Spreading Beyond the Borders – Balloon Analogy 0:04

Is that because the מעלה of the real thing of the מלכות, to spread out beyond the borders, so when you're spreading out beyond the borders down here, past מלכות of עשיה, so then there's a spread beyond the borders upstairs also. Right. From מלכות after the after the צמצום to the עצמות before the צמצום. Right. You're spreading both borders. Right, it goes both ways. It's like a balloon, when you're blowing it up both sides get bigger.

Right. אדרבה, וסוף כל סוף משם נעשה סובב דווקא כנ״ל, כמו שנאמר אני אני הוא ממש, ועצמות אין סוף הוא הסובב, and the עצמות אין סוף is the actual סובב on the whole thing בדווקא. וזהו אמיתת הכוונה בהתבוננות בפרט כנ״ל. And that's the real אמיתיות in the כוונות בהתבוננות בפרט כנ״ל. The real אמיתיות of כוונה is that דווקא through that, you see how the אייבערשטער is ממש here.

וגם שלפי החשבון בפרטי השתלשלות רחוק מאוד מאוד מראש לסוף. It looks very far. אבל באמת קרוב מאוד בלי הפסק, it's really totally close without no הפסק at all והסתר כלל, באמצע.

The Middle is Nothing – Transparency Explained 1:35

There's really all this stuff in the middle is like nothing, is like the phone line between us, even though it's a very big phone line, but you can totally discount it. We don't think about the phone line.

I'm talking to you like you're ממש here. Right. Because it's transparent. Right. So the whole thing of the השתלשלות, the whole connections in the middle with all the פרטים and this goes into that, and that goes into this, and this goes into that, and that goes to this, but really it's all transparent and is totally discounted. Right.

אבל באמת קרוב מאוד בלי הפסק והסתר כלל באמצע, כמו שנאמר אני אני הוא, it's ממש me. I am right here I'm right here with you.

ומבלעדיי באמצע איז... and beside me in the middle there's nothing. It means I am the at the beginning of the thing, I'm at the end of the thing, and besides me there's nothing else, it means all the middle is not there.

וכמו שנאמר כי אלוקים עשה את האדם, קדמאה, מראש ועד סוף יושר, the אייבערשטער made א״ק

totally straight מראשו לסופו. The עסק of א״ק is one straight line, goes, poof, straight from there to here. Right. ומסתיים בסוף עשיה all the way down to here בבחינת יושר, שהוא אחד כולו לגמרי מראשו לסופו.

That's the way it is. And you have to take it simply as ממש the אייבערשטער is here.

God is Here – Forgetting Contemplation 3:17

To the point that you can even forget the התבוננות.

Like what the רבי said, על דעת התינוק הזה. Right. And and the thing is, like so so people say so so fine, so what do you need all of this התבוננות for? What do you need all this התבוננות for? Right. Why all the complications? Yeah, I mean why don't you do like the guy you know, these all these stories, the בעל שם טוב, he saw this was a simple Jew and he also took a whistle and stuff like that, you know.

Right. You say yeah, if you could actually believe it ממש like a baby that the אייבערשטער is ממש here, then it'll be fine. Right. But the problem is not really like that. He says why?

Because המה ביקשו חשבונות רבים. עיגולים. בפירוד וחילוף זה למעלה מזה כולי. That people really you're not really you're not really seeing it straight. You're saying if I if I will save my money and put it in a IRA account, then by the time I'm 65, what what does anything have to do with that? That's Right. I mean the thing actually as far as a מצוה you're supposed to do that.

It says you're supposed to go according to like the רמב״ם says you're supposed to make live with a budget and stuff like that, you know? Right. But you're not supposed to believe in it. Right.

So that's one thing, is that without the התבוננות, you really don't have the actual real אמונה that the אייבערשטער is ממש here. Right. That's number one. Number two, the sign on a real thing is that he wants to know its פרטים.

Fan Club Analogy – Wanting All Details of God 5:22

Right. Like and and you can see this from fan clubs. From what? Fan clubs. Fan clubs? A fan club. Yeah. You know, like what's his name, Michael Jackson?

Yeah. Like a fan club, or the Beatles? Yeah. Like a fan club. They want to know everything. Like, you know, what are you bothering me? I like the music, and I'm grooving on it, it's nice music.

Right. So, but the thing is that like that like like, for instance, להבדיל, Elvis Presley is dead what, already what, how many years? Who knows. Who knows how long he's dead already, right? And they still want to know, you know, what did he do, and this hotel he was in. Who cares? Right. Why? Because if you're a fan, you want to know all the details.

If you really believed that the אייבערשטער was here and standing with you and He's ממש your friend, Right, you want to know all about Him. So, you have a friend, like you meet a guy, you meet a new guy and you want to be friends with him, you say, "Oh, where you from?

And what do you do? Are you married? You got kids?" You want to know all the details. Right. If you don't want to know the details, it means you're really not interested. Right. It's the whole thing of interest, you know? Right. If you show interest in something, so you want to know all the details. So, that means if you don't want to know the details, it means you're totally not interested in the אייבערשטער.

Right. You have nothing to do with Him. And to you, it's what do you mean he's standing here? You say, "Yeah, but I believe he's standing here." I said, "Yeah, but to you, it's like he's not there." Right. It's even worse than that. It's an insult. You're ignoring him. So, the thing is if you're not interested in him, it means you're ignoring him. Yeah. So, if you don't And he's in front of you, but you're ignoring him.

Yeah, if you don't believe he's there, so at least you're not ignoring him. Right. But if you believe he's there and you're not interested, the guy's standing right there, and you won't even say hello to him.

Right. You know, you won't say hello, you don't want to talk to him. And and like you see, I mean, he wants to know everything about you, he's interested. Right. But you don't want to know nothing about him. Right. So, it's ממש an insult. It's like, you know, it's like a guy is standing there and you're ignoring him. It's the biggest insult you can have.

Ignoring God is the Greatest Insult 7:53

Right. ועיין מאמר זה כולו ויובן כולו עתה בדרך שאר המאמרים בבחינת הכתרים שבכל עולם, שאין בכתרים בחינת התפשטות התפשטות עילה ועלול בריחוק מדרגה כלל. Really, by the by the by the כתרים, there's no real התפשטות. כמו בבחינת הרצון הפשוט שבעצמות אין סוף, מה שנאמר עלה ברצונו הפשוט, כולו, בבחינת מלכות דאין סוף עצמה, שעלה במחשבה פשוטה אנא אמלוך, כולו, שהוא למעלה מרוצה להאציל ולברוא, כולו, רק בבחינת היולי עדיין, וממנו נצמח תחילה בבחינת רצון הקדום שנקרא כתר לא"ק, ואחר כך הרצון להאציל בבחינת כתר דאצילות בכלל, ואחר כך הרצון לברוא, בבחינת כתר של מלכות דבריאה, ואחר כך כתר מלכות דיצירה, כולו, עד כתר מלכות דעשיה, הרצון לעשות.

מה שנאמר, כל אשר חפץ השם, עשה. ממש like one thing. Right, it's all one one continuum. Right. What He wanted, that's what He did. Means that the רצון to do, like in a person, the רצון to do is not less than the רצון to think about it. Right. Actually, it's more. The whole reason he's thinking about it is because he wants to do it. Right. וממה נפשך, בהיות מתוכן בבחינת רצונו ועצמותו ההיולי, שהיה כלול בו כל הרצונות, מרצון לעצמות גופיה לרצון לפעול ולעשות היש האחרון, הכל משורש מקור אחד, it's all the same רצון.

ממקור אחד יצא, כולו, אם כן אין הפרש ממש בין בחינת רצונו הפשוט שנמשך להיות רצון להאציל, לבחינת רצונו הפשוט שנמשך להיות חפץ הויה בכל אשר עשה, בסוף עולם העשיה שלנו, כולו, ודי למבין. So, it's ממש one thing. Same like by a person, it All connected. It's, you know, the whole thing is a משל, it's so alike that it is the same thing by us, even though really between the mouth and the brain there's a whole bunch of things going on.

Desire to Act – Walking Without Thought 10:11

Right. But when you talk, you don't have to think about it. As a matter of fact, it's opposite, like when a person walks, if he starts to think about which nerves are going on and which muscle to move, he'll fall over. Right, he won't be able to walk. Right, it's just the whole thing happens automatically from the beginning to the end. He wants to walk, he walks.

Right. That's it. Poof, he walks.
