Yesterday’s CLD:
The Ramban writes in Iggeret
HaRamban [the famous pamphlet he wrote to his son over 1,000 years ago]
that each individual who reads the pamphlet everyday will have all his/her
prayers answered! What does the Ramban mainly discuss in his pamphlet? The
power of anava, modesty and its
importance for every Jewish person take upon themselves a lifestyle of anava with Hashem.
Pesakh is all about bringing ourselves down to a level of
REAL modesty. Where do we see this in our face? The Matzah, Matzvot are
unleavened bread, which represents the individual’s control of their
characteristic traits and attitudes/behaviors to be filled with anava instead
of the ga’ava (self-pride, haughtiness).

| The Ramban |
We also say everyday in Pitom HaKetoret that Hashem does not
want honey or yeast in the Korbanot (animal sacrifices), because we do add
certain foods/items to the Korbanot beside the animal itself (such as oil, wine,
spices, etc.). What does the Seor
represent? It represents the ga’ava, the self-pride and haughtiness attitude of
“I did it myself” and “from my own strength this was accomplished.” Hashem
HATES people like this. The ultimate characteristic trait is ANAVA, modesty,
and that is why Moshe Rabbenu brought down the Torah and took the entire nation
of Israel out of Egypt > because as the Torah testifies he was the most
humble man that ever lived.
Be’ezrat Hashem this PEsakh, the holiday of bringing ourselves
to the level of Matzot, UNleaveaned bread, we should really reach a level of
Anava. This Anava will lead us to all channels of success, health and
happiness!
Judaism=Think.
