Understanding the unique times we are in

You know, the easiest thing to do, is to not know.
For to know, is to accept a challenge.
The Rebbe has told us – and he is the one who does know – that the avodah of birurim ended.
What does this mean?
We all know – at least those familiar with Kabbalah/Chassidus) that the service of the Jewish people was to refine the corporality of the physical, elevating it out of its selfish, to a selfless state.
As the Rebbe said – post the holocaust, Jews went worldwide, and there brought with them, their high ethical standards, refining the very last darkness and the world is completely ready for Moshiach.
We also know the Rebbe said, Moshiach has arrived.
So then the question is – what is the avoda? – current project.
As the Rebbe quotes, “Harder than it is to take the Jews out of exile, is to take exile out of the Jews” – for as mentioned, it is most comfortable to not know.
But to know, though far more challenging, is infinitely more rewarding.
Are you ready?
Know this – today we have entered into the Atzmus realm – a realm in which it doesn’t matter where you are – how much good or evil, how many mitzvos or lack thereof – for in Atzmus, light and darkness are equal – rather, the time we are in, is of an entirely new paradigm – it’s all about eternal growth.
Now growth means, there is no static – there is no place – if you ARE; then you are not growing.
The most you can say about a growing person is, that he is not static.
