This isn't part of life. This is life.
This isn't a reality. It's reality.
This isn't an idea. It's existence.
Every Chossid has learned V'Ata Tetzveh countless times. In that Maamer, we are explained the role of a Rebbe in making our Emuna real. This Maamer, however, explains ever so simply, why we can't do this on our own.
By virtue of being a Neshama of B'ia there will always be the "I" and "it". No matter how deeply we work to internalize the concept of Elokus, there's a fundamental problem here Our journey down left its mark on (most of) our Neshama.
היינו שהגם שישנו ענין ההשגה באלקות בשכל, ויודעים שכך צריך להיות כו', מ"מ, בנוגע לפועל הנה הביטול הוא ביטול היש בלבד, היינו, שידיעתם אינה פועלת שכן יהי' אצלם, והוא לפי שחסר בהם ענין הדעת.
We need a Rebbe, a Neshama from Atzilus, to give us that Daas.
You hear this when people describe being in the presence of the Rebbe. Things clicked. What they had long thought about and worked towards finally became them. Clarity. Reality.
Today that happens through hiskashrus. Only through a real connection with the Rebbe, can one achieve the state of being and Bittul necessary to experience Elokus in a manner of Daas.
