Great Article
This is probably the best Diroh be'Tachtoinim/Yaakov Holach leDarcoi article I have ever read. It is inspiring, informative and extremely well written.

brilliant!
Ah! I have been understanding the essence of Cheshvan, and the time to convert all the gain of the High Holidays into action. But, the significance of the 7th day and your articulation of the sanctity of the mundane forges a brilliant clarity. The ability of man to be "spiritual" in a "material" world is the key we all need to use far more often.

7 Cheshvan
When my father passed away on the 7th of Cheshvan, 4 years ago, I wasn't familiar with this special significance of this date. But I knew that it had to be a spiritually significant day, other than his yartzeit, so I went straight to my Chabad calendar, And I began to learn about this timely concept. And your article really added to and enhanced what I've learned so far. So, I'll hook up my printer, press the button, and have something good to say at the farbringen for my Dad's yartzeit later this week.
Thank you!
But haven't we already waited for that last Jew? Don't we deserve Moshiach, like right now?!

No prayer for rain until the last Jew re-entered the Land.No one sacrificed.No one left out.This should be inspiring to us all.
