Within and Beyond

There are two vantage points for G-d: Within and Beyond.

'Within' is the view of the created. Fixed within a defined reality, consumed with its own importance, where things matter and life is real.

'Beyond' is the view of the Creator, detached and transcendent. Where all that has begun has already ended, nothing can assert its significance, for all is nil.

There is also an Essence of both Within and Beyond, neither subject to the narrow view of a finite being, nor biased by the detachment of the Infinite. Neither created nor Creator, neither below nor Above, neither existence nor its absence.

It is the Essence, both Beyond and Within all things. Beyond, because it needs no purpose. Within, because it nevertheless chose one.

Both Within and Beyond breathe with that purpose, the purpose of their very being: That the Essence be revealed from Within.

From the wisdom of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Schneerson, of righteous memory; words and condensation by Tzvi Freeman. To order Tzvi's book, "Bringing Heaven Down to Earth, click here.

Parshah
Chayei Sarah


A bit about death, a lot about marriage and the art of storytelling. Also: sages and commentators pounder the significance of 400 shekels, 10 camels, two bracelets and a ring, a third wife and six more sons, and Chassidic masters discourse on life after death, a disappearing bridegroom and the return of Hagar.
