Wow, my daughter just taught me something extraordinary!
I was sharing with her the amazing teaching of the Rebbe, that everything that occurs is sequential – God’s vision results in God’s action steps, which result in the implementation of his vision.
Of course, we had occasion to mention this on numerous occasions as it encompasses all of reality.
However through God’s grace, benevolence and kindness, I have learnt both today and yesterday two extraordinary sequences to this idea.
This first came from the JLI course Paradigm Shift in which the Rebbe clarifies, that the idea of Vision, Action steps, resulting in Implementation, is necessary, for if God’s reality was simply his vision, then like the Jews in the desert, miraculously saved, supernaturally shown a vision of the Ten-Commandments (they saw what they heard) because they had not chosen it, they had not bought into it, therefore it was a superficial awareness, which dissipated almost as quickly as it came.
In contrast, going through the history / destiny of mankind, particularly today, having the 20/20 hindsight of the absolutely both evil and stupid societies humanity has created, searching for light, finding God, hence fully integrating within our own desire, these truths!
So that was point 1. The benefit of God’s mechanism, is the ability for man and God to “merge;” in other words, it’s not a truth that we submit to, rather one in which we choose to acknowledge! the difference being, the former has only a temporary hold on our awareness, the latter, permanent.
Now for the most amazing gift from my daughter!
She cleverly realized, this is the mechanism of Chochmah, Binah, Daas!
Chassidus teaches, Chochmah is an idea, in this case God’s vision; Binah are the details, the steps to the implementation of the idea; and Daas is the cogitation, confirming this idea to be our desire!
And not to be outdone – after all as my daughter said “she comes from good genes” : ) I realized, this is very profound, for this is truly the mechanism of time:
Time of course is the notion of a past, a present and a future.
Hence comparing this idea to time, there is God’s vision, our experience, resulting in the integration of his wisdom in our hearts.
But here is an amazing concept, which can bring you to peace.
While we experience time in the past / present / future, God’s “experiences” time in the exact opposite.
God’s future was the resulting vision he created, the experiences (time based) that we traverse.
