19:34 – There are four mystical worlds and the light of Hashem reaches into even the lowest level of the lowest world.
23:00 – “Even in the valley of death I will not fear because You are with me” (Tehillim 23).
27:00 – PARAGRAPH 12. Wool and linen. Gan Eden and repairing the sin of Adam and Chava. The origin of all clothing we have in the world was the garments Hashem made for Adam and Chava after their sin. What is the deeper meaning of garments and clothing?* (through 49:00)
35:18 – Gan Eden is an aspect of bitul.
49:00 – (Lesson 030c). A person needs garments to be able to connect with Hashem. Forces of evil attack clothing. Yosef HaTzaddik and the wife of Potiphar.
*54:47 – Yechezkel HaNavi : chashmal (spiritual light/energy) and klipas noga (twilight) – negative forces that can be transmuted to positive forces. The Arizal brings: chashmal is b’gematria livush (clothing). Clothing is the boundary between holiness and unholiness.
