Daily Tanya Monday 15th Elul Igeres Hakodesh 14: The love of the Holy Land and its special Divine level

🔥 Rekindling Love for the Holy Land

• The text calls to awaken a deep, fiery love for Eretz HaKodesh (the Holy Land).
• This love should burn passionately within every individual, as if God’s spirit has freshly descended upon us.

🙌 Generosity and Divine Spirit

• The people are inspired to give generously to God, year after year, with increasing abundance.
• This reflects a spiritual elevation, likened to the attribute of “Kodesh HaElyon” (Supreme Holiness).

🌍 The Ever-Renewing Light of the Land

• Eretz HaKodesh is constantly illuminated and renewed by divine light.
• The verse “God’s eyes are upon it from the beginning of the year to the end” is examined, questioning why it doesn’t say “forever.”

🧠 Divine Wisdom and Creation

• The explanation draws from “God founded the earth with wisdom,” referring to the upper and lower spiritual realms.
• The upper land represents “memale kol almin” (filling all worlds), while the lower is “Eretz Cheifetz” (desired land), also called “Eretz HaChaim” (land of life).

💡 Source of Life and Divine Illumination

• The vitality of the land comes from “Chochmah Ila’ah” (Supernal Wisdom), the source of divine life.
• Each year, a new light descends from this wisdom, one that has never illuminated before.

📯 Rosh Hashanah and Renewal

• On the eve of Rosh Hashanah, the previous year’s light returns to its source.
• Through shofar blowing and prayer, a new, higher light is drawn down to illuminate the upper land and all its inhabitants.

🌌 Infinite Divine Light

• God and His wisdom are one, known as “Or Ein Sof” (Infinite Light).
• This light is endlessly elevated, with no limit to its greatness and vitality.

🕊️ Daily Spiritual Elevation

• Every day during morning prayer, new and higher divine intellects (mochin) are drawn down.
• These are not the same as the previous ones—they are loftier and more refined.

🕰️ Cosmic Cycles and Rosh Hashanah

• Just as the world progresses through the 6,000-year cycle, so too does each Rosh Hashanah bring a new spiritual elevation.
