Description
P. 305 What does the averag person know about the central aspects of Judaism? Going to where Hashem "lives." The barriers that prevent a person from getting to the tachlis, the purpose, which is dveykus (attachment to ) Hashem. What makes a person an oved Hashem (a serious servant). It's not about rejecting myself, denying myself, giving myself up, but about finding myself within Hashem, growing, fulfilling my potential within Hashem's world and attached to Hashem. The incorrect view of the suffering orthodox Jew. When a Jew leaves Yiddishkeit, what is he really leaving? If a person truly knows Hashem he can't possibly leave him. The terrible mistake of calling Torah-observant Jews Amalek due to a difference in opinion; and who says that one Rabbi's opinion is absolute da'as Torah (the opinion of Torah)? Everybody has mechitzos (blockages) - our task is to work on that.
