K'chu imachem devarim v'shuvu el Hashem — take words with you, and return to Hashem. Likutey Moharan, Torah Daled (Torah 4) — Seif Vav, learned be'iyun. A review of the first seifim and then a deep walk through the mechanics of how vidui devarim before a talmid chacham elevates the malchus back to its source. What we cover: The review — me'ein Olam Haba — B'shem ahalel davar, b'Elokim ahalel davar: praising Hashem with both the shem rachamim and the shem din. Now we say hatov vehameitiv on the good and dayan emes on the bad; le'asid lavo it will all be hatov vehameitiv — Hashem echad u'shmo echad. Malchus in galus — the malchus de'kedusha is hidden among the nations, who are yonek from it (why they too call Him Elokim). Our avodah is to elevate that malchus back to k'mlo kol ha'aretz Elokim. Devarim = malchus — every davar, every event in olam hazeh, is devarim. K'chu imachem devarim — take the malchus hidden inside the words and bring it back to Hashem through dibbur, the vehicle with which the world was created (Anochi Hashem Elokecha — the aseres hadibros). Echad is ahava — yediya sheleima is the unification of the chasadim and the gevuros; echad is gematria ahava — revealing Hashem's love even inside the midas hadin (es asher ye'ehav Hashem yochiach). Why we need vidui — the bones — aveiros are nechkak, engraved on the atzamos (va'tehi avonosam chakuka al atzmosam). Every aveira re-scrambles the tziruf of the osiyos of Hashem's dibbur — turning lo yihiyeh lecha into yehi lecha — and carves the broken format onto the bones. The mechanics of vidui devarim — kol atzmosai tomarna: dibbur rises from the bones. Talking it out floats up the engraved osiyos; the talmid chacham rebuilds them into their original tziruf, removing the interference between Elokim and Havaya so the malchus can be reconnected to its shoresh. The rayah from Yehuda — Shema Hashem kol Yehuda: Moshe carried Yehuda's vidui, and it is nechshav as if Yehuda was misvadeh before the talmid chacham (Yehuda = malchus). The avodah in practice — vidui to Hashem (ashamnu, bagadnu…) in the presence of the tzaddik; bringing a struggle to a tzaddik for help is itself a form of vidui devarim. Fire against fire — the source of malchus is fire and the Torah is fire; the yetzer hara comes with fire and interferes. Vidui devarim before the talmid chacham (who is ikar Torah) brings the fire of Torah to extinguish the fire of the yetzer hara. Aveiros break the bones; mitzvos reconnect them.
