Identifying one's "bashert" is often not so simple. Five of this week's articles delve into this subject. The other two topics, daily prayer and paying wages on time, are also notable themes in this week's Reading. Dedication
For the soul-elevation of R. Shabtai Teicher
who provided the commentary for the first eleven chapters of our Shaar Gilgulim/"Gate of Reincarnations" series (as well as authoring several other articles on this site) on the occasion of his 2nd yahrzeit this week, on 5 Kislev (Thursday) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ And to the staff and participants in the ASCENT retreat a few weeks ago, "Finding Your Soulmate," which was a supporting motivation for the theme of this week's issue. |
