KI TAVO
Shalom Shalom. This week’s DEVAR TORAH is KI TAVO meaning when you enter.
• Land represents crossing over MACHSOM into spirituality. The development of Godliness began with aleph development. Humanity was in state of oneness. There was no free will, only HARATZON ELYON. Falling below the barrier was so we would have free will. We have free will to choose to do Supreme Will. It is the highest level of the Soul. We are given disciplines to subject free will to the Creator’s Will. Assign all activity to the Creator. In G’MAR TIKKUN (final correction), you lose the sense of self and gain your true self. When we move with the Will that is Supreme, we complete the transformation.
• We are destined to do the impossible, but it takes tremendous sacrifice (the ego). We can do the impossible by changing our priorities/value system. It takes changing the way you think. We are establishing a government. The more focused you are, the more your thoughts will be on government. In the portion, we are told to bring our first fruits (10%) to the government. This is about prioritizing. Your actions have to be in harmony with priority. Do the right thing, not just a good thing. It is a choice. This government was made by the Higher Self. It takes the power of the Supreme Will to do the right thing.
• Yisrael was to carve the blessings & curses in stone at the mountains to the entrance of the Land. This established the standard of the nation at the borders. Our constitution, the Torah, is set at the borders. Our warfare is against ideologies that oppose Torah. The fight is in you to overcome the ego. It is established at the lowest level - set in stone- the world of ASSYAH. Follow the instruction of Torah from the ROOT language.
• We are moving up the more than 125 grades. There is no movement on the grade you are in. Movement requires you to establish godliness (mastery) in whatever level you are in. When it is established, promotion is earned. Not everyone is at the same level/grade. This is done through concentration. “Be attentive and hear.” It begins by focusing attention. Attention causes you to ascend into KETHER where commands have their origin (no words). Then you move to concentration which is the ability to hold focus. When you are able to hold concentration, you will do all the commands. It is beyond meditation. KETHER is where Voice comes from. Establish higher level of consciousness with attention to breathing up. Those who have accomplished it can teach others.
• We are in a real battle with real casualties. Identification with the ego is a sense of isolation, being an individual. To be an individual will kill you. The battle is in us. No one can fight the battle for you. You can win the battle by removing all memory. Living without memory is peace.
• The announcement of curses and blessings take form at the border. To be above the border means not living in the past. If you talk of the past, let it be fresh, new. This enables you to fight in a formidable way. With no memory, you establish your light body in Malchut. Get rid of the past. Above the barrier, there are no blessings or curses. Follow the instructions to fight the battle and keep from being a casualty. We are clothed in a vessel of memory. It goes with you wherever you go. When it come us, confess it is a memory and move on. Keep confessing until it is transformed.
