(LY) 12th Nissan
- Contemplating how the Or Ein Sof attaches to one’s soul through Torah and Mitzvahs:
- The infinite light is invested in the words of Torah and in Tzitzis and Tefillin: Prior to learning Torah or performing a Mitzvah one should also contemplate how the Or Ein Sof which encompasses all worlds and fills all worlds and is represented in the supernal will, is invested in the letters and wisdom of Torah, or in the Tzitzis and Tefillin that he is wearing.
- Drawing G-dliness to the G-dly soul: Through learning Torah, or wearing the Tallis/Tefillin, one draws the light of G-d onto oneself, into the portion of G-d above that is in the body. This causes the G-dly soul to be incorporated and nullified within the light of G-d.
- Contemplating the effect of Tefillin on the G-dly soul:
- Attaching the Chochmah and Bina of the G-dly soul with that of G-d: In detail, when wearing Tefillin one is to intend to incorporate the Chochmah and Bina of his G-dly soul within the Chochma and Bina of G-d, which is invested in the Parshiyos of Kadesh and Vehaya Ki Yeviacha.
- Dedicating one’s intellect only for G-d: This intent is expressed in action through one not using his Chochma and Bina for anything other than G-d.
- Attaching the Daas of the G-dly soul with that of G-d: Likewise, one is to intend to incorporate the Daas of his soul, which includes Chesed and Gevura, and is ones love and fear, within the Daas of G-d which includes Chesed and Gevura, which is invested in the Parshiyos of Shema and Vehaya Im Shemoa.
- Subjugating the mind: The above follows the ruling of Shulchan Aruch that the Tefillin are worn to subjugate the mind and heart.
