CLD #843


Sometimes during a flight people begin to worry when the plane hits turbulence and they start praying and turning their emotions, feelings and efforts to Hashem. Instead of becoming stressed out and yelling into a terrifying outrage people calm down and begin to wait patiently for the shaking and fear to go away.

The Yetzer Hara before Pesakh is also at full throttle trying to bring fights, arguments, mahlokot, and just negative energy into the world for the Jewish people before Pesakh comes in. We all know that Pesakh and the month of Nissan (the month we are currently in) is a time of Geula (redemption) where we have extra spiritual strength to go against the evil powers of Pharoah, which represents the evil powers of the impure spirituality.

What did we say happens during turbulence? People do get scared but they turn to Hashem in a clam fashion and KNOW that it will pass! The same thing goes for these seven days ahead of us that mark the week before Pesakh. We need to be cautious for signs of the Yetzer Hara (Evil Inclination) to try to ruin the high spirits of Pesakh and at the same time know that if we are with Hashem throughout the cleaning and preparations, then IT WILL PASS!

Pesakh is a week away. This means that we have a week to prepare for the enormous kedusha (holiness) that is about to enter the world. How do we do this? We begin by preparing ourselves to become a keli kibul a vessel that is without any impure obstacles in front of it to let Hashem fill us up with kedusha, yirah and tahara (purity, holiness and fear of Heaven)!

Shavua Tov!
Judaism=Think.
