Or
Becoming a semblance of God. (leviticus: tazria)
Kabbalah teaches that the world was created as a broken vessel; Hashem/God constricted himself and hid His good in the brokenness of the world. Reb Natan of Breslov says that our highest task is to choose to see His Light, to choose to let in and partner with Hashem, even when he is hidden. Our laws and customs, in ways so mysterious and in ways very obviousβ literally turning our physical bodies into ritual spiritual objectsβ are the most powerful reminders we have to keep making that choice to strive for something higher.
To not let ourselves believe that we are only creatures, that we are only animals, driven only by physical instincts. The Torah teaches us how to free ourselves from our self-imposed slavery, to take actions toward holiness, freedom, and ultimate oneness.Β
Man is but dust of the earth, Adamah, but through the struggle and fight to spiritualize reality we become Adameh la-Elyon, a semblance of God.Β
