Absorbing vs Emitting
Didn't you say in one shiur that that's how you learned to memorise the Rebbe's talks on Shabbos and Yom tov? What a powerful concept that needs to be applied in fixing relationships! I wish I'd learned this earlier; but even regret is a form of 'emitting'...

Thank you for singing the niggun composed by
R. Twersky a"H that he composed and that was adopted by many communities including Chabad.

"When you're absorbing you can't emit"
How then, did those who translated on the fly, like for the Rebbe's farbrengens, simultaneously listen to new deep concepts and translate into another language and other words at once?

When people communicate words they are put into context
Because there is a prior relationship to provide that context. It's very different if your spouse says certain words, or your child or parents say those same words, or your boss or a stranger.
I.e. words from another come from and are are put into the context of the relationship that existed prior to those words that were uttered. This is even true when those selfsame exact words come from a stranger where there is no prior relationship

It is a given that there was no prior relationship between Hashem and us prior to creation. There was no "US".
So therefore there was no context. His thoughts had to be condensed into words and further condensed into writing in a Book.

It was said that Hashem created creation with His thought
Really?
But we know that He used words, very specific words, to create creation? And chazal over the course of history have extracted myriads of meanings from those words. Many layers.
Moreover, He went further and communicated to us, who came AFTER creation, the words He used to create creation via His written Book, the Torah. (Including the oral Torah later written).
