KORACH
Shalom, Shalom. We commence this DEVAR TORAH by focusing our attention on the response of the NAVI MOSHE to the rebellion of KORACH and his company against the SPIRITUAL LEADERSHIP of BENEI YISRAEL. KORACH and his company had brought a false accusation against MOSHE and AARON the Spiritual Leadership of YISRAEL. It is written, “They gathered together against MOSES and against AARON, and said to them, It is too much for you! For the entire assembly all of them are holy and HaShem is among them; why do you exalt yourselves over the congregation of HaShem.” Num. 16:3.
The response of MOSHE discloses what is implied by SPIRITUAL LEADERSHIP, Torah declares, “Moses heard and fell on his face.” Num. 16:4. This response is what is termed CARPET PRAYER. CARPET PRAYERS are prescribed prayers that are administered three times a day. Those three times are termed: SHACHARIT (morning), MINCHAH (afternoon) and MAARIV (evening) prayers. They are purposed to aid in tapping into the energy of the day. At SHACHARIT, that is, between sunrise and noon, the energy is that of KINDNESS. At MINCHAH, that is, between noon and sundown, the energy is that of JUDGMENT. At MAARIV, the energy is that of MERCY, the time is from sundown to sunrise. The observance of the times of the day coupled with the appropriate prayers gives rise to aligning oneself with the system termed ADAM KADMON and becoming a conduit of the LIGHT. The NAVI MOSHE’S response to the challenge with CARPET PRAYER empowered him with UNLIMITED POTENTIAL, while demonstrating that SPIRITUAL LEADERSHIP is the result of submitting the PHYSICAL BODY to the HIGHER GRADES of the SOUL.
The HIGHER GRADES of the SOUL are what is termed in IVRIT (Hebrew) as CHAYAH and YECHIDAH. These states of CONSCIOUSNESS are states of non differentiation. CHAYAH is non differentiation with the sense of the I AM. YECHIDAH is non differentiation without the sense of the I, but the sensation of the ALL. In these HIGHER STATES of CONSCIOUSNESS, one is empowered to experience an EXPANDED CONSCIOUS whereas there is a revelation of the future. By this MOSHE is enabled to effect the WILL of ECHAD which will UNFOLD the GOAL of CREATION.
Likewise employing EFFECTIVE PRAYER at the appointed times will engender engagement with the LIGHT of the EXPANDED CONSCIOUSNESS (MOCHIN DE GADLUT). Thus ascending above the challenges into the experience of STILLNESS, PEACEFULNESS, QUIETNESS and CONFIDENCE rendering the FULLNESS OF JOY.
