“ha-chochmah...”) For text, click: Here

The
one who is mighty in chochmah brings out from wisdom from areas where
it is deeply concealed.
How
can he find sechel/mind everywhere? It seems to imply sechel is
everywhere... the mighty one digs in and finds it... This is like
what the Arizal says, 'in everything there is vitality' - even in
dust of the earth.
This
chayus/vitality is 'what makes it live' – 'what makes it be'. The
one who is mighty in wisdom (gibor bechochmah) recognizes there is
nothing, but for the Godly force that creates everything... and if it
is God's creation, then there is a significance to its being.
This
is why the Baal Shem says, there is divine providence in everything.
The
world has become blinded by the physical presence. The physical is
seen as the limit of existence. As the basis. But the physical is a
Godly creation. It is real.
You
want to be. The reason you want to be is because God wants you to
be. This vitality can be concealment by external layers – the
gibor/mighty one breaks through to the source of life.
He
brings out the concealed thing specifically. Till nothing remains
obscured from him.
The
soul is in the body. It is an anomoly.
The
soul was blown into the body.
This
brings out something that is beyond anything it stands for – this
is the essence.
If
you face a wall you cannot go through it. This is true if your
movement is based on 'things being accessible.' But the mighty one
does not reach things because 'they are accessible' but because the
destination 'is there'.
And
there is an indestructible point in the soul that can relate to
anything – even the body!
The
essence of the soul itself is correlated with the body and this talks
to the body.
The
truth of sechel/mind in the soul is that, 'it is impossible not to
be...'
