About this listen

 Building on the idea that G-d's creative 'speech' remains intrinsically unified with Him despite our perception of separation, this chapter explores how humans can achieve profound unity through divine directives and especially through the study of sacred wisdom. While performing divine commands acts as a channel for G-d's will, akin to bodily organs serving a soul, it doesn't achieve full oneness. These commands are indeed G-d's innermost will, for whose sake the world was created. However, engaging in the study of divine wisdom—which is G-d's wisdom and will—allows a much deeper connection. When one's thoughts and speech are immersed in this wisdom, there is no spiritual concealment, leading to a perfect unity with G-d, surpassing even the connection experienced by upper spiritual realms. This unique union, where the divine will is fully revealed in the human soul, generates a profound and elevated sense of awe. Chapters
