Part 2: Rabash. 34. TANTA [Taamim, Nekudot, Tagin, Otiot]

Reader: We are reading from the writings of Rabash, the article called TANTA.

Reading: (00:18) Rabash Record 34 TANTA [Taamim, Nekudot, Tagin, Otiot]

Taamim [flavors] means one who wants to taste a good taste in life should pay attention to his point in the heart.

Every person has a point in the heart, except it does not shine. Rather, it is like a black dot. The point in the heart is a discernment of the Nefesh [soul] of Kedusha [holiness], whose nature is a vessel of bestowal.

However, she is in a state of Shechina [Divinity] in the dust, meaning that a person regards her as nothing. Instead, to him she is as important as dust. This is called Nekudot [dots/points].

The solution is to increase her importance and make its importance as Tagin [crowns], like a “Crown on his head.” That is, instead of being dust, as before, he should raise her importance to be as a Keter [crown] on his head.

At that time, the Nefesh of Kedusha expands in Otiot [letters], meaning in the Guf [body], for the Guf is called Otiot. In other words, the Kedusha spreads from potential to actual, called Otiot and Guf.

Rereading: (02:07) Rabash Record 34 TANTA [Taamim, Nekudot, Tagin, Otiot]

At that time, the Nefesh of Kedusha expands in Otiot [letters], meaning in the Guf [body], for the Guf is called Otiot. In other words, the Kedusha spreads from potential to actual, called Otiot and Guf.

M. Laitman: All right? Well?.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (03:58) What does it mean to pay attention to his point in the heart?

M. Laitman: The point in the heart is the root of the holy soul that would later clothe a man's body, and then he'll feel it.

Student: I now have in my day today a way to pay attention to my point in the heart?

M. Laitman: You have to make sure that this point develops and then reveals itself.

Student: So, it's still unclear. When I'm reading that there's a certain state called Shechina in the dust, so I'm trying to understand, I'm trying to feel what the dust is. Maybe I'm lower than the dust, because if I'd feel dust, then I'd feel something.

M. Laitman: Yes. A man's heart means his desire, let’s put it that way. So, your heart, what is it filled with?

Student: It seeks the place that we're speaking about, which is the point of love. That desire for connection, for friends, for what he's grateful for.

M. Laitman: Yes, so here he says that man attains Taamim, Nekudot, Tagin, Otiot, and arranges them within himself and thus scrutinizes the Yud, Hey, Vav, Hey, the name of the Creator. That's what he's got.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (06:26) It is written in relation to the point in the heart that it's in a state of Shechina in the dust, meaning that a person regards her as nothing, meaning that she is as important as dust, and that is called Nekudot. Why is the point in the heart as important as dust, and that's called Nekudot?

M. Laitman: In the meantime, it doesn't give a person any quality, it doesn't change anything in him, it's a black point.

Student: Nekudot usually gives us some view of what's happening.

M. Laitman: Yes, I understand, of course. But that's what we call Nekudot, dot, or point.

Student: Meaning you could say that the point, a Nekudot gives you a direction through darkness?

M. Laitman: It doesn't give any direction, it's a point. It's a black point, round, and with almost zero space, volume.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (07:52) It's a very nice depiction of the Ta'amim, Nekudot, Tagin, Otiot, more than what we usually... How do we turn Nekudot to Tagin? What turns a Nekuda, a point, to suddenly be a crown on his head?

M. Laitman: Because a point is something that's very low, and that's in the sense of Shechina Shechina Bah Afar, the Shechina in the dust. Tagin is already something that's great. It is one's attainment, and understanding, and adhesion with the Creator. From all perspectives, Tagin, the crowns are something that is barely attained. What's attained is an illumination that expands from the Rosh to the Guf. That's it.

Student: How does the point become a tag? What happens between them?

M. Laitman: The fact that we raise that point above our head is like we talked about a lot, whereas where there was the Keter in the lower world becomes the Malchut in the higher up world. And that's how it is, where a person understands that what is being revealed in him now is revealed out of from the fact that the Malchut is included and nullified according to her current state and therefore receives an ascent.

Student: So, it's the same deficiency, the same point, he just values it differently? He sees it differently?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (10:58) Not only is the point in the heart not shining, but it's dark, it's black. So, it takes him to the lowest place, into the will to receive, it's in the filth. So, what should we see from this? What should we take from it?

M. Laitman: The ability to be revealed in it, as there's a time that she's included in it and right now, so she discovers that, she discovers her vessels according to equivalence with Him. That is, there are no more in the sense of the will to receive but if she reaches Tagin let's say, then she can already illuminate in the whole vessel.

Student: When a person is immersed in, so deep in his will to receive, because it draws it into there, so what should he pay attention in that place he's in?

M. Laitman: That she's leading him to a field that the Creator has blessed. That he can, in these vessels that are being revealed in him, these dark, black vessels, through his effort, they can shine.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (12:58) The way it helped, we read this yesterday in the Ten and we asked the question, how to raise this point of dust to the Keter. There were different answers, so the first question we said, we'll ask you how to do it. The second that came out from that, is maybe to raise this point to the center of the Ten and should each one have a different way to do it? How do you raise that point?

M. Laitman: If you were to bring the point as the center of the Ten, and you seemingly all need to raise it, then you will enter into it the spirit of life.

Student: As a Ten?

M. Laitman: Yes, and everything will work out.

Question (Rehovot): (14:15) The word Ta'amim, tastes, it seems very important in our life because as children, we put everything into our mouth to taste it. Is the meaning here to this type of taste, or a meaning, or both?

M. Laitman: However, you want. Think it this way, think it that way, and then scrutinize it.

Question (ITA 1): (15:09) What does it mean to raise the black point in the heart, meaning to always yearn to the Creator, to always yearn to the light endlessly?

M. Laitman: Yes, yes, try.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (15:42) To pay attention to a point is to pay attention to the friend's points?

M. Laitman: Are you asking about the work in the group?

Student: Of course. I have nothing to look at my point. From my point, I'm here already.

M. Laitman: That's also a question. The friend's points, if you want to connect them together to the point of the common vessel, that's work. It's not simple. You also need to connect them by something that's common.

Student: Yes, common.

M. Laitman: Something common that's shared between them.

Student: So, the common work is to look at the friend's points and gather them into one point, and that's where that upper force will be revealed?

M. Laitman: Yes, so you need to annul more and more.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (17:12) The Ta'amim and Nekudot, the tastes and points are like a result of the records of Tagim and Otiot.

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: So, through those records, should we reach the Ta'amim and Nekudot? That is the purpose.

M. Laitman: But not from the previous Partzuf, but rather from their Partzuf.

Student: From the current Partzuf, we have to reach who gave birth to them.

M. Laitman: Yes.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (17:58) Tag is a place?

M. Laitman: Tag is not a place. Tag is a sign.

Student: A sign for the light that went into it? A result?

M. Laitman: Yes. Tag, he says it's like a tag on his head, like a mark on his head, or something on his head.

Student: That's a decision of the vessel? Is it an action of the vessel?

M. Laitman: Beforehand, it was a place of dust, and now it's already upon his head.

Student: There's a place for another action?

M. Laitman: No, to the action that was. There was an action that was at zero, truly. He considered it as waste, as nothing, as zero, and he raised it above his head.

Student: When we already received the letters, so it's a result of the tag?

M. Laitman: Yes. Meaning that... Well, it will be clarified. Yes.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (19:31) When he says that all people have a point in the heart, so what does he mean all people?

M. Laitman: Every person has a point in the heart.

Student: Also, a person on the street has it?

M. Laitman: In every person.

Student: So, what happens for it to shine? He calls it holiness, a Nefesh of holiness. It's only a discernment. That is the seed to all of the development, if I understand?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: How to illuminate this point where it's dormant in people, or only the Creator awakens it?

M. Laitman: Only the Creator can awaken it, of course. But we need to see what we need to do with this. Because actually, Tanta is seemingly something that's in our hands. We need to try to understand it and see how we work with it.

Student: So, it's all his inner point that brought him here?

M. Laitman: Well, for everyone, yes.

Student: Now, can I ask another question about a different topic? I was never religious, but when I had my Bar Mitzvah, so the Ta'amim, the signs that are above the letters, they were called the Ta'amim, the tastes but they were also Tagim, they were above the letters. They showed you how to sing it. Can we say that the Tagim become Ta'amim through those signs?

M. Laitman: Leave that.

Student: Not connected?

M. Laitman: No.
