Questions and
comments:
We
emphasized 2 words this week.
“The
reason for the exchange of light is due to the rav/master” - The
first word is “rav/master”. His presence enables the exchange.
He is the one that gives the students as sense of the level of
simplicity/pshitut/inherent content.
There
is a fundamental difference between 'developing something from
below', in contrast to getting something from above. In this world
we perceive things as physical.
The
rav has the whole concept from its source. Above function.
The
Torah tells us to develop/conquer the earth. The human being has
ownership. Part of that mission is movement. The rav/master goes to
the source of things. He goes to the mission itself.
The
second word we focused on is “mekablim/recipients” in place of
the usual use of the word talmid/student.
To
receive something must be given. To give something it needs to have
borders. The mekabel receives something defined. You cannot give
something on the level of simplicity...
We
are looking at something that is inexplicable. We are saying that
the element from the student can be exchanged due to the fact that is
has the master's quality of simplicity... but then we come up with
the question: why call it exchange if it is simple...? The answer is
that it is not of the level of total simplicity.
The
rav/master is telling you how things are from God's perspective, and
the student/recipient is seeing how that truth reflects itself in the
world.
