  Transcendental Trauma is the worst

  All separation evolves from there.

  But....did Hashem Himself experience such "trauma" when he subdivided Himself so to speak when He separated the Ohr Ein Sof into the various parts of creation?

    Yes. But.  Just like our trauma is ultimately not real.  So too HaShems trauma is not real

  The soul does such a good job uniting

  With the body, that the body can deny the soul's existence. 

  2 fish Were swimming. One asked the other if he believed in water. The other answered "my father believed in water, but I'm not so sure!"

  At times it is said that the body is the

  Refrigerator and the soul is the electricity. Pull the plug and it's over.

  Other times, like in this maamer it is said that the body IS the soul and they are one.

    Maybe it's that the soul and the body are one ONLY when plugged in.

  Doing a yid a favor is greater than understanding

  A mitzvah Bain Adam lemokom.

  But....wasn't that the chiddush of xianity that held that mitzvahs Bain adam lechavero trumps those Bain adam lemokom? And reform Judaism did the sa.e 1800 years later?

  Which Torah are you learning?

  The Torah of connection OR the Torah of "I'm more learned than you"? 

  This sounds like the difference between the story of the Alter Rebbe leaving Kol Nidre to help a yoledes compared to the  praise heaped on gedolim. The difference between chassidus and litvish.

  An empathic person instantly cured the sufferer

  By saying "I'm so sorry" and so the sufferer wasn't alone. 

  In 1978 many injured and crippled IDF soldiers came to 770. One of them had suffered for many years UNTIL the Rebbe said "thank you" to him!

  The Rebbe's skin was shriveled because he was

  There with the sinning chosid. That wasn't guilt inducing apparently but meant to show that the chosid wasn't alone.

  But....wouldn't that make the chosid more guilty knowing that his Rebbe was watching and knowing it all? It's not only comforting in a way but also guilt inducing.

  "Nothing is ever lost, no matter how low "

  Was Hashem there, then, in the gas chambers of Aushwitz?

  The Ramak says that the distance from Atzilus to Elokus

  Is far greater than the distance from Asiya (our world) to Atzilus.

  I.e. it is way beyond all of us to imagine what Elokus really is. But....we must try to understand as much as possible. 

  Imagine. 3 ants walking. One gets crushed by a human foot. The other 2 begin to discuss the reason, the meaning, and the purpose of their friend's demise. How close to reality (as we know it) can they get with their discussion?

  Chassidus says there are 3 languages

  Or frequencies.  Olamos (world) Neshamos (soul, spirit) and Elokus (Hashem). 

  Which language are we using now?

  Gary Chapman says there are 5 love languages. Each person has a favorite.  Make sure you know that of your partner for good communication
