1. What are Sefirot?
• Sefirot are creation's spiritual energies that coalesce into the spiritual and material matter of the universe.
• These become expressed in the human being through Mind (Seichel) and Emotion (Middos) which in turn become the human personality. There are 3 flows of Mind and 7 of Emotion.
• There are therefore 49 combinations of emotion -- the combinations of the 7 Middos.
• The nature of Hessed is to share. The nature of Gevurah is to restrain. The nature of Tif'eret is to balance these two but in favour of Hessed.
2. Archetypes for the Three Primary Emotions
• Hessed is the Sefira through which Ahava (love) flows. Abraham is the archetype of Hessed.
• Gevurah is the Sefirah through which Yir'ah (fear) flows. Yitzhak is the archetype of Gevurah.
• Tif'eret is the Sefirah through which Rachamim (mercy, compassion) flows. Yaakov is the archetype of Tif'eret.
3. How to Arouse Compassion
• Kabbalah explains that focusing on the spark of inner consciousness, the soul, and its quest to express truly through the coarseness of the body, is an excellent meditation practice for compassions.
• The spiritual source of the material body is Kelipat Noga, 'the translucent shell around the fruit', compared to the three completely Tameh (impure) Kelipot (shells) that wholly hide the innate goodness of creation.
• The nature of the human body changed from complete transparency to translucency through the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge Good and Bad.
• When choice (Bechira Chofshis) is exercised poorly, the 'Jacobean cord' is pulled down within the coarseness of the material world with a corresponding effect at the other end of the cord, causing the 'exile of the Shechina'. The spark of soul becomes further enmeshed and entrapped. Contemplating this arouses compassion for the soul.
4. Jacob Kissed Rachel
• The forefathers and mothers also represent higher spiritual entities and energy forces.
• Rachel represents the Shechina, the source of all Jewish souls Above. In Kabbalistic terms she is the level of Malchus of Atzilus. Yaakov represents the source of compassion. This is the level of Tif'eres of Atzilus.
• Jacob kissed Rachel Kabbalistically means that the compassion aroused for the spark of soul within -- the Shechina was elicited by profound contemplation, not merely through words.
The next and final session of this series on Love will analyze the nature of Reciprocal Love -- How to Evoke the Love of Another.
Rabbi , this is so true and real on the physical and spiritual, I have been going through horrific challenges and the other day I was saying Modeh Ani, and I expericenced a breath of life breathing into me ! BH
thank you rabbi i needed that talk today
wow, thank you I have only just found you and listen to your videos for hours thank you so much for sharing. My spirit leaps as you speak these truths, Thank you.
Sir,
You´re very good!!!
Thanx for Your work,engagement!!!!
This is so interesting. I have found out that the things I say to others is a reflection of my own experiences. We are actually talking to the mirror of our own experiences all the time. The essence of God is in us. Therefore it's so important to see the good things in others. The things that bring us closer to God not the things that seperate us from God. Seeing and feeling healing is in my opinion the way.
Insightful

how do you talk about god, when judaism has no monotheistic concept or word for god ...as known in the christian monotheistic way
I have...Jews don’t believe in god, this is a theological concept, thought up by the Greek thinkers of that day, Hellenic... ,this man is talking about kaballah, a15 century composition, that has been taken from other ,and as usual they call it there own, as in the true nature of thieves,,typically Jew...it seems u need to do ur homework
@@isis082008 Please, It is you who has no idea what you're talking about. Abraham was the father, Started monotheistic religion. The belief in 1 God, and our Holy Jewish Nation! Please educate yourself in life firstly.. before you start making laughable comments, on things you know nothing about 😉
