Description

Based on a teaching of Rav Kook in Oros HaTeshuva. The importance of being a "Ben Aliyah". Many G-d fearing Jews have a deep sadness and can't seem to uncover the reason why. Rav Kook reveals that the Neshama has a natural desire to constantly grow and expand, and when a person fails to do so the Neshama grieves. A person was created to be a "Holaich", always walking forward. And at times even to be "Ratz", running, and even flying! Yet one must know how to move forward with proper Menuchas HaNefesh, with grace and constant peace of mind.
