Wow

 

Yep another wow moment

 

I just read an article based on the Lubavitcher Rebbe, by Simon Jacobson, that answers the famous query as to why Moses feared going to Pharaoh.

 

We know, the Zohar teaches us, that God taking Moses to Pharaoh, was to get into the quintessence, essential essence of evil.

 

Now I certainly would fear, say going into the very essence of Hitler.

 

But God took Moses there and this is what he saw.

 

Nothing.

 

So if the essence of Hitler, Pharaoh all the previous future and current antisemites is nothing, than pray tell, why the hell do they shout so loud?!

 

But isn’t that the point!

 

What is at the heart of fanaticism, a person who Winston Churchill quite correctly states, “A Fanatic is one who can’t change his mind, and won’t change the subject” – a delusional identity.

 

In other words, as the Previous Rebbe teaches, ego, egotism, haughtiness is actually the lack of healthy self esteem and like a scab bulging from one’s skin, it is the lack of healthy identity that creates unhealthy identity.

 

So what’s the solution to this issue?

 

The answer is healthy self-esteem which as we know many of us lack.

 

And what is healthy self esteem?

 

Healthy self esteem is nothing more though nothing less than redefining identity.

 

Instead of seeing yourself as you, hence fear based as your power is so limited and fanaticism based when your identity is challenged, which caused all wars etc.

 

See yourself for the ultimate truth.

 

Each and everything and certainly each and every person and most certainly each and every Jew is nothing more and certainly nothing less than a representation of God himself within the form – body – that houses the life force, which of course can only come, like the energy running your computer etc. from a energy source – which is of course God himself.
