It is the task of every one of us to elevate all human activity to a Divine purpose. In short, this means being able to connect every human activity with G-d – and this is precisely the purpose of the Torah and its commandments, called mitzvoth in Hebrew. Every human being has the unique ability to connect his entire being with the Creator. Upon achieving this task, he creates a dwelling place for G-d in this world, thereby fulfilling the purpose of creation. As is explained in this book, the worlds of the spiritual and the physical are not in conflict. Their ultimate purpose is that they be fused together with the physical being permeated by the spiritual. The core element of every mitzvah – commandment performance is to take the physical creation and utilize it for a Divine purpose. Thereby a wonderful harmony achieving both in the individual and in the world at large. This is a theme that encompasses all times and places; wherever and whenever a person operates, he is able to utilize the task at hand for its correct and Divine purpose, thus transforming one’s daily life activities into a dwelling place for G-d.

  • English, ‘Priority’ – to the ‘Demands of the Times’ That They Not Be Delayed Until Tomorrow, and Not Delayed Even for Later the Same Day If It Can Be Done Immediately
    Farbrengen With The Rebbe כז 11 Nissan 5742 פארברענגען עם הרבי Free Translation Sicha 3 It is expected of every person since God has given him years of life, to always grow. Primarily to grow in matters of the soul – spiritual pursuits, which comes together with growing a year older. The Alter Rebbe emphasizes in Tanya that “the body is secondary and the soul is primary.” The primary growth must be that of the soul, and as a result, the body grows as well. Many ask about retirement. Unfortunately there are those who don’t even ask, but come to their own conclusions – although, in fact, the question has a proper answer. They say that since one has become a year older – and he is no longer as strong and energetic as he was a year earlier – this gives him the right to yield and decrease in his activities which are relevant to his mission in life. How can this be in this country which was founded upon an energetic work ethic, and where it has been turned into an ideal to exert oneself with vigor? -At times this goal is exaggerated and taken to an extreme – when the object of the pursuit is limited to financial and bodily matters, and that becomes the primary purpose in life.- By contrast, this same country has developed the custom, that when a person becomes forty-some years old, surely when he turns fifty, and certainly when he’s fifty-something, he “earns” the privilege to think about retirement, to decrease his activities which benefit humanity – the true purpose for which he was created.
