Aeter with R' Paltiel 8/24/09 Monday 4 Elul 5769 Ein Tet
Page Ein Tet. 3 lines from the bottom of the page.
We are explaining the term – moreh gadol – gilui shchinah.
We started by expaining kav – which has the ability to extend downwards – this descent is in an orderly, gradual way – first the yud (which touches the source) etc.
The shchinah however represents a gilui that is directly from above, without seder and hadraga – straight from above.
To explain this we looked at the word schinah – one meaning is shochenet – it dwells on the lower worlds. This expains how malchus is atik to briah.
The other meaning of shchinah is not in its relation to briah, but in its own existence. This will be looked at next.
In what way is malchus called schinah if it stays it its own abode? What is the principle aspect of malchus? That it connects the element of ohr ein sof with olamot. And these are two elements that are completely separate – there is no correspondence between them. And malchus is able to affect a joining between them.
The kohen in the temple would apply the blood to the alter at the corner. Malchus is called keren/corner. Just like a corner connects two wall – so too melucha is that which connects the king himself with the people. The emphasis is that the connection is with the king himself who is in a different realm from the people.
The principle of the corner is that there is no entity called a corner – it is made by the meeting of the two walls – this is like melucha that has nothing of its own – it receives form the other sphirot.
The two walls don't change to meet at the corner – but they end and meet.
This stopping is their own doing – not that one wall stops the other. They remain in full expression. What is the principle of a wall ending – a wall built for no reason will go without ending. A wall will purpose will end when that purpose is satisfied.
A corner represents reaching their purpose – fulfillment of their purpose – the epitome of its presence – this is where it can meet the other wall. This corner also adds strength to the two walls. When one reaches its purpose its own presence represents/demands that there is another wall.
This meeting says that there are two parts in the wall – what it is unto itself and what it is saying. A person refers to himself as “me” without a name, but he gets fully actualized when he gets a name that is used by others.
