We talked about how to deal with intermediate states [klipat nogah].
One way is to make a vow, which is a safeguard - a boundary you will not cross.Although artificial they are very effective.
It allows you to connect to a higher level of wisdom.You needed protection when you see two sides - the holy and the other side…
When you have the higher perspective, it is all good.
We see the world and it appears to exist on its own basis - on it’s own resources… as if ‘self-created’…!The truth is one must not lose sight of the real vitality that is in the world.
It is our privilege and duty to see the Godly element - the Godly life of and in the world.
You make a blessing before eating, since you acknowledge that He made it to sustain us.

Light is a representation of the real thing - of essence.A man fills his whole home.You exist beyond your physical presence.

Evil can be transformed into good.Even though it is a physical pleasure it becomes a Godly pleasure.
An example of this is the physical pleasure of eating on Shabbat.
The intent can transform the pleasure into the level of holiness.This is because klippa is also a divine creation… and it is only by seeking the physical that it becomes more coarse…

Sight does not force itself on you.It presents itself to you without an imposition.This is like chochmah - wisdom - it is omnipresent - it cannot be concealed - you view the essence of the thing.
Sechel is based on the principle of truth.Truth is exclusively a Godly phenomenon.
And the view of chochmah, has within it the 10 sphirot - it too is a Godly creation and thus has a full presence.It did not arise inadvertently.

Cause and effect deals with the reflection/ha-arah, and not the essence.
Essence does not relate to hishtalshalus - gradual development, but ha-arah does.
You can see the pure truth without being affected by it.It is not worldly.It is beyond definition.The world does not have pure truth - it is a creation.It is there because of the Creator.When you see the world, you see the will of the Creator.

How does wisdom/chochmah know without dealing with definitions?It is like sight - it sees the object directly and doesn’t work in a defined procedural way…
Wisdom/chochmah gets the essence of a thing.
With his mind’s eye he sees the truth of the thing - as it is unto itself.
Seeing the thing, is after the fact.Seeing the essence is seeing the truth of the thing.
And each thing and material has a ‘truth element’ - down to the lowest physical level.

The student strives to come close to what his mentor has told him.
He seeks the ratzon/will element behind what he is being taught… he goes for the ‘why’ behind what he was told… he goes for the source… not to know it, but to be it.
And due to this he becomes changed and refined.This is the real effect of the ‘cause’.The student’s personality becomes changed and refined.

The mentor gives a reflection of his inner reality.this is the key to open the mind of the recipient and he says, ‘I want to go for the light’.[This is different from wanting to get away from the darkness].
The mentor gives a reduced aspect of the essence of the light.

The light is a revelation of the essence, but it is not the essence.
‘Cause and effect’ are levels with a closer relationship - they understand each other.The cause is not at the level of ‘essence’, for if it was it would stay at its own level…
The student understands his mentor.He ‘gets what he’s shown’ - this is an external view.Then there’s the internalization and goes deeper than the initial presentation.With focus and labor he delves into the sechel that is being taught to him.
The effort is to activate the faculty from its source, not its functional level.This is toiling to go beyond the presentation to the origin of what is being presented.He approaches the level of his mentor…
Then the student approaches the internal reality.This is the rising up of the effect/student to the cause/mentor.

What is the meaning of ‘luminary’ to us?What does it matter if you have light or the luminary?
The human being is very real.He is the center of the world - he is ‘what the world is about’.His presence is primary, but his behavior is very significant too…
This is like the comparison between water and wine… there is no joy like the ‘water libation’, yet it has no taste and no color…!Water represents chochmah/wisdom.And wine represents binah/understanding…
A luminary is a source… a Godly reality itself… like a living spring of water…
Light is a revelation from the luminary.It is not just a functional element.

The mentor gives the recipient mind/sechel.But he does not give him the essence.This cannot be disseminated.Rather he gives him a reflection - the effect - the significance…
The essence cannot participate in a ‘cause and effect system’ - it is unto itself…
Is light and luminary not ‘cause and effect’?No.Light is the luminary itself, just at a different level.
Light is a revelation of the luminary, not an effect of the luminary.
The luminary is an essence.The nature of an essence it that it effects the whole environment…thus the light spreads in the entire environment… it is a revelation of the essence.

You have a sense of reality, beyond experience.You walk on a finite world and it feels infinite.you have the confidence of the Maker.This is the firmness of the earth under your feet.
This foundational element is the basis for our sechel.the mentor/mashpia knows his sechel/mind from that level of reality.
This cannot be communicated to the student.He is in touch with his own reality.He gives the student a reflection of the essence of his sechel.
Ultimately the student also has this and the mashpia alerts him to it.
God gives vitality to everything.But the student is not aware of it.He may be so oblivious to it that he can take action that is contrary to the Giver of his own soul.He may think that he depends on the world and not on the Maker of the world…

The mentor/mashpia not only knows the material, he lives with it.He went to the source of the sechel/mind and then that source imbued itself within him.
Without his mentor, the student has no access to the master’s perspective.
The mentor knows the subject at the reality level.At the level that precedes mind/sechel.
He can give the student a reflection/ha-arah of this reality.
Mind is ultimately talking about something real to the soul.It is not talking of ‘something I know’ but rather ‘something I am within’.
