Hebrew translation:
111. וּלְעוֹלָם לֹא מַלְקֶה צַדִּיק, אֶלָּא כְּדֵי לָתֵת רְפוּאָה לַדּוֹר וּלְכַפֵּר עֲלֵיהֶם, (וְסוֹד זֶה צַדִּיק וְרַע לוֹ) שֶׁזֶּה נוֹחַ לַצַּד הָאַחֵר שֶׁהַדִּין שׁוֹלֵט (לִשְׁלֹט) עַל הַצַּדִּיק יוֹתֵר מֵהַכֹּל, שֶׁלֹּא חוֹשֵׁשׁ אָז לְכָל הָעוֹלָם וְלֹא מַשְׁגִּיחַ בָּהֶם מֵהַשִּׂמְחָה שֶׁהוּא שׁוֹלֵט עָלָיו. וְאוֹתוֹ צַדִּיק זוֹכֶה לְשִׁלְטוֹן עֶלְיוֹן בָּעוֹלָם הַזֶּה וּבָעוֹלָם הַבָּא. צַדִּיק וְטוֹב לוֹ, שֶׁלֹּא חוֹשֵׁשׁ הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא לְכַפֵּר עַל הָעוֹלָם.
112. אָמַרְתִּי לוֹ, אִלּוּ לֹא הָיוּ בִּזְמַן אֶחָד – יָפֶה. אֲבָל כָּאן יֵשׁ צַדִּיק, וְכָאן יֵשׁ צַדִּיק. לָזֶה יֵשׁ מַחֲלוֹת, וְלָזֶה יֵשׁ אֶת כָּל טוֹב הָעוֹלָם. אָמַר לִי, בְּאֶחָד מֵהֶם אוֹ בִשְׁנַיִם מַסְפִּיק, שֶׁהַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא לֹא רוֹצֶה לְהַלְקוֹת הַכֹּל, (ס”א כָּל עוֹד) כְּמוֹ שֶׁלֹּא צָרִיךְ אֶלָּא זְרוֹעַ אַחַת לְהַלְקוֹת וּלְהַקִּיז לָתֵת רְפוּאָה לְכָל הָאֵיבָרִים. גַּם כָּאן, בְּצַדִּיק אֶחָד מַסְפִּיק.
Pinchas 110-112
Isaiah 53:5
“ וְהוּא מְחֹלָל מִפְּשָׁעֵנוּ, מְדֻכָּא מֵעֲוֹנֹתֵינוּ; מוּסַר שְׁלוֹמֵנוּ עָלָיו, וּבַחֲבֻרָתוֹ נִרְפָּא-לָנוּ. ”
“But he (The righteous, Tzaddik) was wounded because of our transgressions, he was crushed because of our iniquities: the chastisement of our welfare was upon him, and with his stripes we were healed. ”
This verse testifies that by the merit of the righteous we are healed. The Zohar tells us that we are all parts of one body. The healer makes incision for bloodletting in order to release the negativity and bring healing to the whole body. Similarly God uses the Tzaddikim (righteous) for the same purpose to heal the world.
Ecclesiastes 8:14
“ יֶשׁ-הֶבֶל, אֲשֶׁר נַעֲשָׂה עַל-הָאָרֶץ, אֲשֶׁר יֵשׁ צַדִּיקִים אֲשֶׁר מַגִּיעַ אֲלֵהֶם כְּמַעֲשֵׂה הָרְשָׁעִים, וְיֵשׁ רְשָׁעִים שֶׁמַּגִּיעַ אֲלֵהֶם כְּמַעֲשֵׂה הַצַּדִּיקִים: אָמַרְתִּי, שֶׁגַּם-זֶה הָבֶל.”
“There is a vanity which is done upon the earth: that there are righteous men, unto whom it happeneth according to the work of the wicked; again, there are wicked men, to whom it happeneth according to the work of the righteous–I said that this also is vanity.”
The aspect of “Righteous and suffers“ is not new and the Zohar explains it to us.
Sometimes the suffering or death of one Tzadik is enough to balance the world. Some of them may suffer through their entire life time to protect the world from destruction and the rest of the righteous people are left to continue their work without pain.
Pain or gain is not a consideration for them when they are doing the work.

Grateful,
So the perception through DZ is:
- every day of the Life is grace and mercy in the realm of negativity
Negativity as absolute opponent of every kind of certainty, peace, joy that is tuned with
the sorruounding and on some neatly rhytm of unification through some ceremonies
that sages and wisdom teaching us.
- But this path is always under the pressure of some turbulences. Rhytm is disoriented.
Changes appeared that are making system not stable. So people are making islands
of some stability and division is fortificated. These islands are giving illussion of peace and certainty because seeds of instability are already there. Every division is already
prescription for new division.
- Through this process there are souls and creatures carrying this souls that just live. Just accept everything? Stable inside? Is this their personal posture or this is also blessing from
outside of the world. Their living and their internal balance is under the pressure of the
continually attacks. And they still preserve the inner balance?
- so the sorrounding is more and more focusing against the righteous ?
- If I call this common spiritual entity of the tool/some spirit/something that is spreading
without touch but through common past, desires/through common weaknesses let call this spiritual entity NEGATIVITY.
- Negativity is spreading around , grow and in next moment get weaker and again
- it is like living organism
- it uses entry point on each of us -- like some plaques on our souls where it can be connected like some microorganism. Microorganism for example some strains of bacteria or yeast can live individually and attack entry points of other cells , but can also live like
some tissue -- like biofilm and move limited around on some surface and change the behavoiur of the host in waves ( Attention in waves ).
- this negativity in its desire ( that is normal obvious desire in nature -- what about in spiritual realm ?) is using every possible entry point on hosts ( souls and their body and mind attributes -- like desires, posessions material, intelectual desires, emotional desires, their unfulfillments ) to intesify some waves that are producing turbulences in order and normal rhytm. Bewcause that rhytm of certainty and peace already carries some entry points of imbalancing.
So this wandering and spreading entity ( like some slime organism that is flowing but has function ) negativity is in constant confrontation with….But sometimes is collapsing into smaller organism, sometimes is spreaded around. Side effect of this is that hosts which are attacked are fighting against each other. After all we know the concept of autoimmunity in the human microbiology, when body is turning against itself.
The organism is turning to itself. We do not know who will be the next.
Even more organisms/hosts that are using various wisdom and basic values/laws/covenants can use in their weaknesses those same laws, covenants against themselves. Same laws that provided basis of stabilty can in some zealousy be focused against each other. System came out of balance. Each of those orgainsms is given here and there some autonomy to overcome some imbalance and this is new seeds for potential new confrontation spread around.
In this constant battle beings are in battle to each other. Maybe they even use their own laws…Could be in that context put also the use and abandoning of various belief systems
mentioned in comments in previous DZ and that are constant seed of division on DZ that is comming out from time to time: discussions about zealosy in Christianity, Islam, divison on non-Jews, …other nations…those seem to be fortification of the negativities i ndaily Life when we use smaller laws turning into the direction to neglect or overlook each other or even more exclude or afraid of the energy. Constant battle in each of us.
For the laws it would be expected that they can not be used as autoimmunity tool. Turn against them selves. But negativity through history show us perception that all books were used to turn against themselves.
Was that the idea why Zohar was hided through history so the negativity slime had no chance ( no feeding space ) to contaminate Zohar with activities of turning against themselves who are basing ….To have rising star when other stars are more and more in the process of ?
We do not speak about the words and meaning of the laws but side effects they are producing? Entry points, when situation is not perfect. The aim suppose to be to provide us with the internal power of managing balance on the way of correction.
So what are weaknesses , entry points for Zohar students and knowledge wisdom authorities , other people so they can be used as entry point for slime negativity connect to?
One more interesting question?
So slime negativity like some clouds that is spreading ( sometimes even producing in us the illusion of some laws that should be followed -- like Golden Calf example but let us focus in daily Life ) is like some net between us. So righteous people ? Who is righteous…how do we know he is righteous, ? We do not know. Since that net is like a fog that is disorienting us. What about the words, intentions of some leader. He may be righteous but the net between his people and him is making the cloud of misunderstanding, produce side effects of chaos. So in some moment righteous person is showing the symptoms of corrupted being but he …Could he be the highest beneficial for this group. And this is not only about leaders, even in daily life like groups, smaller groups, …everywhere where we have common desire, interest, …
So we are already in the process of division but it is temporary common desire that is keeping us together and makes us together? Battles us make us …
So to overcome that net is to go above desires that are temporarily tools ,…?
But net is in constant learning process. From every weakening is learning something for next wave of attack and producing another cloud of fog of misunderstandings, division, and side effects are exclusion, new divisions, new disconnected organisms that are left out there on open space with own entry points for the Light …?
So when listening the sentence: Zohar that is providing the protection and constant Light attraction for such material survival that is providing the correction for the one and his important ones we are talking as new opportunity for the negativity to learn from our weaknesses when accepting Zohar?
But Zohar is code book for Torah. Could be this observed that this as just another opportunity because the first opportunity was not used or the opportunity was wasted or corrupted ?
No pain …no gain ….
Shabat shalom
Rodesh tov
Love
Sarah
If sleep is so close to death, what does snoring mean? Beside a sleepless night for the spouse.
Thank you Zion. This is the principle what Christians have used to declare that Jesus died
to save us from our sins. I guess he was just one of many. Shabbat Shalom & Chodesh Tov.
But there is much more to feel than only concept of righteousness through Jesus’s death and his resurrection revealing through New Testament.
Concept of love.
It seems that from time to time that net of negativity and complexity in which previous belief systems are developing there is the need for some reset -- cleaning the space.
From time to time the spiritual systems manifestations through teachings are becomming more and more complex, producing elite classes , secrets known only to small groups, coding of coded secrets. Revelations through small groups or through number for persons. Than each person , group developing own concept and complex systems of prescribed statements of meditations, prayers just to establish pure and penetrative channel to the divinity for our sincere communication to higher worlds. What DZ thaught ( at least myself ) that my soul suppose to be that channel. And the first step is to clean communication with my soul. This way the one is able to understand correction and this way drive the limitations/restrictions, sharing the manifested potentials and receiving for activating the potentials.
What Is felt through Jesus message now after absorption of DZ and Kabbalah is that Jesus offered us on basis of G-D’s love to us and manifested also through Jesus there is no need for such complexity, for tones of bureacracy in belief systems and spiritual tools support. That there can be simple way based on love and manifestation of the love between us. Feeling Jesus as not grabbing for power even that power is accesible and give up of the power. So if power is not neccessary there is no need for complexity of the spiritual system presentation through Sefirots. But this demands giving up of current positions and come on common minimal denominator. Giving up of positions although they were battled through personal hard work and battle. But now situation this situation is not anymore supporting that state of power. Balance is not possible to maintained. So giving up in some of the members of the spiritual commuity is necessary. Like he gave up of the power we can. And nothing will happen to us that would not be in our beneficial. So what we are doing through complex spiritual growth through studying ? To give up of power ?
Does the Tzaddik understand the reason for his suffering? And would this happen to one of the 36 in the world or are there others as well? Thanks, Zion! And chodesh tov!
The Tzaddik understand the reasons and accept his sufferings without a question. If he has a small doubt then he is not a Tzaddik. A good spiritual person maybe but not a Tzaddik.
The 36 righteous are the aspect of the head (36 Tzaddikim) of the head (all other tzaddikim) of the body (all Israelites souls). If they suffer then we (the entire world) are in dangerous state. As we are coming closer to the Final Redemption it means that we elevated most (out of 288) of the sparks of light related to the global Tikkun. Most of what left is concentrated negative that is hard to remove. the last 32 sparks (320-288) will be removed by God when Mashiach rules the world.
Chodesh Tov.
Why would God create this system of ‘vanity’, where things happen in opposition to logic? Doesn’t the Zohar say that this world is ruled by cause and effect?
This system is contrary to human nature. If you allow an innocent man to be condemned for the sins of a murderer and he gets a life sentence for example, is that really going to make the guilty man repent? Anyway, thank you and have a good weekend.
The system of cause and effect is complicated and it may looks like contrary to human nature but it was designed this way to give us opportunity to decipher the code and find the treasure that is immortality. To achieve that we must die.
Why do we put murderers and other criminals into criminal university (prisons) for a while then they come back to hurt us? Shouldn’t we just eliminate them or let us suffer, pay high taxes to develop better prisons or programs to stop crimes form the beginning.
We can look at the righteous people as the ones that get out of prison because of good behavior. They make good example for others to correct themselves.
We should all correct ourselves and wait for the quick release.
Using the analogy of the Matrix (the movie)
The blue pill keeps you in prison and life in the illusionary world that at the end your body is consumed to provide energy for the dark side. The red pill gets you out and on the path to have full control over the world that what you see is not real. You will learn to dodge bullets and fly. The righteous people choose the red pill.
What would you choose?
Zion, I think most people would choose the red pill after seeing what the machines were doing to them. Only those who prefer oblivion and supposed ease would choose to continue as slaves.
My point was that I can’t understand how God who is perfectly just would allow the righteous to suffer for the wicked. Because people only change when the consequences of their sins catch up with them and cause them pain.
Hmmm very profound discussion between Chris and Zion, raised new questions.
The righteous suffering as one of the indications of righteous one and closing some period of time ( negativity intensitivity )?
But is not on the righteous one not to ask the question why, how, when but just accept?
What about the attacks where one division is made to form another unity in less groups should not they be revealed or put ahead just to provide free decision?
Remembering the words of the head of the company where I work: With us will stay only those that are of same energy. And from that moment sensing more and more reasons for measuring each other, for closing the gates of creativity…Is that mean I am under the influence of negativity because the righteous action would not be to ask the question but accept. Since questions are forming percpetions.
Another example is rising so called metric companies that provide their business on metric of others using IT technologies. No real value, no added value in the product but measing others and their behaviour. Remembering in tha appartment where I live in block of appartments we measure the costs for spending water and central heating on the level of whole block. Now measuring companies are measuring our behaviour on individual level. And aditional costs had to be added for measuring companies and sensors so that people give up of their trust in each other and accepting each one in his peculiarity as he is. Now it has to be measured and aditional division under the execuse to diminish costs. But the fact if we sum up the costs of living are higher because aditional maintainined processes are involved for measuring , for observing -- FOR DIVISION ? Those processes do not produce food, do not establish something new? Do they produce ay values that could be manifestation of the Light?
But everything under the execuse to be comparable with something somewhere?
So are the righteous ones not measured, not observed, not questionable?
And some of the those characteristics should be accepted in our Life to follow the correction and not ask for the inconsistencies during transformations or transit periods?
But all the time we talk about the negativity entity that manifests mainly in divisions? But divisions could be also regrouping to cut some pieces ( those are real humans and other beings -- animals , plants on the surfaces we destroy, forests, )?
Hi Zion, what’s your mind on this article, can be related to what you explained here?
Shavua tov
http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4330889,00.html
This article refer to what is the Holy Ari calls “תיקון שלג” “Snow correction”. It correct the sins at the level of Yessod.
Numerical value of snow is 333 and the digits add to 9 as the level of Yessod that is the ninth sefirah.
The letter א that is the source of light and in its spelled form אלף the numerical value is 111.
3 times א equal 333 as ‘snow’.
To draw light and make the correction we stand fully naked in the snow and for each letter in the set below (9 times)
אלף
אלף
אלף
We fall down to the snow and role once and rise again.
The outcome is the with that connection we connect to the verse in
Isaiah 1:18 “Though your sins be as scarlet, They shall be as white as snow”
Those comments initiate warm in the heart.
Remembering days of snow ( when a lot of snow ) as exciting.
But when amounts of snow are such that technology is not able to managed.
Becuause those are easier ways of people to get togethtoer. To leave cars and all other tools that provide stress and divison at parkings, garagages. Nature is preventing the daily stress rhytm that are sourced from outside( negativity ???). People are talking and get each other greetings on the streetu while meeting. People are more focused on each other. Guess It is some blessings with results that would otherwise should be forced with natural catastrophes. People are going out and together cleaning the yards, paths for walking…Also sport trainings in mountains in deep snow are more cleansing and more joined with nature and peace of the mountain and forest. But the climate changes are also diminishing this possibility of yearly cleansing of our souls. Nature gave us opportunity. Guess it has to do because Winter Ski tourism initiated the crime on nature with cutting the trees for Winter Ski Tourism and import the disorder and unrest to the last islands of peace animals still head? So nature is showing and teaching people where to focus. So it seems it is the challenge to find another path of uniting and getting that cleansing joy of those few days in heavy snowing? It is blessing …It is interesting that for someone it could be punishment. Maybe for the people who are not used to switch to the slower rhytm where there was more time for non-formal communication. While cleaning the yards in front of block of flats or in front of factories or instittuions when technology could not any more, people communicated, individuals that did not communicate as others could meditate on the best , praying during the physical work and that brought them peace and being good worker. Maybe some of them during physical work when cleansing the snow resolve some problem like chess problem or math problem for study exam. It was the opportunity to repeat on Torah verses during work. And this way put smile on face and radiate the peace to the next passing person or person that were also help in working. Sometimes someone from neighbourhood brought the tea and cakes for short break. Nature had wonderful tools to direct us to respect and slow down in personal selfishness and self-organizing for cleansing. Snow , big snow are blessings. And still there is no big harm that would initiitate finanicial imbalancies like in Insurance companies or banks or stock exchange. EVerything is just in easier flow. And give you time for re-modelling. Like smooth warning of the nature to restore. Even the effects of snow when disapperaing are positive. Sorrounding ( around cities ) mountains are absorbing the water that could be accumulated if people were smart enough and invest their money for permaculture way of growing landscapes around urban areas ( trees and smartly prepared big gardens with mix of plants and trees ) . This way the ground and mountains could beceome natural resources for water in hot summers when snow is slowly melting and absorbing into the ground. This water is healthier because of ground soil microflora if treated with respect. So many opportunities for prosperity when country is blessed with snow. Specially those towns that are in warmer area according to the Geographic latitude. Because raises new opportunities, new islands of peace and new ideas for products and prosperity are launched. Sure for someone that is disintegrated in their economy or on addiction drug because of inndividual selflish economy oriented in small services or disintegrated because of slavery to foreign economy not oriented to the needs of community is having problem to survive in such new opportunities. But first big snow storms bring warnings and compassion added value. It is not punishment for transgression, it is blessing and expression of peace and opportunity to be faster than judgement as concept of the mercy: turn to the own potentials before judgement is made and this way inititate the needed backgrund for forgiveness askings.
