Don't be like Korach -- warning against neutralizing gender!

HH

Moshe told Korach
 קרח טז:ה) בקר וידע ה' את אשר לו)
In the morning G-d will make known who will serve Him.
Rashi brings a Medrash:
בקר - אמר להם משה: גבולות חלק הקדוש ברוך הוא בעולמו, יכולים אתם להפך בקר לערב? כן תוכלו לבטל את זו, שנאמר (בראשית א) ויהי ערב ויהי בקר... ויבדל. כך (דברי הימים כג) ויבדל אהרן להקדישו וגו' עכ"ל
Moshe told them that HY put borders in His world. Can you change morning into evening? So too can you change this....

The Zohar expounds on this, that the Priesthood which Korach coveted is the aspect of the right (chessed- kindness), whereas a regular leviite is of the aspect of the left (din - judgment). Right and left are not to be changed.

The Torah forbids anyone to be like Korach (17:5).

Thus we learn that one is forbidden to go transgender (besides for the prohibition of castration, and besides for the prohibition of cross-dressing, and besides for all the other moral prohibitions that come part and parcel with this, like not looking at women etc.).

Today especially it is fundamental to be loyal to the true tzadik, and all the movements of feminism, lgbt and the like which wish to contort the standards and roles of the creation are rooted in the sin of Korach - the mutiny, rebellion, and disloyalty to the tzadik.

Who do you listen to Hashem or Nanach?

HH this  young boy was here for Shabbos and he sees how BH I'm completely Nanach, and it's hard for him to inculcate so he asks me, "If an angel told you not to be Nanach would you listen?" So I told him such an angel would be evil, so he asks me, what if Gd Almighty Himself would tell me.... So I told him congratulations, you have taken up the query of the Angel of Death in this weeks parsha (Korach). The Children of Israel sinned and were punished with a plague, Moses commanded Aaron to quickly bring incense to stop the plague, the Angel of Death challenged Aron, how does he dare stop the plague which Gd had decreed, Aron replied that he was following Moses' command, the Angel of Death challenged this by saying, who do you listen to, Gd or Moses?!!!! Aron said, Moses! Moses only says Gd's word (and the ultimate Devine word and will even in the face of other initiatives...)!!!
May we all be saved from the queries of the Angel of Death, and follow Na Nach Nachma Nachman Me'Uman completely and absolutely.

Hierarchy

HH

Korach told Moshe (16:13)
המעט כי העליתנו מארץ זבת חלב ודבר להמיתנו במדבר כי תשתרר עלינו גם השתרר
It is it not enough.... that you make take rule (office) over us as well

The Meshech Chuchma (Litvak Rabbi of Dvinsk) says a beautiful insight. We find in the mishna (Yuma 7:1 and Sota 7:7-8) that when the High Priest or King would read from the Torah before the multitudes, the Torah would be taken out by the President of the Synagogue, who would give it to the Assistant High Priest, who would give it to the High Priest, who would give it to the King. All of this was to bring more honor to the King.

This is what Korach accused Moshe, saying that Moshe was creating new offices and positions between him and the people, only to bring himself all the additional honor which comes with the appointment of every new station.

From this one should learn practically to inculcate different progressions of supernal worlds in his meditations and prayers to G-d. Before speaking to HY, or meditating of His existence, one can gain profoundly heightened consciousness by simply reviewing in his mind quickly the hierarchy of the seven heavens and seven heichulos (chambers).

There is another advantage as well, usually in order to fly one needs to first take some small jumps in progression. Similarly, at least for beginners, it might be hard to bind oneself directly to the Ein Sof B"H immediately, but by first grabbing higher cognizance one at a time, maybe B"H he will be able to go all the way to the Ein Sof B"H.
