What’s said in this shiur

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

i'll tell you something interesting at least i found it interesting is that the last time we went through tanya it was a little bit different style of a class um we weren't reading every word inside but uh when we came to chapter seven we did chapters seven and eight together in one class so we had one class where we condensed seven and eight seven and eight and i put them together and basically said these are the classes about clipper and uh why prolong it why do i speak about clipa longer than necessary it's interesting because today we're starting our third class just in chapter seven so we went from last time putting seven and eight both into one chapter to uh chapter seven itself on it on its own taking three chapters that's the three taking three chapters that's the three lessons so just to to review we were talking about clipas noiga about what literally translated means the luminescent of the shiny husk it's shining because you can see the godly spark within it that can be accessed and what we're really describing is everything mundane that can be channeled to some type of godly purpose channeled to some type of godly purpose okay so we spoke about when that opportunity is squandered and when we engage in mundane things without any intent for the sake of heaven and how it actually causes the experience to become um lower than neutral and how it becomes animalistic and i think that's basically where we left off yeah is that where we left off oh and we spoke about the the terms osser and mutter that was an important concept yeah tied down and untied right so the things relationships right we spoke yeah we spoke about food
