    Purim Katan: “A good hearted person feasts continuously” - closing sentence of the Code of Jewish Law. Today is Purim Katan yet mini Purim is no small thing.
    It is the ancient source of unharnessed joy, of untainted love.
    Today;
    Without a commandment
    Without obligation
    Without a checklist I open myself up to the Joy that is Purim
    Unrestricted, I allow myself to feel light and happy with
    what isI breath in. I breath out. Tingling with gratitude
    My heart races with the magnitudeSo. Many. Gifts.
    Life. A soul. Purpose. Health. Family. Community. I do this with love.
    I feel the love of my creator
    I feel the love of my source
    I feel love of my community
    I feel love of my family
    I feel love of myself Purim katan
    Without duty
    Without being told
    I do it
    JUST BECAUSE

    Maybe ???

    enough analysis of what this all means. Maybe let it integrate in your being and then it will be understood.

    A thank you...

    Sounds like it’s the ultimate opportunity to really think on Purim katan, what will bring HaShem joy in the relationship with me and the other way. Putting all obligations aside or how we’re told to cultivate the relationship. Here we have this opportunity to decide on our terms. This sicha is life changing. Thank you!

    It's awesome...

    how the Rebbe has such insight to put it all together in such an understandable way rather than the back and forth, the on the one hand and then on the other hand of what the sages are saying. 😇

    Someone commented...

    These 2 tomids (constants) of realizing Hashem is there always and being b'simcha always remind me of the gemora shiur discussing the most important sentence in Torah. One said it was Shema, another said it was the beginning of the 10 (really 13-14) commandments, another said something else. The answer was that the most important sentence was "one lamb in the morning and one lamb in the evening", i.e. the constant unceasing daily routine service of Hashem
