"ויגש אליו יהודה ויאמר בי אדני ידבר נא עבדך דבר
באזני אדני ואל יחר אפך בעבדך כי כמוך כפרעה..."
SHABBAT VAYIGASH: Practicing approaching others
When Hashem is IN ME
בי א-דונ
Hashem exists inside of me
Then soft and pleasant words come out
א-ד-ו-נ-י
in Me
In the word A-D-N-Y
Hashem’s name
A-D-N-Y
When Hashem is in me
I have divine light - Ohr Eloki in me
I feel the transition
I can reach the place of
Softness…
And lots of love…
and then…. humility
It's all about attitude
When my words are not heard,
I'm checking
Maybe I approached with the "I" האני - the "ego"
and not with "אדוני"
On Shabbat we have the bracha to approach
to meet and come close to our most innermost self
(to elevate our relationships)
To unite להתאחד
🤍
The goodness of your private relationships
Has a mashpia / influence on the success of the chayalim
It's worth making an effort 🫂
(Flowing translation)
ORIGINAL:
"בי אדוני"
במילה אדוני
יש את שם
א-ד-נ-י
כשה' בתוכי
יש בי אור אלוקי
אני מרגישה את המעבר
את ההשגה
רכות
והרבה אהבה
ואז ענוה
הכל עניין של גישה
כשדבריי לא נשמעים
אני בודקת
אולי ניגשתי עם "האני" -"האגו"
ולא עם "אדוני"
השבת נתברך לגשת
להתקרב
להתאחד
🤍
הטוב במערכות יחסים הפרטיות שלך משפיע על הצלחת חיילי צה"ל .
כדאי להתאמץ 🫂
“From Healing the Heart with Rabbanit Rachel Bezek"
Rav Morgenstern:
“The study is not the main goal, rather it is the doing.” And anyone who has merited to study Torah and delight in some degree of dveykus must check himself constantly to ensure that he feels humble before every other Jew he meets. This is reflected in the words of the Divrei Chaim and the Baal HaSulam, that if a person wants to know if he is on the straight path or if he has veered into crooked ways, he must examine what his behavior is like toward other Jews. In our relationship with Hashem, it is all too easy to engage in self-deception and convince ourselves that all is well. Therefore, the main test is in how free we are from conflict with our fellow Jews. …
we must constantly take care to remove every shred of pride over others from our hearts. The greatness that can be discerned in our fellow Jews should be a mirror reflecting to us Hashem’s greatness, and we must always try to strip away the external and illusory reality so that we can seek after Hashem’s glory and minimize our own.
