054 Tanya Shvat 13 ~ m062 Shvat 23
Questions for today:
I can learn what I am instructed to, and I can do what I am told, but my emotions are human. How can I connect to the Creator on a personal level?
Today we learn about a remarkable gift that the Creator gives us, in relation to the relationship that we can have with the Creator.
We've been studying the unity that's possible when we participate in the creator's innermost desire, through doing G-d's commandments and delving into G-d's intellect through the Torah.
The depth of that connection also has an entirely different dimension. Our relationship with the Creator is not just through thought, speech, and action - it's also an emotional one as well.
Typically, our emotions can only get involved with things that they relate to, on their realm.
Therefore, when the Creator lends the Creator's innermost thoughts, enabling us to intertwine our intellect with the Creator's intellect and become united on that level, this gives us a framework to have an emotional relationship with the Creator on that supernal level as well.
Tanya book 1, ch23 pt 6
By gifting us with the possibility to unite with the Creator on a supernal level, G-d creates a possibility for us to have an emotional relationship on that supernal level as well
