· Elul Observances

As the last month of the Jewish year, Elul is traditionaly a time of introspection and stocktaking -- a time to review one's deeds and spiritual progress over the past year and prepare for the upcoming "Days of Awe" of Rosh HaShanah and Yom Kippur.

As the month of Divine Mercy and Forgiveness (see "Today in Jewish History" for Elul 1 [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=82D812423E55C5EA09D70C7155B2813B&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ]) it is a most opportune time for teshuvah [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=8F7B2B81077464A256E760C5F3AB0BE9&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ] ("return" to G-d), prayer [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=ECF5B0DA9A6C56D8D50E2066DE400B88&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ], charity [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=89E17BCA4992065976C4C6572FEA5C92&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ], and increased Ahavat Yisrael [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=0174735EF49B56FF56595D04AABF7227&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ] (love for a fellow Jew) in the quest for self-improvement and coming closer to G-d.

Specific Elul customs include the daily sounding of the shofar (ram's horn) as a call to repentance. The Baal Shem Tov [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=9CADF8541125193FC2901076F992F207&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ] instituted the custom of reciting three additional chapters of Psalms [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=86F01DF34672761F06D3D7FFD89DFA14&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ] each day, from the 1st of Elul until Yom Kippur (on Yom Kippur the remaining 36 chapters are recited, thereby completing the entire book of Psalms).

Elul is also the time to have one's tefillin [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=32F1DA160609C1EAF8851EEB768D0934&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ] and mezuzot [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=DCEDB1D11FD66E290819F2F89DF5EDEB&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ] checked by an accredited scribe to ensure that they are in good condition and fit for use.

· Washington Responds to Newport Jews (1790)

The sexton of the Hebrew Congregation of Newport, Rhode Island, wrote a heart warming letter to George Washington, on behalf of the Jewish community welcoming the President on his visit to Newport. In his letter, he expressed a vision of an American government that would permit all religions to live side by side in harmony, giving all its citizens the freedom to practice their religions.

On August 18, 1790, President Washington responded:

The Citizens of the United States of America have a right to applaud themselves for having given to mankind examples of an enlarged and liberal policy: a policy worthy of imitation. All possess alike liberty of conscience and immunities of citizenship. It is now no more that toleration is spoken of, as if it was by the indulgence of one class of people, that another enjoyed the exercise of their inherent natural rights. For happily the Government of the United States, which gives to bigotry no sanction, to persecution no assistance, requires only that they who live under its protection should demean themselves as good citizens, in giving it on all occasions their effectual support.

...May the Children of the Stock of Abraham, who dwell in this land, continue to merit and enjoy the good will of the other Inhabitants; while every one shall sit in safety under his own vine and figtree, and there shall be none to make him afraid...

· Sanctification of the Moon

Once a month, as the moon waxes in the sky, we recite a special blessing called Kiddush Levanah, "the sanctification of the moon," praising the Creator for His wondrous work we call astronomy.

Kiddush Levanah is recited after nightfall, usually on Saturday night. The blessing is concluded with songs and dancing, because our nation is likened to the moonâ€"as it waxes and wanes, so have we throughout history. When we bless the moon, we renew our trust that very soon, the light of Gâ€'d's presence will fill all the earth and our people will be redeemed from exile.

Though Kiddush Levanah can be recited as early as three days after the moon's rebirth, the kabbalah tells us it is best to wait a full week, till the seventh of the month. Once 15 days have passed, the moon begins to wane once more and the season for saying the blessing has passed.

· Moses' parents remarry (1394 BCE)

Amram and Jocheved had separated because of Pharaoh's decree that all male Jewish babies be killed. Prompted by their six-year-old daughter Miriam's rebuke ("Pharaoh decreed againsat the males; you decreed against the males and the females") they remarried on the 7th of Elul of the year 2367 from creation (1394 BCE). Moses was born six months and one day later on Adar 7, 2368 (Talmud, Sotah 12b).

DAILY DOSE: The Path of the Humble

B"H


The Path of the Humble
======================

If we were truly humble, we would not be forever searching higher paths on the mountaintops. We would look in the simple places, in the practical things that need to be done.

True, these are places in a world of falsehood. If the world only had a little more light, none of this would be necessary.

But the soul that knows its place knows that the great and lofty G-d is not found at the summit of mountains, but in the simple act of lending a hand or a comforting word in a world of falsehood and delusions.

  • Современное искусство: Интерактивная живопись. Трехмерные картины на выставке 2012 Magic Art Special Exhibition Of China
    Удивительная выставка картин проходит в Ханчжоу, в галерее современного искусства, где на творчество можно не только смотреть, но и стать его частью, приобщившись к прекрасному. В отличие от музеев, картины здесь можно разрешают трогать, фотографировать, и даже топтать ногами - в исключительных случаях. И все потому, что Magic Art Special Exhibition Of China 2012 это экспозиция, где представлены трехмерные, интерактивные работы современных художников.

  • Вокруг света: Необычное хобби: модели кораблей... из человеческих костей
    При виде искусно сделанных моделей кораблей, которые на аукционах коллекционеры покупают за десятки тысяч долларов, закрадывается мысль о том, что у богатых – свои причуды. Однако стоит узнать историю создания этих необычных макетов, желания обладать этими произведениями искусства заметно поубавится. Дело в том, что материалом для этих кораблей послужили кости людей и животных, а сделаны они были руками французских военнопленных, захваченных британцами во время наполеоновских войн.

  • Принт: Зоопарк, готовый на всё ради новых посетителей
    Один из старейших зоопарков мира Buenos Aires Zoo решил напомнить о себе широкой публике и заодно привлечь новых посетителей. Для рекламной компании были созданы забавные плакаты, на которых обитатели зоопарка приглашают к себе в гости жителей города.

  • Современное искусство: Съедобные трупы из теста, шоколада и орехов. Отвратительное искусство скульптора Kittiwat Unarrom
    Мы есть то, что мы едим, утверждает известная пословица. В таком случае, страшно даже представить, что среди нас могут быть люди, с большим удовольствием употребляющие на десерт сдобную выпечку молодого тайского скульптора Киттивата Унаррома (Kittiwat Unarrom), которая в состоянии повергнуть в шок даже опытных патологоанатомов. Скульптор по образованию и потомственный пекарь по профессии, Киттиват Унарром решил объединить две свои страсти в одну, и теперь занимается тем, что выпекает и продает жуткие булки и пирожные в виде разлагающихся трупов, отрезанных голов и прочей расчлененки.

  • Современное искусство: Угловатый Человек-Паук: супергерой из LEGO
    Создатели фигурок из конструктора LEGO редко когда могут похвастаться возможностью из двигать и динамически изменять — этот конструктор мало подходит для указанных целей. Но творчество художника Марка МакКуи (Mark McCooey) кардинально переворачивает эти наши представления о LEGO, ведь он создал копию супергероя по имени Человек-Паук.

  • Современное искусство: Окно в природу. Удивительные диорамы Патрика Якобса (Patrick Jacobs) из серии "Окно" (Window)
    Почувствовать себя Алисой в стране чудес, которая заглядывала в замочную скважину таинственной дверцы, можно на выставке современного искусства, где экспонируется серия творческих работ "Окно" (Window) бруклинского художника Патрика Якобса (Patrick Jacobs). И увидеть если не удивительно красивый сад с пышными розовыми кустами и свежей травой, то зеленые лужайки с клевером и одуванчиками, полянку с опятами и мухоморами, осенний лес и многие другие сюжеты, которые находятся по ту сторону стеклянного окошка. Вот только попасть на эти живописные поля, луга и лесные полянки не представляется возможным. Даже съев пирожок или выпив жидкости из чудо-бутылочки. Все эти пейзажи - талантливые художественные иллюзии, диорамы, которым Патрик Якобс посвящает последние несколько лет своей жизни.

  • Современное искусство: Необычный портреты. Умение мять бумагу от Куми Ямашиты (Kumi Yamashita)
    Всем известна любовь японцев к красоте, изяществу, природе, свету и миниатюре. Вот все эти факторы и объединила художница Куми Ямашита (Kumi Yamashita) в своей серии одних из самых необычных в мире портретов Shadow Portrait, которые делаются из пространственного воображения автора и мятой бумаги.

  • Вокруг света: Маски-шоу на пляже в Китае: шапочки для плаванья face-kinis - модный тренд сезона
    При виде фотографий, сделанных на одном из пляжей Китая, тут же возникает мысль, что оператор присутствовал на съемках культового юмористического сериала «Маски-шоу». На самом же деле появление отдыхающих в странных купальных костюмах на пляжах Циндао в восточной китайской провинции Шаньдун – это новая модная тенденция. В этом сезоне можно было наблюдать множество людей, буквально «упакованных» с головы до ног в необычные купальные костюмы. Его наиболее важный (и в то же время – забавный) аксессуар – лыжная шапочка с прорезями для глаз, рта и носа, которую китайцы называют "face-kinis".

Today's Laws & Customs
======================

· Elul Observances

As the last month of the Jewish year, Elul is traditionaly a time of introspection and stocktaking -- a time to review one's deeds and spiritual progress over the past year and prepare for the upcoming "Days of Awe" of Rosh HaShanah and Yom Kippur.

As the month of Divine Mercy and Forgiveness (see "Today in Jewish History" for Elul 1 [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=582771B7DF06F573C19A1AD74246EAD1&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ]) it is a most opportune time for teshuvah [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=13FEB26E7D056B2445DAB9295B8A9773&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ] ("return" to G-d), prayer [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=F908BB28CB9B5B190C67C76004D73A2C&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ], charity [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=FB32172E8FB58DD6976914DE2D322E97&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ], and increased Ahavat Yisrael [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=35E993B03897F1C2D77049FDF9D0B53A&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ] (love for a fellow Jew) in the quest for self-improvement and coming closer to G-d. Chassidic master Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=C2EFCCCF5D585DE3B549AA9F808EC537&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ] likens the month of Elul to a time when "the king is in the field" and, in contrast to when he is in the royal palace, "everyone who so desires is permitted to meet him, and he receives them all with a cheerful countenance and shows a smiling face to them all."

Specific Elul customs include the daily sounding of the shofar (ram's horn) as a call to repentance. The Baal Shem Tov [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=D3677501FAEA254A96A759B88888EDE0&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ] instituted the custom of reciting three additional chapters of Psalms [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=656F64D10D0799F4436E086FA81ACA5D&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ] each day, from the 1st of Elul until Yom Kippur (on Yom Kippur the remaining 36 chapters are recited, thereby completing the entire book of Psalms).

Chapter 16 [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=400660F1247E15D3AE6F2442A3140439&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ]

Elul is also the time to have one's tefillin [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=F1DEA4018788BC58DD4377E7A7D5A49B&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ] and mezuzot [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=545BBDB3878AF4D1D0B2245EB3EBF915&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ] checked by an accredited scribe to ensure that they are in good condition and fit for use.

The Avoda (divine service) of the businessman: to arouse within himself the faith and perfect trust in the One who feeds and sustains all flesh, that He will provide him with an ample livelihood. To be truly happy and content, as though all his needs were already in hand

Does G-d Help Those Who Help Themselves?

Elul 5, 5772 * August 23, 2012

JEWISH.TV AUDIO & VIDEO
=====================================================

Are There Any Good Kosher Wines? (By Shmuel Lewis)


Wine enthusiast and scholar, Rabbi Shmuel Lewis, goes through the basics of appreciating wine and teaches spiritual life lessons at the same time.

Does G-d Help Those Who Help Themselves? (By Mendel Kaplan)
Studying Rashi: Parshat Shoftim

The Torah says (Deut. 18:13) "Be wholehearted with your G-d" in contrast to those who seek fortune tellers and other ways of knowing the future. Rashi explains that G-d doesn't want us to probe the future, but to simply accept whatever comes. But aren't we supposed to be proactive? Doesn't G-d expect us to do our part as well? How is this to be understood?

Spiritual Motherhood

The Talmud teaches: "Let that man be remembered for good, and Rabbi Yehoshua ben Gamla is his name. Until he came, only children with fathers had the opportunity to study Torah, whereas orphans did not. But Rabbi Yehoshua established Torah schools in every province and city for all children, even as young as six and seven."

How and When to Judge Another (By Chana Weisberg)
A Taste of Text—Shoftim

There is always some explanation, some justification, some perspective for another's behavior. If you cannot see it, you are not fit to be a judge.

Is Your Body Your Property? (By Moshe New)
Parsha Shoftim

An analysis of the legal difference between ownership of property and the proprietary rights one has over one's own body. We look particularly closely at laws in Maimonides' Laws of The Sanhedrin. (Based on Likutei Sichos vol. 34, p. 106)

Elul Acronyms (Aaron L. Raskin)
Letters and Numbers of the Festivals

The name of the Hebrew month Elul is spelled alef-lamed-vav-lamed. This corresponds to five different Scriptural acronyms that represent five areas of special emphasis in Elul: 1) Torah study, 2) prayer, 3) acts of kindness, 4) repentance, and 5) redemption.

The One Percent and Redistribution of Wealth (By Nochum Mangel)
Election 2012: Class 1

Is wealth a mark of sin, a sign that a person has greedily taken too much and necessarily impoverished others? Is poverty a sign of laziness, an outer indication of a poor character? We explore the Jewish view on why there is inequality in wealth, and what should we do about it.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK: Is My Date My Soulmate?

B"H


Elul 5, 5772 * August 23, 2012

========================================
Q U E S T I O N O F T H E W E E K
========================================

Is My Date My Soulmate?
By Aron Moss
=======================

Dear Rabbi,

I am seeing this guy very seriously, but one thing bothers me. How do I know if he is my soulmate? How can I be sure that he is the other half of my soul? I am terrified to make a decision without being certain. I have heard of a clairvoyant who can tell you if you are soulmates based on your birthdays and past lives. Should I go to her, just to be sure?

Answer:

Everything has its time. There are times when we should think about who our soulmate is. And there are times when we shouldn't. The problem is, most of us get the timing the wrong way around.

When you are alone and single, and it seems that there are no prospects for love on the horizon, it is vital to remember that you have a soulmate. Someone out there was made for you, and you for them. They are waiting to meet you. Maybe it will be tomorrow, maybe next week, maybe you already met them and you just have to open your eyes. It is a matter of time before you meet your other half. It will happen.

Without this belief, despair may be a logical conclusion. Maybe I was made to be single, maybe my in-laws decided not to have any children. Who's to say that I will ever get married? The answer: There's someone for everyone. There's always hope. Keep the faith.

The other time in life when the soulmate belief is beneficial is after you are married. Every marriage faces challenges, and every good relationship goes through rough patches. It is at those moments that it is essential to remember that you are married to the other half of your soul. While you think that you chose your spouse, really G-d chose your spouse, He made you for each other, and He led you to meet and fall in love. The decision to marry was divinely inspired, out of your hands, beyond your control. This is what was meant to be; this is the one.

Otherwise, we can spend our lives thinking what would have been. What if I would have married the other guy; what if I would have left her and found someone else? We need to have the conviction that marriage is divinely ordained. This person beside me is my soulmate, the missing half of my soul, and we belong together; it could be no other way. So we had better work things out.

So, when we are alone and losing hope, or when we are married and losing faith, we need to remember that we have a soulmate. But there is a time when the belief in a soulmate can be distracting and unproductive. And that is when we are dating.

When you are in a relationship already, but you haven't made the big step of commitment, at that point the whole soulmate thing can confuse you. You shouldn't be looking for a soulmate then. You need to look at the actual person in front of you. You need to get to know their personality, their character, their values and their aspirations. You can't see their soul. You don't even know what your own soul looks like, let alone your soulmate.

So forget about it. Don't ask yourself, "Is this my soulmate?" Rather, ask whether the human being you are seeing is a good person; do they share your beliefs; is he or she Jewish (if you are); can you communicate; are you going in the same direction; do you want similar things out of life. Who cares when their birthday is, or which star sign they are, or whether they are a reincarnation of your favorite opera singer? None of that will help you in your future together.

Stop looking for signs from heaven. The signs are here on earth. If you have found a connection with someone good for you, go for it, and leave the connection of your souls to G-d.
