520. Water Will Flow from His Buckets

“Water will flow from his buckets.” It is known that “water” is called “Torah.” “From his Dlayim [buckets]” comes from the word Dal [poor/meager].

When a person regards himself as poor, meaning in lowliness, and says, “Since I am a poor and lowly person, I do not deserve to have a clue about the work of the Creator more than regular people,” who follow only what they received from education, and who have no need to understand the Torah and Mitzvot [commandments]. Rather, everything that they received by education when they were little children, they settle for it and engage in Torah and Mitzvot as much as they can, and do not say they have a deficiency for the aim to bestow, etc. Rather, they settle for little.

Likewise, after each time a person works in the left, he sees that he is deficient and is not progressing in the work of the Creator. That is, he does not know more than other people who work in one line.

By a person shifting to the right line, saying that he is not more important than those who are on a single line, and whatever grip on Kedusha [holiness] he has, he appreciates it more than any aspect of meager [Dal], and the Dal becomes a Dli [bucket] with which to pump out the water of Torah, this is the meaning of “Water will flow from his buckets.”
