“Review Session – You Make my Questions Disappear” p: 170

Page 170 - 2nd paragraph of the page (line starts, 've ha dugmah...') For text, see link top right of the blog. And picture below.

Last night we looked at how the kav/line affects unity of all the particulars. It does this based on the infinity that is in the line.

The student asks a question because it seems like there is a contradiction and the mentor/master takes him to the level (or at least addresses him from the level) where there is no contraction.

How does the mentor create this unity. Think of the furniture in your house. There needs to be sufficient space for each piece. Each one has a function/place/aesthetic of its own. But the entire space is your home. In the sense that it is your home, these 2 chairs are actually standing on the same spot.

On the lower level the room creates unity, but on a higher level it is the owner that creates the unity.

A human being needs a chair and a table. And for this 2 spaces are needed. But as a human being you don't provide 2 spaces – it is one reality.

The mentor helps the mentee, develop proper vessels, but he also shows how they are all sourced in one unity.

This is an important point – in raising a child he has to know it is not appearances that are of concern, but rather how he is unto himself that is of concern.

We are looking at how ein sof/infinity includes all details/particulars...
