Question for Rabbi YY
First of all, thanks for the class and applying the concepts in life. Something its not clear to me. How this idea that all the waters from the world came from the same river is explained here? I understood that why the order of it ( first river and only then a spring), but whats the idea behind that they are the same exact water? (Just that they change format). Thanks in advance

  just thinking about it.
  
  can it be that this is what the Alter Rebbe says that in the middle of the day, when the person reminds himself that he already received upon himself the yoke of heaven "H' oneness" earlier in the morning, that is what will help him to continue serving H' in the "desert of the life"?
  
  If so, can the rabbi elaborate more on this?
  
  How is that exactly suppossed to work? Is this sort of שבועה and ברית, that someone remembers the pact and that help in the current situation??

That's a backward swastika. It has an evil feeling to it cuz of its connection with the Nazis, mach shemo.

The first Mishna in Mishna Mikvaos describes six different levels of mikvas. It is fascinating and incredible and I recommend everyone learn it. Maybe Rebbe would give a shir just on this first Mishna and bring it down for us in the beautiful way you do.

Sounds like...
A person can still "connect" even if s/he can't connect in the morning with tefillah

You named the first class in this series The Rive Irrigating the Garden with the sub title
"As You Connect to Oneness in Davening, You Experience the Divine Harmony in Torah Learning" . There seems to be an assumption in the subtitle that one connects to Oneness in Davening, and then one can or does experience the Divine Harmony in Torah Learning. My question is HOW does the connection to Oneness in Davening happen? I have such a hard time staying focused on what I'm reading while davening, let alone connecting.
