HaShem's way of showing His Love and Kindness

 

Dear Chaverim, I would like to share a holy revelation, HaShem's way of showing His Love and Kindness is unlimited, out of the ordinary, secret, without informing us of the delivery date and the expected date of "receiving" and through Tzaddikim anything can happen. B”H!

I prayed and asked HaShem deeply that I needed to get the Rebbe's dollar, Menachem Mendel Schneerson, of blessed memory, many years have passed and my faith has not diminished, I believed in receiving the Rebbe's holy dollar, I knew I would be getting it, and now I received.

Nobody needs to agree with me but this story is part of “My mouth will recount Your righteousness… [Psalms 71:15], because the experience was mine and how it happened was real and beautiful – We cannot lose our Faith never, this you must to keep in mind and in your heart! In this old video at the end Rebbe looked at my soul and said me; this dollar is your! (although I understand that this video was recorded many years ago and there gather people from that time, and for the entire Jewish community), but HaShem is not limited to time and space, as well as Rebbe already KNEW that there would be virtual currency in the future, Tzaddik already knew about me and my sincere request, and the Rebbe himself gave me brachot in this dollar, incredible that this video is for me, and finally, everything will change for the better in my life and as promised, my contribution to the Jewish Community to be continued.

 

Keep the Faith

 

Thank G-d, Blessed be He!

 

Shalom,

The Tzaddik and his holy teachings

 

For the grace of the L-rd, my maggid said to me "do this" - that is, these posts (this one and next ones “inspired by…”) which done by deep inspiration, sounds simple yet someone can benefit from taking it to your heart. So be it, G-d willing. Amen!

For the Holy of Holies, read:

"Avinu Malkenu, our Father, our King: we have no king other than You. Our Father, our King, acts for Your sake and has mercy on us" Heal us, save Israel and the whole world from this disease covid 19. Heal us L-rd and we will be healed. Amen. Attributing to Rabbi Akiva.

The Way of Kavanot – Kabbalah in Practice, 1

 

By R. Ariel B. Tzadok.

Kavanah is a word used in Kabbalah to describe mental focus. Kavanot are the mental constructs formed in the mind with the intent to project these constructs into the higher and collective realms of thought and consciousness.

 

We are taught, where one thinks is where one is at. Therefore, one who thinks thoughts of holiness, and projects those thoughts of holiness is actually creating that holiness through the ways and means of psychic influence.

 

Mental constructs can take form in the theoretic mind. Yet, such constructs lack the energy and soul that would give them the powers of influence. In Kabbalah the diagram of the Sefirotic Tree of Life reveals to us the true reflection of our inner human selves. We are composite beings made of up physical matter, emotional energy, mental thought, and psychic attachments. Only when the Sefirotic Tree is complete in all its parts will one have the necessary psychic power and emotional drive to project one’s kavanot with sufficient force of influence.

 

The purification of the internal and individual Sefirotic Tree takes its forms with the language of Hebrew and the religion of Judaism, for it was within these that the system was born and raised.

 

One cannot properly learn the system outside of its original context. Whereas at the same time that one does need to practice what the system teaches, one does not necessarily have to embrace the Hebrew language or the religion of Judaism. Judaism is a form and a structure for the Tree of Life for the Jewish people. Jews have no other archetypal ladder of ascent other than Judaism. For Jews, Judaism is their one and only kavanah. Any other path simply will not fit the Jew similar to a hand trying on a glove not made for it.

 

When we embrace the internal Sefirotic Tree of Life, we do so from the top down, not from the bottom up. We begin in the beginning, end in the end, and cycle the circle all over again neverendingly.

 

In the end, we recognize the importance and value of proper righteous behavior and seek to live accordingly. Psychic energy from the highest realms is always reflected in the lowest of realms. Therefore, one’s behaviors matter very much. One will never be able to receive, channel or reflect the higher dimensional planes of psychic energy and consciousness all the while that one’s behavior and body are not fitting receptacles.

 

As a religion Judaism provides a full body of righteous behaviors. The Jew who performs these properly prepares the body. However, a properly prepared body does not make the individual soul in that body to be anywhere else other than in the proper place to receive the higher sefirot. It does not give one access to those sefirot automatically. Rituals have their vital purpose, but energetic righteousness is how psychic energy flows.

 

Now, to the top. We begin with Nothing. For from Nothing we come, and to Nothing we return. But this Nothing is the very essence of and reality of every something that exists.

 

The original Nothing is not a no-thing as we may think of it with our limited human intelligence. The original Nothing is what we call in Hebrew the Ayn Sof. Literally, this means, “without end,” and is the ancient way to refer to what today we call Infinity.

 

While we can entertain the topic of infinity, it is still a concept beyond grasp of human intelligence. The only way to grasp anything about the original Ayn Sof Nothing is to experience it. But this experience is above thought and recognition. Therefore, we speak of the experience of the Ayn Sof as a “feeling,” one that is far removed and detached from emotion.

 

This feeling may well be described by using a metaphor taken from a source of fiction (science fiction). In the famous movie series, Star Wars, there exists the concept of The Force. Although the description of what the Force is, as described in the movie, does not coincide with the truths of the Kabbalah, the mention of how the Force is felt, and how it flows through one is very accurate.

 

We take this feeling of Force and project it into the mental constructs of the Sefirot of the Tree of Life, in their many interactions, and subdivisions. These mental constructs take on a highly metaphorical language of their own. This is necessary so as to give form in the mind for the flow of this Force.

 

In Hebrew, this Force is called Shefa, radiance. We can also call it Kedusha, holiness. So, when we speak of holiness, we are not speaking about anything religious, but rather something energetic. One cannot draw close to God without being holy. This means that one cannot draw near to the Infinite unless one is properly energetically aligned to do so.

 

Words by themselves do not always enable one to understand their proper intent. Therefore, rather than give mere words, I instead have given definitions and examples in order to enable one to properly understand them, or better to say, to feel It!

 

Kavanot are vital mental constructs that are the vehicles for the Shefa-Kedusha, which channel the Infinite into the finite. This is no mere intellectual exercise, or spiritual entertainment. This is the way and means of psychic influence, the likes of which, directs, influences, builds and destroys worlds.

 

I will pause here. We will continue our discussion about this shortly. For now, pause, contemplate these matters in your thoughts. Feel them inside your psyche (with and without emotions). Cultivate insight and invite in revelation. See what comes to you from the Infinite, however great or small it may be.

 

Use the Name YHWH as your guide. Do what little you know, and do not underestimate the power of the Infinite to make use of your finite self. We will continue shortly.

[This is a repost, basically almost a year ago Rabbi Pinto answered several general questions including the current situation in the world, and I felt that I should post his shiurim again, this is urgent and important to us as we will need to fortify our emunah in HaShem and through Tzaddik, to get knowledge to achieve greater wisdom, and to do better and better what needs to be done. – editor of Journal Mitzvah]

 

Question 1

Date: 03.24.2020

Topic: Repentance

 

Dear Rabbi, How does one know when a decree is from heaven or the result of man's actions?

 

And is there a difference in how each form of decree is annulled?

 

Answer 1

 

To understand the difference in dealing with each form of decree, one must understand the interaction between the spiritual and physical in initiation. There are times when the flow of energy and inspiration descends from heaven, termed Itareruta Dil'ela, and others when it comes through human initiation, termed Itareruta Di'letata.

 

Itareruta Di'lela is identifiable when things flow easily and success comes with relatively little effort.Light is shone onto the earth from above, bringing with it spiritual inspiration, repentance and sanctity. Shabbat, which is a state of holiness that decends upon the world, is an example of Itareruta Di'lela.

 

 

Itareruta Di'lerata is when human initiation takes place; man draws down the heavenly lights by his doing. All Jewish holidays, in contrast to Shabbat, require human initiation to draw down the spiritual light. One must condition themselves to receive the light of the holidays by studying the laws and deeper meaning of the holidays.

 

Similarly, in the paths of repentance, there are times when one must initiate repentance on their own and draw down heavenly light downward.Their good actions are uplifted to Hashem. This is the repentance that Hashem demanded from Yeravam Ben Nevat, who had sinned gravely for many years. Hashem wished that Yeravam would initiate his repentance on his own and not wait for Hashem to ignite the feeling in his heart. Hashem promised that He would assist Yeravam thereafter to elevated him to lofty levels of holiness.

 

In recent years, society has deteriorated on many fronts. Yes, there is Torah abound, large Yeshivot (study halls) with thousands of students and synagogues at nearly every corner of the world.

 

With so much goodness and Torah awareness abound, it comes at a great surprise that a moral rift exists in many supposedly observant and knowledgeable individuals; one can't help but notice the incoherence of peoples beliefs and actions. How can Torah values exist alongside corrupt values?

 

While this only describes a portion of the population, every person must view themselves- on some level or another- implicated in the general defilement of values and morals present throughout society.

 

The Sages teach that when one performs a positive action or thinks a positive thought, they are indirectly influencing another Jewish soul for the good. That soul could be near or afar. On the other hand, negative thoughts and actions influence Jewish souls around the world for the worse.

 

Every action, good or evil, influences the entire creation, humankind, animals and inanimate objects. Within man is contained the primary traits of every animal; man draws energy from every animal and influences them in return. When we act accordingly, we influence every animal for the good, and converse is valid when we act inappropriately.

 

The Talmud records an anecdote of Rabbi Zeira who once entered the study hall Beth Hamidrash (study hall) and announced that a certain bird, that until then had been kosher, was no longer fit to be consumed. By some means, Rabbi Zeira had discovered that the bird had developed predatory traits and henceforth it took on the status of an unkosher species. How did this bird come to change its nature, one might ask? Simply, as the general population began to deteriorate their ways, they influenced the bird to alter its nature, and henceforth qualify as an unkosher species.

 

This notion is the basis of the practice of regularly reading Perek Shira (in the Shuva Israel community it is read every Sunday). Perek Shira is a compendium of the songs of praise every creature and plant praises Hashem on a daily basis. When we recite Perek Shira, we empower the entire creation.

 

On the same note, when one performs good deeds and behaves according to the ethics and morals of the Torah, they uplift the entire creation. Behaving inappropriately, in the other hand, diminishes the goodness, sanctity and life-force of the entire creation.

 

In regard to the current pandemic, its source is not from heaven. Rather, it is the result of the deterioration of human values. It's remedy, therefore, will only come into being when matters are rectified. When humankind determines the source of the pandemic, that is, the spiritual, moral and ethical corruption that created the situation, the resulting rectification and repentance will draw the remedy from heaven through Hashem's grace.

 

It is never good to take on the role of prosecutor of the masses, but the evil that takes place between man and fellow is blatant. Slander, gossip, blackmail, corruption and similar misdeeds are the spiritual source of this great pandemic. Refraining from these and rectifying past errors is the only manner in which to draw down mercy from heaven to redeem us from this global crisis.

 

We shouldn't place ourselves in a comfort zone, falsely assuring ourselves that regardless of the severity of the situation, at some point in time a remedy will be found and the situation will resolve itself on its own. The remedy to our situation rests in our hands, in our dedication to altering our ways; when we initiate repentance, rectification and improvement in our conduct, Hashem will grace us with the remedy and resolution to this global crisis.
