L'homme À La Recherche De Sa Sagesse L'Homme à la recherche de sa Sagesse BATICLE Michaël Pour connaître la sagesse et l'instruction, Pour comprendre les paroles de l'intelligence; Pour recevoir des leçons de bon sens, De justice, d'équité et de droiture; Pour donner aux simples du discernement, Au jeune homme de la connaissance et de la réflexion. Que le sage écoute, et il augmentera son savoir, Et celui qui est intelligent acquerra de l'habileté, Car c'est une couronne de grâce pour ta tête, Et une parure pour ton cou. ( Proverbe 1 ) Alors tu comprendras la justice, l'équité, La droiture, toutes les routes qui mènent au bien. Car la sagesse viendra dans ton cœur, Et la connaissance fera les délices de ton âme; La réflexion veillera sur toi, L'intelligence te gardera, ( Proverbe 2 ) La sagesse ne crie-t-elle pas? L'intelligence n'élève-t-elle pas sa voix? A moi les conseils, gage de succès; je suis l'intelligence, et la force est mon attribut. Moi, la sagesse, j'ai pour demeure le discernement, Et je possède la science de la réflexion. L'Eternel m'a créée la première de ses œuvres, Avant ses œuvres les plus anciennes. J'ai été établie depuis l'éternité, Dès le commencement, avant l'origine de la terre. Je fus enfantée quand il n'y avait point d'abîmes, Point de sources chargées d'eaux; Avant que les montagnes soient affermies, Avant que les collines existent, je fus enfantée; Il n'avait encore fait ni la terre, ni les campagnes, Ni le premier atome de la poussière du monde. Lorsqu'il disposa les cieux, j'étais là; Lorsqu'il traça un cercle à la surface de l'abîme, Lorsqu'il fixa les nuages en haut, Et que les sources de l'abîme jaillirent avec force, Lorsqu'il donna une limite à la mer, Pour que les eaux n'en franchissent pas les bords, Lorsqu'il posa les fondements de la terre, J'étais à l'œuvre auprès de lui, Et je faisais tous les jours ses délices, Jouant sans cesse en sa présence, Jouant sur le globe de sa terre, Et trouvant mon bonheur parmi les fils de l'homme. Mais qui me manque se perd lui-même: me haïr, c'est aimer la mort! ( Proverbe 8 ) L'oreille attentive aux réprimandes qui mènent à la vie Fait son séjour au milieu des sages. Celui qui rejette la correction méprise son âme, Mais celui qui écoute la réprimande acquiert l'intelligence. La crainte de l'Eternel enseigne la sagesse, Et l'humilité précède la gloire. ( Proverbe 15 ) Celui qui réfléchit sur les choses trouve le bonheur, Et celui qui se confie en l'Eternel est heureux. Celui qui est sage de cœur est appelé intelligent, Et la douceur des lèvres augmente le savoir. Celui qui est sage de cœur manifeste la sagesse par sa bouche, Et l'accroissement de son savoir paraît sur ses lèvres. Les paroles agréables sont un rayon de miel, Douces pour l'âme et salutaires pour le corps. ( Proverbe 16 ) L'Homme à la recherche de sa Sagesse 2 BATICLE Michaël Introduction S'il y a bien une chose que l'homme a toujours recherché, ce sont ses origines... nous sommes sur cette planète depuis déjà longtemps mais si chacun se souvient et transmet ses connaissances, comment faire pour que tous puisse l'acquérir, la voix ? l'écriture ? les traces du passé ? Dans beaucoup de domaine, les seules choses persistantes sont celles ou le nombres de personnes continuent de l'utiliser parce qu'ils s'en souviennent, la mémoire... sinon c'est la conservation du lieu, de l'objet, de l'enseignement en question ... Nous avons utilisé au fil des millénaires multiples manières de faire passer des informations recueillies par des témoins d'observations qui ont parfois pris beaucoup de temps et qui ont souhaité le conserver pour le transmettre et bien sur continuer de comprendre si cela est ponctuel ou c'est une loi qui s'appliquera toujours ... Petit je n'ai jamais compris ce qu'était la religion, à quoi sert elle ? nous raconter une belle histoire, pâques, noël sont des exemples de fêtes mais des légendes, on en a raconter sur tous les continents, à toutes les époques, à se demander comment ces histoires se sont propagées et qui était les personnes chargées de conter ces mémoires ... Mais il y a une observation qui m'a toujours choqué, c'est que ces livres qui sont les fondations de cette religion perdure ? Tous le monde comprend il le même message et comment chacun l'applique dans la vie ? Pourquoi il y a t'il tant de différence ? chacun ne comprend t'il pas la même chose ? Si l'enseignement était réservé à des initiés, personne de connaissance et de savoir, l'apprentissage se fait comment ? quelle méthode a été utilisé ? S'il existe une particularité chez beaucoup d'entre nous animaux, c'est notre pouvoir de communication, stratégie qui nous a permis de survivre par un outil, le son... et c'est en partie de cette constatation qu'a débuté ma réflexion pour cheminer dans l'origine du langage. J'ai appris au fil de chaque découverte que rien n'est anodin dans l'exploitation de ce raisonnement de cet Homme, Hominidé, espèce qui pour l'heure est présente sur cette planète et que chaque pas le rapproche jour en jour d'un niveau supérieur de compréhension, à savoir répondre à la question, dans quel monde vis t'on ? quelle sont les lois qui régissent ce monde ou moi, l'homme je vis ... Il existe pourtant une question qui dans le passé a été murement réfléchi mais qui aujourd'hui se perd, bien qu'il faille bientôt y revenir, qui suis je ? comment je fonctionne ? répondre à cette question... Pourquoi je fais tous ces choix dans ma vie ? Puis je faire autrement ? L'homme , depuis tous temps n'a eu cesse que de vivre pour préserver son espèce, bâtir pour se protéger, conserver ses biens, sa mémoire, obtenir toujours plus grâces aux techniques de chasse, production. Il devra bientôt répondre aux conséquences de ces envies primaires, quand il n'y aura plus de matière qu'il ne pourra plus exploiter ou aucune menace qu'il n'aura plus à affronter si ce n'est de lui même. Sa gourmandise, sa méthode de pensée dans une planète où nous sommes identique, dans le même bateau... Noé arrivera t'il à toucher terre avant que l'arche coule ? L'Homme repart sur la plus ancienne des routes déjà empruntée, la Sagesse ... L'Homme à la recherche de sa Sagesse 3 BATICLE Michaël Sommaire 1. L'aleph Bet 2.

    iii ▶ THE BRESLOV SIDDUR Publisher’s Preface ur Sages call prayer the “service of the heart” (Ta’anit 2a). OPrayer is an opportunity to focus on ourselves — to look deep into our hearts and discover our true aches and pains, our real joys and goals. Prayer helps us recognize who we are, and assess our relationship with God. Through prayer, we are not spectators to life but actual participants, because we can involve our whole heart and soul in connecting to our Creator. Is that what prayer means to you? Or is it little more than rote recital, imparting little meaning or excitement? Your passport to a world of meaning, personal fulfillment and connection is the siddur, the compilation of prayers formulated by the Men of the Great Assembly during the Second Temple era. These sages were blessed with ruach ha-kodesh (Divine inspiration) to compose prayers that fly straight to their mark — both on our hearts and in the heavenly realms. In fact, says the ARI, every day the morning prayers take us on a spiritual ascent, traversing the Four Worlds described in Kabbalah: the Worlds of Asiyah (Action), Yetzirah (Formation), Beriyah (Creation), and Atzilut (Nearness). We begin the morning service by reciting the sacrificial offerings, which correspond to the lowest of the worlds, the World of Asiyah. Then we proceed to the next higher world, that of Yetzirah (the angelic world), when we recite the Pesukey d’Zimra (Verses of Praise). From there we ascend to the World of Beriyah (the World of the Throne of God), paralleling the Shma and its blessings.

  • Torah 207 Likutei Mehoran Final
    Likutei Mehoran 207 and the Sweetening of Gevurot Torah 207 Likutei Mehoran Strung between Orthodoxy and Heresy All words are the aspect of Gevurot, as it is written: “And of your might (gevurot) they will speak,” and as it is written in the [Lurianic] writings, that the five Gevurot that are in Da’at break through and emerge in the mouth, to make the five articulators. It comes out that all words are the aspect of Gevurot. Now, these need to be mitigated, which happens by studying Torah and speaking good words. Through this, the words, which are the aspect of the Gevurot, are “sweetened.” Rebbe Nachman articulates a theology of the role of the Zadik in sweetening harsh divine judgments. He does not question why they emerge but accepts the fact that at times “dinim” and “gevurot” emerge from the Sefira of Divine Daas….a hidden sefirah meant to balance and or integrate the two opposing divine archetypes of Chesed and gevurah, kindness and judgment. When out of balance an efflux of dinim emerge into this world and need “sweetening” by the leaders of the generation (presumably the talmidei chachamim) or a Zadik who through his own suffering, takes on these gevurot. If he, or they however fail, through lack of merit or even sin, then these leaders become the very mouthpiece of the harsh gevurot and unleash them into the world only adding insult to injury. They then speak harshly about the Zadik of the generation and he must accept the insult with equanimity or even through his own death, in order to finally sweeten these judgments.

  • The Sefirot: a Hasidic Perspective on the Spiritual Journey
    The Sefirot: A Hasidic Perspective on the Spiritual Journey by Yaacov David Shulman (c) 2004Yaacov David Shulman 6022 Highgate Drive Baltimore, MD 21215 (410) 358-8771 [email protected] 3 The Sefirot INTRODUCTION Elijah began to expound: “Master of the world, You are one, and beyond all accounting. “You are higher than the highest, more hidden than the most hidden. “No thought can grasp You at all” (Patach Eliyahu). Beyond all universes, beyond all thought, beyond all conception, is the one primal Being Whom we call God. “The true nature of this Being,” teaches Rabbi Moshe Chaim Luzzatto, “cannot be understood by anyone besides Him. All that is known about Him is that He is totally perfect” (Derech Hashem 1:2). The Jewish mystical tradition teaches that in order to create the many planes of being that culminated in our world, God brought into being ten sefirot, or vessels. These sefirot consecutively filtered God’s spiritual light so that universes separate from Him could emerge. In this way, God could bestow love on others. He could be 4 The Sefirot revealed to others as a giving king (cf. Likutei Halachot, Yoreh Deah, Tolaim 4:5). These ten sefirot are still active, for God continues to recreate all of creation at every moment. The pattern of the ten sefirot exists on many levels. Every object and every process in the world is a working through of the energies of the sefirot. Every Jewish practice and holiday presents a theater for the energies of the sefirot to flow. In addition, like an infinite hologram, each sefirah contains within it all the other sefirot (LH, Hoshen Mishpat, Geneivah 4:6).

  • Os Segredos Do Patach Eliyahu Texto: Zion Nefesh Tradução: Nícolas B
    ָ פּ ַ ת ח ֵ א ִ ל ָ יּ ה וּ - Elias Abriu Os Segredos do Patach Eliyahu Texto: Zion Nefesh Tradução: Nícolas B. Bággio Elias abriu e disse, Mestre dos mundos, você é único e nunca será contado (porque não há ninguém como você) você é o Celeste dos celestes, oculto de todos os segredos e não há pensamento algum que possa captar toda sua essência. É importante entender que esta introdução ao Tikunei Zohar é a abertura da Luz do Zohar. Elias tem as chaves para os mundos superiores e inferiores. Foi-lhe dada a permissão para ajudar e ensinar Rabbi Shimon e seu filho os segredos do sistema espiritual que regem todos os aspectos da existência. Elias é Pinchas, o neto de Aharon que foi o primeiro sacerdote, e como sacerdote ele tem o poder de abrir as portas de Binah para trazer Luz de Chochmah sustentando nosso mundo. "Elias abriu" tem a energia especial de uma chave espiritual. Quando lemos ou escaneamos esta meditação, ela nos ajuda a abrir os canais espirituais que podem manifestar-se espiritualmente e materialmente. É bom escanear todas as manhãs, quando você acordar e se lavar, antes do amanhecer. Também é bom escanear 60 minutos depois do por do Sol, no Sábado a noite, que é o início da nova semana. "Elias abriu" nos conecta com o infinito e com todas as Sefirot. Ele começa pelo reconhecimento dos mestres dos mundos que é o Infinito. Abençoado seja Ele.
