### Part 1 — Finding Something New in Torah

- Scene 3 · LM II:105 §1 · paragraph §1.1
  - HE: שָׁמַעְתִּי מֵאֶחָד, שֶׁהִזְהִיר אוֹתוֹ, שֶׁיִּשְׁתַּדֵּל לְעַיֵּן בְּתוֹרָתוֹ, וְיִרְאֶה לְחַדֵּשׁ בְּתוֹרָתוֹ אֵיזֶה דָּבָר,
  - EN (our paraphrase): I heard from someone that the Rebbe urged him to make the effort to look into his teachings and try to find something new in them, as he urged many of his followers.
- Scene 4 · LM II:105 §1 · paragraph §1.2
  - HE: וְאָמַר לוֹ: אִם תִּזְכֶּה לְכַוֵּן אֶל תֹּכֶן כַּוָּנָתִי בְּתוֹרָתִי – מַה טּוֹב, וַאֲפִלּוּ אִם לֹא תּוּכַל לְכַוֵּן כַּוָּנָתִי, אַף־עַל־פִּי־כֵן טוֹב מְאֹד כְּשֶׁזּוֹכִין לְחַדֵּשׁ אֵיזֶה דָּבָר בַּתּוֹרָה, כִּי הוּא תִּקּוּן גָּדוֹל לְהִרְהוּרִים. כִּי כָל הַהִרְהוּרִים בָּאִים עַל־יְדֵי כֹּחַ הַמְדַמֶּה, וְעַל־יְדֵי שֶׁמְּחַדְּשִׁין אֵיזֶה דָּבָר בַּתּוֹרָה, שֶׁזֶּהוּ בְּחִינַת מְדַמֶּה מִלְּתָא לְמִלְּתָא, עַל־יְדֵי־זֶה מְתַקְּנִין פְּגַם הַהִרְהוּרִים שֶׁבָּאִין עַל־יְדֵי הַמְדַמֶּה:
  - EN (our paraphrase): He told him: if you merit to reach the core of my meaning in my teaching, how good. And even if you cannot reach my meaning, still it is very good to find something new in Torah, for it is a great repair for stray thoughts. For all stray thoughts come through the power of imagination; and finding something new in Torah is likening one thing to another, so through it one repairs the damage of the thoughts that come through the imagination.
- Scene 6 · LM II:105 §1 · paragraph §1.3, §1.4
  - HE: גַּם אָנֹכִי בְּעַצְמִי שָׁמַעְתִּי מִפִּיו הַקָּדוֹשׁ כַּמָּה וְכַמָּה פְּעָמִים, שֶׁהִזְהִיר מְאֹד לְחַדֵּשׁ בַּתּוֹרָה, וְאָמַר שֶׁהוּא תִּקּוּן גָּדוֹל מְאֹד מְאֹד עַל הֶעָבָר. וְאָמַר שֶׁאֲפִלּוּ דִּבּוּר אֶחָד לְבַד כְּשֶׁזּוֹכִין לְחַדֵּשׁ, הוּא גַּם־כֵּן טוֹב מְאֹד, כִּי הוּא תִּקּוּן גָּדוֹל מְאֹד. גַּם אָמַר שֶׁהוּא טוֹבָה לְנִשְׁמַת אֲבוֹתָיו שֶׁכְּבָר נִסְתַּלְּקוּ:
  - EN (our paraphrase): I myself also heard from his holy mouth many times that he urged us strongly to find new things in Torah, and said that it is a very, very great repair for the past. And he said that even one single word, when one merits to find it new, is also very good, for it is a very great repair. He also said that it is a kindness for the souls of one's parents who have already passed away.
