Speaker: Rabbi Nasan Maimon. This halakha is based on Likutey Moharan 2, Torah 5.
00:00 – Dedications.
03:16 – PARAGRAPH 8. Why Eretz Yisrael (the Land of Israel) was distributed among the 12 shevatim (tribes) through goral (lottery). How Mordechai HaTzaddik defeated Haman by humbling himself before Hashem.
12:28 – PARAGRAPH 9. Out of love for Hashem, sometimes a person does something that appears insane. A person who is willing to humble himself to express his love for Hashem is rewarded with understanding the mysteries of Hashem’s hashgocha (Divine Providence). “I will have pity on them as a person who has pity on his son who serves him.” (Malachi 3:17).
16:27 – Reference to Likutey Moharan 2, Torah 5, Paragraph 15.
22:27 – Account of how Rebbe Nachman fell into the mud on his way to Tashlich on Rosh Hashanah.
23:59 – Sometimes a person needs to put aside all knowledge and simply “jump into the mud” for the sake of Heaven – as when Mordechai put on sackcloth and ashes.
28:15 – Whenever a crisis arises in Am Yisrael, we turn to tefilah (prayer) and the recital of Tehillim (Psalms).
33:56 – QUESTION about kishur hamerkava (“attaching oneself” to the Throne of Hashem).
35:04 – PARAGRAPH 10. The SHeLaH Hakadosh brings that Mordechai is hinted in the written Torah through the words “mor d’ror” (freedom/myhrr, an ingredient in the katores) (Shemos/Exodus 30:23). Revelation of the hidden aspects of creation. Reference to the Arizal’s Pri Etz Chaim on Purim.
36:23 – The 50 Gateways of Binah.
42:44 – Haman’s intent was to take advantage of Israel’s damaged mishpat through preparing a scaffold 50 amos high, corresponding to the 50 Gateways of Binah.
46:31 – Goral of Yom Kippur for the sacrifice of the two goats. The roshei teivos (initial letters) of the verse “Zeh l’umas zeh asa Elokim” (Koheles/Ecclesiastes 7:14) spells Azalzel.
49:31 – The importance of praying mincha. Concept of right and left regarding the korbon mincha. 310 – “yesh” is yemin and smol.
62:26 – Chelbanah (foul-smelling ingredient in the incense offering, galbanum) is b’gematria Haman. (SHeLaH Hakadosh).
63:22 – Sheleymus Tikkun HaMishpat (the perfection of justice) will be completed and established through Moshiach.
64:40 – Closing remarks and blessing for the 15th of Av. Encouragement to visit the gravesites of Tzaddikim to benefit both the soul of the Tzaddik resting there and the person who prays there.
