Kumi Ori (29) - Who is a Jew vs. What is a Jew

The task of our generation is to present a much more all-encompassing Torah to the world. The soul won't settle for less

Once the soul taps into a situation that was created to awaken it from the slumber, a new world of freedom begins

Any culture that attempts to distance one from hearing the cry of their own soul is a culture that will eventually fall. The question is, how long will it last?

When Pharaoh senses we get in touch with our soul, which is eternal, free, and G-dly, he adds the workload to ensure we don't get too in touch with it.

Where do we see this in our lives today?

Everyone wants feel real and authentic, but without discovering our true identity, there is not much one can do when it comes to being loyal to the self.

The question of identity is not just a topic that has taken the world by storm, it is what the Jewish soul has been waiting to be addressed for thousands of years. Now, that we are home in Eretz Yisrael, it must be addressed in the most sensitive and powerful way.

Wanting something new, while admitting that you don't know exactly what that looks like is not a contradiction. It's a transition into a new realm of living. It may feel threatening, but it's the promising sound of redemption. 

That which satiates our soul is never meant to be stagnant. Internalizing this is the key to understanding where we go form here in Eretz Yisrael.

What does a world void of truth tell us about the final stage of redemption?

We are all moving toward an era where we simply cannot ignore the dreams of holiness we each have inside of us. These dreams have been neglected, but it is now time to find out how to tap into them.
