T182 PNC - World's Conversations During Omer Reflect Each Day's Sefirah (1 seg)
Pettek Nanach Running Commentary on Likutey Moharan
ביניים: בִּימֵי סְפִירַת הָעֹמֶר: כָּל שִׂיחוֹת הָעוֹלָם סוֹבְבוֹת אֶת הַסְּפִירָה שֶׁל אוֹתוֹ יוֹם בִּלְבַד. כָּל שִׂיחָה = בְּרֶמֶז שֶׁל אֵיכוּת אֲבָל הַסְּפִירָה. בַּעַל תְּפִיסָה: בְּהַתְכַּוְּנוּת לַסְּפִירָה, שׁוֹמֵעַ שִׂיחוֹת רְגִילוֹת מְשַׁקְּפוֹת אוֹתָהּ. הָעֹמֶר = לֹא סְפִירָה בְּלֶבֶד = מַסָּע רוּחָנִי מְקִיף דֶּרֶךְ כָּל הַסְּפִירוֹת. כָּל הָעוֹלָם מְשַׁתֵּף אַף בְּלֹא מוּדַע.
Beginner: Know that during the days of the Omer counting, all conversations in the world revolve solely around the sefirah (divine attribute) of that particular day. Every conversation that happens anywhere in the world on a given day of the Omer is, at some level, a reflection and expression of the specific sefirah of that day. The first week = chesed; the second = gevurah; etc. One who is perceptive can listen carefully to the conversations around him during the Omer period and recognize this — by attuning his awareness to the spiritual quality of each day's sefirah, he can hear in ordinary conversations the reflection of that sefirah's qualities playing out. This teaches that the Omer period is not merely a counting exercise but a comprehensive spiritual journey through all the sefirotic qualities, in which the entire world participates — even unconsciously — with every conversation. Intermediate: During Omer counting: all world's conversations revolve around the sefirah of that particular day. Every conversation = at some level reflects/expresses that day's sefirah. Perceptive person: by attuning to sefirah-quality, hears ordinary conversations reflecting that sefirah. Omer = not mere counting exercise = comprehensive spiritual journey through sefirotic qualities. Entire world participates even unconsciously.
