The secret truth -a Poilisheh Rebbe once said – “Those who know about Moshiach don’t say, those who say, don’t know; the only ones who both know and say is Lubavitch” – that is, the Lubaviticher Rebbes.

As one reads the Torahs of the Lubavitcher Rebbes, a very clear theme from the Alter Rebbe till the Rebbe, one which (though I am not that well read) have not seen anywhere.
The theme is so extraordinary, it is beyond belief, it defies the imagination, and yet it is occurring everywhere.
What is the ultimate purpose of creation?
Well some will say to serve God; Well what is the ultimate purpose of serving God? – Is this for God’s sake? Which means he has an ego problem or is this for our sake? (which means we do, which makes a lot more sense.)
So obviously the creation of mankind cannot be for God, who doesn’t have physical or emotional needs, rather it is a benefit to mankind; as our sages said, “it is in the nature of love to love,” hence as God is love, he acted lovingly – he has given us something.
So what is this something?
The answer, as the Alter Rebbe begins to emphasize, truly a revolutionary idea – and again going right through all the Rebbes teachings – Dirah Bitachtoinim, a bizarre concept if there ever was one: God desires a home in the nethermost world.
Yet the Rebbe clarifies (and in fact the Alter Rebbe clearly states as well) this means a home in you!
In countless talks, the Rebbe clarifies this concept – God seeks not to obliterate the universe he made – he seeks not that you should become a spiritual being, rather much like a person wandering through a jungle, needs a guide, God simply seeks to guide you!
But how is that possible? – The answer of course begins with a premise – nothing, especially for God, is impossible! – And if you listen carefully, in the chirps of the grasshoppers, in the butterflies movement, in the cicadas song, in the crickets melody, you can discern.
