืืจ ืืืืจ or as the verse in Yechezkal says ืืืืืืช ืจืฆืื ืืฉืื so as the Shechina is the heart & Neshamot are the limbs to teach us that when the souls are united & unified than the flow flows seamlessly to connect us to the infinite light to cleave to Hashem as the verse says ืืชื ื ืฆืืื ืืืื ืืืืื ืืคื ื ืืณ ืืืงืืื when we are ืืืืื United than we are ืืคื ื even higher than ืืณ ืืืงืืื. This is the reason the Talmud says that the destruction of the second temple, the Jews going into exile, the concealment of the Shechina is due to the sin of hatred & not getting along G-D forbid hence the Shechina is called sick in Galus as the energy is not flowing. Hence the plural term ืกืืื ื ืืคืืื ืืจืืคื ืืืืื as the plural is a reference to the limbs referring to the Neshamot that are not getting along.

A New Tanya class By Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz โThe Blessings created by doing MitzvotโTanya Igeret Hakodesh Chapter 30The Talmud says that one that goes to shul regularly & one day does not show up Hashem inquires where were you. The Talmud quotes from the prophet Isiah ืึดึคื ืึธืึถืึ ืึฐืจึตึฃื ืึฐืืึธึื ืฉึนืืึตึืขึท ืึฐึผืงึฃืึนื ืขึทืึฐืึผึืึน ืึฒืฉึถืึฃืจ ื ืึธืึทึฃืึฐ ืึฒืฉึตืืึดึืื ืึฐืึตึฅืื ื ึนึืึทืึผึ ืึืึน ืึดืึฐืึทืึ ืึฐึผืฉึตืึฃื ืึฐืืึธึื ืึฐืึดืฉึธึผืืขึตึื ืึตึผืืึนืึธึฝืืืWho among you reveres the LORD And heeds the voice of His servant?โ Though he walk in darkness And have no light, Let him trust in the name of the LORD And rely upon his God.The Talmud says even when itโs dark we need to have trust in Hashem show up to shul. The Alter Rebbe says this applies to all Mitzvot & especially Charity which is compared to all Mitzvot. Even though you did not make your charity a life long commitment nevertheless if you gave in the past to support Isreal they are in real need & in exile Israel & ืืืืืช are called ืกืืืช ืืื ืื ืืคืืช. We need to establish & elevate that there should be the union of ืืื ืืืื which is 1) uniting Jew with another Jew. 2) Uniting ืืืืืช with ืืดื which is also called uniting ืงืืืฉื ืืจืื ืืื with the ืฉืืื ื. The more quantitative times you give charity the more times you create the union of ืืื ืืืื. As the Talmud says ืื ืคืจืืื ืืคืจืืื ืืฆืืจืคืช ืืืฉืืื ืืืื what is the ืืฉืืื ืืืื as the Zohar says ืืืืชื ืืืื ืืืืณ ืืฉืืื ืืขืืจ ืืืงืื ื a city of ืืฉืืื which is referring to ืืืืืช drawing down the infinite light into Malchus. The purpose is to create a ืืชืขืจืืชื ืืืชืชื that will draw down a ืืชืขืจืืชื ืืืขืืื when we practice ืืืื, ืื ืืืกื by giving charity with a good will & ืกืืจ ืคื ืื ืืคืืช we cause ืืืจ ืืณ ืคื ืื which draws down ืื ืืืกื & good will from the infinite source of life which Hashemโs greatness we canโt imagine into ืืืืืชื ืืืืืช ืื ืขืืืืื as Malchus is the revealed world the worlds that have quantitative limits. This is the definition of ืืฉืืื ืืืื which is accomplished thru charity that brings peace as the verse in Yeshaya says ืืืื ืืขืฉื ืืฆืืงื ืฉืืื. As Peace is what unites & unifies two polar opposites which is 1) all the way in heaven the infinite light 2) down below Malchus which depends into ืืจืืื, ืืฆืืจื ืืขืฉืื in its limited & finite existence.

A New Tanya class By Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz
“Jewish Law will connect you to the Ratzon / Will of G-D”
Tanya Igeret Hakodesh Chapter 29
Shlomo Hamelech in ืืฉืื says ืืฉืช ืืื ืขืืจืช ืืขืื on a spiritual level ืืฉืช ืืื a reference to ืืืืืช of ืชืืจื ืฉืืขื ืคื is the crown of ืืขืื a reference to ืชืืจื ืฉืืืชื.
The Talmud quotes the Mishna in Avot that says ืืืืฉืชืืฉ ืืชืื ืืืฃ & explains those that use one that learns Jewish Law which are considered the Crown of Torah.
The ืชื ื ืืื ืืืืื says whoever studies Jewish Law is guaranteed a place in the world to come.
The question is why is Jewish Law called Crowns, why this great reward as a place in the world to come that you won’t receive by studying other areas in Torah.
Also in the Talmud that one that the learns a chapter of Mishna a day fulfills their obligation why again specifically Mishna.
The Arizal says that every person needs to fulfill all 613 commandments in thought speech & action to create garments for the soul other wise the soul will be reincarnated many times till the soul receives all its garments. Besides Mitzvot that apply to a king & the king does it on every ones behalf.
The Zohar explains the reason for these garments: since the Nefesh, Ruach & Neshama are creations so they can’t receive the infinite light, even with all tzimzumim it can’t handle anything from the infinite light, the only way they can receive is when the garment is created from the infinite light so this garment is 1) “created” from the infinite light 2) created from the “infinite light” this unique blend is Mitzvot that can create a garment for the soul as example looking at the sun thru sunglasses & like the cloud acted as a garment for Moshe Rabeinu to receive the great light at mount Sinai as explained in the Zohar.
There is a very special light which is reserved for righteous people in the future which is called ื ืขื ืืณ ืืฆืืฆืืืช which is a deep yearning for ืืืชืขื ื ืขื ืืณ as well the 400 worlds of ืืืกืืคืื as referenced in the Torah as ืืจืืข ืืืืช ืฉืงื ืืกืฃ so this garment receives its life force from a external part of these high levels. As for example we have deep ืชืขื ืื for certain things for example coming up with a new brainstorming idea so the external part of this huge pleasure will be the ืจืฆืื the will which will be a will that’s enjoyable as it’s source is in Tanug.
The same applies to the infinite light that ืจืฆืื is the external part of Tanug which is ื ืืขื ืืณ ืืฆืืฆืืืช ืืขืืืื ืืืกืืคืื. Even though by hashem it’s all one tanug & Ratzon etc. however for us to comprehend we break it down to different levels. As we see when we comprehend a great idea it makes us really happy as happiness is higher than intellect. Hence the Zohar says that ืืื ื is called ืขืืืดื as it’s the revelation of ืืืื ืขื ืชืขื ืื as Torah comes from ืืืื as well as Torah & Hashem are one.
The ืืงืืืืื call ืจืฆืื - ืืชืจ ืขืืืื which have 620 strands of light. For example when you have huge beams from floor to ceiling. So ืืชืจ is extremely high higher than ืืืื it’s like a Crown over ืืืื this high level resides in the 613 commandments as well as the 7 rabbinic commandments which are all Action oriented Mitzvot the verbal Mitzvot are considered action even the thought Mitzvot were given to us physical human beings. A soul with out a body has no commandments.
So the Mitzvot are beams that go from the Ratzon Haelyon down to this physical world & create garments for the souls performing the Mitzvot as well as the soul in this world bonding with the infinite G-D first to ืจืฆืื than than to ื ืืขื ืืณ ืืฆืืฆืืืช higher than ืืชืจ. The 7 rabbinic Mitzvot are part of the 613 Mitzvot to create the 613 garments for every part of of our body.
The Alter Rebbe quotes the Zohar that states clearly that when we do Mitzvot draws down the light from ืืชืจ ืขืืืื which is ื ืขื ืืณ. Even though the Zohar says that Mitzvot draw from ืื ืขืื ืืชืืชืื & Kavana & feeling draw from ืื ืขืื ืืขืืืื nevertheless the kavana & feeling are associated to a physical... -

A New Tanya class By Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz โThe huge impact that a Tzadik has on this world after his passingโTanya Igeret Hakodesh Chapter 28This is a letter of Comfort from the Alter Rebbe to his Mechutan Reb Levi Yitzchok of Berditchov on the passing of his son Reb Meir. In the Torah the Parsha that records Miriamโs death is right next to the laws of the purification of the Red Heifer. The Talmud says that this teaches us that just like the Red Heifer atones for sins so does the death of righteous people atone for sins. The Alter Rebbe asks why is it specifically next to the laws of the red Heifer that is performed outside the temple & not next to the laws of a regular sacrifice thatโs brought on the Alter that is dedicated for atonement. The Alter Rebbe quotes from the Zohar & the Ari Zal the spiritual significance of sacrifices brought on the altar: A sacrifice is an elevation of ืืดื the feminineโs water of the animal soul of Noga to its source which is the 4 animals of the chariot that varies the throne, that causes a decent of ืืดื masculine waters from ืืื ืฉืขื ืืืกื ืฉื ืงืจื ืืืื ืืืดื in other words it only draws a internal energy into this world. However when they burn the Red Heifer & place in the ืขืฅ ืืจื ืืืืื ืืืื ืืืื ืื ืืืคืจ that is called ืงืืืืฉ ืื ืืืืช which is ืงืืฉ ืืขืืืื that is called ืืื ืืืืืืื an expression mentioned in the Torah in relation to the Mana the Zohar says this level is ืืืื ืขืืืื ืืืืื ืกืชืืืื ืืืจืื ืื ืคืื hence the Zohar says many times ืืืืื ืืชืืจืืจื as it has the power to transform ืืฉืืื ืื ืืืจื which is called ืขืืื ืืชืืงืื as ืืืื ืกืชืืืื ืืืดื elevates ืชืื & the broken vessels that fell into ืืืดืข hence it has the power to purify even the impurityโs of death the highest level of impurity. It is know that Chochma draws energy from the eighth Mazal of the 13 attributes of Mercy namely ื ืืฆืจ ืืกื now ื ืืฆืจ has the same letters as ืจืฆืื when a Tzadik passes away it is a ืขืช ืจืฆืื that is revealed & shines in a revealed way from on high to down below for those Tzadikim that served Hashem with love & self sacrifice when they said Shema in the evening & morning so they elevated ืืดื to ืืืดื. As well as when they studied Torah as that comes from Chochma. This causes a decent of ืืดื from the level of ื ืืฆืจ ืืกื this shines in a revealed way when they pass away. As itโs known what ever we do while weโre alive that remains concealed when you pass away it is revealed. When this level of ื ืืฆืจ ืืกื is revealed in this world when the Tzadik passes away there shines ืืกื ืืณ thru out the worlds for those that are in awe of the Tzadik & it affects salvation for all to atone for the generations sins even intentional sins which are from the 3 impure kelipot as the Mazal of ื ืืฆืจ of intellect of Arich Anpin is the source of transformation from the dark to light to create real Tikun. However sacrifices on the altar only atone for accidental sin hence the connection between the passing of Miriam near the laws of the Red Heifer hence the Yalkut says ืื ืืืืช as water represents drawing down from ืงืืืฉ ืืขืืืื till ืืืื ืกืชืืืื the source of all transformation.

A New Tanya class & Pre Gimmul Tamuz Farbrengen By Rabbi Yitzchok Minkowicz “Our Relationship with the Rebbe is now even Stronger”
Tanya Igeret Hakodesh Chapter 27 & Pre Gimmul Tamuz Farbrengen:
“What is a Rebbe?"
“Can anyone be a Chosid?"
“How can one live a Spiritual Life?"
“The Secret to How Chabad is growing so stromg since Gimmul Tamuz?"
Tanya Igeret Hakodesh Chapter 27:
“Our Relationship with the Rebbe is now even Stronger”
The Alter Rebbe comforts the chasidim after the passing of Reb Mendel of Vitebsk (Horodak) as they received spiritually Torah Teachings & guidance in serving Hashem thru Prayer as well as materialistic success thru Blessings & advise.
Based on a Saying of the Sages that after a Tzadik dies it is said ืืฉืืง ืืืื ืืื ืื that the Tzadik leaves over “Life” to all those that are alive.
“Life” is a “Life” of Faith, Awe & Love (The essence of Chesed)
The Tzadik leaves that “Life” of Faith, Awe & Love to those that are A) ืืงืืฉืจ connected to the Tzadik B) Have a ืืืื ืจืื ืืืืืช ืขืืื a overflowing Love & everlasting love for the Tzadik C) ืืชืงืฉืจืืช ืืืช ืืืืืช ืืืช A True connection & A true love as that will create an automatic response as the rule of ืืืื ืืคื ืื ืื ืคื ืื the face you show in the mirror that is exactly what you automatically receive back.
The Alter Rebbe quotes the Zohar that says ืืฆืืืงื ืืืชืคืืจ ืืฉืชืื ืืืืืื ืขืืืื ืืชืืจ ืืืืืืื when a Tzadik passes away he is found in ALL WORLDS, MORE THAN WHEN HE WAS ALIVE. Meaning even in this Materialistic physical world the Tzadik is present even greater than before with the light of the Tzadik that shines down from ืืฉืื ืืฉืจ ืืจืื ืืณ referring the Garden of Eden which is from Malchus of Atzilut that has with in it ืืดื ืืืฆืืืืช we receive both spiritual blessings as well as physical & material blessings as the Zohar states ืืฆืืืงื ืืื ืื ืขื ืขืืื that the Tzadik protects the world & protects even more after they pass away & if they would not pray for this world the world would cease to exist & Whoever is closer to the Tzadik receives the blessings first.
The Alter Rebbe will now explain these deep Kabbalah concepts:
The Zohar said:
ืืฆืืืงื ืืืชืคืืจ ืืฉืชืื ืืืืืื ืขืืืื ืืชืืจ ืืืืืืื
We understand why the Tzadik is found more in the higher worlds as he goes there However why is the Tzadik more present in this world?
The Alter Rebbe explains this based on the teaching of our sages ืืฉืืง ืืืื ืืื ืื that the life of a Tzadik is not materialistic rather it is spiritual which is Faith, Awe & love these 3 spiritual components exist in every world according to its level.
Hence: when the Tzadik was physically alive in this world so the Faith, Awe & love they existed in a physical space which is the ื ืคืฉ in the body so the students only received a ray of these attributes thru the Tzadik Speech & holy thoughts. Therefore our sages teach us that it takes 40 years to have full comprehension of our teacher.
However once the Tzadik passes away so the ื ืคืฉ stays in the grave & the ืจืื goes to ืื ืขืื so the Faith, Awe & love rise to a spiritual world so anyone that is ืืงืืฉืจ connected to the Tzadik can receive from the essence of the attributes of the Tzadik.
As we see when Yaakov received the blessings from his father he walked in with the energy of ืื ืขืื as ืื ืขืื can be drawn down to this world.
Now that we are connected to the Ruach of the Tzadik we receive the essence of the Tzadik’s Faith, Awe & love. As the Tzadik elevated we receive from the Neshama of the Tzadik.
Even though the Tzadik is constantly in a state of elevation the Kedusha never leaves its original place & the students can connect now in this world to the essence of the ืจืื of the Tzadik based on our ืืชืงืฉืจืืช connection & closeness to the Tzadik when he was alive or after he passes away with Great Love as the only way to draw down any spirituality is with great love.
There is another powerful light that shines to the Students of the Tzadik that can not be internalized as it’s to strong so it... -
