The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Shais Taub’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

all right weekly text-based Tanya we are still in chapter 42. this is a third or fourth fifth how many classes have we been doing chapter 42. you're gonna be very quiet okay last week we only covered a few lines which is okay that's that happens sometimes um if we can cover a little bit more this week than we covered last week we should finish the chapter God will so we're in the middle of speaking about last week when we left off sort of uh closing the loop on the where the chapter began with that question on the gamada that says uh is uh of Hashem really a trivial matter is it no big no big deal no biggie and the gumara says it's not a problem it's a no big deal we said fine that's formation but what about us so um he uh he explained to the beginning of the chapter already that Maisha is your internal motion which is Das and then what we said last week was what happens is you're going to meditate on subjects that bring to the awe of God the Grandeur of God you're going to meditate on the Grandeur of God the both how Hashem is beyond beyond beyond and at the same time he's focused in on us that's going to incite a certain feeling of awe and that that the the takeaway from that will be at least as effective as the feelings we have of inhibition in Social settings where we don't want to embarrass ourselves in front of other human beings
