Page 29-30. A discussion on the idea of Hashem being a מצוי ראשון or lowering himself to be a מציאות נמצא. At that point He automatically has an אור- אין של היש האמיתי. The absolute need for two Ayins if there’s to be another Yesh. Three Meshalim (examples) for the idea of the two Ayins:…

page 28, 30 (inside). This continues the last two discussions, we read the text about the various levels of אור אין סוף קודם הצמצום.

Page 28, 30. This class continues the discussion of the class before struggling to explain אור אין סוף, especially without the help and clarifications of the later מאמרים (like the סמך ואו). We explore the plainness transcendence, of אור and the idea of גילוי- revelation. How Chassidus slowly develops out understanding of the קבלה concepts…

Page 28, 30. The question of Ohr, how we understand the idea of Godliness using the metaphor of light. The questions that arise about the Mashal. אור מעין המאור, exactly like the Source, but nothing at all of the Source. How could there be levels, how could there be a revelation, how are there two…

Page 28, 43. Introduction and overview of the next 15 pages. We are being introduced to a new idea: where we are not only joining קודשא בריך הוא with שכנתי’ה but actually creating (bringing it forward to be removed like קדוש at least). There are two explanations: 1) The two levels of גילוי אור אין…

Page 24- 5. When one meditates on the aforementioned צמצומים that allow for creation to exist [they can react by focusing on themselves and the sustaining of the צמצום or] they react by wanting the truth, rather than the צמצום. In this מאמר he desires the entire truth. Three [or four] levels: 1) שכינה the…

Page 25-7. Four levels of שכינה וקדושה: 1) מלכות וז”א 2) בינה וחכמה 3) אריך אנפיו ועתיק יומין 4) קו (כולל כמו שהוא בשרשו) ואור אין סוף שלמעלה מגילוי. The class explains how this relativism can exist. There’s אמת everywhere and a lower truth is (in a real way) higher than a higher not so…

Page 27-8. This Shiur has two parts. The first part ends the סוגיא of יחוד קוב”ה ושכינתי’: Mitzvos reach Kidusha and join it with Schechina, on all levels bringing Kidusha from Atzmus. The same applies to Torah that (only) passes through Chochma Ila’a. He explains the idea of מקדשי שמך, which is also about about…

Page 16. The same three ideas about Malchus apply in the source before the Tzimtzum. The four worlds of כללות: אוא”ס לפני הצמצום= אצילות דכללות. אדם קדמון= בריאה דכללות עקודים ונקודים= יצירה דכללות .אצילות דפרטות [ברודים]= עשי’ דכללות These were explained in brief especially אצילות דכללות- גילוי אור אין סוף קודם הצמצום.

מלכות דאין סוף is explained in this class. Uncertainty about the meaning of this term here is addressed and a (possible) explanation offered.
