Baruch Hashem we can use everything we do and everyone we
interact with to help our connection with Hashem. In Intro to Psychology at
Baruch College we looked into the chapter on the study of behavior. This
chapter included the framework behind the brain and the human nervous system.
As common knowledge explains, our bodies have been created
Hashem through an extraordinary amount of chochma
and the highest upon highest forms of wisdom. We can simply see this
through the entowrk of neurons and nerves throughout the human body. Forget
mastering the are of the human brain, that alone already puts our minds at work
that is too much to handle.
So how do nerves/neurons work? Basically there is an
electric current that runs through our body along connecting neurons from a
certain point all the way up to the brain and back down. For example, typing on
the keys on my keyboard right now creates an endless amount of electricity to
flow throughout the millions of neurons in my fingers all the way to my brain
and back all in ultra quick speed so the body can function with the Help of
Hashem properly.
What does this have to do with the Torah, with Judaism and
with our daily lives? In order for something to function properly, and in our
example it is the human body with the appropriate neurons and electric current;
we must have action potentials (which is what the active electric current is
called) in order to begin the flow of electricity to ignite these neurons to
send throughout the body information to the brain. In our lives what makes us live,
and most importantly who helps us live properly? Besides for Hashem (obviously)
who gives us life and practically everything we own, we have our Rabbis to
direct us to the proper life of connecting with Hashem on an appropriate
spiritual level at different times.
The action potential to ignite these communications and
relationships is the Holy Torah that in the learning of Torah we bring down to
the world more Shefa or spiritual
energy to positively influence the entire world to run on a more healthy and
spiritual platform of energy. The actual electricity that flows from neuron to
neuron is the Rabbis throughout history. Many people always complain how it is
not ideal for people to go learn Torah all day. But let’s ask a logical
question: If we didn’t have these people literally giving up their lives to
learn Torah, then who will do it? Will we have (with all respect) Christopher
from our Science class at College learning Torah to continue its foundation and
roots in our everyday lives to pass it on to the next generation? I don’t think
so. The realy learning and real Torah values and principles are founded in the
Batei Midrash (Torah Learning Centers) throughout the world. Without a
lifetime’s effort of engagement in the Torah we really can’t reach the Torah’s
roots and true meaning.
Therefore we must appreciate appreciate appreciate that we
have spiritually enormous Rabbanim to direct us to a life of happiness with a
true connection to G-d.
Baruch Hashem that He always
sees the good in us and wants us to move forward in our connection with Him, so
He sends us Rabbis to direct us to our spiritual goals and reach our true
potentials and meaning in life. This is all running under huge amounts of
Rachamim from Hashem. Can I really say I deserve all this spiritual information
and a spiritual lifestyle? Obviosuly Not! It’s a privilege to be Jewish and we
don’t even appreciate it. But B’H He will open our hearts to understand that
its truthfully such a big gift to be born Jewish and live according to the Torah
HaKdosha!
Shabbat Shalom!
B’H Much Simcha (happiness).
