The Might of Israel
„Only in forgetting ourselves do we remain small and lowly, and forgetting ourselves is forgetting our greatness.”From Orot HaTechiyah 4
The world has been trying to educate us in recent decades that everyone is the same. And this outlook consumes the world and empties it of content. The greatness of the immense spectrum of colors that exists in the world lies in the difference that exists among its hues. The uniqueness of the people of Israel is the connection to the Torah, which contains the different hues and recognizes their power and might. With the Torah, the people of Israel know how to include them all together within their essence. If we forget our essence, we become small. If we return to our essence and remember our role, we will return to our greatness, and the whole world will return to its greatness!
