Aeter with R' Paltiel 8/5/09 Wednesday 15 Menachem Av 5769 Pay Dalet
Page pay dalet. 12th from the top – starts “tzorech”.
General topic: the effect of learning torah before prayer. Since the nefesh habahamit has been given extra power torah is needed. It comes from above. And bypasses your personal situation.
Thus the gemara says if someone learns torah not for its own sake – he should still do it since the “source” will come through independent of the motive. This is why torah has phenomenal ability.
Torah is independent of the person and pnimius hatorah is even more pure/removed of world effect/orientation.
Amitis haatzmus is not understandable from world. So how does one speak of it? Occasionally the matter that one is learning leads there.
Atzmus can be in mitzraim and not be effected by it and not be usurped
Our contact is exclusively with world, thus we describe G-dliness from a perspective of worldliness. This is our approach to G-dliness – we know the world and we know that G-d makes the world.
Even the level of sovev is in relation to world.
Destruction in the world is not a crime against the world it is against the king.
Regardless of how it is seen on the world level, a group functions “under G-d” as the US constitution indicates and the Rebbe was fond of mentioning.
The aspect of atzmus is not comprehensible to us at all because it is concealed and not known to us. Nothing in our experience exposes us to atzmus. Sovev and memale are levels of elokus not how it is to itself but in relation to world.
Atzmus is not for the purpose of creation. The fact that hashem creates worlds does not describe who he is – this is not the ikar of elokus. To understand something that is true unto itself, not by virtue of its function, is impossible, but one can relate to it.
