“Angels, Animals & Human Beings” p:72(18)

AyinBase / Ayin Beis with R' Paltiel, 13 Tevet 5775 


Page 72(18)

At top of the page – (line begins: 'leehiyot...') For text see below.

The light always remains connected to its source – to essence. The levels of essential light are expressed by the three-fold repetition of the word 'holy/kadosh'.

Life is constant. But there is a level of life that is put into the body, and this life needs to be maintained. In this context we say, 'I eat so I will live' – this is a combination of body and soul. This is the body experiencing life at its level.

The light of the soul and the soul itself does not know there is such a thing as eating.

But where this light comes to the level of 'oh, I have to eat to live', that is only where there is the situation of 'life/light in a vessel'.

Yet the 'light' element remains, even though one is conforming to the physical requirement of needing food... So even though the body is involved, life remains an 'ohr/light'. It is light dressed in a vessel.


The light 'understands' the vessel, and 'acts appropriately' for the vessel.


The vessel is refined by the light that comes into it...

So the light becomes like the vessel and the vessel becomes like the light...

The reason the vessel can accept the light, and the hand can accept the direction of the mind, and develop a symbiosis between mind and hand (light and vessel) is due to the fact that it is one soul that is dressed in the sechel and the hand... life itself is dressed in both... the soul element is in mind and hand...
