SF - The Perfect Harmony of the Universe

The Perfect Harmony of the Universe The universe and all its various components work together in perfect harmony. From time immemorial, the fundamental elements have never failed to comply with HaShem's Will to provide an ideal environment for man. The sun rises every day at its appointed time, and illuminates the earth. The waters of the ocean keep within their boundaries, never covering the dry land. The countless miracles of the human body grant man a healthy and wholesome existence. Lesson: If one of the forces of the universe would stray from HaShem's command, man would not be able to thrive.  May we be inspired to faithfully serve HaShem, so that the natural forces will continue to serve us and provide us with the goodness of existence. Visualization: Envision the countless stars keeping their orbits in perfect harmony. Imagine what would occur if one star collided with the earth. Strengthen your commitment to be pleasing to HaShem, so that He will bless you with happiness, health, and every success.

SF - The Warmth of Avraham

The Warmth of Avraham "And HaShem appeared to Avraham in the fields of Mamre,  and he was sitting in the entrance of his tent, like the heat of the day" (Bereishis 18:1). The phrase, "like the heat of the day," requires on explanation. The Torah likens Avraham Avinu to the sun: he was a spiritual luminary who illuminated the entire world. The verse conveys that he was sitting near the entrance of his tent, in order to invite wayfarers into his home for a sumptuous meal.  Lesson: Avraham Avinu's wonderful acts of loving kindness and pleasant personality, warmed the hearts of all mankind, like the glow of the golden sun. Visualization: Envision Avraham Avinu inviting you into his tent for a meal. Notice how he speaks to you with honor, care and respect. Sense how the warmth of his heart fills the whole world with love, compassion,  and kindness.

SF - The Power to Bless

The Power to Bless "And you will be a blessing" (Bereishis 12:2). The meaning of this verse is that HaShem entrusted the power of blessing other people to Avraham.  Previously, HaShem blessed whomever He chose, but from now on Avraham will have the merit to bless whomever he so wishes. Why did HaShem transfer the power of blessing to a human being? Avraham Avinu mastered the trait of loving-kindness; he held love for every person, and constantly performed acts of kindness to all of HaShem's creations. Therefore, HaShem saw it was appropriate for Avraham, who loved all mankind, to be the source of blessings. Lesson: The love, care, and joy that we hold for others, increases the power of our blessings that we evoke on their behalf . Visualization: Envision love and goodness for all people flowing from your heart. In turn, may the "blessings of Avraham" bring unbounded goodness upon us and all of "Klal Yisrael."  (Based on Rashi as explained in Da'as Torah) Click Here  to view the Salant Mussar Library Collection L"N Rav Yochanon Mordecai Ben Ephraim and Moras Esther Leach bas Yehudah Refuah Shleimah Yochanon Baruch ben Fruma Ettta Leiba Zlota bas Chana  Shalom Yoseph ben Leiba Zlota Riva bas Henya Zivia bas Raizel Leah Hadassah bas Michal Chana Chava Bas Michal Chanah Harriet Bat Sophie Lee Mier chai ben margalit j"avayeer Yehuda ben hannah Leah dina bat Ziporah  Rina bat sara  Esther Yael chaya bat leah Liza  STAY CONNECTED:

As Gerações de Noé

Em Memória de Alter Yossef ben Shmuel, Hanne Bruche bat Hazel, Samuele ben Yossef, Samuel ben Avraham, Regina bat Alter, Braindel bat Shmuel Biniamin e Lea bat Michael Z"L e-Mussar Sabedoria para o Crescimento Pessoal

 

 

À  LUZ  DO  MUSSÁR

      

       

       

      

"Estas são as gerações de Noé (Noach):

 Noé era um homem justo" (Bereshit 6:9)

 

 

 

       

        A porção semanal da semana passada – que tratava sobre a Arca de Noé – se inicia com o seguinte versículo: "Estas são as gerações de Noé (Noach): Noé era um homem justo".

        O nome Noach significa (em hebraico) algo agradável e gentil. A essência da justiça e retidão de Noé era ser ele uma pessoa agradável e fácil de gostar. Ele demonstrou uma inflexível integridade e um cuidado e preocupação incansáveis por todas as criações de D'us durante o ano que durou o episódio do Dilúvio. Além disso, Noach era confiável e honesto em todas as suas relações interpessoais. Sempre que se comprometia a fazer algo, com certeza seria realizado. 

        A afabilidade e boa índole de Noach permeavam o seu ser e personificavam o ensinamento de nossos Sábios: "'Todo indivíduo que é agradável a seus semelhantes é agradável ao Todo-Poderoso" (Pirkei Avót 3:13).

        Reflitamos sobre as muitas boas características de Noé e como podemos adaptá-las a nós. Talvez iniciemos por sua paciência e afabilidade. Neste caminho, com certeza colheremos frutos positivos em nossas amizades, em nosso relacionamento dentro da família e com todos os demais!
