Mystical Insights In The Parshah – Vayeira 5752

By zevi770 · November 2, 2015

It is known that in addition to the fact that all matters of the Torah are eternal lessons, there is a specific relevance to the time of that week.
Every idea of the Torah – its sequence etc. – is absolutely exact.
There is also a exact message in the Parsha visa-vie the day of the month it falls on.
The level of Godliness that came to Abraham following the Milah was novel in two respects, for it was a. the highest revelation b. it descended in a internal manner.
The two levels are interconnected for specifically that which descends lowest comes from the highest.
God’s revelation is specifically to the lowest rung – namely to worthy people on earth – for all other levels are only fractions of light – while God himself comes to the worthy individual.
As is known that the true revelation of the true Being comes into the lowest created – us.
This highest level is the true identity – the Divine soul – of every Jew.
The true source of life in every Jew is his Godly soul which is the marriage of the highest in the lowest.
As God’s presence is everywhere (Kabbalistickly our existence is in the vacuum – the black hole that traps light to the extent, though it is the greatest light possible all one sees is dark) but even – or especially – children sense God.
We educate children that the reason they say Birchas Hamazon (grace) is to thank God.
Jewish children have a special affinity for holiness as we can see by how they love to kiss the Mezuzah.
The idea of kissing the mezzuzah is, that as we kiss it as we pass through the doorway, it reminds us that all the contents inside and outside belong to the one God.
Every child should have their own Chumash, Pushkah (charity box) Siddur etc. in their room, making their room a microcosm of the Beis Hamikdosh (holy-temple.)
The Rambam teaches that when we see and kiss the mezzuzah it reminds us that there is a Creator of all and only our knowledge of his oneness matters.
When we have a Bris (or for girls automatically) our Divine soul enters, this soul give us the perception of Godliness (mentioned above) however in order for us to have the revelation of God – similar to Avrohom who after his Bris God revealed himself – we need to earn it.
We must know that the teaching that God appeared to Abraham relates specifically to every Jew and it is up to us to do all we can to merit it – this is through dedicating our lives to producing the holiness of Israel wherever we are.
The reason the Rebbe Rashabs birthday is on Chay Marcheshvan is because chay is life, indicating the true life of every Jew is his Divine soul but it must illuminate the “Bitter Cheshvah” which indicates the darkness – by expressing in our thoughts speech and action our entire goal is transforming the material into spiritual.
When Moshaich comes the Divine will imbue every single Jew and as it brings with it every blessing everyone will be healed and will have every possible positve blessing.
The main aspect of Moshiach will be the individual Divine revelation – in other words how each individual will experience interact with and see the Divine.
It is known that there is a part of the soul of Moshiach in every single Jew but this is most seen in children called Mishachai (MY Moshiach) particularly as their outer faculties are less developed hence their inner sensitivity is more transparent.
The coming of Moshiach depends on the revelation of your inner Moshiach – revealing this Divine side and when all Jews do so Moshiach will arrive.
We must deeply desire the revelation of this spark (which manifests it) and then act in accordance with this dimension of reality which is already Messianic – in other words, behave today as you were in the Messianic reality.
And the main thing is that by studying Chassidus now in a way that you fully grasp the spiritual idea, this is the preparation for the true and final redemption through Moshiach – then we shall study the esoteric wisdom in the highest level as it states “kiss lip to lip” “that God’s speech to us will be person to person” (similar to as it states about Mosses.) For a “New Torah will come from me” “Me” means literally (hence as it is the essence of God it can descend to an individual level) and its study will not be that a person will teach his friend rather directly from God and furthermore in a manner of sight (total comprehension) similar to “and God appeared to him” “And your eyes will see your master” with total grasp.
We have already completed everything necessary for the coming of Moshiach hence the beginning of the era of Moshiach has begun.
And the main thing is, the existence of Moshiach already is in our world! as we know in every generation there is a descendent of King David who is worthy to be the Moshiach!
And as the Previous Rebbe said, we are now prepared for Moshiach, hence not only do we have the existence of Moshiach (obviously the Rebbe) but also his revelation and it is now our job to simply accept him! (which means obviously to accept the truths, torah teachings.)
Practically one must realize, all including oneself is a Divine creation!
We need to live with the reality of Moshiach, for example after one eats one still hungers for the meal God will make when Moshiach comes –as it says “God will make a feast for the Tzaddikim and all will eat and drink and Kind David will say Grace.”
