  Thank you for today’s class. I walked away realizing that I always welcome with open arms the Mordechai aspect in my life, but I become very judgmental with my Haman side. I resent it, I wish it would go away, I’m embarrassed, ashamed, etc…..
  With this maimar I realize that I can bring the joy of “Purim” into my life much more when I can stop differentiating between them, the Mordechai and the Haman inside of me. When I can instead become curious about the Haman inside of me and even welcome it and ask what is it about. Enter in a mode of self awareness and not differentiation…..
  Only to then discover a nizuz and touch Infinity…..!
  Wow, that frame of mind opens the door for such a much bigger life and opportunity for great transformation.

  It seems a contradiction from the arizal to what the with Chaim says mentioned in Tanya that    idol worshipers          m are from three impure klipos that it's impossible to fix

  We shouldn't bless Haman because it might raise the small speck of Kenosha. Why nothing not curse Mordechai who might have a spark of bad? This is like not learning Torah on Xmas night not to add bracha to the bad.

  One should drink on Purim until one doesn't know the difference between Haman and Mordechai.  One was extremely bad, the other extremely righteous. What do they have in common? EXTREMENESS. One should drink. completely sober one might think that there a tiny bit of goodness in Haman (like Hitler ym"S was a vegetarian) and a tiny bit of bad in Mordechai. So we say, NO, drink until you see ONLY EXTREMENESS of bad in Haman and the EXTREMENESS of good in Mordechai

    I love the concept of extremes but I feel under the extremes there is ego...in my opinion only an egoistic person can be extremely bad or extremely good. Drunkenesss actually reduces our egos.

  "Why did Moshe Rabbenu add the moshel of the 2 cups"? What did it add? There are those who use long lists of synonyms which basically are repetitive. They don't add!

  "Remember to blot out the name of Amalek" .  this is an inherent contradiction.  A "storage minay ubay". If one is successful and completely blots out the memory of Amalek, there is nothing left to remember!

  Most of a farbrengen was sichos and then there was a maamer. wait a minute....those are only the WORDS the Rebbe said, MOST of the farbrengen was unspoken nonverbal eye contact,  singing,  niggunim and lechaims!
