VAYISHLACH

Shalom, Shalom. We commence this DEVAR TORAH by focusing our ATTENTION on the title of the PARASHAT. The title of the PARASHAT is VAYISHLACH. The IVRI transliteration VAYISHLACH is interpreted into the ENGLISH term SENT. The PARASHAT VAYISHLACH begins its UNFOLDMENT with a SCENARIO of EVENTS descriptive of the CHALLENGES that YAACOB encountered in his return to his ABBA’S house. This SCENARIO of EVENTS is a REVELATION of the trek in the JOURNEY of the MANY BECOMING ONE. In other words, it reveals what has been predetermined in the Holy of Holies (Causal level) in the INFOLDMENT of the GOAL of CREATION, that is, the ATTAINMENT of those who are undergoing the human conscious experience of a CONSCIOUS UNION with ECHAD. The ATTAINMENT is experienced as both the revelation and actualization of the SUPERNAL that is latent within.

The following description contained within the SCENARIO discloses the PATH of the ATTAINMENT, it is written, “Then Jacob said, God of my father Abraham and God of my father ISAAC; HaShem Who said to me, Return to your land and to your relatives and I will do good with you - I have been diminished by all the kindnesses and by all the truth that You have done Your servant; for with my staff I crossed this Jordan and now I have become two camps.” (Genesis 32:10,11) In this passage of TORAH, the process that we are destined to undergo in the realization and actualization of our CONSCIOUS UNION is disclosed. Our PATRIARCH YAACOB speaks of the DIMINISHING of the EGO through the KINDNESSES of ECHAD. The KINDNESSES experienced by YAACOB are descriptive of the PROCESS of ECHAD pouring out CORPOREAL blessings upon him. The INTENT of this outpouring of BLESSINGS is to expand the EGO to the place where ECHAD can begin to pour HIMSELF into the VESSEL, yea, the VESSEL was created opposite of ECHAD with the idea of TRANSFORMATION. The TRANSFORMATION occurs as a result of the CREATOR’S NATURE to GIVE. By creating us as receivers, the NATURE of the CREATOR is fulfilled with the idea of our participation in the process of the TRANSFORMATION. Thus the DIMINISHING of the EGO is not its destruction, but rather the ASCENSION into the ATTAINMENT of a CONSCIOUS UNION with ECHAD.
