What’s said in this shiur

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

you know the idea is that Kabbalah is the spiritual core of the world it is like the genetic material that emanates into reality so if you grasp an idea in this area of wisdom then you have a key to understanding many things just like I happen to be a doctor and you know in medicine when you study the body you go back to the genetics you go back to embryology how the fetus is formed and from there you go back to the genes no one's serious studies anything medical today without going back to genetics if that explains things if you know how to read the genes then you know what emanates from them so you always go back to the deepest level of explanation in chemistry and physics and Mathematics we go back to the principles the laws you know what the details you want the rules the laws that's what Kabbalah is very abstract but you grasp an idea in that field of wisdom you have a key to explaining many things so let me share with you an idea that is very relevant to moving from Hanukkah on into the rest of the winter and let's see if we can feel this in Torah and then in life so here's the idea in the great capitalistic works for example the great it's Heim which is the Prime commentary on the Tsar great kabbalistic work one of the first areas that's discussed
