Torah 62 Tinyana: Rabeinu teaches us that the journeys of the Jewish People atone for the sin/blemish of idol worship…

Rabeinu connects this to G-dly compassion and explains that G-d is always compassionate, even in the afflictions that we receive… BUT we want that G-d gives a compassion that we understand, so we ask G-d that He gives us the compassion in OUR hands so we decide how the compassion is brought down.

Torah 63: Yaakov Avinu gave his 10 sons the melody of the Land of Israel when they went down to Egypt.

Rabeinu also discusses how each shepherd has a unique melody that is derived from the places in which he pastures, etc…

Rabeinu speaks about the greatness of song, the ability it has to draw sustenance to creation, and lots of awesome ideas…

G-d is above and beyond the concept of time, and this we cannot understand because we are limited by the bounds of our human intellect. But Rabeinu teaches us that the greater a persons intellect, the more time becomes meaningless…

There’s an intellect so high where time is completely nullified and isn’t considered anything at all! We see this with the Mashiach, when G-d tells him “you are my son, today I gave birth to you” (Psalms 2).

This is evident in a dream as well: it can seem to a person that he went through 70 years in a dream but once he wakes up he realizes it’s only been 15 minutes. This is because during sleep, our intellect is taken away and all we have is the imagination, but once our intellect is returned to us, we realize that it’s only been an actual 15 minutes. This same understanding applies to time when it comes to those with very very lofty intellects. The greater your intellect is, the more time is contracted…

Rabeinu explains the true meaning behind the story mentioned in the Gemara Pesachim 112, and why a Rabbi Shimon makes this threat to his own teacher Rabbi Akiva!

Rabeinu also discusses why prices rise during war, why murder/war cause drought, why teaching improper students Torah can cause drought and lead to imprisonment…

Rabeinu also talks about revealing benevolences/chasadim through Torah novelties, the humility of R’ Akiva, and the entire interaction between R’ Akiva and R’ Shimon…

Torah 53 Tinyana: Rabeinu discusses the greatness of thoughts and the even greater aspect of wisdom!

Torah 54: Rabeinu explains why a Jew has the power to choose in any single given scenario. Free Will is in the hands of a Jew!

Torah 55: One can earn a profit that is immeasurable in the world to come just from the effort one puts in this world!

Torah 56: When a person has a Jewish heart, place isn’t applicable to him at all- he is above the concept of a place. He becomes the place of the entire world!

Torah 57: What happens when a great and true tzadik reveals Torah…

Torah 58: The greater the Tzadik and his ability to nullify himself/to attain AYIN-nothingness, the more he is able to pay attention and engage with the world (unlike what others say that when a tzadik is so big he has nothing to do with the rest of the world).

Torah 59: Sometimes a person can be hasty and win, and sometimes a person can be hasty and lose…

Depending on whether a person grows up in holiness from his youth or not will depend how fast he should act in serving G-d…

Torah 49 Tinyana: Rabeinu emphasizes that G-d is ultimately compassionate and wants us very much! We must therefore move on and not dwell in the past, the main thing is just not to do what you once did that was bad. Therefore, when a person is doing teshuva, he must pass through all the places he was once in, and when he decides to not turn to his evil inclination, this is complete teshuva!

Torah 50: One cannot have 2 thoughts at the same time, and one must direct his thoughts in the proper direction, just like we redirect a horse with reins when he strays off the right path!

Torah 51: We must be stubborn against the evil inclination, which is constantly knocking in us many times over to encourage us to sin… but one who’s stubborn and strong will ignore the evil inclination and by default, it will vanish.

Torah 52: It is necessary that people raise questions against the tzadikim because they emulate their Creator. And the Creator Himself is so exalted and above the grasp of our minds that it’s fitting for G-d that people raise questions on Him, considering that NOBODY understands His ways!

“A person must pass through a very very narrow bridge, but the main/essential thing is not to be afraid AT ALL!”

This crucial lesson is Rabeinu giving all of those people who truly want to serve G-d the fundamental advice on how to be strong when it gets tough! Rabeinu explains that it’s the way of HASHEM to show a person rejection when he wants to come close to Him. The main thing is not discourage yourself and to be mentally strong.

Rabeinu teaches us that we have to encourage ourselves constantly, and not even let G-d Himself discourage us, when it feels as if He wants nothing to do with us… because the truth is, G-d is ultimately merciful and finds our service very very precious!

Torah 46 Tinyana: Rabeinu explains how a person can sacrifice his soul at any time, or at any single given moment: either through tzedaka/charity, or prayer, and many other acts…

Rabeinu also discusses obstacles, and how obstacles are actually just a complete illusion of the mind! We must not pay attention to anyone standing in the way of holiness and drawing close to G-d.

He also teaches us that when a person is overcome with doubts and difficulties, we must look up and scream to G-d from the depths of our heart.

Torah 47: Rabeinu explains the dangers of giving a Torah lesson, and discusses what type of mastery a person must have before he does so: he must be able to weigh his words so that every person only grabs what he needs to hear, not more or not less!

Rabeinu explains that the klipot/husks take all the excess Torah that doesn’t enter the person listening and nourishes itself off of that Torah… but Rabeinu gives us advice on how to diminish these husks, even the husks that nourish itself off the body of the Torah…

Torah 41 Tinyana: G-d accomplishes wonders through those who give rulings on Jewish Law/Halacha!

Torah 42: Rabeinu connects the verse in the Torah which says “ For I am G-d your healer” to the infamous phrase of “Amen, May it be His will”

Torah 43: Rabeinu says that when a person has a faint heart, he is beset with fears…

Torah 44: Rabeinu gives us an extremely important teaching outlining the importance of faith and simplicity, and avoiding wisdom and heresy…. Rabeinu also teaches us to avoid unnecessary stringencies and even true wisdoms in serving G-d…

This is a very fundamental Torah for anyone who wants to come close to G-d! Study it very closely!

Torah 45: Rabeinu explains that as long as a person is within the bounds of the circles that surround the inner point, which is Shabbat/the Tzadik, one still has hope of being able to draw close to that inner point, but once one leaves the boundaries of these circles, then he has no hope of drawing close…

One who truly knows the genuine taste of the Land of Israel can tell if someone had been with the true tzadik for Rosh Hashana.

Rabeinu teaches us the most amazing Torah connecting Divine Providence, the eyes, tefillin, the kibbutz of Rosh Hashana, wisdom, attaining the eyes of G-d, and many other lofty ideas.

Rabeinu also emphasizes the importance of being with the true tzadik on Rosh Hashana, and this Torah is just a mere glimpse of the awesome rectifications that take place!
