Rav & Me~Yin & Yang

Once I went to see the Rav.

I took a picture of the DNA Helix.

I took a image of the Sefirot.

I said to him, "Perhaps Jacobs ladder in the story was a metaphor for our
DNA Helix. And not only were the angels going up and down the ladder, but we can also traverse
our own DNA. How? Through Frequency, Vibration and Voltage.

The change allows us to navigate the ladder, as the angels showed us. So that we can come and go along the helix and "get-off" and explore the Sefirot.

He looked at me, half considering what he probably thought as nonsense, but he did not say that.
Instead he said, " This is just a finite spec within the entire realm of Torah."

"I love studying Halacha because it is everywhere," he added.

"True," I thought, but what some people need to access that specific finite possibility in order to gain beauty. It does not take away from the entire Torah, or halacha or Worlds within Worlds.

What it does is salve the soul, butter the neshama, fuel the fire of passion and our deepest belief which are our charcter attributes of being human.

Halacha is the Fence. Seferot is the canvas, paint and personality of that which learns Halacha.

In a sense the Rav and I are the Yin/Yang of Torah in human form.  He lives very wide. I live very narrow.

This conversation was at least 7 years before I am writing today.
