SF - The Joy of Receiving a Million Dollars in Gold

The journey is beautiful

The Arizal taught that Hashem opened the Gates of Wisdom and ruach hakodesh (Divine inspiration) to him because of his immense joy and happiness while performing the Mitzvot (commandments). The Sefer Charedim explains that one of the essential conditions for fulfilling the Mitzvot is to perform them with great joy and happiness. We should consider the Mitzvot as precious and invaluable gifts that Hashem gives us. Furthermore, the reward we receive for performing the Mitzvot is directly related to the joy we experience while doing them. The Chidah asserts that the reward for the joy experienced during a Mitzvah is greater than the joy derived from the reward of the Mitzvah itself. Rav Chaim Vital suggests that when performing a Mitzvah, one should visualize receiving a million dollars in gold. This perspective will inspire unbounded joy and passion while engaging in the Mitzvah. Today: As you perform a Mitzvah, imagine that someone is giving you a million dollars in gold, and take joy in the act of performing the Mitzvah. Donate May the souls who left this world be remembered for a blessing.
