Shamati (I Heard)

186. Make Your Shabbat a Weekday, and Do Not Need People

I heard

On Shabbat [Sabbath], it is forbidden to do work, meaning an awakening from below. And a wise disciple, one who has been rewarded with being the disciple of the Creator, who is called “Wise,” is also considered an awakening from above by revealing the secrets of the Torah.

Therefore, when an awakening from above comes, that, too, is called “Shabbat.” At that time, the uneducated, meaning the body, has fear, and then there is no room for work in any case.
