THE POETRY OF 'NIGHT'  [**Jacob woke up and realized –how awesome is this Place…and he didn't ever know – that from that moment--- it will be his legacy for himself and all of us for the duration of The Long Exile Night ----to show us how to survive and thrive in the Night –in the 'Arvit' prayer consciousness **]  Dear children of the night…..lost and found explorers just trying to get it right this time….fallen heroes caught up in the slipstream-----no ---things are not as they seem to the naked eye---unless you can see beyond this setback, beyond this discouragement---and instead—take courage in the light at the edge of the dawn…yes I know it is cold and dark----

*****where Heaven meets Earth    where our true selves emerge    where all souls   and all prayers    converge    ****/and we cast our lot with You    what else can we do   If I forget thee    let my right arm wither    for you are my heart    you are my sister    my one and only    to you I give    all my love   in you   I am one    with The One Above

WHERE HEAVEN MEETS EARTH    *****at the center of it all   in the apex of connection    is found the sacred space    the holy place    the focus of the human race    *****thousands of years   millions of tears    have brought us here    never to fear again    we've come home to her    for good

COULD IT BE THAT I PASSED BY THAT HOLY PLACE                *Could it be That he passed the holy place That I passed the holy place That you passed the holy place?!     *The bridge between upper Jerusalem and lower Jerusalem The bridge  Between the heaven and earth The bridge  Where all the abundance comes down to our world The bridge Where All the people are climbing up to Gan Eden The bridge That opens us up to the parallel worlds The Bridge That we walk through in our lives to get to the other side     *Could it be ? How could it be? how could we not see?!     *The whole world interincluded All the souls interincluded all of history interincluded into the Rock the foundation Rock  into the rock of THE PLACE  HAMAKOM     *and the entire human race  waits breathlessly for us to be  in that Place  in that sacred Space from now  till the end of time and beyond

A LADDER     ***a ladder     planted on earth     reaches up     to the highest heights     ***those in the know     know how to see Heaven     on Earth     ***those in the know     know how to see     holiness in the mundane     ***those in the know     know how to navigate     the endless light     ***those in the know     know how to see Gd speaking     in all that happens     day and night     ***those in the know  know how to penetrate the mystery

THE PLACE     *He woke up  He asked, Is Hashem “B’Makom Haze” (in this PLACE)?     *I didn’t know G-d was found in a place where a person’s heart was hard as the stones That I laid my head upon     *I didn’t know that we can have  the ladder  that was planted in the ground and reaches the highest heights     *I didn't know  that the earthly mundane things that the , nighttime times in my life,  can be elevated to the highest heights     *I didn't know  that from from  the smallest baby steps we can reach to the highest heights     *I didn’t know  that G-d was found in the midstof confusion in the thickness of delusion in the blackness of despair     *but now I know from this Place  that G-d is truly found  everywhere

Lessons about our lost Sparks \ soul parts redeemed to us by the One Above in exchange for our love     Lessons about how we have an important essential drive to bridge Heaven and Earth [* Seek out all types of EARTH situations and infuse them with HEAVEN situations such as G-dliness and Infinity and Eternity When you think thoughts contemplate their Divine source When you take action contemplate the Divine response When you speak to someone Speak in a way that would find favcr in the Eyes of Gd

LESSONS     Yaakov -- dreamed a dream He saw a ladder stretching from Earth up to Heaven with Angels going up and down A Prophetic dream An analogy interpreted many ways Each way teaching life changing life guiding lessons;     Lessons about the lengths of our exiles     Lessons about how our prayers are arousing the heavenly realms to deliver to us abundance and salvation

there's only one way to reframe-----that at the heart of it all---we are being called upon to learn the lessons—or to keep going through more school of hard knocks sessions until we start seeing beyond the seeming happenstance---and realize that it's all customized intentions designed to grab our attention that there is no one or no thing else guiding our lives ---aside from the One who is turning day into night …what an awesome sight for the ones who open their eyes to truly see….

THE POETRY EXPLORING THE LESSONS AND ANALOGIES OF JACOB'S LADDER AND THE PLACE          Dear Biblical investigators….dear lovers of the timeless analogies…dear seekers of the ancient situations that fascinate our imaginations and test our resolve to transform our life's tribulations to realizations of the Divine Hand working it's way through us , into us and all around us---and in response to our seeming unique , individual challenges -----

Warning! EARMUFFS for the children!... please don't freely listen to this shiur on your house speakers. There are a lot of freaky and super-not-pretty commonalities between the parsha and these crazy times... and a lot of profound lessons about enslavement and subjugation... AS we taste the darkness of the exile, both in our personal lives and in the parsha, let us pray... 'some say that Hashem sent the Jewish people into exile so He could bring them out with a display of the most spectacular miracles the world has ever seen' (Deutsch).... may it be so! Thank you JIC Israel Shiur & Beer, Johnny Stross and some mid-shiur shout-outs to some fellow truth seekers in this shiur Leah Rivka Sand Soetendorp, Avnei Shelem Yaakov Fauci Yehoishophot Oliver Carolyn Croft Shlomo and Shammai Siskind and some other Jedi Light Warriors that shall remained unnamed...
