VAYIKRA

Shalom Shalom. We commence this DEVAR TORAH by focusing our attention on the TRUTH OF BEING. The TRUTH OF BEING is that the essence of life is Supernal. We are referenced to as being the SONS OF G-d. This is based upon the EMET (truth) that we are comprised of two components. Those components are INFINITE and FINITE. The INFINITE component is the CREATOR, that is, the NESHAMAH (Soul). The FINITE component is the CREATURE, that is, the BEGED (clothing) or physical body.

The HISTALSHELUT (Supreme Thought) of this marriage between the CREATOR and the CREATURE is that the BEGED will become a visible manifestation of the NESHAMAH. In EDEN, we attained HERUT R’TZON (freewill) that we would be empowered to participate in the unfoldment of the manifestation. The instructions that give rise to the unfoldment of the manifestation are hidden within the RAZ of TORAH. The RAZ may be described as the revelations contained in the ROOT LANGUAGE that disclose the science thereof.

In this week’s PARASHAT VAYIKRA, we are given in the BRANCH LANGUAGE the general rules of CARBONOT (offerings). In particular, these instructions cover the OLAH (burnt offering), the MINCHA (meal offering), the SHELAMIM (feast peace offering), the KATAT (sin offering) and the ASHAM (guilt offering). The NEVIIM (prophets) Isaiah and Malachi both spoke of a time in which the CARBONOT would undergo an evolution. The evolution has to do with effecting HISTALSHELUT in the BEGED. Isaiah spoke of the evolution to be one from animal sacrifice to reasoning. Malachi spoke of the evolution as one that will be effected by a perfected PRIESTHOOD whose service would reveal righteousness. This revelation of righteousness is that of the hidden Supernal potential within the BEGED. Both of the perspectives of the NEVIIM disclose that teaching is the method that will effect HISTALSHELUT.

This truth (EMET) that teaching will effect the GOAL discloses that we are all born with the tools that are needful in manifestation. Those tools are the physical body, the mind and the Soul. To effect the tools, we are destined to employ the RAZ of TORAH. The discovery of the RAZ is the product of an inward journey under the direction of one who has obtained ENLIGHTENMENT. Without one who has been ENLIGHTENED, the journey will be like unto the blind leading the blind. It is sightless leadership that will perpetuate a state of dependency whereas the protege is unable to ascend out of EGOISM.
 

As aforementioned the general instructions of the CARBONOT, when understood from the RAZ of TORAH is implemented, there will be a continual state of improvement that begins. The GOAL reached will be a visible manifestation of ECHAD, Blessed be His Name, in the BEGED.
