Alright folks, imagine this: You've got a bird, right? But not just any bird - this is your soul-bird, and you want it to soar up high, through the spiritual skies. Now, what does every bird need to take off? You guessed it—wings! In today's Tanya portion, we're diving into Chapter 40, where the Alter Rebbe gives us the lowdown on the wings of our spiritual journey: intent and passion.
Picture yourself wrapping those tefillin or lighting the Shabbat candles with more than just your hands—you're pouring your heart, your fire, into the action. That's passion, my friends! And intent, well, that's like the GPS for your soul-bird. It guides you to the heights of connection with the Infinite.
Without these wings, our mitzvahs are like a bird that's stuck on the ground—sure, it's alive, but it's not reaching its potential. We have to infuse life, excitement, and direction into every holy act. That's how we live Judaism with every fiber of our being.
So next time you're engaging in a mitzvah, remember: passion and intent are your wings. Let's not just walk through our traditions—let's fly through them, and feel the rush of Judaism in our veins! Now spread those wings and let your soul take flight!
