Class Summary:

This class was presented on Monday, Parshas Ki Sisa, 17 Adar I, 5784, February 26, 2024, at Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim in Monsey, NY.

This class explores why Kabbalah and Chassidus “Dichotomize” G-d into so many "levels" and "parts"? Who needs "Seder Hishtalshlus," the entire order of evolution from the infinite to the finite?

We discuss what makes a marriage blossom, and how only when you can share your most defiant and lonely part with your partner, can you be liberated from loneliness. Incredibly, this true captures the essence of creation, where infinite consciousness, and beyond, chose to fuse with the "other."

G-d enabled you to hit it out of the park again this morning!

I’ve never heard anyone, including yourself up untill today, explain what Seder Hishtalshelus is really all about these past 48 years.

It is invariably conveyed in such an technical, abstract, non-dynamic & boring way, divorced from inner consciousness and personal avodah.

Frankly learning it was always a chore, like leveling concrete necessary for building a patio, a place you don’t really live in. The way G-d enabled you to describe it today makes it 24/7 live able, in fact, a process essential for individual inner growth/avodah as dira b’tachtonim/ embodiment.

B’ezras H-shem I will find the time and strength to re-listen to that segment and take notes for future reference, something I rarely do anymore.

When the student is ready, the teacher appears. Thank you.

PPS: Rabbi Steinsaltz’s insightful & wise advice to you certainly enhanced the consciousness of many of your listeners this morning. Very gratifying.

Marriage is rebirth, and a second chance
To deal with issues. That's why all aveirahs are wiped out upon marriage and we start fresh just like at birth

Is this based on the theory that man is created by a series of evolutionary processes from the big bang till billions of years later developed into man via evolution?
