  How do we really know

  that after all the elul v'alul that we work so hard at and "understand" that we've really gotten to the truth?

  If he's healthy the parent prioritizes the child

  More than himself. If this is true does then the grandparent prioritize his child, the parent,  more than himself as well?

  Ergo, the grandparent's highest priority should be the grandchildren! 

  Does Hashem then prioritize his children (us) more than He prioritizes Himself?

  after Moshiach you will see the Godliness in the yacht

  that is a different yesh where you see the ayin at the same time

  a paradox !!

  "all flesh will see that the mouth of God has spoken" (pasuk yshaya i think)

  even Kedoshim is a name

  the fact the soul is "called " kedoshim is itself a name even though it is rooted in God's thought 

  have i got that right?

  The world and all its creations and parts

  Was created yesh miyayin. The ultimate purpose is Moshiach the person  (matter) and the time of Moshiach  (zman Moshiach). Does kabbala or chasdidus say that AFTER Moshiach comes all yesh, all matter abd energy  will revert to ayin? Will the whole cosmic experiment of creation return to the state before creation?  What will be with my yacht?

  Quantum Leap

  interestingly in physics this is defined as 

  A quantum leap is a discontinuous transition between quantum states. What this means is that an electron in one energy level in an atom jumps instantly into another energy level, emitting or absorbing energy as it does so. There is no in-between state, and it doesn't take any time for the leap to occur.

  this reflects the ultimate quantum leap the maamor describes of somethingness from No-THing-Ness! 

  Thank you Rabbi YY for the clarity !

  so ultimately to have a real devkus with Hashem we need that bittul 

  Bittul is the soul quality that allows us to traverse the quantum leap back to the Ayin!

  Creation yeah miyayin includes the creation of both matter and energy

  Interesting to note that, whereas man cannot create anything, matter or energy from nothing, we have lately been able to transform matter INTO energy. And  this very high (but lower lhan yesh miyayin) level of transformation releases enough energy to destroy a Hiroshima city (and more  chv"S).

  If the soul comes with its own unique middos

  Are humans primarily emotional or intellectual

  If middot are rooted in Atik and Sechel in Arich then how can sechel have the power to redirect emotions?

    Thank you Rabbi YY you answered question - Sechel allows for bittul which is key to overcoming any challenge or Middah

  If we react to someone's words

  based on our own experience and emotions, could lead to misinterpreations and misunderstandings.  Does that then mean we should continue the disucssion to get clarity about what the person really meant, or do we have to figure out what is going on inside of us to warrant the reaction we had? Maybe both?

  Triggers

  We can only be "triggered" and react uncontrolably when we have not invested time into understanding our personal ilah vealul processes

  is random human activity a possibility?

  Can an action ever be random without an antecedent thought or feeling?

  according to this Maamor it would seem that in a normal person there is always a trace to the antecedent 

  sometimes we act in ways that later shock us but only becuase we lacked the self awarenss of the attitudes, and perceptions of self we have that underly our actions
