Though I gradually understand the meaning or intent of phrases in the Zohar, discovered through hearing the explanation, I especially value the question-and-answer sessions that finish each segment. Even when some questions seem redundant, transparent, or already ansered, the rav answers them with an equal balance of firmness and tact, reminding some subtly that a greater measure of attention to certain details may already yield the answer. I learn sooo much from the audio sessions. They have become indispensable to my spiritual conversion, and to my willingness to disengage as best I can from ego, and to trust in the validity and sacredness of the path. Though I would rather always be present for those sessions, being there virtually is a wonderful thing.
