This is the second class in a series on the Maamar Yom Tov Shel Rosh Hashanah said by the Alter Rebbe for Rosh Hashanah 5571, September 29, 1810, which came out on Shabbos.
This class was presented by Rabbi YY Jacobson on Wednesday, 20 Elul, 5786, Sep. 2, 2026, at Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim in Monsey, NY.
The class delves deeper into the two states of consciousness, Igulim and Yosher. Where we are submerged in the source, like the photon in the sun, the stop in the ocean, and the fetus in the womb, to where we emerge as "something," and the source turns into "no-thing."
We discuss why Moshe did not want to be a leader, and why so severe a penalty for expressing a halacha in front of your Rebbe.
