Rebbe Mamer – Lehain Inyan Neirois Chanukah – Vayeishev 5756

1. A Tzaddik can annual a negative decree, for as God gives him the power – his decree overrides.

2. A Chossid, is one who serves God, for God’s sake.

3. Just like the power of desire – controls all our limbs – and because the essence of our limbs is pleasure, hence pleasure automatically increases – likewise, though the Tzaddik controls reality (it is coerced…) but the Chossid, as his pleasure is God; and as God’s pleasure is the essence of reality, therefore automatically all goes in his direction – finally, a person who teaches another (especially one who knows not) Torah, because pleasure comes from something unique (and this is a new novelty (i.e. his Torah) therefore this gives God pleasure, and all goes for him well.)

4. There are three types of revelations (arich, atik, atzmus) in arich the light (such as by Matan Torah) is so great, that all before her are humbled (however not transformed… (as we saw, 40 days later, the Jews worshiped a golden calf) in atik (as in the times of King Solomon) the light transforms (hence the Queen of Sheba came to seek wisdom – however in atzmus, where there is no other reality (for even in atik, as it is the head of seder hishtalshulut therefore the other is, and they have transformed, whereas in atzmus one senses that they – their very being – is one and the same as the king.)

5. One of the key differences between the times of King Solomon, where the sparks (people) were attracted and therefore transformed, is that in the times of King Solomon a. the sparks heard about it (hence in their location, they were still dark,) b. only after coming, did they receive light – however, in the times of Moshiach (which we are in) the sparks (people) in their location – and who they themselves are, by understanding that their very self is God, they completely become.

6. This is also the power of Chassidus, for on one hand, as it comes from the essence of God it has the power to make (at least somewhat…) the individual realize, that they are in fact God.

7. This is why Chanukah candles are set in the outside – to light up the darkness – for as we are dealing with the essence of God, it can a. come anywhere and b transform (anything.)

8. This is why the miracles (which shows the essence of God) came through Matisyahu and his children, because they understood, that even the darkness comes from God, hence they had the courage to fight.

Rebbe Mamer Padah Bishaloim – 5726

1. Chassidim (Tzaddikim) have a power to bless.

2. A blessing is greater than a request / prayer, for the former causes, while the second beseeches.

3. The great Tzaddikim were able to create transformations of their reality through their Torah.

4. Charity is helping another in their needs; kindness is making them wealthy – above and beyond.

5. Kindness is also to the wealthy, and the essence of kindness is bringing a type of wealth, that is of a qualitative greater experience – hence when the Jews were in the time of King Solomon, they were blessed not only with material but tremendous spiritual (which is why then the Beis Hamikdosh was built – in fact all the sparks of holiness were drawn to Shlomoh.)

6. Refining the world through the revealed part of the Torah which deals with negative (such as lies etc.) is a refinement through war, but through the inner dimension – is like in the time of Solomon, through peace.

7. When Moshiach comes, will be an exponentially greater revelation – for in the times of Shlomoh, was the completion of revelation, but in the times of Moshiach, the completion of truth (the essence… – which is both higher than revelation, but being unlimited can likewise.)

8. When Moshiach comes we will realize how every part of us, is part of God.

9. By spreading Chassidus we bring Moshiach,  

Mamer – Rebbe – Yud Tes Kislev

Pasach

1. When a Jew has mesirus nefesh (sacrifice for God) this brings that God’s – the infinite comes into the finite.

2. Nature is how God deals with everything, according to its need and limitations, miracles is where things “don’t Matter,” and God deals with everything as He sees fit – the ultimate is when the nature itself conforms to beyond.

3. Nature – has three meanings a. it is something that is a constant miracle, b. it is unlike a coin, which all are similar, though we all come from Adam, we are all unique… – and it refers to that which the mind cannot comprehend (so we say, it is nature.)

According to the first interpretation that nature is constant miracles – this refers to as God descends in nature – according to the explanation that we all come from Adam, this refers to the spirit (for nature contains spirit and the bodies are aligned to the spirts) and finally, according to the explanation that nature refers to that which is beyond – this refer to the infinite Divine force which creates matter continually.

4. The idea that our soul – spirit, comes from God – this of-course on one hand is / isn’t, felt – for we are aware that we have a life-force, though we are not aware it is Divine – conversely, the fact that every moment God recreates everything – because this energy doesn’t enter, therefore we are not aware (that even our physical bodies are pure Divinity.)

5. Both the spirit and the house (body) of the spirit, are uniquely shaped and suited (for each other.)

The desire for everything is the reason it exists, and then God’s wisdom shapes (its spirit and body.)

The fact that we exist as independent (self-aware) beings, is because God wanted that the arrogant should be humble.

6. The sprit / form, of us, is God’s ultimate desire.

7. The fact that God conceals Himself, shows His power (of concealment,) the fact that God reveals himself (say though spirit – miracles) show his power of revelation – but the ultimate power is that within the concealment is revelation.

8. Ultimately this ability – to be beyond within, comes from the essence of God, and is the fundamental desire (of God, creation and hence we have this ability.)
