הִנֵּה יֵשׁ בָּזֶה בְּחִינַת מָשִׁיחַ, וְרוּחַ־הַקֹּדֶשׁ, וְיִחוּד קֻדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא וּשְׁכִינְתֵּהּ, וּתְחִיָּה.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
Behold, this [verse] contains the concepts of Mashiach, ruach hakodesh *,* the unification of the Blessed Holy One and His *Shekhinah* (Divine Presence), and resurrection.


###### Likutei Moharan 78:1:3
[Likutei Moharan 78:1:3](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Likutei%20Moharan/r/78:1:3)

כִּי תְּחִלַּת הַבְּרִיאָה הָיָה כְּדֵי שֶׁיִּתְגַּלֶּה מִדַּת מַלְכוּתוֹ, וּמֵחֲמַת גֹּדֶל הֶאָרָתוֹ לֹא הָיָה בְּאֶפְשָׁרִי לְקַבֵּל, וְהֻכְרַח לְהִתְצַמְצֵם בְּתוֹךְ עוֹלָמוֹת. וְזֶה (תהילים קמ״ה:י״ג): מַלְכוּתְךָ מַלְכוּת כָּל עוֹלָמִים, הַיְנוּ שֶׁמִּדַּת מַלְכוּת הִתְלַבֵּשׁ בְּתוֹךְ עוֹלָמוֹת, כְּדֵי שֶׁנּוּכַל לְקַבֵּל. וְאֵין מִי שֶׁיְּקַבֵּל עֹל מַלְכוּתוֹ, לָכֵן יוֹצְאוֹת נַפְשׁוֹת יִשְׂרָאֵל, שֶׁיְּקַבְּלוּ עֹל מַלְכוּתוֹ, כִּי אֵין מֶלֶךְ בְּלֹא עָם.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
The initial reason for the creation was in order to reveal His attribute of *Malkhut* (Kingship). However, the illumination of the Blessed One’s Light was so great that nothing could contain it. Thus it was necessary to contract it within the worlds, level after level until this world of corporeality. This is the meaning of “Your kingdom is a *malkhut* for all *OLaMim* (ages)” (Psalms 145:13)—i.e., that the attribute of *Malkhut* had to be clothed within the *OLaMot* (worlds) in order that we might be able to receive it. Still, there was no one to accept the yoke of His Kingship. The souls of the Jewish people therefore went forth, so that they might accept upon themselves the yoke of His *Malkhut,* because there is no king unless there are subjects.


###### Likutei Moharan 78:1:4
[Likutei Moharan 78:1:4](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Likutei%20Moharan/r/78:1:4)

וּמֵאַיִן יוֹצְאוֹת נַפְשׁוֹת יִשְׂרָאֵל, מֵעוֹלַם הַדִּבּוּר. וְזֶהוּ (שיר השירים ה׳:ו׳): נַפְשִׁי יָצְאָה בְדַבְּרוֹ, הַיְנוּ שֶׁנַּפְשׁוֹת יִשְׂרָאֵל יוֹצְאוֹת מֵעוֹלַם הַדִּבּוּר. וְהַדִּבּוּר הוּא בְּחִינַת מַלְכוּת, כְּמוֹ שֶׁאָמַר אֵלִיָּהוּ: מַלְכוּת פֶּה.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
From where did the Jewish souls emerge? They [came] from the World of Speech. This is “my soul came forth when he spoke” (Song of Songs 5:6)—i.e., the souls of the Jewish people emerge from the World of Speech. And speech is the aspect of *Malkhut,* as Eliyahu taught: “*Malkhut* is the mouth” (Tikkuney Zohar, Introduction, p.17a) .


###### Likutei Moharan 78:1:5
[Likutei Moharan 78:1:5](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Likutei%20Moharan/r/78:1:5)

וּבְחִינוֹת שְׁכִינָה גַּם כֵּן, כִּי שׁוֹכֶנֶת אִתָּם תָּמִיד בְּלִי הֶפְסֵק רֶגַע, כְּמוֹ שֶׁכָּתוּב (ויקרא ט״ז:ט״ז): הַשּׁוֹכֵן אִתָּם בְּתוֹךְ טֻמְאוֹתָם,

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
[Speech] is also the *SheKhiNah,* who *ShoKheiN* (dwells) with them continuously even in exile, as it is written (Leviticus 16:16), “that dwells with them in the midst of their impurity.”


###### Likutei Moharan 78:1:6
[Likutei Moharan 78:1:6](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Likutei%20Moharan/r/78:1:6)

וְהוּא בְּחִינַת: אֵם הַבָּנִים. הַיְנוּ, כְּמוֹ שֶׁהָאֵם הוֹלֶכֶת תָּמִיד עִם בָּנֶיהָ, וְאֵינָהּ שׁוֹכַחַת אוֹתָם, כֵּן הַדִּבּוּר, שֶׁהוּא בְּחִינַת שְׁכִינָה, הוֹלֶכֶת עִם הָאָדָם תָּמִיד. וְזֶהוּ (ירמיהו ל״א:כ׳): כִּי מִדֵּי דַבְּרִי בוֹ זָכוֹר אֶזְכְּרֶנּוּ; הַיְנוּ כְּמוֹ שֶׁאָמַרְנוּ, שֶׁהַדִּבּוּר זוֹכֶרֶת אוֹתוֹ תָּמִיד, וְהוֹלֶכֶת עִמּוֹ אֲפִלּוּ בִּמְקוֹם הַטִּנֹּפֶת.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
This is the aspect of “a mother of children” (Psalms 113:9). Just as a mother always stays with her child and never forgets him, so the power of speech, which is the *Shekhinah,* is forever with them. This is the meaning of “whenever I speak of him, I surely remember him [more]” (Jeremiah 31:19). That is as we said: speech remembers him constantly, and goes with him even to a place of filth.


###### Likutei Moharan 78:2:1

וְזֶהוּ בְּחִינַת גָּלוּת הַשְּׁכִינָה, שֶׁהַדִּבּוּר שֶׁהוּא בְּחִינַת הַשְּׁכִינָה, בַּגָּלוּת, וְנִתְאַלֵּם, כְּמוֹ שֶׁכָּתוּב (תהילים ל״ט:ג׳): נֶאֱלַמְתִּי דּוּמִיָּה. וְזֶהוּ (תהילים נ״ח:ב׳): הַאֻמְנָם אֵלֶם צֶדֶק תְּדַבֵּרוּן; הַיְנוּ כִּי צֶדֶק זֶה מַלְכוּתָא קַדִּישָׁא, כַּנּוֹדַע, וּמַלְכוּת, הוּא הַדִּבּוּר כַּנַּ"ל, כְּשֶׁהוּא בַּגָּלוּת הוּא אִלֵּם.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
**2.** This is the exile of the *Shekhinah*—that the power of speech, which is the *Shekhinah,* is in exile and is struck dumb, as it is written (Psalms 39:3), “I was dumb with silence.” This is the meaning of “Have you indeed been struck dumb when you ought to be speaking justice?” (ibid. 58:2). Justice is Malkhut of Holiness (Tikkuney Zohar, Introduction, p.17b), as is known. And *Malkhut,* as explained above, is speech. When it is in exile, it is struck dumb.


###### Likutei Moharan 78:2:2
[Likutei Moharan 78:2:2](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Likutei%20Moharan/r/78:2:2)

וְלָכֵן בַּמֶּה שֶּׁפָּגַם יְתַקֵּן, הַיְנוּ וִדּוּי דְּבָרִים. כְּמוֹ שֶׁאָמַר הַכָּתוּב (הושע י״ד:ג׳): קְחוּ עִמָּכֶם דְּבָרִים – שֶׁיִּתְוַדֶּה תָּמִיד בְּכָל לִבּוֹ, נֹכַח פְּנֵי אֲדֹנָי. אֲזַי: וְשׁוּבוּ אֶל ה' – שֶׁיָּשׁוּבוּ כָּל הַדְּבָרִים שֶׁפָּגַם אֶל שָׁרְשׁוֹ. וְזֶהוּ בְּחִינַת יִחוּד קֻדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא וּשְׁכִינְתֵּהּ, כִּי מְיַחֵד הַדִּבּוּר, שֶׁהוּא בְּחִינַת הַשְּׁכִינָה כַּנַּ"ל, אֶל ה'.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
**{“Take words with you and return to God”** (Hosea 14:3)**.}** Said differently, he must effect rectification through the very means by which he caused blemish—namely, words of confession, as Scripture states: “Take words with you.” He should confess constantly, with sincerity, “in the presence of God” (Lamentations 2:19), and so “return to God.” Whatever speech he blemished will thus return to its source. This is the concept of the unification of the Blessed Holy One and His *Shekhinah,* for he unites speech, which corresponds to the *Shekhinah,* with God.


###### Likutei Moharan 78:2:3
[Likutei Moharan 78:2:3](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Likutei%20Moharan/r/78:2:3)

וְזֶהוּ גַּם כֵּן שֶׁאָמַר הַכָּתוּב (ישעיהו מ׳:ה׳): וְנִגְלָה כְּבוֹד ה' וְרָאוּ כָל בָּשָׂר יַחְדָּו כִּי פִי ה' דִּבֵּר. הַיְנוּ, כְּשֶׁמְּיַחֵד הַדִּבּוּר עִם ה', שֶׁהוּא יִחוּד קֻדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא וּשְׁכִינְתֵּהּ כַּנַּ"ל, אֲזַי: וְנִגְלָה כְּבוֹד ה'. כָּבוֹד זוֹ שְׁכִינָה, כַּנּוֹדַע. הַיְנוּ, שֶׁנִּתְגַּלֶּה וְנִתְגַּדֵּל הֶאָרַת הַשְּׁכִינָה, שֶׁהוּא בְּחִינַת מַלְכוּת.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
This is also stated by the verse (Isaiah 40:5): “Then the glory of God will be revealed, and all flesh will see it together; for the mouth of God has spoken.” That is, when he unites speech with God—which is the unification of the Blessed Holy One and His *Shekhinah*—then “the glory of God will be revealed.” “The glory of God” is the *Shekhinah,* as explained elsewhere. This is so that the illumination of the Divine persona *Malkhut* will be revealed.


###### Likutei Moharan 78:2:4
[Likutei Moharan 78:2:4](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Likutei%20Moharan/r/78:2:4)

כִּי עַכְשָׁו נִקְטָן אוֹרָהּ וְנֶחֱלָשׁ כֹּחָהּ, כְּמוֹ שֶׁכָּתוּב בַּזֹּהַר הַקָּדוֹשׁ, שֶׁהַשְּׁכִינָה צוֹוַחַת: סַמְּכוּנִי בָּאֲשִׁישׁוֹת וְכוּ', כִּי חוֹלַת אַהֲבָה אָנִי; הַיְנוּ אַהֲבַת יִשְׂרָאֵל, שֶׁאֲנִי שׁוֹכֵן אִתָּם אֲפִלּוּ בְּתוֹךְ טֻמְאוֹתָם, וְזֶהוּ גָּלוּת הַשְּׁכִינָה. אֲבָל כְּמוֹ שֶׁאָמַרְנוּ [שֶׁעַל־יְדֵי] שֶׁיְּתַקֵּן פַּרְצוּף מַלְכוּת, וִייַחֵד הַדִּבּוּר, שֶׁהוּא בְּחִינַת מַלְכוּת וּבְחִינַת שְׁכִינָה, עִם ה', יִתְגַּלֶּה וְיִתְגַּדֵּל אוֹרָהּ שֶׁל פַּרְצוּף מַלְכוּת. וְזֶהוּ (משלי ט״ז:ט״ו): בְּאוֹר פְּנֵי מֶלֶךְ חַיִּים; הַיְנוּ [שֶׁעַל־ יְדֵי] שֶׁיִּתֵּן הֶאָרָה בְּפַרְצוּף מַלְכוּת, יָכוֹל לִחְיוֹת, כִּי שׁוֹאֵב חַיִּים מִמִּדַּת מַלְכוּת, שֶׁהוּא שָׁרְשׁוֹ כַּנַּ"ל:

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
Presently, Her Light is diminished and Her power weakened, as it is written in the Holy *Zohar:* The *Shekhinah* screams, “Sustain me with dainties… for I am love-sick” (Song of Songs 2:5). This refers to Her love for Israel: I dwell with them, even in the midst of their impurity. This is the *Shekhinah* in exile. But when one unites speech—which corresponds to *Malkhut* and the *Shekhinah*—with God, the Light of the Divine persona *Malkhut* is revealed and enhanced. This is the meaning of “In the light of the King’s countenance there is life” (Proverbs 16:15). That is, by rectifying the Light of the Divine persona *Malkhut* he can live, because he draws life from the attribute of *Malkhut,* which is his source, as explained above.

[Likutei Moharan 78:3:1](https://torahapp.org/share/book/Likutei%20Moharan/r/78:3:1)

וְגַם זֶהוּ בְּחִינַת רוּחַ־הַקֹּדֶשׁ, כִּי מַה שֶּׁאָדָם חַי, אֵינוֹ כִּי אִם מֵחֲמַת שֶׁנּוֹשֵׁם נְשִׁימוֹת, וּמַה הִיא נְשִׁימָה, שֶׁמּוֹצִיא וּמַכְנִיס הָרוּחַ. וְזֶהוּ בְּחִינַת (יחזקאל א׳:י״ד): הַחַיּוֹת רָצוֹא וָשׁוֹב. וְלָכֵן, כְּשֶׁאָדָם דָּבוּק לְמַלְכוּתָא קַדִּישָׁא, וּמְדַבֵּר תּוֹרָה אוֹ תְּפִלָּה, מוֹצִיא וּמַכְנִיס רוּחַ הַקְּדֻשָּׁה. וְזֶהוּ (שם לו): וְרוּחַ חֲדָשָׁה אֶתֵּן בְּקִרְבְּכֶם – הַיְנוּ קֶרֶב שֶׁלָּכֶם, כְּשֶׁהוּא נוֹשֵׁם נְשִׁימָה שֶׁל קְדֻשָּׁה, אֲזַי: וְרוּחַ חֲדָשָׁה אֶתֵּן – הַיְנוּ רוּחַ הַקֹּדֶשׁ.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
**3.** This is also the concept of *ruach hakodesh* (holy spirit). Human life depends on the ability to breathe. What is breathing? It is exhaling and inhaling air (*ruach*), as in “The living creatures ran and returned” (Ezekiel 1:14). Therefore, when a person is attached to the *Malkhut* of Holiness and speaks words of Torah or prayer, he exhales and inhales the *ruach* (air) of holiness. This is the meaning of “I will put a new spirit into you” (ibid. 36:26)—i.e., in your insides. When a person breathes a breath of holiness, then “I will put a new *ruach* (spirit)”—namely, *ruach hakodesh* .

וְזֶה (בראשית א׳:ב׳): וְרוּחַ אֱלֹקִים מְרַחֶפֶת עַל פְּנֵי הַמָּיִם; הַיְנוּ כְּשֶׁלּוֹמֵד תּוֹרָה, כִּי מַיִם זוֹ תּוֹרָה, כַּיָּדוּעַ, אֲזַי: וְרוּחַ אֱלֹקִים, שֶׁהוּא רוּחַ־הַקֹּדֶשׁ, מְרַחֶפֶת וְחוֹפֵף עָלָיו וְשׁוֹאֵב רוּחַ חַיִּים. כִּי בְּלֹא תּוֹרָה אִי אֶפְשָׁר לִחְיוֹת, כְּמוֹ שֶׁכָּתוּב (בתיקוני זוהר תקון יג דף כז:): אִלְמָלֵא כַּנְפֵי רֵאָה דְּנָשְׁבִי עַל לִבָּא הָוֵי לִבָּא אוֹקִיד כָּל גּוּפָא. וְרֵאָה דָּא מַיָּא זוהר פנחס דף ריח:), וּמַיָּא דָּא תּוֹרָה.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
And this is the meaning of “and the spirit of God hovering over the water’s surface” (Genesis 1:2). This is when one studies Torah, for water connotes Torah, as is known. Then “the *ruach* of God,” which is *ruach hakodesh,* is “hovering” and extending over it, and he draws *ruach* (breath) of life. For without Torah it is impossible to live, as it is written, “If not for the lobes of the lungs fanning the heart, the heart would consume the entire body” (Tikkuney Zohar #13, p.28a). The lungs are associated with water (Zohar III, Raaya Mehemna, p .218b), and water connotes Torah.

כִּי כְּשֶׁהָאִישׁ הַיִּשְׂרְאֵלִי בּוֹעֵר בְּלִבּוֹ לְהַשֵּׁם יִתְבָּרַךְ, הָיָה בְּאֶפְשָׁרִי לִהְיוֹת אוֹקִיד כָּל גּוּפָא, אֲבָל כְּשֶׁיִּתְלַבֵּשׁ בְּאוֹתִיּוֹת הַתּוֹרָה אוֹ תְּפִלָּה, מֵגֶנֶת וּמַצֶּלֶת עָלָיו. וְכֵן, חַס וְשָׁלוֹם, לְהֶפֶךְ, כְּשֶׁבּוֹעֵר אֶל תַּאֲווֹת עוֹלָם הַזֶּה, הֲוָה אוֹקִיד גַּם כֵּן כָּל גּוּפָא, אֲבָל כְּשֶׁאַחַר כָּךְ לוֹמֵד תּוֹרָה אוֹ עוֹשֶׂה מִצְוָה, הִיא מֵגֶנֶת וּמַצֶּלֶת עָלָיו, וְיָכוֹל לִחְיוֹת. כִּי שׁוֹאֵב רוּחַ חַיִּים, שֶׁהוּא רוּחַ־ הַקֹּדֶשׁ, מִמִּדַּת מַלְכוּת, שֶׁהוּא שָׁרְשׁוֹ.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
When a Jew’s heart burns for God, this [fiery passion] could consume him completely. But when he is enclothed in the letters of Torah or prayer, they protect and save him. The reverse, God forbid, is likewise so. When a person burns with desire for the temptations of this world, this, too, would consume his entire body were it not that he draws life and sustenance from the Other Side. But afterwards, if he occupies himself with Torah, prayer and mitzvot, they protect and save him. He can then live, because he draws *ruach* (breath) of life, which is *ruach hakodesh,* from the attribute of *Malkhut,* his source.

וְלָכֵן רְשָׁעִים בְּחַיֵּיהֶם קְרוּיִים מֵתִים (ברכות יח:), כִּי מֵחֲמַת שֶׁנִּפְסָק מֵחֶבֶל דִּקְדֻשָּׁה, מֵאַיִן יִהְיֶה לוֹ חִיּוּת, וְשׁוֹאֵב רוּחַ שֶׁל שְׁטוּת, כִּי דָּבוּק אֶל מֶלֶךְ זָקֵן וּכְסִיל (קהלת ד׳:י״ג). וְזֶהוּ שֶׁאָמְרוּ רַבּוֹתֵינוּ זִכְרוֹנָם לִבְרָכָה (סוטה ג): אֵין אָדָם עוֹבֵר עֲבֵרָה אֶלָּא אִם כֵּן נִכְנַס בּוֹ רוּחַ שְׁטוּת. אֲבָל לְהֵפֶךְ, נִכְנַס בּוֹ רוּחַ־הַקֹּדֶשׁ.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
This is the reason the wicked are considered dead even while alive (Berakhot 18b). They have been severed from the rope of holiness. From where are they to acquire life? Instead, they draw a spirit of foolishness, because they are attached to “an old and foolish king” (Ecclesiastes 4:13). For a person does not sin unless a *ruach* of foolishness enters him (Sotah 3a). Whereas if it is the other way around, *ruach hakodesh* enters him.

וְרוּחַ־הַקֹּדֶשׁ הוּא בְּחִינוֹת מַלְכוּת, כְּמוֹ שֶׁאָמַר הַכָּתוּב (אסתר ה׳:א׳): וַתִּלְבַּשׁ אֶסְתֵּר מַלְכוּת, וְדָרְשׁוּ רַבּוֹתֵינוּ זִכְרוֹנָם לִבְרָכָה (מגילה יד:): שֶׁלְּבָשַׁתָּהּ רוּחַ־הַקֹּדֶשׁ.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
*Ruach hakodesh* is the aspect of *Malkhut,* as Scripture states: “Esther donned *malkhut* (kingship)” (Esther 5:1)—and our Sages, of blessed memory, expounded: she donned *ruach hakodesh* (Megillah 15a) .

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
**4.** This is also the concept of resurrection of the dead. As Rashi comments on the verse “then Yaakov’s spirit came alive” (Genesis 45:27)— *ruach hakodesh* settled upon him.

**5.** It is also the concept of Mashiach, about whom it is written (Isaiah 11:3), “he will not judge after the sight of his eyes…,” but entirely by means of *ruach hakodesh*. For the Divine persona *Malkhut* will be perfected then, and the attribute of *Malkhut* will be entirely gathered into its source. “The *malkhut* (kingdom) will then be God’s” (Obadiah 1:21), “and God will be King over all the earth” (Zechariah 14:9). We will be able to perceive our Creator on a level higher than all the worlds, without any garment, image or visual representation.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
This is the meaning of “For God… is a great *Melekh* over all the earth” (Psalms 47:3). When the attribute of *Malkhut* becomes great and Her Light ascends on account of our having rectified our deeds, we will then be able to perceive our Creator “*over* all”—i.e., on a level higher than all the worlds—and not as we do now, since at present He is enclothed *in* the worlds, as explained above.

**6.** This is the meaning of [the opening verse]: **{“May He grant power *l’malko* (to His king), and raise the horn of *meshicho* (His anointed one).”}**

וְיִתֶּן עֹז לְמַלְכּוֹ, הַיְנוּ כְּשֶׁיִּתֵּן עֹז וְהֶאָרָה לְמִדַּת מַלְכוּת, אֲזַי: וְיָרֵם קֶרֶן מְשִׁיחוֹ; כִּי כָּל אֶחָד יְתַקֵּן בְּחִינוֹת מָשִׁיחַ שֶׁלּוֹ, וְיֵלֵךְ מִמַּדְרֵגָה אֶל מַדְרֵגָה מְעַט מְעַט, עַד שֶׁיְּתַקֵּן הֶאָרַת פַּרְצוּף מַלְכוּת בִּשְׁלֵמוּת, וְזֶהוּ בְּחִינוֹת מָשִׁיחַ כַּנַּ"ל:

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
“May He grant power *l'MaLKo*”—i.e., when he provides the attribute of *MaLKhut* with power and illumination, then he “raises the horn of *MeShICho*.” This is the connotation of “He *MaSIaCh* (generates speech in) the mute” (Shabbat Morning Liturgy)—i.e., that each person has to rectify his personal aspect of speech. One should very gradually ascend from level to level, until the illumination of the Divine persona *Malkhut* is rectified entirely—this being the aspect of speech, as explained above.

**7.** {These words, too, are incorrectly ordered and also incomplete. It seems that they are meant to teach the value of holy speech. Holy speech is the concept of the *Shekhinah,* the “*ruach* of Mashiach,” *ruach hakodesh,* resurrection of the dead, and the unification of the Blessed Holy One and His *Shekhinah*. All this is clarified in the above lesson, however things are improperly arranged and the wording is incorrect. Even so, the astute will recognize that [the concepts] are all here, and those with wisdom [will know how to] set them right.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
**8.** This lesson also clarifies that the power of speech goes with a person even to places of filth, like a mother who accompanies her child wherever he goes. This is why speech is called “a mother of children.”

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
And this is the meaning of “whenever I speak of Him, I surely remember Him more.” No matter what level a person is sunk in, God forbid—even the very lowest spiritual level, even in places of filth—through speech he can still remind himself of God. Regardless of his situation, if he makes every effort to at least speak holy words of Torah and prayer and [engage in] personal conversation with God, he will be able to remind himself of God, even there in the lowly places, which are the places of filth. No matter what level he has fallen to, the power of speech will never let him forget God, as in “Whenever I speak of Him, I remember Him fondly still.” As long as he has inside him the words of God, holy speech, these words prevent him from forgetting Him. The power of speech repeatedly reminds him to strengthen himself in God at the place he is in. Understand well this matter of the tremendous power of speech. This is wonderful and awesome advice for anyone who truly wants to save himself from destruction, God forbid.

**9.** Also clarified by this is the great value of applying oneself to the holy Torah, which is the essence of a person’s life. This is because “If not for the lobes of the lungs fanning the heart, the heart would consume the entire body.” The lungs are the aspect of Torah, as explained above.

That is, a person has two conflagrations burning inside him. One is positive, the other is not; and neither is beneficial.

**Likutey Moharan Volumes 12-15, trans. by Moshe Mykoff. Breslov Research Inst., 1986-2012:**
For there are times when the heart of a Jew burns very intensely for God, like a blazing conflagration, but it is excessive and could consume him completely. Although his fiery passion is for God, since it is in excess, it is not beneficial. It is impossible to cool and reduce this flame, so that it is within measure, except through the Torah. When he applies himself to Torah, it protects and saves him, so that he will succeed in reducing this fiery passion to its proper level.

The reverse, God forbid, is likewise so. There are times when a person burns with such great desire for the temptations of this world, that this, too, could consume his entire body, God forbid. But when he studies Torah, it protects him and saves him even from the flame of this evil fire of desire that would consume him completely, God forbid.

We see from this that without the Torah, God forbid, a person could not exist. He would be consumed and nullified by the multiple conflagrations he possesses—either in excess on the right, or on the left, God forbid. This is the meaning of “If not for the lobes of the lungs,” which is the Torah “fanning the heart, [the heart] would consume the entire body” through the two types of conflagrations mentioned above. The Torah alone saves one from this. Understand how to apply these things in practice.}
