If you have a breakthrough in your learning, focus on the new terrain, not on any sense of accomplishment.  

This is refinement of the vessels.  There is no other agenda.

The revelation of the soul can only manifest in a place that is sensitive to it.

Oneg/pleasure and ratzon/will are part of the soul itself.  

The will is in constant fulfillment… what is it running to do?  It goes to do it’s mission.  It does this not based on any lack. 

There is a divine reality.  And there is nothing more abundant than this.  The will has this divine element and runs to do.

Who compels God to create the world?  No-one.  He made a real world and not due to any lack.  Or any push factor.  

If something is done out of duress, it is limited.  God what not ‘pushed’ into making the world, and thus it is a full creation.  

Ratzon/will is a divine gift.  It is a drive to accomplish without any particular need.

The will directs the limbs to move and then they move on their own.

The will is needed even though the limb can ‘move on its own’.  

Your ability to relate to a place beyond your own location is a divine gift.

Only the ratzon/will can initiate movement - force the limb to move.

For the limb to move out of its place, the will is necessary.  The limb only knows its own place.

Ratzon/will is what initiates movement of the body and limbs.

Why is the hand’s own ability to move sufficient?  Why does it not move by itself?

This is because it is limited.  By contrast, the will/ratzon knows of the full reality.  All places are real to it.  It perceives the entire reality that God created.  

A human being senses he is part of a huge reality. 

The will says, ‘I am where I want to be.’

We are everywhere.  We can live anywhere.  

God made ‘heaven and earth’.  Heaven is mentioned first.  The heaven facilitates the entire earth.

Movement is initiate by will/ratzon.  Ratzon/will is like the supreme ruler - nothing happens without its consent.

Man comes to the world not to benefit from it, but to rule it - to introduce a new spirit to the world. 

We use this as a metaphor - a way to see clearly the reality we continually live with.  

The world is a divine creation.  It is something from nothing [yesh mi ein].

This is reflected in the special gift to man - that the entire world is in his mind - you see the world as your domain. 

Ratzon/will is a superior faculty and contains all the lower elements that will later be revealed.

If the emotions are receptive, then mind can have an effect.

If the emotions are full of self-identity then they are not affected.

Mind has a presence of essence.  Even though it it ‘mind’.  This is because it is a representation of the soul itself.  Real mind/sechel is that which comes from a living soul.  It has its own fundamental truth.

Mind/mind is the purest representation of the soul in the body. 

Sechel/intelligence is basic - a soul foundation.  

And this sechel/intellgence can confront the emotions even when they are in full expression.  The sechel imports its view to the emotions - it ‘pulls the rug out from under their feet’.

Mind affects everything by involvement.  Will/ratzon is beyond ‘getting involved’.  

The first thing to know is that we are in a created world.  Not just a world.  There is a creator.  And this is the basis.  

One who works hard arrives at a mind/sechel perspective.  He seek the meaningful.  He is not drawn after emotions and appetites. 

The light of sechel/mind controls the fervor of the emotions.  

Mind has an essential quality.  It seeks truth beyond preference.

The emotions are affected when they are not too much into their own thing.

The mind imparts sense to the emotions - a sense of proportion and propriety is imparted - by discussion and negotiation.

Or this can happen automatically - directly.  This happens by the inner light of the mind - the Godly light of the soul. 

Mochin/mind is based on bitul/humility. 

The mind sees not ‘what the creation does for me’, but rather, ‘the Godly presence in all of creation’.  

It presents a truth that cannot be ignored.  You cannot look away.  It presents a truth that precedes their own existence. 

The mind recognizes the emotions and the emotions recognize the mind…!

Mind/mochin transmits something directly to the emotions.  It gives them bitul/humility.

This relates the emotions to the divine.

This can happen when the emotions are not insistent on their own expression.

Emotions say, “whatever is of interest, I’m into it.”  Mind says, “what am I here for?  What’s the right way to proceed?  Let me go for that.”  And the mind communicates with the emotions.  And the emotions get it.  

It is a principle that one has respect for something greater… and the emotions have this for the input of the mind.

The impact is made my the inner mind [pnimiut hamochin] which says, ‘world is not a primary reality and does not fulfill its purpose without the divine process within it’.

There is a level where the emotions want to hear what mind/mochin has to say.

They are different from mind, but are open to the input from outside - to mindfulness.

Sechel/mind does manifest as a faculty.  But it is a ‘soul-type’ faculty.  How can it be present in a body?  This is because it is vested in the brain/moach, which is fine enough to receive it.

The will/ratzon presents itself - it doesn’t reformulate itself.

It comes from essence, which is beyond function.  It is true unto itself - an absolute truth.  This is the Godly presence in the world. 

God provides for this essence.  The world cannot provide for level.  

Essence cannot be presented in words.  It can only be alluded to.

Ratzon/will does not function in a sequential, graduated manner.  It is immediate.

It reveals the nefesh/soul. 

Why should the soul reveal itself?  An essence is automatically everywhere.  

It claims everything for itself everything it touches - all that is given to it.  This is like your ownership extending throughout your home - from the front door to the furthest corner of the attic.

 The soul is a super presence in the world.  It doesn’t ask for permission.  It says I am here.  It is this soul power that enables true Jewish leaders to face down any opposition.  

Will/ratzon is a very important aspect of a person - regarding the world and regarding himself.

Ratzon/will does not function in a sequential, graduated manner.  It is immediate.

By contrast the inner faculties are intentional and sequential.  they are contained within vessels.  The vessels impose limit and definition.

We are using mind/sechel as the example for this.  Thought has to be with focus and without distraction to be productive.

An essential faculty represents an essence.  Will/ratzon is an essential faculty.  It reflects reality.

With maturity the will is hidden by the mind and emotions.  

The more the revealed faculties are revealed, the more the essential faculties are hidden.
