BINA [MOTHER-ING] Meditations





By: Rabbi Yitzchak Schwartz


Dear friends,

Happy Mother’s day!
Here is a piece that focuses on some of the sefirotic correlations or roots of mother-ing.

Blessings,
Yitzchak

AWAKEN YOUR INNER BINA\MOTHERING DRIVE TO;
1. Attract to yourself the Chochma/Wisdom Seed
2. Become impregnated and provide a womb vessil for this seed
3. Nurture the seed to maturity and beyond



1. ATTRACTING THE CHOCHMA


A. UNION OF CHOCHMA AND BINA
[BINA’S CONSTANT UNION WITH CHOCHMA]

AWAKEN YOUR INNER DRIVE TO SAVE EVERY THING [NOT TO LOSE A DROP]---TO SALVAGE AND MAKE USE OF ALL OF YOUR RESOURCES AND ALL OF YOUR WISDOM AND ALL OF YOUR EXPERIENCES [PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE]

B. E-K-Y-E [DIVINE NAME MEANING ‘I WILL BE’]
[BINA’S FUTURE ORIENTATION]

AWAKEN YOUR INNER DRIVE TO TURN ALL POTENTIAL WISDOM AND ABUNDANCE INTO NEW BIRTH-PRODUCTS AND NEW PACKAGES AND NEW FORMS OF EXPRESSIONS

C. BERIYAH [THE 2ND HIGHEST SUPERNAL WORLD]
[BINA’S CORRESPONDING WORLD---WHERE THE INTANGIBLE ELICITS THE TANGIBLE {yaish mi_ayin}]

AWAKEN YOUR INNER DRIVE TO TRANSFORM CHOCHMA’S INEFFABLE, ELUSIVE WISDOM INTO SOMETHING TANGIBLE, GRASPABLE AND CONVEYABLE

2. PROVIDING A VESSIL OR WOMB FOR THE CHOCHMA



A. TZURA [ FORM OR SHAPE ]
[BINA’S PROVIDING FORM , ALSO KNOWN AS TZIYUR/ILLUSTRATION OR TZEREI/BINA’S VOWEL POINT OR THE FINAL MEM BOX SHAPE ]

EXPERIENCE PLACING THE CHOCHMA/WISDOM SEED THAT YOU HAVE CAPTURED INTO A VESSIL OF SOME TYPE---PERHAPS AN ESSAY OR A BOOKLET OR A SONG OR A DRAWING OR JUST A SUMMARY LIST

B. SIMCHA [JOY]
[BINA’S INNER EXPERIENCE OF JOY IN WHAT IT POSSESSES]

EXPERIENCE GREAT JOY IN EVERYTHING THAT YOU HAVE, AS WELL AS EVERYTHING THAT YOU ARE IN THE PROCESS OF RECEIVING…..SEE IT ALL AS BEING WONDERFUL GIFTS FROM ‘THE ONE ABOVE’ ---AND ACKNOWLEDGE YOUR GRATEFULNESS

C. HALAIV MAVIN [THE HEART UNDERSTANDS]
[BINA’S UNIQUE PROPENSITY TO UNDERSTAND WITH THE HEART]

EXPERIENCE YOUR HEART……WHAT DO YOU FEEL INSIDE? DO YOU FULLY RESONATE WITH THE CHOCHMA [OR ANYTHING ELSE] THAT IS PRESENTED TO YOU……IF NOT, HOW CAN YOU? EXPERIENCE THAT YOUR HEART UNDERSTANDS [WHICH OFTENTIMES MAY NOT BE TRUE OF YOUR MIND]

3.NURTURE THE CHOCHMA/WISDOM SEED TO MATURITY AND BEYOND


A. CHERUT [FREEDOM]
[BINA’S CHARACTERISTIC OF CLOTHING AND PACKAGING THE CHOCHMA ‘FOETUS’ IN A WAY THAT PROTECTS IT FROM ANY HARM]

SEE TO IT THAT YOU PROVIDE A SAFE AND NURTURING ENVIRONMENT FOR THE TENDER GROWING SEED/FOETUS [OF CHOCHMA OR ANYTHING ELSE THAT YOU ARE TENDING TO], THEREBY FREEING UP THE CHOCHMA FROM ANY POSSIBLE DAMAGE

B. L’HAVIN DAVAR MITOCH DAVAR [TO UNDERSTAND ONE THING FROM ANOTHER]
[BINA’S POWER OF EXPANDING CHOCHMA’S EXPRESSION]

SEE TO IT THAT YOU EXPAND THE CHOCHMA OR ABUNDANCE THAT YOU ARE CARING FOR….DO THIS BY THE POWER OF ASSOCIATION---ASSOCIATING SIMILAR PIECES OF WISDOM…..KEEP EXPANDING WHAT YOU KNOW UNTIL YOU HAVE CAUSED THE ONE CHOCHMA SEED TO GROW TO BECOME AN OVERFLOWING TREASURE CHEST OF WISDOM


C. TSHUVA [THE RETURN TO ROOTS AND SELF]
[BINA’S INNER DRIVE TO SYNCHRONIZE THE WISDOM RECEIVED WITH IT’S SUPERNAL ROOTS]

SEE TO IT THAT THE WISDOM THAT YOU ARE NURTURING, IS ALLIGNED WITH G—D’S WISDOM AS WELL AS YOUR OWN---IF NOT, THAN REALLIGN….KEEP SYNCHRONIZING, REFINING AND ALLIGNING THIS WISDOM UNTIL IT IS STABLE ENOUGH TO STAND THE TEST OF TIME IN THIS WORLD AND ON INTO ‘THE WORLD TO COME’ [another Bina term]
