Yesterday, i wanted to visit the Kingston Bakery Store.
I made a stop at the Judaica store that was open.
I bought a mini book of psalms for my second ride to the Ohel next week. The psalms books were there all in Hebrew. I have no excuses not to read the psalms, before reading my new letter. :-)
20 years that the Rebbe passed away, and i had the feeling that the love that the Lubaba have for him is very deep and strong. I too have the impression that they worship him a lot.
Is there a contradiction with the second commandment?
They thought that it will be the Messiah, but he was not because he is a mortal.
How do you imagine the Messiah?
Do you think that he/she will be human?
My personal thought is that i don't see the Messiah as someone but something very powerful.
Jonathan Sacks, page 81, says something in reference to Exodus book: "Faith is about seeing the miraculous in the everyday, not about waiting every day for the miraculous."
In other words, we are responsible of this world.
Earlier, he says: "They (the rabbis) believed that God left the world incomplete to be completed by humanity. That, in Judaism, is not heresy but mainstream belief."
I see the arrival of the Messiah like the end of this world. We are so bad with this earth. It covers with so much blood, pain… To be better, we can't be human beings with different thoughts, intelligence, different definitions of what is good and bad… How can we find a harmony between human beings?
So, i try to understand, the 'Baruch Hashem' for every thing in every day of life.
We always have the choice, and we have to work for a better world.
The world starts at our door.
I heard many Hasidim to tell me that Hashem wanted this life for them. I don't understand, sorry!
They don't try to change something to their life. Everything is at a loss.
How can you say that if you don't even try?
I was in the Kingston Bakery store and i assisted at a scene very funny.
There was a woman with a wig whose the conversation was loud. She was with two Hasidim to resolve a couple issue. I don't know what was her part in the family of the man, sat in front of her.
She was not a psychologist, but advised the man about the behavior of his wife who apparently, overreacted lately. The man was quiet, and can't talk a lot because of the woman who was talking a lot.
Was she the mother of this man to wash the dirty laundry in public?
The other Hasidic remained standing up and was joking.
I was not the only one to smile, two other Hasidic women did it.
I didn't catch up the whole conversation, i don't actually like listening the gossips.
