“Review Session” p: 170


AyinBase with R' Paltiel Wednesday 21 MenachemAv 5772  

Page 171 - 2nd paragraph of the page (line starts, 've ha dugmah...') For text, see link top right of the blog. And picture below.

For there to be the revelation of a line from the initial point of inception, the initial light has to come back and shine.

This is the element of kiruv.

The light from above wants to shine. Not that it is solicited from below. Since it is initiated from above, there is kiruv – He comes close and relates directly.

The revelation of the line/kav from the trace/rishimu is just that, but because the infinite light from before the tzimzum is its origin, it has an element of ein sof / infinity. This is because it is initiate from the ein sof.

If it was just due to a lacking then the revelation would be limited to the student. But by contrast here the mentorship comes from the entire vision of the 'mentor'.

Before the tzimzum there could not have been hashpah/mentorship/revelation. At that level the master/mentor, cannot imagine not knowing. But as a result of the tzimzum, he can address the student on his level, while bringing from the truth as it is know to himself.

17th minute of the video. The mentor has to bring the material from the level of not knowing, to knowing...

This is like the difference between something you saw or that you heard. Hearing is a structured knowledge made up of accumulated knowledge. Sight is a grasp of the reality itself.

Even though the kav/line comes in a manner of measure and limitation, nevertheless it is also has an element of einsof/infinity.

You are the one who connects and unites them”, says the verse. In the kav is a sense of the origin/mentor. So hence 'you are the one the connects the dots'.

The structure is described as a way to communicate the significance.
