Description

Sheva yipol tzaddik v’kam. (A tzadik falls seven times and gets back up). Failure is an inseparable part of binyan (building) in avodas (service of) Hashem. What is a true baal teshuvah (repentant)? Just when we reach a higher level, our old difficulties come back. Doing teshuvah on how we did teshuvah. There are no shortcuts if you truly want to gain a level in our avodah. A deep conversation between the Vilna Gaon and his talmid about going into a self-imposed galus (exile).
