Unbounded Spiritual Power Driving Motion 0:04

מה שאין כן מצד עצם כח הרוחני שהמניע התנועה שאין בה הגבלה והפסק. On the other hand, this actual spiritual power movement does not have any limitation, and it will never stop, will never, like, run out. וראיה מהגבהת משא כבד הבאה בבהלה פתאומית ביתר הרבה מכפי מכחי מצד בחינת מקיף כידוע. And the and the the proof for this is when a person has, like, a sudden scare, and they, like, lift something that's much heavier than they could really lift, which is because the מקיף that that the soul, like, forces the body to do more than it can really do.

So there, like, in a way the the essential power movement is kind of revealed. Exactly how that works, I don't know, I don't know if I mean exactly, like it's it's but like there's all these stories where like like people did these kind of crazy things like jumped over huge things that a person normally couldn't jump over, you know, like with wars and stuff, or even like fit themselves into spaces that were too small for them to fit in.

You know what I mean? Like they kind of body they they shrunk their body a little bit, you know what I mean? To like fit in somewhere.

So normally that's not within the ability of the body to do these kind of things. But what happens is that the soul like really has a much greater control over the body than is normally like revealed, and so it like it forces, you know, it's kind of it's like the ענין of a miracle, that it like forces it to comply to its רצון, and the the the actual physical body really could do it because the the that's what he explains later, you know, explain about like the source of miracles, and whatever, the different types of things, that it comes from like the level of the מקיף, and because the actual matter is stupid and it doesn't care, you know what I mean, like water doesn't really care if it's going to flow or like go stand up like a wall, like when the sea split, it's just, you know, it doesn't really it's just stuff, and it will do whatever it's told to do.

So the same thing, like the matter of your body will really just do whatever the soul tells it to do, but normally the soul is not able to tell it to do certain things, but when like it it's like really in big trouble, and so has a huge רצון, it you know, it reveals like this essential ability and it kind of it's like a miracle on the body.

Depth of Soul Increases Miraculous Ability 2:45

It depends on how high you go. The deeper you go, the more limitations get lifted.

Like really, if you would reveal deep enough, you know, you could really do anything. It's like and you you see this even with like hypnosis and stuff like that, you know what I mean? Where there's like different levels of like how deep you can go, bring somebody into like their subconscious, and like the deeper you go, the more you can get them to do, the more amazing things you can get them to do.

And but there's deeper and deeper levels, and this is also why, by the way, like a lot of things like faith healing and different things like that work,

because really your you're you have the ability to heal yourself at a certain level in your soul, that your soul can like make your body fix itself up and make your body work however it wants it to, you know what I mean?

So a person that's sick, it's because the soul like kind of stopped caring and just let the body deteriorate, but if you, you know, tap into a deeper level that the the soul can like make the body fix itself up and even and there's, you know, the deeper you go the more miraculous type of things it can do, where it could like even like happen like instantaneously and stuff like that, you know what I mean?

Placebo vs. Belief in Spiritual Healing 4:11

Well, there's like placebo, and then there's like even more than than like a placebo where, like, you know, people go to like some psychic healer or something or, you know, some spiritual guy tells them and they like believe because they believe in him so much that it actually can do stuff, but it only works because they believe in it. You know what I mean?

Believing? Well, because you believe in this thing, so because really, that's the thing. Like really all stuff has a certain element of that. Like even regular medicine, it's not like a guaranteed thing that's going to have a certain effect in your body.

Your body reacts to that stimulus in a certain way, but it's in a way that's coming from your soul, not from It's not like a purely physical thing.

So there's different levels of how much, you know, how much it's like מלובש בטבע and how much it's not מלובש בטבע, you know what I mean? But it's really either way it's really within טבע and either way it's really למעלה מהטבע.

So it depends how much you want to go.

Matter and Form: Limits of Physical Vessels 5:20

Anyway, yeah. וכך הוא כל ענין חומר וצורה, this is the whole idea of a חומר and a צורה, that the that the matter limits the form. Whenever you put something into a form, it limits it. שהחומר מלבד שהוא בא בשינוי המעלות, besides that the that the when you put it into matter, it changes from spiritual to physical, הנה הוא מגביל הצורה, it also limits the form. In other words, that it's representing something, but now it's being it's limited to being, you know, like if you the idea of like a cup.

So if you make a cup, now it's limited that you only have one particular example of a cup, but really you can make different cups. So it's a limited, you know, it's always limited. אבל החומר הוא מעין ודוגמת הצורה,

but nevertheless, the matter is made in a way that is according to the form, so it fits the form. It actually is, like the cup is actually a cup and it's made to be a cup. כמו חומר כלי העין לראות, like the vessel, the eye, the matter of the eye is actually built in a way that's good for seeing. It's you know, it has to be clear and whatever.

Like you see like when they make a a video camera, they have to make it kind of like the eye, or else it won't work. They have to make it in a certain way to be able to be a vessel for that. וחומר כלי המוח להשכיל כהאי גוונא, and like the vessel of the the the mind is made, the brain is made like a computer. It's like a similar, you know what I mean?

It's like made in a way that's fitting to think. וכהאי גוונא, אבל החומר נעשה מהתעבות והגשמה של הצורה הרוחנית.

Because the the matter is made, not the actual stuff, but the form of the matter is made from the thickening and the materializing of the spiritual form. In other words, that what you do is you have the concept of what you want to a concept accomplish, which is abstract, and then you make it more tangible, which means you thicken it and you make it like physical, and then you come up with like a physical form, which is the form of the vessel.

From Desire to Cup: Materializing Intent 7:21

So for example, like your desire to drink water, you know, becomes is this is like the form for the cup. And that desire, then you figure out like based on the situation, the way that water works, you need something that will like that that that is water that, you know, can hold water. Certain thing materials can hold water and certain materials cannot hold water, and it has to be something that, you know what I mean, doesn't have holes in it and it has to So, you know, the shape and the material of the cup are are already starting to become defined that you need.

It's like partially, you know, materialized in in your mind what you're looking for. You're looking for something that is watertight and, you know, like practical to use as a cup and for different ways. You know what I mean? And then you want like a way that you can hold on to it, so you need like some sort of a handle, or the outside has to be like a handle.

You know, there's certain different that that because of what you're trying to accomplish, when you look at that goal that like which is an abstract thing, and you start to look at it how that would be within the limitations of the world around you, you start to get a picture of the way the cup should be.

And then you add in maybe some like aesthetic considerations. You want it to be, you know, match your kitchen and, you know, and you start to get a pretty good idea of what you're looking for.

And then it depends what you want. Do you want it for hot or do you want it for cold? You know what I mean? So like a mug is meant to be good for holding hot stuff because like the ceramic is is good at insulating hot stuff, but like a glass is not good for hot stuff so much because the outside gets very hot when it's hot on the inside and also it can like ruin the glass, but like like wine glasses are made for wine.

The stem is made so that you you don't heat up the wine by holding the glass and that you don't get the glass dirty with your hands, so you can see the color of the wine, you know, because it's like people like to be able to look at the wine and see how clear it is and see the color, and they want it to be like, you know, chilled a little bit or or whatever, not to be warmed up by your hand, you know what I mean?

So like the form of the cup is made according to the light, but that the the the the the light is like the רצון that you're trying to accomplish with the this, and the thing is made, the matter is made to be a toll according to the specifications that you need. But there's a difference. One is like an abstract considerations and what are the practical considerations that are circumstantial, which is like kind of like the idea of going back to like the ט״ו, or like the difference between a house and a home.

You know what I mean? That it goes from like this inner desire to being a רצון מורכב. So that's like the same idea here.

That's what it means that from the התעבות האור נעשה כלי, from the thickening of the light comes the vessel.

Yeah, the form of the eye is made, right, to fit according to the the power of sight. 'Cause the power of sight has certain specifications, and therefore within the physical world the way it works, you're going to have to have the eye has to be clear, or else it won't work.

It has to like it has to be sensitive to light, and it has to, you know, there's certain things and how it's going to work.

So therefore that defines how the eye has to be built in order to work.

Right, מסוף כל המדריגות שבו, from the lowest levels of the spiritual form comes this the physical form. In other words, that you have to make it more and more particular and more and more tangible until the finally it's it's particular enough that you can make an actual physical thing to to, you know, fulfill that purpose, like we were just got this just described.
