BaMidbar [In the Desert]

19-20) It is written, “Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God appeared.” “Appeared” means illuminates. When He illuminates, He illuminates to all the worlds. And when this light—blessing and life—awakens, everything is in unity, in Zivug, and all is in love, all is in perfection, and then it is peace for all, peace of above and of below, as it is written, “Peace be within your walls, and prosperity within your palaces.”

21) “Be joyful with Jerusalem and rejoice for her, all you who love her.” How favored is the Torah by the Creator because wherever words of Torah are heard, the Creator and all His armies listen to His words. And the Creator comes to dwell with him.

22) The Mitzvot of the Torah are sublime, superior. A man comes and performs a Mitzva. That Mitzva stands before the Creator and crowns before Him and says, “So and so made me,” and “I am from so and so,” since he awakened it above. This is so because as he evoked the Mitzva below, it is awakened above and makes peace above and below. This causes Zivug between ZA and Malchut, who are called “above” and “below.”

75-76) Happy is the man who knows how to lure and to serve his Master with the desire and the intention of the heart. Woe unto one who comes to lure his Master with a far away heart and unwillingly.

For this reason, one needs to attach one’s soul and desire to one’s Master, and not approach Him with a false desire.
