“First Encounter” p153


“Human speech is created by the human spirit.  He is not a parrot.  It is an external expression of his inner life.  It is not sounds, it is message.”  
AYIN BASE - REBBE RASHAB - with R’ PALTIEL - 5778
P 153 (of the pamphlet) at lower third of the page.  Line starts, “u’m’utah…” [P112 of the book]

What do you encounter first?  At best, the sky.  And he perceives it via his perspective.  His initial perception does not lead him to the Creator. 

The Creator concept comes not from his perception or experience, but from his own initial reality.  This make is vulnerable to the accusation of ‘prove it’. 

If we are not stupid and stubborn we say, ‘yes, i don’t know where the world comes from.  This is what Avraham avinu introduced to the world.  There is a Creator that you don’t see. 

The One who made you is with you all the time.  You are not floating in nothingness. 

Chassidus addresses this point.  It says: you have a Godly quality in yourself.  This is the most precious - this makes you be.  

There is knowledge that is beyond proof.  And if you dig deep enough you will know what is His will.  You have to keep it pure.  Your soul will identify the world.  You are not abandoned.  

You are here for His purposes.

And yet, I, that am a soul presence, reach out into the world… I reach into the world to elevate it.
