FREE HELP FOR PEOPLE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH LEARNING
(and for those who aren’t)
(and for those who aren’t)
The Baal Shem Tov taught that “learning Torah l’shmah” means connecting each letter to its root up in Heaven as you say each word out loud. When Hashem spoke and created the world, the words He spoke were made up of letters, therefore the letters that we have here with us in This World have their roots up in Heaven. “Learning l’shmah” means connecting the letters, with your mind, to their roots, as you say them. It does not mean, according to the Baal Shem Tov, learning to understand what you are learning or even to be able to do the mitzvos - it just means to connect the letters to their roots.
So if you're having trouble with learning (or even if you're not), spend a part of your learning time each day just connecting the letters to their roots up in Heaven. During that time, don’t try to understand what you are saying, or anything else, just connect the letters to their roots up in Heaven as you say each word out loud. Don’t stop to figure out what you are saying - if you understand it, fine; but if you don’t, just keep going. Go through all of Shas and the Shulchan Aruch as fast as you can doing only that.
You’ll be glad you did.

SELECTED RELEVANT QUOTATIONS FROM SEFORIM HAKEDOSHIM
ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF SOME OF THE ABOVE QUOTATIONS
· (Shabbos 63a) A man should first learn and afterwards understand.
· (Baal Shem Tov on the Torah, Amud HaTefillah, note 83, s.v. yaduah, from the sefer Ozar HaChaim) Because the essential work in Torah and prayer is to attach oneself to the inner spiritual Unlimited Light that is within the letters of the Torah and prayer, because this is the essential learning “lishmah” (for its own sake).
· (Baal Shem Tov on the Torah, parshas Bereishis, note 10, s.v. u’k’mo, from the sefer Heichal HaBerachah) The Unlimited Light that dwells within the letters is the Godly light that is within the letters…. One’s primary intention should be to draw the spirituality and light from the Upper Levels to the letters that he mentions, so that the letters can go up to the Upper Levels to enact his requests.
· (Baal Shem Tov on the Torah, parshas V’eschanon, #34, from the sefer Tolodos Yaacov Yosef) And I heard in the name of my teacher (the Baal Shem Tov) that “lishmah” is in the name of the word and the letter itself, to attach it to its root.
· (Eruvin 53a) Rabbi Yochanan said, the hearts of the early people was like the opening to the Ulam (the entrance to the Beis HaMikdash - which was 20 ammos wide, which is about 35 feet or 11 meters) and of the later people like the entrance to the Heichal (which was 10 ammos wide, which is about 17 feet or 5½ meters) and us, like the width of the hole of a “Sidkis” needle (Rashi: a needle that they sew tears in clothing, which is very small). The early people were Rabbi Akiva, the later people were Rabbi Elazar ben Shmuah… Abaye said, and us like forcing a peg into a wall (Rashi: like a peg that they force into a narrow hole in a wall, that enters with difficulty, so we are unable to understand what we hear, except a little and with difficulty).
· (Baal Shem Tov on the Torah, parshas V’Eschanan, no. 34, from Tolodos Yaakov Yosef) And I heard in the name of my Master (the Baal Shem Tov) that “l’shmah” is in the name of the word and the letter itself, to attach it to its root.
