LIFESTYLE OF TORAH, MITZVOT VERSUS DARK AGENDA - PART 1

 

We ended the celebration of Simchat Torah in sadness, my feelings are of deep instability, as if I myself had lost a member of my family. Israel's enemies did not just attack the Jewish People, this war is physical [attacking and killing] and spiritual [blocking the Divine light with darkness of terror], see the date chosen for the attack, nothing is by chance, the targets are all linked to HaShem, the evil horde not only killed many innocents physically but destabilized our psyche, but also our spiritual connection with feelings of sadness and hatred, we must return to Torah studies and try to recover to serve HaShem as in reality we always were; "we are" Peace loving, kind and happy. May HaShem keep the Jewish People safe. Amen!

"They" have a dark agenda, like a game, the pieces are in motion, God's enemies are wearing "fake skin", don't be innocent, Trust no one but HaShem! Pray, Pray, Pray and study Torah like never before you did. AND The only hope, request to make is MOSHIACH NOW!!!

Secular Jews, or even Bnei Noach....reinforce your commitment to HaShem, our Father, our King!

We are in physical and spiritual war, do not turn your back, join the physical and spiritual battle, every prayer, study of Torah, mitzvot, tzedakah, acts of kindness, that is, Avodat HaShem is top important for us to win and brings Shalom "Peace".

 

Summary: What to do now?

 

1) "Turn away from evil and do good... [Tehillim 37:27] - We must have a strong Emunah and Bitachon in G-d through Avodat HaShem.

2) HaShem and ourselves know that we are imperfect because of the mistakes and inappropriate behaviors we make and we are fighting to never do them again, but time does not wait for us to be "better", we must do what must be done now with a lot of Faith, our only true hope is in HaShem, Moshiach now!

KABBALAH by Rabbi Avraham Yehoshua ben Yaakov Greenbaum.

 

KABBALAH by Rabbi Avraham Yehoshua ben Yaakov Greenbaum.

The original, most important, most meaningful and accessible Kabbalah text is none other than THE TORAH: The Five Books of Moses, The Prophets, The Writings.

The teachings of Rabbi Nachman are recommended to all who seek the authentic way of the Kabbalah in our times.

"The redemption will come about only through the study of the Torah. And the essential redemption depends upon the study of the Kabbalah"

-- Rabbi Eliyahu, the Vilna Gaon, Evven Shelemah 11:3

The most appropriate place to start the study of Kabbalah study is with the Kabbalah worldview as it emerges from the Bible, Talmud and Midrash, The Zohar, writings of the ARI and Chassidut. Understanding this worldview can help one refine and deepen his faith in God.

The Kabbalah teaches that all Gentiles are enjoined to practice the Seven Universal Laws of the Children of Noah, while Jews are obliged to practice the 613 Commandments of the Torah. Deeper study of the Kabbalah, whether by Jews or Gentiles, is only truly meaningful when each one strives to practice the commandments that apply to him.

The Kabbalah includes general teachings that apply to Jews and Gentiles alike, to enable all mankind to come to know and serve the One God. These include teachings about God's creation of the worlds, about the levels and purpose of their various inhabitants, and about prayer, the universal avenue of approach to God - "for My House will be called the House of Prayer for all the nations" (Isaiah 56:7).

Elijah the Prophet said: "I make the heavens and earth my witnesses that everyone, Israelite or Gentile, man or woman, slave or maid-servant - each according to his or her deeds, so holy spirit rests upon them" (Tanna devey Eliyahu ch. 9).

KABBALAH

(All that G-d has spoken, we will do and we will obey. Exodus 24:7.)

Rabbi Sir Jonathan Sacks was a philosophy graduate of Cambridge University. On one occasion, he was studying Hassidism with a chassidic student...

Albert Einstein taught us that E=MC2. Even if one does not understand quantum mechanics, this equation means that there is a relationship between energy and mass, and mass is a form of energy.

Kabbalah calls this energy Divine creative energy. This means that every physical object is a form of energy that creates it.

Kabbalah helps us to realize and recognize this spirituality of matter, that in every physical thing, even in the inanimate.

It is this “spark” of G dliness that is the true essence and reality of all things and this spark is released and revealed when physical matter is used for a holy purpose or deed in accordance with the will of the Creator in Mitzvah performance. This is the meaning of the Shema Yisrael prayer. When we say, “Hear O Israel, the Lord our G d, the Lord is One,” it is not only a statement of monotheism.

The true mystic is not concerned about going on spiritual ecstasy trips, rather he is more concerned about translating and integrating the spiritual experience to become a better, more productive, and spiritual individual here in this world.
