Questions for today:
We learned of a heartfelt humility that connects us to the Creator – infinitely. What physical tool is there for us to bring that immeasurable influx into our material reality?
We learned yesterday that when a person repents their humility opens up a spigot to the creator's true infinite kindness, and we can access every opportunity in the Torah in an instant.
What action can we do to bring that access from heartfelt inspiration, into the physical world?
- Physical acts of charity.
There are different levels of the Creator that relate to the world. Eg. we say, “the Creator created the world for glory”. In this context, we are referring to a level of the Creator where the glory of the world is relevant.
We also say that “the Creator created the world out of kindness”. In this context, we are discussing a level of G-dliness, where the world is completely irrelevant.
How do we access that level of G-dliness?
When we give charity, we are obviously not giving it for any personal benefit. However, there is a higher level. This is where we give without even looking at the level of the recipient at all.
We don’t check if they work or their life style. We give to “somebody who has nothing”.
This act enables us to draw down the generosity of the Creator that's truly above any measurement in the world.
