“That being said, ‘how do we relate to God?!’  Not via our faculties, but rather by acknowledging that reality is real, originating in a true presence.  The ‘nothingness’ of the sky is an intended presence.

The infinity has no beginning.

A starting point indicates a catalyst, and there is no trigger for essence.  Essence is beyond definition or cause.

There is no way to define what essence seeks to accomplish.  It is eternal - it has no end. 

Its existence is not defined by the fact that it exists. 

From a worldly perspective it cannot be explained or described.

Will is different from the other faculties.  It has no ‘self-identity’.  

Will brings with it an essential quality.  It does not change situationally.  

‘Godly’ does not mean a quality.  it means a primary presence, that needs not definition or prior source. 

That being said, ‘how do we relate to God?!’  Not via our faculties, but rather by acknowledging that reality is real, originating in a true presence.  The ‘nothingness’ of the sky is an intended presence.  

This is how we live.  We take it for granted.  Because it is real.  

Life is so dear to us since it represents the infinity - it has no beginning and no end.

We are looking at how the people are connected to Godliness. 

Awe is easier to attain than love.  It is directly attained.  Love is also inherent, but to reveal it one needs to meditate on Godliness.  

Awe reflects the inherent connection. 

Awe does not really need comprehension - it comes from the essential faculty of the soul - from the soul’s nullification to truth!

Awe is a direct touch of the soul.

This awe is a gift from above. 

The aim of the awesome presence is to give you a sense of its greatness.  Not to overwhelm you, but rather seeking to connect with you!

Essence is both internal and universal.

All else is functional.  Essence is the reality itself. 

To have a sense of it, think of the center of balance - the center of gravity - this is a metaphor. 

It is one point, but it is everything in terms of its effect. 

There cannot be true love for life without love of God.  

And beyond this is the level of one reality [kol me’odecha].  The entire world and all aspects is Him.  

Not to say ‘everything is nullified’ but rather ‘there are important things, but they all revolve around the one pivot - the one center of gravity’!

We are looking at the effect of delight/oneg on will/ratzon.

Will is a surrounding faculty and does not become imbued in the lower faculties.  It remains above - it does not get affected.  

Yet we see that, seemingly due to the breakthroughs of the mind the will can become aroused.  

Actually this is affected by the delight/oneg behind the working of the sechel/mind.

Will is a surrounding faculty.  Seemingly it can become more enlivened.  This is due to the one/delight in the mind.

Will and delight are both surrounding faculties, representative of the soul, but in 2 different ways.

Delight/oneg is internal.  Ratzon/will is external and has effect on the world…

There relationship between mind/sechel and ratzon differs from that between mind/sechel and one/delight.

Oneg/delight is the basis of the mind/sechel.

Notes from Moshe Silver:

The main difference between עונג and רצון.

רצון
is a force that drives prods one to do the will of the creator. Forcing him to go out of himself, connecting to the unlimited powers of above. עונג is a sense of knowing, feeling that this act which was done this intelectual idea that he has is correct because It is correct in the way creator wanted it to be. Giving him a great sense of satisfaction. A feeling of comfort of being one with the creator a connection between the person and its source.
Essentially רצון expresses a drive, עונג expresses a satisfaction. חכמה is sourced in עונג because it is עונג that senses the feeling of the truth חכמה -  intelect has no feeling it is עונג ,that gives one the feeling of truth, a sense of unity with the will of his creator. Giving the person a feeling of understanding that he reached the want of hashem. Ultimately, the feeling of being one with Hashem gives him the feeling that the intelect is correct.

עונג is the נשמה of חכמה

Will/ratzon is not affected by contact with the limbs.  The limbs and faculties are affected.

Will does not have a light and vessel [ohr v’keili] relationship with what it affects. 

In the ‘light in vessel’ model there is reciprocity that is not seen in the influence by the will/ratzon on the limbs and faculties.

Will grasps the limb.  The limb does not affect the will.  It is a ‘one-way street’. 

However, it may seem like there is an increase or decrease in the ratzon/will effected by the conscious faculties.

Will/ratzon is is a super faculty - above everything - and yet it effects everything.  This is what enables a man to stand, and walk.

Will/ratzon does come forth and impact the faculties.  So what do we mean that it stays aloof?  It means to say it is not unified [bechinat hitchabrut] like the way light and vessel [ohr v’keili] unified.

The ratzon/will grasps and affects the faculties, but the faculties do not have a reciprocal effect on the will.

Will can be obscured by virtue of being sunk into the world.  Due to having sought out worldly experiences.

Ratzon/will is different from the faculties that are dressed in limbs and vessels.

The will forces its way in… it announces its agenda.  Man stands due to his spirit, not due to his 2 legs.

We stand because, ‘we want to stand’.  We stand because we have the sky holding us up.  We are not held up by the earth. 

This is called an essential truth.  This is how ratzon/will functions.

Ratzon/will is always superior - it is unable to be contained in a vessel. 

It is present, and makes the essence presence, but it is there in the manner of ‘surrounding/makif’.

Mind/sechel needs to be nurtured - it does not come by itself.  Either the will pushes it to revelation or through labor from below [purifying the vessels] it settles into consciousness.

When work is done with the vessel a new functioning level of mind/sechel is revealed.

The mind/sechel that the ratzon/will delivers is of a different level of purity.
