The Alef Kabbala Group (25 May 2010) explored a discourse by the Lubavitcher Rebbe said in 1974 for Sedra Behaalotecha on 15 Sivan, the day Rabbi Yosef Yitzhak Schneersohn, the 6th Lubavitcher Rebbe, was arrested by the Communist NKVD in Russia in 1927, for the 'crime' of teaching and strengthening Judaism. The discourse speaks of the 7 lights of the Menorah as representing the souls of the Jewish people, and also the heavenly luminaries. Through the soul expressing its service of G-d, with love and awe, despite (or even because of) the travails of Exile, it reaches exalted levels and has an effect on the whole cosmos.
