Likutei Moharan 75:11/ליקוטי מוהר"ן ע״ה:י״א
אכִּי עִקַּר הַבְּרִיאָה הָיְתָה עַל־יְדֵי הַדִּבּוּר, כְּמוֹ שֶׁכָּתוּב (תהילים ל״ג:ו׳): בִּדְבַר ה' שָׁמַיִם נַעֲשׂוּ. וְעַל־יְדֵי הַשְּׁבִירָה נָפְלוּ נִיצוֹצוֹת בְּכָל הַדְּבָרִים, בְּמַאֲכָל וּבְמִשְׁתֶּה וּבְמַלְבּוּשׁ, וּבְכָל הַתַּעֲנוּגִים שֶׁבָּעוֹלָם. כִּי הַתַּעֲנוּג שֶׁיֵּשׁ בְּהַדָּבָר שֶׁאוֹכֵל וְשׁוֹתֶה וְכַיּוֹצֵא בָּזֶה, הוּא מֵהַנִּיצוֹצוֹת שֶׁנָּפְלוּ לְשָׁם,
111. In essence, the creation came about through speech, as it is written (Psalms 33:6), “By the word of God the heavens were made.” But as a result of the Shattering, sparks fell into all things, into food, drink, clothing, and all the pleasures in the world. The pleasure derived from eating, drinking and the like comes from the sparks that fell there.
בוְהַנִצּוֹצוֹת הֵם אוֹתִיּוֹת כַּנַּ"ל. וְקֹדֶם שֶׁמּוֹצִיאָם אֶל הַדִּבּוּר, הֵם בִּבְחִינַת דָּם, שֶׁהוּא בְּחִינַת נֶפֶשׁ, כְּמוֹ שֶׁכָּתוּב (ויקרא י״ז:י״ד): כִּי נֶפֶשׁ כָּל בָּשָׂר דָּמוֹ בְּנַפְשׁוֹ הוּא. וּכְשֶׁמּוֹצִיאָם עַל־יְדֵי הַדִּבּוּר, זֶהוּ בְּחִינַת (שיר השירים ה׳:ו׳): נַפְשִׁי יָצְאָה בְּדַבְּרוֹ; וְאָז מַעְלָה הַנִּיצוֹצוֹת וּמְחַבְּרָם יַחַד, וְעוֹשֶׂה שָׁלוֹם בֵּינֵיהֶם.
2These sparks are also letters, as explained above. Before one expresses them in speech, they are the aspect of blood, which corresponds to the soul, as it is written (Leviticus 17:14), “For the soul of any living being—its blood is one with its soul.” And once he expresses them in speech, it is the aspect of “my soul came forth when he spoke” (Song of Songs 5:6). He thus elevates the sparks and unites them, making peace between them.
גוְזֶהוּ שֶׁאָמַרְנוּ לְמַעְלָה, שֶׁעַל־יְדֵי הַדָּמִים שֶׁלֹּא עָבַד בָּהֶם אֶת הַשֵּׁם יִתְבָּרַךְ, מִזֶּה בָּא נִצָּחוֹן וּמַחֲלֹקֶת. כִּי עִקַּר הַנִּצָּחוֹן וְהַמַּחֲלֹקֶת, הוּא מִבְּחִינַת הַנִּיצוֹצוֹת הַנְּפוּלִין הַנַּ"ל, קֹדֶם שֶׁמְּחַבְּרָם וּמְתַקְּנָם, שֶׁאָז הֵם בִּבְחִינַת מַחֲלוֹקֶת כַּנַּ"ל, וַאֲזַי הֵם בְּחִינַת דָּמִים כַּנַּ"ל.
3This is as we said above, that having to always win and argue stems from the blood with which a person has not yet served God. For the need to always win and argue comes mainly from the aforementioned fallen sparks, before he combines and rectifies them. They are then in an aspect of conflict, and so correspond to the blood, as explained above.
דוְעַל כֵּן צָרִיךְ לַעֲבֹד אֶת הַשֵּׁם יִתְבָּרַךְ בְּכָל הַטִּפֵּי דָּם שֶׁנִּמְצָאִים בּוֹ, דְּהַיְנוּ שֶׁיְּדַבֵּר הַרְבֵּה בְּתוֹרָה וּתְפִלָּה, עַד שֶׁיִּהְיֶה נַעֲשֶׂה מִכָּל הַדָּמִים דִּבּוּרִים שֶׁל תּוֹרָה וּתְפִלָּה. כִּי הַדִּבּוּר הוּא מֵהַנֶּפֶשׁ, שֶׁהוּא בְּחִינַת דָּמִים כַּנַּ"ל. וַאֲזַי מְבַטֵּל כָּל הַנִּצָּחוֹן וְהַמַּחֲלֹקֶת הַנִּמְשָׁךְ מֵהַנִּיצוֹצוֹת הַנְּפוּלִין הַנַּ"ל, שֶׁהֵם הֵם בְּחִינַת הַדָּמִים שֶׁעֲדַיִן לֹא עָבַד בָּהֶם אֶת הַשֵּׁם יִתְבָּרַךְ כַּנַּ"ל:
4A person must therefore serve God with every drop of blood inside him. He should recite much Torah and prayer until all his blood has been turned into words of Torah and prayer. The reason for this is that words are from the soul, which corresponds to the blood. Consequently, he eliminates any need to always win and argue engendered by the fallen sparks, which are themselves the aspect of blood with which he has yet to serve God, as explained above.
