“Soul Walking” p:54

AyinBase / Ayin Beis with R' Paltiel Wednesday19 Adar I, 5774 


Page 54

At about a third from the end of page – (line begins: "nikrah...”) For text, click: Here.

Atzilus is called a Godly world. This is contradictory – it is a world, yet Godly; it is Godly yet it is a world...!

Godly means the essential reality. A creation is not an essential reality. The Creator is essential – there is no question of 'where did He come from...?'

(Technical issue:  our recording software froze this morning and the recording was corrupted)

World means multiplicity – many things coming together. Yet atzilus remains a world, yet the Godly light shines there.


We are talking about the original material (chomer ha rishon). The principle of 'original/first': we are able to walk – in essence this is not created by our legs and feet. The feet and legs enable us to express our ability to walk. The principle of walking is movement – a soul quality. So the walking is based on his soul vitality, rather than his legs...

You are not limited to the place where you are. You have a truth that is 'everywhere' – above time and space... The first moment of this truth in revelation, is in the simple movement from place to place. So in that sense the movement is not physical, it is a revelation of something higher than physical movement – representative of the truth of his being.

So the Godliness that is behind it shines through.

The olam ha briah is called 'darkness', even though it is full of creations, they are all representative of this First Being... but they are hidden from revelation. It is full of Godly light...

By contrast the world of atzilus is no a creation at all...

Thought is letters, which contains the wisdom/chochmah. The chochmah is the light of the soul. It is there not because, 'you begin to know something', but due to the light of the soul itself.
